Hi, I am a graduate student pursuing my masters in mechanical engineering. I have been asked to work on a project that involves automating a gas plasma surface cleaner using labview. Since i have no knowledge about electrical equipments and this is the first time i am using labview, i would need some help so that i can get started with the project. so, basically the equipment is a small box inside which surgical tools can be placed and sterilized. Once the surgical tool is placed, the door is shut manually and the glass chamber is depressurized and then injected with a hydrogen peroxide gas. Then the plasma discharge is started by switching on the equipment. It runs for about 3 minutes, and then we manually re-pressurize the chamber and open the door to take out the tool. I will have to automate this process. Please let me know how to get started in terms of integration of the equipment with labview etc and things i need to know. Also, let me know if you need more details.I could also attach a picture of the equipment if needed. Thanks, Arvind

Sure, will do. Thank you very much.! Simulations seems to be the best option for me rather than to integrate the device, due to time constraint. The forum is very helpful.!
