NI LabVIEW 6.1 Full Development System is a graphical programming environment built on the G language for data acquisition, instrument control, and automation. It delivers over 400 built-in analysis functions—including FFT, frequency analysis, signal generation, curve fitting, and time/frequency-domain operations—enabling engineers to develop custom measurement and control applications with event-driven user interfaces. Deploy as stand-alone executables, protected libraries, or web-accessible remote front panels.
Technical Specifications
Programming model: Graphical (G language) with block diagram and front panel architecture. Analysis library includes signal processing, mathematics, FFT, and frequency analysis functions. Event-driven UI design supports custom controls, Tab Control, and Multicolumn Listbox elements. Application deployment options include stand-alone executables with optional intellectual property protection (block diagram removal) and shared library generation for integration with other environments.
– Key Features
• Web Server integration for remote front panel access and control via browser
• Serial, USB, and Ethernet connectivity with ActiveX support
• GPIB hardware drivers (NI-488.2) and VXI device support
• Data logging and real-time/historical trending (expandable with optional LabVIEW DSC Module)
• LabVIEW 6.1 enhancements: Internet Ready capabilities, DataSocket improvements, Waveform Data Type, Event Structure, Error Case Structure, Polymorphic VIs
– Typical Applications
Data acquisition systems, automated test environments, instrument control interfaces, signal analysis and measurement processing, remote monitoring and supervisory control.
– Compatibility & Integration
Operating systems: Windows NT 4.0 SP3 or later (including Windows XP), Linux on Intel x86 (kernel 2.0.x or later; RedHat, Mandrake, SuSE, Debian distributions; requires glibc2.1.3), Macintosh System 7.6.1 or later. Remote front panel viewing requires Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 or later; LabVIEW Help and Measurement & Automation Explorer require IE 5.0 or later. Supports broad measurement hardware and I/O bus range.
