Dear Koninika,
thank you for your assistance very much.
No, I would like to have two computers that communicating whith the same instruments by means of GPIB bus. Both computers have got NI PCI-GPIB card. The addresses is different. Both GPIB boards are system controller. This system works very well untill both computer try to use GPIB bus at the same time. I realize that my confuguration is not fully correct and I have to use call like pass control. But this approach is not fit to my application since it is necessary for me to get two independet system. Using the NI LAN-GPIB gateway hardware does not fit as well since it is impossimle (as far as I understand) to obtain exclusive lock of GPIB-ENET hardware by means of NI VISA and go on u
sing instruments drivers (see my questions "exclusive lock of GPIB or GPIB-ENET hardware by means of NI VISA" in VISA forum).
With best regards,
Mikhail Kozlov

Controlling Brushless maxon DC motrs using NI 6221 PCI Daq card

Hi ,
I have a NI 6221 PCI Daq (M Series) card. I need to know how to use it to control a brushless DC motor from maxon with digital encoder? Also I need to know how to access the daq from matlab 7.0 as i am not familiar with labview and i need to know where i can get the matlab drivers for the card. Also i am trying to learn labview in the course of time. So it would be great if someone can give me some good tutorials in labview for motor control.
Thanks

The lowest cost servo control option from NI is the PCI-7342 board which allows you to control two servo motors.
Please have a look at the datasheet for a detailed description.
Both, the 6221 and the 7342 provide synchronisation capabilities through the internal RTSI-Bus interface. This makes it easy to correlate e. g. analog values and motor positions.
As the 7342 doesn't provide power you will need to connect the board to an external drive.

Can we install a PCI-GPIB card on a laptop

or do we need to install PCMCIA GPIB card for that. We will have windows 2000 installed on the laptop. I want to use LabVIEW 6.0 on my laptop.

Hello Kunal,
Generally speaking you will need to have a PCMCIA GPIB card as there is not way to connect a PCI card to a laptop computer. Depending on your application however there are a few alternatives. We also have a USB based GPIB card which will work in any laptop that has USB connectivity. In addition, you may be able to take advantage of a GPIB ENET device that can be connected to any Ethernet network. This will allow your laptop to connect to your GPIB devices from anywhere.

Data Writing Speed for Excel Sheet while taking data from PCI DAQ card

Dear All,
I am taking the data form the card EX-92026 pci card and writing those datas into the Excel sheet, now i want the data at the speed of max of 10 miliseconds but while writing the data into excel sheet, it shows the diff of 15 ms betn 2 readings, and the card specs says it takes the time of 500 microsecs to give the data, so is there any effect of timing, while writing data into excel sheet? is labview take more time, i am using the Open file, write file and close file method and write to spreadsheet file method, but none of them is giving me the effective timing that i wamt, so can u tell me how can i reduce it??????
Thanks,
Nishant

Hi Nishant:
I think I don't understand you very well. If you are using OpenFile, CloseFile and WriteToSpreadsheet VIs, you are not dealing with excel files, but text files.
Writing to file is costly in time. You can:
Open the file just once and
during de process use just file writing VIs as 'write to spreadsheet'... or a more simple one 'write file'
Close the file once at the end.
If you need the process to be faster, you can save all the data at 10ms rate in an array and write to file at the end.
Or write to file every second what you got the last second.
Hope it helps

Line connection between PCI-6527 card and instrument

Sorry for my foolish. My poor electronic knowledge prevent me from fully understanding what you explained in your last reply and need more help.
In fact, we plan to control two instrument switchs, one is for the Magnetic_Suspension_Control(MSC) , another is for control the Weight-changing-Device(WCD).
The instrument manufacturer provide a cable for the MSC and WCD. The cable looks as follows: there is one connection to the computer(25-pin subD-plug) of which two cables lead away, one to the MSC(6-pin Lemosa)and the other to the WCD(15-pin subD-plug).
The interface of the MSC is internally realized by using only two simple optocouples(OC). Their input-pins are connected directly to the 25-pin SubD-plug of
cable as follwing:
25-pol.SubD; meaning
Pin 9 anode of OC1-LED
Pin 7 anode of OC2-LED
Pin 23 cathode of OC-LED
Pin 18 cathode of OC-LED
Because of the optocouplers draw some current from the NI-card, the manufacturer let me make sure that the NI-card can source circa 7mA(better 10mA) on each pin.
The interface of the WCD consists of three simple TTL-level inputs, which are also directly connected to the 25-pin SubD-plug of our cable as following:
25-pol.SubD; meaning
Pin 4 TTL-Input (remote) (0-1V/3.5-5V)
Pin 3 TTL-Input (weight 1) (0-1V/3.5-5V)
Pin 2 TTL-Input (weight 2)(0-1V/3.5-5V)
Pin 5 common ground
The current drawn by the TTL-inputs is not worth mentioning.
By controling the logic state of these above pin states through labview, I then can control the instrument switch.
Based on above information, how should I choose right resistor for achieving the suitable v
oltage and current on each pin and How should I connect line between PCI-6527 card and 25-pin sub-D plug(I plan to use port 3 of PCI-6527 card).
Thanks, your help is greatly appreciately
zhou

