Dear Grace, The Other Brian, and 'Old School" I agree with Grace's and Other Brian's comments, with one caveat - use LavView as an instrument and table controller, but avoid the use of LabView for numerics, unless you have, for a narrow set of bounds, verified the specific VI using representational data sets. But if the only other crunching tool available is Excel, well use LV.
Also, be very careful where accurate time intervals or sync is required - there are some VIs that use the Windoze (system) clock - very bad. There have been several academic studies of numeric software tools, and the results indicate that for common calculations the correctness and accuracy of the numeric VIs is "it depends". Disclaimer on my view points - I will use LV when you pry my C compiler and my Python IDE from my cold, dead hands. luck, Brian On 7/21/08, Ken Javor <[email protected]> wrote: Forum Members, I am assisting in choosing automated software control for an EMI test facility.
