Re: Summary of LabVIEW Resources and Comments
Thanks for all of the above posts, using this information I was finally able to get my USB-6009 running (I didn't have VISA installed). Now that the build season is over I should have time to play some more.

One thing that I want to try is using LabVIEW to simulate the operator control panel. It should be pretty easy using the digital outputs, but we also use switches with a resistor array to put multiple momentary switches into a single joystick input. I think I can use a 6009 analog output as a joystick input to the OI, but I haven't tried it yet.

I would like to graphically model the look of Omron industrial control switches. Does anyone know if I can put my own "skins" on the graphical components in LabVIEW?

Thanks again for the help...
