Re: How to get NI LabVIEW
The free download is for LabVIEW 2011 which is the version that you will be using in FRC 2012 and would be a good start to work through many of the helpful tutorials.

But the WPI libraries and the cRIO image that we have is only compatible with LabVIEW 8.6. Beside the beta test teams, we will not get the FRC support files for LabVIEW 2011 until the 2012 kickoff.

So if you wish to try programming your robot, your best bet is to find your LabVIEW 8.6 DVD from last year or find a nearby team and barrow theirs. The LabVIEW licensee can be found in the documentation online at FIRST. All teams used the same licensee.
