TC08 Stream mode with Labview 7.1

Post by Ido »

Hello,

I am trying to use a new TC08-USB unit through LabView 7.1 in the new stream mode. I have been able to use the vi provided with the unit to run it on "get single" mode. I have wrote a vi that put the unit into stream mode using the "run" function but as soon as I use the "get_temp" function to get readings LabView fail. Does anyone have a vi that can operate the unit in stream mode?

Hello,

You need to chck the channels are setup before running streaming mode.

Use LabVIEW in break mode and probe the wires for each function call. Look out for error values as returns from each of the function calls. The help manual will tell you each functions returning value.

If you are still haveing problems with your VI, please send it to us at: support@picotech.com

Best regards,

Did you solve your problem ? If so them I am very interested in the solution because I'm having the same problem, even with first setting up the channels.

Best Regards,

LB,

The attached vi will allow you to capture the data from the USB TC-08 in streaming mode. Let me know if you have any questions about using it.

Multiple usbtc08 units on the same PC

Post by Guest »

Hello, I was tasked to implement 4 usbtc08 (32 channels) on the same PC, I followed your example which allows me to do one unit, so how do I setup for 4 USBTC08 units on the same PC?

Thanks a million.
Victor.

Hi Victor

You need to call usb_tc08_open_unit for each unit. Each call should return a different handle.
