Introduction to LabVIEW in General Engineering: Applications, Controls, and Virtual Instruments

This introductory overview delves into the applications of LabVIEW within the General Engineering context. Covering sample interfaces, remote communication methods, and the distinction between graphic-based and text-based interfaces, the course explores the use of virtual instruments (VIs), front panel controls, color representation, and more. With practical program examples like a Calculator and Voltmeter, students undergo a LabVIEW Proficiency Test to solidify their understanding. Benefits of LabVIEW, such as saving money and space, plus the availability of unlimited customized applications, are highlighted in the conclusion.

  10. Front Panel and Diagram Panel

  11. Tools

  12. Front Panel Controls Terminal in diagram panel represents front panel object in source code

  13. Controls and Indicators Two types of objects in front panel

  14. Color Representation

  15. Objectives • Learn basic, introductory commands • Input data (voltage) • Create two programs

  16. Program 1: Calculator • Input • Keyboard • Input/Output board • Switch: 3 operations • 3 LEDs • 2 numeric controls • 1 indicator • Switch for input data • Case statement

  17. Program 2: Voltmeter • Input from I/O block (±5 volts) • 7 LEDs: 7-segment display rounded to nearest integer • 1 negative sign LED • Case statement: control different combinations

  18. LabVIEW Proficiency Test • 25-segment LED display with corresponding cases • 2 switches • binary-to-decimal • decimal-to-binary (inoperative) • Control • Warning function First 5 non-repeating letters and #s of name (last, first) and ID

  19. Conclusions • Advantages • Saves money/space • Unlimited customized applications • More help • LabVIEW manuals • Help Team report Include: • Front/Diagram panels of both programs • Brief written explanations of implementation
