Add vi from earler version to LabVIEW 8.0 Project

I have a large number of vi's from 7.1 and I need to add them to 8.0 projects. What is the best way to add them rather than create new vi's? 

Hello,
I would recommend copying the files you want to add to your project to the directory where you have your other 8.0 VIs for that project.  Then you can open those VIs in 8.0, save them in 8.0, and add them to your project.  This way you'll still have your 7.1 copies in case you need them later.

  • Help Iphone 5 trying to add music from itunes version 10

    I just got an iphone 5 and I want to add music from my itunes, which is version 10. when i tried to add music it said that the iphone 5 requires the itunes version 11.1 or later. so, i tried to download the latest itunes and it said that: "This update requires OS X version 10.6.8 or later." My computer is mac version 10.5.8. Somebody please help..

    Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then  "About This Mac".  Write down what it says about "version"and report that here.  Now continue to "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).
    If you have a PPC Mac you cannot sync your idevice without a newer computer.  See the end of this post for options.
    If it says you have an Intel Mac you can upgrade to Snow Leopard, but check system requirements first:
    Snow Leopard 10.6 Technical Requirements - http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    You can buy Snow Leopard at:
    Snow Leopard disc source - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    After installing run the updater to 10.6.8, then upgrade iTunes.
    Jan. 2014 post by Kappy on doing all this: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24599931
    Options if you cannot upgrade:  iTunes Store purchases can already be downloaded directly. Use iTunes Match to put non-Store music in iCloud, then download to your device from there.  Backup your device directly to  iCloud over a wireless connection.  Photos can be downloaded from the Camera Roll using iPhoto or Image Capture.

  • Create 2010 compatible VI from 2011 version of Labview

    Is there a method for creating a VI compatible with the 2010 version of Labview using Labview 2011 and a 2011 compatible VI?   If so what is the method?

  • Steps to add music from a CD to an iMovie 09 project

    Hello all.
    I have made an iMovie video project using the music from iTunes. (most of the iTunes library music was ripped from a CD, others I purchased from iTunes) Other posts have had the same syncing problems when iTunes music is used. (the video and audio are out of sync about 5 min. into the project when viewed in iDVD or in QuickTime.)
    Many of you suggest using the music from the original CD instead of using my iTunes music. The PROBLEM; the information I've gotten to use CD music in iMovie 09 seems to be for another version.
    The instructions basically say to; ( Insert CD, then in iMovie click on the MEDIA BUTTON, and select AUDIO. Choose iTunes library or CD from the POP UP MENU. Select the track from the list in Audio Pane. Then click "PLACE AT PLAYHEAD.")
    Now all of this seems simple enough except there is NO MEDIA BUTTON OR AUDIO BUTTON. iMovie help doesn't help. Maybe one of you very bright people out there has actually done this in iMovie 09 (version 8.0.6)
    Also, I called Apple Support and they told me to use iTunes music, then share the project to my desktop. Open the movie on my desktop and review it with QuickTime. I did this, But the video had THE SAME SYNCING ISSUES. Please, Please, can someone out there help me????

    You cannot unless you use another computer to import it, then copy to a flash drive or similar.

  • Delayed response of when moving objects in diagram and panel, happend in LV 6, only for vi's compiled from previous versions. any suggestions?

    When I using the mouse to select portion of the diagram or the panel, or when I moving objects- I found that in all the vi's that I compiled from former versions of labview- there is a delay of close to a second to the actual selection or movement of the item. This happens in 2 machines out of 5 that I tested it, and it happened both in windows 2000 and in windows 98. any suggestions?

    Sometimes a video driver issue. Update your video driver.
    Or turn down the video driver hardware acceleration. Right-click an
    empty area of the desktop, choose the Settings tab, choose the Advanced
    button.
    The location of this differs in different versions of Windows.
    Win2000: go to Troubleshooting, and turn down the slider for hardware
    acceleration.
    Win98: I think it's on another tab.

  • Identifying and Converting from an older version of LabVIEW

    I have an old .vi program that I am trying to access and run now. I don't know what version of LabView it was written in but I do know it came off of a Windows 95 computer.
    Any Suggestions?

    You said "trying to". Does that mean you've been unsuccessful? On what OS are you trying to run it?
    When you open an old VI in a newer version of LabVIEW, if the VI isn't too old, then it will open. If you close the VI you'll get a dialog asking you to save it. The "explain changes" will tell you the version of LabVIEW used to write the VI.
    If you cannot open the VI because it's too old, and your LabVIEW is too new (e.g., opening a LabVIEW 5.x VI with LV2011), then you can post a request in the Version Conversion board. If the code is really old (e.g., LabVIEW 3.x or earlier), chances are you will not be able to get it upconverted since versions that old require a special toolkit from NI that is not publicly available.

