Vision Development Module under PXI RT

[Alex1004]

Hi,

I have three questions about LabView Real Time and PXI RT.

1)Is it possible to use a PXI-8351 to control two PXI-8196RT? How can I do it? ethernet?

2)I have no experience in LabView Real Time but have some experience for LabView FPGA. I don't know is it possible to run Vision Development Module, Motion Development Module, and CANopen Labview Library under Labview Real time? And is there any resitrictions for the development of LabView Real Time program? (for example: in Labview FPGA there is a restriction that we can use floating point number in Labview FPGA)

3)Is it possible to run a FPGA modeul (ex: PXI7830R) under the real time controller PXI-8196RT?

Thanks!

Hi Alex1004,

Just to answer a couple of the questions you had to start off.

CANopen has LabVIEW Real-Time Support with Series 2 PXI High-Speed CAN Interfaces

Also, here is a link that will answer you question about vision and RT compatibility.

In terms of any restrictions that exist for real-time programming. There are several things that one should look out for when programming deterministic applications (NI actually offers a course on this). Here is a link to some resources that will give you a better idea about LV RT development.

I hope this helps. I will look into some details and I will try to make a follow-up post to answer the other questions shortly.

Best regards,

Hi Alex,

Excellent, I am glad this helped!

I have also looked into using the 8196RT and 7830R together and there does not appear to be any conflict for this configuration.

Best regards,

Steven
