Communictate with PocketPC via LabVIEW IrDA

I am attempting to access the data on my PocketPC (2002) via the IrDA port on it and my laptop running LabVIEW 6.1. It is apparent that I need a "service name" in order to establish communication that I can't seem to find anywhere. Anyone been there, done that, bought the t-shirt?

This is true but I am not running a LV program on the Handheld. I want to talk to the basic apps that are on it currently that can use IR. What I need to know is if I can find the service names that those apps want, can I establish communication? I want to know if anyone has and how.

Is some driver needed when I want to use Matrox card to aquire image via Labview?

Is some driver needed when I want to use Matrox card to aquire image via Labview？and I cannot afford the expense of buying a driver made by alliancevision。 If there must be some driver installed before I acquire image, can anyone email me one? Or just give me some advices. My email address is [email protected]
The attachment is my VI by which I attempt to acquire image, and I don't know what is the problems in it and whether it is because of the lack of the driver.

You asked the same question here under a different user ID.
Asking for someone to email you something that you must purchase is called software piracy. Nobody on this forum will help you with that.

Interfacing C# code with SolidWorks via Softmotion

Hi folks,
I need to interface some C# code with a Solidworks model via LabVIEW/Softmotion, and in the interests of not going up too many blind alleys was wondering if anyone can give me any architectural pointers.
I can interface LabVIEW itself with the code either as a DLL or a TCP/IP server, my preference is for a DLL but its not vital. What I'm wondering is if Softmotion will still interface with SOlidworks if I compile the LabVIEW project as a DLL? The C# app will be sending control commands to the Solidworks model, and receiving confirmation messages (e.g. prox switch open/closed) back, so the TCP/IP option seems to make more sense from the real-time control perspective.
ANy pointers would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
Sorry in advance for not being particularly helpful, but I'm afraid you just have to try to build a DLL with SoftMotion and try interfacing it with SolidWorks to see if it works. I wasn't able to find any information from previous service requests or any other internal literature on this kind of integration; however, I don't think there would be any reasons why it wouldn't work.

Acquisition température capteur ds18b20 sous arduino via LabView

Bonjour,
cela fait déjà quelques jours que je me casse la tête sans pour autant avoir de solution à mon problème. Je cherche à acquérir la température de plusieurs capteurs ds18b20 via LabView (graphes principalement). J'utilise le toolkit Arduino on LabView mais je n'arrive pas vraiment à bien l'utiliser. Le principe de ce module est bien de permettre de ne pas toucher à une seule ligne de code ? Est-ce que je peux lire toute une chaîne de capteur via LabView ?
Par ailleurs je suis en train de consulter un exemple de la fonction "thermistor Read" mais je m'aperçoit que l'entrée de cette fonction est analogique, alors que mes capteurs sont digitaux, y a t-il un équivalent de cette fonction qui me correspondrai ?
Même un petit morceau de code me serait profitable histoire de savoir par où commencer
Merci d'avance pour vos réponses,
cordialement,
Cyril Milon

How to download screen image of AG86100A thru GPIB via Labview

Hi all,
Would you please help me to download the screen image of AG86100A DCA thru GPIB via Labview ? Thank you very much for your help.

If you are looking to grab the screen dump from the instrument (output to an HPGL device like the 7470A plotter) then you could use Printcapture, IntuiLink, Plottergeist or features of the GPIB toolkit.
These will capture a screenshot, not transfer the data that created the image. The alternative is to download the data using the drivers mentioned and then create your own chart/graph using LabVIEW. You could save the image to a file using the indicator's methods and properties from the block diagram.
Now is the right time to use %^<%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%3uZ>T

Can I control Internet Explorer via LabVIEW?

I want programmatic access to web pages via LabVIEW. I have tried using "URL Get HTTP Document.vi" but am rejected at some sites. I have controlled IE via VisualBASIC before. Just wondered if it was possible via LabVIEW.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,
Well it depends on what exactly you want to do but with ActiveX you can control IE (or FireFox) from LabVIEW.

