How to generate the files .fpgaconfig?

[kanemo]

In a file (.vi) with FPGA items, I press 'run' and I do according to the hints, a file with extension 'lvbits' is generated. However, I don't know how to generate the file with extension 'fpgaconfig'. It is appreciated if someone can tell me. Thanks!

Hi kanemo,

However, I don't know how to generate the file with extension 'fpgaconfig'.

What do you need such a file for?

I use LabVIEW-FPGA for several years and never needed any "fpgaconfig" file…

You can see this web page and what I am going to do is similar with him. And you will notice there are files with extension 'lvbits' and 'fpgaconfig'.

Hi kanemo,

so you are using VeriStand?

[kanemo]

Yes. So you mean that these files come from Veristand but not labview? But I do get the file with extension 'lvbits' after I run the .vi file and compile it .

I guess so. As said before: I never needed/saw any "fpgaconfig" files in LabVIEW…

But I do get the file with extension 'lvbits' after I run the .vi file and compile it . 

Yes, that's what LabVIEW does: create a lvbits file for the FPGA…

Maybe you should ask in a VeriStand forum?

OK, I got it and thank you so much！
