Can you please explain the term "CCS tool"? ("Carbon Capture and Storage"?)

What are you trying to achieve?

Best regards,
GerdW

These tools are usually controlled in one of two ways.

 

1) Either the tool provides its core functionality as a DLL and has a document that describes the functions in the DLL and how to call them. In that case you could use the Call Library Node to interface to it. But this has several gotchas: The tool provider must have a DLL and according documentation for it, and interfacing DLLs is not for the computer noob.

 

2) All these tools provide a command line interface. In that case you can test the commands in a Windows Command shell and then transfer them to LabVIEW using the System Exec function. Not as integrated but almost always easier, faster and better documented.

With some context the question becomes much more clear…

 

Most flashers I worked with so far allow to call an executable with parameters, like "flasher-app.exe -flash hexfile COMport".

Does your CodeComposer allow that too?

I guess you need to read the manual of your CodeComposer tool to learn about its abilities or you ask the TI support!
