LIBAD4 - Unofficial LabVIEW wrapper

Unofficial LabVIEW wrapper for the LIBAD4 library used to communicate with BMC messesystem DAQs. The wrapper has only been tested for USB DAQs but should in principle work for all LIBAD4 compatible devices. If there are any compatibility issues make sure to raise an issue.

How to use

Due to licensing restrictions, the libad4.dll required by the wrapper must be independently acquired from here. Similarly, documentation can be acquired here.

Once downloaded and installed, locate the libad4.dll and copy it to the root directory of the cloned repository as shown below:

LIBAD4-LabVIEW
|-> controls
|-> examples
|-> subvi
|-> VIs
| .gitattributes
| .gitignore
| libad4.lvlib
| LICENSE
| README.md
| VI Tree.vi
| libad4.dll <-- *copy to here*

Now the libad4.lvlib can be used/imported into LabVIEW.

Examples

Usage of the wrapper should be straightforward for experienced LabVIEW users who have familiarized themselves with the official libad4.dll documentation. However, the below examples (currently a work in progress) should allow LabVIEW novices and those unfamiliar with the official documentation to get going right away.
