PC consumption and RAM memory of VI

[A.Salcedo]

Hello everyone.

First of all thanks a lot for answering and helping me in this post.

I created a large labview program where I use vision module and connections to a PLC.

I have to create and installer and this has to be run on an industrial PC.

Maybe it can use a lot of memory and consuming, so my question is:

How I can check how much consumes the installer program (just the application which is going to be run on the industrial PC) and wheter if it will run smoothly on the industrial PC?

Is there a labview tool or way to know that?

Thanks a lot!

Run it on your computer and compare specs?

[A.Salcedo]

Yes, the problem is that I have to buy a industrial PC before. So I need what specs I need to run my program.

thanks.

Well, if your 3GHz computer uses 10% CPU to run the program, a 2GHz computer should use ~15%. 🙂

If it runs smooth on your test machine, purchase a system which is comparable to your machine.

Use Windows Task Manager (or better PerfMon) to observe the application, use Desktop Execution Trace Toolkit (DETT) in order to identify possible issues during execution which can prevent long-term runs of your application.

If you want to purchase a computer with less resources than your development machine, please check the minimum requirements of the tools you were using to develop the application (e.g. LabVIEW, NI Vision Module, ...)
