Re: Simplest way to communicate Arduino to cRIO?
Fej,

There are several ways I can think of to communicate between an Arduino and the cRIO. None of which are probably as easy as you would like.

1) RS-232 - Although you may need a level shifter on the signal lines
2) Ethernet (as mentioned earlier)
3) I2C - Note that the cRIO limits the message length to 7 bytes, so you would need to split up your communication into two transactions. The cRIO must also be the Master.
