hi everybody,
thanx for the replies..really appreciate that.Actually i am a master student. so definitely the money is a big matter for me as you all know. .i am trying to develop the instrumentation system that can be controlled from a control room to the test cell and trying to use labVIEW as my primary tool. Basically, i am seeking any expertise that can help for my programming or sharing his ideas/opinions/experiences for my current project . In my engine testing, definitely try to get data from the performance of the engine, temperature readings, pressure readings, In cylinder pressure, crank angle degree, flow rate measurements, exhaust emission, vibration readings. For the past project, they were using Dewetron to acquire the signals and interpret the data. Here i attached my instruments that currently available in my lab
No.
