"The tremendous growth of the LabView Tools Network is a testament to the increasing popularity of the LabView graphical design platform," said Jack Barber, Manager of the National Instruments Alliance Partner programme.
"The LabView community continues to create new products that complement the LabView platform and expand its capabilities to empower engineers and scientists in new application areas".
The LabView Tools Network offers a convenient way for LabView users to identify tools to improve their development efforts.
Through this online network, users can conduct keyword searches as well as browse by function or industry to find the specialised products they need for their applications.
Some of the products available on the network include tools that help users programmatically toggle the language of all text elements in their code such as the LabView Localisation Toolkit created by SEA Datentechnik, and add-ons that make it possible to apply advanced modeling, control and parameterisation techniques to real-time measurement systems such as the ICP for LabView developed by ExpertControl .
For third-party vendors, the LabView Tools Network showcases their toolkits and add-ons to thousands of LabView users.
Vendors can also differentiate their products by validating them as Compatible with LabView through a recently announced programme from NI.
Participating companies evaluate their products based on a checklist of requirements that include specifications on documentation, style and function and then submit their checklist to NI for evaluation and confirmation (which is at the discretion of National Instruments).
The 'Compatible with LabView' programme helps customers make more informed purchasing decisions and encourages third-party vendors to produce high-quality products. Request a free brochure from National Instruments ...
