Trouble myRIO Personalities: Default is the only option

Hello,

 

I'm amused with the possibilities myRIO can provide, but I have a issue that I can't handle myself.

 

I need to acquire an analog signal and plot it, applying the Fast Fourier Transfor (FFT), but when I used the express VI to read this signal, I've got a DBL value, not a dynamic data.

 

I've reading and found that there are two  high-speed analog data access (which could help me delivering dynamic data), however I need to use the myRIO high-throughput personality and it isn't avaible for choose when creating a new FPGA project on labview.

Hey mbriago,

 

I went through the NI-myRIO toolkit help and found out that, in order to use the high-throughput personality, you must install the NI High Throughput Add-on for myRIO.

 

"The High Throughput FPGA Personality VIs appear on the myRIO palette only after you install the NI High Throughput Add-On for myRIO. Visit ni.com/info and enter the Info Code ex6g5a to learn about the High Throughput Add-On for myRIO."

 

Following the instructions described above takes you to this tutorial, teaching you how to use the Add-on and, at the end, links for downloads are provided.

 

Please, try to download, install and use the Add-on as shown on the Tutorial. Let me know if that worked out.

Hi Felipe, 

 

I know this has been a number of months old, but when I visited the tutorial page, there was no link at the end of the page to download the High Throughput add-on.

 

May I know if there is another way to download it? I am currently using LabVIEW 2015. The only option I found on the ni.com search was the 2014 version

 

Best regards,

Victor

Hey Victor, I'm having the exact same issue as you. There doesn't seem to be a single download link available on the internet for 2015

Hi VLg and ClassicalApple.

 

Another way to download the High Throughput add-on for myRIO is using the VI Package Manager. The version available there is 15.0.0.2.

Please, try searching for the add-on and installing it through the Package Manager. I believe it should help. Let me know if that worked out.

Hi Lígia,

 

Thanks for the reply! 

 

Yes, I have checked out VI Package Manager, and that certainly solved the problem on my end. Thank you. 🙂

 

If I would like to upgrade my LabVIEW to newer versions (say 2017), do you know where would I be able to download the add-on? 

 

Best regards,

Victor

Hi Victor.

 

You’re welcome. I’m glad to know it worked out!

 

If you need to use LabVIEW 2017 you can also download the add-on through the Package Manager. It’ll show you what’s the compatible version.
