GUI for process control

[Dr. Mckay]

I making a VI for process control. Is there librarys for piping, tanks, pumps and valves in labview. Or do I have do make my own. If I have to make my own, how do I do that. Maybe a turtorial here, but I did not find one.

BTW this is my first post her

There's already a tank control that comes with LabVIEW. Valves and pipes you can copy from the "Tank Simulation" example that ships with LabVIEW. Essentially these are custom controls or just pictures that have been pasted onto the front panel. The LabVIEW Help contains instructions on creating your own custom controls.

Also, the Datalogging and Supervisory Control (DSC) Module contains a whole bunch of these types of controls.

Great, something like the Datalogging and Supervisory Control (DSC) Module I was looking for.

Where can I download this module or do I have to buy a licence ?

Is it posible to make custom ones?  I want custom controls  be based on my own desire.

hmm.... the spell check in firefox don't work on this board. Any ideas why ?

You need to buy the DSC module.

You can always make custom controls. As I mentioned, the LabVIEW Help has guidance on how to do this.
