Good day
I am to write a code that will read data from two NI 9237 modules (6 channels in total). the modules are to read data from a force balance (strain due to force).
I know its not a matlab community but I could get help, how do I convert strain result to force using a loadcell of specification stated below and the NI 9237. being specific, I need the coefficient to convert strain value given by the daq to force.
Load Cell: STA-7 Aluminum Alloy S Type Low Range Tension/Compression Load Cell
Rated load (kg) 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50
Ultimate breaking load 300% of rated load
Maximum transverse load <50% of rated load
Output/ Sensitivity 2mV/V (±0.1%)
Zero balance <±1% of rated load
Excitation voltage 10vdc recommended, 15vdc maximum
ch6.BridgeMode = 'Full';
ch6.ExcitationVoltage = 10;
ch6.NominalBridgeResistance = 350;
