After I had finish to install the software for the NI-CAN board, I just can't find the FP file to use on my cvi project. Is there some step that I am missing?
 
Please,let me know.

Hey MannyR! If you installed NI-CAN drivers, you should be able to find C examples in LabWindows example finder.

Hi MannyR,Can you make sure that the 'CVI Support' feature of the NI-CAN installer was turned on? What version of CVI are you using? See KnowledgeBase article # 2V27R4HR (<a href="http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/E01EF8B67CB49A4C86256CDE0051DF66" target="_blank"> What is the Latest Version of NI-CAN That Supports My Version of LabVIEW or LabWindows/CVI?</a>) for NI-CAN/CVI compatibility. When you have CVI open, is the NI-CAN entry in the libraries menue solid or grayed out?Further more, NI-CAN can support only one version of CVI at a time. Typically that is the latest version found, unless you have already NI-CAN support for an older version of CVI installed. (also see this issue with the NI-845x software: <a href="http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=180&amp;message.id=36256#M36256" target="_blank"> USB-8451 No longer works with CVI 8.5.1</a>). -B2k<a href="../view_profile?user.id=111300" target="top" class="auth_text" style="font-weight: bold;"> </a>

Hello Biker2000,
I am using CVI 8.0, and yes, on Libraries-&gt;NI-CAN it is shown as solid, I have access to the FP functions, but I still want to have access to the FP file in order to create a wrapper class for C#.&nbsp; I need to translate this CVI application to a managed environment with the use of .NET 2005.&nbsp;
Thanks by your comments.
MannyR.

Hello MannyR,NI-CAN does not have an .fp file but uses an .lfp file instead (just like NI-DAQmx). The .lfp files were introduced for LabWindows/CVI 7.0 and newer.However, try the attached file. It should work unless it collides with the already installed .lfp file.-B2k
