Eurotherm 2416 communication problem in LabView 8.5.1 via COM1

I have downloaded the latest version of a driver ET24xx v from NI site, and it is not working. I am getting Time out error from VISA. I think, the controlled is hooked up properly on my COM1 port. Visual Basic software is able to reach him and to communicate with the controller.
Please help.

Howdy Joe,
Several things can cause a VISA timeout. Improper message termination most frequently causes timeouts. Also, which VI in the E24xx driver package do you try to run that times out? After extracting the ET24XX driver to your labview\instr.lib directory, you should be able to access its examples by navigating to Instrument Drivers»ET24XX»Examples in the Functions palette. (Make sure to select the proper COM port on the example's front panel).
Going back to the issue of improper message termination--verify that each message you send to the instrument has a termination character such as \n, \r, \n\r, etc.
Let us know!
Warm regards,
pBerg

  • Eurotherm 2416 control problems!

    Hello
    I read a post that was make up for the forum NI on
    06/06/2003 in which speak of some of the drivers that had MODBUS and they were
    too big to post in the forum. The user is "mikeporter", I hope he or someone who read this message can help me and send the VI that was send to a member called "RMy" by email.
    If it is possible i apreciate because I am having problems in
    the control of a Eurotherm 2416. The site where it was posted this is http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=54044&query.id=23605#M54044.
    Manually I can work well with Eurother 2416, this
    applied to a furnace which I am trying to control temperature and that
    it has different kinds of temperatures (constant, increase, decrease ...)
    but through the series comunication that uses "et24xx"  library I can only
    read the temperatures.
    I
    would greatly if it were possible Mike or someone who now this

    You'll need to post your e-mail address in order for Mike to be able to send you the VI's.  Your e-mail address doesn't show up to other users in your profile.
    But DON"T just put it in the message.  You'll run the risk of getting spam.  Spell it out in a way so that Mike can recreate, but so that those spam webcrawlers can't snag it and start spamming you.

  • Fifo communication problem shifted data

    Hello,
    Currently,
    there is a communication between a laptop, equiped with a NI cardbus 8310,
    and a FPGA module controlling an industrial device.
    However, we have to transfer this program to a more efficient computer.
    The data transfered to the FPGA is sent thanks to a FIFO protocol.
    Unfortunately, we met several communication problems while using the main program and the FPGA program :
    - We have several error messages such as :
    -52007
    (The most recurrent) : "Called another software component" which
    happens when we would like to run the FPGA program and when we stop the
    main program.
    61046 : a clock error which occurs at close FPGA VI reference.
    We tried to solve these problems by creating a small program (without
    the FIFO protocol) aiming to test the communication between the
    powerfull computer and the FPGA. It worked.
    - Then, we created
    a program (on the computer) including the FIFO communication to test with the FPGA program. It
    roughly worked but the data were shifted. (This program runs on the
    laptop but not on the computer)
    - Then, we created a
    new project just to test the communication. It's a simple program in the
    FPGA :  when we click on OK button, it increments variables and
    transmits them to the host. In the host.vi, when we valid a button, we
    say to the FPGA "OK button = true" thus enabling reading of the data
    from the FPGA. This program has the same FIFO method as the main program
    but it doesn't work. Actually, in debug mode, we can see variables
    incrementation but in real time mode, the program blocks in FIFO
    reading.
    - We would like to mention that we have two versions of Labview : labview v8.6 on the laptop and  labview 2009 on the computer.
    Hoping that you will be able to help us,
    PS : in all test programs, we used the same way to implement the FIFO such as the first program which works on the laptop with labview v8.6.

    hello,
    Thank you for your answer,
    I understand your answer but the problem we have refers to the fifo. In fact, the program runs well on a laptop
    but when we run it on another computer, the data from fifo are shifted. We don't understand why?
    Morevover, we did another program with fifo communication and the program blocked during the fifo reading
    and we just stop it with the abort program button. Do you know why?
    We tested the FPGA program with the simulation and it worked normally.

  • Problems Installing LabVIEW

    Problems Installing LabVIEW Run-Time Engine for Ubuntu 11.04
    I'm relatively new to Ubuntu and its community, but have been pleasantly surprised with how easy troubleshooting has been. Unfortunately, I've spent the last two days trying to install the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine, but keep coming up short.
    I've tried a number methods from the following threads to no avail:
    The problem I'm having now is that despite having the ia32-libs, here is what comes up:
    Input: "sudo alien - k --scripts labview-2009-rte-9.0.1-1.i386.rpm"
    Response: "labview-2009-rte-9.0.1-1.i386.rpm is for architecture i386; the package cannot be built on this system".
    Alien is required because Ubuntu isn't compatible with the .rpm format.
    Your help would be immensely appreciated since we use LabVIEW programs to display, manipulate and simulate our spectra.

  • Eurotherm 2416 Configuration

    Hello,
    I try to get a Eurotherm 2416 via RS232 running. I can get the temperature without any problems, but when I like to enter the configuration menu, I recieve an error message, that he can't access the registers.
    I am not sure, but where do I enter the passwords? I set the user an the config password to "0" (disable). But it doesn't work.
    On the otherhand, no I can change the password with the included VI, but only once. Then I have to set it manually to "0" again.
    Up to now, it seems that he run in trouble with the passwords?
    any ideas?
    Axel
    P.S: I used the second example included in the driver package, but I doesn't work.

