cRIO LVDT 9312 Module

Technical Description

Issue

05

24/05/2022

Example project data signal definitions

The example project modules can be copied to a new project. Alternatively, when the automatic LabVIEW module

detection mechanism “Discover C

-

Series Modules” is used, attention on identifier assignment should be paid to

avoid naming conflicts
Three example files are included to demonstrate the driver-VI application:

Tree example programmes for the R-Series Expansion Chassis and cRIO-Chassis

•

SET_LVDT_9312_Example_Slot_1.vi

Program example which demonstrates the application of a single LVDT9312 module connected to slot 1 of a (PCI)
FPGA R-Series Expansion-Chassis or a cRIO-Chassis.

•

SET_LVDT_9312_Example_Slot_1-4.vi

Program example which demonstrates the application of four LVDT9312 modules connected to a (PCI) FPGA R-
Series Expansion-Chassis or a cRIO-Chassis.

•

SET_LVDT_9312_Example_Slot_1-8.vi

Program example which demonstrates the application of eight LVDT9312 modules connected to a cRIO-Chassis.
