"calling picolo.dll in Labview"

"Hello all,
Basically, Iam new to this NI-IMAQ and Labview. Now, I want to use the Euresys - Picolo Image
acquisition card through Labview, for my image capturing. It seems that using something called the card driver(picolo.dll) this can be done. But, I really don't know the dexterity of handling dll files and calling external codes in Labview. Can anybody please tell me(teach me) how to call this picolo.dll in labview and to configure for sucessfully captuirng images in Labview using NI-IMAQ.
Hope that I would get some idea from you.

Advance thanks,


Regards,

Hello �

LabVIEW is very capable of running external code. It can access functions contained in DLLs via the Call Library Function Node. I would recommend taking a look into the following Tutorials:

Can LabVIEW C?
An Overview of Accessing DLLs or Shared Libraries from LabVIEW.

Other very good resource is the LabVIEW User Manual � Chapter 20. In LabVIEW, go to Help >> Search the LabVIEW Bookshelf. Then do a search for �call library function node� and in the results you will see a link to the LabVIEW User Manual.

Hope this helps!

Do you have a specific problem or question? The response Vences gave explains how to integrate a DLL and LabVIEW in general.
