[ATM] Anyone using Labview for telescope control?

[Gil McFarlane <gilboastro@yahoo.com>]

My son has become the "go to guy" at his physics lab
at UCSB for Labview application programming.  He was
showing  me the program - it is incredible!

I did a quick search and found that NASA and others
are using it for telescope control.  (see

It is mentioned a few times in the archives (most
recently by Don).  Has anyone used it for control of
their mounts?  It would seem to be a possible way to
integrate mount controls with guiding and camera
control.  Unfortunately the program is very pricey
unless you can swing an educational/student license.
