About this title

Synopsis:

Now available for the users of LabVIEW, the highly acclaimed graphics programming tool, comes this definitive user's guide. Function by function, the author details how to put LabVIEW to work on each of the major platforms, including Windows, Macintosh, and Sun SPARCstation. The book outlines a logical analysis methodology and moves on to detail how each problem must be defined in terms of signals and data.

From the Back Cover:

This is the only in-depth, engineering-level guide to the popular graphical programming language for virtual instrumentation. LabVIEW is ideal for developing software-based versions of real-world instruments, increasing the versatility of available hardware and saving thousands of dollars in equipment costs. Control panels mimic real panels, right down to on-screen lights and switches. Best of all, LabVIEW is easily understood by scientists and engineers-and can thus be used to achieve productive results more quickly. With LabVIEW, programming is done via block diagrams that consist of icons and wires that can be directly compiled into executable code. Full of practical tips and techniques, the completely revised text provides complete coverage of LabVIEW, including instrument drivers, using the DAQ Library, designing a DAQ system, data visualization, image processing, and automated test applications. New material covers networking and sound/video programming issues, along with other features of the latest LabVIEW releases. A companion CD-ROM provides an extensive library of ready-to-use LabVIEW virtual instruments. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Gary W. Johnson is a longtime LabVIEW user. He is currently an Instrumentation Engineer at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.
