I am using a cRIO and need to get data from 2 different modules. One is a 9870 serial module and one is a 9201 analog input module. I have the FPGA VIs and the data acquisition VIs working for each independently, but I need to get both sets of Data at the same time. Because I cannot run 2 FPGAs at the same time, I have been trying to combine them into one FPGA and one VI to acquire the data with no success.
If there is anyone who can help me out here I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi Sergey,
One of the neat features of FPGA programming is true parallel code execution. You should be able to copy one block diagram into the other VI, keeping them totally separate (no shared loops) and as long as they are not accessing the same resouces (FIFOs, Memory, etc) they should be able to run simultaneously. It sounds like you may have tried something like this. What's been going wrong with your attempts?
