FPGA compiler Server status says idle but Status says compiling VHDL

when i compile my FGPA vi file , after some time in the compile server window "Server status" shows "idle.." but the status box shows "Compiling VHDL".

It stays in this condition for a long time about 30 mins. Why is this happening? I am also attaching the screenshot of the compile server.

FPGA vi i am trying to compile is the Sine Generator.vi which was there in examples under FPGA Fundamanetals->Analysis and Controls.

Hi Hariharan,

 

To answer this question I would need a little more idea on what is there in your FPGA VI. do you see this behavior with other FPGA VIs too or this particular one?

I am attaching the block diagram of the fpga vi. It is a sine generator example which was in the labview examples folder.

I am seeign this behaviour only when i compile this fpga vi. I have compiled other fpga vi's without any problem.

Hi Hariharan,

 

At first glance, your FPGA VI seems to be fine. The only things that look like they might cause the compile server to hang might be the fact that the 4 sine waves are being generated simultaneously. However, that is not a strong enough reason. Was your VI developed or compiled in a previous version of LabVIEW FPGA or NI-RIO?

I found the VI under the folder LabVIEW 8.5->examples->compactRIO->FPGA Fundamentals->Analysis and Control folder.

I assumed it is for the version i have since i have not developed it. I just used the VI and it did not show any errors excpet for the compilation required error.

And when i tried to compile it  is giving this error.

Hi Hariharan,

 

I have followed your instructions to set up the same situation but have been unable to reproduce your situation--I shall try again. Please confirm that you have made no changes in the original sine wave generator example.
