The Analog Input VIs
The Analog Input VIs are used to perform analog input functions.
To access the ADAC Analog Input VIs, choose Functions

Libraries
>> ADAC >> Analog Input.
ADAC has four types of analog input VIs:
•
Easy Analog Input VIs
Located in the top row of the Analog Input palette, the Analog
Input Easy VIs are created using the ADAC Analog Input
Intermediate and the ADAC Analog Input Utilities VIs. The Easy
VIs are used to perform simple analog input functions; they are the
easiest VIs to use, however, they provide the least amount of user
flexibility.
•
Intermediate Analog Input VIs
Located in the second row of the Analog Input palette, the Analog
Input Intermediate VIs were built using the ADAC Analog Input
Advanced VIs and the ADAC Analog Input Utilities VIs. The
Intermediate VIs group the features of the Analog Input Advance
VIs to provide the user with an easier programming interface than
the Advanced VIs.
•
Utilities Analog Input VIs
Accessed by clicking on the “AI UTIL” icon in the Analog Input
palette, the Analog Input Utilities VIs were built using the ADAC
Analog Input Advanced VIs. The Utility VIs group the common
features of the Analog Input Advance VIs to provide the user with
an easier programming interface than the Advanced VIs.
•
Advanced Analog Input VIs
Accessed by clicking on the “AI ADV” icon in the Analog Input
palette, the Analog Input Advanced VIs were built using the
ADAC Analog Input Advanced Function VIs. The Advanced VIs
are used to build the Intermediate VIs functions; they are the most
complicated to use, however, the Advanced VIs provide the
greatest amount of user programming flexibility.
