Can I use USB-6009 and NI-9264 for Real-time data acquisiton?

Hi,

I'm using USB-6009 and NI-9264 for my project. I would like to collect data real-time in Simulink. In other words, I would like to see that Simulink test time and my desktop time match(synchronize) each other as I do the experiments.

I first thought of using Simulink Desktop Real-time Analog Input/Output and Digital Output blocks. However, I figured my daq devices are not supported in these blocks. I also searched for running my SImulink model in External mode through Desktop Real-time app, but I guess I have to use only the I/O blocks mentioned before for the External mode. I figured other I/O blocks like Analog Input/Output and Digital Output (Single Sample) seem not to work in this setting. I have attached the error message I got when I used Analog Input (Single Sample)

So, my question is "Is there any way for me to perform real-time data acquisition in Simulink with USB-6009 & NI-9264" ? I appreciate any feedbacks on this topic and feel free to leave comments! Also, let me know if I'm missing anything.

Thank you.

Hi Taeksoo,

I think you might have posted your message in the wrong section. I'm not an expert in Simulink Desktop Real-Time, but real-time data acquisition is certainly possible with Simulink Real-Time and Speedgoat hardware.

For more information, have a look at www.speedgoat.com

No. Simulink Real-Time does not support any NI USB devices.

Does it support NI 9264?

[Walter Roberson]

It would have to be inside a PCI or PCIx device, and even then I am not at all certain Simulink Real-Time would support it. The hardware list does not mention any of the chassis.
