Controlling PI C-865 via USB

Hello,
I am controlling movement of PI M-665 via PI C-865. Everything works fine when connected via RS232 but I also wanted to try USB communication. I simply connected the device by appropriate cable and then appeared attached message. I tried to install USB-Serial virtual driver from PI CD that came with the device but without any success. The name of device mentioned in the message seems to me really weird - PI C 857.10 Encoder Trigger Box. What’s that? I didn’t find any information on internet. I also downloaded the latest USB-Serial driver by same company as the one provided on the CD. But this didn’t help as well.
Did somebody face same problem?

I almost forgot to mention the final solution. It might help one day somebody.
As suggested I contacted the company and they solved the problem very quickly and willingly. The FTDI USB to serial converter-chip in the motion controller was programmed wrong with the Product ID and identification string for the C-857.10. They sent us different .inf file that solved the problem.
Now everything works fine

  • Control a micro-controller via usb

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a way to control a micro-controller via usb using a java program. The micro-controller is used as an on/off switch. Is there a micro-controller that has a java driver provided?
    thanks

    The environment for Arduino is programmed in Java ( http://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software ) and you can use Java serial comms to communicate with it ( http://www.csc.kth.se/utbildning/kth/kurser/DH2400/interak06/6-Comm.html ).
    Mine hasn't arrived yet, but I'm planning to play with one.

  • Honda stereo cannot control iPhone 5 music via USB

    I have a 2012 Honda Fit with the stock stereo. I have been able to play the music off of my iPhone 5 when connected to the car stereo via the USB/Thunderbolt cable. It seems after I upgraded to iOS 8 that I can no longer hear or control the iPhone from the car stereo's controls. I can see on the display that it playing song 14/401 (or whatever number) but no music.
    I am able to use my Plantronics Bluetooth ear bud to answer & make phone calls.
    The phone is able to charge while plugged in & I am able to sync with iTunes on my desktop PC.
    Is this a Honda Issue or Apple not providing compatibility with the car stereo?
    Anybody else having this issue?
    Thanks!

    I have tried all the suggestions above.
    Restoring, Reseting, Unpairing etc...
    It "works" for a little time, but after a couple hours or so it starts failing again.
    All the fixes reported are temporary solutions, we need a definitive solution

  • Complete control via USB of webcam or digital camera

    Hi,
    After searching in the forum and over internet, I finally decide to post my question.
    I'm looking forward to control a webcam via usb with Labview 8.5. I want to be able to have a full control over the camera settings, particularly for acquisition. I also need to acquire the raw image or raw data composing the image. So I can't afford any degradation of the image by any out of control process. I think that the NI-IMAQ software is not really suited for my requirements right? 
    As I don't have the Vision package, I thought that I should build my own driver with NI-VISA. In fact I did it and I think it is working well. I'm able to see all the properties of my webcam with a simple VI.
    But then come the question: how can I acquire images and control the settings. The company told me that they are using generic UVC (USB Video Class) and that no custom commands were used. I downloaded all the information on the USB-IF website, but it seems to me that there is still something I don't understand to get going...
    Is there anybody who can please help me with that problem? Any simple example would be very welcome...or any other solution.
    After controlling a webcam, my ultimate goal would be to control a digital camera...I suppose this should be pretty similar...
    Thank you very much for your help,
    Frank

    Hello,
    If your camera is DirectShow compliant, IMAQdx from Vision Acquisition Software 2009 already provides support for USB cameras. This is described on this page: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/5030 as well as in the release notes for the software.

  • Control Blackberry via USB?

    Has anyone seen any software that's capable of controlling a Blackberry on a PC via USB?
    (sort of like Logmein Rescue/B*Nator does but not wireless, as this is very slow). 

    The SOTI Pocket Controller-Pro for BlackBerry is a good program for this.  It cost $40, but I have recently found a promo code that will give you 50%, but it may run out soon.  The Promo code is BBAPPWORLD you can put this on when you're at the purchase screen on the website. You can also download it and try out the trail version for about a week.  I've attached the links below and a youtube video that demonstrates what it can do, 
    This is a link to download the app to the Blackberry (the Blackberry needs to be connected when you're doing this)
    http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/13746/?lang=EN
    This link is the software you need to download onto your computer

  • HP Deskjet 3550 cannot print using Airport Extreme via USB connection on Windows 7 64 bits

