Software Design of the Track State Inspection System Based on LabVIEW

Abstract:

This paper describes the software of the track state inspection system based on LABVIEW, which includes serial communication, data extraction, strap-down algorithm, acceleration integral and saving the results. Serial communication module uses VISA to program in order to realize communication between the IMU (inertial measurement unit)and upper computer. According to the output data format, data extraction module separates the signal of three axes’ accelerations and angular-rates by Match Pattern Function. Strap-down algorithm and acceleration integral modules are programmed by Math Script. The measurement results are saved by Write to Spreadsheet File Function. Finally, it’s to design a convenient humanized operation interface.
