Select Your NI InstrumentStudioâ„¢ Software Edition

InstrumentStudio is no-code, interactive software that engineers use to validate hardware from instrument bring-up, measurement automation, and debugging. Get started for free with native front panels to control and configure NI PXI instruments. For additional test automation and integration of custom measurements, choose the InstrumentStudio Professional license.

 

For developing custom measurements, advanced automation for validation and production, and additional productivity for your test system, use InstrumentStudio with NI LabVIEW and NI TestStand, as part of the NI LabVIEW+ Suite.
