Repertory Firmware not found

Hi,

I've just installed LIFA with ViPM and there are no repertory Firmware in <LabVIEW>\vi.lib\LabVIEW Interface for Arduino\

Where can I find it, please ?

Regards,

Pierre

I assume when you say repertory Firmware you mean LIFA Firmware.  Others have reported this problem and Sammy_K has provided a solution.  What you need to do is:

Look for the discussion topic "Where is LIFA Base Pde for Labview 2012"

Open this discussion toic and scroll down to Sammy_K message, the last message.

Download the Zip file, LIFA_Base_2012_Build_79.zip

Unzipping this file produces  the LIFA_Base_2.1.1.69  > LiFA_Base folder

The LIFA_Base folder contains the LIFA firmware

I don't know what "repertory" means but I think this thread will help you.

I'm in the same boat; the Firmware folder doesn't exist within <LabVIEW>\vi.lib\LabVIEW Interface for Arduino\.

Running LV 2011 on my end.

I'm going to keep searching online and in other folders on my machine.

Support: would the locatio of the IDE changed with a new rev of the library?

The code on this site does a pretty good job giving output both in g's and angle of rotation about the three axis of rotation.

Converting the Arduino code to LabView should be trivial if you're familiar with the more Arduino 'language'.

Cheers,

Look fot the last message in the "Where is LIFA base pde for Labview" discussion topic.  Sammy_K attached the firmware to this message.  It is labelled LIFA_BASE_2012_Build_79,zip.

The package in VIPM should be updated to include the firmware now.

At 1320 PST, I downloaded the current LIFA package with the VI Package Manager. The firmware still show's as Arduino v2.2.0.78 so we must be patient a little longer.
