USE OF FOR LOOP

EXPT NO: 1-A DATE: 30-07-2010 AIM To create a VI to increment the frequency of the sine wave up to 10Hz using FOR Loop. SOFTWARE USED LabVIEW software THEORY A FOR loop executes a sub diagram a set of number of times. The value in the count terminal indicates how many times to repeat the sub diagram. Set the count explicitly by wiring a value from outside the loop to the left side or top side of the count terminal or set the count implicitly with auto-indexing. The iteration terminal contains the number of completed iterations. The iteration count always starts at zero. During the first iteration, the iteration terminal returns to zero. Both the iteration and count terminals are signed long integers. If you wire a floating point number to the count terminal, Lab VIEW rounds it within the range. If you wire zero or a negative to the count terminal, the loop does not execute. Add shift registers to the FOR loop to pass data from the current iterations to the next iteration.

USE OF WHILE LOOP

EXPT NO: 1-B DATE : 30-07-2010 AIM To create a VI to work as a signal generator using WHILE Loop. SOFTWARE USED LabVIEW software. THEORY A WHILE Loop executes a sub program until a condition is met. The default behavior and appearance of the conditional terminal is continuing if true. When a conditional terminal is continuing if true, the WHILE Loop executes its sub program until the conditional terminal receives a true value. Because the VI checks conditional terminal at the end of each iteration, the WHILE Loop always executes at least one time. The iteration terminal contains the number of completed iterations. The iteration count always starts at zero. PROCEDURE Open a blank VI. Front Panel Select wave form graph from Controls >> Graphical Indicators >> Waveform Graph.

USE OF CASE STRUCTURE

EXPT NO: 2-A DATE AIM To create a VI to enter some data using strings on front panel and use control switch to erase the data by using case structure. SOFTWARE REQUIRED LabVIEW Software. THEORY Case structure has one or more sub diagrams or cases exactly one of which executes when the structure executes. The value wired to the selected terminal determines which case to execute and can be Boolean, string, integer or enumerated type. Right click the structure border to add or deleted cases. Uses the labeling tool to enter value in the case selector label and configure the value handled by each case. The case selector identifier at the top of case structure contains the case selector identifier in the centre and decrement and increment buttons on each side. Use the decrement and decrement buttons to scroll through the available cases. If Boolean is wired to the selector terminal, the structure has a TRUE case and a FALSE case. If an integer, string or enumerated type values are wired to the selector terminal, the structure can have up to 2^31 1 cases. Right click the case structure border to add, duplicate, remove or rearrange cases and to select a default case. PROCEDURE Open a blank VI.

USE OF FLAT SEQUENCE STRUCTURE

EXPT NO: 2-B DATE : 06-08-2010 AIM To create a VI for controlling automatic tank level using flat sequence structure in Lab VIEW. SOFTWARE USED LabVIEW software. THEORY The Flat Sequence structure contains multiple sub diagrams or frames, which execute in sequential order. A sequence structure executes frame 0, then frame 1, then frame 2, until the last frame executes. Frames in a Flat Sequence structure execute in order and when all data wired to the frame is available. The data leave each frame as the frame finishes executing. The Flat Sequence structure is used to avoid using sequence locals and to better document the block diagram. Use the flat sequence structure to control the execution order when natural data dependency does not exist. A node that receives data from another node depends on the other node for data and always executes after the other node completes execution. Within each frame of a sequence structure, as in the rest of the block diagram, data dependency determines the execution order of nodes. PROCEDURE Open a blank VI.

USE OF STACK SEQUENCE

EXPT NO: 2-C DATE : 06-08-2010 AIM To create a VI for simulating a traffic light display using stack sequence in Lab VIEW. SOFTWARE USED LabVIEW software. THEORY The Stacked Sequence contains multiple sub diagrams, or frames, which execute in sequential order. A Stacked sequence structure executes frame 0, then frame 1, then frame 2, until the last frame executes. It does not complete execution or return any data until the last frame executes. It can be used to conserve space on the block diagram. The structure selector label is at the top of the Stacked Sequence structure, it contains the current frame number and range of frames in the center and decrement and increment arrow buttons on each side.

The tunnels of Stacked Sequence structures can have only one data source, unlike Case structures. The output can emit from any frame, but data leave the Stacked Sequence structure only when all frames complete execution, not when the individual frames complete execution.

USE OF ARRAYS
EXPT NO: 3-A DATE AIM To understand the use of array functions to create and manipulate arrays. SOFTWARE USED LabVIEW Software THEORY An array is used to store a set of elements. Array can be a n-dimensional array of any type. Arrays can be created in 3 ways. 1) Use for loop 2) Using initialized array 3) Using build array Initialize array: Create an n-dimensional array in which every element is initialized to the value of element. Build array: concatenates multiple arrays or appends elements to a n-dimensional array. All inputs must have the same base type. Appended array is the resultant array. Array size: Returns the number of elements in each dimension of array. Index array: Returns the element or sub array of n-dimension array at index. Index 0.n-1 must be numeric. Array subset: Returns a portion of array starting at index and containing length elements. Rotate ID array: Rotates the element of the array the number of places and in the direction indicated by n. Reverse ID array: Reverse the order of the elements in array.

