Creating Models in NI LabVIEW for Use in NI VeriStand

Process Summary

Note: Before you build your LabVIEW model, ensure that the connector pane of your VI is properly configured. When you import the model into NI VeriStand, terminals specified as required inputs are model inports, and recommended and optional inputs are specified as parameters. Outputs are always specified as outports.

To build a LabVIEW model for use in NI VeriStand, follow these steps:

1. Open your LabVIEW VI and select Tools»NI VeriStand»Generate NI VeriStand Model from VI.
2. When the dialog box appears, select a path for your LabVIEW model and click Build.
3. Once the build process is complete, click Finish. Your LabVIEW model is ready to use.

Using the Model DLL

You can now import the LabVIEW model into your System Definition just as you would any other model. NI VeriStand Help and the NI VeriStand instructional video contain more information about importing models into the System Definition. 

Required Software

To build models for NI VeriStand, you must have NI VeriStand, LabVIEW, and the LabVIEW Application Builder installed on your computer. No other software is required.
