myrio basic examples

[HBNI]

I am not sure what menu you are displaying.  I looked under the tools menu of labview.  I opened the measurement & explorer automation and saw only 2 related items. NI vison runtime 2013 and Image processingh and machine vision.

Hey HBNI,

MAX (Measurement and Automation Explorer) is a stand alone application that is included with LabVIEW.  You can launch MAX from the Windows Start Menu (Start>>All Programs>>National Instruments>>MAX).

Once oyu have MAX open look at the left side of the screen and expand Remote Devices.  You should see your myRIO listed and then you should be able to follow the instructions from the previous posts.

Let us know if that works for you or if you have more questions.

That screen capture is from Measurement & Automation Explorer.  Expand the "Remote Systems" tab, then expand the menu for your myRIO target.  Under that you will see "Software", which displays the software you have installed to your myRIO.  The software tab under "My System" shows the software you have installed on your host PC. You may need to install additional software on your myRIO.  This is also described in the KnowledgeBase article linked in that post (Steps 1-3).

It looks like the link to the tutorial Sam provided is broken, so here's that one again:

Hope that helps!

Please ignore my previous message on locating software on Devices and systems.  I found it under Remote systems-software.  I am downloading additional software now.
