Hi, I'm not familiar with
Hi,
I'm not familiar with the labjack codes, but I do have a code for reading encoders and controlling motors using a UE9. However, I will not have access to the UE9 anymore, so I need to buy a new labjack. I'm wondering if the code will be portable across all labjacks, including the new T7? Or will I have to re-code to do the same job whenever I change labjacks? I do realize that the port numbers are all different, so I think changing port numbers is expected. I'm referring more to whether the syntax to get and set values will be different. Thanks!
I am connecting a LJTick-DAC
I am connecting a LJTick-DAC to a U6-pro.
How can I set the DACA and DACB with the python U6 class?
You need to use I2C
You need to use I2C communications (i2c method in the U6 class) to read the calibration constants from the LJTick-DAC and set its DACs. Refer to the LJTick-DAC example:
https://github.com/labjack/LabJackPython/blob/master/Examples/LJTickDAC/...
To simplify the example which is a GUI based app, the "getCalConstants" method reads the LJTick-DAC's calibration constants and the "updateDevice" method applies the calibration constants and sets the LJTick-DAC's DACs. DIOA and DIOB on the LJTick-DAC are the SCL and SDA. So if DIOA/DIOB are connected to FIO2/FIO3 for example, in the i2c method set SCLPinNum = 2 and SDAPinNum = 3.
For more LJTick-DAC information refer to its datasheet:
http://labjack.com/support/ljtick-dac/datasheet
