Creating run fpga button

[roxylat]

hi,

     what is the link between fpga and host programs under one project? If i click run button of the host, should the fpga program run automatically at the same time ? Or should i click the run button of the fpga as well? If i need to click myself, i would like to put the shortcut run button for fpga on the front panel of the host. How can i create that button?

Thank you so much for your time.

With Regards,

The FPGA code will run when you start the host VI, if you program the host
to do so. Create a FPGA reference, and use an FPGA a property node "run" to
start the FPGA code.

hi

 thanks a lot ,

 i know this function but when i use the run fpga i/o node function, there is "wait until done". what is that for? and what i need to connect to "wait until done"?

Thanks a lot.

If "wait until done" is true, the property node won't finish until the FPGA
VI/bitfile is idle. So, if you have an infinit loop on your FPGA, you
probably don't want to set this option. But if you do a short measurement,
you can set it to true, and afterwards read the results.
