PRESENTATION
2017 - Users Conference - San Francisco - Academic Symposium
National Instruments & OSIsoft Academic Program Partnership
In this session you will learn how National Instruments (NI) and OSIsoft have aligned to allow bi-directional data transmission between the PI System and NI’s LabVIEW software platform, so that operational data from various types of NI devices can be written in real-time in the PI System—and so that values from the PI System can be read into LabVIEW. You will hear about typical integration use cases for academic customers, which will be followed by a live demonstration. The session will conclude with instructions for how PI System users can download the required software, example files, documentation, and supporting videos.
