Does LabVIEW 8.6 support the NXT toolkit?

[LEGOAUSTIN]

Does LabVIEW 8.6 support the NXT toolkit?, the NXT toolkit 1.0.1 patch does not give instructions on how to load it with LabVIEW 8.6.   Does anyone know how to load the patch with LabVIEW 8.6?

Hi LEGOAUSTIN,

Check out the forum dedicated to Lego: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board?board.id=beta18. It is largely community driven but sometimes NI employees post.

I would also talk to Lego about NXT support. Check out his KB on the issue: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/59F9356834A0E85086257244007A3354?OpenDocument.

What I can give you in the meantime is to ensure you've done the right order:

1. Install the LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Toolkit v1.0
2. Restart the computer
3. Install the LEGO patch 1.0.1

As for explicit support in LabVIEW 8.6, it doesn't appear to be any right now and I cannot comment on the future.

A quick Google Search came up with this as a possible work around: http://forums.nxtasy.org/index.php?showtopic=3277
