Are IVI drivers supported on RT?

I have a PXI-4060 DMM on a remote system. I have been trying to initialize the DMM but have had no success using the IVI drivers. I have set up a Logical Name that is linked to the Driver Session for the 4060, but these are setup in MAX under the host system, not the remote system. I have been unable find drivers for that DMM other than the IVI drivers and if they aren't supported on the RT system, how do I use the 4060 DMM on a remote system?
My cfg is:
IBM laptop running WinXP w/LV 7.1
PXI-1045 chassis w/LV RT and multiple components that all work fine except the DMM
I have the latest drivers/software for everything that I'm aware of (DAQ, IVI, Visa, etc)

Hi Richard,
Thank you. I ran that test and there are no Visa's running describing any of the PXI instruments. I've attached a screenshot of the results sitting on top of what I'm seeing in Max. For the Visa's, the 6 GPIB's are for HP6610xA power supplies and the serial's are for an 8-port serial card (plus the 2 on the 8187 controller), which is a PXI card (8421). When I'm trying to initialize the DMM I am running on the targeted system as shown so I should only need the descriptor after the IP address (PXI3::15), correct? As noted from the error description above, the vi is looking for a "DAQ::" descriptor and I don't see anything like that in Max.
Hope this helps with the diagnosis,
Scott

I recently up dated my OS to 10.7.3 and I get a "can't open application because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. Can this be restored? If not do you know if Epson has drivers for my scanner that work around this?

You cannot run PPC software in Lion. Go to Epson's website to see if they have an updated scanner driver. If they don't then you can try using VueScan if it supports your scanner model.

Run cleanup utility, then all ivi drivers in the measurement & automation explorer are deleted,

Hello I have the following problem,
I run the cleanup utility, then all ivi drivers in the measurement & automation explorer are deleted.
when I want to add for example a new driver session then that is not possible to click on "create new".
What is the problem?
regards samuel

Cedric,
In this case its the usb-serial adapter that is likely the cause of the issue. As mentioned in this KB it is likely that MAX doesn't know how to recognize the third-party adapter. You may want to refer to this KB that talks about making VISA calls to third-party devices as it may be useful.

Using IVI drivers in LabView 5.1.1

Hi,
We have a set of IVI drivers ( class specific and custom specific ) developed in LabWindows/CVI 7 and IVI Compliance package 2.2 version. We want to use these drivers in a new application in LabView 5.1.1 version. I want to use the class specific drivers through the IVI class drivers in LabView 5.1.1 so as to cater for the interchangeability aspect configuring the logical names in MAX. Finally I would be creating an Installer with executable and distributing it.
I want to clarify few issues.
1. Please let me know whether I need to install any other software's apart from NI DAQ, IVI compliance package 2.2 and the Installer in the User PC. Does the IVI engine, Tool set, Class drivers for LabView 5.1.1 come with the compliance package?
2. Does MAX 2.1 support IVI drivers, interchangeability through class drivers and compliance package 2.2 or should I use MAX 3.0 for best results?
3. When I import a IVI driver (developed using IVI compliance package 2.2) to LabView 5.1.1 and try to use the functions there are some problems in the functions. As per the IVI specifications 3.2, functions GetErrorInfo and ClearErroInfo are changed to GetError and ClearError. But it shows error in the functions at those points and we have to go to IVI Error Converter.vi and change the configuration of the library node and direct it to the GetError function. Do we have an alternative to avoid this process?
It would be of great help if somebody can clear these issues.
Thanks & Regards,
Siddu

1. The IVI Compliance Package (ICP) 2.2 installs the IVI Engine and Class Driver support for LabVIEW 7.0 and 7.1. It does not install Class Drivers for LabVIEW 5.1.
2. ICP 2.2 requires MAX 3.0 to get the IVI interchangeability provider in MAX.
3. LabVIEW 5.1 was released before the official IVI specifications 3.2 were approved. Prior to 3.2, the function names were GetErrorInfo and ClearErrorInfo. Those changed to GetError and ClearError. The LabVIEW wrapper generation tool that shipped with LabVIEW 5.1 is not aware of these changes. Therefore, my suggestion is to upgrade to a later version of LabVIEW so that you will have support for the current IVI specifications and class drivers.

Agilent 34980A simulation using IVI-drivers in Teststand?

