I am trying to measure magnetostrictive strain as a function of applied DC magnetic field. For this, I am using NI9237 module sitting on a chassis for strain measurement, and a lakeshore 425 gaussmeter for magnetic field strength measurement. My intention is to automate the module and gaussmeter using LabVIEW (version 2016/ Windows 10 OS), but did not progress much. I can measure strain using the DAQ Assist VI and magnetic field strength by its instrument drive downloaded from ni.com/idnet. Although I can do both tasks individually, I am not getting any idea how to use both instruments in single task to measure the strain vs field curve. Examples/help or a ready to use VI file on it are highly appreciated.
Dear Dr. Bipul Deka ,
Look at this discussion https://www.researchgate.net/post/How_to_synchronize_different_National_Instruments_DAQs_in_the_same_routine_in_LabView. Maybe you will find it helpful. In my anwer (the last one) I attached a file demonstrating measurement of a capacitance-voltage characteristics. I apologise if your task is completely different from the task solved at the mentioned discussion.
Sincerely,
Dmitrii
I have downloaded and installed the driver for lakeshore 425 gaussmeter. The gaussmeter utilizes "traditional" LabVIEW blocks to be configured and to measure. Thus, I believe the task you solve does not significantly differ from the task solved at the discussion I mentioned above. The main idea, as I suppose, to synchronize both measurements
