loadcell with fpga

[BurlSwirl]

Hey, I am new to Labview and need to get a reading from a loadcell.  I have the cRIO 9074 and AI C-module 9237.  I have found example .vi's online but they are all for cDAQ.  When using example coding for Analog Inputs within Labview, I only use one of the 4 analog channels it is setup for.  As a result, I keep getting an error saying it timed out.  If anyone knows of an example AI using FPGA or a similar load cell .vi I would greatly appreciate it.  I have checked my hardware connections numerous times and do not believe that is the problem.

Hi,

You should be able to find an FPGA example following

Labview Help>>Find Examples>>Hardware Input and Output>>CompactRIO>>Module Specific>>Analog Input>>(Some 9237 prj ).

Have a good start with your project.

Hello BurlSwirl,

Make sure that you installed the LabVIEW Real-Time Module and NI-RIO driver.  To program the FPGA in FPGA Interface mode (instead of Scan Mode), you will also need to have LabVIEW FPGA Module installed.  Modules require activation, but you can use them in 30-day evaluation mode without activation.

Remember:  NI drivers need to be installed after NI programs, modules, and toolkits.
