RT Series DAQ Functions
This section contains information about the RT Series DAQ VIs. Refer to
the LabVIEW RT Online Help, available by selecting Help»LabVIEW RT
Help, for more information about the LabVIEW RT VIs.
In addition to the RT Series DAQ VIs, LabVIEW RT includes the PID
Control Toolset, which includes functions for PID and Fuzzy Logic control.
The Fuzzy Controller VI requires information for a specific designed fuzzy
controller loaded from its corresponding data file (
*.fc). Because
LabVIEW RT does not support file I/O, you must save this information as
the default values of the front panel controls of the Fuzzy Controller VI
before attempting to use it on the RT Series DAQ device. Refer to the PID
Control for G Reference Manual for more information about the PID
Control and Fuzzy Logic VIs.
RT Series DAQ VIs
You can find VIs specific to RT Series DAQ on the Functions»RT»RT
Series DAQ palette, as shown in Figure 4-2.
