With LabVIEW 2011 all generated code was executed serial. This reduced the application structure to a single loop.

With the update 4.2.0 for LabVIEW 2013 of Zbrain SDK it is possible to run multiple tasks in parallel with different priorities.

The key features are:

• Up to 5 user defined tasks per application.
• Free definition of priority per task.
• C Code generation settings per task.
• Preemptive or cooperative task scheduling.
• Communication between tasks via messages and shared memory.
• Synchronize tasks to events (interrupts).
