Chnaging input in a waveform graph from front panel in labview

Hi !
I am working with temperature sensors; I have several sensors to read simultaneously.
I want to plot information from different sensors in different plots and have the option to change/select the sensors in the a graph from front panel. For example, I have 8 sensors(please see the attachments_ front panel), A,B,C,D,E,F,G and M. Some time it could be possible that user want A,B,C in Tumor Graph or sometimes only A and B. That means the identity and the number of sensors could be changed in different times.
Now I connect only two sensors per graph (ref: block diagram) but the number and the sensors to be plotted in a certain graph can be changed, so How can I implement it ?
Any help or idea will be appreciated.
Best Regards,
Hasan Masud

Hi hasanma,
Well, you could expend the build array and add more inputs to it as shown below:
And individually select which sensor data the user wants to view as shown below:

It sounds like the battery might have gone bad, and is swelling and causing the symptoms you describe. Do not attempt to use the phone, but take it to Apple for evaluation.

Midi in from front panel stopped working (x-fi platinum)

8midi in from front panel stopped working (x-fi platinum)" Not sure if I burned the connector or if something is wrong with the driver. My midikeyboard can't be used with sb x-fi platinum anymore.
I borrowed terratec soundcard from big brother a while and used my midikeybaord in with that and output with x-fi card. but now he's taken the terratec back.
and I'd like to really know what's wrong witht he midi in.
Does anyone know what might be the problem?
I have connected normal midi cable -> normalmidi to tiny x-fi port convertor -> front panel
This used to work a bunch of months ago.
i'm using winxp latest updates. i'm trying out reaper. I've got asio4all installed but i usually use directsound when I'm composing music.
tahnks for any help

i have the exact same problem with vista!!!no sound from the front panel of x-fi platinum!i don't know what to do!

Remote front panel with labview 8.6 executable

I am trying to create a remote front panel of my application, built in an executable using Labview 8.6. I want to run that application on a target machine (not the one used for developing the project) and view and control the front panel of the VI from a web browser on another computer.
I have followed these steps:
How can I use remote front panels with Labview Executables?
But when I finally open the web browser and navigate to the URL I obtain that the page cannot be found.
I have my Labview project created and I have built a web page using Web publishing tool. I have saved it in my Labview 8.6/www directory and added it to the project. I have built my executable including HTML file and copied all the obtained folders to the target PC.
Then, I have modified the .ini file like in the step 7, but when I arrive to the step 8 I don't know what to do. Which niwebserver.conf should I modify? The one localized at Labview 8.6 directory of the target machine? Or the one that is created in the directory where I have copied the executable when I run the executable?
In the DocumentRoot tag I have to replace the default Labview/www with the location of my HTML file. Should I use quotation marks or no?
Have you got any ideas of what is happening?
Thanks!

Ok, but when I create the executable, in the folder where the application.exe and .ini are there isn't a file called niwebserver.conf. When I run the application a file with this name appear in the directory (the one I include), but it hasn't the section Directives that apply to the default server as in the manual.
What I have done is to copy the niwebserver.conf file ubicated in the Labview 8.6 of the target machine in the same directory of the executable but it doesn´t work...

How to change the properties of waveform graph from time domain to frequency domain?

Actually, I want my output waveform graph give me the answer in x-component in frequency instead of time after the FFT. My output waveform graph gives the x-components in time instead of frequency. How to change the properties of the waveform graph?

You are responding to a very old (8 years) thread, be aware that that might not be the best option.
However, you want to decrease the frequency? or increase?
What is the code you are running?

How to change the waveform-type inside of the waveform graph from int to double?

Hello,
attached you find a vi with two waveform-graphs.
When i rightclick them and select "create constant" then it creates the constant.
The difference between the two graphs is, that one creates a double-array inside the constant and the other graph creates an int-array inside
The question is: Where can i change inside of the int-graph that it also creates a double-array in the constant?
(Problem is that all double-waveforms send into this graph are changed to int and rounded in the display)
Thanks for the help

The datatype of a chart or graph is determined by the last thing you wired to it. By default, they are simple doubles or arrays of doubles. My guess is that you first wired a waveform with an integer data type to the graph. It should switch automatically to a double waveform graph if you wire a waveform which contains double data to it. If it does not, that is probably a bug. If you have a VI in this state, please post it and I will report it to R&D.
Thanks!

Why does vi execute in HIGHLIGHT mode only? Does not RUN from front panel

This is extraordinarily puzzling to me...
The attached vi sends a serial command to a motor controller. Command has the form /1V5500P0R, where the /1 means "motor 1", 5500 is the velocity, and the P0 means "rotate positive direction" and R means RUN (do the command).
When I run the VI from the front panel, the motor does not respond. The correct command string appears in the String indicator box, but, the motor does not turn on. HOWEVER, when I use either HIGHLIGHT EXECUTION, or I SINGLE STEP through the block diagram, the vi works perfectly. It issues the correct command the motor runs properly after stepping over VISA WRITE to VISA CLOSE... The VI accepts any velocity command I want to put in the NUMERIC control on the front panel.
I tried putting the code into a WHILE loop to see if that made any difference...and it does not.
What is happening?
Thanks,
Dave

Simple VISA speed controller forum nov 20.vi ‏12 KB

Hello Angelica,
Your suggestion about use of the WAIT VISA function works, however, I am reluctant to use it because I do not want to slow down the application. The application accepts two inputs and creates the one serial output, and the faster it does this, the better for my application.
I had no problem running these VI's on my old PC in Labview 2011. The new PC requires this WAIT function. There is software provided by the hardware manufacturer to manually send the SERIAL commands, and it works fine on both PCs.
New PC is Intel(R) core(TM) i3-2230 CPU @ 2.2GHz, 3G RAM 64 bit processor and Labview 2012
Old PC is Intel (R) Pentium (R) M Processor 1.73GHz, .99G RAM, 32 bit processor and Labview 2011
Understand that in the attached VI, only a single serial command is being sent, so, is it possible that backlogging or overloading of the device can occur from a single serial command? This does not happen with the manufacturer's interface. The attached vi works with the 10ms wait time. This VI is one of a family of VI's that I wrote and operated in Labview 2011 on the old PC, and all of the worked fine without the WAIT function. Now, none of them will run in either Labview 2011 or Labview 2012 without the WAIT in the VISA as shown in the attached VI.
Do you really think that the command is being sent too quickly? The device communicates over the RS485 bus at 9600 baud, 1 Stop bit, No Parity, No flow control. How can a single string be sent too quickly?
Thank you,
David

Fix position of 3D graph in front panel

Hi I haev used 3D graphs in my VI but whenever I open my vi I see that the position of 3D graph has changed in my Front Panel and it takes a lot of time to rearange everything again. It also change the position of the other things like pics or Tab boxes. Is it something related to the resolution of the screen? and how can I fix it to not change because I want to use my laptop for a presentation and I would like to avoid this mess during demostrating my vi
Many thanks

Hi,
I don't know if it would help, but you can lock the psoition of front panel objects. Select the object and then select Reorder >> Lock from the toolbar:

How to data log graphs using front panel data logging?

Hello I have a VI that collects data from DAQmx thermocouple readings and graphs the temperature vs time using a while loop to collect data and graph. I have 9 control operators that define the correction factor of the thermocouples.
I want to create a datalogging using the option under Operations>Data Logging
When I retrieve the data the only information that is present are the control operators correction factors that I defined. The graphed data that was created is not retrieved.
Is there a solution to show the graphed data plots that were created on the front panel? They remain unchanged from the last run of the VI or blank if I open the VI without having ran the program.
Thank you.

This is expected for the Data Logging in LabVIEW. If you want to record the signla data, use the Write to Measurement File Express VI. Here's a link with a walk-through:
http://www.ni.com/academic/students/learn-daq/data-logging/
The Data Logging from the Operate Menu is for recording front panel control(s), as you have observed.

HP OFFICEJET 6500 709A WILL NOT SCAN FROM FRONT PANEL ON MACHINE os windows 7 what must be done?

I have an oj 6500 709a all in one that will not scan when I press the scan button on machine.I have doown loaded all the updates and drivers.what must be done ?

Hi z5090joe,
Thanks for the response!
We can check a few other things, since the scan communication itself seems to be working okay, just not from the front of the printer. I'd like to check the Scan Settings on the front panel with in the HP Solution Center.
Once you're in the HP Solution Center, please click on Settings along the bottom, click Scan Settings, then click Scan To... Setup.
You will then see a screen that has Available Scan Shortcuts on the left and Front Panel List (Scan To button) on the right. If there are no options on the right, please add the scan options you'd like from the left side by clicking on it and then clicking the Add button in the middle. If you add one by mistake just click on it and then click Remove. Once you've added the options click Update the Device and then OK on the next screen.
If there are options on the right side when you open it, please Remove all of the options, click Update the Device, and then go back to the Settings screen, before following the same process described above to add the options to the right side.
Once you've added the options check the front panel of the printer. If they still aren't there, please turn the printer off for 30 seconds before turning it back on (use the power button not the power cord) and try the Scan option again.
Let me know how this goes for you!

How can i edit graphs on front panel?

Hello!
My problem is the following:
I need a front panel, where i can edit the graph. It doesn't need to be very complicatted. It means, there is 5 steps. For example: It will control a thermal chamber, and it should give 25 celsius for 2 hours, then cool down until 2 hours to -40 celsius, 4 hours on -40, then back to 25 celsius until 2 hours, stay there for 2 hours, up to 105 celsius until 2 hours, 4 hours on 105 , 2 hours down to room constant, stay 2 hours there. But i need to be control the levels. The temperature levels, and the time periods. It's nessesery to control this on front panel. I've found a vi , which is reading in *.lvm files with datas x,y and then it's interpolating. But it is not setable after setting.
Please help me. Thank You very much!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you want to specify the profile graphically then you can use cursors to do it. An old example can be found here. You may find others by doing your own search (hint, hint).
Otherwise, you can simply use a multicolumn listbox to specify the indvidual profile segments, and a graph can be used to display the entered profile whenever the listbox changes.

Passing array of values from front panel to menu

I am working with a group programming a multichannel current stimulation device and we are currently having trouble setting up the run time menu. The burning question that we have is trying to figure out how to pass an array of values from the front panel to the menu that we are setting up in the block diagram, any advice?
Thank you

Take a look at this. Its just a simple menu update using a for loop. Uses whatever your values are as the item tag and item names. Remember, item tags need to be unique. This specifically goes under the sub menu of channel, which has to be created before.

Automatically turn on/off channels graph or front panel

Hello,
does anyone know if Labview is capable of selectiing what channels to view?
for instant during ablation testing. i would not like to select the last 3 channels
but during temperature response. i would like to see all channels.
is it possible or i have to manually click it on the front panel?
thank you in advance.

Use a property node to 1) set the "active plot" (the plot you want to mess with in the following properties) and then 2) set plot visibility. As long as you know which plots you want active, it is simple programming from there.

HP OfficeJet J4680 All-in-One getting Copy error message when copying from front panel.

I get this message when I try to copy from the front panel: Incorrect paper size. Load different media or change copy paper size settings. It does not matter what I am trying to copy. I have checked the paper size and media and they are set on what I want -- Letter size and plain paper. It started after I cleared a paper jam from the back of the copier. Hope someone can help me. Thanks Klb

I am also having the exact same problem. I tried resetting it back to default settings (power on, unplug power cord, hold the # and 3 buttons while plugging back up). However, this has not helped. So far the only solution I saw is to upgrade to another printer, but copying seems to be such a simple function for this problem to be so hard so solve. Unfortunately, I've seen no other answers, so upgrading may be my only option even though I have no other problems :-(

Audigy 2 ZS Platinum - can't record from front panel "mic-

I'm using an Audigy 2 ZS Platinum. I have an electric guitar plugged into the "mic-in" port on the front panel. I can hear the guitar through my speakers but I can't record from any program. I've tried using "Creative Wave Studio" and XP's "Sound Recorder" but it doesn't record.
I can record by plugging a microphone into the back mic-in port.
This is very frustrating, please help
--Dan

First is to set the Recording device to MIC2. The front panel device is considered the second microphone. Basically whatever program you use, I would assume it has to recognize this second microphone. Make sure you ahve it selected under the sound mixer (task bar Icon) "Line in 2/Mic 2" underneath "REC" on far right side. Then you can go from there.
