Adapting custom driver for a robotic device that is interfacin​g with an FPGA

Hi,
I have a custom driver for a robotic device that I'd like to interface with an FPGA that is reading the digital encoder signals. I am a novice at programing driver files so any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Hey Xaq,
Well we had some other side projects to work on, and I'm no back working with the Windows/FPGA interface. I have one VI that is able to determine the relative position of the PHANTOM device. We're doing this by using 3 loops (one for each motor), running in parallel. So from LabView I have the x,y,z location of the device. As a first pass I want to build a dll that allows my C program to query to position at any time.
A couple problems here:
We probably need to break up the vi into several sub vi's, but I'm not sure where to start. Should the contents of each loop be placed into its own file?
Also we've just upgraded to 8.2, and I'm noticing the method for building dll's has changed significantly. I was not involved with the conversion process, and I'm a bit confused about the tree structure. Under My Computer we have the FPGA target (this comes from our original *.lep project). If I go to Build Specifications here, the only option is to create a new Source Distribution. If I go back up a level to My Computer, the Build Specifications allows me to build a shared library, but now I can't find the vi listed for the FPGA target.
Please let me know what I should do next. Thanks!

    I agree with teh OWC sggestion above, but why must it be USB powered? I find that far more unreliable, and the low power devices slow.
    I'd frankly get a good external enclosure and buy a bare drive.  But the OWC stuff is quite good - vastly better than some of the majors (WD being aprime example of stuff that's boderline quality and often not compatible)

  • How to build a Labview driver for a USB device?

    I have purchased a USB Hall probe (a device that measures magnetic fields) and now I need to build a LabVIEW driver for it (the company that sells this device did not build drivers for it, to keep the price down I suppose). The USB device does come with an operating software, but what I need is to control the device using LabVIEW. I have some experience with LabVIEW, but none with building drivers. I don´t really know where to start, so any advice would be helpful.

    To do USB in LabVIEW you'll want to get the NI-VISA driver. After you've got VISA, check out a few examples:

    Six Things You Need to Know about USB Instrument Control
    There are also examples built in to LabVIEW (under Help>>Find Examples to open the NI Example Finder, then under Hardware Input and Output>>VISA)

    This is just a shot in the dark....
    Do you have all your devices hooked up (and on) when you launch FMLE?  For example -- your camera or digitizer?  When FMLE launches it will try to launch with the last known settings... including input devices.  If it can't find these devices (they're not hooked up and on) it can crash, although in most situations it will simply show a default screen with default settings.
    If you do have your equipment hooked up (and on) when you launch FMLE, try unplugging them and then launching FMLE so that it opens up in default configuration mode (no input devices selected; all default settings).  Then uncheck the "preview" boxes for both your input and output preview windows.  Close FMLE and then plug in your equipment (and turn it on) and relaunch FMLE.  I offer this suggestion as FMLE can sometimes act funny when the preview windows are open with certain types of input devices.  Don't worry -- you don't have to keep the preview windows off forever.  If you can get FMLE to successfully launch with the preview windows off, then you can set your settings however you like and save the profile.  Then quit and relaunch FMLE and then turn the preview windows back on and see if it works.  If it does, great.  Just be aware that making any settings changes while the preview windows are open could result in FMLE crashing.   Again -- this only happens with some capture devices, such as certain Dazzle capture boxes.
    If none of this works, you could always try to upgrade to FMLE 3.2 and see if that solves your problem.

  • Is there a driver for Windows 8.1 that works with HP Scanjet 5500c

    Is there a driver for Windows 8.1 that works with HP Scanjet 5500c
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    I afraid you will not be able to use the scanner with Windows 8.1, it is not compatible with the OS.
    Regarding VueScan, I afraid it would not be an option as well, the application only support your scanners if there are drivers for the OS:
    If there isn't an HP scanner driver at www.hp.com for your operating system, then unfortunately VueScan won't work with this scanner.
    You may try using the Vista drivers by running the drivers using the Program Compatibility Troubleshooter as listed below.. select Not Listed from the programs list and browse to the installation file for Vista:

  • Looking for a back up drive for photos and videos that works with time machine, prefer wireless. Time capsule has poor reviews and already have BT hub

    Looking for a back up drive for photos and videos that works with time machine, prefer wireless. Time capsule has poor reviews and already have BT hub that serves as a good router. 3gb or 4gb capacity preferred but 2 would suffice.

