Can I convert a Labview 6.0 VI to a Labview 5.1 VI?

I have some Labview 6.0 lib files, I wish to convert them to Labview 5.1 files. How can I do that?

Go to "Save with Options" and you will see a selection for "Save for previous". This will save the VIs for 5.0 and later.
Be careful, if you have any elements that aren't available in 5.x, you may create some problems.

How can I convert a bitmap image into an array in LabVIEW 6.0.2, then to a spreadsheet for further analysis without NI-IMAQ or Vision?

I do not have NI-IMAQ or NI Vision.
I acquired the image using a picolo board then just saved it as a bitmap file.

You want to convert it to an array of what? Of numbers? Of LabVIEW colors?
The "Read BMP File.vi" VI outputs a 1-D array of the pixels, but I suspect it is not exactly in the format that you need. I am NOT sure, but I think that each group of 3 elements of that 1-D array (which is inside the cluster "image data" that the VI outputs) represents the red, green and blue levels of a single pixel (but it may be hue, saturation and lum.). Also, since it is a 1-D array, you would have to divide it by the width (which is also included in the "image data" cluster) to get some sort of 2-D array of data.
You can find the "Read BMP File.vi" VI in the functions palete> "Graphics & sound">"Graphics Formats".

How can I convert borland pascal 6-byte real value to labview type

while attempting to convert a 6-byte borland pascal real number to a LabVIEW data type, I get strange results. Does anyone have previous experience with this?

Your problem may be in how the two different environments store the number. I'm not sure how 6-byte pascal number is stored - here is some info on how doubles are stored in LabVIEW.

How can I convert a Database Handle from TestStand to LabVIEW?

I want to use a Database Handle (already created in TestStand by an Open Database step) in a LabVIEW-VI (called from TestStand) to connect it with the "Connection Reference" input of the "Easy SQL.vi"? If I use a directly connection via the "TestStand - Get Property Value (Number).vi" I get back the error message 4101 in LabVIEW. How can I convert the Database Handle?

The TestStand database step types use the CVI SQL Toolkit to talk to databases. The handle that you are referencing is an internal memory location and not a actual handle that you can directly use. Currently as implemented the handle that is stored in a numeric TestStand property for the connection and the SQL statement are the handle values returned from the CVI SQL Toolkit. So for the connection handle, you could call the CVI SQL Toolkit function
DBGetConnectionAttribute (
int Connection_Handle,
tDBConnectionAttr Attribute,
void *Value);
and get the CVI CAObjHandle reference. With this you could then call the CVI ActiveX function
CA_GetInterfaceFromObjHandle(
CAObjHandle Object_Handle,
const IID *Interface_Id,
int Force_AddRef,
void *Inte
rface_Ptr,
int *Did_AddRef);
to get the actual ActiveX interface reference. This would have to be converted into a LabVIEW reference.
You may want to consider just using LabVIEW to open a new parallel reference only using the toolkit.

Can I convert 3D image to an array of pixels in LabVIEW?

Hi all;
I am still new with labview. I has 1 question, can I convert 3D image to an array of pixels using labview?
Most of the examples I found they only convert 2D image. Hope anyone can give me some hint.
Thank You

look at this thread.
It has links to other threads where the 3D graphs were used.
You should also search for "gif reader" to find threads where images are read from gif files.

How can I convert a vi of 7.0 to 6.0/6.02 without using LabVIEW 7.0?

I have to work with some vi of LabVIEW 7.0, however i only got LabVIEW 6.02. How can I convert those vi files to 6.02?

You not only would need 7.0, but you would also need 6.1 as well. Version 7 can only save to 6.1 and version 6.1 can only save to 6.0. Even if you downloaded the 7.0 evaluation copy, I don't know if the 6.1 evaluation is still available for download. Your best chance is to post the VIs and hope that someone with both versions can do the conversion for you. You should also be aware that there are numerous differences between 7.0 and 6.0 and that a conversion might not even be possible.

Can I convert a Lookout application into a labview application?

We here are seriously thinkig to migrate to Labview. There is a complex application done with Lookout 6.0 that we want to convert to a labview application. Having the proper Labview, is there a way of compiling it, open and save, or convert the Lookout application into a Laview application?
Excuse my ignorance in this matter.
Best regrads.
Rudy
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Rudy,
First of all I hope you first question regarding lookout is solved. If so then mark my answer as solution.
For the next time, if you have other questions, which are not related to the one you started the thread of, then open a new thread!
And no, National Instruments don't has drivers for Non-NI Products, so LabVIEW has no driver for your motion card. Anyhow National Instruments has it's own Motion Hardware and Software (ni.com/motion).
And for LabVIEW and Linux just go to ni.com/linux, and you will find supported hardware/software and the linux derivates it works on.

How can I convert output data (string?) from GPIB-read to an 1D array?

