Digital output doesn't work


g.martinez

Question

I have an USB-TC device. I want to configure the DIO to turn on and turn off some components but when I tried whith the next LabVIEW code the device didn't change the state.

I tried the software DAQami for this purpose but nothing chaged. 

Do I need to change something on my code or update the firmware version? 

The version of LabVIEW is 2023 Q1 and the version of  Instacal is 6.74.

The firmware of the device is 1.20.

Hello @g.martinez.

Please test the ULx example 'ULx Write Dig Chan.vi', which can be found in 'C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2023\examples\ULx\Digital\Generate Values.llb' file. 

Connect a LED or DVM to a digital line 'DIO#' and 'GND'.  Run the example and toggle the digital bit.  Does the LED illuminate?

What components are you attempting to turn on?

The digital output lines only provide a couple of milliamps.  https://www.mccdaq.com/pdfs/manuals/USB-TC.pdf

I also created the attached VI example (for LabVIEW 2023) and I am able to toggle the LED on the digital bit 0 line.
