LabVIEW Real-Time (RT) Configuration
LabVIEW Real-Time (RT) combines easy-to-use LabVIEW programming
with the power of real-time systems. When you use a National Instruments
PXI controller as a LabVIEW RT system, you can install a PXI CAN card
and use the NI-CAN APIs to develop real-time applications. As with any
NI software library for LabVIEW RT, you must install the Automotive
Diagnostic Command Set software to the LabVIEW RT target using the
Remote Systems branch in MAX. For more information, refer to the
LabVIEW RT documentation.
After you install the PXI CAN cards and download the Automotive
Diagnostic Command Set software to the LabVIEW RT system, you must
verify the installation.
Hardware and Software Requirements
The Automotive Diagnostic Command Set requires National Instruments
NI-CAN hardware Series 1 or 2 or USB-CAN and the NI-CAN driver
software version 2.4 or later installed.
