midi Read Control not seen in LabView 8.2-- speedy-33

[casiopea]

Hi All,
The document LV DSP Module Release and Upgrade Notes on http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/371298c.pdf  says that it is possible to read MIDI files with LV and play them on Speedy 33. After installing 3rd party tools Midi Yoke and Midi OX, it is said that the LV should be able to read MIDI data. Specifically, the following is noted in the doc.
"MIDI Read—Appears as a custom numeric control in a front panel window. This control works with the MIDI-OX software. The MIDI Read control reads MIDI data for any MIDI file the MIDI-OX
software plays. The output of the MIDI Read control is an array of five notes that represent the musical content of a MIDI file that MIDI-OX generates."
I have Labview 8.2, XP as the O/S, and Speedy-33 as my DSP Platform. I have installed everything correctly, everything seems to be working fine, however, this MIDI read control is not seen in the control menu. Why I am not able to see this control, where is it? Could this control be only specific to LabView 8.5 because the above document seems to be referring to LabView 8.5?
Thank you very much for any input!

Either of these were a better place than a new thread.

Since now my smtp server is down, I'll apologize via the forum, if you felt offended by the post of this morning.

Since english isn't my native language my posts sometimes lack the nuances available to me in my native language.

 yes, I have been offended as this is my first time getting a reply like this in NI's forums,  but thank you very much for the apology, not a big deal!
the purpose of this forum, to my understanding, is to exchange experience,  discuss matters, and help each other (to some extent) at our own will.  anyway, thanks again, now I hope we can get some reply/recommendation on this "midi Read Control not seen in LabView 8.2" post..

Hi casiopea,

The document you referenced is for DSP Module 2.5, which is the version compatible with LabVIEW 8.5 as you mentioned.  Since you said that everything seems to be working fine with the DSP Module in LabVIEW 8.2, I assume you've actually installed DSP Module 2.0, the version for LabVIEW 8.2.  Unfortunately, the Release Notes for the 2.0 version don't refer to the MIDI Read Control.
