Does anyone know how to access the PSoC from a LabView application ?
The are several blocks to set and read data and the other functions but no block to initialize communication or open the card for access. Using the other VI’s alone give a device not connected error.
Also if anyone knows about the possibility of getting the labview souce files for the driver station application. They would be helpful in figuring out how to communicate with the card.
Thanks for any input.

The start communication VI is what is needed to “open” the connection to the board. Make sure the LED on the I/O tab is lit… it indicates that the board is communicating with the driver station and I/O data is being sent to the robot. Also, if you are using the enhanced API, then you need to select the enhanced API on the driver station I/O tab in the configuration dialog.
To clarify, most teams will want the robot code to interface with the cypress board via the DS. That was, I believe, what Joe was describing. Is that what you are doing, or are you wanting to communicate to it from a PC or dashboard? If so, you want different code.

I can comunicate with it thruogh the driver station but wanted to learn how to access it straight from a labview app like you can with the sensor DAQ. It looks like many of the blocks are provided I just don’t know how to start the communication. Maybe as a VISA USB device ? If anyone has any example that would be great.
Thanks

Has anyone figured this out yet? We are also looking at how to get it working.
What is the use case? Please describe in detail.
