Labview and AM magnetic encoder

FIRST General Forum

Can anyone provide Labview help with interfacing with this encoder:

How do I wire it up and access it in Labview ?

Thanks

I haven’t used it, but I suspect that two ways to interface to it, are to

  1. Treat it like an incremental encoder and use the LabVIEW functions for that
    *]Average the PWM signal and treat it like any other analog input. See 7.4 Analog Output
    You can send AndyMark the question and they can probably get you started.

There is an example built into LabVIEW.
