You are invited to register for participation in the LabVIEW 64-bit Pioneer Beta Program.

This is the first beta of LabVIEW as a native 64-bit application on Windows Vista x64. The primary advantage of LabVIEW as a native 64-bit application is the ability to address larger amounts of memory. This is critical in applications that manipulate large datasets. We hope to open LabVIEW to a broad range of applications by adding this capability.

Prospective beta testers should be aware that since this is essentially a port of LabVIEW to a new platform, early betas will be less complete than early betas of recent 32-bit LabVIEW releases. However, we believe they will be complete enough for most use cases. Beta testers should expect a much longer beta period than has been typical for recent 32-bit LabVIEW releases so that the development team can respond to feedback.

You can register by visiting http://www.ni.com/beta and selecting "LabVIEW 64-bit Pioneer" from the list of beta programs.  Please complete the profile questions that will help us understand your experience and use cases with LabVIEW.  Be sure you agree to the T&C of the beta program so that you can be approved.

After you register, please be patient for the beta coordinators to process your application.  You will be notified when you have been approved. Registration does not necessarily guarantee you a position in the beta program. Determination of acceptance into the program is up to the sole discretion of National Instruments.

We will have a private section of the Discussion Forums set up for beta users to discuss the LabVIEW 64-bit Pioneer Beta.
