CompactRIO LED not working

I cannot get the User LED on the CompactRIO to work. Tried numerous things, but to no avail.
 
Even writing a loop to simply turn it ON does not work.
 
help!

Hi,

Are you trying to access the User LED from an FPGA or an RT VI? If you are writing code to access the LED from an FPGA VI, this dicussion explains why this is not working for you:

For accessing the User LED from an RT VI, you need to use the following VI that is located in one of the RT palettes:

If you are already using that VI and things still don't work, please post your VI on this thread so we can take a look at it and try it on one of our controllers.

Hope this helps.
