Activating a vi on a remote computer (and transferring the data back) via a TCP/IP connection

Hi all,
I need some help in creating a vi that can be activated remotely using a TCP/IP connection. Can this be done. If it can, I have a vi (that would be on the remote computer) that manipulates the data as required and saves the data file. While the connection is open, I need to retrieve the data file from the remote computer. Can anybody help, I am running labview 6.
Thanks
Ridge

Ridge,
This is what the "i" in LabVIEW 6i stands for. Internet applications (collection of data through IP) was a basis for the release of 6i. This is not only a capability, but is built in as easy to do.
Unfortunately, I have little experience in this arena. I have built TCP/IP client server relationships, but never remotely controlled a VI over IP, so I can't advise you.
I would suggest the following:
Look up remote VIs on NI's website, specifically in Application Notes, and examples/downloads.
Check the examples that ship with LabVIEW.
Look for other documentation within LabVIEW (search through help).
Contact your local sales rep for some assistance.
I do remember seeing some kind of demo about this a long time ago, and remember
it being extremely easy. However; I never had use for it, so I never did anything with it.
You should have the ability to get started very quickly.
Good luck, and let us know how you do.

  • I just bought a 4s. I attached to my computer and now the data/songs/etc from my ITOUCH are on it? How do I get it off and get my contacts back!

    Help! I am so darn fustrated!!!!!!

    Sorry, if you reset your Sync Key your data was deleted from the Sync server. Your data is gone.
    Mozilla keeps just one "copy" of your data, there are no backups made to be "restored" if the user makes a mistake such as this. Plus, the Sync service isn't made for or intended for "backing up" your data for the purposes of restoring that data after a format of a PC. Yes, some users do that, but "you" need the Sync Key or you're SOL, as now. Mozilla didn't intend Sync to be used in that manner.

  • ABAP proxy client sending to XI   and Receive the data back from the DB

    Hi
    I am new to XI need a clarification on the following scenario
    I have a scenarion where ABAP Proxy (Clinet) from ECC will be sending the data to Data base server via XI,  and needs to return the values back to ECC
    ECC -
    > XI/PI -
    > Remote server  (Database)
          <-- XI/PI <--
    Can anyone give idea how can I develop this scenario.
    I am sure I would be using the Proxy BADI to send the data from ECC to XI in Asyscrounous mode,
    Thanks
    PR

    Hi,
    As you said the data will be sent asynchronously from BAPI to XI which means you will have to split up the scenario into two.
    First One -
    Sender Proxy - XI - Receiver JDBC.
    Second -
    Sender JDBC - XI - Receiver Proxy.
    You can set a flag to"1" when you insert data into table. the run a query on the database which will fetch record whose flay is set to "1" and also simultaneously rest the flag to "0" to indicate that this record is already send to SAP.You can make use of stored procedures too.
    Please award points if the reply is useful.

  • My Vista system crashed due to a corrupted windows file. When I reformatted C:/ & reloaded firefox & tbird, my bookmarks were gone. I have an image of the drive , but I don't know how to recover them and get the data back where I can access it.

    Vista system crashed due to a corrupted system file. The C drive was reformatted, and windows reloaded, along with the rest of my programs.
    Before the drive was reformatted, an image was made of it on a USB drive to save all the data. Now I need to know how to get the Bookmarks back for Firefox, and the Address Book back for Thunderbird.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the quick response. It worked very well, for both Firefox and Tbird.
    One hitch, until I remembered: those are all hidden files, in hidden folders. I had a devil of a time finding the "roaming" folder, until I found out how to unhide everything. In years past, I used DOS for that kind of thing. Explorer is much less user-friendly. Now that I know how to do it, it's simple.
    Thanks again for the guidance

  • Will Time Machine backup 2 internal HDs and put the data back into them when restoring?

    Hello,
    I am going to be doing a clean install of Snow Leopard. I have a machine that has 2 internal HDs. If they are backup up using Time Machine, when restoring, will it put those files exactly as they were?
    Thanks!

