Fuzzy System Designer in Labview 8.5

I am using LabView 8.5. My project requires me to use fuzzy logic. In the Labview manual, stated that, I need to click to Tools > Control Design and Simulation > Fuzzy System Designer to launch the Fuzzy System Designer. However, in LabView 8.5, I follwed the steps but it did not lead to Fuzzy System Designer as the intruction mentioned in the manual. How to find it?

In addition, I strongly recommend to update your LabVIEW version to 2009 or later. We did a major improvement to the toolkit at that version.

  • 'Fuzzy System Designer' problem

    After I completed set up the 'Fuzzy System Designer' (2 inputs and 1 output). How can I use it in vi program? I find it can save as .fc (custom pattern) file in 'Fuzzy Logic Controller Design'. But how to use the .fc file?

    Hi,
    To use the Fuzzy Logic file, you need to use the "FL Load Fuzzy Controller" to load the file and use the "FL Fuzzy Controller" VI to execute the controller.
    The best way to see how to use it is accessing the manual and examples that ship with LabVIEW. You can access both function by going to "Help>>Search LabVIEW Help..." and go to "LabVIEW Modules and Toolkits" Options, browse the content for PID and Fuzzy Logic Toolkit. To access the example finder, go to "Help>>Find Examples.." and under Modules and Toolkits, find PID and Fuzzy Logic and open the examples.
    Hope this helps!

  • Fuzzy system designer

    Hi,
    Is it possible to start "Fuzzy system designer" from a .vi so that the .fs file is loaded?
    I would like to tune my rules and memberships. Now I must look for Tools -> Control... -> Fuzzy System Designer, then wait for it to load. After that I must find the right .fs file. It could  be more easily to use if the operation is: press button which stops fuzzy controller, starts/change control to Fuzzy system designer. After that I can edit rules etc, save the system. Back to my .vi. Press button to load new fuzzy system.
    Thanks in advance!

    To change parameters of Fuzzy WHILE the Fuzzy Controller, you have two options:
    1. You need to use the programmatic API (LabVIEW 2010 and later) that allow you to change any parameter while the VI is running. Please look at documentation and examples "examples\control\fuzzy\Dynamic greenhouse controller\FuzzyEx Dynamic Fuzzy Controller for a greenhouse.vi" to see how to use the API.
    2. You can automate the process you described below by place the load VI "inside the loop" and use a case structure to reload the controller after you modify the parameters with the existent tool. Notice that you do not need to stop the Fuzzy System Designer to operate your VI and you can modify the controller, save to a file and then, you can "reload" the controller, which will update all the parameters for you.
    Hope this helps.

  • Fuzzy system from simulink to labview

    Hey all, hope you are well. 
    I have a developed fuzzy system in simulink, how would I go about transfering this over to labview? If anyone has any help or developed a model that can do this. Any advice is well recieved. 
    regards
    Alim Guy

    Hi Alim,
    This can be achieved using the Simulation Interface Toolkit, which can be purchased from this URL, which allows you to directly interact with models developed in Simulink. This toolkit will import the developed files into LabVIEW. In terms of researching Fuzzy Systems created within LabVIEW, if you have the Fuzzy Logic Toolkit, you can go to the NI Example Finder (LabVIEW > Help > Find Examples...) and search for the keyword 'Fuzzy' you can view Fuzzy Systems developed purely in LabVIEW. You can learn in depth about Fuzzy Logic Toolkit here to see if these tools suit your specific requirements.
    In terms of the ease of implementation, it really depends on what you're after. It's not so much what process is easiest, but what you are suits your current process of development. If you're used to developing systems in Simulink and it's the standard at your workplace, then it's probably more suitable to implement your Fuzzy System through the Simulation Interface Toolkit; there are some extra steps required when importing the data in terms of referencing the variables appropriately in LabVIEW but it's not a lot of extra work. If you're interested in developing and implementing your systems entirely from the LabVIEW environment, it will be worth using the Fuzzy Logic Toolkit.

  • Minimum computer system requirements for LabVIEW 7.1

    What are the minimum computer system requirements for LabVIEW 7.1?  I have a PC with the following specifications:  1.7 GHz Pentium-4, 512 MB RAM, and a 60 GB hard drive running Windows ME.  I tried installing LabVIEW on the system but kept getting the "This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for this product" message.  What's the problem here?
    Thank you.

