This will be part of a bigger system. I'm not sure the PCI DAQ cards are capable of supplying 12VDC. Do I use the analog output? That's only 10 volts max on the cards. Here's one of the cards I was looking at. http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/201612 QUOTE(ashishuttarwar @ Jan 21 2008, 11:59 AM)

QUOTE(Tim_S @ Jan 20 2008, 06:00 AM) So it look like I'm going to need to splice a cable to make this work. I have found some PCI DAQ cards that I think will work, including NI ones. Does anyone know a card that would supply the power (12VDC) or do I have to supply that separately?

I have a solenoid valve with a 9 pin D connector. Power is 12VDC, another pin is digital (TTL), another is analog (0-5VDC). I would like to to use Labview to create a program to manipulate this valve. Has anyone gone through this before? Can someone recommend a reasonable controller that labview has drivers for? Ideal scenario would be a pci card. My searches haven't been successful and this isn't yet my expertise. -TIA
