When the VI runs, the graph indicator displays data that represents the distances to objects in range
of the sensor. Also, the
Object Detected
indicator is TRUE when the sensor detects an object in
range.
2.
Notice that LabVIEW displays the project and target in which the VI exists at the bottom-left corner
of the front panel and block diagram windows. This text indicates the application instance in which
the VI exists.
3.
Close the front panel of the VI. The block diagram closes automatically.
4.
In the
Project Explorer
window, double-click the
Starter Kit 2.0 Roaming.vi
.
5.
Select
Window»Show Block Diagram
to display the block diagram of the VI, as shown in Figure 8.
Figure 8. Block Diagram of the Starter Kit Roaming 2.0 VI
This VI shows a more complex Starter Kit application. The Timed Loop controls the code that
acquires obstacle data from the distance sensor, calculates the heading to which the vehicle drives,
and applies the correct velocity to the drive motors.
6.
Close the Starter Kit 2.0 Roaming VI and return to the project.
Configuring Target Properties
Use the
Properties
dialog box to configure the project settings of the Single-Board RIO target from the
Project Explorer
window. You can configure general, VI Server, access, debugging, and miscellaneous
target settings, depending on the target you are configuring.
Right-click the
Starter Kit 2.0 sbRIO
target in the
Project Explorer
window and select
Properties
from the shortcut menu to open the target
Properties
dialog box and select an item from the
Category
list to display the configuration options. Select
Project»Save Project
from the
Project Explorer
window
to save the project and settings you selected for the target in the target
Properties
dialog box.
You must deploy the target before the settings take effect. Deploying a target refers to applying settings
defined in the project to a target.
Note
Deploying a target overwrites the current target settings with the latest settings specified
in the target
Properties
dialog box.
