How to setting channel of PCI 6024E using with LabVIEW 7

[bkk]

Now I have connected PCI 6024E + installed driver and installed LabVIEW 7 but I don't know

How to setting channel (DAQ) PCI 6024E using with LabVIEW 7. For example I want to use AO1 (Analog Output channel 1) to generate

the signals but I don't know how to send the signals out from AO1 of PCI 6024E.

Hi,

First , read the user manual of PCI 6024 and get an understanding of your DAQ card's capabilities, its Device pinouts for location of AI and AO channels on the terminal block

The best way to start would be choosing a suitable program from labview examples.

For traditional daq examples, Go to LabView Example Finder : Hardware Input and Output >> traditional daq>> Analog output folder,  and choose a relevant VI,

For daqmx examples, Go to LabView Example Finder : Hardware Input and Output >>DAQmx>> analog generation>> voltage folder,  and choose a relevant VI

Read its documentation and use it for generating signals.

Any doubts, do get back

Hope this helps

Regards

Dev

I have tried your step. But it cann't run, it has some error about DAQ IN and DAQ out. I think becuase of driver for PCI 6024E that I have installed it don't work with LabVIEW 7 ? Can you help me ?

Try uninstalling 6.9.2 and installing a higher DAQ version of NIDAQ7.0 or above.

Hello Bkk,

You can check if your NI PCI-6024 and NI-DAQmx driver are installed correctly through Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).  Open up MAX, and see if you can find your card under My System >> Devices and Interfaces >> NI-DAQmx Devices.  If your card shows up here, then it is probably installed properly.  You can run a Self Test, or actually write analog output from the card using the Test Panels.  I would also recommend running the DAQ Diagnostic Utility to test the operation of your card.

You said in your post that you were worried about the compatibility of your driver with LabVIEW 7.  All versions of the NI-DAQmx driver are supported under LabVIEW 7.x.  Traditional NI-DAQ 7.0 and later are supported in LabVIEW 7.x.  I would recommend downloading and installing the newest version of NI-DAQmx.
