Re: LabVIEW with NXT sensors

I'm afraid I'm not going to be of much help. It sounds like you have VIs from the mfg of the sensor that work, and that means you can write LV code that makes your NXT respond to the sensor input.

To dig deeper, into the actual protocol for talking with the sensor is something that the toolkit does support, and you may be able to find the protocol details on the HiTechnic website or on a similar advanced LEGO site -- NXTasy.org and thenxtstep.com are good sites to scour for that sort of thing. That would also be a better place to ask advanced questions about the NXT.

On the otherhand, the author of the VIs was not NI, and they chose to lock the diagrams, likely for support reasons.
