Use script nodes to execute math scripts in LabVIEW. LabVIEW provides script nodes for the LabVIEW MathScript syntax, the MATLAB® language syntax, and the Xmath syntax.

Note  You must have a licensed copy of the MATLAB software version 6.5 or later or the Xmath software installed on your computer to use the MATLAB script node or the Xmath script node because these script nodes invoke the MATLAB software script server and the Xmath script server, respectively, to execute the scripts. The MathScript Node, MATLAB script node, and Xmath script node are available only on Windows.
