labVIEW lecture november 12

Above Threshold Warning for Incubating Chickens:
The dreaded prelude to one of the most frustrating, yet rewarding projects that I have done.

I won't have any pictures of code for this blog, I am sorry to disappoint you however if you happen upon Chris Cote's blog somewhere around November 12 there is a good chance you will see the code and such that I worked on.

These goddamn chickens are so finicky with their temperature preferences. Put a damn coat on for christsake, or take it off, whatever. But noooooo, we go about making this wholely unnecessary thermometer that responds with 4 temperture gauges so that we can see via LabVIEW interface and then again on the incubating device itself. This is the first, or one of the many first times we used Labview vernier's analog port for temperature. There's this entire deal with finding the function table in the back panel and then setting it up in a correct way not to mention we introduce case structures, pretty cool initially but they get annoying, to output degrees in Celsius or in Fahrenheit and finally there is a message that says, when a condition is met or not met, what state is above or at threshold.

all of this is used in that future prpoject as we were supp0ose to keep a device within a certain heat range.
