This page contains pictures and graphs related to DAQ 2 for EGR 103. It has been updated for Fall 2019 and nidaqmx.

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.

Resource Reserved / Task Cannot Start

If you get an error that a resources is reserved or that a task can't start, clear all the variables and re-run the script. Clearing the variables should clear all reservations to the DAQ card.

Typographical Errors

  • None yet!

Circuits

  • aio_output
  • aio_meas1
  • aio_meas3 and aio_get_data

Graph from aio_meas1

Graph showing single measurement when the overall voltage is calculated with:

    v_out = 2.5 + 2.5 * np.sin(6 * np.pi * k / N)

That is,

\( \begin{align} V_{out}=2.5+2.5\sin\left(\frac{6\pi k}{N}\right) \end{align} \)

Graph from aio_meas3

Graph showing all three measurements when the overall voltage is calculated with:

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

Meas3 plot.png


Graph from aio_get_data

Graph showing all three measurements when the overall voltage is calculated with:

    v_out = 5 * (k / (N - 1))

assuming n = 300. Note at the far left that they all start at either exactly 0 V!

Codes

Here are the codes references in the assignment. Note that the extra blank spaces are in earlier programs to make room for the code added to later programs. For the second and later codes, the lines that were added or changed from the script listed immediately above it will be indicated with yellow highlighting.