Hello all,
I am reading a displayed waveform from my Tektronix Oscilloscope (TDS3032) via the GPIB Read VI. The format of the waveform data is: positive integer data-point representation with the most significant byte transferred first (2 bytes per data point).
The output data of GPIB-Read looks like a string(?) where the integer numbers and a sign like the euro-currency sign are seperated by spaces e.g. #5200004C3 4 4 4 4 3C3C3........ (C represents the euro-currency sign).
How can I convert this waveform data into a 1D/2D array of real double floatingpoint numbers (DBL) so I can handle the waveform data for data-analysis?
It would be very nice if someone know the solution for this.

Hi,
First of all, I'm assuming you are using LabVIEW.
The first you need to do is parse the string returned by the instrument. In this case you need to search for the known symbols in the string (like the euro sign) and chop the string to get the numeric strings. Here are some examples on parsing from www.ni.com:
Keyword Search: parsing
Once you parse the numeric strings you can use the "String/number conversion VIs" in the String pallette.
Hope this helps.

Can i convert a wav file to a digital signal without using DAQ?

i tried the coversion of a sine wave to digital signal, ofcourse it doesnt work on converting wav file to a digital signal. i am also new in labview. i tried to explore it but there are many functions that i can't use.
so my these are my questions.
1) is a .wav file is an analog signal?
2) can i convert it without using any DAQ device?
tnx guys! i'll post the programs that uses quantization of a simple sine wave. i tried it to .wav file but it didnt work.

.WAV is a digital "signal". It uses Pulse Code Modulation to encode analog signal. You don't need a DAQ device to "convert" it to analog. Any computer with a sound card, and media player can "convert" a .wav file to the analog audio signal it represents

How can I convert a wave file to a jpeg file (picture) is it possible???

Hello:
How can I convert a wave file to a jpeg file (picture) is it possible???

zuckini;
I am pretty sure you know, but just to be completely sure: a wave is (usually) sound signal and a jpeg file is an image.
If you mean how to display the wave signal in a graph and then save the graph as a jpeg file, then just drop a graph indicator in the control panel, wire the signal. Check any of the example shipped with LabVIEW on how to do this. To get the image, drop a graph indicator's invoke node in the block and select "Get Image". Check this page for detailed information.
If you have something else in mind, please reply to this message with additional information about the wave signal, the image, etc.

How can I convert an InputStream to a FileInputStream ???

How can I convert an InputStream to a FileInputStream ???

Thanks for you reply, however, I am still stuck.
I am trying to convert my application (which runs smoothly) to a signed applet. The following is the original (application) code:
private void loadConfig() {
String fileName = "resources/groupconfig";
File name = new File(fileName);
if(name.isFile()) {
try {
     ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(new FileInputStream(fileName));
     pAndGConfig = (PAGroupsConfig)in.readObject();
     in.close();
     return;
} catch(ClassNotFoundException e) {
     System.err.println("++ERROR: "+e);
} catch(IOException e) {
     System.err.println("++ERROR: "+e);
System.out.println("Can't find file: " + fileName);
Because all code and resources now reside in a Jar file (for the signed applet), I must use the following line to access the resources:
InputStream is = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream(fileName);
I then need to convert the 'InputStream' to 'ObjectInputStream' or 'FileInputStream' so that I can work with it.
I would be very grateful if you could help shed some light on the matter - Cobram

How can I convert from color balance in FCE to color balance in FCPX?

Let me start off by saying that I've been having an issue with a project in Final Cut Express - a project I'd put a lot of time into and thought I was finished with. Before continuing on, I encourage you to take a look at my other thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18702933?ac_cid=op123456#18702933
Realizing that there may be no one who can walk me through fixing my project as is, I decided to download a trial version of Final Cut Pro X and see if I could replicate my project there and have more success (after all, it was only a matter of time before I switched anyway).
So, in my original project in FCE, I keyed a lot of frames with different color balances. I downloaded the Ripple Training color balance effect to do just that, but the sliders are set up differently. In FCE, they range from -1 to 1. In FCPX, they range from 0 to 1. I'm wondering how I can conveniently convert the values from FCE to FCPX. Being terrible at math has made this much harder.
Just by drawing a diagram, like the following, I can figure out the basics:
FCE
[-1]-----[-.5]-----[0]-----[.5]-----[1]
is equal to:
FCPX
[0]-----[.25]-----[.5]-----[.75]-----[1]
Since I have very specific numbers, not all of which can be easily converted using a basic diagram like the one above, I definitely need some help here. For example, one of the values in FCE is .77. What would that be equal to in FCPX? It's probably something simple, but like I said, I'm stupid when it comes to math.
Thanks to anyone who can provide me with some help here, although I still hope that I'll end up having no reason to redo everything in FCPX.

Well, the "math answer" is .885…but I'm afraid that's not likely to be of much help. FCPX and FCE have absolutely nothing in common, including filters land color correction. So even if you sent the time comverting all your numeric values, I'm guessing you'll wind up with a mess and be very frustrated with all the time wasted in the workaround.
If I read your original FCE thread correctly, I if it were my project., I'd do a test on a short clip in X to see whether yoi can the effects and quality you expect. If you can, great. Build you project from scratch and learn a new NLE at the same time.
Good luck.
