National Instruments first introduced LabVIEW graphical programming on the Mac in 1986. 25 years later, NI proudly continues to provide Mac users the latest PC-based technology, including full support for NI LabVIEW, more than 80 measurement devices, and driver software for data acquisition and instrument control, for developing custom measurement and automation systems based on macOS. LabVIEW on Mac OS X Support Page We've gone through the hard part, which you can read about on our blog entry, ' How to make a LabVIEW CIN for Mac OS X using Xcode '. It turns out that once you get past the difficulties of creating/compiling a CIN, writing the C code in them to talk to the LabJack is straightforward.

What Is LabVIEW?

LabVIEW is a graphical programming platform that helps engineers scale from design to test and from small to large systems. It offers unprecedented integration with existing legacy software, IP, and hardware while capitalizing on the latest computing technologies. LabVIEW provides tools to solve today’s problems—and the capacity for future innovation—faster and more effectively. It is available in English, French, German, Korean, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese.
