How Do I Use the DataPlugin for The Mathworks, Inc. MATLAB® software in LabVIEW?Primary Software: LabVIEW Development Systems>>LabVIEW Base PackagePrimary Software Version: 1.0 Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A Secondary Software: N/A
Problem: I downloaded the DataPlugin for The MathWorks, Inc. MATLAB® software and I am able to use this in DIAdem. The documentation also says that I can use this with LabVIEW. I have found that no additional VIs were added to my functions palette. Am I able to write to a .mat file with this DataPlugin? Solution: The DataPlugin does not install any additional VIs to your functions palette. It instead only adds functionality to previously existing VIs. To read or write to a .mat file, you will need to use the storage VIs that are located in the functions palette under Programming»File I/O»Storage. You will need to open a reference to the file, read or write to it, and then close it with the storage express VIs. The file name of the DataPlugin (MATLAB) needs to be an input to the Open With Root VI. This creates a reference used by the storage VIs to allow you to interface with the .mat format.  This basic format can be applied to other DataPlugins as well. A sample VI showing how to write data to a .mat file can be found in the attachments section.
