Auxiliary Lighting W/ Encoders

[The_Waffleing]

So one of the members of my team is currently working on the auxiliary board for our robot and he was talking to me about how he was going to have to use encoders for the LED indicators beings that their are so many LEDs that are being used on the board right now. The board that we are using is the Launchpad MSP430F5529 that came in the K.o.P last year and I know that that can be coded with Arduino (at least from what I remember last). My question to the community of Chief Delphi is if there is no way of programming the encoders via Labview, how would one go about bridging the connection between the code on the LaunchPad and the Labview project? Is there actually a way to program said encoders in Labview that I'm not aware of? Any input is much appreciated!
