[FTC]: Reading the 12V Battery voltage in LabVIEW

Phil:

Can you turn this VI into a NXT-G block for those that are programming in that language.

Thanks,

Oh Boy.... now you're really challenging me. I've never done a NXT-G block before (certainly not one that accesses the ports directly). Is it possible to look inside the existing FTC ones to see how they work?

Actually it might be easier than you think. Having never done LabView, I don't know what it takes, but NI was nice enough to give us manuals with the FTC install of their software. Look in their subfolder trees under the Manuals folder. There should be a PDF file called "NXT_Creating_MINDSTORMS_Blocks". It looks like it walks your through the entire process.

Thanks,
