Considerations for Using the LabVIEW Real-Time Module

To develop an NI-DCPower application in the LabVIEW Real-Time Module, follow the same steps used for developing any application in the LabVIEW Real-Time Module, with the addition of using the NI-DCPower LabVIEW VIs.

Note  Applications running NI-DCPower in the LabVIEW Real-Time Module on an RT target may be compromised and/or slow at 64 MB of memory.

Hardware Support

NI-DCPower supports all National Instruments power supplies and SMUs on RT targets.

Unsupported Features

When using NI power supplies and SMUs with the LabVIEW Real-Time Module, the following features are not supported:

  • External calibration
  • NI-DCPower Soft Front Panel (SFP)
  • Express VIs
