Using NI-SWITCH in LabWindows/CVI
This topic assumes that you are using the LabWindows/CVI ADE to manage your code development and that you are familiar with the ADE.
To develop an NI-SWITCH application in LabWindows/CVI, follow these general steps:
- Open an existing or new project file.
- Load the NI-SWITCH function panel at IVI\Drivers\NISWITCH.
- Use the function panel to navigate the function hierarchy and to generate function calls with the proper syntax and variable values.
