FieldPoint VIs
From FieldPoint LabView Interface
FieldPoint VIs
Use the FieldPoint VIs located on the Functions»Measurement I/O»FieldPoint palette to interact with FieldPoint devices.
| Palette Object | Description |
|---|---|
| IO Point | References a FieldPoint item configured in LabVIEW or Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX). A FieldPoint item represents a channel or group of channels on a FieldPoint module. |
| Read (Polymorphic) | Reads a single set of values from a FieldPoint item. |
| Write (Polymorphic) | Asynchronously writes to a FieldPoint item when used with an FieldPoint Ethernet module. Synchronously writes to a FieldPoint item when used with a FieldPoint serial module or when running embedded on a FieldPoint RT controller. |
| Write/Read (Polymorphic) | Asynchronously writes to and reads from FieldPoint items when used with a FieldPoint Ethernet module. Synchronously writes to and reads from FieldPoint items when used with a FieldPoint serial module and when running embedded on a FieldPoint RT controller. When running embedded on a FieldPoint RT controller, this VI provides better performance than separate FP Read and FP Write VIs. |
| Express | Reads from or writes to channels on FieldPoint modules. The physical channels on the hardware are referred to as items in software. |
| Subpalette | Description |
|---|---|
| Advanced | Use the Advanced VIs located on the FieldPoint»Advanced palette to interact with legacy VIs and for low-level Ethernet and serial communication. |
