  • How can i update an html web page from Labview?

    I intend to publish the "status" of an experiment online through an web page. I mean, if my vi is running i would like to have a phrase or indicator set on at my web page. If my Vi is not running i would like this indicator set off. This page is hosted in a server and I would like to know if its possible to update the html file from labview through an ftp connection.
    Thanks in advance...

    The system exec function is on the Communication palette. Its for executing system commands. On my Win2K system, the help for FTP is:
    "Ftp
    Transfers files to and from a computer running an FTP server service (sometimes called a daemon). Ftp can be used interactively. Click ftp commands in the Related Topics list for a description of available ftp subcommands. This command is available only if the TCP/IP protocol has been installed. Ftp is a service, that, once started, creates a sub-environment in which you can use ftp commands, and from which you can return to the Windows 2000 command prompt by typing the quit subcommand. When the ftp sub-environment is running, it is indicated by the ftp command prompt.
    ftp [-v] [-n] [-i] [-d] [-g]
    [-s:filename] [-a] [-w:windowsize] [computer]
    Parameters
    -v
    Suppresses display of remote server responses.
    -n
    Suppresses autologin upon initial connection.
    -i
    Turns off interactive prompting during multiple file transfers.
    -d
    Enables debugging, displaying all ftp commands passed between the client and server.
    -g
    Disables file name globbing, which permits the use of wildcard characters (* and ?) in local file and path names. (See the glob command in the online Command Reference.)
    -s:filename
    Specifies a text file containing ftp commands; the commands automatically run after ftp starts. No spaces are allowed in this parameter. Use this switch instead of redirection (>).
    -a
    Use any local interface when binding data connection.
    -w:windowsize
    Overrides the default transfer buffer size of 4096.
    computer
    Specifies the computer name or IP address of the remote computer to connect to. The computer, if specified, must be the last paramete
    r on the line."
    I use tftp all of the time to transfer files in a similar manner. Test the transfer from the Windows command line and copy it into a VI. Pass the command line to system exec and wait until it's done.

  • What is the easiest way to open an application from Labview?

    I need to open an application from labview and depending on a user's selection, load one out of a group of files for the application that is opened. I need to know what is the best or easiest way to open an application and load a file that is used by the application based on a selection.

    Here is the response that I got from Cognex when I asked them about how to do this. Do you understand what they are talking about?
    In order to do something like this you will probably want to look into the Display Control/SDK for In-Sight. The Display Control gets installed along with In-Sight Explorer and includes a control that can be used in an environment like Labview to communicate with In-Sight sensors while the SDK is an enhanced version of the Display Control that gives you more control and functionality. I am not very familiar with the Labview environment so I will give some code snippets in VB.Net and hopefully you can adjust them as necessary. Specifically I see 3 possible avenues to do this:
     1) Using the Display Control you have access to many of the dialog boxes that are used in In-Sight Explorer including the Load Job dialog box. You can spawn this dialog box through a line of code similar to cvsInSightDisplay1.Edit.OpenJob.Execute(). I am not certain if the Labview environment will be able to spawn and display this dialog though. 2) With the addition of the SDK (additional purchase) you can directly access sensor properties including the job. There is a method called LoadJobFile to load jobs from on the sensor and LoadJobFileLocally to load jobs from the host machine. A typical line of code might be cvsInSightDisplay1.InSight.File.LoadJobFile("myjob1.job").3) If Labview cannot handle the dialogs and the SDK is not an option for you then you may still be able to do this using Native Mode commands. Native Mode commands are sent through a socket on the telnet port (typically port 23). Keep in mind that you will need to handle the username/password prompt and response when you first open the socket before issuing any Native Mode commands. The command to load a job file from the sensor would be the Load File command which would be a string similar to "LF myjob1.job". The Native Mode commands are documented in the In-Sight Explorer help file. 

