Configuring ClearCase with LabVIEW SCC

Hi,
I am developing VIs with LabVIEW pro. We are using ClearCase for SCC and I would like to configure LabVIEW with ClearCase.
VIs are stored under vobs on a world wide network.
Does anyone know how I can do?
Second question, is it possible to configure ClearCase to use the LabVIEW pro compare tool? This will give ClearCase the capability to compare VI versions.
BR,
Pascal.

Hello,
ClearCase is not supported by LabVIEW, if you want to use a SCC, you can perform this task with the following SCC providers: Perforce and Visual Source Safe and Built-in.
Built-in SCC is recommended only for small projects and is available in LabVIEW at no additional cost. “Microsoft Visual Source Safe” and “Perforce SCM” are complete SCC tools that are fully integrated into LabVIEW but must be purchased from the corresponding vendor.
You can find more information at the following link:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/conceptd.nsf/webmain/69ea27204d24f78586256e2400773abe
If you really want interfacing LabVIEW and ClearCase, VI Engineering can perhaps help you:

How to configure clearcase with sun studio enterprise 8

Hi,
I am trying ot setup sun stuido enterprise 8 with the clearcase server. If any one has instruction set for that please let me know.
Thanks!

Hello,
ClearCase configuration information for an older IDE versions is available as test specification on NetBeans site:
http://vcsgeneric.netbeans.org/qa/testspecs/s1s5/ProfileCC.html
In JSE8 ClearCase configuration process is very similar.
But is available through adding VCS working directory in 'Versioning Manager' (open it using 'Versioning | Versioning Manager' main menu item).

Configuring ClearCase for LV8

Hi,
I am trying to configure ClearCase to run with LV8. I have setup and
multiple different SCC programs (PVCS, VSS, Perforce, etc.) with LV8
but cannot figure out how to configure the directory and the project
for ClearCase.
Do I need to create a Project VOB or just a Project View? If I just
have a Base View is it possible to link ClearCase to LV?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hello Again,

Thanks for input but I want to integrate CC with LV.
The developers are not following the rules with seperately running apps so I need to force the issue. We have been creating and using Views for a long time. LV does not work with a VOB only a PVOB.
Any help in integrating the 2 would be greatly appreciated.
I felt sure this was incorrect; a PVOB
only has real meaning to ClearCase UCM and if a PVOB was needed then anybody
using Base ClearCase (a far better way of working) would be unable to integrate
LV and ClearCase.
So I download the LabView 8.2.1 evaluation copy,
installed it and started it up, configured ClearCase as the source control
system and it worked first time with no PVOB and
no problems. I only have ClearCase VOBs as I hate UCM. :-)
I can checkout,
checkin, see the VI history (ClearCase history that is). There a quite a number
of things you cannot do with the integration and as such will still often want
to use the ClearCase explorer to be able to work.
The only
reference to UCM in the whole thing was an option in the Advance Settings
window. In the Source Control Panel
setting (LabView options), there is an advance button next to the "Source
control provider name", in this Advance window under operations there is an
option "Always prompt for an activity when working in a view of a ClearCase
Project." that is an obvious reference to a UCM activity, but even with that
still ticked Base ClearCase works fine.
My system is
Base ClearCase
(not UCM)
VOB and View
server are running on a Sun system
Client is on a
Windows XP box.
Steps I took
(assumes familiar with ClearCase terms)
LV
LV Source
Control Panel --- Source Control Provider Name -- ClearCase --- all options
can be left as default.
ClearCase
Using a normal VOB
-- called ATS.
I have a number of
ClearCase already views created.
The Views need to
be controlled vi ClearCase NOT LV, use ClearCase explorer or Homebase or
command line to create your views as you normally do.
Ensure that your
VOB is mounted (use ClearCase explorer)
Ensure your view
have started and has been mounted. For example my view dannyt-test is mounted to
drive P:
Navigate to your
LabView VI's within ClearCase vi the View mount point - so
P:\ATS\LVProject\
Open your VI, now
the in Tools -> source Control -> you can checkin / checkout the
VI.
I have not tried
using the View extended pathname method, but I would expect that to work as
well.
As somebody who
has worked as a build release manager and ClearCase administrator I would not
expect the level of integration of LabView and ClearCase to solve your
problem
Getting developers
to follow rule needs to be done with training, encouragement, ClearCase
triggers and a good source control process that is both clear and workable. The
final item is a very large stick :-)
What part specifically is not working for you ? do you have any error messages ?
good
luck

How do you use Synergy 7.1 with LabVIEW?

