We've recently acquired a couple of cDAQ-9191 wireless chassises with 9205 modules, which we plan to use for vibration measurements. Ideally we will use WiFi to connect the two chassies to the acquisition computer. But we are aware of the fact that sometimes we will need to use wires, if we work around corners, if the distances are too long,...
The chassis does show the signal strength with LEDs. But I was wondering if there's a way to obtain this information programmatically using DAQmx* functions? If so, I could program the data acquisition software so that, if the WiFI conditions worsen during the measurements, the software would give a warning that wires should be used.
Cheers,
Jan