  • Error -17600 when switching from LabVIEW Development System to LabVIEW Run-Time Engine in Adapter Configuration

    I receive an error message (code -17600) while loading my test sequence after switching from LabVIEW Development System (2009 f3) to LabVIEW Run-TIme Engine using the Adapter Configuration.
    ErrorCode: -17600,
    Failed to load a required step's associated module.
    LabVIEW Run-Time Engine version 9.0.1f3.
    When I switch back to the LV development system, everything is OK, and the sequence loads and runs perfectly.
    My TestStand Engine Version is 2012 f1 (5.0.0.262).
    I'd appreciate any help on this issue.
    Roman

    Hi Roman,
    There are a couple of things you can try:
    1) Determine if the LabVIEW RunTime Engine is corrupted in some way. Create a new simple VI with no sub-VIs, using the same LabVIEW Development system you used for mass-compiling the VIs. Create a TestStand step that calls this VI and ensure it runs correctly. Now switch your LabVIEW adapter to use the RuntimeEngine and choose the "Auto detect using VI version" option.
    Check if the simple VI is loadable and runs without errors in TestStand.
    If the step generates the same error, you should try a re-install of the LabVIEW development system.
    If not, its most likely that there is some VI you are using that is not loadable in the LabVIEW Runtime Engine because:
    1) Some sub-VI is still not saved in the right version or bitness. Open the VI heirarchy of the top-level VI that you are calling from TestStand and examine the paths of all the sub-VIs to check if they were in the folder you masscompiled and re-save any that are outside this directory.
    Also, when you try to close the top level VI, do you get a prompt to save any unsaved files? If so, they could be the sub-VIs that are not saved in the right version. Save all of them.
    Check if you are loading any VIs programatically and if these are compiled and saved in the right version as well.
    2) There is some feature you are using in your LabVIEW code that is not supported in the LabVIEW RunTime Engine. To check this, add your top-level VI to a LabVIEW project and create a new build specification and create a new executable from this VI.
        Right-click "Build Specifications" and choose "New->Application(EXE)".
        In the Application Properties window, select Source Files and choose the top level VI as the start-up VI.
        Save the properties.
        Right-click on the newly created build specification and choose Build.
    Run this executable (it will be run using the LabVIEW RunTime) and check if the VI has a broken arrow indicating that it cannot be loaded and run in the LabVIEW Runtime Engine.
    You might need to examine your code and find the feature which is not supported in the LabVIEW RunTime and find an alternative.
    Another thing i forgot to mention the last time around is if you are using 64-bit LabVIEW with 32-bit TestStand, then executing code using LabVIEW RTE from TestStand will not work since the 64-bit LabVIEW RTE dll cannot be loaded by the 32-bit TestStand process.
    If none of the above steps resolve the issue, consider sharing your LabVIEW code so i can take a look.

  • How can I login to a website from LabVIEW, for example to Hotmail ?

    I'd like to use the Data Socket Write VI to be able to give my
    loginname and my password from LabVIEW 6i. I really don't know how
    this VI works, and/or if this is possible.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello,
    Thank you for your inquiry regarding website login. I understand that you would like to logon to Hotmail using LabVIEW 6.i. DataSocket however, is used to send and receive data between computers running LabVIEW. One possible solution is to use ActiveX events to run an internet browser window on the front panel of your VI. I assume however, that you would like LabVIEW to automate this task. Unfortunately Hotmail is a secure site using Microsoft Passport .NET. .NET is supported by LabVIEW 7.0 but the .NET control of Passport would have to be provided by Microsoft. The following link is a great resource to learn more about the .NET single-login system.

    I hope this resource helps. Let me know if you wo
    uld like more help using a browser window on your front panel using ActiveX.

  • How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

    How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
    I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document.  When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
    It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
    The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
    Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
    This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

    Iam using a sensoray 2601 module.It is given as DLL file(S2600.DLL).How can i call this function from LabVIEW?
    Please Mark the solution as accepted if your problem is solved and donate kudoes

    As far as I can tell problems might occur with the call library function node if the the DLL from visual basic is actually an ActiveX dll if that is the case it seems calling the dll by using the Invoke node is the way to go.

