How Users Use Elemental I/O Nodes (Embedded Targets)
Users create Elemental I/O items in the Project Explorer window by right-clicking a VI and selecting New»Elemental I/O from the shortcut menu. Users can then drag the Elemental I/O item from the Project Explorer window to the block diagram.
Users configure an Elemental I/O Node by right-clicking the node on the block diagram and selecting Properties from the shortcut menu. Users select configuration parameters you implement in the Elemental I/O implementation VIs.
When the Elemental I/O Node executes on the embedded target, the target executes LabVIEW code the Elemental I/O device defines. The Elemental I/O device has plug-in VIs for each type of I/O resource, which replace the Elemental I/O Node when executing on the embedded target. Most of the plug-in VIs have a resource name or channel number as an input, and compute the I/O result using whatever is valid for the target.
