NIDAQ-driver 0.1.0
Library for interfacing with NIDAQ devices

# NIDAQ-driver
 Python library for NI DAQ modules

To use, include NIDAQClient.py in your project.

# Example
```python
from NIDAQClient import NIDAQVoltage
from NIDAQClient import NIDAQThermo

# Create an instance of the client for thermocouple reading.
# This thermocouple module is installed in position 2 in the NI DAQ cage:
daq = NIDAQThermo(position=2, thermocouple_type='J')
daq.start()

# Here, use the `read_samples` method whenever you need to read from the channels.
data = daq.read_samples()

# Print the data here in the console
print("Received Thermocouple Data:")
print(data)

daq.stop()
daq.close()



# Now, read a voltage sensor installed in the NI cage in position 4:
daq = NIDAQVoltage(position=4)
daq.start()

# Here, use the `read_samples` method whenever you need to read from the channels.
data = daq.read_samples()

# Print the data here in the console
print("Received Voltage Data:")
print(data)

daq.stop()
daq.close()
```

The output will look something like this:
```
Received Thermocouple Data:
[1376.34 1376.34 1376.34 1376.34 1376.34 1376.34 1376.34 1376.34]
Received Voltage Data:
[3.27506 3.27454 3.31136 3.29971 3.32641 3.30917 3.33307 3.3026  3.16697

 ```

 # Usage

 The NI DAQ 'cards' must be addressed by their position in the cage. The cage positions are represented in the ASCII art below:

 ```

|             |   1   |   2   |   3   |   4   |
|             |       |       |       |       |
-----------------------------------------------
```

For example if a thermocouple card is inserted in position 3, you must initalize the reader as
```python
daq = NIDAQThermo(position=2, thermocouple_type='J')
```

You can read the samples from the card with the following:
```python
data = daq.read_samples()
```

This code will return a list of values from the card. Thermocouple cards will return eight values, relating to thermocouple channels 0 through 7. Voltage cards will return thirty-two values, relating to channels 0 through 31. You can pull these values into the rest of your code to save or transmit to other parts of your code.