My company has reciently installed and configured IBM Rational Synergy 7.1 to be used as our Source Code Control tool. I have installed the appropriate Microsoft Source Code Control Interface so that Synergy will show up in LabVIEW and it does show up in the "Source Control" options window.
However when I select Synergy as my source control tool it does the following:
1. Brings up the login window - I am able to login with no problem
2. Brings up a dialog allowing me to select the project to work on, and after I select the project I get two errors...
one from Synergy: "The workspace/project you want to add to IBM Rational Synergy is not under the work area path 'C:\xxx"
(where xxx is my work area for the Synergy project I selected)
then one from LabVIEW: "Error -2941 occured at prefPage_Source Control.vi An error occured trying to get the source control project path. Possible reasons: LabVIEW: The source control provider does not support the specified operation."
I first tried this on an earlier version of Synergy that matched what is being used in:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/16D37CCC8659123F8625720500087DB4
But I was getting pretty much the same errors back then too. It seems like it should work in LabVIEW, I just have no idea what I am doing wrong!
Anyone out there successfully using LabVIEW with Synergy????
Thanks,
Trevor.

In theory if a source control provider supports the Microsoft SCC interface, it *should* work with LabVIEW. In practice, each provider has custom implementation that sometimes causes problems when trying to configure the provider from LabVIEW. One sticking point for many providers is the expectation or assumption that an IDE will use some concept of a "project" and therefore pass data associated with that project to the provider. LabVIEW does not enforce that concept but does pass valid information.
Synergy was tested back when it was a Telelogic product. It was difficult to configure and required exact steps to get it to work correctly. The linked knowledge base were steps taken that worked for a few customer setups. It's possible that on other Synergy setups the exact steps may not work. Also, you might check to make sure you try to configure existing Synergy projects and not try to create new ones from LabVIEW.
The error you mentioned seems to imply that some data is not supported by Synergy. I am not sure if Synergy would be able to track down the issue, but I would recommend contacting them to see if they can pinpoint what data LabVIEW is sending is not valid.

How can I create a scene and move 3D models in INSIGHT with Labview?

Hi!
I need some help in doing a LabView application. What i have to do is controlling a 3D model represented in Insight with Labview. Something similar like the six-axis-robot example. I follow the insight configuration wizard, but nothing moves. Comparing the ".cis" files in my program and the one from the six-axis-robot, i found that in the six-axis-robot file contains something called localsystem and the one made by me, doesn't. Can be this the problem? How can I make it work? I would need some kind of step-by-step response, because i'am a beginner with Insight and 3D models. Thanks in advance!
Regards!
Juan

Thanks for the advice!
I'm actually finding the next problem. Although in my VRML file the objects are defined separately in a jerarchy tree, I can't move(rotate, translate) each object individually. I have noticed that when i define a new local system and asign it the points of the object i want move in the way you explain (right click, and then dragging the points to the new local axis), the movement of this object is dependent of the other local systems i have defined for other objects , specially if the slave nodes of the .cis file has a lower numeration than the object i want to move. The fact is, the movements assigned , for example to the nodes 1 to 100, will affect to the rest of the nodes if i also define for the rest of the nodes other movements. How can i solve this? I send you my .cis file, just in case my explanation is not enough clear. In this file you can see that movements assigned to nodes 1 to 4078, will also affect to nodes 4079 to 7168, and what i would like to do is define a movement for each obeject independently.
Thanks again!

How can I set the SRQ bit on GPIB with LabView ?

Hello,
I am developping an application with LabView RT on a PXI RT system. This application acts as an instrument (non controller GPIB), and I need to assert the SRQ line. How can I do that ?
I know the ibrsv function, but I can't find it in LabView, and I can not use it through a DLL call since GPIB DLLs are not compatible with Real-Time.
Thank you.

Hello Alfonso,
It sounds like you might be getting errors -200279 and -200278. (In the future, if you post the actual error codes, it helps us to know exactly what is happening). Error -200279 happens when you are performing a hardware-timed acquisition (meaning the data is sampled according to a clock signal on your board), but your LabVIEW program is not reading the values from the buffer allocated for that task in computer memory fast enough. Basically it's a buffer overflow error. It means older samples have been overwritten before you attempted to read them out. As the error message suggests, "increasing the buffer size, reading the data more frequently, or specifying a fixed number of samples to read instead of reading all available samples might correct the problem." For more information on this error, please see the KB (DAQmx) Error -200279 During a Continuous, Buffered Acquisition.
Error -200278 happens most often when you have configured a finite acquisition, but are calling the DAQmx Read function in a loop. If you want to perform a finite acquisition, you should only call DAQmx Read once. For more information on this error, see the KB Error -200278 at DAQmx Read.
Finally, please refer to Abhinav's earlier post about the sample rate on the 9237 module. As he described, the NI-DAQmx 8.3 driver will only allow you to set the sample clock to integer divisions of 50k (50,000/n, where n can be 1, 2, 3...13). Since the maximum divisor is 13, the smallest sample rate that can be used is 3.846 kS/s. You can check what value the driver is actually using for the sample clock by reading from the SampClk.Rate property of the DAQmx Timing property node.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions about what I've described.
Best regards,

Error, in Getting started with Labview. Chapter 3, part 4.

