remote control of a vi

[divyakarthikeyanmit@rediffmail.com]

hi

 i am using a 6023E DAQ. is it possible to store the values that my daq s continuously acquiring onto some file(i.e. if i run the vi continuously data at every instant must be saved onto the file) .??

also is it possible to execute my vi from a remote panel by accessing the data that has been logged from my DAQ card onto some file.????(i.e. i want the run time engine to execute the vi by taking into account the values from the data logged in the file rather than using it from my DAQ as it acquires data)?? kindly respond

Yes, you can do both.

- There are loads of File I/O examples in the Example Finder. Have you had the chance to look through them? You should also have a look at the Producer/Consumer Design Patter template (File -> New..)

- You can definitely do that. You can just program the VI to behave in whatever way you want.

Be sure to post some code to give us a good idea of what you have attempted so far. LabVIEW developers on this forum are more likely to help, if they can see what you have done.

thank you! when we tried to write onto a file from a vi that was running continuously every time the file was being replaced. we did not get a list of all values that were output.we would like to know if all values from a continuously running vi would get saved on the same file to be used as a database?? pls respond

If you don't want the file replaced, set the file options to append data.

If you want more details, you need to provide some more information such as what file write functions you are using. Attaching your code would be best.
