I note that the SCC SG04 has a 2.5v excitation voltage and the force unit indicated is recommended at 10v excitation. There is a 10v excitation unit which is the SCC SG24. Anyway with a lower excitation voltage you get less mV output for a force input which could mean that you loose ability to mea

Thanks for the help. Do you see any problems with using the load cell found at this site: http://www.smdsensors.com/detail_pgs/s400.htm I will be using it measure the compressive force of an epidural needle. Thanks again.

Assuming that you are happy to use one of the built in data aquisition examples as a basis. Labview and NI-Daq are installed and the hardware fitted in the computer system. Well a plan would be a good start so how's this: - 1.0.0) Your first task would be to prepare the system. 1.1.0) Read all

I am a beginner at using NI products and I was wondering if anyone can help get me started with a simple load cell force measurement? Basically, what I want to do is acquire the signal from a load cell convert it to Newtons and display the waveform. The measurements will be continuous and will end