    Product Name and Number: HP Deskjet 3550 Inkjet Printer
    Operating System installed: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bits
    Error message: None
    Any changes made to your system before the issue occurred: Setting up HP printer using Airport Utility to add a new printer and installed Bonjour Print Wizard.
    Problem: My printer is already set up using Airport Utility. When I print something, the printer doesn't do anything. Is there something I haven't done lately in order to get this printer working using my wifi router?
    Suggestion #1: Are the print jobs getting stuck in the print queue? You can check this by clicking on the printer icon in your task tray by the clock.
    Error Message #1: Yes, the print job got stuck in the print queue, but the moment, it disappeared from the print queue and the printer doesn't print at all. This is frustrating.
    Suggestion #2: Does the printer work as expected if you connect it directly to the PC via USB?
    Error Message #2: Yes, the printer works if I connect it directly to my PC via USB, but I don't understand why it wouldn't work with the wifi router, though.
    Suggestion #3: This has to do with the way the router handles the connection to the printer. I found another thread, regarding this issue, and it has some information that may help resolve it.
    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Networking-and-Wireless/Print-Problem-Using -USB-Printer-on-Airp...
    If that does not help, I would recommend posting on the Apple forums, as they may have more expertise with the router's abilities:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/wireless/airport
    Error Message #3: After clicking on the first link that you posted, it was very helpful, but the printer couldn't print completely and somehow it would stop at the quarter of a paper. It looks incomplete when I took it out from my printer. It does that every time.

    UPDATE!
    Problem solved!  So this is just a followup in case someone else ever stumbles into these boards with the same or similar problems as mine, that is, trying to run an HP Deskjet D1500 series printer [mine's a D1520] on an Airport Extreme wifi router's USB port as a network printer [with the Airport Extreme controlled by an ancient G4 PowerMac Quicksilver currently running OS X 10.4.11).
    Although it probably SHOULDN'T matter, since this type of printer works fine with just the Tricolor cartridge as shipped when hooked up directly to a computer's USB port, on a hunch I got a black HP cartridge (that's a type 21, not type 22 as I had earlier said), slapped it in, tried a test page, and all's well.  So, we can call off the technoid hounds.  Everything running perfectly.
    I hope this message in a bottle may help someone else out there some day soon who may be scratching his or her head with a similar stumper.  And just to recap those important Windows printer settings, they are:
    * [Printer Properties--> Ports--> Add New Port...] "Standard TCP/IP Port"
    * [Configure Port] IP Address "10.0.1.1" and Port "9100"
    Best of luck!

  • I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac.  The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. Any tips on how to do this?

    I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac.  The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. I installed the current Bonjour printer services software on the Windows machine, and separately installed the driver software for the Epson printer on the WIndows machine.  Running the bonjour wizard, I get an alert saying 'I don't have sufficient access to my computer to connect to the selected printer'.
    The printer has 'sharing' turned on from the Mac end; this works with a Powerbook via the wireless connection.  Sharing is also turned on in the Windows printer control panel for this printer (under properties).  The Mac is a G5 running 10.5.8.  When I try to print a page from the Windows machine it gets hung in the print queue.
    Any advice how to proceed would be appreciated!

  • Job stops (HP DJ 3550 connected to AEX via USB)

    Hi everybody,
    Here is the setup:
    1- PB G4 15" w/ MacOS X 10.4.2 uptodate w/ Airport Extreme card installed
    2- Airport Express base (firmware 6.2) setted using Airport Admin Utility 4.2:
    - Home router
    - WAN: ADSL modem connected using PPPoE
    - USB: HP DeskJet 3550 (recognized by system)
    - Network managed by DHCP & NAT
    - No Port Mapping, no Access Control, no WDS, no Music
    3- HP DeskJet 3550 connected via USB to AEX
    4- Printer added to PB using Printer Setup Utility V4.1 (157.2):
    - hp deskjet 3500, connected through Bonjour
    - Driver HP Inkjet 2.7.1
    From whatsoever application I print, it starts the job in the printer queue then stops (msg Jobs stopped).
    I included the console file for the experts...
    I tried reset, driver, update... you name it, it still doesn't work.
    It works using the USB and a Airport Extreme Base Station.
    I know that this printer is not in the compatibility list, but it really works with my AEBS!!
    Any help would be very appreciated as I am completly clueless...
    Thank you in advance... Pascal

