Good afternoon, I am performing a measurement of a small 12v solar plate, I am using the cRIO 9066, with the module NI 9238. With that, I want to acquire every 5 minutes and save this data in excel, I managed to do this in VI loose, but when I put the VI inside CompactRIO it doesn't allow compiling, how can I collect this FPGA data and play in excel?

Hi Augusto,
you can save the data in a simple CSV (aka text) file inside the cRIO.
Or you can transfer the data to your PC host using any kind of network communication - as explained in the example VIs and projects for cRIO…

hi, thanks for the reply, my excel is already as CSV, in figure 1, is the VI that is connected in compactRIO, as you can see does not contain the file "Write To Spreadsheet File.vi", already in the second image is the VI that is in My Computer , the file is found.

Hi Augusto,
I guess you have taken the tutorials for programming cRIO and for FPGA - did you?
The FPGA is fast, but limited in its abilities. It certainly cannot access any harddrive!
But all those data transfers/exchanges are explained in the example VIs and projects coming with the RT/FPGA module installation…

No, i didn't. Would you have links available for tutorials? and for the examples?