Hi.
Still struggling on, trying to find the time to work through the "Getting Started with LabVIEW" document.
Only 19 days left to go, and I'm still only in chapter 3!...
Right. In the "Saving Data When Prompted by a User" exersise, part 4...
4.   Right-click the Signals input of the Write To Measurement File
      Express VI and select Insert Input/Output from the shortcut menu to
      insert the Comment input.
Problem is, that option is greyed out, so not available!...
I did what the instructions said, I right clicked on the "Signals" input, and it doesnt do what it says on the tin!
Any pointers?   Please don't mention search the help, I've crashed the entire LV environment 3 times now, trying to search for something in there. It's OK if it finds someting, but it seems to bomb at times, when there is some ambiguity when searching.
Also, I won't be able to do anyting with any replies for a day or two, as I have to go up country to a customer, and mess about with hot oil, high volts, and lots of RF. It never ends.   (I've still got the day job to do, while trying to fight my way through this "evaluation". 30 days of "Use" would be better, than 30 calendar days for some of us.)

OK... Who let the smoke out?

Hi Dennis, and everyone else..
That is not how it looks when first dropped on the BD. On my machine, it is partialy expanded by default, after you clear the Configure dialog that pops up ocupying most of the screen.
Again, if it makes a difference to the way the Right Click shortcut menu works, it should be documented in the Getting Started document, especialy as it seems to be a critical point.
OK, explain this...
I've just rubbed out the save to file VI, cleaned up the broken wires etc, and then planted a new one on the BD. Once I cleared the Configure dialog that covers up most of the screen before you see it the first time, the VI was partialy expanded. I forget the exact list, but "Signals" was not at the top.
I did *EXACTLY* the same again, deleted it, cleaned up, and then planted a fresh new one. That DID appear that time with nothing but the "Signals" item showing, and two down caretts below that, indicating more items.
So......
Why the different behaviour each time, on the same BD, in the same session. Some underlying working data not being correctly initialised when invoked? Of course, that never happens, right? ('C' programmes eh?)
Trying some more, it seems the behaviour loosley depends on just how close to the edge of the While loop grey border you place it.   Odd.   I have a 1280x800 screen to play with, and a 1280x1024 second screen I use for the Getting Started document. That is the absolute maximum I can have, due to hardware limits.
I also find, that if you fully expand the "Write to Measurement File" VI block, then fully collapse it, then expand it again, all the items in that list have changed places! Why?
I had noticed earlier that there is no uniformity in the layout of even the items common to many if not all VI blocks (error in, and error out to name but two) Sometimes one is above the other, sometimes the other way round, sometimes they are not even ajacent to each other. Has that been done as a source of minor ammusement or something?
Talking to another colegue here, who just wandered in to see how I was getting on with this. Seems he also has tried the introductory entry into LV (V8.something) in the past. But he too, found too many things that behaved differently from one time to another, so abandoned it as a lost cause, then decided to learn how to use Visual Basic with NI-GPIB IO instead.   Not without issues either he said, but at least it all behaves exactly the same, each and every time.
End of the day now...
Regards.

How can I Save and Load the Configuration File of a VNA HP8510C with LabView

Hello, I'm working with a HP8510C. In order to simplfy the use, I try to save and to load the configuration file. Actually, such files are saved in the HP8510C, but there is only 4 places to save. It will be more interresting when I can storage this file in the computer with Labview. I don't have found anything about in the Documentation.

How to switch central frequency fastly with labview and USRP?

Hello everybody,
         Recently I was making a frequency hopping receiver with labview and USRP N210 and SBX. The transmitter works on the 2.4G band, and it changes from one central frequency to another every 65536us. As I think, if I start receiving at the correct time, and change the central frequency of the USRP every 65536us, I should be able to receive the data.
    But I find that, when usrp switch form one central frequency to a different one, it spends nearly 48ms and when it switch from one frequency to the same one, it only spends 3ms(I test the performance by modifying the niUSRP EX Rx Continuous Async Reconfig on the Fly.vi example). So if I want to follow the hopping sequency, I may can only receive 17ms data because I have to save time for switching central frequency.
     My problem is that: why usrp changes central frequency so slow, how can I make the process faster? If I want to follow the hopping sequency, can anybody give me some good advice? Thanks

