Description

This example allows developers to access network shared variables published by National Instruments Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) hardware programmatically using NI Publish-Subscribe Protocol (NI-PSP) primitives. This does not require installing the NI-WSN drivers or the WSN Pioneer module, although the drivers will be required to set up the network.

To use this VI, you will need to enter the IP address of the WSN gateway and the node number, which can be found in NI Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) after setting up and configuring the hardware.

 

This VI is not currently configured to be used as a SubVI, but would serve well if used in this manner.

 

 

Currently supports the following hardware:

 

NI WSN 9792

NI WSN 9791

 

NI WSN 3202

NI WSN 3212

NI WSN 3226

NI WSN 3214

 

Note: This is a work in progress, and I welcome any comments; definitely let me know if you run into any issues with the example.
