Discontinued NXG support; focused entirely on LabVIEW Current Architecture.
Engineers can analyze system stability and performance using classical and modern control techniques. The module includes interactive utilities for:
Pre-built models for common systems:
Marked by NI's transition toward new web-based licensing frameworks and package management ecosystems.

2020 was a massive architectural year for LabVIEW as a whole. The Control Design and Simulation Module benefited immensely from backend performance improvements, particularly in code compilation and execution speed. Additionally, 2020 saw the expansion of supported targets for deployment, allowing engineers to transition simulations from standard desktop PCs to highly specialized, industrial real-time processors without rewriting their simulation logic. 4. LabVIEW 2021 - The Ultimate Ecosystem Integration
Furthermore, his code was heavy. The Simulation Loop in 2018 was deterministic, but integrating it with his newer third-party sensors was clunky. He felt like he was forcing modern hardware to speak an older language. [ Plant Modeling ] ──> [ Linear Analysis
By 2020, NI recognized that not everyone wants to build models from scratch in LabVIEW. Many engineers develop plants in MATLAB/Simulink or Python (with SciPy/Control libraries). The 20.0 release added robust support for version 2.0 Co-simulation and Model Exchange.
An automotive supplier uses a cRIO-9045 (2019 era) to validate a PMSM field-oriented control (FOC). The plant model (motor + inverter) runs on the LabVIEW Control & Simulation Module as an RT simulation, outputting simulated phase currents. The actual FOC controller (target hardware) reads these currents and returns PWM duty cycles. outputting simulated phase currents.