    Thank you for your quick respons.
    I am not sure where to select this parameters. The VI's I got from the NI accept only some "magic number" which will be written in some registers. Up to now I didn't find any way to pass a command.
    In the example shipped with the driver the init and the selection of the config mode are working. But as soon as some values should be written it failed.
    After switching to the config mode the Eurotherm displays
    conf
    0
    and expect to enter the password. Maybe you can explain how I can pass the configuration password. "ET24XX Configuration Password.vi" changes my password only, but the rest produces still errors.
    Thanks

  • Communication problem between NetBeans and Tomcat

    hi!
    i got a quite mysterious problem. here is what happens:
    - i start NetBeans 5.5.1 (the first time)
    - i want to debug my JSF-Project, the Debugger starts
    - After a few seconds the debugger waits for tomcat (it sais: "Waiting for Tomcat...") and tomcat starts
    - Again after a few seconds the tomcat-debugger-output sais "Tomcat startet in 3333 ms".
    okay.
    when i enter http://localhost:8084/ in my browser i get the tomcat homepage, so the server has definitely started! But nothing happens in NetBeans and nothing happens with my project....
    In the lower-right corner i see this blue working-bar that sais "deploying project" but nothing happens. The Project-Debugger-Output still sais "Waiting for Tomcat..." but nothing happens...
    And after something around 3 minutes (i guess it's a timeout) i get the error "Starting of Tomcat failed." But is HAS started, i can login to the Administration-Area in my browser!
    so i guess there is a communication problem between netbeans an tomcat. Netbeans waits for a message from tomcat but tomcat doesn't send it..or netbeans doesn't understand it.
    But the story goes on:
    When i press the debug-button a second time it takes only a few seconds till i get the message: "Tomcat server port 8084 already in use". OF COURSE! Because Tomcat has already startet and can't be stoped by NetBeans.
    i'm trying to solve this problem for 4 days now, so i would be very happy if anyone has an idea where to start/continue the search...
    thanks,
    flo.

  • Communication Problem with the second battery

    Hello,
    In Lenovo Solution Center it says that there is communiction problem with the second battery. I already had this problem some months ago, back then it didn't charge the second battery. I got a new one and it worked again. Now it says the same thing "communication problem", but i can charge the battery and I also can't find any other sign of something not working. But still- it seems weird that the program tells me something is wrong. Can somebody help me?

    Hi,
    I am not sure whether you have already solved the problem or not....
    Do the following to deploy MobileBIService.war file on tomcat
    1.Stop Tomcat Web application server.
    2.Copy the file, MobileBIService.war from [Install directory]\Mobile 14\Client to the Tomcat's "Webapps" directory.
    In my case, I copied the MobileBIService.war from C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Mobile14\Client to C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps. ( I used BO 4.0 SP02)
    3.     Start Tomcat.
    Restarting Tomcat would automatically deploy war file as a Web App
    One folder u201CMobileBiServiceu201D will appear in webapps folder when MobileBIService.war is deployed successfully.
    Hope it helps.

    The idea is that the Client Anyconnect is to reach the LAN at Branch Office, but did not reach.
    The communication is stablished just when I start a session (icmp and/or rdp) from Branch Office to the Client AnyConnect,
    in this way, the communication is OK, but just during a few minutes.

    Hi,
    the communication works when you send traffic from easyvpn branch side because it froms the IPSEC SA for local subnet and anyconnect HQ pool. The SA will only form when branch initiates the connection as this is dynamic peer connection to HQ ASA.
    when there no SA between branch and HQ for this traffic, HQ ASA has no clue about where to send the traffic from anyconnect to branch network.
    I hope it explains the cause.
    Regards,
    Abaji.

  • Communication problem with printer when using Parallels

    OK, apologies if this has been asked elsewhere but I've been trawling the forum for an hour and have yet to find the exact problem that I'm having!
    First of all, I'm a recent convert to Mac (hurrah I hear you all cry), secondly, I've set up Parallels to deal with some PC left-overs, thirdly, I've tried to use my old Dell printer and realised Dell doesn't support Macs (or not my AIO 922 anyway).
    So, I thought I'd get round this by installing the drivers for the printer on the Windows partition, which all went well until I actually tried to print something... although the printer is visible and 'on-line', I get the box informing me there's a communation problem with the printer and computer.
    It's beginning to wind me up so any info/advice would be greatly appreciated

    This is either a Windows or a Parallels problem. For Parallels go to http://forum.parallels.com. For Windows go to the support forums at Microsoft.
    There is no support for either product at these Discussions.

  • Communication problem, deskjet 920c

    I received a note for a repair to a communications problem for my printer.  When I tried to download it, I got to a "dot4 scrubber"  which stalled everything.   I had to reboot my computer to get rid of the note. 

    Hi robincom2,
    Thank you for joining the HP Support forums.   I understand that you received a message about a communications issue with your printer. 
    I have included a document with the trouble shooting steps you need to take to resolve the issue. I know that you weren't installing the printer when you received the error, but it's the trouble shooting steps that are important. Please follow the instructions for Steps one and two, as the software is already installed you shouldn't need to follow Step three.