Zhou,
My best recommendation is that you find someone who can give you a better and more direct advise in electronic circuiting. We don't have in our hands the manual of your instrument in order to clarify what it needs and where, although you gave some pin numbers we cannot take the risk of advising something that we don't have the absolute knowledge of. We can give you all the details you want about our card and what does it gives, but you have to decide how are you going to connect it to your instrument. If you recall your email about the manual, in fig. 3-6 page 3-12 you can see a picture of how to connect a TTL driven device, in the last email we gave you an option of how to connect the resistor and where, please read it again, basically I am going to repeat the same, we feel sorry about not been able to give you more help, but is opt to you to find help in electronic theory. Remember in my last email that I told you the 3 cases in which your instrument may need either voltage, current or both, and I told you how RL will change and what new resistors you may need to connect. Review that and make tests with your switch, your question about how to choose the right resistor is answered in the previous email and how to connect lines between the board and the cable of your instrument you have both pin outs... match them... the person who has in his hands the manual and the instrument is the best person to choose how to interfase both appliances... we are sorry Zhou but if we advise you about pin connections of your device with our blindness we have of your device we may make a mistake, we told you about our pins and how to choose resistors.
If you need more direct assistance on this Zhou you may better try to call us, by text messaging is limited and this requires direct guidance. If you decide to call us you can find instructions at www.ni.com/ask hope you move forward in your application as soon as possible.

Hello,
Thanks for your reply.I will try to answer your questions.
I have checked the Device Mananger and I have seen that the device is detected by Windows XP. For another question the card shows up under both NI-DAQmx Devices and Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) Devices consistently in the Measurement & Automation Explorer.I use a way that I reset the driver for traditional NI-DAQ in MAX,and then i reset the device for NI-DAQmx driver in MAX and again i tried to run the test panel of DAQmx driver but again i saw a wrong signal or noise signal on the test panel i could not see the sinusoidal signal that i connected. i do get the test panels to run with the card using the DAQmx driver, But could not run the DAQ diagnostic utility.The error was as i specified below.

How To Install mini-pci wireless card in 1955-S805 ?

I'm trying to install a new mini-pci wireless card in my Satellite 1955-S805. I was able to pry off the black shiny strip above the keyboard, and unscrew the two screws holding down the keyboard. But under the keyboard is a silver metal plate. There doesn't appear to be a way to get past that. Everything I've read seems to say that the mini-pci card goes under the keyboard.
Does anyone know how to install a mini-pci card in these 1955-S805 notebooks? Or does anyone have a tech manual on this model?
Thanks,
Pat

Hi Pat
I am not sure but you have an US model. I have 1900-703 notebook. It is a European model and I had no problem to install mini-pci wireless card.
Your unit has also wireless keyboard. Am I right?
If you want to built in wireless card you must remove the keyboard from notebook using keyboard releases on the left and right side of your unit. After that you can see small cover on the place of keyboard and this cover is fixed with one screw. Under this small cover there is wireless card slot.

RTSI cable configuration with PCIe 1433 card

Hi All:
I tried to trigger my line camera with RTSI signal.
The layout is: trigerr signal is generated from one PCI card 6259 (Dev2/ctr0). The line camera is connected with one PCIe 1433 card, and the two cards were connected with RTSI cable.
The problem is that how to register or configure PCIe 1433 with RTSI cable in MAX, it seems I can only configure PCI card within RTSI cable ......
If it is true, how should I do to rout the trigger signal to the camera, such as "route Dev2/ctr0 to Trigger line 0"?
Below is printscreen of MAX Configuration. Attached is my VI.
thanks a lot.
Bob
Attachments:
Triggered with RTSI from DAQ.vi ‏63 KB
camera configuration.jpg ‏218 KB

