How to use RFID RC522 for arduino in Labview?

[brunosouza]

Hello everyone!

I need to read a couple of RFID tags and then perform actions with a robotic arm.

How can use the library MFRC522.h into the Labview? 

May I add the C++ code into the LIFA_Base?

Will I need to create a new vi?

Thanks.

Hello, I have the same problem. I am searching for some example of LabView interface of Arduino UNO with RFID-RC522.

Could somebody more experienced help? 🙂

You can use existing Arduino libraries with LINX (which replaced LIFA several years ago) using a LINX Custom Command.  If you have issues implementing this, you should post on the LINX forums.

Thank You Nathan_B for an advice. With LINX I finally managed to deal with RFID reader.

Hello Jakubbe I'm kind of stucked in the same problem I want to interface my labviw with MFRC522 can you help to find out ho you did it ?

Hi Anouar47,

as Nathan_B adviced the easiest way is to use a LINX and Custom Command. This way let You to use existing libraries for RC522 to read mifare card and pass data to LV. 

Here is the best tutorial according to the topic which I found: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGTbRQR-x_4 Based on another sensor, but the idea is the same. 

If You still will be stucked in this place let me know 🙂

Regards.

Hello jakubbe. Would you please share the custom Arduino file that you used.