  • Error message from labview when trying to set up the DAQ assistant

    I recieve a message from labview when I try to set up the DAQ assistant and select a channel to use. The error I get states "An exception occured within the external code called by a Call Library Node. This might have corrupted LabView's memory. Save any work to a new location and restart labview". Labview then freezes. I have reset the DAQ device in trying to slove this but I still get the same message. How do I solve this?? thanks - mars2006

    Hi Mars-
    It sounds like your NI-DAQ installation may have become corrupted. I would suggest uninstalling and reinstalling the DAQmx 7.4 driver to correct this problem and ensure that you're up to date. This download is available here: NI-DAQ 7.4
    If the problem persists you may want to uninstall and reinstall LabVIEW and then NI-DAQ in that order. The error message will usually give an indication as to which VI the error occurred in. Please let us know which VI is failing if you're unable to avoid the error with these suggestions.
    Have a good day-

  • Error while runing diadem asynchronous script from labview on dual core processor

    Urgent need of some help / advice here!
    Single core runs fine... dual core produces error: Error in <XYaxis.vbs> (line: 17, column: 1): Error while opening object. The object currently open has no subobjects. Forgotten ObjClose?
    The main software built in labview used for daq and analysis generates a PDF report on completion of a test, utilising diadem. For this I use the diadem express vi in labview to generate a multi page report, whereby I use for loop to iterate an array of channels for each page. This for loop has a shift register too. After each page I run a script to adjust a few parameters like linear/log, begin/end and line thickness using the diadem connectivity tookit. See script below:
    Call GraphObjOpen("2D-Axis1")
    Call GraphObjOpen("2DXAxis8_1")
    D2AxisXDivMode = "linear"
    D2AxisXScaleType = "begin/end manual"
    D2AxisXBegin = 20
    D2AxisXEnd = 20000
    Call GraphObjClose("2DXAxis8_1")
    Call GraphObjOpen("2DYAxis8_1")
    D2AxisYDivMode = "linear"
    D2AxisYScaleType = "complete automatic"
    D2AxisYBegin = 0
    D2AxisYEnd = 0
    Call GraphObjClose("2DYAxis8_1")
    FOR c = 1 TO CurveNoMax
    If D2CurveObj(c) = "" Then Exit For ' c
    Call GraphObjOpen(D2CurveObj(c))
    D2CurveLineWidth = 0.75
    Call GraphObjClose(D2CurveObj(c))
    NEXT ' c
    Call GraphObjClose("2D-Axis1")
    There is also a screenshot of the vi: (script file is generated by the Dscript vi and saved to disk. then path is passed to the diadem script vi.)
    What I find is, after the first report page is complete in diadem the second page ALWAYS shows the error as shown at the top. However, on my P4 laptop with single core (no hyperthreading) its runs FINE EVERY TIME with any given number of channels/pages in the report.
    My current chain of thought is that the superfast dual core is doing something in parallel therefore not waiting for the previous page to complete or finish closing its object!? however, in my for loop I use a shift register as named before, surely this kind of loop cannot be divided over more cores/parallel threads? as it has to wait for the response of the previous.!?!? Im running LV 8.6 on WinXP for this project and I didnt even think multicore processing for for loops is included in this version.
    The other thing is... this script used to run fine on the dual core until I added the last part that uses a for loop to get every line of the graph to be the thinkness I need. Is this for loop the culprit? Can I stop it from executing over multiple cores/threads? I read a post saying that from diadem 8 there was multi core support. this triggered my doubt
    As always any comments are most appreciated

    Solved!