Thanks a lot, the post helped.
But I am still confused with the details:
To camera and PCIe 1433 configruaration, as the attached pictures shows: RTSI is configurerd as Camera Control Line as number "2"; the exposure control of camera is defined as "triggered".
In previous attached VI, you may find that the IMAQ configurer trigger is applied to define trigger type as "RTSI", trigger number as "2".
About ttrigger signal from PCI 6259 (Dev2), digital pulse is generated and output terminal is defined as ctr0 ( seems only ctr0 or ctr1 is option).
So I still do not know how to route signal from "Dev2/ctr0" to "Imag0 CCL 2" in labview.
By the way, I read the online example "LL Triggered Ring using DAQmx Pulse Train", http://www.ni.com/example/29476/en/. Within this VI, the DAQmx Connect Terminals VI is applied to route the counter's output to a RTSI pin so the signal can be used by the IMAQ device. However Dev2/ctro is not recognized as scour terminal, only other items such as PFI, APFI or RTSI are avaible, and output signal source is also limited with similar things, sounds like just internal connectrion with Dev2.
thanks a lot.

PCI video card replacement for PowerMac G3 (Blue and White)

Hi, I am new to this forum. I apologize if this issue has been addressed before, but I have been reading over the forum for the last 2 days and tried all the steps I could find. I have an old PowerMac G3 (Blue and White).
It used to run fine. I had a friend with a similar computer and he
needed a video card, so I gave him the one in my Mac G3, because I was not using it at the time.
Now, I have decided I want to use it. I am running into an issue with the video (It takes PCI), I get no display, but I can hear the hard drive spin, it lights up, I hear the Apple "ding".
I have about 6 PCI video cards laying around, and I have tried all of them, resetting the CUDA each time. Still cannot get a display.
I have tried different slots on the motherboard, checked the PRAM battery, (it was good). Tried booting off a live Linux CD for power PCs, tried the commandoption+pr until I hear the apple "ding" go off 2x, I have tried a different monitor and monitor cable.
Nothing seems to work, I need to know what I should try next.
Thank you for your help in this matter.

"I have about 6 PCI video cards laying around, and I have tried all of them, resetting the CUDA each time. Still cannot get a display."
If these graphics cards are designed for use in PCs, they won't work in your Mac. Compatible graphics cards must be programmed with a Mac ROM. Some "PC" cards can have their EEPROM chip flashed with a Mac ROM, provided that someone has extracted the particular Mac ROM code for the card in question. A web search will provide leads for that. If you just want a decent graphics card, go for a Radeon 7000 Mac Edition (2002 vintage card). If you check eBay, you should be able to find a flashed "PC" Radeon 7000 card. I'd try to get the one with 64 MBs of DDR memory, as opposed to the 32 MB model. If you don't mind spending more $$, you can find a more current PCI graphics card for your G3, like the Radeon 9200 at Other World Computing.

Satellite 1905-S303 PCI wireless card won't start code 10

I've put a broadcom BCM94306PM PCI wireless card in my laptop. The laptop is equipped with antenae however one is damaged and can't be connected, these cards can work with one side only and I've even read somewhere that they can work over a short range with no antenae. My problem is device manager states that the device cannot start code 10. I have a clean install of XP Pro with SP1 (not from the original restore disc). With this in mind I suspect that there must be some Toshiba utility or driver missing to allow the card to work. Any help appreciated.

I've downloaded drivers that others have stated are for this wireless card but I'm not able to find drivers that work. I've heard speak of a Toshiba Wireless LAN manager type of utility but I can't find any other reference to this on Toshiba site. This is not an original Toshiba wireless card, but I thought you could just plug any mini PCI device in and install drivers to suit. Is this not the case? The person that I purchased the card from says that some manufacturers prevent use of third party PCI devices. I find this unlikely. Could this card really be broken?

Laptop & DAQ card

Is it possible to use a PCI daq card (like the 6035e) on a laptop computer (Dell computer Inspiron 8100) via an adaptor or do I have to buy a PCMCI card?

Hello;
Even though you might find PCI/PCMCIA adaptors to adapt one bus type to the other, that doesn't guarantee the DAQ board will work on that setup.
I'm saying that because the NI-DAQ driver wasn't tested under such circunstance. Depending on how the driver of the adaptor is structured, the NI-DAQ driver for our DAQ devices might have difficulties on recognizing the DAQ device.
I think the safe choice is to purchase a PCMCIA DAQ card.
Hope this helps.

LabView DAQ card programming

I have recently started using an NI USB-6211 DAQ card on my laptop. I have the driver software installed and the DAQ is working, but when in LabVIEW main package, I dont have any functions in measurement tab or express tab to use to control the DAQ . I would appreciate some help
Solved!
Go to Solution.

That version of DAQmx is not supported with LabVIEW 2012.
Try download the newest driver, version 9.7, http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/3811/lang/en
