Using NI-DCPower in LabVIEW
This topic assumes that you are using LabVIEW to manage your code development and that you are familiar with the ADE.
To develop an NI-DCPower application in LabVIEW, follow these general steps:
- Open an existing or new LabVIEW VI.
- Locate the NI-DCPower VIs.
- (LabVIEW 8.0 or later) From the Functions palette, select Measurement I/O»NI-DCPower.
- (LabVIEW 7.x) From the Functions palette, select All Functions»Instrument I/O»Instrument Drivers»NI-DCPower.
- Select the VIs that you want to use, and drop them on the block diagram to build your application.
