LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI include all the tools needed for
instrument control, data acquisition, analysis, and presentation. When
you order the LabVIEW Full Development System for Windows or the
LabWindows/CVI Full Development System for Windows, you also get
more than 500 complete instrument drivers, which are modular,
source-code programs that handle the communication with your
instrument to speed your application development.

Hardware Description
The VXIpc 800 Series controllers feature a modular, PCI-based local
bus design that makes it easy to use interchangeable daughterboards to
upgrade your controller to new microprocessors, without having to
replace the motherboard or enclosure.

Slot 0 Functionality
You can use the VXIpc 800 Series computers to achieve full VXI Slot 0
control of your VXI system. You can also install the VXIpc 800 in
another slot and use it in Non-Slot 0 mode. You do not have to change
any switches or jumpers when moving between these two modes, as the
VXIpc 800 can automatically detect whether it is installed in Slot 0 and
it will automatically enable or disable the Slot 0 onboard circuitry.
