Prgramming Arduino lights in LabView

Technical NI LabVIEW

Hello

I’m working with an Arduino based LED light circuit called (Ethernet Microcontroller, Arduino-Compatible (No PoE) (am-2287)), and I’m trying to integrate it into our LabVIEW code. Does anyone have some advise or a tutorial.

Thanks

What type of communication would you like to use between the microcontroller and your roboRIO, and is there a reason you can’t use the roboRIO to control the lights using code in Periodic Tasks.vi and DIO ports?

We just want to be able to change the colors between red and blue with a button on the joystick or in Labveiw.

Here is what we are doing for this. We are having labview set DIO pins hi or low and we connect those pins to Arduino DIO pins. # of pins you use depends on the number of combinations you want (including off, maybe). Arduino code executes different light code based on status of those pins.
