how to acquire data from DSP and use it in LabVIEW?

[Illuminator]

HI ALL,

I am calibrating a hardware board and need the data to be manipulated based on the values.  A TMS320C2000 Microcontroller is used to monitor/acquire data from the board.

Now i have to use this data and calibrate using LabVIEW. How do i get this data from DSP and use it in LabVIEW?

Is it possible to push the data from DSP using UART and store it in an excel file and then open that using LabVIEW? 

Please suggest me some ideas and let me know if i am correct.

You say that the microcontroller has a UART. Just connect that to the serial port on the LabVIEW computer and read it using VISA. No need to save it to a file first. Search the examples that ship with LabVIEW for serial communications.

HI Steve,

I'll try out the solution you suggested.

Apart from using UART, I also wanted to know if there is any interface mechanism to control the Code Composer Studio(CCS) using LabVIEW so that i can control the DSP and acquire all data from CCS and use it in LabVIEW.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Start with this. It may be slightly dated
