Revision as of 03:54, 13 November 2018

This page contains pictures and graphs related to DAQ 2 for EGR 103. It has been updated for Fall 2018 and Python.

Notes

  • As before, if the system seems to not recognize Dev1, try Dev2 instead.

Pauses

There are intput commands in the code which will cause the program to wait for an input - specifically when the program first runs to check the lights. You will need to hit return to un-pause the program. The way to see if the program is paused is to look in the console to see if it is waiting for an input.


Circuit for basic_aoutput

Circuit layout for BasicAOutput - You only need the left-most circuit, however

Circuit for basic_aio

Circuit layout for BasicAIO - You only need the left-most circuit, however

Circuit2.jpg

Graph from basic_aio

Graph showing output when

v_out = 2.5+2.5*npsin(2*np.pi*k/100);

That is,

\( \begin{align} V_{out}=2.5+2.5\sin\left(\frac{2\pi k}{100}\right) \end{align} \)

Graph from aio

Graph showing outputs from three measurement channels. Note at the far left that they all start at either exactly -1 V or 0 V!
