Greetings! I'm new to Labview (we have 6.1) but a longtime Visual Basic programmer and designer/tech. I've been tasked with running a long series of software acceptance tests on one of our product consoles and I can see a great potential for automating it to shorten cycle time and reduce errors. Specifically, I want to design a code module that periodically captures data from the DAQ and saves it to a file, then prompts the user to change a value on the console and continue. At the conclusion of the test the user will print the contents of the file for a record. Problem is, I can't find the manuals at this facility and am having trouble finding resources on the internet. Can anyone point me toward a good beginner's starting point? Many thanks!
