LabView Student License

[maad]

If I buy the student license do I have access to the DSC module and the NI-DAQmx features as well?

Hi Maad,

I am an Applications Engineer at National Instruments UK and will help you with your enquiry.

The LabVIEW student edition includes the following LabVIEW aspects:

• LabVIEW Student Development Environment
• LabVIEW Control Design and Simulation Module
• LabVIEW MathScript RT Module
• LabVIEW LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Module
• LabVIEW Student Development Environment
• LabVIEW Control Design and Simulation Module
• LabVIEW MathScript RT Module
• LabVIEW LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Module
• NI Vision Development Module
• NI Vision Builder for Automated Inspection
• LabVIEW Digital Filter Design Toolkit
• LabVIEW Modulation Toolkit
• LabVIEW System Identification Toolkit
• LabVIEW Signal Express

The DAQms features are avaliable as a free download from ni.com/drivers

The Datalogging and Supervisory Control Module (DSC) is not included in the LabVIEW Student Edition. What aspects of this module were you interested in utilising?

If it is necessary that you use this module you would be best of contacting your local NI branch for more information.

If you require any further assistance feel free to respond.

I need the DSC module in order to conceive communication with an OPC server

An evaluation version of the DSC module can be downloaded here:

It should also be possible to implement a certain amount of OPC functionality directly in Labview without the DSC module. Here's a relevant discussion of OPC, as well as a webcast on connecting a PLC to Labview:
