InstrumentStudio

Introduced in NI-DMM 18.1

When you install NI‑DMM, you can monitor, control, and record measurements from supported devices using InstrumentStudio. InstrumentStudio is a software-based front panel application that allows you to perform interactive measurements on several different device types, including DMMs, in a single program.

Note   InstrumentStudio support was first available in NI‑DMM 18.1.

InstrumentStudio is automatically installed when you install the NI‑DMM driver. You can access InstrumentStudio in one of the following ways:

  • From the Windows start menu, select National Instruments»InstrumentStudio [year]. This launches InstrumentStudio and runs a soft front panel populated with devices detected on your system.
  • From Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX), select a device and then click Test Panels.... This launches InstrumentStudio and runs a soft front panel for the device you selected.
