Hi, Thanks for posting this useful information. I got stuck in one step. I am using Uno32 instead of Arduino mega 2560. What should I do after selecting LabVIEWInterfce.h? Do I need to change anything in the code for every different board?

[AllAboutEE]

No, you don't have to change anything. But you can add some code where it says something along the lines of "put your code here" if you want.

hi thanks for the video, i have a problem though, when I click run, the RX led blinks and stays blinking but there is no control of the L led when i click the LED on the front panel, any idea what I could be missing? - I'm using an arduino uno board

[AllAboutEE]

Do you have both the Arduino text editor and LabVIEW opened? Only have LabVIEW opened if that's the case.

hi thanks for your tutorial . i have a question . i try to upload the code to my arduino Bord ( mega 2560 ) but i cant uploded ,i tried on the IDE 1.1 and the IDE 0022 , but i get only a error message that said :

FA_Base.cpp:62: undefined reference to `checkForCommand()'

FA_Base.cpp:42: undefined reference to `syncLV()'

can u Help ?

[AllAboutEE]

Those functions :checkForCommand() and syncLV() are in the LabVIEW file FA_Base.cpp, the error says that your file is calling them but that they don't exist. Did you move the FA_BASE.cpp file to a different place than where it was installed?

Sometimes it happens to me,after I start the VI , I just reset the arduino using the reset button and then it's all right

Hi, here is the solution that worked for me: I've changed Baudrate to 115200 (default). At first I thought I should have used 9600 coz that what was in my Device Menager -> Arduino Uno, but all examples work well for 115200.

[Akshay Wankhede]

Thanks for the help sir. Can you tell me some resources to find some more examples on arduino interface labVIEW specially related to automation and controls?

I have the same problem, and I already made sure it was connected to COM8 and that i have selected uno. (This is all basics to upload a basic program from the arduino IDE).

However, it still doesn't fix the problem.... :( any idea what is happening?

great tutorial



[Vianney0686]

make sure you are selecting the correct port and correct arduino type in the arduino IDE when you upload the LIFA to your board and then close arduino IDE- that's how I fixed my problem

hi great video, i have the same problem as Vianney0686 ! i have checked that the Arduino software is not running and the Rx led blinks, my LED on the board stays ON..with no change in state ? any thoughts

PLEASE HELP, URGENT!

Does this work with UNO? in LabVIEW I get an error with my Init block so it doesn't recognise my UNO thanks
