Converting from an older version of LabView

I have VIs written in Labview 3.0 that I would like to convert to 6.1. Does anyone know of any software that will do this? Thanks!

  • Identifying and Converting from an older version of LabVIEW

    I have an old .vi program that I am trying to access and run now. I don't know what version of LabView it was written in but I do know it came off of a Windows 95 computer.
    Any Suggestions?

    You said "trying to". Does that mean you've been unsuccessful? On what OS are you trying to run it?
    When you open an old VI in a newer version of LabVIEW, if the VI isn't too old, then it will open. If you close the VI you'll get a dialog asking you to save it. The "explain changes" will tell you the version of LabVIEW used to write the VI.
    If you cannot open the VI because it's too old, and your LabVIEW is too new (e.g., opening a LabVIEW 5.x VI with LV2011), then you can post a request in the Version Conversion board. If the code is really old (e.g., LabVIEW 3.x or earlier), chances are you will not be able to get it upconverted since versions that old require a special toolkit from NI that is not publicly available.

  • Open Pages documents from an older version

    I need to open Pages documents from an older version of Pages that I saved to an external drive from a computer that I no longer have access to.  My current operating system is 10.7.5 and I can't upgrade it right now.  I see that Pages 5.0 requires 10.10 or higher and I can't find older versions to download and from what I've read, it doesn't sound like I'd be able to open the old documents with the new version anyway.  I really need these documents. What can I do?

    I found it helpful to convert all my old Pages '08 files to .doc files.  They can be opened by the new version of Pages.
    Since the new version of Pages is no longer back compatible, and so not good for anything you want to keep for a long time, you might consider using an open source word processing application like Libra Office.  That's what I had to do.  After seven years of being a happy Pages user - archiving thousands of files in Pages -Apple has abandoned us.  I no longer think it is wise to use the new Pages and then five years down the road (or sooner) not to be able to open them in a newer version.
    If you would like a quick way to convert your Pages '08 files to .doc, let me know.

  • Is Acrobat Pro right for us. We have an Employee Handbook that needs editing. Some is current pdf, some from an older version. Want to get all into one handbook, have the table of contents automatically adjust and link to specific pages from the ToC.

    You can download the trial version (http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html) to convert the PDF back to WORD if you do not have the original. The conversion may not be perfect, but it is typically better than starting from scratch. You may be lucky and get a good result. You might check the settings (in the save screen) to try retain format versus retain text flow. The format version can be a pain to edit since it creates a bunch of text boxes. The flow version may require you to reformat in WORD, but you likely would want to do that anyway.

  • Event structures in older versions of labview?

    Can anyone tell me how to create a workaround for a 'value change' event structure in an older version of labview?  I have a student  version of LabVIEW 6i and need to create a queued buffer from each value change.  Thank you.

    James.Morris wrote:
    Ah, you're only one release away from the event structure. That's too bad.
    You're going to have to implement a Polling loop that continuously checks the user inputs. Make sure you add a Wait function to the loop (~100ms) because that will act as your chance for the user to make changes. You can use shift register(s) to keep the previous loop's values and compare to get a bunch of Value Change booleans. If you want a specific case for the specific events, then you can group all of your Value Changes in to an array and act upon the ones that are True via a Case Structure.
    The Event Structure only pulls a single event per loop and has a queue of events to handle for following loops. You might encounter multiple value changes in a single loop if the user clicks fast enough, or you trigger value changes. To avoid losing the trailing events, you should probably have a For loop within the Polling loop that handles all True values. Either that, or have a consumer loop that handles all of your events.
    James, I swear I'm not picking on you today
    You can set the maximum number of events alowed in the event queue per event in the edit event dialog box.  Check box and int fields in the lower right side.
    6.i didn't have a "Value (Signaling)" property- (a subject of some CLAD exam questions not that you suggested it)
    Student editions could not use 6.i events.  From 7.0 or 7.1 through 2011 Student Edition could use but not edit event structures. 2012 and on Event Structures are available in "All Versions" of LabVIEW- at the time.  I haven't looked into the newer license options.
    On to licensing options. (Not a lawyer! consult your Legal Dept!)
    If you are not doing work towards earning a educational certificate you should not be using Student Edition.  And, in some cases (Like working on a student project with commercial investment) not even then!
    The Home Edition is also a new option.  It is intended to enable fast "Proof of Concept" development or development for your sole non-comercial use.
    LabVIEW Full and Professional are for comercial use and have a "Home Use License Agreement" clause attached. If your company owns a LabVIEW License you CAN install a copy on a "Home PC" for the limited use of aiding your employer (who paid for the license) such things would arguably enclude "Training"
    NI is not totally opposed to negotiating "Exceptional" agreements for mutually beneficial reasons.  Youl'd better bring a justification better than "I can't afford it"  Go find some investors and buy a license in that case.  And Yes, until the moderators take this down, I did at one time have a LabVIEW license for exclusively engaging the LabVIEW Community (Forums and NI Sponsored events use only- LAVA was not encluded)  I'm not sure if such a deal could be negotiated in the future.  In Fact, The Home Edition would have been less costly.
     

