Hi,

I have 10 Stamps . Each stamps with one temperature sensor and with
one USB to serial adapter.

Do you know if I can send all the data to one PC using the PLX-DAQ ?

I need to see each temeperature in one excel sheet.

Thanks,

    I'm not expert with PLX-DAQ, but I believe that it only works with a single serial port, so you couldn't do what you want. It would be possible to hook the 10 Stamps together to form a network (like that described in a pair of columns in the Nuts and Volts archive), then have one of those Stamps send the accumulated data to the PC via PLX-DAQ. The "master" Stamp would store the latest reading from each of the other Stamps and then send the set of 10 readings to the PC as a group (in order).

    Thanks Mike:

    I understand that I can add many USB ports and for this reason I can have several
    virtual com ports.

    Thanks any way Mike , I will look for more information.
