Can I program an HMI in C# and use NI drivers to connect to my devices?

Hello,
I have intermediate experience with GUI programming using C#, and was wondering if it was possible for me to directly interface in C# with NI drivers to create an HMI.  It just seems like it would take a lot more time to design the interface using LabVIEW; on the flip side, data acquisition using just C# would probably take even longer - unless I can somehow use the NI drivers to communicate.
Thanks for any help!
Sam

I would say the answer to both of your questions is yes.  But why would you want to?  You should probably looking into the products for LabWindows/CVI and Measurement Studio.  They provide the Labview controls and would provide closer integration with a C-type language.  I don't know why you would try to program a GUI in C# and not do it in Labview.  If you have "intermediate experience" in GUI programming in C#, I don't see why you would have any trouble in figuring out how to do the same thing in LabVIEW.  The Labview Basics 1 and 2 course are very good, as well as the intermediate courses.  They also have some online tutorials and guides on the NI website.

  • When streaming a movie with the new Apple TV, and using a DSL Internet connection, all audio sound works, e.g., the music track, but the audio track with the actor's voices, does not work. What can I do?

    Hi Brian,
    Thanks restoring and restarting didn't fix my problem - i have started it fresh and still it doesn't work. Basically I press ONCE on the remote, after the machine has not had any commands for 10 minutes, and the cursor skips from one end of the menu to the other - so I can't choose network or update software etc - I sometimes manage to stop it randomly in the middle of the menu if I press on a command in the middle of the cursor skipping all the menu steps...not sure what the problem is but I have basically not used my brand new apple tv since I bought it for that reason! I should call Apple support I suppose! grrrr hate wasting time with stuff like this!
    Thanks for your help though!

  • Had to uninstall iWork trial since I bought the pages app and it wouldn't let me print or save.  Now the app store says I have pages installed but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it.  I'm not very computer savvy and am getting frustrated!

    Ooops, guess I didn't need to post everything in the title - sorry!  I bought the pages app - but couldn't save or print so with some online searching found that I had to uninstall the iWork trial which had expired.  I did that - but now I can't figure out how to re-install the pages app!!  The app store says it's installed, but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it.  I'm not very computer savvy - and am a first time Mac user and am getting extremely frustrated!  I e-mailed some help center and they can't seem to help me either.  I would appreciate any help/advice that can fix my problem - thanks in advance!!

    OK Apple has stuffed up the demo version upgrade process so the first thing you need to do is get rid of the demo.
    That includes getting rid of the files in the system.
    The instructions how to do that are here:
    Note That where you see / that is the sequence of folders, each nested inside each other.
    User/Library/Preferences the com.apple.iwork.Keynote.plist
    Means the User (you, the little home icon, whatever you are called on your computer) then the Library folder inside that and then the Preferences folder inside that.
    Lion initially hides the System folders from you so you have to go to the Finder > Menu > hold down the option key and click on GO > Library to see it.

  • Can I purchase an IPhone 5 that is factory unlocked, so that I can insert my t-mobile sim card and use it on my service from the apple store?

    Can I purchase an IPhone 5 that is factory unlocked, so that I can insert my t-mobile sim card and use it on my service from the apple store?

    Not in the US, at the present time. Apple has not started selling officially unlocked iPhone 5's in the US, & has not announced when they will.

  • Can I create a "stage" in Animate and use it in Muse to create a responsive site?

    I want to use Muse to build my site and Animate for some elements. I need a responsive site. Muse does not do that but Animate does. That is crazy! How can I combine them? There has got to be a way. Someone smarter than I has figured it out I am sure, I am hoping they chime in.
    Can I create the "stage" in Animate and use it in Muse?

    You are probably right but I was looking for the ease in creating only one and letting it do the work.
    Now that I think about it....my site will have video embedded and a link for Ustream. That won't work on a mobile device if it is part of a responsive design will it?
    Oh, there is soooo much to all of this!
    Newbie anxiety!
    This is why I chose Muse and Animate, I am too new to code it on my own.

  • My mum is always using my iPad and I want to set mode if you like that she can log in as some one different and use apps she likes and I can use a diFferent log in and use different apps and stuff

    My mum is always using my iPad and I want to set mode if you like that she can log in as some one different and use apps she likes and I can use a diFferent log in and use different apps and stuff

    iOS 7 does not support multiple user accounts like you want.
    If all the apps are different, you could set her up with her own page of apps, then just show her how to get to her apps page, or just buy her an iPad for herself.

  • Can i by iphone 5c from usa and use it in Belgium

    can i by iphone 5c from usa and use it in Belgium???

    Planning on coming to the US to do so? Factored in import duties? Aware that your warranty/support will only be valid in the US? Aware that the US phone most likely won't support LTE where you live?
    Not a good idea, but the phone will work.

  • Can I buy ipad in an appstore and use it in Russia?

    Can I buy ipad in an appstore and use it in Russia?

    You can buy an iPad in store yes - you can't buy online from, for example, the US online store as none of the Apple stores ship overseas. If you are buying a 3G version then the US Verizon model is CDMA based and doesn't use micro-sim cards; the AT&T version does use micro-sim cards so you should be able to swap in a local sim card.

  • Can Internet Explorer (IE) be downloaded to and used on the late 2008 model of iMac running OS X 1.9.5?

    Can Internet Explorer (IE) be downloaded to and used on the late 2008 model of iMac running OS X 1.9.5? If yes, where can it be downloaded from?

    Only if you run Windows. IE does not work on a Mac without Windows.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows 7 or Windows 8.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. A more recent comparison of Parallels, VM Fusion, and Virtual Box is found at Virtualization Benchmarks- Parallels 10 vs. Fusion 7 vs. VirtualBox. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard and later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • Can I buy iphone 4 in Hongkong and use it in USA

    Can I buy iphone 4 in Hongkong and use it in USA...???
    will it have some troubles when...like upgrade?

    All iphones sold from official sources in Hong Kong are unlocked & will work on any GSM carriers network with the appropriate activated sim, including the USA. Note however, warranty & support are country specific & the phone would have to be returned to Hong Kong for any and all warranty & support issues. Make sure you purchase from an official source, non-official sources hack the phone to unlock it(their prices are often cheaper) and this will lead to nothing but problems.

    Sync photos to the Apple TV through iTunes normally; one of those will be chosen randomly for the screensaver by the Apple TV. If less than 25 are synced, a default picture may appear.

    There are no officially unlocked iPhone 5's available, in the US, at the present time. No announcement, as to availability has been made. The only unlocked iPhone, available now, is the iPhone 4 or 4S. Either of these versions will work, but will have no warranty or support in India. They can only be purchased directly from Apple, no where else.
