8145 LED Labwindows

[Tanner]

I would like to control the USER2 and USER3 LEDs on the 8145RT from LabWindows.  I need to know what register to write to and the format of the register.

Hi Tanner,
I have brought up the issue to National Instruments' R&D department. 
I will post another reply as soon as I will have an update on this issue.

Hi Tanner,

There is a way to do this is LabVIEW Real-Time, but there isn't a function in CVI to do this.  

On the other hand, you can call the libraries that LabVIEW uses and use C functions to set the LED values. (This requires you to have LabVIEW.  Please let us know if you don't have LabVIEW)

The 2 libraries that the LabVIEW vi calls are:

• Function Name: LedOutput
• Function Prototype: int32_t LedOutput(int32_t led, int32_t value);
• Location:  C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.6\Targets\NI\RT\vi.lib\ni_emb.dll 

• Function Name: LedInput
• Function Prototype: int32_t LedInput(int32_t led);
• Location: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.6\Targets\NI\RT\vi.lib\ni_emb.dll

That'll work just fine.  Thanks for the quick answer.
