NI RF Vector Signal Analyzers

Using NI-RFSA 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-RFSA application in LabVIEW, follow these general steps:

  1. Open an existing or new LabVIEW VI.
  2. From the Function Palette, locate the NI-RFSA VIs at Instrument I/O»NI-RFSA .
  3. Select the VIs that you want to use and drop them on the block diagram to build your application.

Example Programs for LabVIEW

You can use the NI Example Finder to search or browse examples. NI-RFSA examples are classified by keyword, so you can search for a particular device or measurement function.

To browse the NI-RFSA examples available in LabVIEW, launch LabVIEW, click Open»Examples, and navigate to Hardware Input and Output»Modular Instruments»NI-RFSA .

The NI RF Signal Analyzers Readme includes the default installation location of the NI-RFSA LabVIEW examples.
