Help with Gyro

Hello, we are using the ADXRS453Z along with the roboRIO and the numbers (angle) we are getting back is just continuously increasing (into the negatives), we are using the new roboRio Labview example, and was wondering if anyone can help with making the gyro read the angle properly. That is, instead of reading and adding what seems to be the gyro rate, to read just what the gyro's real angle is.

Also, we are very sure that we wired it correctly, because we did it according to the picture in the lab view example.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
