Using NI-DMM in LabVIEW
This topic assumes that you are using the National Instruments LabVIEW ADE to manage your code development and that you are familiar with the ADE.
To develop an NI-DMM application in LabVIEW, follow these general steps:
- Open an existing or new LabVIEW VI.
- From the Function Palette (the default location), locate the NI-DMM VIs at All Functions»NI Measurements»NI-DMM.
- Select the VIs that you want to use and drop them on the block diagram to build your application.
Example Programs
LabVIEW users can use the LabVIEW Example Finder to search or browse examples. NI-DMM examples are classified by keyword, so you can search for a particular device or measurement function.
To browse the NI-DMM examples available in LabVIEW, launch LabVIEW, click Find Examples, and navigate to Hardware Input and Output»Modular Instruments»NI-DMM (Digital Multimeters).
You can find the installed locations of example programs in the NI-DMM Readme File. For additional information regarding NI-DMM examples, refer to Examples.
