MHDlab labview library
A library of labview programs for the data aquisition equipment in the MHD Lab at NETL. There is a VI corresponding to each instrument that can be run independently, or called alongside other VIs by a 'main' master program. The main VI programatically calls the instrument VIs and synchronizes their outputs into a TDMS format file.
Here is a onenote notebook documenting the library:
These are the instruments being recorded:
Aquires data from Oceanoptics Flame and NIR-512 spectrometers as well as switching a OceanOptics Multiplexer
Controls a Galil 4-axis PLC motor system
Aquires data from the data from Ophir pulse energy meters
Aquires data from a NI PXI system (VI is generalized for any DAQmx tast) and Alicat flow meters
Aqires data from Keithley 2812 and 6221 pair
Operate PI-max4 cameras and ISOplane spectrograph by controlling Lightfield through Labview.
Use labview to process images for data analysis.
