+ | < | ||
+ | The Zbrain System core team of Schmid Engineering visited the National Instruments annual worldwide | ||
+ | embedded system conference from Aug. 1. to Aug. 4. in Austin Texas. Visiting official threads, | ||
+ | participating closed door sessions and meetings with RnD, marketing and management provided a deep | ||
+ | insight of present and future projects related with embedded products. With this newsletter we would like | ||
+ | to share the news with our mutual customers. < | ||

+ | <!-- NI products | ||
+ | < | ||
+ | The C-Code generating engine is part of the following products: <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <b>NI LabVIEW Embedded Module for Analog Devices Blackfin</ | ||
+ | This module has been used to program most of the Zbrain System Targets. <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <b>NI LabVIEW Embedded Module for ARM Microcontrollers.</ | ||
+ | This module can be used to program tiny intelligent nodes with manageable complexity. <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <b>NI LabVIEW Microprocessor SDK</ | ||
+ | Used to program any 32bit microprocessor. <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <b>NI LabVIEW C Generator</ | ||
+ | Used to translate VIs to standard ANSII C-Code deployable on virtually any microprocessor. | ||
+ | |||
+ | <!-- Labview on Microprocessor | ||
+ | < | ||
+ | In collaboration with National Instruments, | ||
+ | all ZBrain targets. This module is using the c code generating engine with all its exciting new | ||
+ | features. | ||
+ | This NI ANSI-C-Code-Generator is a long-term NI product that will also get the full NI support in the | ||
+ | next versions of LabVIEW< | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | The following toolkits are now supported by the c generating engine: <br> | ||
+ | <a | ||
+ | href=" | ||
+ | LabVIEW Statechart Module | ||
+ | </a> <br> | ||
+ | <a | ||
+ | href=" | ||
+ | LabVIEW Control Design and Simulation Module | ||
+ | </a> <br> | ||
+ | <a | ||
+ | href=" | ||
+ | LabVIEW MathScript RT Module | ||
+ | </a> <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | A VI, dropped on a block diagram, is automatically syntax checked with all its sub VIs. <br> | ||
+ | If you drop a vi that would not be supported by the c generating engine, a warning is shown. Math script | ||
+ | is checked likewise. <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | The C Code produced by this next generation C code generating engine is more efficient and more | ||
+ | readable. <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | A big part of these improvements have been achieved by eliminating the parallel execution that produced | ||
+ | inefficient code with considerable overhead. All the code will be executed sequentially. However, Schmid | ||
+ | Engineering will provide solutions to execute program parts parallel in different threads. | ||
+ | allowing to run code with restrictive realtime constraints (eg. Control loop) along with slower | ||
+ | tasks (eg. GUI). <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | The c generating engine has no need anymore for a microprocessor specific target specification in the | ||
+ | project explorer. You always write your code in the "My Computer" | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | It will be possible to move existing code to the new environment. The SDK VIs from the 2009 Zsystem palette | ||
+ | will be supported by the 2011 and future versions of LabVIEW. Accessing of the IO will be done the same | ||
+ | easy way as today. Both environments (2009 and 2011/12...) can coexist on the same computer. | ||
+ | Existing code can be maintained in 2009 while developing new projects with the latest LabVIEW | ||
+ | version. <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | In addition to the current standard targets ( | ||
+ | <a href=" | ||
+ | <a href=" | ||
+ | and <a href=" | ||
+ | ) and customized targets, Schmid Engineering will now be able to support more processors and targets to | ||
+ | enhance its hardware portfolio. In the near future, Schmid Engineering will release even smaller modules | ||
+ | with lower costs and lower power consumption as well as modules with higher performance. <br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | Existing customers get anindividual upgrade offer based on your current serial number, LabVIEW Version | ||
+ | and SSP status, valid until january 31st of 2012. This offer includes upgrading to LabVIEW 2011 and the | ||
+ | standard NI ANSI-C-Code-Generator that is tweaked to the ZBrain targets with its ADI Blackfin processors. | ||
