HMI with VBAI

[AKanna]

I am new to NI HMI modules. I have some doubts regarding HMI. Can you please help me.

Our current scenario- We are Using VBAI for vision systems(like detection, part recognation, etc). We are doing it by Smart camera, VBAI software, Labview Base version Software. We are placing a PC in the work station and we monitoring it.

The need - We like to take out that PC which we are using in the work station now and replace it with a HMI. 

My question- Is it possible for use. To do our system with NI touchpanels. If so, can you please give a brief idea?

-Can I upload my VBAI and VI programmes and run it.

-When I saw in the website. It says "touch panel module" and below that "recommanded hardware" http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/202908. Can you please tell me the difference between the two.

-When i Buy the touch panels does it also comes with the software.

Thanks in Advance.

Hello AKanna,

you can use the touch panel module to run LabVIEW applications.

It is not indended to run the VBAI on the touch panel module but to

run applications developed with the LabVIEW Touch Panel Module.

This is a functional extension for LabVIEW. The deploy license is included - for the

development of the application you will need to buy a development license once:

Best Regards,

To update the values on the touch panel, you can use shared variables, which VBAI can read/write.

Here's a white paper on using shared variables with Vision Builder AI:

Hope this helps,
