LabVIEW Support for Innovation Integration X5-210M

[Ghulam]

I was wondering if anyone here is using Innovation Integration X5-210M module: http://www.innovative-dsp.com/products.php?product=X5-210M

and was able to interface the acquired data with LabVIEW.

Their support is only in the form of C++ libraries and an example program. They also suggest, in a very general way, how to create a DLL for LabVIEW: http://www.iidsp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=549

I am having a hard time trying to put it together. If anyone has found a solution, I appreciate it if you guide me in the right direction. Please be specific.

Thanks.

The link basically says that you can call the C++ DLL, rather than trying to rewrite the driver in native LabVIEW code.

See this link for how to call a DLL in LabVIEW

Thanks for quick response.

I know how to do that. What I am not sure about is how to put the c++ source code that they have provided for the executable into a DLL. The source code is unmanaged, comprising of low level static libraries. I am new to c++, so I wondered if anyone who may have the same module, and how he/she approached it.

Ghulam-

Take a look at this link:

http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-2028 this is an example on running a C DLL in LV but the architecture should be very similar to making a C++ version. Let me know if this helps! Happy Presidents Day!!
