Analog signal change(module 9381) in labview when activating switch on relay module (NI9481) on seperate circuit

We are getting analog voltage changes in Labview on several different inputs (not found with multimeter). It happens when we activate the NI 9481 relay module with a 24V DC signal to power a solenoid. Don't understand why this is happens or why it shows on three different inputs in LabVIEW but not when testing the points with a meter.

That picture is of little help, since the devices will report what they measure, wether it is the voltage of interest or not
To find the root cause of that effect, you 'just' have to follow the current. However current and to note _fast changing current_  can go funny, not always so obvious ways.
That's why I asked for details of the setup, and every wire counts
(and ground is a con......   see sig)
And a as fast as possible sampled voltage channel while a switch is actvated (say 20ms) would help too.

  • Triggering an analog signal using USB6008

    Hi I'm trying to use the start trigger with DAQmxBase acquiring analog signals with the USB 6008.
    When i configure the trigger as Start Digital Edge I become an answer, but only starting at an rising edge.
    I want the acquisition to start at a define level, so I've tried with Start Analog Edge, but the acquisition is stopped.
    Can someone help me how to configure better than i do?
    Thanks.

    Hi!
    It's not possible to configure an analog trigger with an USB 6008 -> only digital trigger is available!
    If you want to start on a predefined level then is the only option to do this with an analog-software trigger!

  • Has anyone had to abandon their current voice plan when activating iphone?

    Has anyone had to change their current voice plan when activating the iphone? I want to get the iphone, but the restrictions are killing me. I can't apply my 24% business discount, no MMS capabilities, no video and the ATT rep told me that I would have to change my current voice plan. The voice plan is the biggest issue. I can live with the others.
    I current have a family share plan with 850 anytime minutes (unlimited nights and weekends and M2M) for $59.99/month. This plan is way better than anything ATT is currently offering. Has anyone had to deal with this?

    I was told when I bought the phone from the Rep at the AT&T store that I would get a 15% discount off my bill for work.. knowing she sold me an iPhone. Emails have went back and forth since October where she said I had to wait a couple of montsh for it process. After calling AT&T customer service and asking them why that my discount column on the bill shows 0.00 and going to the store I bought it and talking to another rep, they both said it doesn't apply to iPhone accounts. After sending another email to the original rep, she goes back on her word and confirms it's not happening. Thank God its a cool phone, otherwise I'd hang up AT&T over that $15/mo I've been missing out on.

  • Problem when combinning PWM signal and Analog signal TOGETHER!

    Hello everybody,
    first of all i have DAQmx 6212, and i need to run a small water pump (9V-16V) which needs to be driven by a PWM signal; also i have a motor (5V-13V) for a water valve that needs to be driven by a analog signal and it has a built in a force feedback potentiometer, i connected on the extremeties of this potentiometer +5V from the DAQmx and used the output voltage from the third extremety as a diagnose value for knowing the position of the motor.
    my VI shows:
    1. is a normal Counter output to create my PWMout signal.
    2. is an analog input i use it as a PWMin to the LabVIEW to diagnose what is happenning in my water pump through the duty cycle and the frequency.
    3. is an analog input from the third extremety of the potentiometer.
    4. is an analog output which i have used as a power supply for the motor valve and i have used an AC/DC amplifier to aplify the signal from the DAQmx and drive the motor, between (3. and 4.) i have made a feedback with some calculations i had a P-controller to know the actual position of the motor valve.
    My Problem:
    when putting 1. and 2. in the same VI alone, i am getting a clean PWM in/out with no problems mentioned;
    also when putting 3. and 4. in the same VI alone i can control the motor valve without any problems;
    but when i put all these 4 together as found in the attached VI, i have a problem that the motor valve is running continously without stopping even if i change the valve position between 0 and 100 %, i should mention that i am seeing a normal PWM out/in signal on my oscilloscope, one other thing that if i delete one of (1. or 2.)  and run the VI the motor valve is working fine without any problems.
    so this my problem, if you can think of any solution please let me know.
    thanks in advance for your help.

    Alosh

    Dear nathand thanks for your reply,
    i have ran the vi again and i am have error no 50103 from the (AI, number 3. )  but it is not displaying the error message, the VI keeps running without any error notification.
    adding to that,  i have tested the VI again today by placing (1. and 2.for the PWM inout) together in one VI and (3. and 4.for the motor valve) in another VI and ran them one after the other, i had another problem. if i turn the motor valve vi, the motor will run smoothly but in the pwm vi i will have a problem in which the AI did not read any value. also doing this vice versa by running the pwm vi first it will work perfect but the motor vi will have problem in reading the measured voltage in AI during this the motor will keep on running without stopping.
    so i think now the problem is in AI (2. and 3.) readings they are interfering on each other but i am not discovering where is my problem...
    Q: does the AI's seems well build or i can do it in an another way so to get over the interfering?

  • Another "An error occurred when attempting to change modules" error

    Hello all:
    After using Adobe Photoshop Lightroom on Mac OSX trouble free for the past 6 months, I opened up Lightroom today and received the following error: "An error occurred when attempting to change modules." I had not made any changes in between when it worked normally and when the error started to occur. I beleive the last thing I did before this error occurred was to go into the Print Module.
    Other information--I keep all my RAW .NEF files on an external Firewire (800) 750 GB drive. This is on Mac OS X 10.5 running Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 1.3 and also with 1.4.1. I'm running an iMac 20" with dual-core 2.2 Ghz Intel processors and 4 GB of RAM. I have around 25k images total.
    When I noticed this problem, I was on Lightroom 1.3. I immediately upgraded to 1.4.1, which did not solve the problem. I have also tried many suggestions in the forums including uninstalling the application and removing the .plist file.
    I thought I had come up with a solution by creating a new catalog, then importing the former into it. While this seems to work immediately after the import process, as soon as I close it, the problem manifests itself again.
    More details that may or (likely) may not help:
    - Going to the Develop and Print Modules gives me no problems. However, when I click on Library, Slideshow, or Web, I see the error.
    - I upgraded my Mac to the latest patch level after observing this error to no avail.
    So it looks like my choices are to create a new file and reimport every single time, or lose all of the work I've done for the past 6 months on thousands of images.
    Can anyone please help???? I promise to post the solution when we fix this darn thing so others may benefit. I'd be happy to run through any troubleshooting that y'all would suggest outside of switching to a Canon.
    Thanks!!!!
    Matt

    I'd first check for the existence of a file ending in .lock, which should be present when LR is in use, but if it exists when LR is quit, it can cause problems, and should be deleted.

  • I have Lightroom 5 installed on my MacBook Air but when I try to open the program I receive the message "An error occurred when attempting to change modules".  I uninstalled, emptied trash and re-installed but I continue to get the same message.

    I have Lightroom 5 installed on my iMac which I downloaded (uploaded?) to my MacBook Air (via wi-fi) but unlike the iMac, I'm unable to use the program on the MacBook Air.  When I open the program on the iMac and click 'file', (as people using the program would know) there are 21 options - import pics, export, etc, etc - however, in the version on the MacBook Air, opening 'file' gives me four options - New Catalogue, Open Catalogue, Page Setup and Printer - and with that comes the pop-up message "An error occurred when attempting to change modules".  Any ideas please?

    A forum thread from 3 years ago talking about LR 1.x which had this problem seems to need permissions fixed or new folders created with the corrected permissions.  You might try doing a repair permissions for your user and/or run LR as an administrator user.  I am a PC person so cannot tell you exactly how to do that.

  • I get an error while changing modules pop up when opening Lr. There is no import button to use and if I try to load the default catalog I get the error message again essentially making Lr completely unusable for me! please help

    When launching Lr i get the initial screen to come up followed by an "error while changing modules" pop up. I have uninstalled and re-downloaded, followed all the suggested trouble shooting fixes and still nothing. When the app starts it has the basic info boxes but without any options in them (i.e. no import button or any buttons at all for that matter).All my other creative cloud apps seem to be working fine but Lr won't. Please help

    Ah, see, you said you had done it differently before.
    > and I tried to add a toolbox button by navigating to AcroPDF.dll.
    You'll need to reinstall Reader if the libraries aren't registered. You can't register them manually.
    Perhaps if you posted some of your code (where it creates the objects, etc.) we might be able to give you some more advice. You're sure you aren't trying to use anything outside of the AxAcroPDFLib.AxAcroPDF class?

  • Lightroom 4: An error occurred when attempting to change modules.

