Using LABVIEW to control robot?

I’m trying to use LABVIEW to control an OWI-535 Robotic Arm Edge w/USB Interface Kit., So far, no luck. Does anyone have any idea how to get this started? I’d really appreciate it, thanks.

Find your way over to the NI users forum or, even better, lava.org (LabView users forum). Do a forum search before you post anything.

At worst you’ll get a setup that will requires a few tweaks to turn into a function system.
