I am a quiet extensive labview user (I have been using it since 8 years now) but outside that, I have not a clear idea of informatics and computer architecture, sorry!


You don't know how to Google?

You certainly can't modify a dll - especially not a Windows component.

From ti, you should get a list of the functions in the hid.dll that need to be called. With the function list, there will be a list of parameters. The parameters will require a specific set of values.

This task really requires some basic understanding of what a dll is, how it's called, how you get values back from one, etc.

I wrote to TI and I asked a list of the functions to call in the HID.dll library and the parameters to set in order to control the board. I am trying now to get information about the dll libraries...

Well, TI does not provide information on how to interact with HID.dll library, and just recommend to use their own software to control the board, and that's all. I figure out this is a difficult task which maybe does not worth to investi time anymore. LabView is maybe not the correct tool to control this device. I have to spend one week or more struggling with that to get something....
