NI CompactRIO 19.1 and Drivers

The National Instruments team is pleased to announce the availability of CompactRIO 19.1 is NI driver software that provides support for identifying, programming, and deploying CompactRIO systems, and also provides support for the CompactRIO Controller, CompactRIO Chassis, and CompactRIO Single-Board Controller.

What's New in NI CompactRIO Device Drivers June 2019
Added software support in LabVIEW 2019 for the following new C Series Modules:
- NI 9252
- NI 9253

CompactRIO is a rugged, reconfigurable embedded system containing three components: a processor running a real-time operating system (RTOS), a reconfigurable field-programmable gate array (FPGA), and interchangeable industrial I/O modules. The real-time processor offers reliable, predictable behavior and excels at floating-point math and analysis, while the FPGA excels at smaller tasks that require high-speed logic and precise timing. Often CompactRIO applications incorporate a human machine interface (HMI), which provides the operator with a graphical user interface (GUI) for monitoring the system’s state and setting operating parameters.

LabVIEW is a graphical programming environment used by millions of engineers and scientists to develop sophisticated control systems using graphical icons and wires that resemble a flowchart. It offers integration with thousands of hardware devices and provides hundreds of built-in libraries for advanced control, analysis, and data visualization—all for creating user-defined systems more quickly. The LabVIEW platform is scalable across multiple targets and OSs, and, in the case of CompactRIO, LabVIEW can be used to access and integrate all of the components of the reconfigurable I/O (RIO) architecture.

The real-time controller contains a processor that reliably and deterministically executes LabVIEW Real-Time applications and offers multirate control, execution tracing, onboard data logging, and communication with peripherals. Additional options include redundant 9 to 30 VDC supply inputs, a real-time clock, hardware watchdog timers, dual Ethernet ports, up to 2 GB of data storage, and built-in USB and RS232 support
