Configure Page for: Print PDF Rich Text
  • Integrate PCI I/O boards for analog, digital, counter/timer, vision, and sound and vibration signals
  • Develop on a Windows host computer; download application to the real-time target via Ethernet
  • PC runs a single-kernel RTOS for maximum reliability
  • Deploy LabVIEW Real-Time applications to standard PCs (see requirements below)
  • Communicate with external devices through GPIB, CAN, serial, and Ethernet
  • Deployment License Bundle includes a PCI Ethernet card to help with compatibility issues

Use the National Instruments LabVIEW Real-Time Module for ETS targets to convert a qualified desktop or industrial PC into a dedicated real-time hardware target. Basic qualifications are:

  • Pentium 4 processor
  • FAT 32 IDE or other compatible hard drive (see complete requirements list)
  • Compatible integrated or PCI Ethernet adapter such as Intel Pro/100 S adapter
  • 3.5 in. floppy drive

    Desktop PCs have a wide range of Ethernet chips, some of which are not compatible with LabVIEW Real-Time. To address this challenge, the LabVIEW Deployment License Bundle includes a supported PCI Ethernet card. View the requirements for a desktop PC as a real-time target.

    Applications developed for this target require a Windows XP/2000 host computer and the LabVIEW Real-Time Module (ETS) for Windows.