Hello! I am unable to simulate 34980A in TestStand and here are some results based on testing:
Agilent 34980A is linked to logical name SampleDmm. Simulate With: Specific Driver.
IviStepTypes.seq used with only DMM and Switch steps.
Using IviDMM IVI-C causes runtime-error in Ivi DMM Configure Single Point: Component Works IVI Control Error: The IVI Configure operation failed for logical name 'SampleDmm'. Details: Extension capability not supported by instrument driver. (Base)
Using IviDMM IVI-COM causes runtime-error in Ivi DMM Read Single Point: Component Works IVI Control Error: The IVI Read operation failed for logical name 'SampleDmm'. Details: Attribute ID not recognized. [IVI Error Code: BFFA000C] Source: TSIviStepTypes
Skipping Ivi DMM SFP -step removes that error but next one waits in Ivi DMM Configure Multi Point: Component Works IVI Control Error: The IVI Configure operation failed for logical name 'SampleDmm'. Details: Attribute or property not supported. [IVI Error Code: BFFA0012] Source: TSIviStepTypes
Skipping multi point steps helps until Ivi Switch Connect where another error hits: Component Works IVI Control Error: The Connect operation failed for logical name 'SampleDmm'. Details: No path was found between the two channels. [IVI Error Code: BFFA2011] Source: TSIviStepTypes
I find some similarities in forum post that involves HP 34401A and IVI .
According to IVI-C Class Driver Support for IVI-COM Specific Drivers the fault might be in 64 bit system (the note in the end). Is this the case? I can't use IVI-COM-drivers in 64bit system?
Example's default DMM Hewlett-Packard 34401A Digital Multimeter simulation works perfectly in unmodified example(it has IVI-C). It even shows simulated numbers in the SFP which is zero all the time with Agilent.
Has anyone succeeded to simulate 34980A properly in TestStand? Any knowledge about how to solve this thing? Any help is welcome. Thank you.
Setup:
-Teststand 5.1
-Windows 7 64bit
-IVI shared components 2.2.1
-Visa shared components 1.5 64bit
-Agilent IO libraries suite 16.3 Update 1
-Agilent 34980A IVI Driver 1.5.3
-MAX/Agilent 34980A published APIs:
-IviDmm 4.1 IVI-COM (IVI-C tried with less success)
-IviSwtch 4.0 IVI-C & IVI-COM

Some IVI drivers are designed to work in simulation mode, that is, the virtual instrument can be defined in MAX but no physical instrument is necessary to use the "instrument". If you turn off the simulate checkbox on the validate dialog box, TestStand will create the instrument session without simulation and the driver will attempt to talk to a physical instrument. If no physical instrument definition is available or if the address defined for that virtual instrument is incorrect, the above error can occur.

Where are printer drivers stored in OS 10.8?

I am trying to set up a Epson Stylus Photo R3000 as a new printer on OS 10.8. The printer setup locates the printer and automatically selects Epson Stylus R3000 with the notation "The selected printer software is available from Apple. Click Add to download and add this printer." However, clicking on Add leads eventually to an error message: "Can't install the software for the EPSON Epson Stylus Photo R3000 because it is not currently available fromthe Software Update server." This result blocks me from setting up the printer.
I know the driver is part of the Epson driver software package that is installed with OS 10.8. I would like to select it manually. My question is where are printer drivers stored? How do I select a driver?
Thanks in advance!

While a bit of a stretch, you can download the entire Epson printer package from Apple and install it. This will include all drivers for all Epson devices as opposed to the one just for your system. The package is 1GB in size, but will include everything supported.
The package can be downloaded here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398
This following knowledgebase article says your printer is definitely supported, so the driver should be in that package: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#epson

Where are the drivers for HP LaserJet 5P for Windows 8.1 (64bit)?

Had been using HP LaserJet 5p printer with HP LaserJet 5p printer driver, but had printer disconnect for a few months due to not have black toner. Now I want to use the printer and my control panel does not show HP Laser 5p printer for my tablet but shows it for my laptop. I can not find the driver on the HP support list and the support list does not recognize HP LaserJet 5p.

Where Are the Drivers? Envy 15t-J100 Touchsmart

If I do a search for drivers for my laptop it shows nothing. HP ENVY TouchSmart 15t-j100 Quad Edition Is this normal? Does HP sometimes take down divers for a computer? About the only thing I can think of why they don't have anything up is because of Windows 8.1??

It certainly doesn't look as if HP follows thru because there are still no drivers posted as of July 2015. I too am looking for the drivers to my laptop. Are they trying to force me to pay for support?Paul_Tikkanen wrote:

Have an Epson workforce 600 worked fine until new router and Lion installed. Now when I try and scan with the all in one I get a "POWER PC APPLICATIONS ARE NO LONGER SUPPORTED" and my IMAC does not recognize that the Epson is a multi function printer.

Installed a new router. Installed Lion. Have an Epson Workforce 600 multi function printer. Two problems.
1. I cannot get Lion to recognize that the Epson is a multi function printer. There is no scan option on the "print/Scan" popup window.
2. When I try and use the epson scan utility I get: POWER PC APPLICATIONS ARE NOT LONGER SUPPORTED.
I have tried EPSON support with no real luck as they say it is Apple upgrades that are the problem.
Apple support was quite rude..said it was not their problem and that I should call epson. Told the I did but it made no difference just got the same reply.
Have no idea what to do.....seems I cannot find out which multi-function printers Lion supports.

Not to give you another run around, but you need new printer drivers from Epson for your printer so it works in Lion.
Now it could be that they are working on it, or that they could have decided not to provide new drivers in order for you to force upgrade.
The only thing a user can do is decide very carefully BEFORE upgrading to a newer Apple operating system, make sure that all their current hardware and software works and make a decision for themselves.
Since you upgraded to Lion, you can go back to Snow Leopard and your PPC software will work.
Do you need instructions?

Trying to install printer - get the message "You can't open the application "OSX installer" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."

I am trying to install print controller and printer -but get this error message when trying to use the installer:
You can’t open the application “OSX installer” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
I also have a macbook pro running the same version OS and it installed fine there - I can't find the difference; but, NEED to print from my IMac.
Any help and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!

I'm guessing you've tried Fiery's website for updated drivers? I wonder whether Lion drivers would work? Anything of use here:

My multimeters don't function properly with ivi drivers

I have 4 Keithley MM in my setup. I am using the ke2000.dll ivi drivers for all my meters. I have also labeled each meter MM1..MM4, however when I make a call using MM1, MM3 is the one being control? How can I configure MAX properly to avoid this or is it unavoidable?

Did you download the driver from the National Instruments web site, or did you get it from Keithley?
Which GPIB board do you have?
If you are using NI IVI driver or board, you should post this question to the GPIB forum to find out how to configure the driver in MAX.

TS3938 I can't print because PowerPC applications are no longer supported?

What has happened to my printer connection? I received the "you can't open the application 7100 Series Utility Launcher because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. I need help.

Your printer appears as compatible with OS X Lion and Mountain Lion, so there are newer drivers for your printer.
Make sure that your printer is turned on. Then, open System Preferences > Print & Fax, and press the + button to add the printer. Then, just choose your printer and it will be added. Do you see your printer?
Also, you can try installing the Lexmark drivers before doing that > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1397

Updating IVI Drivers

I've got a question re: updating the IVI drivers in NISE.
We are using a 3rd party switch card, and the IVI drivers are updated from time to time. As we have worked with this particular vendor to help test out their IVI drivers, we have received new "drops" of their IVI drivers over the past couple of months as bugs are found.
On more than one occasion, I had entered a sizeable amount of information into NISE (alias names for IVI Channels, hard-wires, etc.) for our system, and when the new IVI drivers were installed from our vendor, I found that I had to re-enter my alias information, etc. because the IVI drivers had changed drastically.
Up to this time, I have not modified the virtual names in the Driver Sessions to have any custom info, I have only entered it into the Virtual Device as "alias" names, etc. Is there any way to "protect" my custom information from having to be re-entered when significant updates are received from our IVI vendor?
Harv...

Harv,
When a NISE Virtual device is created it is linked to a logical name that points to a driver session that points to an IVI specific driver. If anything changes on the specific driver level the NISE virtual device will not work. When you enter virtual names in the driver session, NISE will be able to see these virtual names at creation of the virtual device only. If virtual names are entered after the creation of the virtual device, the virtual names will not appear in NISE, because the link was already established.
I understand you concern but unfortunately if the ivi specific driver changes its channel names, an already created NISE virtual device will not be able to show these changes.

Ok so I have OS X Lion now and this is what I get: "You can't open the application Lexmark All In One Center because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."

look for the latest drivers on the maker's website.
check it in your list. this is a lexmark issue not a lion issue.
