"RT-FPGA" communication

The RT VI operates (writes) the front-panel controls of the FPGA VI and reads its indicators.
Efficiently transfer blocks of data between the RT and FPGA by direct memory access (DMA) first-in first-out (FIFO) buffers.
Load and run a modified version of the default Academic RIO Device personality (FPGA bitfile) augmented by user-defined functionality, for example, to make a high-precision measurement of pulse width.
