USB on myRIO FPGA

[studentonproject]

I would like to access the files from the USB plugged on the myRIO USB port through the FPGA but it is not included in the personalities. How can I do this? Thank you.

Also, why are there no blocks relating to sound processing (.wav) when working with the FPGA target VI?

Hi studentonproject,

The USB port is actually accessed through the real-time system. The user guide has a diagram on page 3:

As for interfacing with a flash drive, our myRIO Project Essentials Guide covers using USB flash drives:

This includes a link to example VIs that will help you get started.

Cheers,

Thanks for your reply!

Is there a way to send data from the real-time system to the FPGA?

Hi studentonproject,

Take a look at this Tutorial. It gives an introduction on how to create an application that communicates between the FPGA and real-time system:
