DAQmx support for Labview 8.0

I am having a problem with the current DAQmx Drivers,
The system used to run perfectly when using labview 8.0, however, after the installation of labview 2009
The DAQ library in the labview 8.0 folder is missing.
I tried to install the older version of the DAQmx (Legacy) but i still can't get the library back in labview 8.0 folder.
Would it possible to get those files ?
Thanks,

Hello again,
I tried to uninstall everything related to labview on the computer using msiblast, but still having the same problem, even after removing every labview newer than 8.0 files.
When I try to install DAQmx 8.6 it says a newer version is available.
I deleted the registry stuff to.
I had to keep labview 8.0 because it is the version i want to use plus i don't have the CD to install it, so i kept it and it's support files.
Can anyone send me the DAQmx library for labview 8.0?
Makesure it is the Vi files not the installation setup because that one will give me the same problem, " Newer Version is installed" problem.
Don't refer me to any extra links about installing, cuz honestly i have seen them all....
Thanks,

NI-DAQmx support for labview could not be found

Hi, I am pretty new to LabView. I was using VC++ to programming for my USB-6215. Just curious how LabView works, so I try to follow the "Introduction to Taking an NI-DAQmx measurement in LabView" and configure my USB-6215 in LabView. However, when I try to gererate codes for the DAQmx task name control, an error message pop up as "Error:NI-DAQmx support for labview could not be found. Please reinstall NI-DAQmx". I did reinstall NI-DAQmx, but it doesn't help. This error occurs anyway. Any idea how it happens and the solution is highly appreciated. Thank you.

DAQmx support for LabVIEW 2010

FYI to those downloading LabVIEW 2010 from NI web site:
After Installing LabVIEW 2010 (download from web site), I noticed that there is no support for DAQmx (i.e.. VI libraries) in NI_DeviceDrivers-February2010 DVD (my latest copy). Your have to download and install DAQmx 9.2 drivers (the first to include LabVIEW 2010 support).
Additionally, If you were using Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) 7.4.4 VIs in a prior version of LabVIEW, you must do one of the following:
      1. Uninstall current Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) 7.4.4 installation and re-install after completing LabVIEW 2010 installation.
          Reason: Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) installs support only for the latest version of LabVIEW found on the system.
Or
      2. Copy the the "<previous LabVIEW>\vi.lib\Daq" directory and all it contents to a new "<LabVIEW 2010\vi.lib\Daq directory. This way you can use Traditional NI-DAQ in both versions of LabVIEW.

I didn't have DVDs, I had to download.
Yes it was a mess. The device driver download took forever (NI can't help that). The installation took beyond forever (what else can be done?).
I was disappointed that I had to do all of this backing up of legacy folders and restoring them after installing the device drivers. Why does NI always have device drivers and toolkits install to the latest version of Labview only? Why couldn't they leave the legacy stuff alone?? I still use LV2009 and wanted to try LV2010. This involved a whole lot of trouble and time.
NI needs to provide a much easier way to upgrade, while still allowing previous versions to work without modification. Most people who upgrade will not completely abandon the older versions.

Installing the Latest Version of DataSocket and DataSocket Server
Problem:
I would like to download and install the current version of National Instruments DataSocket and/or DataSocket Server on my computer. Where can I find the latest version of this to download it from National Instruments' website?
Solution:
The latest release of the DataSocket libraries and the DataSocket Server is installed with the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine. Go to the Drivers and Updates web page at ni.com and search for "LabVIEW Run-Time Engine" and sort by Version to find the most recent version of the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine.

NI-DNET support for LabVIEW 2013

We are using currently NI-DNET 1.6.6 with LabVIEW 2011. I installed now also LabVIEW 2013 on my computer and tried to sync the set of drivers with my LabVIEW 2011 installation.
Well, it seems that NI-DNET doesn't support LabVIEW 2013, at least officially. The NI-DNET and LabVIEW Version Compatibility shows that NI-DNET 1.6.6 supports LabVIEW 2011 and NI-DNET 1.6.7 supports LabVIEW 2012.
The NI System Driver Set November 2013 list NI-DNET 1.6.7 as part of the driver set. When I try to install it, there is no LabVIEW 2013 support.
My question is actually, if there is a plan to include NI-DNET support for LabVIEW 2013 or later in the driver set?
I copied the vi.lib\DeviceNet and vi.lib\nidnet directories from LabVIEW 2011 to 2013 and I can load my programs without any problems. I still didn't build an executable and didn't run them on the test fixture, but the projects can be loaded in LabVIEW 2013 without any brocken VIs. Should I expect any problems running LabVIEW 2013 with the NI-DNET 1.6.6 or 1.6.7 driver?
Nick
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I would update our drivers right away, but unfortunately the NI-Industrial Communications for DeviceNet doesn't support the PCI-DNET cards. We have probably close to 30 of those in the test fixtures. So, we need to use the NI-DNET 1.6.x driver anyway.
It will be nice if the NI-DNET installer can copy the NI-DNET VIs and supporting files to any LabVIEW version, well maybe any 201x. I hope until 2020 we can replace the old cards :-)

Why are the NI-DAQmx Base for LabVIEW options grayed out using custom install (with Action:Skip)?

