Can't succeed to create a program with both myRIO and Kinesis

[Lypsiie]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to create a program that controls a camera and a thorlab motor (KDC101) simultaneously. The deal is that my motor is connected to the DAC myRIO, and the software "Kinesis", made to control the KDC101 is here to change the distance that the motor

does at every new iteration.

The problem is the following : when I test my program with only myRIO (that sends triggers to cameras, motors etc.), it works. When I test my program with only Kinesis (moving the motor), it works. But when I try to make them both co-exist, I have an error.

The error depends on how I try to open the file. If I open it as a myRIO project, then the Kinesis part is bugging. If I open it as a Kinesis project, then the myRIO part is bugging.

I tried everything, but nothing seems to work. By the way, all of my Kinesis DLL are in the exact same folder as my project.

Can y'all help me ?

The Kinesis part only works on your Windows computer.

The myRIO part only works on your myRIO target.

You need to run both parts in parallel on their designated target and implement communication between them!
