This is lab 35 of 39 in the course

by Dr. Ed Doering | Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology

This project introduces students to logging data on myRIO. Students use LabVIEW to monitor the myRIO onboard accelerometer, and saves the data as a spreadsheet onto a USB flash drive. They also monitor the flash drive capacity and free space and file directory. Through these activities, students follow steps to demonstrate data logging, watch videos involving theory, and participate in a short activity after each video.
