Hi,
I have a programme which runs on the RT engine and calls up an FPGA reference, samples data from this and then carries out some calculations on it. I'm currently trying to modify this to add more functionality, but have hit a problem. The picture attached is the original programme which works fine, but when I add another "Open FPGA VI reference" above the one shown, which is targeted to the same PXI 7833R card, but calls a different VI, it causes the original code to stop running properly. I haven't been able to track down the root of the problem, but it appears to be affecting the sampling of data in the original programme. I'm thinking it is something to do with timing as I haven't changed a single part of the programme except adding this extra FPGA reference, so all I think it could be affecting is the speed the programme runs at.
Does anyone know of any problems associated with opening two FPGA references at once?
Just in case you need to know, I'm running Labview 7.1, with a PXI 1042 chassis, PXI 8186 controller, PXI 7833R FPGA card and PXI 8461 CAN card.
Thanks,
Nick
