Chapter 1 Introduction Software Programming Choices NI-Motion is a simple but powerful high-level application programming interface (API) that makes programming the 7340 easy. All setup and motion control functions are easily executed by calling into a dynamically-linked library (DLL). You can call these libraries from C, Microsoft Visual Basic, and other high-level languages. Full function sets are available for LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and other industry-standard software programs. Natio
