Above Threshold Warning of Temperature Data
Experiment #6 from Hands-On Introduction to NI LabVIEW™ with Vernier
- Subject
- Engineering
Introduction
In the following exercise, you will create a program using the Analog Express VI that records temperature data. The code will allow the user to display the data in Celsius or Fahrenheit units. In addition, a threshold value is compared to the temperature measurement and a message is displayed to alert the user when the temperature is above the threshold.
Objectives
In this exercise, you will
- Create a LabVIEW VI to collect temperature data.
- Become familiar with an Enumerated control.
- Warn the user when the temperature is above a threshold value.
- Incorporate code that makes decisions based on user input and numeric comparison.
Sensors and Equipment
This experiment features the following sensors and equipment. Additional equipment may be required.
