Vex ultrasonic

I am trying to get the vex ultrasonic to work with labview for the 2010 FRC system.
I am thinking that I need to send a signal on the output, and then time for a pulse on the input. But I am unable to find out how to do this.
Also I have try the ultrasonic with the WPI that is in labview but was unable to get this to work.

These sensors should work with the ultrasonic API in LabVIEW. I don't have one here to test, but I tried it last year.

Re: Vex ultrasonic

I can never seem to remember where the reference is for "output" and "input", so if it doesn't work, try switching them.
