The goal of this laboratory is to produce a simulated thermometer in LabVIEW.  Here are the specifications that you need to satisfy.

1. The system should measure one temperature using an LM35.  The LM35 should be connected to the front panel.  (You may want to refer to an earlier laboratory.)
2. The system should display the temperatures using a "Vertical Fill Slide", colored the traditional thermometer red.
3. The system should display the temperatures on a chart - to show time variation.
4. The system should allow the user to control the time interval between measurements.  The time interval should be input in seconds.
5. The system should display the elapsed time in seconds.
6. The system should open a file, save time and temperature in the file, and close the file.
7. The system should not use 1Volt.vi or the reset vi.  The error signal should flow clearly from the reset - outside the loop - to the GPIB blocks inside the loop, through each GPIB block to control the sequence of actions.
8. Check with your lab instructor or assistant.  It might be possible to turn on the power supply to the LM35 circuit under computer control

• Instructions on how to use the system.
• A clearly determined minimum time interval for the loop.
• Demonstration that the data file generated can be opened in Excel and Matlab.
• A clear explanation of how the system works.