I'm trying to install NI-DAQmx Base 3.7.0 for LabVIEW 2013 (LV is installed). When I try Standard Install, it doesn't install for LabVIEW (only the Common and C and USB tools), but gives a successful installation message.
When I try Custom Install, all of the "...for LabVIEW 20XX" options are unchecked, grayed out and the Action says "Skip".
I'm trying this on a 2011 MacBook Air 11" running OS 10.9. LabVIEW runs fine.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
OS 10.9 is not officially supported by NI with the DAQmx Base 3.7. This information is from the description of the driver (http://www.ni.com/download/ni-daqmx-base-3.7/4272/en/):
OS Support—NI-DAQmx Base now supports the following versions of Mac OS X:
Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion)
Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion)
So this seems to the be the problem. Either you choose another OS version or wait for a new driver which supports 10.9

Usrp driver 1.3 do not support for Labview 2013 64 bit ??

Hello, dear all
Is anyone install the latest USRP driver 1.3 for LV 2013 64 bit ? I found there is no version for 64 bit LV 2013.

Currently the 1.3 driver supports only LabVIEW 2013 32 bit (even on 64 bit computers.)
The LabVIEW 2014 version will support 64 bit and will be available to download very soon.
Please check here within the next week or so: http://search.ni.com/nisearch/app/main/p/bot/no/ap/tech/lang/en/pg/1/sn/ssnav:drv/q/usrp/

Lenguage Conversion support for LabVIEW Linux

Hi,
Is it possible to switch from one lenguage to another based on user selection on LabVIEW Linux.
The developed code will have option to choose lenguage.. Based on the lenguage selection my application should convert its lenguage.
Is it possible in LabVIEW???
is there any specific function???
Kindly reply

Absolutely. There are lots of ways to do it. I see three basic options, though:
1. Use import/export strings as mentioned here.
2. Use property nodes to change all the captions and displayed text on your front panel. This would probably only be a good option for very small applications.
3. Use a third party tool like this. This one is way over-priced, in my opinion. But I thought I recalled seeing other third-party tools.

Scanner support for LabVIEW?

Just wondering if anyone knows of 3rd party scanners, NOT GPIB or
Serial, in other words USB or 1394 or any high speed scanners that have
drivers that will work with LabVIEW?
Thanks,

In cases like this, you should probably look
at using a generic TWAIN interface. It will
hide the bus and let you focus on getting the

What would be the veritool.zip replacement for LabVIEW 8.x. It isn't supported beyond 7

I have been told that veritool.zip isn't supported for LabVIEW 8.x. It had worked on 7 but is no longer supported. Any suggestions as to what to use for testing our LabVIEW code? We have upgraded to 8.20. Hoping someone out there can help me.

You may be able to update VeriTool by replacing the error handling VI's. The VI lib is rather small and worth taking a look at if you're in dire need.

ActiveX wrapper for Labview

Hello!
My name is Daniel. I'm from Argentina and I work in Tracnova S.A.
Tracnova is the Distributors of NI in Argentina.
I am having an issue with ActiveX development for wrapper an dll driver.
I have to read strain gage aquisition data from an USB device of MANTRACOURT (http://www.mantracourt.co.uk/products/wireless-telemetry).
The manufacturer provide an dll driver. It's shipped with example for VB6 that I have been testing and it works fine.
BUT I HAVE TO USE IT IN LABVIEW.
My first problem is that I have to provide an CALLBACK function pointer as parameter to "INITIALISE" function of the dll. Here is an excerpt from the
example that is shipped (Excerpt from a form module):
Private Sub Form_Load()
    'we will only handle base station addresses of 1
    iBaseAddress = 1
    Caption = Caption & " [DLL v" & VERSION & "]"
    CLOSEPORT
    'set the callback so we can receive data provider packets
    Init AddressOf CallBack ''''''----------------->>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> CALLBACK function pointer as parameter to "INITIALISE" (It defined as Init)
    'Open USB interface
    ok = OPENUSB
    If ok <> 0 Then
        ShowMessage "Cannot open USB interface!" & vbNewLine
    End If
End Sub
"CallBack" function is contained within .bas. Because You can only retrieve the address to a function or sub (public or private) contained within a
Standard VB Module. There's no way around this.
Here is an excerpt from the example that is shipped (excerpt from a Standard Module):
Sub CallBack(ByRef StringPtr As Long, Length As Long)
    Dim PBMsg As String, rc As Long, pEnd As Long
    Dim p(128) As Byte
    Dim cH As Byte
    Dim tID As Long
    Dim C As Integer
    On Error Resume Next
    CopyMemory p(0), ByVal StringPtr, Length
    PBMsg = Left$(StrConv(p(), vbUnicode), Length)
    'strip off the base station wrapper
    PBMsg = Mid$(PBMsg, 4, Len(PBMsg) - 5)
    If PBMsg <> "" Then
        Debug.Print CVStr2HEX(PBMsg)
        Select Case Asc(Mid$(PBMsg, 1, 1)) And &H1F
        Case PT_DATA_PROVIDER
            'pass data to the main form if we are not closing
            If Not Closing Then MainFrm.ShowMessage "DATA_PROVIDER Data Tag=" & Replace$(CVStr2HEX(Mid$(PBMsg, 2, 2)), " ", "") & " Data=" & Decode
(Mid$(PBMsg, 5, Len(PBMsg) - 6)) & vbNewLine
        End Select
    End If
End Sub
Then, when an data packet arrived, the driver call to "CallBack" function instead, so I can process it and do what I need.
But I can't pass pointer to function IN LABVIEW WITH "LOAD LIBRARY FUNCTION". So I did an ActiveX in VB6 for wrapping the dll of the driver. I attached the
files tha I did. The ActiveX sends an event to labVIEW everytime that a data packet arrived. I trigger an event inside the CallBack function that it's
not working, but if outside (look inside Iniciar() function where I wrote "This is the first event", the event trigger works.)
Why is not THE CALLBACK FUNCTION TRIGGERING THE EVENT INSIDE THE LABVIEW??
I also tried to make a Win32 DLL with C + + using PostLVUserEvent, but neither worked for me. I can send the code in C + + if you want to review.
Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks a lot nyc for your kind reply.
Yes, you are right. They have COM driver, but the event does not fire in labview. Also, this driver does not implement a COM circular buffer which means that if you delay reading and processing the data, these are lost because they are rewritten. I have been asking for support to MANTRACOURT, but after several attempts, they told me they do not provide support for labview only for VB, VBA excel, and some other more, not even C + +
National I miss to much. Nice technical support !
Please help, I need to fix this issue
Thanks a lot!

