LabVIEW Core 2

The LabVIEW Core 2 course is an extension of LabVIEW Core 1 and teaches you to use common design patterns to successfully implement and distribute LabVIEW applications for research, engineering, and testing environments. Topics covered include programmatic control of your user interface, implementation of parallel loops, creating an event-driven applications, managing configuration settings in configuration files, and developing an error handling strategy for an application.

LabVIEW Core 2 is available to PHYS 318 students as part of the LabVIEW Student License.

2. Creating an Event-Driven User Interface

This lesson teaches how to create an application that responds to user interface events using a variety of event-driven design patterns.

  • Event-Driven Programming
  • User Interface Event Handler Design Pattern
  • Event-Driven State Machine Design Pattern
  • Producer/Consumer (Events) Design Pattern
