The I/O Node Implementation VI is the only required plug-in VI to implement an I/O resource. You must have at least one I/O Node Implementation VI for each I/O resource you define using the Elemental I/O wizard. If you have multiple I/O Node Implementation VIs, the I/O Specify Node VI determines which I/O Node Implementation VI to call. The I/O Node Implementation VI runs on the embedded target, so anything that is valid for the target is allowed in this VI.
Logically, the I/O Node Implementation VI behaves as if the Elemental I/O Node has been replaced with a call to this VI with constants wired for the attributes and properties. The Elemental I/O framework passes the project attributes and the node attributes to the I/O Implementation VIs for the I/O item.