    I think perhaps 8.6 and 8.6.1 is compatible. But I am 100% sure that 2009 and 8.6.(1) is not downwards compatible
    Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted

    It would be better if you can give more information
    1. What is the software version are you using?
    2. What is your target hardware?
    You can check the above information by open MAX -> under software tab of both computer and you target
    I suspect that the software version of your host computer and the target is difference as state in the picture attached.

  • How to install Spectral Measurements and Modulation Toolkits for multiple versions of Labview

    I installed NI-RFSG, NI-RFSA, the Spectral Measurements Toolkit, and the Modulation Toolkit.  I have both LabVIEW 7.1 and 8.0 installed on my system.  I developed an application in LV 8.0 and now I need to revert it to LV 7.1.  The problem I am having is that add-on toolkits seem to only have been installed for LV 8.0 because there are several missing VIs and controls when I try to open the LV 7.1 version.  I tried re-installing the toolkits, but this is not fixing the problem.  How can I get the installer to install the toolkits for both versions of LabVIEW?
    Thanks for your help,
    Cherie
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello Cherie,
    it's a know issue. You can read it in the modulation toolkit readme :
    Two Versions of LabVIEW Installed
    The installer supports installation of the Modulation Toolkit into a single
    version of LabVIEW; installation of the Toolkit into multiple separate
    installations of LabVIEW (for instance LabVIEW 7.0 and LabVIEW 7.1 installed
    on the same PC and in separate directories) is not supported or recommended.
    An unsupported means of doing so though involves manually copying files from
    one LabVIEW installation to another. To do so, you can install the
    Modulation Toolkit to the home directory of one LabVIEW installation, and
    then manually copy the installed files to the other LabVIEW installation.
    The following list includes pertinent directories and files. Copy all files
    from these directories, including any subdirectories, using the equivalent
    relative paths to the LabVIEW home directory for the target.
    <LabVIEW Home>\vi.lib\AddOns\Modulation\*.*
    <LabVIEW Home>\vi.lib\AddOns\NISML\*.*
    <LabVIEW Home>\examples\Modulation\*.*
    <LabVIEW Home>\resource\objmgr\NIMTAttribs.rc
    <LabVIEW Home>\resource\objmgr\NIMTAttribs.rch
    <LabVIEW Home>\help\lvmod.txt
    <LabVIEW Home>\help\lvmod.chm
    <LabVIEW Home>\help\lvdmt.txt
    <LabVIEW Home>\help\lvdmt.chm
    Note that this listing does not include all installed files. Also, copying
    files in this manner is not equivalent to a full installation into the
    alternative version of LabVIEW. Most notably error text unique to the
    Modulation Toolkit will not be updated and the Example Finder listings will
    not show the Modulation Toolkit examples.

  • Event structures in older versions of labview?

    Can anyone tell me how to create a workaround for a 'value change' event structure in an older version of labview?  I have a student  version of LabVIEW 6i and need to create a queued buffer from each value change.  Thank you.

    James.Morris wrote:
    Ah, you're only one release away from the event structure. That's too bad.
    You're going to have to implement a Polling loop that continuously checks the user inputs. Make sure you add a Wait function to the loop (~100ms) because that will act as your chance for the user to make changes. You can use shift register(s) to keep the previous loop's values and compare to get a bunch of Value Change booleans. If you want a specific case for the specific events, then you can group all of your Value Changes in to an array and act upon the ones that are True via a Case Structure.
    The Event Structure only pulls a single event per loop and has a queue of events to handle for following loops. You might encounter multiple value changes in a single loop if the user clicks fast enough, or you trigger value changes. To avoid losing the trailing events, you should probably have a For loop within the Polling loop that handles all True values. Either that, or have a consumer loop that handles all of your events.
    James, I swear I'm not picking on you today
    You can set the maximum number of events alowed in the event queue per event in the edit event dialog box.  Check box and int fields in the lower right side.
    6.i didn't have a "Value (Signaling)" property- (a subject of some CLAD exam questions not that you suggested it)
    Student editions could not use 6.i events.  From 7.0 or 7.1 through 2011 Student Edition could use but not edit event structures. 2012 and on Event Structures are available in "All Versions" of LabVIEW- at the time.  I haven't looked into the newer license options.
    On to licensing options. (Not a lawyer! consult your Legal Dept!)
    If you are not doing work towards earning a educational certificate you should not be using Student Edition.  And, in some cases (Like working on a student project with commercial investment) not even then!
    The Home Edition is also a new option.  It is intended to enable fast "Proof of Concept" development or development for your sole non-comercial use.
    LabVIEW Full and Professional are for comercial use and have a "Home Use License Agreement" clause attached. If your company owns a LabVIEW License you CAN install a copy on a "Home PC" for the limited use of aiding your employer (who paid for the license) such things would arguably enclude "Training"
    NI is not totally opposed to negotiating "Exceptional" agreements for mutually beneficial reasons.  Youl'd better bring a justification better than "I can't afford it"  Go find some investors and buy a license in that case.  And Yes, until the moderators take this down, I did at one time have a LabVIEW license for exclusively engaging the LabVIEW Community (Forums and NI Sponsored events use only- LAVA was not encluded)  I'm not sure if such a deal could be negotiated in the future.  In Fact, The Home Edition would have been less costly.
     

