The long awaited BrainStem LabVIEW API is finally here!  

Well, kind of...  

Currently, the API has only been completed for the USBHub2x4 and the USBHub3P+. However, the framework has been laid for all BrainStem devices and USB hubs, and we will soon announce when that has been completed as well.

Two example projects for USBHub2x4 With National Instruments

We've recently been getting questions regarding the use of the Acroname USBHub2x4 from within National Instruments TestStand test management software. So we put together two example projects which wraps the BrainStem2 library and provides the critical interfaces you need to do basic things like enabling and disabling a downstream port.

Check out our new YouTube video "Up and running with BrainStem using our Python API".

This video details how to properly configure your system to communicate with our Brainstem modules.  It includes: installing Python, pip, and the BrainStem API (.whl).  Once everything is up and running a basic example using a USBStem module is shown.  Configuration, along with the examples, are shown for both Windows and Macintosh platforms (also compatible with Linux).
