Can you use event case with labview real time?

I have a real time application I am putting together and until recentally have concentrated on getting the data acquisition working as expected.
I am using a PXI-8183 in a 1031 chassis.
I am now trying to add the functionality for setting up the system in the form of a GUI remote front panel that I connect to with a host laptop. I am connecting with the host as expected and it seems to be working well in that respect.
My problem is with event cases, operating in a while loop on the target. They just dont seem to want to trigger when i click on a button I have set an event for.
I have looked through the documentation and cant see any reference to issues with event cases on rt, but I feel I am missing something fundamental. Can anyone help?
Regards,
Barry

Is Ardence RTX required when I use PCI-7831R with labview real-time module for RTX target

I am new in the labview real-time field. I want to use labview real-time module for RTX target on only one desktop. My card is PCI-78331R. Is Ardence RTX necessary? Why I cannot find my card in the MAX after I configured the RTX?
Thank you very much.

Hi Ziaozhongda,
You must have the RTX runtime engine installed before the LabVIEW Real-Time RTX module will install. Additionally, you should follow the instructions in the "Using the NI PCI-7831R with the LabVIEW Real-Time Module for RTX" section of Getting Started with the NI 7831R (page 8).
Please see Configuring Hardware for Use with RTX.
Also useful is "How Can I Validate That My PC Will Run RTX?

How can I create a Report with LabView Real-Time?

With conventional LabView, I can create Reports in HTML, for example to document Errors.
I need this feature in LabView Realtime. Is it possible?

It is possible, but you got to put a name to the file with an extension of three letters. i.e. errors.htm
Three letters on the extension is what the RT Operating system allows to use.
Then you will need to do an ftp to your RT machine and get the file and maybe change the extensions.
Not all the vis for Report generation can be used in the RT engine. The ones that use ACTIVE X will not work. i.e printting
Another way to generate reports and the most recommended is to use the host machine to generate the reports.

How come you can not use more than 126GB of a 1.5TB diskdrive with LabVIEW Real Time?

How come you can not use more than 126GB of a 1.5TB diskdrive with LabVIEW Real Time?
This is only 8.3% of the available disk drive space!
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/E7E2F5657B6026358625750B007201A6?OpenDocument
National Instrument's solution is either reformat you drive to less than 126GB or replace the drive with one less than that size.
Please NI, tell me you are going to fix your LabVIEW Real Time soon, and that we won't have to wait for LabVIEW RT 9.2.1 in 2011 for this one to be fixed.
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/90/Hard_drive_capacity_over_time.svg
Drives as large as 126GB or more have been around since about mid 2002. That's about 7 Years now and LabVIEW Real Time STILL can't use drives larger that 126GB! Please NI. Do something.
We deserve fixes to the old versions of LabVIEW RT. How about updates to LabVIEW RT. Such as 7.0.2, 7.1.2, 7.6.2, 8.0.2, 8.2.2, 8.6.2.
We don't need new features or versions of LabVIEW RT such as 9.0 until we have some of bugs fixed in the existing versions.

The RealTime OS is an NI Product that is purchased from NI.
NI may or may not outsource design, developement, or manufacturing of the products that it sells under its own Company name.
For this reason I would be concerned if I were a PXI Embedded Controller designer/developer in the United States.
Yes, 126GB is some space. I see that there are now 2TB drives available. 126GB would be 6.3% of a new 2TB drive. Should we all be happy with being able to use 6.3% of the available drive space. Moore's Law seams to be alive and well. Drives larger than 126GB have been readily available for 5 or 6 Years. This should not be a surprise to NI. Why don't they do something about it.
Thanks for the trivia on Bill Gates. I must have missed that one since I don't try to keep up with Microsoft. I believe that he is a wonderful person and he and his family are doing wonders for the world in their "retirement". The world needs more like him.
What I do remember is Steve Jobs telling us that we would never need more that 128MB and that we would never to need to do anymore software development because everything was already in the "ToolBox".

