VeriStand FPGA Interface Tools - Project Templace Error

[Tetro]

Hi,

I need to create a custom FPGA personality to be run on VeriStand using LabVIEW FPGA.

I installed the NI VeriStand FPGA Interface Tools on my PC using the release on this page: https://forums.ni.com/t5/NI-Labs-Toolkits/NI-VeriStand-FPGA-Based-I-O-Interface-Tools/ta-p/3493285

I've used this tool with success in the past, but it was 2 or 3 years ago. Since then, I've upgraded my LabVIEW and VeriStand versions to 2023 Q3.

When using the LabVIEW Create Project wizard, I'm able to locate "NI VeriStand FPGA Project" without issue. However, when I select it and click "Finish" to launch it, the context Help Menu pops up and that's it, the project never gets created.

Has anyone encountered this issue? Any pointers as to what may be the issue?

I think most people use VeriStand FPGA Addon custom device nowadays. Have you considered that?

Getting Started With NI FPGA Devices in NI VeriStand

We have some code that's written using the "old" interface tool, and we simply needed to modify it slightly. That's the reason we wanted to go with it.

However, it seems NI really is moving in the direction of the FPGA Addon, so I think it just makes sense to move our code to that newer framework.

Thanks.
