DAQ and Labview on different partitions

Hello,
I installed DAQmx (8.9) on a  C partition and Labview (8.6) on a D partiton  but LV does not see DAQmx ?
Is it the reason ?
I tried to edit the path the palette (I would have like to just replace the D by a C), in fact LV looks for in C:\Na......\menu.mnu.
I also tried to add a palette, but then a lot of VI are missing.
I also wanted to modify the labview.ini, but I was not able to recognize the path to the  palette tool.
To I tried to reinstall LV from the DVD and when it asks my for the driver, I tried my own installation, but the installer asks me
insert media for the driver. I do not have the media for 8.9 (the one on the media is 8.7.9 if I am correct), so I tried to
give it the path of the dowloaded file(NIDAQ890f1) as well as the path to the directory where I unzipped the dowloaded files,
but any of thoses paths are accepatble for the LV Installer.
Is it not possible to have a separated installation of DAQ and LV ?
Thank

Hi pdupre,
i never tried to install it on different pations, but in which order did you install it? You first have to install LabVIEW and then the Driver.
Hope it helps.

  • Bootcamp and OSX showing different Partitions

    I had just restored from a backed up system image of Bootcamp. Previously, my bootcamp partition size was about 120+gig and my osx had everything else of 750g. Before I did a system restore, I removed Windows 7 using bootcamp assistant and then created a new one with 450g for bootcamp and 250+g for osx. I installed windows 7 like how I did before and did a system image restore when it was done. Now on the system recovery screen it asked to exclude disk for partition and I tried to exclude my single drive but I got an error saying I can't exclude the disk that backup was going to use so I just continued without excluding it.
    I got to restore without any problems but when I opened "My Computer" I saw that the disk size was from my old bootcamp. When I checked OSX it was showing that the partition of 450g and 250g were intact except that the bootcamp drive is now "Untitled" rather than it saying Bootcamp.
    Here's the link to the screenshots:

    Windows:

    IMPORTANT:
    When I was browsing from OSX to my bootcamp drive, I found out that the files on the drive were from the fresh install. There was no hint that I had restored my old system.
    Logging in my Windows to post the screenshot of Disk Management.

    It more like I don't know the process to resolve it. I have a back up of osx and windows image, Winclone only allows its own backup unless theres a way to include my winows image on their options. Once that's resolve I can probably buy camptune or just use Winclones method.
    I had already bought winclone and I have already sent them an email regarding the issue of my windows image.
    The different partitions on both OS is really boggling me though, and what makes it even more complicated is that the "Untitled" partition in Mountain Lion shows the contents of a fresh install not currently bootable and working windows.

  • NI-6602 Two Channel Frequency Measuremen​t using Traditiona​l NI-DAQ and LabView 8.2

    I have been trying to program for some new experiments and have a vi setup to record the time-of-arrival for a signal using buffered event counting on two channels.  We really wanted to be able to measure the frequency of the incoming photons on both channels and thought we could just make a sub vi using simple event counting and count the number of rising edges on a source pin for a second and report that number and repeat the measurement until we were done..
    All of our vi's have to be programed using the Traditional NI-DAQ drivers as the NI-DAQmx drivers do not play well with the FIFO overwrites on the 6602 card that occasionally occur in our measurements (high instantaneous count rates from bursts of photons).  The way other groups using the 6602 card and labview have dealt with this is to ignore the error that come from the Read Buffer.vi used with the Traditional NI-DAQ drivers when a FIFO overwrite occurs.  Trying this same technique with the NI-DAQmx drivers has not worked so we are stuck with the old drivers.
    With this all said I made a vi that counted the freqency on one counter just fine but when I adapted it for two channels it doesn't like me anymore
    I attached the llb file and any comments would be greatly appreciated

    Hello Sprice,
    Browse the shipping examples according to “Directory Structure” and then select
    DAQ to find the Traditional DAQ examples. 
    There a lot of examples that are written for counters (Counter >>
    daq-stc.llb >> Count Edges (DAQ-STC).vi). 
    What kind of signals are your photons creating?  Are they TTL compatible at a certain
    frequency?  You don’t care about overwriting
    your buffer?