USE OF CLUSTER
EXPT NO: 3-B DATE AIM To study the use of Clusters in LabVIEW. SOFTWARE REQUIRED LabVIEW Software. THEORY Clusters group data elements of mixed types, such as a bundle of wires, as in a telephone cable, where each wire in the cable represents a different element of the cluster. A cluster is a similar to a record or a structure in text based programming languages. Bundling several data elements into clusters eliminates wire cutter on the block diagram and reduces the number of connector panel terminals that Sub Vis need. The connecter panel has at most 28 terminals. If a front panel contains more than 28 controls and indicators that you want to use programmatically, group some of them into a cluster and assign the cluster to a terminal on the connector panel. Like an array, a cluster is either a control or an indicator. A cluster cannot contain a mixture of controls and indicators. Although cluster and array elements are both ordered, you must unbundle all cluster elements at once rather than index one element at a time. You also can use the unbundle by name function to access specific cluster elements. PROCEDURE Open a blank VI. Front Panel Select all controls >> array and cluster >> cluster and place it in the Front panel.

USE OF SUB VI
EXPT NO: 4-A DATE: 20-08-2010

AIM To understand the use of creating subVIs and VIs. SOFTWARE USED LabVIEW software. THEORY The power of LabVIEW lies in the hierarchical nature of the VI. After we create a VI, we can use it on the block diagram of another VI. There is no limit on the number of layers in the hierarchy. Using modular programming helps us manage changes and debug the block diagram quickly. A VI within another VI is called a subVI. A subVI corresponds to a subroutine in text-based programming languages. When we double-click a subVI, a front panel and block diagram appear, rather than a dialog box in which we can configure options. The front panel includes controls and indicators that might look familiar. The block diagram includes wires, front panel icons, functions, possibly subVIs, and other LabVIEW objects that also might look familiar. Every VI displays an icon in the upper right corner of the front panel and block diagram windows. An icon is a graphical representation of a VI. It may contain text, images or a combination of both. If we use VI as a subVI the icon identifies the subVI or the block diagram of the VI. Creating An Icon Right click the icon in the upper right corner at the front panel or block diagram. Select edit icon from the short cut menu to display the icon editor dialog box. Use the tools on the left side of the icon editor dialog box to create the icon design in the editing area.

22

Connector Pane We also need to build a connector pane to use VI as a subVI. The connector pane is a set of terminals that corresponds to control and indicators of that VI, similar to the parameter lst of function call in text based programming languages. The connector pane defines inputs and outputs that you can wire to the VI so we can use as a subVI. The connector pane receives data at input terminals and passes the data to block diagram code to the front panel controls or receives the results at its output terminals from the front panel indicators. Placing Sub VI After we built VI and creates icon and connect pane we can use the vi in another VI. The VI use of another VI is called a sub VI. A sub VI mode corresponds to the subroutine call in the text based programming language. PROCEDURE Open a blank VI. Front Panel SUB VI Select controls >> numeric indicator >> thermometer display the rise in temperature Select controls >> numeric controls>>to give temperature in degree Celsius

Block Diagram F = C*9/5+32 F - Temperature in Fahrenheit C - Temperature in degree Celsius Select all functions >> numeric >> multipliers to multiply the input value with constant 9/5.

TWO BUTTON DIALOG BOX

EXPT NO: 5 DATE: 27-08-2010

AIM To create a VI that rolls two dice. If we roll a 7 then the light indicator comes and saying that You Win. If anything else other than 7 we have an indicator pop up You Lose. Use a Boolean Stop button, so that program knows when we are done playing. Use Boolean Roll button to roll the dice again. SOFTWARE USED LabVIEW software. THEORY Two dice are rolled. A dice shows number from 1-6. In order to get a number from 1-6, random number between 0-5 is generated, and scaled to 1-6. The dice is rolled and say that the number after 20th roll is taken. The sum of numbers show on two dice is compared with 7 and indicator glows showing Win or lose. Simultaneously it should ask for rolling again. This is achieved by using a two button dialog box. The two button display box displays a dialog box that contains a memory and two buttons. It has three inputs. a) Message: it is the text to display in the dialog box. b) T Button Name: it is the name displayed on the dialog box. c) F Button Name: it returns a value of True if you check the dialog box button named T Button name. If you click the dialog box button named F. T Button returns a value of FALSE. If we are selecting false condition, again it will ask for stop or not. PROCEDURE Open a blank VI.

