This new version of LabVIEW NXG introduces specific functionality and enhances existing benefits, particularly for engineers who develop, implement, and manage automated measurement and test systems. This release introduces WebVI, a type of VI for developing web-based user interfaces (UIs) that can be deployed on any web browser (PC, tablet, or phone) without additional plugins or installers. Furthermore, to reduce hardware setup time, the new SystemDesigner feature automatically discovers connected hardware, displays installed drivers, and links directly to available NI and third-party instrument drivers if they are not already installed.
 
Moreover, this latest version expands hardware support to thousands of traditional instruments and PXI modular instrumentation. LabVIEW NXG now also provides capabilities such as object-oriented programming and integration with the industry-leading test management software, TestStand.
 
NI designed several features in LabVIEW NXG, such as WebVI, to be used with existing LabVIEW applications without requiring software redesign. Engineers can reuse test code, including code written with LabVIEW NXG or LabVIEW, through a new package manager interface based on industry-standard package formats.
 
"When developing test systems using LabVIEW and LabVIEW NXG, I can work with both versions and take advantage of the unique benefits of each," said Brian Hoover, test software architect at Samsung SDI. "With this next phase of LabVIEW NXG, I can integrate new ways to visualize data, either on the PC with vector-based UI graphics or in the browser for secure hosting, and into my existing LabVIEW applications to simplify test result reporting."