  • Resource and Scheduler from different partitions

    Hi All,
    I met an impossibility when I try to affect a resource that is from a distinct partition than the scheduler (I want to attach to): the listbox of partition choice is limited to 'SYSJCS' in Scheduler window form.
    That might be related to any right and privileges, but I cannot find the ones that are involved.
    Can someone help me ?
    Thanks,
    Yi Jiang

    Hello Anton,
    I am using the user SYSJCS. Your remark is relevant but I can see both the objects (schedulers and resources whatever the partition they belong to) and partitions.
    Maybe there is something to do with the privileges of my second partition (which is not associated to an Redwood user).

  • NI-DAQ and LabVIEW

    I am having a hard time convincing myself that there is any value in the generic
    DAQ functions available in LabVIEW when it is desired to have software reusability/compatibility
    with possibly non-NI hardware. It seems to me that I would be much better
    off writing code to talk to ActiveX drivers. Am I missing something?

    For interchangable HW, or the ability to shift between HW, then
    what you want is a common interface -- sets of VIs that have common
    connectors and common functionality. Below this set of VIs, they
    can call a DLL, a CIN, they can call peek and poke, or they can
    call an ActiveX server, OPC server, TCP to an ethernet device, or
    whatever you like. ActiveX doesn't magically make components
    interchangeable unless they have a common interface. LV is pretty
    much the same. With the VIs, it isn't too difficult to shift
    between them.
    The most common interface for doing DAQ with LV are the NI-DAQ
    icons. They have shipped for a long time and support a wide
    range of boards including different busses, remote DAQ, etc.
    There is at least one other company that makes a driver that
    uses this interface. They have VIs that look and act the same.
    That means changing your program between these two vendors is
    pretty easy. Other vendors share some common functions, but
    are not complete. Then you have the vendors that only have DLL
    or an ActiveX server for their driver. This may be great for
    you, but I suspect it will be considerably harder to use from
    LV. You will end up writing the layer of VIs to go between the
    DLL and C types or the ActiveX server and OLE types to LV types.
    You will be the one to write it instead of the vendor.
    As I said, it is possible to call DLLs, ActiveX servers, talk
    to serial, GPIB, ethernet, and register based devices without
    any vendor supplied VIs, but the easiest way to have functionality
    in LV is to wrap them in VIs. Give them help, good icons, good
    parameters, and place them logically in a palette.
    So, in my opinion, the best interface to choose is the highest
    level one that can accomplish your task. The one that is widely
    used and has a good history. I'd recommend that you go with NI-
    DAQ.
    Of course you need to remember that I work for NI; so you
    can do whatever you like with my advice.

  • Can I use Snow Leopard and Leopard on different partitions?

    My new MacBook Pro did not include a Snow Leopard installation disk, and I desperately need to use Boot Camp to install Windows asap. I do have my old Leopard disk. Will using the previous OS with Boot Camp cause a cat fight that will produce problems, or should I suffer the serious inconvenience of waiting until I can get a SL disk?
    Thanks.

    Cat fight will ensue.
    Order replacement installer disks from Apple as it includes the free iLife that comes with a new Mac.
    The $29 Snow Leopard retail disk does not. However it's possbile to install Leopard from the installer disks then upgrade to Snow Leopard, thus getting your iLife.

  • Old version Ni daq and labview.

    I was given this
    http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/1041
    I simply want to understand the document in this link "http://sine.ni.com/psp/app/doc/p/id/psp-42/lang/en" It gives abbreviations for the pins and I don't understand anything. I just want to pass up a simple digital input and output. The examples online are referring to the newest model ni-daqmx. It sound simple and it should be. 

    National Instruments does not recommend this device.
    Consider the NI PCIe-6341 X Series device for new systems.
    Right off your link.  Not much to understand here.  You have been given obsolete equipment.  UPGRADE the hardware to keep your hair from turning grey and falling out.

  • How do I run a J-type thermocouple to the usb-6363 DAQ and program labview to measure temperature?

    I have a usb-6363 DAQ and a J-type non-contact thermocouple that I am looking to connect and measure temperature through. However, the DAQ does not have any T/C inputs, which is needed to measure in the thermocouple temperature. I am connecting the thermouple to an analog input (+/-) and I am not looking to buy an amplifier, converter or any other hardware. I believe there is a way to program labview to read in the voltages of the thermocouple and convert it into accurate temperature readings. Any help/ideas?

