LabPro Commands


In this example VI, data is collected from a Vernier Auto-ID sensor connected to Channel 1 by sending command strings.

Our Toolkit of Express VIs and subVIs were created so that you would not have to learn the low-level commands required to control the LabPro. This means that when you are studying our example programs you probably will not see the commands unless you start digging into the Express VIs and subVIs. And in most cases, when you write your own custom programs, you will not have to create and send LabPro commands. But we think it is very helpful, when you are just getting started, or if you are teaching programming to students, to understand how these low-level commands control the LabPro.

So, before you start jumping into writing custom programs, or teaching students how to program the LabPro, we suggest that you take a look at these three example VIs that demonstrate how to program the LabPro using the low-level commands.
