I'd like to create an indicator that shows when the bitfile download is
complete and/ or when the FPGA is running. I didn't see an method or
propertythat could be used to indicate when the bitfile download is completed.
Is there recommended approach to indicate that the fpga has been programmed?

Chuck

Hey Chuck,
Yes, there is a very simple way of telling when the bitfile has been downloaded. The "Open FPGA VI Reference" function blocks until the FPGA bitfile has been downloaded. Essentially this means that when execution leaves the "Open FPGA VI Reference", the bitfile has been downloaded. If you checked the "Run FPGA VI" configuration option in the "Open FPGA VI Reference", then the FPGA will be running when execution leaves the open reference.
If this didn't answer your question, let me know.
