Porting from sbRIO 9626 to 9627

[ryan32]

I'm apart of a school project and was tasked with porting our LabView code originally for an sbRIO 9626 to an sbRIO 9627 and getting the board programmed.  I am new to LabView and FPGA programming in general so I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction as to what steps I should take since I'm assuming references in the code will need to be changed before it can be uploaded to the new board.

Hi Ryan,

We have a guide for Moving Examples To a Different FPGA Target that should be exactly what you're looking for.

As for specifics, these two sbRIOs have two different FPGAs, so the NI sbRIO 9626 Bit File will not work for the NI sbRIO 9627. You'll need to create a new project for the new sbRIO and recompile the code to the new FPGA.

You'll need to look at the code for references to Input & Output on the sbRIO, and make sure they correlate to the I/O on the 9627.

Anyway, follow along with the link I mentioned, and let me know if you have any specific questions.

Thanks!