How can I control external devices using a touch screen with a standalone LabVIEW app

For my senior design project my group and I created a hybrid extended range vehicle with 90 Li+ Batteries thats charged by a 15 kW generator and/or that is also being charged by a 5 kW fuel cell. Currently, our system is capable of measuring voltages off of the batteries and displaying them on a laptop via LabVIEW. To process this data, we are using a cRIO FPGA. What we would like to do now is have a touch screen for the driver to choose what power source charges the batteries as well as monitor a pressure reading coming from the fuel cell tank.
What sort of small touch screens allow for LabVIEW to be uploaded on and used for controls?
Does a cRIO have the capability to power such a screen and handle the data transfer from the fuel sensor and switching relays (for switching on and off powersources)?
Do I need an additional license for creating standalone applications and how would i go about creating a standalone app?
sorry for so many question. Any reply helps. Thanks!
Solved!

That sounds like a pretty interesting project. If you are interested, National Instruments hosts a Student Design Competition where you can win cash or a trip to Austin for NIWeek.

NI does sell Touch Panel computers that can be used to control LabVIEW applications. You can find more information here: HMIs and Industrial Touch Panels and here: LabVIEW Real-Time and Touch Panel Deployment and Replication Resources. Our 6-inch touch panel computers run Windows CE, so programming on them is a little different than programming on a full Windows OS. You may find the Getting Started with the LabVIEW Touch Panel Module useful.
You can use third party devices with the LabVIEW Touch Panel Module, although you will need a deployment license for it. More information can be found in the getting started guide.
If you were able to send the cRIO information over a network (which from your description sounds unlikely), you may be able to use a smartphone to control your application. More information can be found on our Community Smartphone Group.

If you were using the 6-inch touch panels, they require 18 to 32 VDC (the fuse becomes an open circuit if input level exceeds 33 VDC). The data transfer from the switching relays can be monitored and changed with the touch panel.
steve215 wrote:

If you went the touch panel route, you would need to purchase the LabVIEW Touch Panel Module, and a touch panel. The NI touch panels come with a touch panel deployment license. Step-by-step guides for creating the standalone app can be found in the Getting Started with the LabVIEW Touch Panel Module guide.

8510C doesn't send data to PC via LabVIEW: why?

I posted this morning regarding the driver for 8510c. even if you do not have the driver, I only need one tip/explanation.
I can control the instrument, sending it commands via Labview (sweep, number of adta point, axis format, etc), but the PC doesn't receive any data back.
If I use the NI measurement & automation tool, I can exchange data between 8510 and pc (query: OUTPDATA; I get several ASCII data back ). I can ask for ID as well (OUTPIDEN). If I use the same commands in labview, I cannot get any data read by Labview (i.e with GPIB read command, the output data variable is left blank).
I only need to be able to record to an excel sheet the S parameter traces, avoiding using the floppy to save data on it.
Even if any of you has a labview 7 version: could you tell me how OUTPDATA; (or OUTPRAW OUTPFORM) work?
THANK U

I just posted a LabVIEW 6 version of the driver in response to your other question but if you can't get OUTPIDEN to work in LabVIEW, then you should check to make sure that you've got the correct address. Do you have the error connections wired up and do you get an error? How many bytes are you specifying for the GPIB Read? The driver uses VISA and you should use that but if for some reason, you want to use the low level GPIB commands, the code for getting the device id should look like the attachment below. After you get this to work, then move on to getting a measurement.

To Control a Power Supply via LabVIEW

Hi,
I am really in the beginning of the learning LabvIEW. I am trying to control a power supply( Ametek XG
1500 ) via LabVIEW through USB cable. I have goggled several websites, but still do not have a clear idea
of how to implement such task. I downloaded COM drivers from www.programmablepower.com. Then, device and
my computer see the USB cable, but I do not have exact clue to make a good program to control power
supply.
I tried to make a program with NI-VISA with SCPI commands. Actually, I am not sure to write true
commands and I can not see the voltage or current value on the front panel. I have never write a program
to control any electronic device. Maybe, I can not see the basic step or not.
Firstly, I want to write a program which makes power on/off to the power supply. I do not know where
should I begin. Please any of you give me an offer to do this task.
Thank you.
Deniz

There is of course, the IVI driver.
I don't understand at all why you would install a different com port driver than the one that comes from Ametek/Sorenesen. In any case, I did not use the IVI driver. I simply created my own using Tools>Instrumentation>Create Instrument Driver Project. Pretty simple for me - I did a basic driver in less than a day. I would suggest you look over the instrument driver tutorial (on main idnet page). The commands are well documented in the manual. Be sure to get the termination characters correct. I can't provide the code I wrote as it was for a customer but if you post what you have written with details on errors you get etc, I'll try to help.

