does new version of labview and labview fpga support the data transfering from host to fpga module

[david2k]

I use labview 8.0 and labview fpga module 8.0. I just want to transfer data from the host to fpag module. when I create a DMA FIFO in the fpga and use the "FIFO Read" function. right click and chose the name of DMA FIFO created, it turns to be "FIFO Write". can someone tell me why? do I need  new version of labview and labview fpga  to transfer data  from host to fpga module?  Or is there something I just neglect?

Hello,

If you want to transfer data from the host to the FPGA you need to create a FIFO with the type set to ‘Host to Target – DMA’. When you then use it in the FPGA VI the only selection you can do is to read it. When you set the type to ‘Target to Host- DMA’ you can only write to it.

You need to update the RIO driver.
