Programming VIs and Functions (PDA Module, Touch Panel Module)
Owning Palette: PDA Module and Touch Panel Module VIs and Functions
Use the Programming VIs and functions as the basic building blocks for a PDA or Touch Panel VI.
| Subpalette | Description |
|---|---|
| Application Control VIs and Functions | Use the Application Control VIs and functions to programmatically control PDA and Touch Panel VIs and applications. |
| Array Functions | Use the Array functions to create and manipulate arrays. |
| Boolean Functions | Use the Boolean functions to perform logical operations on single Boolean values or arrays of Boolean values. |
| Comparison Functions | Use the Comparison functions to compare Boolean values, strings, numeric values, arrays, and clusters. |
| File I/O VIs and Functions | Use the File I/O VIs and functions to open and close files, read from and write to files, create directories and files you specify in the path control, retrieve directory information, and write strings, numbers, arrays, and clusters to files. |
| Graphics & Sound VIs | Use the Graphics & Sound VIs to create custom displays, import and export data from graphics files, and play sounds. |
| Numeric Functions | Use the Numeric functions to create and perform arithmetic and complex mathematical operations on numbers and to convert numbers from one data type to another. Use the VIs and functions on the Elementary and Special Functions and VIs palette to perform trigonometric and logarithmic functions. |
| String VIs and Functions | Use the String VIs and functions to concatenate two or more strings, extract a subset of strings from a string, convert data into strings, and format a string for use in a word processing or spreadsheet application. |
| Structures | Use the structures to build VIs. |
| Synchronization VIs and Functions | Use the Synchronization VIs and functions to synchronize tasks executing in parallel and to pass data between parallel tasks. |
| Time, Dialog, & Error VIs and Functions | Use the Time, Dialog, & Error VIs and functions to manipulate the speed at which an operation executes, retrieve time and date information from the computer clock, and create dialog boxes to prompt users with instructions. |
| Waveform VIs and Functions | Use the Waveform VIs and functions to build waveforms that include the waveform values, channel information, and timing information, and to set and retrieve waveform attributes and components. |
