Quanser Rapid Control Prototyping Toolbox for LabVIEW
The Quanser Rapid Control Prototyping (QRCP) is an add-on software for the NI LabVIEW™ graphical development environment. This powerful control design tool spans the spectrum of design, from simulation to control implementation. It significantly simplifies access to Quanser control experiments by taking care of all standard low-level software and hardware configurations. The resulting VIs are clear and match the standard system block diagrams, helping to bridge the gap between theory and practical implementations.
QRCP adds the ease of use and speed of development to control design programming in LabVIEW, significantly shortening the controller development cycle, and expanding capabilities of the NI LabVIEW Control and Simulation Module. With expanded compatibility and support for NI myRIO, NI CompactRIO and PXI, you can teach and perform an advanced control research using LabVIEW.
