For worldwide use of your software created with LabVIEW
- Display of user interfaces in many languages
- On the fly switching of languages with same character coding
- Integrated language management
Applications with LTK
- LabVIEW application usage in a familiar language
- Display of multibyte characters such as Chinese
- On the fly switching of languages with same character coding
- Adjustment of text and labels without changing the software code
- Language-dependent adaptation of font and font size
Programming with LTK

Software & Dokumentation
- Our installation software allows you to test almost all features for 30 days. You can download the software from our Download Center. The trial version can be converted to a full version at any time.
- In our Download Center you can also find the add-on documentation.
License purchase
- You can find all licenses with further information in our shop.
We have two different license types:
- The LTK Development License is required for the development of LabVIEW software containing LTK functions.
- The LTK Deployment License is required for the distribution of a LabVIEW executable containing LTK functions.
LTK Development License
This license is a single seat license for a single developer. It is used in conjunction with a LabVIEW development environment. The use of the LTK Development License requires a LabVIEW development license. An LTK Development License allows the installation and non-concurrent use of the LTK on up to three computers by the same developer.
LTK Deployment License
This license allows the distribution of a LabVIEW executable containing LTK functions. A deployment is defined as a running EXE application on a specific PC. This means you have to count the number of the PCs where you plan to deploy your final application (i.e. build executable or EXE-file).
So if you build an application, which will be installed 5 times, you will need 5 LTK Deployment Licenses. We provide bundles with 1, 25, 100 and an unlimited number of deployment licenses.
One target PC counts just as one deployment, e.g. if you provide an update or bug-fix of your software to the same computer you will not have to increase the count of deployments.