  • Installing older versions of labview after newer versions.

    I Just installed LV 8.5 (dev suite) on clean machine.
    Notice that 8.5 will not read LV 5.0 VIs.
    I Would therefore like to install LV 7.0 (dev suite) (over the 8.5 installation).
    Any known issues?

    Moreover, you may encounter problems with the run-time engine when you build the EXE of LV7.0 code & try to run it in the same PC. It may/will say that the application requires an old run-time engine to be installed to get it running.
    Always it is better to install from an older version to a latest version.

    I had to erase my data to upgrade my iPhone software from an older version. I backed up first, but seem to have lost all my notes.   Does anyone know how retrieve my old notes?

    Is this the note you are referring to:
    Not sure if this can help you.
    I checked my notes. They are stored here:
    MacintosHD/Users/MYHOME/Library/Containers/com.apple.notes/Data/Library/CoreData /ExternalRecords/
    xxxxxserie.of.numbers.probably.yours.are.different/IMAPNote/_records/0/
    If I go tot this window on finder and enter Time Machine I can go back and find old notes...
    If so, am I doing this on my new hard drive on on the time machine? When I do this on the time machine, what is "my home"? Also, I am unable to find "containers".
    If I go to users/jeff/library, then I see components, compositions, contextual, etc, but not containers.
    Thanks

  • How can I access Address Book data from an older version of the application to transfer it to a newer version of Mac OS running on a second hard drive on the same MDD G4?

    I installed a hard drive from one PowerPC Dual 1.25 GHz MDD into another one with an older version of the OS X.  all my Address Book data are on the older hard drive, from which I now boot the computer.  When I launch Address Book as an app on the hard drive with the newer version of the OS, I get an error message that says I cannot run the version of Address Book from the older hard drive on the newer OS.  How can I access the data on the older hard drive version of the Address Book app so that I can transfer it to the newer version of the app on the boot drive?  The "Import" functionality will not work. I will be grateful for any help I can get.  I would also like to uninstall the older version of OS X from the older hard drive.

    Boot from the older version of OSX, then in AB use the File>Export>Export vCard after selecting all in AB.
    Then boot from the new OSx & use the new AB to import that VCF file.

  • How do I migrate books from an older version of ADE on an old computer to a newer version of ADE on a newer computer?

    I have installed various versions of Adobe Digital Edition on a new computer.  The program says it detects books from an older version (which is correct, I copied "my digital editions" from an older computer to a new computer), and asks if I wish to migrate them to the new version.  I say yes, the program tells me the migration is successful, but I cannot see the old books in the library.  How do I get them to show up in the library of the new version of ADE?

    Well, you didn't give any information on your Mac, your OS version, transfer pics from where to where, or anything else, so guessing is the best anyone can do at this point: you should be able to simply using drag and drop.

    I think perhaps 8.6 and 8.6.1 is compatible. But I am 100% sure that 2009 and 8.6.(1) is not downwards compatible
    Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted
