Communication problem with FP-2000 and Labview 7.1

I am using the FP-2000, DO-403 and TC-120 modules with Labview 7.1, being run on a host computer via an ethernet connection.  The setup has operated flawlessly for ~2 years; recently, I have noticed that while a VI is running on my PC, connection to the FP module ceases.  There is no pop-up "connection error" in my VI, and the all the power and status LEDs on the FP modules are normal.  I can still interact with the VI on the front panel while it is running, but nothing is passed to the FP module.  I have tried communicating with MAX when this occurs and receive a "no connection" message.  Is there a simple solution here, such as rebooting the FP module?  Or is it time to invest in new hardware?
Justin

I am having a very similar problem with my cFP-1804 and Labview 7.0.  I have no problem initiating communication over ethernet, and the vi will run perfectly for hours or even days.  Inevitably, however, at some point there is no longer communication with the cFP-1804.  Data is no longer being passed either to or from the cFP-1804, and MAX will show that the device is not connected.  I also will not see any pop-up error message that says the connection has been lost, either from Windows or from Labview.  The vi will just continue to run as if nothing has happened.  Turning the power to the cFP-1804 off and then on will always resolve this problem.  Since I am using the cFP-1804 primarily for data logging, however, this behavior is particularly problematic as the system will record nothing but zeroes until I discover that the communication has been severed and perform the manual power cycling.
I have been unable thus far to determine the cause of this problem.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Derrick

  • Report generation toolkit problem with office 2000 and office XP

    Hello, I am having a problem with running my vi after it is compiled with application builder. The dev machine is an XP box and the targer is windows 2000. I included _Excel Dynamic VIs.vi and _Word Dynamic VIs.vi from the office 2000 section of the install cd (for the report toolkit) in the compile but did not include those files for XP. When I run the application on the target machine (2000), the reporting functions call Excel just fine and the program does not come up with any errors. The program however, is not loading the approprate template and inserting the approprate data. Did I leave some neccessary files out of the compile? Thanks in advance!

    Hi Acer,
    The recommended procedure in your case is to install Microsoft Office 2000 on the development machine and then reinstall the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit. When the toolkit is installed, it will check for the current version of Office and install the corresponding VIs to support it. The VIs include different ActiveX calls according to the version of Office. Therefore it is not enough to change the support manually without having the correct version of Office installed first.
    However, I would recommend that you just try to run your executable on a machine that has Office 2000 installed. The difference in the ActiveX API for Office XP and 2000 is not that significant, so your application might work perfectly on an Office 2000 machine. If you try to run the executable on a machine with Office 97 installed I'm willing to bet my right arm that you will experience errors.
    Good luck Acer!

  • Problem with Vision Builder and LabView: Error -1074395995, File not found

    I have created an inspection with Vision Builder AI 2009 SP1. In it I load some pictures from the HDD and run some checks over it. It works fine. Then I have migrated it to LabView 2010, I get a message that the migration is successfull, but when I run the VI on LabView I get a fail status. I have been checking my program and I have found and error when I try to load the picture from file: Error -1074395995 occurred at IMAQ ReadImageAndVisionInfo
    Possible reason(s): IMAQ Vision:  File not found.
    But I am not sure which file it refers to. At first I thought it was the picture I wanted to load, but I have checked the path and it is correct, so maybe it refers to another thing. What puzzles me most is that it works perfectly on Vision Builder and I have changed nothing in LabView, maybe it is a problem with the migration. Any clues?

    Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about. Put a break point here and see what the path is and compare that with what Vision Builder AI is using (described where to find this in the previous post). You could find where this global is used to make debugging easier.
    Hope this helps,

  • Having problems with Camac drivers and labview

    I have a Lecroy 2249SG adc with a DSP6001 control board.  I upgraded from LabView 5.0 to LabView 6.0 and now my Sub vi's for communicating with the CAMAC do not work.  The drivers were from DSP and were for Windows NT and a previous lab member modified them to work with Windows 98.  The drivers are .dll files.  When I send a LAM to the CAMAC, I get a Q=0 and/or a X=0  back from the CAMAC - Q=0 means no response, and X=0 means command not accepted.  My previous lab member explained the modifications like this: "I remember that I somehow looked at the code and besides a lot of unintelligable symbols I saw things that looked like the expected CAMAC commands except that they had a lot of really strange extra symbols
    attached to them. I then went into LabVIEW and replaced the expected command names by these slightly messed-up versions and - surprisingly - it worked."
    The company who supplied the drivers in the past no longer sells the control board, but I am trying to contact them for original drivers - don't think I will have much luck.
    I'm attaching the driver(WINCAM32.dll) and the vi that is used to generate the calls.
    Thanks.

    I searched NI's site to see if they had a driver for you. I've never worked with this instrument so I can't offer too much in the way of communicating with it. You might want to post this to the Instrument Control Forums (GPIB, etc) to see if people there may have used this.

After that, when I restart the computer it boot up with blue screen(Sometimes, it let me boot up without any problem). I didn't install any third party software(OS only). It's weird.

  • Communication problem with printer when using Parallels

    OK, apologies if this has been asked elsewhere but I've been trawling the forum for an hour and have yet to find the exact problem that I'm having!
    First of all, I'm a recent convert to Mac (hurrah I hear you all cry), secondly, I've set up Parallels to deal with some PC left-overs, thirdly, I've tried to use my old Dell printer and realised Dell doesn't support Macs (or not my AIO 922 anyway).
    So, I thought I'd get round this by installing the drivers for the printer on the Windows partition, which all went well until I actually tried to print something... although the printer is visible and 'on-line', I get the box informing me there's a communation problem with the printer and computer.
    It's beginning to wind me up so any info/advice would be greatly appreciated

    This is either a Windows or a Parallels problem. For Parallels go to http://forum.parallels.com. For Windows go to the support forums at Microsoft.
    There is no support for either product at these Discussions.

  • Communication problem with Adobe 9.0 and HP Printer when I scan

    I'm having a problem getting a .pdf file to come up when I scan from a HP 5610 All-in-one printer. Have uninstalled and reinstalled HP software three times but when I scan and want a pdf file it won't communicate with Adobe 9.0 reader for some reason. Is there a setting in Adobe reader that's a problem?

    Subject: Problems with ListViews Drag and Drop
    I am just curious as to other people's experiences with the ListView
    widget when elements in it are set to be draggable. In particular, I am
    currently trying to design an interface that looks a lot like Windows
    Explorer where a TreeView resides on the left side of the window and a
    ListView resides on the right side. Upon double clicking on the
    ListView, if the current node that was clicked on was a folder, then the
    TreeView expands this folder and the contents are then displayed in the
    ListView, otherwise, it was a file and it is brought up in Microsoft
    Word. All this works great if I don't have the elements in the ListView
    widget set to be draggable. If they are set to be draggable, then I am
    finding that the DoubleClick event seems to get registered twice along
    with the ObjectDrop event. This is not good because if I double click
    and the current node is a folder, then it will expand this folder in the
    TreeView, display the contents in the ListView, grab the node that is
    now displayed where that node used to be displayed and run the events
    for that as well. What this means, is that if this is a file, then Word
    is just launched and no big deal. Unfortunately, if this happens to be
    another directory, then the previous directory is dropped into this
    current directory and a recursive copy gets performed, giving me one
    heck of a deep directory tree for that folder.
    Has anybody else seen this, or am I the only lucky one to experience.
    If need be, I do have this exported in a .pex file if anybody needs to
    look at it more closely.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Problems with Customer Service AND unexplained charges!

    I've been with Verizon for I-don't-know-how-many years, and through the years you are bound to have a few problems here and there but some of the problems are just ridiculous! It's also the same reocurring problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was with Alltel first, before it was bought out by Verizon. The years I was with Alltel, I didn't have near as many problems. It seems EVERY time I do the smallest change or something to my phone or bill, I get a ridiculous amount of charges that I was NOT aware of, nor told about... EVEN IF I ask "So this isn't going to change my bill, or there will not be any unexpected/unexplained charges that I don't know about?"... BUT not matter how many times I ask... and NO matter how many times I am told "no"... there always is. For example.... last year, I updated and signed a new 2 year contract and purchased the first Driod. Before, my 30 day warranty was up, I was having problems with my Driod, and decided to send it in and get a new one. Before I did this.. I called customer service to make sure there would be no interuption in my bill, and there wouldn't be any unexpect charges, and there would be no difference in anything. I was told there was not, and once I recieved my new phone, just send it in and nothing would be changed. Of course, when I get my bill.. I see I was charged $500 for the new phone. It was explained to me that my credit card was reimbursed (which I never check that card, because I never used it expect to purchase the phone) and that I was recharged for the new phone, since it was a new phone. So I had to fork out the $500 (on top of my bill) and then wait months to get the $100 rebate card. Months after that, I "assumed liablity of my line" because I was on a plan with my family. I decided to have my own line, so I "assumed liability." I was not told that when I did that, I "renewed" my contract date. So I just added 6 more months to my 2 year contract. Was NOT told about that! Then again...... I was recently having problems with my Driod (the screen went black and would not come back on.) I had to turn on an OLD motorola razor, so I would not be without a phone for two days while I was waiting on my phone to come in. As soon as my phone came in, I had my Droid turned back on. I recieved my bill recently, and my bill was $200 over what it normally should be.... so I called in... apparently, when I had my phone replaced, they dropped off my data package and when I recieved my replacement driod, they never put it back on. So I was being charged for alllll my data usage... again I was NOT told about this. I wasn't even aware that they had dropped off my data package, and when/where did they get the authority to do that??? These are just a FEW of the problems that I have had.................................
    Does anyone have these reoccuring problems!?

    I understand that my bill can be viewed online, and I do view it fairly regularly, so if there are any unexplained charges, I can call Verizon asap. The problem does not come from me not understanding my bill, but from customer service. I have been with Verizon for a very long time, and it is a continuing problem. Where did Verizon get the 'OK' to drop my data package off my plan? Who authorized that?
    After calling Verizon and trying to find out the problem, the gentleman told me that when I activated on old phone while I was waiting on my new Droid to arrive, my data package was dropped off and I "should" have been told about that. When I reactiviated my new Droid, I "should" have called and had them restart my data package. I was not aware that when you activate an old phone that data plan is taken off your plan. In all my years of having cell phones, I never make two years with one phone. I have always, at one point, had to turn on an old phone, and my data package has NEVER changed. Why would I have my data package dropped and why would I have to call Verizon to have it restarted. I would never know to do that unless I was TOLD that my data packaged HAD to be re-added when I recieved my new phone, but I was never told of that.
    All of that is beside the point, the point is, Verizon was never given the authorization to change my plan. Never. My bill was taken care of and readjusted, and I am thankful for that. It does not change the fact it is always a hassle with Verizon Customer Service and I am always the one having to PROVE that I am not at fault, or that I was NEVER told of certian things. EVERY TIME I HAVE CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE, I AM TOLD "I'M SORRY, THEY SHOULD HAVE TOLD YOU THAT."
    "they should" does not help my bill with the extra armount of charges.

  • Problems with dropped calls and no reception on Samsung Continuum

    My mother and I both purchased a Samsung Continuum in late March 2011, and have experienced the same problems with the phone.  The device drops at least 2-3 calls per day, often on the same conversation; we have not found that location or time of day makes a difference.  The phone freezes up frequently, even if no apps are running in the background.  We lose our 3G network reception frequently, and cannot access our texts, emails, or the internet.  The screen saver kicks in even when we are actively dialing a number, or typing in a text message.  The overall performance of the phone is also poor, and it is quite slow much of the time.
    We have raised this issue several times with a representative at one of the Verizon stores, but he states that he can find no problem with the phone, and that these issues may not be covered under our insurance plan.  None of my friends with non-Samsung phones are having the same problems with phone reception and performance.  I am aggravated enough with these issues that I am considering reactivating my old Blackberry, which worked like a charm.
    I am not upset that my phone has not been updated to Android 2.2.  I just want the phone to perform as stated, and not fail at its primary function:  making and receiving phone calls.  I am not certain if these problems originate with the phone, Verizon, or Samsung, nor do I care.  I just want to resolve these issues as soon as possible, or I will have to look at other alternatives.
    Thank you.

    If this doesn't work...now what??? I have a useless $400 plus piece of unreliable junk. My Motorola Razor was ions more reliable than this phone...very, very sad but true.
    What carrier were you using with the Razor? AT&T? Same area?

    Hi all,
    after installing 10.5.6 I have problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes.
    The time to open mails, websides and iTunes store is increasing dramatically since the update. If I open a webside parallel with Safari and Firefox, Safari needs minimum 15 times longer to open the complete side. Mails containing HTML-code also needs a long time to be opened. Tha same Problem with iTunes store. Connecting to the Store costs at least 30 - 40 seconds. And unfortunately for every iTunes store side I open. Its terrible
    Any idea or workaroung to solve that problem?
    Regards
    Michael

    First, run Disk Utility and repair permissions and then restart.
    I installed the 10.5.6 Combo update. Sometimes things get "lost in the translation" when you use Software Update depending on your installation. Perhaps you can download 10.5.6 Combo from the website and install it from your desktop.

  • Problems with .ARW files and auto toning

    problems with .ARW files and auto toning
    let me try to explain this because this has happened in past and never found a way to resolve but i lived with it
    now that I have a Sony A7R the problem is more serious
    Firstly i take pride it making the picture happen all in camera, i use DRO lvl 5 to get enough light, like when i'm shooting at dusk. DRO its like doing HDR but in a single file, it lightens the darks. in my camera i'm happy with results
    but when I upload them to lightroom, they come out near black.
    allow me to explain
    lets say I import 100 images
    i double check my preferences and everything is UNCHECKED when it comes to importing options, there is no auto toning, nothing.
    as the images import i see a preview in the thumbnail which looks fine.
    i double click on one to enlarge it, hence leave grid view.
    for a brief 1 or 2 seconds, i see the full image in all its glory but than lightroom does something funny, it darkens the image
    one by one as it inspects each image, if it was a DRO image it makes it too dark.
    to make this clear, the image is perfect as it was in the beginning but after a few seconds lightroom for some reason thinks it needs to correct it.
    how to prevent lightroom from doing this, i want the image exactly as it is, why must lightroom apply a correction>?
    i think it has to do something with interpreting the raw file and lightroom applies its own algorithm.
    but here is what i dont get.....before lightroom makes the change i'm able to witness the picture exactly as it was taken and want it unchanged..
    now i have to tweak each file or find a profile for it which is added work.
    any ideas how to prevent lightroom from ruining my images and just leave them as they were when first detected...
    there are 2 phases...one is when it originally imports and they look fine
    second is scanning each image and applying some kind of toning which darkens it too much.
    thanks for the help

    sorry thats the auto reply message from yahoo email.
    i've disabled it now
    thing is, there is no DRO jpg to download from the camera
    its only ARW. so my understanding is when i use DRO setting, the camera makes changes to the ARW than lightroom somehow reads this from the ARW.
    but then sadly reverts it to no DRO settings.
    because i notice if i take normal picture in raw mode its dark but if i apply dro to it, it comes out brighter, yet when i d/l the image from camera to lightroom, which is an ARW - there are no jpgs. lightroom decides to mess it up
    so in reality there is no point in using DRO because when i upload it lightroom removes it.
    is there a way to tell lightroom to preserve the jpg preview as it first sees it.
    its just lame, picture appears perfect...than lightroom does something, than bam, its ruined,.
    what do i need to do to prevent lightroom from ruining the image? if it was good in the first place.
