R Series Intelligent DAQ User Manual
Note
If you use the R Series device without the FPGA Module, you can use the RIO
Device Setup utility, available by selecting
Start»All Programs»National Instruments»
NI-RIO»RIO Device Setup
to download precomplied FPGA VIs to the flash memory of
the R Series device. This utility installs with NI-RIO. You also can use the utility to
configure the analog input mode, to synchronize the clock on the R Series device to the
PXI clock (for NI PXI-78
xx
R only), and to configure when the VI loads from flash
memory. For more information about using the RIO Device Setup utility, refer to the
RIO Device Setup Help

LabVIEW Real-Time Module
The LabVIEW Real-Time Module extends the LabVIEW development
environment to deliver deterministic, real-time performance.
You can write host VIs that run in Windows or on RT targets to
communicate with FPGA VIs that run on the NI 78
xx
R. You can develop
real-time VIs with LabVIEW and the LabVIEW Real-Time Module, and
then download the VIs to run on a hardware target with a real-time
operating system. The LabVIEW Real-Time Module allows you to use the
NI 78
xx
R in RT Series PXI systems being controlled in real time by a VI.
The NI 781
x
R is designed as a single-point DIO complement to the
LabVIEW Real-Time Module. The NI 783
x
R/784
x
R/785
x
R is designed as
a single-point AI, AO, and DIO complement to the LabVIEW Real-Time
Module. Refer to the
LabVIEW Help

Real-Time Module.
