What is this function building block??

Hi I am new to labview.  I have a basic example that resets a source measure unit, sources voltage, takes a current measurement, and then again resetting the meter.  I am just unsure of what the three yellow blocks are that I made a green box around??  If anyone can point me in the direction of where I can find them in lab view so I can read about them to understand what they are trying to do at those points.  Also I am wondering if after you have finished your design in lab view if you can make it into a .exe file that can be opened and run by an operator like you can in C or VB, or do you need the full software package installed on every PC??  Thanks alot for your help.

When looking at the diagram, hit CTRL-H and the help window will appear. Move your cursor over one of the functions (the "yellow blocks") and the help window will offer a short description of the thing you're hovering over.
Right-click on a function and choose HELP from the menu and you get a more detailed explanation.
Also I am wondering if after you have finished your design in lab view if you can make it into a .exe file that can be opened and run by an operator like you can in C or VB, or do you need the full software package installed on every PC?? 
Yes.  You need to have it in a project (if you labVIEW is newer than 8.0, I think), and make a build specification.
When you BUILD the build spec, you get an EXE file.
This EXE needs what's called the LabVIEW RunTime Engine installed on any machine that it runs on.
No fees or anything, but it has to be there. 
It does NOT need the whole LabVIEW DevSys .

  • F-4 Key on Windows 8.0 what is this function for?

    I accidentally pushed F-4 Key by itself, and my screen was wider and something pop up on the right side of my screen that had 4 choices of ???  My question is what is this function for??  And after I push it again it went back to normal.  I would also like to know what the other functions are for on top row F-1 to F-12 and yes I am a new user to this laptop from HP.  I know there is also windows + keys commands and I am interested in knowing more about what goes on with my pc.  F-3 has a icon that looks like a light, and yes I have a lot to learn,  Thanks in advance for anyone who wishes to give me help on these matters.

    Hi,
    On the top of F4 key, you should see a screen symbol and normally (w/o preesing F4) this will output to an external monitor. For Fn+F4, please read the following article:
        http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c00294488
    What is your machine ? Depeinding on the model/product of your machine, some keys my line up a bit difference but you can see symbol on each key and work this out. For example F2 and F3 are for brightness, F5 for backlit keyboard (not all machines). F6 to F11 for sound/video and F12 for wireless. On your machine, some keys may be swapping around but basically they all have one symbol each.

  • What are the required building blocks to place part of an application into the cloud?

    Hi there,
    I have a Windows client/server business management/accounting application written in VBA/Access.
    I am thinking of making small parts of the application available in the cloud, for example QUOTES.
    First of all, I am not sure if this forum is the right place to ask these questions!
    I would like users to be able to access their quotes via tabled or smart phone and be able to add or modify records.
    I am interested to find out what building blocks are required to achieve this.
    My initial thoughts are as follows:
    The user exports their quotes from the application (A) in XML format
    The user uploads the XML data into SQL server on my website (?)
    The user logs into a mobile app (B) that is connected to the SQL server
    The user adds/modifies records in app (B)
    The user then downloads their records in XML format from SQL server from my website (?)
    The XML data is read and updated in application (A)
    In terms of the SQL server I was also wondering if each user should have their own database or whether all users should use the same table QUOTES for example?
    Any hints or tips would be really appreciated and many thanks in advance...
    Have a wonderful day...
    Kind regards,
    Michael

    Hi Michael,
    I’m afraid that it is not the correct forum for this issue, since this forum is to discuss the VS IDE issue.
    I have a Windows client/server business management/accounting application written in VBA/Access.
    Just to make this issue clearly, is it related to the Office development like this MSDN document?
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee814735(v=office.14).aspx
    If it is related to the Office development, I suggest you post this issue to the
    Office development forum like this thread “How
    to move an Access App with VBA to the Cloud w/o re-coding? Amazon Web Services Virtual Machine ? Or What ?”.
    If not, please feel free to let me know, I will help you find the correct forum for this issue.

  • What does this Function do? (Homework help).

    I have this Assignment, and I can't figure out what this functions is actually trying to do.
    public class float1{
         public static void main(String[]arg){
              int i = 1<< 30 + 65534;
              float x = (float) + 1;
              int j = (int) x - 1;
              System.out.println(j);
    }     the int i = i<<30 + 65534; it's really confusing me. I have never seen that kind of statement in java. It prints 0 at the end, but if i change the numbers around, it will print a totally weird number.

  • What is this Project Builder For

    Hello Readers. i want to know why do we use project builder in short also is it used for creating a setup file for the project.
    Please mention some proper names for project builder books for oracle 8 available in the market.
    Thank you

    Project builder was a tool to manage your forms and reports applications
    Here is the documentation......
    http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/A97336_01/buslog.102/a73073/prjmgmt.htm#997046
    I say was because the last version was shipped with Forms 6i, so there is no Project Builder in Forms 9i or 10g and Oracle haven't supplied a replacement.

  • Building blocks in TOC reference page

  • What is the function of "Name Server"?

    We have a two server Cluster.  Each server runs a SIA Node with a CMS and all of the typical Servers.
    On Server1, if I look at the Metrics for any of my Servers (except CMS) it looks like this:
       Machine Name:  Server1.domain.com
       Name Server:  Server2.domain.com:6400
    On Server2, it looks like this (all local):
       Machine Name:  Server2.domain.com
       Name Server:  Server2.domain.com:6400
    I'm trying to understand why the servers on Server1 have a Name Server on the other side of the Cluster.  What is this function?  Is this correct?  Does it have anything to do with where the IFR/OFR is running?  Or maybe the sequence on which server starts first?
    The CMS Server on both of my Servers uses the Cluster Name for Name Server.

    Richard,
    If the BO Application is installed on single machine, It could be called standard/standalone installation.
    If the BO Application services scattered across the different system then called "Extended/Distributed Environment". When BO applications are scattered different system is referred as a NODE.
    I guess your BO Application is deployed on 2 nodes, In order to bind two different BO application systems together SAP has given wonderful concept called clustering.
    Cluster will bind 2 or more applications with single (CMS)repository and single IFRS/OFRS destination.
    Whenever you install BO Application, it asks you want to standalone installation or you want to join existing cluster.
    In your environment. The second machine has got BO installed first and first machine has got installed second while installing second time on first machine it had asked to whether you want to join existing cluster then your BO admin has been given second machine.
    Thats why you would able to see second machine nameserver on both machines
    Usually the BO Application servers are distributed based on their category.
    The BO4 platform mainly  categorised as below
    1. Web Application tier (Tomcat): Web Application tier is the tier that hosts server side components to handle user requests from Client tier and pass to Intelligence tier of underlying system for processing.
    2. Intelligence tier (BO services) is heart of Business Objects Enterprise system. It handles user requests, navigates them to appropriate server, maintain security information, audit information and stores report instances. BOE intelligence layer is composed of Central Management Server (CMS), File Repository Servers and Event Server.
    3. Processing tier ( BO services) interacts directly with database and generates reports. Processing layer is composed of  Job Servers,  Web Intelligence processing servers, Crystal processing servers, Dashboard servers.
    As best practices for the better performance, we need to have Distributed deployment( each tier needs to be placed in each server) for better performance.
