i need to communicate with the hx711 to plot the load on a graph on the labview using the LIFA tool kit

This question has been asked a number of times and this seems to be the most recent thread on the question, so I'll post this here. I was hunting for a solution to the same problem. The solution in this thread worked great for me.

Hello gintree78, thanks a lot for the link.
I am struggled with the same problem but instead by using LINX I am using LIFA... Did you get it working for LIFA?
10-03-2017 03:36 PM
No, I've only tried this using LINX. Isn't LINX just a newer version of LIFA?

Yes, it is. But if I am not mistaken, there are not compatible... I am thinking that I should modify LIFA_Base script by adding a custom function.
So I will keep going on my searching.
Thanks for your answer.

Hello again,
Finally I "created" a library to be able to add a load cell using HX711. It is based on Nathan_B LIFA Ultrasonic Distance LV9 showed in this post:

And was done under the suggestions of Daikataro. Thanks a lot.
For sure that can be enhanced. So far I am not a professional, but still it is working fine.
Any suggestion, tip or modification would be very welcome. Indeed, I would be very glad if someone with more experience and professionalism have a look and give at least a brief guideline on how could I do it better.

Hi all,
trying to load this, I get missing items. What to do? As I am new to this, a step-by-step answer would be highly appreciated...

Hi,
Remember to add Arduino support to LabView via the VI Package Manager.

It won't work on Arduino Leonardo u.u! Not totally sure why but it performs a time out when performing a VISA reading at some step.
Several Issues, I had to use an alternate version of LIFA_base because the original won't work on Leonardo which I believe is my main issue. In addition, the vi states my pins 0 & 1 are in use or nonexistent, these are used exclusively for communication.
I've tested components using the Arduino IDE and a HX711 Lib and everything works fine.
I will look for a new Arduino UNO since I haven't found a way to make it work on LINX which I believe would be my only solution to make it work on Leonardo.
Any help would be appreciated.

Did you place SCK @ A1 & DT @ A0?
Thank you very much for the help.
