Subject: Raspberry Pi and NI 6009
Message-ID: <CACwBRu2hun+1PzE9Tks3b9metH_XnPsmM0cZw0aRAHfU1Z8KAg@mail.gmail.com>

Hello
I have a customer who does geological sample analysis, the parameters being
measured change very slowly so there is a very light demand on computing
power.

An ideal combination would be the NI 6009 14-Bit, 48 kS/s Low-Cost
Multifunction DAQ for about $400 and a Raspberry Pi for about $50.

Has anybody tried this yet?

The initial proposal is to make a kind of PLC system where the user can
insert his logic (probably written in Python) into hooks in the control
cycle so that it can use the analog and digital IO programmed
professionally and the user's particular logic to achieve his goals.

I understand that despite much encouragement no versions of LV are
available for this device? Oddly enough the LEGO RCX from many years ago
runs LV very well. The newer NXT's can even do Sound recognition in the LV
derivative that runs on them.

Best Wishes
John