    Hello George,
    This tutorial should step you through the basic process of configuring the device and connecting the thermocouple:
    Tutorial: Connect Thermocouples to a Data Acquisition (DAQ) Device
    http://www.ni.com/gettingstarted/setuphardware/dataacquisition/thermocouples.htm#Connecting a Thermocouple to Your Device
    From there, there are a number of things you can do- I'd recommend taking a look at the LabVIEW shipping examples (Help>>Find Examples...) as well as the DAQmx getting started tutorials:
    Getting Started with NI-DAQmx: Main Page
    http://www.ni.com/white-paper/5434/en
    At first glance, the 6363 you're using should have enough resolution to acquire usable data from a thermocouple- if you attempt reading raw voltages be sure that the acquisition range is configured for +/- 0.1V, though.
    Regards,
    Tom L.

  • OS X Maverick and OS X 10.4 on different partition

    My iMac came with OS 10.6.8. I have upgraded it to Maverick. I would like to partition the harddisk and install OS X 10.4. and maintain Maverick in another. Is it compatible ?
    I did find lots of suggestion that it is almost impossible to downgrade to the version lower than the bundled one. But my idea is to maintain new one and install an very old one, but on different partitions.

  • Different results from MAX and Labview

    Hi all,
    We did an impact testing a couple of days ago, and I got very big acceleration (the peak is about 300g, which is much larger than the estimated value).
    And then I tried a small imact test in the lab using a steel plate which is less than 1 lb to impact a steel ruler, I still got big peak number (more than 200g, which is impossible). And then I tried the small impact test again by using MAX, the peak number is about 12g, and the curve seems like pretty reasonable. I was wondering why I got different results by using MAX and Labview?
    Also, sometimes when I connect the SCXI-1001 to the computer, it says the USB is malfuntion and cannot be recgonized by the computer, and turns out the driver file does not exists. But most of the time, it works very well and the driver file does exists. Why this happened?
    Thanks.

    You can do that.  A task can only have the same types of inputs, meaning Analog Input, Analog Output, Digital Input, Digital Output, etc.  Different sensors are just read with Analog Inputs.  So they all can be in the same task.  In MAX, just set up a task a configure each channel as it should be.  Then use that single task in your LabVIEW code.

  • /tmp on different partition [quesiton on size and filesystem type]

    Hi,
    This is my partition schema (in mind, still have to apply and go ahead for the installation process)
    /home   xfs   
    /        ext4
    /var    reiserfs
    /tmp    ??
    /boot   ext2   primary
    windows   primary
    Now, I want also a primary partition for windows.
    The /tmp question is,
    what size and what filesystem should I choose during the partitioning procedure?
    The reason why on a different partition ?
    I use Lynis and want to get a higher score
    I never understood how to encrypt the hole thing during the installation, and I want to know also if it's good to install windows first and than linux? so the MBR gets overwrited or the opposite?

    I would use LVM on top of LUKS. The wiki will get you started in the right direction but mostly addresses putting everything on one encrypted partition (no LVM). Basically, you need to encrypt a partition with LUKS and then partition that encrypted partition with LVM.

  • Can I split Time Capsule drive for Windows7 files and Mac OS on different partitions?

    Planning to buy Time Capsule to backup my MacBook Pro. Can the drive be split into different partitions making one available for Windows 7 and the other partitions for Windows 7?

    Hi Niel,
    Thanks for your help. What I understand from your answer is that Time Capsule will be available to Windows7 only for disk images, but not file based and incremental backups. So no point/chance to split the drive. Did I understand you correctly?

  • How do I redirect  the "Documents" folder to a different partition?

    I have a separate data partition on my 10.5.1 MacBook and I want all my user data to live there. How do I redirect the "Documents", "Desktop" and "Downloads" folders to a different partition?

    As far as I know the desktop can't be assigned elsewhere. The others can be directed with the respective programs. I always keep my documents on another drive. I do it by using the saves as command and point to that directory. Then everything after that I can use there. For Downloads you just change it in preferences in Safari. Switch it in the *Save downloaded files to:* command.
