Steven,
I have done the following exercises and hope the results steer us in a proper direction.
Then I shifted focus to the examples from the Example finder. I used the Digital port input and output for R series project.
To Further troubleshoot our problems, I then copied the same VI for the 7833R, recompiled it,created additional references for the second card etc and ran it. The result is attached. This is the first time I am using the 7831&7833R's together, usually they are both the same (either both 7831's or 7833's)

Ashm01,
Thanks for checking the drivers and the example program. I too was able to get a stable 5% with a 7831R. Would it be possible for you to post your code you used with the 7831R and 7833R so I can run the same code. Thanks.
Regards,
Steve

Hello,
Do you know where I could get some labview code that can log the CPU usage?
Thanks Duane

Hi,
I found the RT Simple CPU Usage.vi but when I tried to run it with Labview 7.1 it could not find "ni_emb.dll". Do you know where I could get this dll?
Thanks Duane

Hi Duane,
The RT Simple Usage.vi should be used for Real Time targets. The ni_emb.dll should be located at the following spot: if you have installed RT
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.1\vi.lib\addons\rt\ETS.
I have attached the library file that contains all the RT Simple Usage VIs. Have you installed RT with your version of LabVIEW 7.1?

First of all, let me thank all the people who have tried to help.
Sorry for the LONG absense... Anyway, I have some good news and something unexpected.
Finally after getting sufficient time to try the upgrade procedure again. I came across the following:
Now the problem:
I used the Number to Boolean array function at numerous places. what I have noticed is it is slowing the code down to unacceptable levels. This did not hamper much in the previous version. Is there anything different in this version? FYI.. I am trying to convert U8 to a boolean array from my FPGA cards to an array of LED indicators.
Appreciate your assistance.

Hi ashmo1,
Good to hear from you again and that your previous FPGA program seems to be running well. There shouldn't be anything different with the Number to Boolean Array. Are you implementing the function on your FPGA or on your RT target? How are you determining the execution time of the function? How much slower is your program running?
Please let me know the answers to the above questions and I'll be happy to assist you furter. Take care until then.
Regards,

Hi Steven,
The setup has changed a bit now, previously I had two PXI RIO boards. Now, just 1 7831R coupled with 2 cRIO 9151 chassis with 8 cRIO modules.
I will try to benchmark the execution time today. I was comparing it to the display update from the RT to the host. After disabling (one by one) all the loops in the RT system, I could pin point to the loop where I converted the values from the FGV's U8 to Boolean array.
I have a few queries regarding labview 8:
