Virtual Bench VI with other hardware?

[Gregory88]

Hey, hope someone can help me...

i tryed to use a VI from NI:

http://www.ni.com/example/52073/de/

but i have´nt the required hardware. i thought i can use it with my NI scb68a.

Question one, is this possible?

And Question two: can you tell my how i can "freeze" or pause continously measured real time signals, produced with a Mems sensor (...to do a fft-analysis) ?

i tried to create my own oszi and i have the idea to do it with a trigger, but always when pushing the trigger, my signal gets lost!?!?!? o.O

1. The SCB-68A is not a device.  It is just a connector box for using discrete wires.

2. The VirtualBench VIs are only for the VirtualBench.  What you are asking is like trying to use a serial port driver to run a monitor.

3.  If you have a SCB-68A, it is very likely you have a DAQ from NI.  This means you should be using DAQmx.  And those drivers will likely answer your last question since you read snapshots during the acquisition.
