/* UL call demonstrated: ulAIn() Purpose: Reads the user-specified A/D input channels Demonstration: Displays the analog input data for each of the user-specified channels using the first supported range and input mode Steps: 1. Call ulGetDaqDeviceInventory() to get the list of available DAQ devices 2. Call ulCreateDaqDevice() to to get a handle for the first DAQ device 3. Verify the DAQ device has an analog input subsystem 4. Call ulConnectDaqDevice() to establish a UL connection to the DAQ device 5. Get the first supported analog range 6. Call ulAIn() for each channel specified to read a value from the A/D input channel 7. Display the data for each channel 8. Call ulDisconnectDaqDevice() and ulReleaseDaqDevice() before exiting the process. */ #include #include #include "uldaq.h" #include "utility.h" #define MAX_DEV_COUNT 100 #define MAX_STR_LENGTH 64 int main(void) { int descriptorIndex = 0; DaqDeviceDescriptor devDescriptors[MAX_DEV_COUNT]; DaqDeviceInterface interfaceType = ANY_IFC; DaqDeviceHandle daqDeviceHandle = 0; unsigned int numDevs = MAX_DEV_COUNT; // set some variables used to acquire data int lowChan = 0; int highChan = 3; int chan = 0; AiInputMode inputMode; Range range; AInFlag flags = AIN_FF_DEFAULT; int hasAI = 0; int numberOfChannels = 0; char inputModeStr[MAX_STR_LENGTH]; char rangeStr[MAX_STR_LENGTH]; int i = 0; double data = 0; UlError err = ERR_NO_ERROR; int __attribute__((unused)) ret; char c; // Get descriptors for all of the available DAQ devices err = ulGetDaqDeviceInventory(interfaceType, devDescriptors, &numDevs); if (err != ERR_NO_ERROR) goto end; // verify at least one DAQ device is detected if (numDevs == 0) { printf("No DAQ device is detected\n"); goto end; } printf("Found %d DAQ device(s)\n", numDevs); for (i = 0; i < (int) numDevs; i++) printf(" %s: (%s)\n", devDescriptors[i].productName, devDescriptors[i].uniqueId); // get a handle to the DAQ device associated with the first descriptor daqDeviceHandle = ulCreateDaqDevice(devDescriptors[descriptorIndex]); if (daqDeviceHandle == 0) { printf ("\nUnable to create a handle to the specified DAQ device\n"); goto end; } // verify the specified DAQ device supports analog input err = getDevInfoHasAi(daqDeviceHandle, &hasAI); if (!hasAI) { printf("\nThe specified DAQ device does not support analog input\n"); goto end; } printf("\nConnecting to device %s - please wait ...\n", devDescriptors[descriptorIndex].devString); // establish a connection to the DAQ device err = ulConnectDaqDevice(daqDeviceHandle); if (err != ERR_NO_ERROR) goto end; // get the first supported analog input mode err = getAiInfoFirstSupportedInputMode(daqDeviceHandle, &numberOfChannels, &inputMode, inputModeStr); if (highChan >= numberOfChannels) highChan = numberOfChannels - 1; // get the first supported analog input range err = getAiInfoFirstSupportedRange(daqDeviceHandle, inputMode, &range, rangeStr); printf("\n%s ready\n", devDescriptors[descriptorIndex].devString); printf(" Function demonstrated: ulAIn()\n"); printf(" Channels: %d - %d\n", lowChan, highChan); printf(" Input mode: %s\n", inputModeStr); printf(" Range: %s\n", rangeStr); printf("\nHit ENTER to continue\n"); ret = scanf("%c", &c); ret = system("clear"); while(err == ERR_NO_ERROR && !enter_press()) { // reset the cursor to the top of the display and // show the termination message resetCursor(); printf("Hit 'Enter' to terminate the process\n\n"); // display data for the first 4 analog input channels for (chan = lowChan; chan <= highChan; chan++) { err = ulAIn(daqDeviceHandle, chan, inputMode, range, flags, &data); if(err == ERR_NO_ERROR) printf("Channel(%d) Data: %10.6f\n", chan, data); } usleep(100000); } // disconnect from the DAQ device ulDisconnectDaqDevice(daqDeviceHandle); end: // release the handle to the DAQ device if(daqDeviceHandle) ulReleaseDaqDevice(daqDeviceHandle); if(err != ERR_NO_ERROR) { char errMsg[ERR_MSG_LEN]; ulGetErrMsg(err, errMsg); printf("Error Code: %d \n", err); printf("Error Message: %s \n", errMsg); } return 0; }
