This file contains important information about LabVIEW SignalExpress 2.5, including known issues, installation instructions, and compatibility issues. Refer to Getting Started with LabVIEW SignalExpress for information about getting started with LabVIEW SignalExpress. You can access this PDF by selecting Help»Getting Started with»LabVIEW SignalExpress in the LabVIEW SignalExpress environment.
Place the LabVIEW SignalExpress CD in your CD-ROM drive and follow the prompts through the rest of the installation.
Note If you are using Windows 2000, you must install Service Pack 4 and all additional critical updates before you install LabVIEW SignalExpress
Complete the following steps to use LabVIEW SignalExpress with hardware.
To convert a LabVIEW SignalExpress project to a LabVIEW VI, you must have the LabVIEW 7.1 Full Development System or later installed.
LabVIEW SignalExpress also installs the NI Measurement Studio Network Variable and WindowsForms support in the .NET Global Assembly Cache for runtime purposes.