AMPLITUDE MEASUREMENT
EXPT NO: 6 DATE: 17-09-2010

AIM To create a VI for displaying amplitude measurement using LabVIEW. SOFTWARE USED LabVIEW software. THEORY The Signal Measurement deals with accepting an input signal of a single waveform or an array of waveforms and measures the transition duration (rise or fall time), slew rate of a selected positive or negative transition in each waveform. Using VI we also are measuring the amplitude, high level, low level period, pulse duration of the input signal. Amplitude is the objective measurement of the degree of change of the wave. Reference levels specify the high and low reference levels required to determine the transition interval. Mid reference level is not used in transition measurements. Reference levels provide a means to identify the position in time of the waveform feature measured. High reference level specifies high reference level of the waveform present (default) or absolute units. A rising high level crossing defines the end of a raising transition and a falling high reference level defines the beginning of a falling transition. Mid reference level specifies the middle reference level in percent (default) or absolute unite. Low reference level specifies the low reference level of the waveform in percent (default) or absolute units. A rising low reference level crossing defines the beginning of a rising transition and a falling low reference level crossing defines the end of a falling transition. PROCEDURE Open a blank VI.

INTRODUCTION OF SPEEDY 33
EXPT NO: 7 DATE: 18-09-2010

AIM To familiarize the DSP kit by doing an example using SPEEDY-33 and to implement an equalizer. SOFTWARE USED LabVIEW 7.1embedded Software THEORY Frequency is the number of vibrations or oscillations second, which is measured in cycles per seconds or Hertz. It is said that the human ear can perceive a range of sound frequencies from 20 Hertz (twenty cycles per second) to 20 kilohertz (twenty thousand cycles per second), but of course, that does not apply to all of us. Audio equalizers allow you to adjust levels at set of points in a range of frequencies.

Each set of point is called a band and the more bands available for adjustment within a frequency range, the more precise the audible adjustments become. Many digital audio playing programs include an equalizer with anything from two bands, such as treble and bass sliders, up to over 100 bands each adjusting a certain frequency and surrounding frequencies.

A better way is to divide the audible spectrum into five or more frequency bands, and allow adjustments to each band via its own boost/cut control. Instead of broad adjustments of treble, bass, and maybe the midrange, one has independent control over the low bass, mid-bass, high bass, low midrange, and so forth. The gain of a frequency can be boosted (an increase in gain of a frequency) or cut (reduction in gain of a frequency) by decibels (dB), increasing or decreasing the volume, noise or intensity of that frequency. In this way it is possible to target certain frequencies in a range to improve (or distort) the sound.

STEPPER MOTOR
EXPT NO: 8 DATE: 24-09-2010

AIM To design and operate a stepper motor drive circuit in VI using LabVIEW. SOFTWARE USED LabVIEW Software with DAQ. THEORY Stepper motors operate differently from DC brush motors, which rotate when voltage is applied to their terminals. Stepper motors, on the other hand, effectively have multiple "toothed" electromagnets arranged around a central gear-shaped piece of iron. The electromagnets are energized by an external control circuit, such as a micro controller. To make the motor shaft turn, first one electromagnet is given power, which makes the gear's teeth magnetically attracted to the electromagnet's teeth. When the gear's teeth are thus aligned to the first electromagnet, they are slightly offset from the next electromagnet. So when the next electromagnet is turned on and the first is turned off, the gear rotates slightly to align with the next one, and from there the process is repeated. Each of those slight rotations is called a "step," with an integer number of steps making a full rotation. In that way, the motor can be turned by a precise angle. PROCEDURE Open a blank VI.

OBSERVATION Depending upon the type of filter, observe the amplitude variation in oscilloscope by changing the frequency in the Function Generator. Here, we are using a Band Pass Filter having band of frequencies between 50 Hz and 100 Hz. From the oscilloscope, we can observe that the amplitude increases up to 50 Hz and then remains constant till 100 Hz and then decreases. Gain and Phase Plot is observed from the Bode Plot. RESULT Thus a second order Butterworth Band Pass Filter is designed and the output is observed using NI ELVIS.

SIMULATION OF TANK PROCESS

EXPT NO: 10 DATE: 22-10-2010

AIM To obtain a level control of a tank with temperature as the manipulated variable with DAQ in VI. SOFTWARE USED LabVIEW software with DAQ. THEORY The DAQ assistant bundled with NI-DAQ provides a step-by-step dialogue guide for configuring, testing and programming measurement tasks we can automatically generate code for low level customization. Along with other configuration based Vis in LabVIEW, the DAQ assistant makes it easier and faster to develop data acquisition. Measurement & Automation Explorer, bundled with NI-DAQ simplifies the configuration of the measurement hardware. We can quickly detect and configure all hard ware and verify its operations with interactive test panels. We can also view the date of the last external device calibration and perform the internal self calibration. With NI-DAQ, we can choose from 22 preconfigured measurement ready virtual channels including voltage, strain, current, output, pulse width and digital port output. We can configure these virtual channels in the units you actually want to measure and let NI-DAQ figure out how to configure your DAQ and signal conditioning device to take the measurements. The DAQ assistant bundled with NI-DAQ provides a step by step dialogue guide for configuring testing and programming measurement tasks and channels.
