Welcome to the NI VeriStand Discussion Forum

[Angela M]

Welcome to the National Instruments NI VeriStand discussion forum. This group is intended to provide a discussion forum for developers and engineers
using National Instruments NI VeriStand. Through the ni.com support site, this forum and other online tools, you have the opportunity to obtain
information and examples about NI VeriStand and to ask question to help you in creating Real-Time test applications using NI VeriStand.
In addition to answering current questions it provides a mechanism for recording this information and allowing new developers to browse the history
of the group for information that has already been discussed.

While this is not a direct support channel administrated by the NI Applications Engineering group, it gives you the tools to help and support each other (with some assistance from NI Applications Engineers if needed). You may also use this forum to provide feedback and information to NI about the needs for support and for new features.

Hello Angela,

Perhaps you can give us a quick description of what VeriStand is and what it does?

[Angela M]

Hello Ravens Fan,

I would definitely encourage you and others interested to check out ni.com/veristand which has some more detailed explanation, as this software does many things that are difficult to cover in a short post.

NI VeriStand is a software which helps users to configure and run a Real-Time test application.  This includes Hardware-in-the-Loop testing and model based control in a more configuration based environment than if you were to program this directly, in LabVIEW for instance.  It has many built in features to control timing, data communication, setup your Real-Time target configuration and more.  It is a standalone application, but has many ways to be customized to extend the software capabilities.

The Getting Started with NI VeriStand page has some demonstration videos which are a great way to get some more insight into this product.

I hope this helps, feel free to try it out as that really is the best way to better understand the software.

Regards,

Angela M
