Moving Examples to Another FPGA Target

When you install support for an FPGA target, the installation might include examples. The examples are configured for a specific target and are not necessarily configured for the target you install. If the examples are configured for a different target, you can still use the examples by copying the items to a new FPGA target.

1. Create a new target in the Project Explorer window.
2. Create modules for the target, if necessary.
3. Select the FPGA VI and all other items under the original target in the example and drag the items to the new target. Note: The new target must support all items. Refer to the Reusing FPGA VIs and FPGA Items among Multiple FPGA Targets topic linked below for more information about reusing items.
4. Recompile the FPGA VI.
5. If the program includes a host VI, you must update the FPGA VI references. To update the references, right-click the Open FPGA VI Reference function, choose Select VI from the shortcut menu, and navigate to the FPGA VI in the new target.
