Hi,
I made some DLLs (some time ago) with LabWindowsCVI and I call them on TestStand.
Now I want to make a TestStand user interface on LabVIEW.
My problem is the following:
- I inicialize some cards like NI4461, NI4065, CAN, FPGA with my DLLs; the DLLs return a device handle when I inicialize them on CVI; any operation I make on those cards I have to use that device handle;
- Is it possible to inicialize a device on CVI and use the returned handle to operate that device on LabVIEW?
Normally I use the DLL to do everything, but now I want to use the same device on LabVIEW to do other things that my DLL isn't able.
Hope I was clear enough.
I apreciate all the help.
Thanks in advance for any answer.

Hello,
You can initialize your boards with LabVIEW, or effectively you can use a dll (create with CVI) in order to initialize your board, but i think that it will be easier with LabVIEW, so i advice you to initialize your board with LabVIEW.
