Can I use USB 6008 with LabVIEW 6.1 RT?

Hi there,
I've been using LabVIEW 6.1 RT for my applications and so far I haven't felt the need to upgrade.
However, I decided to try the USB 6008 and I'm learning the hard way that this device will only work with NI-DAQmx and apparently not with the latest NI-DAQ 7.4.2 (legacy)  In fact, I can't see the device in MAX 4.1
Is there any way I can use the USB 6008 with my 6.1 RT version of LabVIEW ?  or should I send the thing back to NI ?
I will appreciate your guidance on this issue.
Thanks a lot,
at

Hi at -
Allisso is right.  There is no way to use the USB-6008 with LV 6.1, because neither of its drivers (DAQmx and DAQmxBase) support that version of LV.  You'll have to either upgrade to a current version of LV or work with another device.  I recommend contacting your sales rep at NI for help.

  • How can I use USB interface in Labview?

    Hi.
    Does labview allow to USB interface?
    I have been seen allowing GPIB and RS232.
    I'm beginer at Labview and wanna use USB interface for my target system and pc.
    I wanna know how to labview interfaces from target system to pc.
    And if Labview doesn't provide USB interface module, how can I use USB?
    Is using a USB at Labview hard to beginer?
    Plz, answer to my quetion.
    sorry, my English is very poor.
    thx for reading my article.

    You can access devices connected to the USB port, but not in the same way as you would a GPIB or RS232 device. There are no USB drivers like there is VISA for GPIB or serial. Rather devices that plug into the USB appear to the systen as some sort of standard resource like a printer, disk drive or IO board. LabVIEW then interacts with these devices as it would any other device of the same type.Look at it this way, if you have a USB daq device you will access it through MAX the same as if it were a plugin card.

  • How can I use USB camera with NI cRIO 9022, please see my strange problem.

    Hi,
            I would like to use a USB camera with NI cRIO 9022. I used the same USB camera with NI USB 6216 DAQ device and developed a VI(within a PROJECT and outside it). So, It is working fine with NI USB 6216 device when I use the Vision Assistant Express VI and gets detected in its Initialization Window.  Please see JPEG File 3 where I get NO ERROR.
            I am facing a problem when I want to use it with NI cRIO 9022. What exactly I am doing in this case is:
    1) Create a NEW PROJECT
    2) Add Targets and Devices(NI cRIO 9022)
    3) Use the Scan Interface mode
    4) Create a NEW VI under the cRIO 9022 device 
    5) Use a Timed Loop(Synchronized with Scan Engine) for continuous Data Acquisition and Sending from the Analog I/O modules.
    6) Use the Vision Assistant available through the NI Vision Acquisition 2010 Module(I get STUCK HERE! The Express VI opens the Initialization Window, but I don't see the USB camera like in JPEG File 3)
    I am facing difficulties with this HOST COMPUTER, cRIO implementation differences. On my host computer I have the software packages as shown in JPEG File 1, and on my cRIO 9022 as shown in JPEG File 2.
    Can someone guide me how to overcome this and get the USB camera detected when I am using NI cRIO 9022?
    NOTE: If this is a problem with software mismatches on HOST and NI cRIO 9022 device, please see JPEG Files 1 and 2 for available software and Host and cRIO 9022.
    Thanks.
    Amar.

    When you select My Computer, you are running the program on the PC.  In this case, the camera works because it is connected to the PC.  The scan engine doesn't work because it needs to run on the cRIO, not the PC.
    When you create the program on the cRIO, you can use the scan engine because the program is on the cRIO.  You can't use the camera because it is back on the PC, and can't be found on the cRIO.
    The project is a wonderful tool, but it may be making the programming seem too simple.  It may not be clear to you that by moving a program to a different location (PC or cRIO), it is running in an entirely different environment on a totally different machine, even though it is just a little further down in the project.  You can't easily access the hardware on one machine while running the program on the other.
    So the summary is:  The camera is attached to the PC.  The scan engine runs on the cRIO.  Never the twain shall meet.

  • How to use USB interface with LabVIEW Embedded for ARM

    Hi everybody.
    I am developing an application based on the "LabVIEW Embedded for
    ARM". Now I am doing various tests using
    the evaluation board 2300 (with NXP LPC2378), but soon I will
    dedicate to program the micro used in my project (NXP
    LPC2148).
    During the tests, I have seen that "default" LabVIEW interface allows the use
    of CAN, I2C and SPI interfaces of the micro. I want to know how can I also use the
    USB interface that is on the micros -both LPC2148 and LPC2378- (pin USB_D + / D-, USB_UP_LED,
    USB_CONNECT, VBUS).
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions

    @chueco85
    If you've created an application in LabVIEW for ARM and you build it.
    you can go to tools >> ARM Module >> Show Keil uVision
    then go to he build options.
    the hex file will be created when you do a build.
    with flash magic :http://www.flashmagictool.com/
    you can program your device.