How can I organize multiple iWorks documents shared with me via iCloud?

Hi,
I'm just exploring iWorks for iCloud beta (i4ib). A friend shared a Numbers spreadsheet with me via iCloud. I can open it and edit it as expected. So far, so good. The two of us plan to work on several spreadsheets like this over the next two months. Going back to an old email to retrieve the link to each file when we need it "just ain't Apple" if you'll allow me to paraphrase a quote from Happy Feet.
We would like to be able to use iCloud to organize the spreadsheets *someone has shared with us* so we could access them using the same Spreadsheet Manager tool in iCloud that we would use for any other spreadsheets *we have created and stored on iCloud*. So far I haven't been able to discern how to do so and cannot tell if this is a supported use or not. Does anyone know how to do this? Have I just managed to miss it in the hints and help available?
In the mean time I've copied the a link for each of the spreadsheets he shared with me to a folder on my Safari favorites bar. That work around is suitable for very small collaboration exercises but far from optimal for anyone who envisions using iCloud for collaboration on a larger scale. I thought I'd ask the question before I tried to submit this as feedback to Apple.
Regards,
Elise
PS - I used *bold* to emphasize the difference between a spreadsheet I "own" because I created it and one created by someone else and shared with me.

What you want is not yet possible, so you should use the feedback channel to ask Apple to add it. If Googledocs is better at this (I think it is from what I have read), you should make that point.

iCloud is not designed for sharing data with other people: you will need a third-party alternative such as DropBox or Sugarsync.

TextEdit is an application on your Mac.
Type TextEdit into Spotlight (magnifying icon top right on the menubar) to quickly locate and open it.
It is the basic Text/Word Processor (but actually very capable) that comes with all Macs and a good place to test differences if you hit a problem.

Can not get example to work after following instructions given in "Getting Started with the NI LabVIEW C Generator" guide

We explored using sbRIO for our project, for different reasons we ended up going with a different embedded solution . We are currently evaluating the LabVIEW C Generator to convert some of the core analysis routines from LabVIEW to C so the team that will be creating the embedded solution don't have to re-implement them from scratch.
Before converting our code, I followed the instructions given in the "Getting Started with the NI LabVIEW C Generator" manual to create a static library created inCygwin using GNU Compiler Collection (GCC).
I managed to compile the code, but when I type "run GCD.exe" in the Cygwin console, I just see the window flash with no time to see if the result is correct or not. I modified the main.c cde to add a getchar(), but the window still just flashes and now I am left with the GCD process still running and have to kill it using Windows Task Manager.
Has anyone else got this example to run? I am sure I am missing an obvious setting or step, please help me.
More details below.
Thanks,
Fab
Here is a video showing the steps I followed
If you don't want/can't see the video. Here are some screenshots of what I have done so far:
GratestCommonDivisor.lvproj C Generation build specs Information:
C Function prototype definition:
I copied Makefile located at: C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2011\examples\CGenerator\Tutorial\Cygwin
and replaced both Makefile and Makefile.cygwin in the directory where the C code was generated
I also copied main.c from the same location and replaced the one generated
Here is the snapshot of the results after executing "make GCD.exe"
Then to run it I just type
I see a window open and close really quickly and I never see the result. I have tried adding the getchar() line to the main.c file, but still I don't get to see the results.

Hi Kevin,
I hope you had a good Thanksgiving. I am attaching a zip file with the LabVIEW project, my build specification and my version of "Greatest Common Divisor.vi", which should be the same as the one that you have that ships with the LabVIEW C Generator, but just in case. I am also attaching a zip file with the C files generated by the LabVIEW C Generator.
You can also see the video I posted earlier with the steps I followed. I hope you are able to point out where I went wrong.
Thanks,