  • Could there be independent VI paths for different versions of LabVIEW?

    Hello,
    When jumping between different versions of LabVIEW (6.1, 7.1, 8.5) it is annoying that the current path for one becomes the current path for the other. 
    If I am working with LV 7.1 in a folder dedicated to 7.1 VI's, and then open LV 8.5, I don't want 8.5 to go to that 7.1 folder by default.  Alternately. if I was working in LV 8.5, closed it out, and then I click on a 7.1 VI, I don't want it to open in LV 8.5. 
    I've tried changing the path options in each version of LabVIEW, but that doesn't seem to help.  Is there any way of isolating these folder paths from one another?  One of our newer LV guys accidently opened some 7.1 code in 8.5.1 and then saved it.  Luckily, I had archived code to return to, but it could have been a disaster.
    Thanks for any ideas,
    McSynth

    You're actually asking two different questions.
    The first question has to do with which version of LabVIEW gets launched when you double-click a file. This is an operating system thing. The one that gets launched is the last one that got used. (Your first question will be: can this be changed? Answer: Change the operating system. Or, play around with the registry each time you quit out LabVIEW.)
    The second question has to do with search paths. These are independent. However, a VI will contain information about its subVIs in terms of where to find them. This is not a function of LabVIEW, as it is a function of the VI. Thus, it will make no difference which version of LabVIEW you use to open the VI. You can, if you wish, modify the search paths that LabVIEW uses to find VIs for each version of LabVIEW from the Tools->Options menu. However, this will not eliminate the problem, and your best bet is to keep those backups frequent.

  • Is there a way to programmatically tell what version of LabVIEW a VI is compiled in?

    Is there a way to tell programmatically what version of LabVIEW a VI is compiled in?
    LabVIEW seems to know.  If you click on "List Unsaved Changes", it (sometimes?) tells you the version of LabVIEW that the VI is already saved under (i.e., 8.0 instead of 8.0.1).  So if LabVIEW knows, maybe they've provided a way for us lower-echelon folks (i.e., customers) to know too, eh?
    Is there a way to get this from, say, VI Properties (i.e., Property Node gets passed a ref to a VI & I select the right property name)?  I couldn't find any property name that has "version" or anything like that, but maybe what I'm looking for is using terms that are so different than what I'm expecting that I just can't tell.
    Or by some other method?  (I gvimmed a few .vi files, and see some stuff that looks like I *could* get the version by parsing/searching the file itself, but parsing the binary might give pretty unreliable results.)

    Just dro a proerty node on the diagram and select property: "Application...Version number" and display the resulting string output.

  • Can NI-PSP be used to communicate between machines developed with different versions of LabVIEW?

    Hi all,
    A customer has a large PC application developed with LabVIEW 2010 SP1.
    They would like to add extend their system with a cRIO-9075. According to this document (ftp://ftp.ni.com/pub/devzone/tut/crio_software_versions.htm ), the minimum supported version of LabVIEW (with Scan Engine support) is LV 2011.
    To minimize risks, it is preferred that we don't upgrade LabVIEW for the main application, which is atively being used in production.
    I was thinking of developing the cRIO software in a newer version of LabVIEW (say, LV 2013 SP1), and using shared variables only to communicate between the PC and the cRIO.
    Is this a viable option? Does it matter if the PC and the cRIO have different versions of the LV runtime?

    It shouldn't matter, but then with shared variables you can never know for sure -- there are so many things that can make them break.
    You might be money ahead to write the comm using TCP/IP. You know that will work.
