The Control Design Toolkit provides two tools: an assistant and a
library of VIs for designing a controller based on a model of a plant.
Both tools enable you to complete the entire control design process
from creating a model of the controller to synthesizing the controller.

Without prior knowledge about programming in LabVIEW, you can use the
interactive LabVIEW Control Design Assistant to develop models that
reflect the behavior of single-input single-output (SISO) systems.
Using the Control Design Assistant, you can load or create a model of
a plant into the Control Design Assistant, analyze the time or
frequency response, and then synthesize a controller. The Control
Design Assistant has windows in which you can immediately see the
mathematical equation and graphical representation that describe the
model. You also can view the response data and the configuration of
the controller.

The Control Design Toolkit also provides VIs that you can use to
develop mathematical models, analyze the models to learn about their
dynamic characteristics, and create controllers to achieve certain
dynamic characteristics. These Control Design VIs enable you to
customize a LabVIEW block diagram to achieve specific goals. You
also can use other LabVIEW VIs and functions to enhance the
functionality of the application. Unlike creating a project with
the Control Design Assistant, creating a LabVIEW application using
these VIs requires basic knowledge about programming in LabVIEW.
