Résumé
With LabVIEW, you build virtual instruments (VIs) instead of writing programs. You quickly create front panel user interfaces, giving you interactive control of your software system. To specify the functionality, you intuitively assemble block diagrams—a natural design notation for engineers and scientists. Typical uses of LabVIEW in Mechanical Engineering include measurements and instrumentation, fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, and automatic control systems.
Contents
CHAPTER 1: LabVIEW Basics—This chapter introduces the LabVIEW environment and helps orient students when they open a virtual instrument. Concepts such as windows, toolbars, menus, and palettes are discussed.
CHAPTER 2: Virtual Instruments—The components of a virtual instrument are introduced in this chapter: front panel, block diagram, and icon/ connector pair. This chapter also introduces the concept of controls (inputs) and indicators (outputs) and how to wire objects together in the block diagram.
CHAPTER 3: Editing and Debugging Virtual Instruments—Resizing, coloring, and labeling objects are just some of the editing techniques introduced in this chapter. Students can find errors using execution highlighting, probes, single-stepping, and breakpoints, just to name a few of the available debugging tools.
CHAPTER 4: SubVIs—This chapter emphasizes the importance of reusing code and illustrates how to create a VI icon/connector. It also shows parallels between LabVIEW and text-based programming languages.
CHAPTER 5: Structures—This chapter presents loops, case structures, and sequence structures that govern the execution flow in a VI. The Formula Node is introduced as a way to implement complex mathematical equations. The MATLAB Node is also introduced as a way to run m-files from within the LabVIEW environment.
CHAPTER 6: Arrays and Clusters—This chapter shows how data can be grouped, either with elements of the same type (arrays) or elements of a different type (clusters). This chapter also illustrates how to create and manipulate arrays and clusters.
CHAPTER 7: Charts and Graphs—This chapter shows how to display and customize the appearance of single and multiple charts and graphs.
CHAPTER 8: Data Acquisition—The basic characteristics of analog and digital signals are discussed in this chapter, as well as the factors students need to consider when acquiring and generating these signals. This chapter introduces students to the Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX). All examples use the Easy I/O DAQ VIs.
CHAPTER 9: Strings and File I/O—This chapter shows how to create and manipulate strings on the front panel and block diagram. This chapter also explains how to write data to and read data from ASCII, spreadsheet, and binary files.
CHAPTER 10: Instrument Control—The components of an instrument control system using a GPIB or serial interface are presented in this chapter. Students are introduced to the notion of instrument drivers and of using the Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) to detect and install instrument drivers.
CHAPTER 11: Analysis—LabVIEW can be used in a variety of ways to support analysis of signals and systems. Several important analysis topics are discussed in this chapter, including how to use LabVIEW for signal generation, signal processing, linear algebra, curve fitting, formula display on the front panel, differential equations, finding roots (zero finder), and integration and differentiation.
CHAPTER 12: Other LabVIEW Applications—The concluding chapter discusses briefly other features of LabVIEW, including how to share data and VIs across a network using DataSocket technology. Also, a brief introduction is presented for interfacing with HiQ.
