Can compact fieldpoint work together with regular fieldpoint?

Hi,

I'm using regular FieldPoint modules with Labview 8.5 right now. I want to add new modules, can I choose compact FieldPoint moudles?

 

Thanks!

You'll have to get a new backplane and a new controller or network module.  Compact Fieldpoint modules aren't physically compatible with the regular field point modules.  So the new devices will show up as a new target in MAX.  Beyond that, LabVIEW will be able to work with both just have in any application that would have multiple targets.
