Hello LabVIEW community, I'm currently working on interfacing an optical flow sensor with LabVIEW through Arduino mega 2560 VISA or LIFA recources librarries availabe within the LabVIEW software package.
I've found a few recources online covering the sensor im working with, which is the ADSN 3080, one source in particulare seems to have managed to obtain images with X/Y displacement in other words direction, along with its magnitude from the sensor and viewed them in LabVIEW, however the block diagram he posted with his document seems to be not complete spically on the intilization side of the code (see the last block diagram in the file link). The second issue, the document is posted in a language which im not sure what is it, however I'm leaning towrad it being Spanish.
if any one can help me, or give me direction to set me in the right path it would be much appricated, i'll leave a link for the said document.

Another note, i think whatever he used on the intilization side of the code must of surely relied on some SPI communication Aspects.
Thank you LabVIEW communitiy,
Abdullah.

Hi Abdullahbz,
Here is an NI Visa that may be helpful to understand NI Visa and Instrument Control in LabVIEW.