So you are saying that the recovery discs I made do include the copy of windows that was originally installed?
Absolutely! They will restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents. Follow the instructions in the section Restoring from recovery DVDs/media, which begins on p. 73 of the User's Guide.

maybe i can make a deal with wd to have them swap this drive out for the BEKT instead...
That would be a good idea in any case.
As I said, the 10-fc12-045d error would not be due to the drive's being AFT, but more likely the discs are not being read properly. New discs can be obtained from Toshiba. Scroll down to Get Recovery Media here

Could I use two regular computer to achieve realtime communication using the Ethercat and Labview Real Time Module?

Could I use two regular computers (one acts master , another one acts as slave using the Ethercat Internet Card) to achieve realtime communication using the Ethercat and Labview Real Time Module? if it could, what hardware should I purchase from the NI ?
Thank you!

Hi Xiaolin,
NI doesn't offer Windows based Ethercat master or slave software. Only LabVIEW RT can run the Ethercat driver.
However, you could use a LabVIEW RT target as an Ethercat master and use the Ethercat Internet Card with a slave PC (note: I think this will work from the Beckhoff description of the card you are describing. The card should integrate like any other non-NI slave. However I haven't tested the setup and don't advise saying it will work until you have tried).
You can use any NI RT target with two ethernet ports as the Ethercat master. This could be a cRIO, PXI or RT Desktop.

The Problem about Monitoring Motion using PCI-7358 on LabVIEW Real Time Module

Hello everyone,
I have a problem about monitoring the position of an axis. First let me give some details about the motion controller system I’m using.
I’m using PCI-7358 as controller and MID-7654 as servo driver, and I’m controlling a Maxon DC Brushed motor. I want to check the dynamic performance of the actuator system in a real time environment so I created a LabVIEW function and implemented it on LabVIEW Real Time module.
My function loads a target position (Load Target Position.vi) and starts the motion. (Start.vi) then in a timed loop I read the instantaneous position using Read Position.vi. When I graphed the data taken from the Read Position.vi, I saw that same values are taken for 5 sequential loops. I checked the total time required by Read Position.vi to complete its task and it’s 0.1ms. I arranged the loop that acquires the data as to complete its one run in 1ms. But the data shows that 5 sequential loops read the same data?

Read Position.flx can execute much faster than 5 ms but as it reads a register that is updated every 5 ms on the board, it reads the same value multiple times.
To get around this problem there are two methods:
Buffered High-Speed-Capturing (HSC)
With buffered HSC the board stores a position value in it's onboard buffer each time a trigger occurrs on the axis' trigger input. HSC allows a trigger rate of about 2 kHz. That means, you can store a position value every 500 µs. Please refer to the HSC examples. You may have to look into the buffered breakpoint examples to learn how to use a buffer, as there doesn't seem to be a buffered HSC example available. Please note that you need an external trigger-signal (e. g. from a counter of a DAQ board). Please note that the amount of position data that you can acquire in a single shot is limited to about 16.000 values.
Buffered position measurement with additional plugin-board
If you don't have a device that allows you to generate a repetitive trigger signal as required in method 1.), you will have to use an additional board, e. g. a PCI-6601. This board provides four counter/timers. You could either use this board to generate the trigger signal or you could use it to do the position capturing itself. A PCI-6601 (or an M-Series board) provides can run a buffered position acquisition with a rate of several hundred kHz and with virtually no limitation to the amount of data to be stored. You could even route the encoder signals from your 7350 to the PCI-6601 by using an internal RTSI cable (no external wiring required).
I hope this helps,

How do I talk to 1-Wire devices with LabVIEW Real-Time?

