Motor Simulation using Labview
Graduate Lab
Lab 1 :- Introduction to LabVIEW
LabVIEW (short for Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench) is a system-design platform and development environment for a visual programming language from National Instruments. It uses a graphical programming language called G to produce its code. LabVIEW is commonly used for data acquisition, instrument control, and industrial automation on a variety of platforms including Microsoft Windows, various versions of UNIX,
Linux, and Mac OS X.
LabVIEW programs/subroutines are called virtual instruments (VIs). Each VI has three components: a block diagram, a front panel and a connector panel. The front panel is built using controls and indicators. Controls are inputs – they allow a user to supply information to the VI. Indicators are outputs – they indicate, or display, the results based on the inputs given to the VI. The block diagram contains the graphical source code. All of the objects placed on the front panel will appear on the block diagram as terminals. The block diagram also contains structures and functions which perform operations on controls and supply data to indicators. The connector panel is used to represent the VI in the block diagrams of other, calling VIs.
In Lab 1 we were given 3 assignments so that we get acquainted to the LabVIEW environment and know its general command and functions
Assignment 1 :Build a VI to perform basic mathematical functions like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
Procedure :1:-In the Front Panel window insert 2 numeric controls and label them as variable 1 and 2.
2:- In the Front Panel window insert 4 numeric indicators and label them as Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and
Division and Insert the STOP button in the front panel.
3:- Now , in the block diagram window , properly wire variable 1 and 2 with different numeric indicators by using different numeric functions (like add, subtract etc.). Run the program now to test
