Hi Daindim,

I have the same problem with the German version of LabView 8.2. I can't see the VI in my NXT terminal. Is there a nother solution then install an old version?

Regards,

Bruno



Hi Brumma,

If you have a non localized version of LV - means an english one - it should work.

Regards,

Daindim

Ok - I did find the patch on the VI site - should have searched a bit longer !

Problem solved, the example code runs nicely.

Thanks to all VI developers who have made this possible.

Sorry hher,

for the life of me I cannot remember the exact link. I have the patch down loaded on disk and the file contains a html readme: Here is

the extract describing its installation

 

Windows

Complete the following steps to install the LabVIEW Toolkit for LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT 1.0.1 Patch for Windows.

  1. Download the LabVIEW Toolkit for LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT 1.0.1 Patch from ni.com/academic/mindstorms.
  2. Unzip the nxttoolkit101patch.zip file and open the directory that corresponds to the LabVIEW version installed on the computer.
  3. Copy the vi.lib directory you downloaded and paste this directory into the labview directory.
  4. In the copy warning dialog box, select Yes to All.

 

Try searching for this zip file? I must say I could not locate it tonight either on the ni site.
