The LabvVIEW installation disks that come with the competition kit will already know how to build a FRC-cRIO project. So instead of saying "New Vi" you will say "New FRC cRIO project"
That project will build and deploy to the robot and work just like the "Default programs" of past years.
This base project can then be modified to your hearts content to build custom robot capabilities. There is also a large set of "custom" vi's created to support typical FRC components. The best thing is that you can drill down into these and see how they were built, and learn LabVIEW skills the same we learn most programming.
Note: the cRIO will probably be loaded with this program out of the box, so once wired up it should run without any software changes (just like past years)
Go to this forum to ask question of the teams currently beta testing the new hardware/software.

There is not much there yet because people aren't asking questions (like yours).
