Take Multiple Keyboard Inputs Using LabVIEW

[LanxiZ]

Overview

This example demonstrates how to take multiple keyboard inputs at the same time.

Description

Multiple keyboard signals are needed to be captured when several keys are pressed at once in our application.
In this example, the Initialize Keyboard function is used with the Acquire Input Data function to obtain multiple data from the keyboard. The accuracy of the signal acquisition process also depends on the specification of the keyboard you are using.
