NI-CAN API example

[Deeyu]

Is a example codes LabWindow/CVI anywhere for NI-CAN?

Hi Deeyu,

Yes, there are several NI-CAN examples that can be found by using the Example Finder in LabWindows/CVI.  From the main splash screen, click Find Examples, then do a search for CAN.

These can also be found by going to C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\CVI\Samples\nican

You need to make sure that you have both LabWindows/CVI and the NI-CAN driver installed for these to show up.  When installing the NI-CAN driver, make sure you select the option for LabWindows/ CVI support and examples.

Hi，Austin

I didn't find nican folder in this samples folder:

~\National Instruments\CVI\Samples\

And I didn't see CAN in NI Example Finder, (see picture)

Is there something wrong? 

Thanks.

Yundong,

Do you have the NI-CAN driver installed?  If I'm not mistaken, these should show up in the noted folder locations.

Also make sure that you have the LabWindows options selected in the install that I mentioned above.
