The Compiling VI for FPGA dialog box appears when you compile an FPGA VI.

Use this dialog box to view status information while the FPGA VI is compiling. You also can use this dialog box to disconnect from the LabVIEW FPGA Compile Server or cancel the compilation.

This dialog box includes the following components:

• Client ID—Displays a unique ID that is associated with the VI that is being compiled.
• Server ID—Displays the Server Service ID on the server side. To view previous compile records, launch the LabVIEW FPGA Compile Server by selecting Start»All Programs»National Instruments»LabVIEW 8.2»LabVIEW FPGA Utilities»Compile Server. Click the Compile List button, and enter the Server ID in the numeric control.
• Status—Displays the status of the compilation throughout the process.
• Refresh—Updates the client with the latest information from the server. If you do not click the Refresh button, you experience a 20-second delay between updates from the server.
• Disconnect—Disconnects LabVIEW from the LabVIEW FPGA Compile Server while the LabVIEW FPGA Compile Server compiles the VI. Disconnect from the LabVIEW FPGA Compile Server to perform other operations in LabVIEW while the FPGA VI is compiling. Run the VI again to reconnect to the LabVIEW FPGA Compile Server. You also can reconnect to the compilation through the Beginning Compile dialog box.

  Caution  Do not make changes to the FPGA VI while the LabVIEW FPGA Compile Server is compiling. If you do make changes, you must recompile the FPGA VI.

• Cancel—Stops the LabVIEW FPGA Compile Server and closes the client without finishing the compilation.
