With a temperaturesensor (PT100), we get an analoge signal, with an ADC (Analoge- Digital Converter) we converted the analoge signals to digital signals. We read the digital signals with the serial port in the PC. In labVIEW we need to convert these digital signals into numeric values. does anyone know how to do this?
thanks
 
What type of circuit is it?
Is it reading back the voltage across the sensor?
Is it reading the current through the sensor?
What is the reference to the A/D?

If you can read the voltage across the sensor
you can calculate the resistance if you know the
current. If the data coming in is already in
ohms then these formulas should help.
