LabVIEW SDK

SensorCloud provides VI's which allow your LabVIEW applications to communicate with SensorCloud. They are designed to work for desktop applications and embedded devices lik the NI CompactRIO. They make it simple to authorize devices, register sensors, and send data from within your LabView code.

Resources:

SensorCloud VI's (.zip) for LabVIEW 2011.

SensorCloud VI's (.zip) for LabVIEW 2010 SP1.

SensorCloud package (.vip). Get the VI Package Manager here.

Installation

From the .zip file: Download the SensorCloud VI's .zip file from the above resources. Unzip the file to a folder and place the SensorCloud folder in the <LabVIEW>\vi.lib directory. Place "sensorcloud.mnu" in the <LabVIEW>\menus\Categories directory.

From the .vip package: Get the VI Package Manager here. Select File >> Open Package File(s) and find the microstrain_lib_sensorcloud-x.x.x.x.vip file on your hard drive.

Authorization VI

The Authorization VI handles the authorization of your device with SensorCloud. To authorize your device you need your Device Serial and Password, which will be wired into the corresponding terminals. If the credentials provided to the VI are incorrect you will be prompted to enter them in again. The output terminal provides a Device Handle to the authorized device. Once you have authorized your device, periodic re-authorization will be handled while your VI is running.
