Antoine Chalons Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Hi all, I saw this article on NI knowledge base dealing with how to get the PXI controller's internal temperature but it is restricted to a 819x and 818x controllers. I have a PXI 8106 and I'd like to monitor it's temperature to be able to disable some intense processing when it gets over a certain value. How to get that in LabVIEW 8.5 :question: Also, I noticed that MAX shows the current temperature for each DAQmx board plugged in the PXI chassis - and yes the temperatures of 2 boards are different - so I guess there will be a way to monitor each DAQmx device's temperature from LabVIEW. Anyone knows how to do that :question: Cross posted Quote Link to comment
Karissap Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 The internal temperature of some DAQmx devices can be accessed using the board temperature internal channel or by using the calibration info property node.
