The number of programming in a computer

[labmaster]

Dear all,

I have a question about the number of labview program in a computer which could be run at the same time.

Please let me know how to run two or more different programs at the same time.

Thank you in advance.

I don't think there is a limit as to how many programs can be running at one time except for memory space and raw CPU power.  To run more than one vi at a time, create a main VI.  In that vi call whatever vi's you want.  If you do not connect any wires between the two vi's, they will both run at the same time.  You can still have inputs and outputs for each vi, but you do not want to have one vi output as another vi input.  If you do this, the vi that creates the output will run first, then the vi that accepts the input will run second because it needed that input before it could start running.

Hi:

I'm not sure what are you talking about. Do you mean how many VI's can you start on LabVIEW at the same time? Or you mean how many applications compiled can run on the same computer?

In both cases, the limit is impossed by your PCs available resources. If you want to run two or more VIs in LabVIEW just make visible the front panel of all of them and press the Run button. You may notice that they got slow and that's because the processor of your PC is handling all of them at the same time.

Hope this helped, if I misunderstood your question please let me know.

Regards!
