NI RF Signal Generator

Installed Examples

NI-RFSG includes several example applications for both LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI. These examples are intended to serve as interactive tools, programming models, and as building blocks in your own applications.

LabVIEW users can use the NI Example Finder to search or browse examples. NI-RFSG examples are classified by keyword, so you can search for a particular device or measurements function. With LabVIEW running, select Help»Find Examples to launch the NI Example Finder. The NI Example Finder offers two ways to access all installed LabVIEW example VIs (including NI-RFSG and Modulation Toolkit examples) and their descriptions:

  • Click the Browse tab to locate modulation examples by task at Hardware Input and Output»Modular Instruments»NI-RFSG or by directory structure at instr»niRFSG.
  • Click the Search tab to search all installed examples by keyword. For example, searching for "RFSG" can be used to locate all RF signal generator examples.

The NI Example Finder is also available in LabWindows/CVI by selecting Help»Find Examples. LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI users also can access all the installed NI-RFSG examples at Start»All Programs»National Instruments»NI-RFSG»Examples.

Examples also are available online that demonstrate integrating NI RF signal generators with the NI 5660 RF Signal Analyzer and NI toolkit software including the Modulation Toolkit. Refer to the NI Developer Zone at ni.com/zone for these examples and for more information.

  • Click the Browse tab to locate an NI-RFSG example by task at Hardware Input and Output»Modular Instruments»NI-RFSG or by directory structure at instr\niRFSG.
  • Click the Search tab to search all installed LabVIEW examples by keyword. Enter the keyword multitone, for instance, to locate an example demonstrating multitone signal generation using the NI RF signal generator and the Spectral Measurements Toolkit (if installed).

LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI users can also access all installed NI-RFSG examples at Start»All Programs»National Instruments»NI-RFSG»Examples. View LabVIEW examples by navigating to the
<LabVIEW>\examples\instr\niRFSG folder. View examples for CVI by navigating to the Program Files\IVI\Drivers\niRFSG\Examples directory.

Examples are also available at the NI Developer Zone at ni.com/zone that demonstrate integrating the NI RF signal generator hardware and software with the NI RF signal analyzers and NI toolkit software, including the Modulation Toolkit.
