Anyone have the 2012 setup util for RIO Eval Kit? Also, question on simulating FPGA

Awesome, I only had to do step 1 and reboot, and then I was able to enter the IP address of the RIO, and the RIO shows up. Hopefully I can update the software now. Thanks.

When I change the FPGA vi to run on the development computer, it breaks the RT vi, which gives an error message "The FPGA VI Execution mode, Execute on the Development Computer, is not supported on Real-Time targets." Does this mean I just can't simulate using the evaluation board?

You can still simulate the FPGA by just running your FPGA VI, but if you want to simulate the host-target communication, then you can only do that from Windows. Fortunately, all you have to do is change your RT VI by right-clicking on the lower left-hand corner of the window, and select "My Computer". This will let you simulate your "RT" code on Windows (timing is in no way accurate when simulating RT VIs on Windows).

One more thing, if the power is unplugged would I have to configure it all over again?

Do you mean if you unplug the power to the board while your project is running? There will be a notification in LabVIEW that the target has been disconnected, but it shouldn't affect the configurations you made in LabVIEW regarding which target you want the code to run on. Please clarify the question if this isn't what part of the process you were asking about.