There is an attribute "LO Frequency" that you can use to lock down the frequency of the local oscillator. Then, when you set the "Carrier Frequency" attribute, the difference between the carrier frequency value and the LO frequency value will be realized by frequency shift in the DSP in the FPGA. Changing this "digital" frequency shift value is much faster, since you don't have to re-tune the local oscillator.
Let's say you're sweeping from 2.44 GHz to 2.46 GHz. Set the "LO Frequency" to 2.45 GHz then Commit. Then, in your loop, program the "Carrier Frequency" attribute from 2.44 GHz to 2.46 GHz. In the loop, it will only program the digital frequency shift, which will happen much faster.
Another tip is to use the property node to program only the attributes you want to change, rather than the niUSRP Configure Signal.vi (which sets many at once).
For more details, see the "Configuration:Advanced:LO Frequency Property" in the NI-USRP Help, and look at this example:
<LabVIEW dir>\examples\instr\niUSRP\niUSRP EX Fine-Tune LO Frequency.vi

Hi,

RS-232 through TCP/IP with LabView

Hello
I currently have a serial device being read through a hardware RS232 to TCP/IP converter.
On the computer with labview I use a third party virtual serial port that reads the TCP/IP data and converts it pack to COM port data.
I then read the COM port normally with VISA.
I would like to remove the third party TCP/IP to RS232 software and have LabView read the TCP/IP port and convert to serial.
How would I achieve this?
More details on the hardware and 3rd party sofware;
thydzik.com/monitor-cms2000-inverter-via-tcpip-usr-tcp232-e4-rs232ip-convertor/
More details ont he labview code here;
thydzik.com/log-solar-generated-to-pvoutput-with-labview/
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I don't think it's as complicated as you seem to expect. Try the VISA TCP approach. Create a VISA TCP resource, in raw mode, as explained in the white paper. Take your existing code, replace the COM resource with the new TCP one, remove the serial port configuration, and it might just work. Make sure you close the resource when you stop there program.
If you want to go with the TCP functions, take a look at the examples. You open a connection, read and write strings to it exactly as you would with a serial port, and close it when you're done.

SpaceX is looking for engineers with LabVIEW experience in Hawthorne CA (LA area)

SpaceX is looking for engineers with LabVIEW programming experience for our Launch group. Our responsibilities include:
Controlling launch pad equipment via PXI/LabVIEW
Commanding and monitoring our Falcon 1 and Falcon 9 rockets via a LabVIEW-based Vehicle control system
Commanding and monitoring our Dragon capsules via a LabVIEW-based Mission Operation system
Ocean recovery of Falcon 1 and Falcon 9 stages after liftoff and Dragon capsules after splashdown
Cargo configuration of Dragon capsules going to resupply the International Space Station
Maintenance of Mission Control Centers with the help of our IT department
With the exception of the launch pad equipment program, most of our LabVIEW programs do not interact with DAQ hardware (unusual, I know). The Vehicle control and Mission Operations software get their data via Ethernet from 'black boxes' that connect to NASA & Commercial RF ground stations. We also create several utility programs in LabVIEW that also don't interact with hardware. So, this is mostly a software gig, not a hardware/software gig.
Ideal candidates will have the following qualities:
CLD-level LabVIEW experience
A good understanding of basic computer networking (TCP/IP, UPD, firewalls, VPN)
Must be enthusiastic about space (What year did we land on the moon? How many men walked on the moon? How many Space Shuttles do we currently have? etc.)
Must be willing to travel. Common destinations include Houston (NASA Johnson Space Center), McGregor TX (test site), Cape Canaveral FL (launch site), Kwajalein Marshall Islands (launch site)
Must be able to work without supervision. We have a very flat management structure, no one will be telling you what you need to do. If you don’t know, ask. If you do know, get it done.
About the job:
Job is located in Hawthorne, CA in the Los Angeles area.
This is not a 9-5 job. There will be some late nights.
You won't be LabVIEW only. Everyone chips in as needed. Our group has done Javascript, C++, MATLAB, configuring of TELEX comm systems, cutting of metal with bandsaws, welding, Unigraphics CAD, etc. If we need it and you don't know it, grab a book and learn.
We are only hiring full time employees. Contractors need not apply.
To conform to U.S. Government space technology export regulations, SpaceX hires only U.S. citizens and U.S. Permanent Residents.

Ship Quick Drop Object Shortcuts with LabVIEW

In my daily work, I'd guess that over 90% of the time I drop something with Quick Drop, I use an object shortcut name ('cs' for Case Structure, 'rn' for Property Node, etc.):
You can configure object shortcuts by clicking the Configure button in the Quick Drop window. I've often suggested that people download and use my Quick Drop Palette Object Shortcuts for Right-Handed Developers to be able to drop most objects without ever having to move the left hand from the keyboard and the right hand from the mouse.
But in order for you to benefit from having object shortcuts, you either need to (1) create your own or (2) download mine from the link above. Neither of these options are particularly discoverable, nor do they make it easy to get started with the feature.
I propose that NI start shipping a pre-defined set of Quick Drop object shortcuts with LabVIEW so that everybody can have access to them from the start.
