Accessing Data in Lookout
LabVIEW VIs
When you install the FieldPoint software, a library of FieldPoint VIs is
created if LabVIEW has already been installed on your computer. The
FieldPoint VIs (FP Open, FP Get Configuration Info, FP Create Tag,
FP Advise, FP Read, FP Write, and FP Close) directly access the I/O Items
you configured in the FieldPoint Explorer program. In addition, a set of
examples is placed in your
LabVIEW Examples
directory. These examples
are the best way to get familiar with the LabVIEW VIs. The FieldPoint
LabVIEW Help document is in the same program group on your Windows
taskbar as the FieldPoint Explorer program. This help document explains
how to use the FieldPoint VIs.
