Hi Paul,
I am wondering if anyone else has tried this configuration and if so is there any guidance that they would recommend? -Matlab says that they don't support these modules. I was pretty sure when we purchased it they acted like they did. I have been unable to find any reference to this within Mathlab or the Forums. -MCC-DAQ acted like it was fairly straightforward. However, since starting this they have made it very difficult to communicate with them. I have not really found any material there either yet.
To answer your questions, please see my comments below.
There are alternative ways to interface with these devices using Matlab. One approach is to utilize the MCC-DAQ provided APIs or SDKs to communicate with the Daqhats directly from Matlab. By leveraging these APIs, you can access the functionalities of the Daqhats within your Matlab environment, enabling seamless integration with your data acquisition system.
Here is a simplified example of how you can interact with the Daqhats in Matlab using the MCC-DAQ API:
% Load the MCC-DAQ library
loadlibrary('mccdaq', 'mccdaq.h');
% Initialize the Daq device
boardNum = 0; % Specify the board number
errorCode = calllib('mccdaq', 'mccOpen', boardNum);
if errorCode == 0 disp('Daq device opened successfully'); % Perform data acquisition operations here else disp('Failed to open Daq device'); end
% Unload the library
unloadlibrary('mccdaq');
If you are experiencing difficulties in communicating with MCC-DAQ directly, exploring their documentation, knowledge base, or contacting their technical support team might provide valuable insights and solutions.
While the initial hurdles you are encountering may seem daunting, there are avenues to explore and resources to leverage in order to successfully build your data acquisition system with Raspberry Pi and Daqhats. By combining technical knowledge, community support, and perseverance, you can overcome these challenges and create a robust and efficient data acquisition setup tailored to your needs.