    Plug a NAS into the BT Hub that does TM. Look at Synology.
    You just use the wireless of the hub.
    But the cheapest solution is still the TC.

  • Is there going to be a firmware upgrade for mountain lion customers that have a Macbook with a soild state drive so we can use the Power Nap feature?

    Is there going to be a firmware upgrade for mountain lion customers that have a Macbook with a soild state drive so we can use the Power Nap feature?

    here: http://www.apple.com/osx/whats-new/
    "Power Nap requires a Mac notebook with built-in flash storage. May require a firmware update."
    We have to wait for the Firmware-Updates. Some are already here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5394
    And I am shure, that you will need for Power Nap one of the newer Macs with SSD from 2011 and 2012.

  • Maximum number of concurrent devices that could be used with embedde oracle

    Hi,
    How to know what will be the maximum number of concurrent devices that could be used with embedded oracle?
    Any help will be needful for me

    I assume you are talking about an Oracle-supplied database engine. Currently Oracle has several database engines: Oracle Database (Personal/Enterprise/Standard/Express); Oracle Berkeley Database; Oracle Times Ten Database; (iirc) InnoDB Transactional engine; and down the road possibly MySQL.
    Many people mean Berkeley when asking this kind of question, but sice you ask it in an Oracle Database forum as compared to a Berkeley engine forum, I am not quite sure.
    If you indeed mean 'Oracle Database', then it is a lecense question that needs to be discussed by you license people and Oracle sales.

  • I have songs that show up on my device, that come up grey with the dashed circle, and cannot be deleted.

    I have songs that show up on my daughter's device, that come up grey with the dashed circle, and cannot be deleted.
    I have tried:
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes      
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.        
    This has not helped.
    All music is off the ipod.
    When I connect to the computer to sync I still have songs that come up grey with the dashed circle.

    If they were deleted from the computer and iTunes, the only way to listen to them again would be to insert the CD and listen to them from the CD or rip them from the CD again.

    Has anyone found a workaround driver for using a Xerox WorkCentre PE220 Series printer with Mountain Lion?

    John -
    My "Use" menu only contains Apple print drivers.  And Canon drivers, from the location I set this machine up.  None for my home use....which is a Xerox machine.
    Not being on the menu, I don't know how to acquire this generic driver. 
    Any further helpful hints?
    I appreciate your thoughts and help.

  • Creation Of Custom Transaction For RF enabled devices "mobile data entry"

    Hello Everyone,
    i need some information, or some material or some example's for creating custom transactions that will invoke the standard good issue transaction of sap from the handled device using the RF , so can anybody give some reference which will help me in creating custom transaction for a RF enabled handled device, which will invoke the standard sap goods issue transaction( mb1a) ,, there are some LM-transaction which do goods issue from the RF enabled handled device, but in my case i want to do goods issue using reservation as my input, so can anybody guide me or send some reference material matching to my problem, i would really appreciate it..
    thanks in advance...
    sapient2006

    Hi Hussaini,
    Here are the steps.
    1> Customization needs to be completed in SPRO. Logistics Execution -> Mobile Data entry section. Also compare entries with LM01 for understanding.
    2> In the 'Define menu management', you can create dynamic menus. For Menu or transaction type, if you enter "1", a menu appears; if you enter "2", a transaction appears. Custom transactions can be created and assigned here.
    Once that is done, when you execute LM01 you will see your custom transactions come up. Make sure that these are created keeping in mind the RF device screen size and limitations.
    Regards,
    Anand.

  • Is there a driver for the PXI-8310 that works with Windows 7?

    The only one I can seem to find is for XP.

    Hello LouisTI,
    Unfortunately there is not a Windows 7 driver for the PXI-Cardbus8310, as this is a legacy device which is currently going EOL (End of Life). The XP driver for the 8310 (which you may already have found) can be downloaded here:
    http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/370/lang/en
    If using Win 7 is critical, we recommend the PXI-ExpressCard 8360 as a replacement for the 8310:
