Some oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, or custom data loggers shipped with a front panel built in LabVIEW 6.1. The installer provided the "Exclusive" runtime to avoid conflicts with newer NI software on the same PC.
Because this version dates back to the early 2000s, its requirements are extremely low by modern standards but highly specific regarding OS compatibility. Requirement Minimum Specification Recommended Pentium III / Celeron 866 MHz Pentium 4 or better 64 MB - 256 MB Disk Space 65 MB (Typical installation) 300 MB (Full suite) OS Compatibility Windows NT 4.0 (SP3+), 98, 2000, XP Windows XP / 2000 Internet Explorer 5.0+ IE 5.5 (SP2) for remote panels Key Features of the 6.1 Era
The year is 2026, but inside the windowless basement of the Sector 7 research wing, it might as well be 2001.
