Chapter 5 Getting Started with Measurement Studio

Walkthrough: Creating a Measurement Studio Application with Web Forms Controls and Network Variable

Note To complete this walkthrough, you must have either the Measurement Studio

Professional or Measurement Studio Enterprise package installed for Visual Studio 2005

or later. This walkthrough will not work with the Measurement Studio Standard package.

Measurement Studio includes user interface controls, such as a waveform

graph control, and network variable functionality to transfer live

measurement data between applications over the network. This

walkthrough is designed to help you learn how to add network variable

functionality to a Web Forms application by taking you through the

following steps:

•Writing an array of data to the server—Using

NationalInstruments.NetworkVariable.NetworkVariable

BufferedWriter<TValue>, you will create and run a console

application that writes an array of values to the server.

•Setting up a Web Forms project—Using the Measurement Studio

Application Wizard, you will create a new project that references the

Measurement Studio Network Variable class library and Web Forms

controls.

•Configuring the network variable data source control—Using the

Toolbox and the NationalInstruments.NetworkVariable.

WebForms.NetworkVariableDataSource smart tag, you will add

and configure a data source control to your application.