Installing NI-USRP for LabVIEW 2012

It's been a few months since LabVIEW 2012 was released. Is there a supported way to install NI-USRP support for LabVIEW 2012 or does a new installer of NI-USRP need to be released? As of right now, NI-USRP 1.1 is available and installs support up to LabVIEW 2011 but not LabVIEW 2012.
Thank you!

Dr Spaceman,
Generally we recommend that most people use the 32 bit version of LabVIEW unless they are planning on using our vision software. Many of our toolkits and modules only work with LabVIEW 32 bit. This article talks more about the difference between 32 bit and 64 bit. http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/71E9408E6DEAD76C8625760B006B6F98

UCalc Fast Math Parser for LabVIEW?

Several customers have been using the uCalc math parser product with LabVIEW. Recently one LabVIEW / uCalc user has attracted my attention to the fact that the new version of uCalc FMP is now harder to use with LabVIEW. Direct support for LabVIEW was never figured into the design of uCalc. It just so happened that the older uCalc version worked with it. Now, I’d like to figure out if there are enough potential uCalc FMP users to make it worth adding direct support for LabVIEW.
uCalc FMP lets you evaluate math expressions that are defined at runtime. You can define functions, operators, and variables, and use them in your formulas. The older version that is easier to use with LabVIEW can be found at www.ucalc.com/mathparser/ucfmp20.zip (you won’t find the old version in the current download page for now).
I myself have no experience with LabVIEW. However, with some 3rd party help, the user who contacted me recently was able to interface the new uCalc version with LabVIEW. Perhaps LabVIEW developers may want to weigh in. Might you be able to create an “official” uCalc FMP wrapper for the current version of uCalc, or give some tips on what it would take for me to do it?
Daniel Corbier
www.ucalc.com

In the previous DLL, I exported a series of functions such as an eval routine that returns the result of evaluating an expression, as in
ucEval("5+4")
which would return 9; a routine to define functions as in
ucDefineFunction("Area(length, width) = length * width")
or variables as in
ucDefineVariable("MyVar = 123")
plus a list of other routines.
The new version was completely redesigned. You can do a lot more. However, one exported function named uCalc() encapsulates most of the component's functionality. Instead of exporting many routines from the DLL, wrappers for routines like ucEval, ucDefineFunction, ucParse, etc., are defined in include files for the supported compilers. On the surface, things run roughly the same for the supported compilers, despite the changes under the hood. But apparently not so for LabVIEW.
ucDefineVariable for instance, which previously was directly exported from the uCalc DLL is now defined as follows in the include file for Visual Basic (classic):
Public Function ucDefineVariable(Definition As String, Optional ItemAddress As Long = 0, Optional ByVal t As Long = 0) As Long
   Dim ItemDef$
   ItemDef$ = "Var: " + Definition
   If ItemAddress Then ItemDef$ = ItemDef$ + " At " + Str$(ItemAddress)
   ucDefineVariable = uCalc(uc_Define, ItemDef$, 0, 0, 0, t)
End Function
By the way, what is the link to download the evaluation version of LabVIEW? I found links for the tutorial. And there's a "Test-Drive LabView" link that brings me to an online evaluation version.