    Restore to a multiple disk setup should work fine. But there are as always some tricks to it.
    See our expert Pondini's explaination and follow his links.. I suggest you actually spend some time understanding how TM works.
    http://pondini.org/TM/32.html
    I would also recommend spending a few dollars and buy CCC or superduper. Make a backup of each drive. These 3rd party backup programs are more flexible and you can create direct images of the drives. It makes recovery a much much easier process.
    If it is a Mac Pro put in another disk for TM backups and use a USB or even esata card and external sata drive for backups using CCC. Doing it that way you can make a bootable image of your main drive.

  • Need help sending dialog to remote computer and saving results

    As the title states, what I want to do is send a dialog box to all remote computers listed in the array $compnames where I can receive a yes or no and either save this as a file or array to pass back to my local computer to shutdown the ones where either
    a yes or no answer is received. I have the following code segment and I am missing the no answer received part and I am not sure how to receive the responses form each computer.
    Invoke-Command -ComputerName $element -scriptblock {
    [system.reflection.assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("system.windows.forms")
    $useOutput = [System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::Show("The Lab is being shut down. Press YES to abort.", "WARNING", 'YesNo', 'Exclamation')
    if ($useOutput -eq [Windows.Forms.DialogResult]::Yes)
    $sendBack = 0
    Write-Output $sendBack
    else
    $sendBack = 1
    Write-Output $sendBack
    <# TODO: 1) write computer name and whether a user clicked yes to abort to a csv file (save just no's for logs)
    1.1) maybe add computer name to
    2) immediately shut down any computer where user allows shutdown
    3) after 30 seconds, add remaining computers with no action to csv file to shut down
    4) Open messagebox popup on host computer to ask if want to shutdown remaining computers
    5) Shut down remaining computers
    #>
    if ($sendBack -eq 1)
    #if the computer is ready to turn off
    #shut it down
    else
    #add to array or file to be shut down later
    Any guidance or advice would be great! 
    -------Edit 1-----------
    In accordance with what this first two commenters have posted. I am thinking of a quirky solution.
    What if I have a script on the remote computer that I call with the Invoke-Command that opens a message box and then depending on the response uses the msg.exe cmdlet to send either a 1 or a 0 back. The host computer then takes these answers and creates
    two arrays, one for yeses and one for nos. I guess the only issue with this would be is receiving the messages in an orderly manner over the course of 30seconds and having the messages be 'silent' so the script picks them up but there is no explicit message
    pop up on my computer.
    I have found the following from the invoke-command section of ss64.com:
    "Run the Test.ps1 script on the Server64 computer. The script is located on the local computer. The script runs on the remote computer and the results are returned to the local computer:PS C:\> invoke-command -filepath c:\scripts\test.ps1 -computerName
    Server64"
    So could I not send a message box through this and have the result returned to me?

    Actually, it might be doable (albeit not all that ... cleanly):
    Create a task on the remote computer that will run under any currently logged in user which displays a messagebox that returns values and writes the result to a file. (Which will of course require a folder where all users have write permissions to to write
    the files in)
    Trigger the task
    Check for result files
    Cheers,

  • What is the procedure for a hard boot of my iPod touch 4th generation without itunes, and without computer, and without iPod data screen.?

    What is the procedure for a hard boot of my iPod touch 4th generation
    without iTunes, and without computer, and without iPod data screen?
    6 months after purchase I updated my iPod touch as recommend by iTunes.
    It has not worked since that day.  It frozen (disabled) with a "connect to
    iTunes" icon displayed...that is the only thing it does.  itunes does not
    recognize the iPod.  My Windows7 computer recognizes an Apple device. 
    Other computers recognize the devise but if iTunes resided on that
    computer it did not recognize the iPod
    I suffered a setback with deep depression and am just now getting out of it enough to do something.  The depression prohibited me from taking action.
    I have done every procedure recommended from Apple help and external
    sources.  I did this thoroughly with help for other owners and IT experts,
    Apple employees etc etc.  I and associates have perform reboots utilizing a
    number procedure using only button on the iPod.  These were unsuccessful
    also have performed.
    Please do not ask me to do the usual.
    Online I saw  a process using the buttons on the iPod to completely
    reformat 
    the iPod.  It was NOT the hold buttons for 10 sec let go of one wait 8 sec
    etc.  I can not find the process now...a friend showed it to me in passing
    I have lost contact with him.  This is the procedure, I believe, that with
    enable me to update and use the iPod. 

