National Instruments modular instruments use specialized drivers suited to
each product’s specialization. Express VIs provide customized, interactive
programming of instruments in a single interface, and soft front panels
provide an interface for testing the functionality of each instrument with
no programming required. NI switches, DMMs, high-speed DIO,
high-speed digitizers, and sources each have customized drivers for
high-end modular instrumentation systems. RF applications leverage
two drivers, NI-RFSG and NI-RFSA, and dynamic signal acquisition is
available through NI-DAQmx. For more information, visit

You can expand the timing and triggering functionality of your PXI system
with PXI timing and synchronization products. These products provide
precision clock sources, custom routing of triggers for multichassis
synchronization, clock sharing, and more, and are programmed with
NI-Sync. For more information, visit

NI-VISA is the National Instruments implementation of the VISA
specification. VISA is a uniform API for communicating and controlling
USB, Serial, GPIB, PXI, VXI, and various other types of instruments. This
API aids in the creation of portable applications and instrument drivers. For
information about writing your own PXI instrument driver with NI-VISA,
refer to the NI-VISA Help and the
readme.txt file in the NI-VISA
directory. For more information, visit
ni.com/visa.
With LabVIEW for Linux and support for more than 200 devices on Linux
with the NI-DAQmx driver, you can now create virtual instruments based
on the Linux OS. The NI-VISA driver for Linux has improved instrument
control in Linux, and NI modular instruments are partially supported. For
