show remaining memory in cRIO?

[PTLanza]

I am using the compact RIO with RT 8.2 software.  I am filling up an array when I am taking data as binary numbers from the FPGA FIFO.  Is there a way to get LabView to show me how much memory is available before I start taking the data so I know how much I can take without causing the it to crash.  Thanks.

Check out Programmatically Tracking Memory in LabVIEW Real-Time, specifically rtgetmemorysummary.vi for 8.0 and later. That should give you the memory utilization you want.
