Good afternoon,

I'm having some trouble updating some old NI interfacing code (for a PCI-6115) to the new session based interface in 2011b.

Here's the basic idea: I'd like to run my DAQ board like an oscilloscope, so I set it to passively scan, wait until my signal passes some threshold value, and then record a sample for X length of time (or NUMBEROFSAMPLES number of samples).

I've read through http://www.mathworks.com/products/daq/demos.html?file=/products/demos/shipping/daq/demo_compactdaq_background_acquisition.html and that's given me the basic idea of what needs to be done, but I'm still having trouble getting my code to work properly.

Here's my code %Initial routines for creating the daq session and initializing the channels (device = daq.createSession('ni'), etc.) % thresh = 2; % 2V threshhold value

device.NotifyWhenDataAvailableExceeds = NUMBEROFSAMPLES;
lh = device.addlistener('DataAvailable', @(src, event) stopwhenpassthresh(src, event, thresh));
device.IsContinuous = true;
device.startBackground;
function stopwhenpassthresh(src, event, thresh)
   if any(event.Data > thresh)
       disp('Triggered') 
       src.stop;
   end
end

Some questions that I have: - How do I pull event.Data and event.TimeStamps out from the stopwhenpassthresh function into something I can process? - If it was at all possible, I'd like to be able to tell my code that when we pass the threshhold value, it should take one extra run of data (and then I can lop off the extra data afterwards). It'd also be nice if I could get a bit more control over the pre-trigger data as well.

Thank you for your help, Paul

This may be of help! I proposed 3 different methods, chose whats best in your case: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/6258-thread-subject-nidaq-continuous-and-background-acquisition

As best I can tell, this works! I'm using Walter's approach of a circular array (so I don't overload any memory) so I'm using a global counter as well. It's kind of a kludge (still awaiting input from Mathworks about 2012a's trigger routines) but until things go horribly wrong, I'm happy with it. Thanks!

Use the same data sharing techniques as for graphic callbacks; see http://matlab.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ#How_can_I_share_data_between_callback_functions_in_my_GUI.3F

Good morning,

I think I understand how to do the circular queue (have a counter loop 1 to 3 and back again, and write the output to the appropriate third of an array), though I'm unclear how I'd be able to expand the scope of anything nested to the appropriate level. Every time I've tried to get my referenced function in the addlistener routine to output something (so any changes are not restricted to the scope of that function) this have not worked properly.

A rough idea I'd have would be

Kill the function in the listener that stops the DAQ board when we pass the threshold

numscans = NUMBEROFSCANSPERDATAAVAILABLE;

thresh = DESIREDTHRESHHOLDVOLTAGE;

breakflag = 0;

onemore = 0;

counter = 0;

trialarray.t = zeros(1, 3*numscans);

trialarray.V = zeros(NUMBEROFCHANNELS, numscans*3);

lh = addlistener('DataAvailable', @(src, event) stopwhenpassthresh(src event thresh));

device.startBackground;

while breakflag == 0

realcounter = mod(counter,3);

testt = getappdata(lh, event.TimeStamp));

testV = getappdata(lh, event.Data));

if testt(1) ~= trialarray.t(realcounter*numscans+1)

% Checking to see if we already pulled this data

trialarray.t((realcounter*numscans+1):((realcounter+1)*numscans)) = testt;

trialarray.V(:,(realcounter*numscans+1):((realcounter+1)*numscans)) = testV;

counter = counter + 1;

if onemore == 1 %Letting me take one more data run

breakflag = 1;

end

if any(testV>thresh)

onemore = 1

end

Is this what you were thinking about?

Much appreciated,

Paul

Argh. Oh well, is the routine I wrote above what you had in mind?

Sorry, I will look at it more closely when I have time.
