The Local Area Networks Laboratory Software is a software add-on for LabVIEW. This add-on provides 14 hands-on experiments based on Educational Laboratory Virtual Instrumentation Suite (NI ELVIS) II/II+ and the myDAQ Student Data Acquisition Device. With the add-on, you can access and view instructions during a lab. The add-on can display results as real-time plots or scope traces. You can also use the Strength of Materials Laboratory Software to export results in the Microsoft Excel file format.
