Go to the VEX website
http://www.vexrobotics.com
Type "accelerometer" into the yellow search box and press ENTER
Click on the link that says "VEX Analog Accelerometer Sensor"
Scroll down to the link that says "documentation" and click on that.
The very first paragraph on that page says:
The VEX Analog Accelerometer V1.0 [1] is a three-axis accelerometer that outputs an analog voltage in the range of 0V - 5V for each of three orthogonal axis (X, Y, and Z). This accelerometer is based on the LIS344ALH[2] sensor from STMicroelectronics [3].
So, try connecting the accelerometer to an analog input. LabVIEW supports analog inputs.
Just curious: what do you intend to use that accelerometer for?
