new to compact RIO

CompactRIOs can work without any FPGA programming (scan mode) but is for slower signals as only goes down to msec timing. FPGA is needed if you want to go faster, or if using certain IO modules which need FPGA coding to access (but there is usually some example code that is a good starting point and often do what you may need with just a few adjustments).
The newer cRIO controllers (904x and 905x series) allow for DAQmx to be used to control the FPGA for you. I have not tried this as I typically need some control algorithm, which I put in the FPGA logic.
