Data sources are hardware devices that your application uses to perform input/output (I/O) operations and/or it can be a software component, such as the Melting Pot, that outputs a data stream. To set up a data source, simply drag-and-drop one or more components onto your form and configure the property pages for the particular device. When you configure the property pages of a device, you set up the parameters of your I/O operations, such as the number of channels you want to acquire and the number of values to save in each data buffer.

Data acquisition components provide an interface to the analog I/O and digital I/O devices, quadrature encoders, real-time streaming devices, counter/timers, etc. To control the actions of your application based on real world conditions, you can use Application Control and/or Application Flow components. For example, you can connect a Control Button to the Start/Stop action of an Analog Input component to Start/Stop data acquisition during run time.or you might want to react to a specific event using the Event Trap component. For example, you can use an Event Trap to write data to disk whenever an Analog Input component starts sampling. Data acquisition components Interface with any Data Translation hardware to perform data acquisition functions: Analog IO, Counter- Timers, Digital IO, Real-Time Streaming, Synchronization Instrument Socket Component Make a TCP/IP, GPIB, VXI, ASRL, or USB connection to any instrument that supports SCPI commands over VISA. Use this component in conjunction with the VISA Script component to send commands to instruments on your system. VISA Script Component Send SCPI commands to any instrument on your network that supports VISA connections. Configure an Instrument Socket Component to establish a connection to the instrument and then use the VISA Script Component to program the instrument. Using the VISA Script Component, Measure Foundry provides a property page that lets you enter and test a VISA script. A script can consist of more than one line and contain conditional loops and branches. You can create a script using the available VISA functions provided in the Foundry window. Simply drag and drop a function from the Foundry window to the appropriate place in the Script window. Once the script is created it can be checked by opening the Script validation dialog box. Any errors in the Script are reported back to the user. Analyze Data Processing components Process Component allows you to execute a sequence of processes in a desired order, allowing events traps, delays, and wait period as needed for your test and measurement requirements Decimation Filter lets you reduce the amount of data in your data buffer while retaining the form of your input signal Thermocouple Linearization and Two-Point Scaling components Spectral Analysis component performs FFT operations Melting Pot component provides the flexibility of text based programming to the graphical programming environment. The Melting Pot offers hundreds of math operations and functions Digital filter components including: Bessel, Butterworth, Chebyshev 1, Chebyshev 2, and Elliptic Third Party link with MATLAB & Excel Support Analyze your data with your MATLAB software using the Melting Pot component. Send data using the PutVector command, receive data using the GetVector command, and process the data using all MATLAB functions. The Melting Pot component provides an integrated test bed to access all the functions of MATLAB, including its numerical computation, scientific graphics, and signal processing capabilities. If you prefer Microsoft Excel, you can send data directly to an Excel spreadsheet as it is acquired, using the Excel Live Link component. This component allows you to quickly and easily log, graph, and save data in a standard Excel spreadsheet. Since this link is dynamic, you can watch your Excel spreadsheet update as new values are acquired. Display Data Display components, such as Oscilloscope, Bar Graph, Gauge, Chart Recorder, Digital Display, Label, and LEDs are provided to display the results of your measurements. In addition to panning and zooming, many of these components also provide the ability to adjust the range and scale of the y-axis, print the displayed results, freeze the current display, and save the result to a file. Simply link the display component to the data source whose results you want to see (using property pages), then start the operation to see the results of your measurement.
