DAQ sensor simulator, help please?

Hi everyone

I have recently got a new DAQ (data acquisition card) and would like to try it out, however I am not very strong with electronics, so how can I simulate a sensor (pressure sensor, temp. sensor, magnetic sensor… etc.)?

I know that I have to build my own electronic circuit and take out the sensor feedback signal and put it to the DAQ board. Does anyone have a circuit design where sensors are used which I can build and use?

I know it’s a pretty stupid question but I have left electronics for a long time and don’t seem to remember how to get back to it,

I would greatly appreciate if someone could help me or guide me if I am not in the right lines.

Kind regards

If your data acquisition devices also has Analog Outputs you could simply connect them to the Input channels and simulate your sensor data in software.