  • Can i use Python Matplotlib with labview?

    I have a python code that i want to develop a User Interface for, i found Labview, but can i still use all the add-ons and modules when i run the script in labview? basically, i just want to develop a GUI for my code and I want to use all the modules and add-ons that I had in my code. Addons and modules such as pylab, matplotlib, numpy, scipy, and so on. Thanks!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The only integration LabVIEW has with Python is that it can call scripts and use the output from those scripts.  Here is an example of how to do that.
    https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-8995
    I would use a Python GUI Framework to control your Python application.  Here is a link to the Python Wiki on GUI Frameworks.

  • Using USB-6259 with LABVIEW 8.0

    Hello,
    I currently have Labview 8.0 and am trying to use the USB-6259 DAQ device.  When trying to install the device I am told that the driver cannot be found.  I have looked through the knowledge base, forums, and reference this document: Device Drivers
    I have downloaded DAQ-MX 8.8 has shown by the previous link, but that version of DAQ-MX does not support Labview 8.0.  I am hoping someone knows a way I can make my version of Labview and this device work together.
    Thank you in advance...

  • Can I use USB mouse with bluetooth keyboard?

    I am in need of some help. I recently got my iMac about 3 months ago and absolutely hate the magic mouse and want to use my rocketfish usb mouse along with the bluetooth mac keyboard. Is this possible or just wishful thinking on my end? I have searched everywhere for drivers and answers with programs etcetera and have came out empty. Help?

    I've done so (and even tested it on my Macbook and the USB mouse works fine) but for some reason it will not interface with my iMac - and I've tired multiple USB ports and still nothing, which is why I brought up the keyboard being bluetooth I didn't know if that somehow may interfer with the USB mouse when the bluetooth keyboard is turned on and paired. I am pretty good when it comes to computers so I know what to look for and what I am doing (for the most part) but this has me stumped.

  • Can you use event case with labview real time?

    I have a real time application I am putting together and until recentally have concentrated on getting the data acquisition working as expected.
    I am using a PXI-8183 in a 1031 chassis.
    I am now trying to add the functionality for setting up the system in the form of a GUI remote front panel that I connect to with a host laptop.  I am connecting with the host as expected and it seems to be working well in that respect.
    My problem is with event cases, operating in a while loop on the target.  They just dont seem to want to trigger when i click on a button I have set an event for.
    I have looked through the documentation and cant see any reference to issues with event cases on rt, but I feel I am missing something fundamental.  Can anyone help?
    Regards,
    Barry

  • How can I use the NI PXI-6508 with Lab View 7? what are the first steps to get started??How can I use the channels with lab view 7????

    I have a 8 slot PXI system with 2 NI PXI 6508 and 1 DMM 4070 in it. I want to get started with programming the digital I/O cards (6508)! How can I use this cards with LabView 7?what is the best way to get started, or where can I get examples showing how to use the several channels?
    Thanks!
    Philipp

    Philipp,
    The best way to get started is to decide if you want to use traditional NI-DAQ or NI-DAQmx. Recently we released NI-DAQ 7.1 which provides NI-DAQmx support for the PXI-6508. In my opinion, NI-DAQmx is more efficient and much easier to use.
    To get started with examples, simply launch LabVIEW and go to Help>>Find Examples. Then expand Hardware Input and Output>>DAQmx and select the appropriate digital group for your application. This should help get you started.
    Please repost if you need addition assistance. Good luck with your application!

  • DC motor closed loop control through labview using usb 6008

    Hello
    i am doing a project in which i want to control the speed of a DC motor (PID control) through labVIEW 2010. I am having a DC motor, a drive unit that regulates the voltage to the motor by getting analog voltage from 0 to 3.3V ( it can be used for both directions) and i also have a NI usb 6008 board. The problem is that i can't feed the usb 6008 with the digital signal from my hall effect speed sensor. Is it posible with this setup to control the motor?? I can also try to use the pulse as analog input and trasform the frequency into rpm's. Then i am thinking of generating an analog signal to feed the motor drive. If you have any further suggestion of a probably better hardware setup would be more than helpfull to me.
    Sincerely
    Jason Chaloulos

    Hello Michael
    Thanks for the reply. I came across those topics before and all of them are trying to generate a PWM signal as output i want to use just an analog signal output so timing on the output is not that important i guess. i am struggling on getting the frequency from the digital input signal that my hall effect sensor generates. Since the maximum speed of the motor is 3000 rpm and with my tooth wheel the maximum  output frequency of the sensor will be 300Hz which i see its way less than the limitation of my ni board. Is there any tutorial documentation that might help me with this one ? Thank you in advance.
    Kind regards
    Jason
