Re: where did the behind-the-scenes code go?
LabVIEW supports many types of platforms.
It is necessary to compile your VI code for each platform, and it is often useful to swap out vi.lib subVIs that are written differently, perhaps taking advantage of OS or architectural specializations. Other languages do this too. C runtime libraries are standardized at their interface, but pre-built for platform details.
In this case, since the Wintel platform doesn't have an FPGA and can't really be the robot, we used it as a simulate-flag. If the code is PC, it links to the simulator.
