Resource is the Axis, Vector Space, ADC, or Encoder you wired into the VI. Use Resource Output to pass the resource to another VI and/or to display information about the device.
Bitmap is the bitmap corresponding to the combination of the resources selected.

Using This VI

Select Resource VI is used to generate input bitmaps for VIs that operate on multiple resources.

This VI returns a bitmap based on the resource IDs wired in. The order of the resources wired in does not matter. The true/false state of a bit in the bitmap is controlled by the resource ID and not by the wire position.

This VI is useful when used with Start, Stop, and Blend VIs.
