How to make robot code permanent for competition?

[Kevin-937]

Hi, we've been working with LABView for the build-season now, and we realized that we still do not know how to put the code permanently on the robot, since the code just vanishes everytime you disconnect the CRio from the laptop we are using. I've looked around here and there was a comment about real-time something, and a bad location in the rule books, but I've looked all over for that and obtained no results.

So, could someone here tell us where we need to go to figure out what to do, or better yet, give us easy-to-follow step by step instructions on how put code permanently on there. We have no expieriance with LABView, and the mentors we have only have a little expierance with it and don't know the answer either. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

A similar question was posted earlier this week.  Compiling and downloading your code to the cRIO is simple; follow the process explained here.

Alright, took me a while to read that, something a bit clearer would have been helpful, but this was what I needed.

Thanks for all your help, Nathand, even though it was just a link. Still, now that I asked the same question in a different way, people should be able to understand it a bit better.
