Choose and Install Your ADE
You can create applications for your digital waveform generator/analyzer using LabVIEW,
LabWindows
™
/CVI
™
, or Microsoft Visual C++.
LabVIEW features interactive graphics, a state-of-the-art interface, and a powerful graphical
programming language. LabWindows/CVI is a complete ANSI C ADE that features an
interactive user interface, code generation tools, and the LabWindows/CVI Data Acquisition
libraries. Using LabVIEW or LabWindows/CVI can greatly reduce your application
development time.
If you have not already installed the ADE, follow the instructions in the product documentation
to install your ADE now.
