- Follow Setting Up EtherCAT on NI Programmable Controllers guide to configure the LabVIEW project.
- To access FPGA LED you need to add FPGA target under EtherCAT chassis.
3. To transfer data between FPGA(9144/9144) and HOST/RT you can only use
User Defined Variables by right click on Device then
New 4. Create a Boolean Shared Variable
5. Create a logic when you want your FPGA LED to be turned on and assign it to a variable you've created on the FPGA target.
6. Compile the bitfile and download the FPGA vi to the EtherCAT chassis.
7. Create an .vi on the host/RT side in which you will read the value of user shared variable
