The HIL and Real-Time Test Software Suite is a collection of software for validating embedded software and running model-based physical tests. The HIL and Real-Time Test Software Suite combines the LabVIEW integrated development environment (IDE) with application software and modules to create real-time test applications. With this suite, you can develop simulation models and control algorithms and deploy them to real-time hardware. You also can ensure that your test system is flexible enough to meet nearly any application requirement by adding custom functionality and can perform high-speed simulation and processing on NI reconfigurable I/O hardware.

RFmx Noise Figure is application software with which you can measure noise figure, gain, Y-factor, effective temperatures, and hot and cold power. It provides simple access to advanced optimization techniques such as multimeasurement parallelism and multi-DUT measurements. The result is fast, high-quality measurements with minimal software development efforts. RFmx Noise Figure is completely interoperable with all RFmx APIs.

InsightCM online asset monitoring software is for subject matter experts and maintenance professionals who need full access to waveform data, multiple sensor technology inputs, connectivity to existing enterprise software packages, and a variety of configuration options for alarms and data management. InsightCM can connect to deployment-ready NI Monitoring Devices, or you can use the Software Development Kit for InsightCM to customize it to integrate with third-party hardware and software. You can use this flexible technology to monitor a larger percentage of your asset mix and drive predictive maintenance programs.

Analysis Server helps you and your team automate data analysis and report generation on a server. You can make data-driven decisions with confidence by reusing DIAdem and Python scripts created by team domain experts, interactively setting up logic and triggering options to decide when analysis scripts run, and using multiple options for server configuration.

DataFinder Server helps you search and manage your team's measurement data regardless of location or file type with automated data standardization and an automatically built, searchable index that anyone can use to find the data they need.

InstrumentStudio is free application software that provides an integrated approach to interactive PXI measurements.

FlexLogger is application software that helps you build flexible, scalable data-logging systems with NI data acquisition hardware, no programming required. You can use sensor-specific configuration workflows to quickly set up, visualize, and log a mix of synchronized measurements from analog sensors, digital signals, and vehicle communication buses. You can also generate voltage, current, or digital signals to drive actuators or control set points, which can be automated by event triggers in response to changing conditions. FlexLogger automatically saves metadata documenting your test configuration, so you can quickly trace test results and make comparisons across multiple tests. You can interactively review test results in the integrated data viewer to visually inspect your data and draw conclusions.

VeriStand application software helps you configure I/O channels, data logging, stimulus generation, and host communication for NI real-time hardware. You can also import simulation models and control algorithms, respond to events with configurable alarms, and enable test automation with macro recording, TestStand, .NET, and other software. You can interact with and monitor application data, alarm states, and system execution metrics using a run-time editable user interface. Although you don't need programming knowledge, you can also use a variety of software environments such as LabVIEW, ANSI C/C++, Python, and ASAM XIL to add custom functionality to VeriStand.

Requirements Gateway helps you specify which applications, tests, and simulation models correlate with documented requirements to capture traceability information. You can use Requirements Gateway to capture and compare project snapshots to see differences and how requirements and coverage change over time. This application software integrates into LabVIEW, LabWindows CVI, and TestStand, as well as common tools for documenting requirements, such as Telelogic DOORS, IBM Rational RequisitePro, and Microsoft Office.
