myRIO scan mode?

Simple question about myRIO: Does it operate in Scan Mode? And how to do it?

Thanks a lot James.

I couldn't find anything about myRIO though.

The target when added to a project doesn't give the option to choose between FPGA/Scan mode. It goes directly like this:

Oops, misread the title. You can use the MyRIO without customizing the FPGA, but it's not "scan mode", but more similar to DAQmx. This article should help:

James is correct, and if you look into the express VIs and default FPGA personality you will see that it is just using an FPGA read/write node to get the current value of each input.  While it shares the same basic functionality, this means that you will not be able to have a hybrid mode of sorts where you have your own FPGA application and use these express VIs without a lot of drawbacks.
