This article should be used as a reference table to help you use the Find, Export, or Import functions from the System Configuration API in LabVIEW. It will also provide the valid strings for the Experts input terminal/parameter.
To get all of the available Experts terminal/parameter strings on a system, you can call the Get System Experts VI in the System Configuration API. This VI returns a string array of all the available Experts strings on the selected system.
The following table is a list of supported product lines and their associated Experts input strings. Note that some product lines may only be used with either the System Configuration Find or the Export/Import VIs, while others may be used with both. You may also leave the input empty to include all supported products.
