LabVIEW 2012 and LegoNXT

[NapDynamite]

Hi,

Will my EV3 Lego mindstorm brick work with LabVIEW 2012 and LabVIEW Lego MindstormNXT 2012? Because when I'm installing LabVIEW module for Lego 2012, it'sprompting me to install LV2012 SP1. I already have LV2012 but NOT SP1. 

Regards.

If you did a normal install of LabVIEW, it should have installed LabVIEW Update.  LabVIEW Update, in turn (when it runs), should find that there is an SP1 (or more) update for your existing software, and offer to download and install it for you.  Do you see LabVIEW Update running in the background?  If not, you should be able to find it in Programs/NI/LabVIEW Update Service.

The system in my lab has no SP1, probably the guy over here never bothered to install that update. Now when I checked those updates to install SP1, the update service is locked for this patch and is asking for renewal of subscription.

My boss, who is not very cognizant of software stuff, is now asking me to use the EV3 software which comes along with LEGO pack becuase he's not ready to spend much to renew.
And my dream of teaching LabVIEW to school kids is now in vain.


Regards.

In vain?

A bit dramatic isn't it?

One license is $99.

Site license is $570.
