Data Translation Instruments and MATLAB
Data Translation manufactures temperature and voltage measuring instruments such as the TempPoint™ and VoltPoint™ series of instruments that connect to your computer via Ethernet. You can use MATLAB together with Instrument Control Toolbox as your single software environment to configure, control, acquire, and analyze data from Data Translation measuring instruments.
Other Data Translation USB and PCI data acquisition devices are supported through Data Acquisition Toolbox using an adaptor available from Data Translation.
Once data is in MATLAB, you can analyze and visualize that data for tasks such as signal processing, statistical analysis, digital filtering, and curve fitting. You can also create graphical interfaces for collecting and analyzing your data and automating tests.
Data Translation Instrument Drivers
Instrument drivers let you communicate with an instrument using higher-level commands. You can communicate with any instrument that supports the instrument standards IVI, LXI, or VXIplug&play.
Find Data Translation Instrument Drivers
- Instrument driver search tool (search by model name or number)
- IVI Foundation Driver Registry
Communication Protocols
If an instrument driver is not available for your instrument, you can communicate directly with the instrument using SCPI commands over these communication protocols:
