NI-FGEN
Creating an Application with LabVIEW

This topic assumes that you are using LabVIEW to manage your code development and that you are familiar with the ADE.

To develop an NI-FGEN application in LabVIEW, follow these general steps:

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

NI-FGEN Example Programs for LabVIEW

If you are using LabVIEW 7.0 or later, you can use the NI Example Finder to search or browse examples. NI-FGEN examples are classified by keyword, so you can search for a particular device or measurement function.

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

For the installation location of the LabVIEW example files, refer to the NI-FGEN Instrument Driver Readme.