    Hi Chris, thank you for the update and the trick.
    I have also some (good) news on my side.
    I tried the same as you did (restarting/reseting the AEX several times) and, effectively, the printer worked... until it stopped again a few prints after.
    So I went with the hard way (no, it is not throwing the AEX by the window).
    I installed the HPIJS and declared the printer as a network component with an IP address (like if it has a JetDirect). Now the problem is definitly fixed.
    Here are the steps:
    (see also page http://www.ifelix.co.uk/tech/1300.html)
    go to page http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hpijs/ and download both softwares:
         - hpijs-foomatic-2.0.2.ppc.dmg
         - espgs-7.07.1.ppc.dmg
    Install them.
    Go to Printer Setup Utility
    Add a new printer
    Select IP Printer
    Select Protocol HP Jet Direct - Socket
    Enter address: 10.0.1.2 (or the address of your AEX)
    Queue: leave blank
    Name: HP DeskJet 3550 - HPIJS (or the name you want)
    Location: Airport Express Base (or the location you want)
    Print using: HP
    Select model: HP DeskJet 3550C HPIJS (or your model)
    Set the printer as default if necessary

  • How can I use my iPod Touch as a remote for iTunes, while connected via USB?

    I was wondering if I could use my iPod touch as a remote/iTunes extension while it is connected to my computer via usb.
    It would be highly practical to control my music from there, since it is charging right by my side while I'm at my computer.
    Remote is not really an option, my computer doesn't have bluetooth or any connectivity. Something over wifi would work, but there's a usb connection right there that's begging to be used.
    Thanks

    You can't do it via USB.  Go to the App store and download/install the Apple Remote app.  It can control iTunes on your computer via wifi.

  • Samsung Fascinate, problems with playing music via USB port on car stereo

    Before the update, I could play the music files on my Fascinate via the USB port on my Kenwood stereo, and control basic functions such as skip, pause etc.  Now, my stereo does not recognize the device, and cannot read the files.  I went to local Verizon store where a sales rep tried to connect it in here new Kia Soul and it didn't recognize the device either. It will play via the AUX jack, but I lose player control and the phone does not charge via the AUX cable.  She did a hard reset which did not resolve the problem.  We tried one of the other employee's Fascinate in my car, which did not work either.
    So, after hoping to be able to stream music via Pandora, Jango etc thru the USB port after the update, now it seems its primary function is for charging.
    Also, the ALL SHARE function, which I used to get the music on my phone originally, does not work now.
    Anyone else have this issue with music player and USB connection?

    txgopher- I have personally never used my Fascinate to listen to music via USB via stereo however, I can see why it would be frustrating for you to no longer be able to do so when it was never an issue prior to the update.
    It sounds as though you and the store rep already did some troubleshooting by trying to duplicate the problem with another car, stereo and even doing the final troubleshooting step which is a master reset.
    Since you have done all of the necessary troubleshooting steps to no avail, it most definitely appears as though the software update has interfered with that USB connection in some way.
    What I have done is forwarded the information you have provided to Samsung in order for them to look into this concern as well as come up with a way to get this resolved.
    Please stay tuned because as soon as we hear back from Samsung we will be sure to update this forum with the results/findings.

    Any one or a combo may help
    Give your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home  keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and try again.
    Try a different USB cord
    Try a different USB port
    Try rebooting your computer
    Try closing/opening iTunes.
    If you go through that and it doesn't work, try going into the control panel, add/remove programs. Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support. Then redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again

  • IPAD connected via USB does not show in Windows

    PC Specs : HP ProBook Windows 7 Professional 64 SP1 32 bit 4GB RAM 320GB HDD, Kaspersky ES 10.
    I have a client with an iPhone which he connects to his laptop via the iPhone USB cable. He used to copy pictures from the device onto his laptop. Today that does not want to work any more for some reason. If he connects it, it simply does not even detect in
    Windows. It doesn't even charge ! Before Windows, in the BIOS , there it charges. In Windows, in the device manager it does not even show anywhere. Also, it does make a one-time-connected-system-sound, when it is plugged in but that's all. In device manager,
    there is no alert, no exclamation or error.
    What was tried so far :
    1.) Disabling anti-virus.
    2.) Removing Upper Filter in HKLM/S/CCS/C/Class/[ID] for USB devices of Kaspersky driver association.
    3.) Testing the iPad and the USB cable on other machines : Cable works fine.
    What I still need to try :
    1.) Installing Apple Mobile Device Drivers
    What I do not want to do :
    1.) Re-install Windows
    2.) System Restore (restore points are very old, so unit will use many settings and programs if I do a restore).
    What else might I try to get this working ?

    Thanks for the responses !
    @Milos Puchta :
    No things I can see regarding the issue in the Event Logs. Updates were installed on the 15/08/2014... Maybe you can tell me which ones were problematic so I can see if they are installed (There are a lot). Maybe one of them was the culprit with other people
    ... a known update that was known to cause this
    @SenneVL :
    The USB are working perfectly. I tested my own USB drive, a USB hard drive, mouse etc and they work wonderful without issues. I must note that some or all of them also have the Upper filter installed. I installed ITunes (which comes with Apple Mobile Device
    Driver) and confirmed the service is running. I will post on the Apple Forums too... when I do get time.
    I checked with a resource monitor. If I connect the iPhone via USB, it throws out this (amongst million others) :

  • Mac Formatted Time Capsule w/ PC Formatted External Drive Via USB?

    I use a Mac-formatted Time Capsule to run Time Machine backups on my MacBook Pro.  My wife backs up her PC laptop on a PC-formatted Western Digital "My Book" hard drive which is powered via A/C wall adapter.  I connected the Western Digital PC drive to the Time Capsule via USB so it would be available on our home network and my wife could run her PC backups wirelessly, BUT the drive is not showing up on our network.  Anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance!

    My questions continue below in red.  Thank you for your patience.

    Thanks for the in depth clarification.  A few follow up questions:
    1) Are you saying that even though I am only using the TC (in this instance) to make the windows drive available on the network, the drive still needs to be formatted in HFS+?
    HFS+ or FAT32.. the later having severe issues with large disk and large files.
    Great.  I'll do HFS+
    2) If I format the windows drive in HFS+, will the windows laptop be immediately able to write/read to it over the network?  Or will I have to install some sort of program on the windows laptop that allows windows to read/write to HFS+ (which I've always undewrstood to be a mac only format)?
    The format of the disk connected to a NAS is totally irrelevant.. if it offers windows networking file protocol.. ie SMB then it can store files on the hard disk.. it is just like sharing the disk in the Mac.. you can write to that directly from the PC. Try it.. The disk is controlled by the Mac. But it presents SMB to the Network.. On your Mac, go to system preferences.. sharing.. it should be in Internet and wireless.. but on Lion I have no idea. Open file sharing which should be ticked..there should be a public folder by default.. you can add others.. go to options, turn on SMB.. then from the windows computer you should see the disk available in networking. If not fix the names to SMB standard.. you will need to do this on the TC as well.. short, no spaces.. pure alphanumeric names. Copy some files from windows to your Mac.. you have now copied to a network drive.. with the drive format totally irrelevant to your windows computer.
    I'm sorry, but I don't know what "windows networking file protocol" and "SMB" mean.  Also, when you say "NAS" are you referring to the Time Capsule or another device?  Can you please explain things like "The disk is controlled by the Mac but it presents SMB to the network" in a less advanced way.  Pretend I'm a child.  You won't be far off.  It seems like this technique you're explaining is a way for the windows PC to write to the external drive via my MacBook.  Is that even close to correct?  The setup I must create needs to work regardless if macbook is on/off/out of the house.
    3) Does plugging a USB drive into the TC never work properly or is this just a semi-common problem that happens sometimes?  My odds of success will probably dictate whether I try this or not.  I already own the windows USB drive and would like to avoid buying more hardware if possible.
    It is problematic enough that I recommend you try it before committing to it. Even if you have to copy the files off to another location and then reformat the drive. Test it for a couple of days.. the issue happens especially when you are using Lion.. but will also happen with windows. Especially when the disk spins down it will not spin up again and become available to the network.
    Got it.
    4) What do you mean by files being in "native format"?  And what does a dead TC have to do with whether or not they can be recovered to the windows laptop?  If the TC dies, can't I just plug the windows USB drive directly into the windows laptop and it will be the same thing as connecting the drive and laptop via network?  How does a dead TC make things more difficult?
    Thanks for your continued help.
    HFS+ is not windows native format... so files stored by the TC on the USB drive.. when the TC dies.. they all die eventually may be difficult to recover unless you plug it into another TC.. as the PC cannot natively read them. If you format FAT32 then the windows computer can read it.. just there are other issues. eg the disk can be slow.. very slow and it has far less protection. eg a power failure can corrupt the drive.. this was an issue before we moved in windows to NTFS.
    Why do you say "files stored BY THE TC on the USB drive"  Why is the TC storing files on the USB drive?  Isn't plugging the USB into the TC just making the USB available on the network to my windows laptop?  Why is the TC storing files?
