Creating A Labview Project And Running A Vi On An Fpga Target - National Instruments NI 5762 User Manual And Specifications

Creating a LabVIEW Project and Running a VI on an FPGA Target

This section explains how to set up your target and create an FPGA VI and host VI for data
communication. For more detailed information about acquiring data on your NI 5762R, refer to the
device-specific examples available in NI Example Finder.
Creating a Project
1. Launch LabVIEW, or if LabVIEW is already running, select File»New.
2. In the New dialog box, select Project»Empty Project and click OK. The new project opens in the
Project Explorer window.
3. Save the project as
Creating an FPGA Target VI
1. In the Project Explorer window, right-click My Computer and select New»Targets and
Devices.
2. In the Add Targets and Devices on My Computer dialog box, select the Existing Target or
Device option button and expand FPGA Target. The target is displayed.
3. Select your device and click OK. The target and target properties are loaded into the Project
Explorer window.
4. In the Project Explorer window, expand FPGA Target (RIOx, PXI-79xxR).
5. Right-click FPGA Target (RIOx, PXI-79xxR) and select New»FPGA Base Clock.
6. In the Resource pull-down menu, select IO Module Clock 0.