    Hi Enhan,
    You're problem may be related to the OS "Win-ME". 
    Your system appears fine, if there is room available on the HD.

  • Burglar Alarm System Design?

    Hi I am looking for a Burglar Alarm System program on Labview, I have found this one example however it is missing a Sub Vi named Arm.vi
    Any help would be greatly appreciated if anyone has any programs or could work out how to get this one running. I am no expert on Labview so need loads of help.
    Thank You
    EDIT: Link removed
    Message Edited by Support on 11-04-2009 08:39 AM

    The "Arm.vi" sub-vi is the heart of the program! The rest is just a rather messy wiring of the "entry" switches. Not sure why the "panic" button is set to stop the program, they usually set off the alarm. Judging from what is in the vi you supplied (apparently a school project) the "Arm.vi" allows the user to enter a "security code" from the keypad, waits some time after that, then starts monitoring the status of the "entry switches". If you have LabVIEW I would suggest making a simple program that loops at a specific rate (use a timed loop if available (I think it is only in the Full Dev package), otherwise a loop with a "wait (ms)" function set to a reasonable time (don't need to scan too fast, once every 200mS is More than fast enough I would think), and if it detects a "breech" sets a latched boolean (shift registers can be used to latch a boolean).  Give it a try, it is the way you grow to be "an expert at LabVIEW". It is unlikely that you will get a complete solution here, but if specific, incremental questions are asked you probably will.

  • More from Adam Taylor about Zynq and SDSoC: "Zynq is a device every embedded system designer should be familiar with"

    Adam Taylor publishes the MicroZed Chronicles weekly in the Xcell Daily blog so you are likely familiar with his writing. Adam has just published an article about SDSoC and Zynq titled “High-level synthesis comes of age with SDSoC” on the Embedded.com Web site. Here’s his motivation for writing this article:
    “…Zynq is a device every embedded system designer should be familiar with and considering for their application. At its heart the Zynq is not a FPGA with embedded processors -- like previous generations of FPGA with Power PCs -- but a true embedded processor with very flexible interfacing capabilities (DDR, CAN, UART, USB, Giga Bit Ethernet, SPI and I2C to name a few). What separates the Zynq from other embedded processors is the attached programmable logic, and with SDSoC embedded system developers can exploit this pretty simply…
    SDSoC takes the eclipse front end, Vivado HLS, Vivado and a lot of behind the scenes intelligence to create seamlessly the option to accelerate software functions in the attached programmable logic of the device.”
    What follows is a simple explanation of what SDSoC brings to the party from a design engineer’s perspective.

  • Fuzzy system. Correction of rules.

    Hi all! Tell me, I have a fuzzy logic system with 6 inputs and one output. How to draw up rules and to adjust the system so that the resulting index was changed in the range from 0 to 10. Under the current rules, it varies on average from 3 min to max 8.6. that is the scale of values is not complete, although output membership function changes from 0 to 10. In what may be the case.

    Fuzzy system.zip ‏38 KB

    Hello,
    This is a common behavior for Mamdani based Fuzzy controllers, where the defuzzification methods usually use the center or maximum value of a membership function to process the output, and these values maybe never touch the border of your universe of interest.
    A workaround would be just creating membership functions in a extended range, so the maximum or minimal outputs will be whitin your desired range. For example, instead of using 0___10 range, try -2___12 so the defuzzification can reach your 0 or 10.
    You can try first to mirror your first and last membership functions and see the result, and adjust them as needed.
    Hope this helps, best wishes.

  • Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy system in Labview, Matlab

    Hello! I am trying to make a neuro-fuzzy controller for an inverted pendulum in Labview. For this I've created a ANSIF neural network in matlab, witch is improving a Takagi-Sugeno .fis file (the fuzzy controller in matlab). I want to put this .fis file in labview.  Can I do that with matlab script?
    What other possibilities I have for creating a neural network in labview?.. I mean, for a neuro-fuzzy controller..
    Thank you for any idea!

    Hi Emilia,
    Please have a look at this post. To do it graphically, it appears that Mathscript is the only method--the other option is to call Matlab from the command line as suggested.