    I downloaded Lightroom 4 a few days ago and installed it on my MacBook Pro. Everything worked great. I thought it would overwrite Lightroom 3, but it didn't. So Lightroom 3 is still installed, but I haven't opened it since I installed Lightroom 4.
    I downloaded Lightroom 4.3 this morning and installed it on the same MacBook Pro.  Using my MacBook Pro and a second monitor, I opened Lightroom 4.3 and worked on some photos. Everything worked great.
    Then I began watching a slideshow in the Lightroom 4.3 slideshow module on the second monitor with my MacBook Pro in the library module. During the slideshow I clicked on the slideshow module on my MacBook Pro and got this error message:
    An error occurred when attempting to change modules.
    Now I can’t get into the slideshow module. I just get the error message.
    I moved the preferences file to the trash and reopened Lightroom 4 but lost color labels, so I put it back in the preferences folder.
    Thanks for your help

    I called Adobe and let them fiddle online with Lightroom on my MacBook Pro. The Adobe tech claims I have a corrupt permissions file. He told me to contact Apple and have them rebuild my permissions file.
    When I contacted Apple, the tech said to startup my MackBook Pro with the option key held down until the first screen appears. Then click on: Recovery HD, arrow, Language, Disk Utility, Macintosh HD, Repair Disk Permissions.
    I did this three times, but some permissions were not repaired. Another Apple tech then suggested I bring my MackBook Pro to a Macintosh authorized repair shop, and have them repair my permissions file. I asked if I can buy Norton Utilities or a similar program and do it myself. The Apple tech said yes, but an authorized repair person will know which permissions to repair and which ones not to touch.
    Unless someone on this forum can tell me how to do this repair myself, I’ll get it repaired next week. And, I’ll post the results as soon as I can.

  • An error occurred when attempting to change modules Lightroom 5 CC

    I've seen other users pose this question but haven't seen any solutions that work for me.  I get the error: "An error occurred when attempting to change modules" when I open up Lightroom 5 on one user, but on another user it opens up fine.  I've tried moving and trashing preferences, uninstalling and reinstalling the program.  It's the same whether I open an existing catalog or try to open Lightroom while creating a new project.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  This occured after updating to Mavericks on a 2011 iMac.  All other Creative Cloud apps seem to have installed just fine.

    Hi 99jon,
    Many thanks for that. Had been going through this list yesterday and now again today:
    Ref  Solution 1: Lightroom is at its latest update
    Ref  Solution 2: It's interesting how I cannot find the Preferences file anywhere on my mac. (new mac pro, OS 10/9.2) . . .
    Ref  Solution 3: Lightroom doesn't allow me to do anything after the error message appears
    Ref  Solution 4: don't have any Nik Software plug-ins
    Ref  Solution 5: checked permissions and changed all to "Read & Write" - makes no difference
    Ref  Solution 6: I don't have a different user account on my mac.
    Not sure what else to do.

  • An error occurred when attempting to change modules.

    Loaded LR on my iMac, tried to copy & use a catalogue from W7 P/C. Now get "An error occurred when attempting to change modules."  when opening LR. Tried a variety of on-line suggestions, HELP. NB too much hassle with all the other apps to start a new user with such as Adobe and Microsoft.

    Hi, I¹ve been through it again to ensure I¹ve not forgot things. Completely
    removed Lightroom and all files I can find, etc and reloaded. Some tedious
    result. Step 6 is too time consuming at the moment for me, too many things
    on the go since I¹m about to go on holiday and on return I shall need
    Lightroom on this iMac. Any clues? This iMac had Mavericks from new,
    uploaded to Yosemite and then loaded Photoshop CC, Lightroom etc and get
    this damned problem.
    Reading around the web I¹m not the only one with this issue, to suggest a
    new user a/c is a soft option without resolving the issue.
    I hope an expert from Adobe can resolve this,

    I have followed all the troubling shooting steps in the link below, not one of them makes anything different. Except I tried the last one.

    Obviously this means its going to be an issue with a support file in the one user account but what one?
    I also can't un install lightroom either, when I go to the creative cloud plug in on my menu bar the uninstall says its unavailable but the others are fine.
    Any ideas?

    I just found the answer for me.
    I did step 5 on this support article:

    It is to repair the permissions on the hidden Library folders.
