Once again this year, NI Days give us the opportunity to present our test automation and automated data analysis services and products to you in person. We will be represented twice at this year’s event: together with NI in the presentation “From Sensing to Action: Scalable Measurement and Control,” where we will show a complete […]
Today, 30 years ago, was my first working day at GfS mbH in Aachen and also the first day I came into contact with the DIAdem software. Since then, my entire professional life has been closely linked to this product, which has been part of the NI ecosystem for more than 25 years. Over the […]
However, for formats that are not supported by default, these programs require assistance in the form of DataPlugIns—extensions that connect to a standardized interface, describe the format of the data to be imported, and thus enable the import. While DataPlugIns for reading simple data formats can be created with the help of wizards, those for […]
… – the one on the left in our picture? And does it work the way it looks? Graphical programming languages in general, and LabVIEW in particular, promise an easy introduction to programming and quick solutions. This is certainly true for very simple tasks, but very few programming tasks are that simple. That is why […]
Class structure, encapsulation and inheritance in LabVIEW are virtually part of everyday life in LabVIEW development at müller+krahmer. In our long-standing collaboration with customers, where LabVIEW projects involving several man-years of development time are continuously being refined, structuring is essential. Topics such as encapsulation of data and methods of accessing it, definition and inheritance of […]
Last week, we presented our new fieldbus interface for compactRIO live for the first time at the Würzburg LabVIEW User Group (WUELUG) meeting at Siemens Energy in Nuremberg. And since we were guests at Siemens, we of course demonstrated the connection to a device with PROFINET interface, an electro-pneumatic valve from Emerson Aventics’ Advanced Valve […]
According to the NI website, DIAdem is ‘… is high-performance software for seamless test and measurement data management, exploration, analysis, and automation’. What we and many of our customers feel is missing is a reference to DIAdem’s measurement and control capabilities, which make the software unique as a whole. While DIAdem supports a wide range […]
This was a frequently asked question at presentations of our solutions for LabVIEW fieldbus connectivity. Now we can answer this question ‘yes’ for LabVIEW RT on NI Linux Real-Time. To make physical integration as easy as possible, we initially limited the hardware options to netHOST LAN gateways.. In the first development step, our libraries enable […]
With Industrial Communications for EtherCAT and the EtherCAT master available with it, NI has created a powerful interface for integration into industrial environments for its compactRIO PAC family and, with EtherCAT, NI has chosen what we consider to be the most powerful and flexible Real-Time Ethernet bus. A wide range of sensors and actuators can […]
Once again, we would like to thank NI for the opportunity to present our DIAdem-based turn-key solutions for various applications to interested users. We have shown automated data acquisition and evaluation on vehicles the end-of-line testing of pneumatic valves and our real-time extension of DIAdem based on TwinCAT. “Automation saves us 30% time – every […]
