Creating an Application with LabVIEW

If you program your NI-DAQmx-supported device in LabVIEW, you can interactively create virtual channels—both global and local—and tasks by launching the DAQ Assistant from MAX or from within LabVIEW. Refer to the DAQ Assistant Help for additional information. You also can create local virtual channels and tasks, and write your own applications using the NI-DAQmx API. To get started in LabVIEW, follow these general steps:

1. Open an existing or new LabVIEW VI.
2. Build your VI, using the NI-DAQmx VIs and properties.

For help with NI-DAQmx VIs, refer to LabVIEW NI-DAQmx VI Reference Help. For general help with programming in LabVIEW, refer to LabVIEW Help.