    You need an internet connection and likely a computer with iTunes but an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with the FindMy iPhone App may work by:
    If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
    Otherwise
    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:                                                             
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:           
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    Yo may have to go to an Apple store or a friend's house with an internet connection and iTunes.

  • I can't sync/back up iPhone data to my computer b/c iPhone screen is shattered and i cant unlock it to enter in my passcode. How can I sync my broken iPhone with my computer and back up my data so I can sync and transfer the data to my replacement iPhone?

    I can't sync my iPhone and back up my data with my computer because iTunes says to enter the passcode into my iPhone to unlock it, but I am unable to unlock and enter in my passcode on my iPhone because the screen is shattered. I have my replacement iPhone with me and I'm not going to activate it until I can sync/get the data from my broken iPhone. I have the envelope to send my broken iPhone back to the Verizon store or whatever so that's not a problem. I just can't sync my old iPhone with my computer.
    Thanks.

    No I haven't synced my iPhone with the computer I'm currently using. The computer that I normally sync my iPhone with is being repaired.
    I read a nearly identical question to mine (in which you answered) and I found my the answer. Thanks!
    Now I have a few more questions: If I mail my broken iPhone to Asurion, will I be able to get my data off of my iPhone once Asurion has it? And what will happen to my old iPhone and the data on it if I activate my replacement iPhone? Will my broken iPhone just become de-activated and will the data be erased or lost or something? Could I still sync it (with the computer ir originally synced with) and back up the data?
    Thanks.

  • In trying to transfer iWeb pages (not uploaded) to another computer I went into the library and transferred the domain onto the desktop. Disaster! On opening iWeb all previous (uploaded) sites have disappeared. Help!

    In trying to transfer iWeb pages (not uploaded) to another computer I went into the Library and transferred the domain onto the desktop. Disaster! On opening iWeb all previous (uploaded) sites have disappeared. On opening the domain all I can recover is the many component parts, and when unzipped the code. Help! Mike

    Code in a domain file - really?  That is not possible because the domain.sites file does not contain any html or css code at all - the domain file is your iWeb data file and you won't see any code until you publish your website.
    If you can see html code, then you have the wrong file and it is a published version of your site which iWeb can do nothing with - iWeb has no import facility so cannot open any html files.
    Go back and ensure that you have the correct domain.sites files that can be found under your User Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites and if you have Mavericks then you need to go to Go and press the alt key to reveal your hidden User Library, so that you can then get to Application Support and then iWeb and then your domain.sites file.
    You will also need to go and download either DomainCracker or iWebSwitch which allows you to open individual domain files under Mavericks, because from Lion onwards, you cannot open individual domain files.
    Also, it says that you are still using iWeb 08?  If this is so, you'll either need to upgrade to iWeb 09 by going to Amazon and purchasing the iLife 09 or 11 boxed set, both of which contain iWeb 09 or you need to switch to newer software that is actively being supported and developed such as EverWeb (http://www.everwebapp.com).

  • I purchased a new computer and transferred itunes, but can't get the podcasts I downloaded after the transfer to sync to my nano

    I purchased a new computer and transferred itunes to it but now can't get podcasts downloaded after the transfer to sync with device.

    So you have these podcasts downloaded and stored in your iTunes library is that correct?  However, they will not sync with the device?  Are these video or audio podcasts?
    How is your Nano currently configured to sync podcasts?  You can check this by viewing the iPod's Podcasts configuration tab in iTunes.  To view this tab, plug your iPod in and select it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes to bring yourself to the Summary tab that now shows to the right.  Look for the Podcasts tab along the top and select it.  Here you can configure how and what Podcasts are synced.
    If you do happen to make any changes from under this tab, be sure to hit the Apply button to sync the updated changes to the Nano.
