Dot net dll and touch panel module

Hi all,
Is there any possibility to use a dot net dll with the touch panel module on LabView 2011?
Thanks in advance...

This appears to be related to this:http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/call-dll-function-on-Windows-CE6-0-Device/m-p/2092170
Since you already know that the device would be running Windows CE or Windows Embedded Standard, the question is really can Windws CE or Windows Embedded Standard use .NET? Not sure why you are asking this on a National Instruments forum, since it's a Windows question. I do know that .NET compact is available. Have no idea how well it works.

Difference between LV PDA module and touch-panel module

What is the difference between LabView's PDA module and touch-panel module? I want to recompile my application developed on a Win XP environment for a touch-screen single board computer running Win CE. From what I have read, it seems like both PDA module and the touch-panel module would be able to do the task - but what is the difference between the two modules?

sstolteq:
The LabVIEW PDA Module allows you to create applications that run on Microsoft Windows Mobile for Pocket PC devices. It is also compatible with several NI data acquisitions devices, including the USB-6008, USB-6009, CF-6004,
DAQCard-6062E, DAQCard-6024E, and the DAQCard-6036E.
The LabVIEW Touch Panel Module, on the other side, allows you to create human-machine interface (HMI) applications to
communicate with NI embedded real-time platforms such as Compact
FieldPoint, CompactRIO, and Compact Vision System. It is optimized for developing
HMIs to Windows CE touch panel devices such as the NI TPC-2006.
I hope this helps and please let me know if I can help further.

Set column width of a multicolumn listbox in LV touch panel module

Hello,
I am trying to build an application using LV Touch panel module 8.6 and I am having a problem with multicolumn listboxes. I am setting the the width of the columns by clicking and dragging the separator between the headers, but when I transfer and run my application to a winCE controller the width of the columns is the same for all columns (and very narrow actually).
Does anyone know something about it?
I also noticed the following two problems. When I transfer my application in the winCE controller, the line and column separators are disappeared and the column headers are also disappeared, although I have set them to be visible in my vi.
Thanks in advance.

The issues that you are having are because the LV touch
panel Module does not support "Moveable column separators" and
"Row and column headers". The limitations of using a touch panel are available
in the LabVIEW help file.
A possible workaround may be to use a series of arrays with a string data
type then using a single scrollbar control multiple property nodes.
I have attached an example.
I hope this has helped.

Using Color Box controls in Touch Panel Module

Hello,
I am attempting to change the background color of my touchscreen panel (tpc-2006) when a certain value increases past 5. I have successfullly done this using color box controls, but Labview will not allow me to deploy it to the touch panel. I am guessing color box controls simply do not work with the touch panel module. Am I wrong about this, or is there another way to change the color of the screen?
Attached are the VI and the lvproj files. The color changing works fine if the VI is open only. Errors result if the lvproj file is used, because it specifies that the VI gets deployed to a touch panel.
I am using Labview 8.5, with the Touch Panel Module 8.5, on Win XP.
Thanks!

Thank you, tst.
I tried your solution using the select control and writing directly to the color box. This works great on my desktop, and it even deploys to the TPC.
However, it does not work at all on the touch-panel. The screen remains black and does not change.
Any other ideas?

Labview Touch Panel Module can support Samsung S3C2440 cpu in wince ?

labview Touch Panel Module can support Samsung S3C2440 cpu in wince ？

Hi Mohammed,
Windows CE 6.0 is not officially supported by the Touch Panel Module (see this link for more info and what is supported). Other members on our forums (link) have tried working with CE 6.0 but since it isn't officially supported and you're still in the planning stage of your application, it might be better to choose a HMI that is directly supported.

Menu Position on TPC-2012 (LabVIEW Touch Panel Module)

Hi
Windows CE on the TPC 2012 places the menu on the top but the LabVIEW Touch Panel Module 8.2.1 places it at the bottom. I would expect that LabVIEW handles that the same way than the operating system?

LabVIEW Touch Panel Module for Linux

Hi,
Does NI released Touch Panel Module for Linux?
Thanks,
Ali

Hi Dennis,
Here is the article I read about LabVIEW Embedded Development Module. Page 1-1, "Taking Your Graphical Design to Any 32-Bit Microprocessor".
http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/371233b.pdf
About the topic you are right. I have the VI on Windows XP. I converted it to WinCE 5.0 with LabVIEW Touch Panel Module and it works perfectly. I have LabVIEW for Linux and I converted the VI to Linux and it works on PC. Now, I want to convert it to Embedded Linux that works on ARM microcontroller.
I am looking for LabVIEW Touch Panel Module for Linux because the only supported platform for that is Windows.

Touch Panel Module or LabVIEW SDK

Hello,
We can use Touch panel module to target Windows CE Boards and LabVIEW SDK to target any 32bit Processor boards (includes Linux Boards). Which one is better for embedded development?
SDK is very expensive and probably hard to program than a Windows CE board. Can anyone please let me know the best approach? Please let me know if Linux is better or Windows CE. I am looking to program any off the shelf I/O board which supports Windows CE or Linux, but want to get some guidance regarding the approach towards the LabVIEW software module and the Embedded OS approach before spending time.
Thanks.

