Logging of Data using NI DAQ 6001and MATLAB

To log data using an NI DAQ 6001 and MATLAB, follow these steps:
1. Install Required Software:
- NI-DAQmx Driver: Ensure the NI-DAQmx driver is installed. This driver allows communication between MATLAB and the NI DAQ 6001.
- MATLAB with Data Acquisition Toolbox: Ensure MATLAB and its Data Acquisition Toolbox are installed.
2. Set Up Hardware:
- Connect the NI DAQ 6001 to your computer via USB.
- Ensure the device is powered on and recognized by your computer.
3. Create a Data Acquisition Session in MATLAB:
- Load the Data Acquisition Toolbox.
- Create a session object for the NI DAQ device.
- Add the necessary analog input channels from which you want to log data.
- Configure the session by setting the sampling rate and duration for data logging.
- Start the session to begin logging data.
4. Save Data(optional):
- Save the acquired data to a file for further analysis or processing.
