NI Veristand creates real-time testing

National Instruments product story

Aug 19, 2009
National Instruments has announced NI Veristand 2009, an open, configuration-based software environment for creating real-time testing applications.
All of the common functionalities of a real-time test system are implemented inside NI Veristand, which creates hardware-in-the-loop and controlled environmental tests.
NI Veristand helps developers configure a multicore-ready, real-time engine capable of supporting third-party I/O interfaces including data acquisition and field-programmable gate array (FPGA)-based I/O interfaces as well as triggerable data-logging and stimulus-generation tasks.
Customers' control algorithms and simulation models can also be imported into NI Veristand from NI Labview software and other third-party modelling environments, including The Mathworks Simulink and ITI SimulationX software environments.
NI Veristand provides a variety of tools to interact with real-time testing applications.
The user interface is a run-time-editable workspace, so engineers can create and modify their user interfaces without interrupting real-time test system execution.
NI Veristand assists engineers in developing real-time test systems by giving them the ability to quickly capture the hardware I/O, simulation model and other real-time task settings using an interactive system explorer window.
These settings are saved in a system definition that is deployed to a real-time execution target such as a PXI system.
Engineers can then add user interface controls and indicators and map them to the system definition resources to interact with their real-time test systems.
They can also use stimulus profile editors to create stimulus and logging configurations that are deployed to the real-time execution target for deterministic execution.
