Problems programing NXT using Labview

Hello I'm starting a robotics team where I work, high school so I hope my question isn't to rudimentary for this forum. I built the basic tetrix base but can't get the programming started. The robot essentially runs  off of a lego mindstorms NXT module. When I try to test the sensors, or motors, nothing works, I can't even tell if they are showing up or not. I see them but can't tell if they're active. When I try to use the the schematic editor to test everything nothing seems to work. I can change the parameters, eg. motor direction, but it doesn't seem to affect the sensors, or motors plugged into the NXT. When I wave my hand in front of the ultrasonic sensor nothing changes, when I push the plunger on the touch sensor the values on the schematic editor don't change. I don't know if this has anything to do with it but I keep changing batteries but the battery indicator keeps showing the same level of power, almost dead.

If you post this in the Lego Mindstorms board you may get a faster reply. http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-for-LEGO-MINDSTORMS-and/bd-p/460

This article is intended to control the direction and speed of a Lego NXT robot using the directional buttons on the computer keyboard, strategic control distance limited by the scope of the Bluetooth transmitter installed.

This article is intended to record the activity of the buttons on the NXT Intelligent Brick MindStorm, while pressing a particular button will produce a musical tone while a LED lights in the program.
