I have been asked to program a TDK-Lambda power supply using LabVIEW and I have no idea where to start. The power supply will be used to power a chamber that runs for up to 96 hours. I found the drivers on the NI website that correspond to the power supply I am using but do not know how to use them. Please help...

There should be an example or two with the driver. Look at them.

Often companies ship some example VIs with the driver to show some usual usage scenarios. If you are totally a beginner in LabVIEW, you should start to learn it. This is a programming language, not 2 minutes to learn even the basic things. Do you have a SSP licence? Then you can access the Core 1-2-3, etc. online teaching material. You could spend a couple of weeks with these. If you have no access to these resources, there are planty of LV tutorials available, "google is your friend"...
When you have some basic idea about what you would like to do, and some idea about what the driver VIs should do, start to put together some test code. Be careful during testing that you do not damage anything like hardware, human, etc. 🙂 If you get some difficulties with your project post your VI here so people can help you. But (probably) no one will do your work entirely, show some effort. As I said, spend some weeks with LAbVIEW tutorials... Is this a school/university project?

Each Labview driver include simple examples which can help you start with device.
