Virtual Instrumentation - Introduction
Virtual Instrumentation uses off-the shelf mainstream computer technologies combined
with innovative, flexible software and modular high-performance hardware technologies to
create powerful computer based instrumentation solutions. The objective in virtual
instrumentation is to use a PC to mimic real instruments with their dedicated controls and
displays with the added versatility that come with software.
Virtual Instrumentation combines hardware and software with industrial standard
computerized technologies to create user-defined instrumentation solutions. National Instruments
specializes in developing plug-in, distributed hardware and driver software for data acquisition
(DAQ), IEEE 488(GPIB), PXI, serial and industrial communications. The driver software is the
application programming interface to the hardware and is consistent across National Instruments
application software, such as LabVIEW, Lab windows and Measurement Studio. These platforms
deliver the sophisticated display and analysis capabilities that Virtual Instrumentation requires.
LabVIEW - Ideal for virtual instrumentation
LabVIEW is an integral part of virtual instrumentation because it provides an easy-to-use
application development environment designed specifically for engineers and scientists.
LabVIEW offers powerful features that make is easy to connect to a wide variety of hardware
and other software. This ease of use and these features deliver the required flexibility for a virtual
instrumentation software development environment. The result is a user-defined interface and
user-defined application functionality. One of the most powerful features that LabVIEW offers is
its graphical programming paradigm. With LabVIEW, engineers and scientists can design
custom virtual instruments by creating a graphical user interface on the computer screen through
which they.
Temperature Sensing Circuit
Temperature sensor AD590 produces a proportional current in accordance to the
temperature in micro amperes. Sensing circuit consists of a widely used op-amp μA 741, which
converts current to proportional amplified voltage compatible with NI-ELVIS.
Building Installer (setup.exe)
Application may need hardware driver software to be installed in the PC, but building
installer is like designing complete software itself for building the project without the need of any
driver software pre-installed in PC. All the steps involved in building application is needed, after
which all the hardware drivers required are to be attached to the project and installer is build by
giving right license file, readme file, icon file, installer key, project designer details and all other
requirements. After building, installer can be provided to users, who can work with the designed
project, even without a single pie of knowledge in LabVIEW