Hello, I'm trying to use LabVIEW Real-Time to talk to some older 1-Wire devices that my company has previously communicated with using C code. We are currently developing on a cRIO and are trying to use a Dallas Semiconductor 2480 serial port device to talk to some iButtons and a secure SHA 1-Wire device. I have run into a few problems where the 1-Wire device stops communicating and just repeats the data sent to it. I was wondering if anyone has successfully created any VI's to talk with 1-Wire devices via the serial port that do NOT use any kind of Java or .NET or Windows based device drivers supplied by Dallas Semi. A last resort would be that we keep the C code and place it in a block in LabVIEW and run it as is but I would prefer to have some LabVIEW-native code. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Brian_T,
Thanks for that link about compiling a shared library for use on a VxWorks cRIO. The only thing they mention that I don't understand is this bit:
"GNU toolchain distributed with Wind River VxWorks"
I have been unable to locate a compiler for VxWorks so I am assuming that is located in this GNU toolchain thing? Does that come with the cRIO? I think I noticed a VxWorks C compiler somewhere else online but we're talking a totally different product I would have to purchase, assuming it would even work. I guess once the stub and the shared library are all good to go, I just call the C functions in the shared library and when it comes time to talk to the serial port, just slap a VISA Read/Write VI on the block diagram. I've been using a cRIO and COM1 access for some time now so I do understand at least that much. Let me know how to get ahold of this "toolchain" thing. Thanks.

Can you use the Grid with the Straighten Tool in the HUD?

A grid appears when using the mouse to straighten an image but not when using the more accurate sliders in the HUD! Doesn't make sense. Is it possible to turn the grid on when using the HUD?

gocuk2@yahoo. wrote:
Colin is under the impression the slider is the more accurate, but that is not the case on my machine. I assume therefore the slider is for course adjustment and the grid is to aid judgement were the finest control is available.
Hi Allan. Can you confirm that you cannot get 0.1º changes by clicking the slider arrows (on each side of the number to the right of the slider) while pressing {Option}?
I'm getting at least that level of precision. I say "at least" because sometimes I will get a change in the image with no change in the number. I assume that the change is measurable, but is rounded and therefore not shown in the control which shows only tenths.
On my machine there is no difference in precision between the slider with modifier keys and the on-image adjustment.

Can you use audio chat with PCs with microphones?

Is there a simple way to link audio chat between Windows and Mac?

You can audio-chat with a PC user with the latest version of AIM and a mic (on the PC). On the Mac side though, you need to have a camera (camcorder or iSight) plugged in. You cannot audio-chat with a PC AIM user without a camera.
I use my powerbook 1.33 GHz, iChat AV3 and my Sony DV camcorder (FW) to audio-chat with friends using PCs eqipped with AIM and just a mic. No problems at all.

Can you use wifi sync with multiple libraries and multiple devices

Hi all
Does anyone know if you can use wifi sync with 1 computer, 2 libraries and 2 devices?
I have my wife's iPhone synced to 1 library and mine to another library but on the same computer. Will wifi sync work this way or do you need iTunes to be open to the correct library for it to work? As I know you can't have 2 instances of itunes open on the same computer.
Anyway thanks for any help

I have been looking more and more into this and it appears no.
You need to have iTunes running on the computer to enable it to wifi sync. You can use 2 devices on 1 library but if you don't have all the right options ticked you will then end up with each others stuff on each others device.
To enable wifi sync you need to have your iDevice connected to the same wifi network as your computer and iTunes open on that computer.
With my library open it detected my wife's phone and started to sync. Hasty push of cancel sync button lol.
There is a guide on here somewhere about multiple devices with 1 library which I can't find at the moment that tells you which options to tick so only your stuff stays on your device the the other half's on their device.
Its basically tick 'sync only ticked songs and videos' under summary of your device
Under apps take tick out of 'automatically sync new apps'
Then under edit->preferences click device and click prevent i's from syncing automatically
I think you should then be able to sync both devices to 1 library with mucking them up too much
Hopefully please correct me if I'm wrong
I have tried not doing the last step and asking it to open itunes automatically when phone is connected but this does not work with wifi sync
Have fun hopefully someone else can give us a better answer
