National Instruments NI ELVIS III User Manual

Download the NI ELVIS III Soware Bundle from ni.com/academic/download.
Apart from the required LabVIEW soware to develop applications, you may also
need to install some of the optional soware based on the type of the application
you want to create:
■
To customize the FPGA on the NI ELVIS III, install the LabVIEW FPGA Module.
■
To create applications that are controls specific, you may need to install
additional NI soware products, such as the LabVIEW Control Design and
Simulation Module.
To verify that you have successfully set up a programming environment, you can
create a simple application to control an onboard device on the NI ELVIS III.