    Hi Al,
    I have a theory, but only you can test it.  In your VI screenshot, you have the boolean input for the DIAdem Execute Script.vi set to asynchronous=TRUE.  My theory says that if you change that boolean (and all others like it) to asynchrous=FALSE that the error will not occur on the multicore computer.  The other thing you could try would be to consolidate all REPORT commands that pertain to one REPORT page into a single ActiveX call to DIAdem.  In the screenshot below you have at least 2 separate VIs calling DIAdem, so that's at least 2 separate ActiveX calls for one REPORT sheet.
    Here's what I think is going on.  On a multicore computer there is the potential for different ActiveX commands from LV to DIAdem to execute on different cores, which may result in a timing problem on the DIAdem side.  DIAdem 11.x and earlier runs exclusively on 1 CPU, so the incoming ActiveX commands should be sequenced correctly by DIAdem's ActiveX to-do list.  Theoretically DIAdem should serialize all the incoming ActiveX commands (regardless of which CPU processed them) in the order that they arrived at the DIAdem ActiveX server(s).  On the sending side, LabVIEW's dataflow execution should theoretically guarantee that all the ActiveX requests are being sent in the correct order.  But it is theoretically possible that the operating system's ActiveX processing queue might not send all the ActiveX commands to DIAdem in the order that it receives them from LabVIEW-- IF YOU'VE SELECTED ASYNCHRONOUS PROCESSING.
    See if these clues help,

  • Problems with project when switched from Labview 8.2.1 to Labview 10

    Hi everyone,

    Before I can run the project I get the error which you can see in the attachment.
    (The project is running well in Labview 8.2.1)
    I did already check if variables end with a space, but none of them are.
    The variables are also without any slashes, so that couldn't be the problem either.
    Does anybody has any idea what the problem can be, please let me know.

    Your other post in the other thread indicates you've looked at that thread. Based on that have you checked your variable names to see if any of them are multi-line? The error message is basically telling you that you have illegal characters. A carriage return (\r) or a new line (\n) is an illegal character.

  • Missing functionality if storing TDSM from LabVIEW

    In DIAdem File Browser window is selected a file from DIAdem 11.0 Examples directory. File FFT_Expl_1 has icon with „tree pictogram“ and „tree pictogram“ can be expanded to see content of file (Time, Oscillation), bellow of File Browser is displayed many file properties. Anyway these properties are not displayed in DataPortal area?!? See picture 1.
    Pict. 1
    If I click on the file content in tree hiearchy channel Oscillation I can see properties for this channel and small graph with the signal preview. See picture 2.
    Pict. 2
    To make my own data I have used examples from LabVIEW 8.6. One of these is on the picture 3 TDMS - Express write data (time and frequency domain).vi.
    Pict. 3
    Every time I create TDMS data from LabVIEW 8.6 (it doesn’t matter which example I use) I see in DIAdem File Browser instead of tree icon the question mark icon?!? The question mark icon cannot be expanded by clicking on it?!? Also the amount of Shown properties is significantly lower in comparison with DIADem example files. Also no signal preview is displayed?!? How to proceed with LabVIEW and TDMS function to have possibilities of DIAdem example files?

    TDMS problems 2.doc ‏289 KB

    Hello bilik,
    Thank you for the great description of your problem, the Word document with the screen shots really helps with the troubleshooting.
    It looks to me as if you haven't indexed the directory where your TDMS files are stored. The "?" icon indicates that the file is not indexed. If a file is not indexed, only a subset of the properties are shown in the dialogs.
    The easiest way to solve this issue is to index the directory that contains you data files (your directory icons are grey, they should be yellow). This can be done by going to the directory (or subdirectory) in the DIAdem NAVIGATOR window, and right clocking on the directory name. From the context menu, select the function "Add Search Area ..." - your directory will then be transferred to the Search Areas part of the NAVIGATOR and all the TDMS files will be indexed. At the point the files will show all the properties and the "?" will disappear.
    Let me know if that helped,

  • Can I open a excel file from labview

    I have a program who write temperature in a excel file and i want to open this file from labview .

    This depends slightly on the amount of data you have stored within Excel.
    You can use the "Labview Functions>>FileIO>>Read from Spreadsheet file.vi" which effectively reads all lines from a text file and converts it into a numeric array.
    Alternatively, if your data structure in Excel is more complex than this, you can use ActiveX calls to Excel to retrieve it.
    Use an "ActiveX>>Automation Refnum" control and select the Excel server class. This will then enable you to access properties and methods of Excel to retrieve data from specific cells and pages.
    The attached example should help.