While the Touch Panel Module can technically connect to most Windows CE devices, it is actually made specifically for our NI Touch Panel devices. Because of this, it is not supported for other devices and you may have unexpected behavior. Your better bet (if possible) is to use Windows Mobile 6 on your device and then use the LabVIEW Mobile Module. Also, I'm not sure how flexible your embedded solution is, but you also have the option to use the LabVIEW Embedded Module for ARM controllers.

Controller and Touch Panel having slow communication over network

I'm using a cFP-2100 and a Touch Panel CE 4.2 Device, and they're communicating over my company's network via an ethernet switch. The controller and touch panel are in constant communication, since the touch panel reflects the current status of the VI using network-published shared variables. However, when I make a selection on the touch panel, it can take a LONG time to register at the controller. Is there any way I can speed this up? Does anyone know what might be causing the long lag times?
Thanks,
Eric

Hello Eric,
How long are we talking here? What sort of traffic do you have on your work network? If you connect the two of these to a switch on an isolated connection do you still see a significant amount of lag time between updates.

Touch panel module

I have a host application (.exe) running on a desktop that interfaces with my cRIO via Network Variables. I want to move this host application to a touch panel, either one of NI's panels or a third party. Why would I need to purchase the Touch Panel Module to support my host application on a touch panel running XPe? Can't I build a distributable executable to deploy to the touch panel?

Hey,
I don't completely agree with royalcow. Please have a look at the article Running LabVIEW on Windows XP Embedded.
The article says:
NOTE: Using LabVIEW with Windows XP Embedded is unsupported. The exceptions are, Windows XP Embedded is supported for use with the LabVIEW Touch Panel Module.
royalcow is right that when using a NI Touchpanel you will need the LabVIEW TouchPanel Modul to have the appropriate target in your lvproj.
Because of that I was asking what kind of Touchpanel you are using.
LabVIEW is not supported for Windows XP Embedded, this is a fact.
Thanks,
Christian

Parallel use remote control and touch panel.

Using a Meter control in LV Touch Panel, and using shared variables that are custom controls.

I Just started using LV touch Panel module with an NI TPC-2106.
I have two differenct problems:
1) I was planning on using the "Meter" control quite a bit. I can set up the meter exactly how I like on the host PC, but on the touch Panel computer it seems to ignore my adjustments, mainly the start and end of the scale - i.e. I would like control to run from 0 to 360 with 0 straight up, using the entire circle. However, on the Touch panel computer it always puts 0 at about 7 o'clock and 360 at about 5 o'clock. I have also tried adding markers to no avail.
2) I am communicating with a compact fieldpoint controller. I can creat a shared variable that is a simple double with no problems. However, I have some shared variables that use a custom control for the variable type - bascially a cluster with a couble doubles, a time stamp, and an enumeration. It lets me drag the shared variable into my diagram, but it seems to ignore it when I run it.

Ipshita_C,
- I am using LV 8.6.1f1and LV Touch Panel 8.6.1.
- I have attached a simplified VI that shows how I want to use the meter. Notice that the placement of the endpoitns does not work correctly on the touch panel, and that it ignores the arbitrary markers that I placed.
- I also have included an XY graph control that displays on the TPC with margins around the graph area that I removed from the graph control.
- For the shared variable, it appears to be an issue related to the touch panel, not fieldpoint. I found another thread in this forum that mentioned that clusters containing Enumerations do not work in shared variables on the touch panel. I changed the enumeration to an integer and it now works fine.
In general, there seem to be a disappointing number of limitations in the touch panel implementation. My biggest concern is that I have not found any documentation from NI that lists these limitations. I seem to have to try things out and see what works and what does not work. Can you point me to a comprehensive list of touch panel modules limitations?

LabVIEW Touch Panel -- I can not get activesync to connect between the TPC-2012 and my XP workstation. There is no USB client connection on TPC-2012

How do I get the TPC-2012 to connect to my workstation? I have read all the hardware manuals, getting started manuals: nothing works. The remote access using http://x.x.x.x/RemoteAdmin does not work. I have tried to get the FTP service working using the instructions in "How do I configure the FTP server on tpc-2006 and TPC-2016" . Active sync seems to want a USB connection only. I have tried to connect a serial line between com1 on the TPC and com4 on my XP workstation with no results.
I have been able to use the touch panel module with my iPAQ. It worked flawlessly the first time.
Help!

Hi David,
thank you once again for your help.
So when viewing your Local Area Connection>>Status
you're seeing data packets sent but no packets received on your desktop
machine? - Yes
Is your desktop configured with a static IP address or is it
configured to obtain an IP address automatically?I' ve tried both static IP address and that it obtain IP address automatically, I have also done it with the TPC.
Also, does your TPC
get a valid IP address when the connection to your desktop is present? - when TPC is set to obtain adress automatically it gets IP address and then after some time it loses it - it is set to 0.0.0.0, and then it obtains the IP adress again and so on.
Can you provide the address, subnet, and gateway you're getting for
both machines?- I've done it, but it didn'e help
Also any firewall settings or exceptions you may have
active if the firewall is enabled? - firewall is disabled
I'd also like to know what
modules and toolkits you do have installed on both the TPC - TPC is new and I haven't installed there anything.
On my desktop - I have standard Labview 8.2,the real time module is installed. All I know, there are already drivers for TPC2012 in this LabView version. On the included CD I have only drivers for another TPCs.
Thanks,
Martin
