Generating Code in LabVIEW SignalExpress

After you create and save a project in LabVIEW SignalExpress, you can generate LabVIEW code from LabVIEW SignalExpress. Refer to the LabVIEW SignalExpress Help for instructions on how to generate VIs from a LabVIEW SignalExpress project.

If you have DAQ steps in your LabVIEW SignalExpress project, those steps are converted to DAQ Assistant Express VIs in LabVIEW.

However, in the following situations, LabVIEW SignalExpress creates a top-level Express VI for your entire project:

  • You have synchronized DAQ steps by sharing triggering or timing signals between them in one project.
  • Any DAQ step contains more than one measurement type, such as voltage and temperature.
  • DAQ steps are analog output or digital output.
  • You have configured execution delays between your DAQ steps.

In these cases, you must double-click the top-level express VI to open LabVIEW SignalExpress to change the project settings.
