Hello Guys and Girls,
I have a serial.llb working fine with labview 5.1, and I have upgraded my labview version to 7.1, when I opened the Serial.llb using labview 7.1 to upgrade it, It open but the program delete a lot of functions making the VIs not working at all !!!!!!!!
I tried to track the errors but I got a massege like "this function in not valid any more, and have to be replaced" I have no idea how and with what i should replace these functions.
Can someone help me to upgrade it to works with labview 7.1.
Thank you in advance,

How to convert llb from LabVIEW version 8 to 7.1

Can someone tell how to convert the llb from LabVIEW version 8 to version 7.1?
I hope to sent the program to the others, but the other side are using LabVIEW version 7.1 but not version 8.0.
I know I can save to VI file as previous version, but it contains severals of VI in the library, it is quite time consuming.
Can everyone sugguest any method or solution to solve my problem.
Thanks.

Hi anson,
it will run also in LV7.1 - but you should check those warnings (probably things not/differently supported by LV7.1...) anyway!

Convert VI llb from LabVIEW 5 for use in LabVIEW 8.6

Hi Everybody!
Firstly, I'd like to say how much I have enjoyed working for NI and especially supporting the online community in my spare work time. I have to say it is a great place for NI, long term users, new users and everything else LabVIEW - and you guys have fun! Excellent.
I am now back at university and I am looking to use LabVIEW for some robotic work. During my research I have found some manufacturer's VIs for the hardware: however their 'latest' version appears to be in LabVIEW 5.
Would someone be so kind to convert my VIs into at least LabVIEW 6, or up to LabVIEW 8.2.1 (Last version that can open LabVIEW 5 VIs) that would be great. My LabVIEW 8.6 should be able to open VIs saved in LabVIEW 6 or greater. (Obviously not LabVIEW 2009!)
Reference: How to Upgrade or Revert a VI to a Different Version of LabVIEW
Thanks ever so much in advance (I miss the day I had every version of LabVIEW - and NI software on my machine!)

Questions in upgrade RAC from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.2

I am new in installing RAC and need help in upgrade RAC from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.2.
We have a 3 node RAC of 11.2.0.1 on refhat 5.2, and are planing to upgrade to 11.2.0.2. We are doing out-of-place upgrade. For our single instance DEV environment, it works pretty well that we install 11.2.0.2 and copy data from the old database, and then shutdown the old one.
On the production RAC, I hope to install 11.2.0.2 on one node, and let it join the RAC with the other two nodes. Then do th same to the 2nd and 3rd node. I have the following questions.
1) For Out-of Place upgrade, should I just follow normal installation to install grid infrastructure and then the RAC?
2) In selecting Installation type should I choose Create and COnfigure database, or Upgrade an Existing Database?
3) What should I do with the ASM? I want to use the existing ASM.
4) Can I out-of place upgrade one node, and make it join the RAC, and then roll to another node, or I have to install 11.2.0.2 on all 3 nodes and configure a new RAC to replace the old RAC.
5) What should I do with ocr and voting disks?
Thanks

We have a 3 node RAC of 11.2.0.1 on refhat 5.2, and are planing to upgrade to 11.2.0.2. We are doing out-of-place upgrade. For our single instance DEV environment, it works pretty well that we install 11.2.0.2 and copy data from the old database, and then shutdown the old one. out of place does it mean you are restoring database on another server then upgrading? why like that any reason..
1) For Out-of Place upgrade, should I just follow normal installation to install grid infrastructure and then the RAC?Yes, You need to build RAC environment
2) In selecting Installation type should I choose Create and COnfigure database, or Upgrade an Existing Database?Upgrade existing database.
3) What should I do with the ASM? I want to use the existing ASM.you need to create an ASM instance on new server..
4) Can I out-of place upgrade one node, and make it join the RAC, and then roll to another node, or I have to install 11.2.0.2 on all 3 nodes and configure a new RAC to replace the old RAC.

5) What should I do with ocr and voting disks?at the time of cluster installtion you need to configure , later you need to register database before upgrade.

Can not access serial port while upgrading from LabVIEW 6.1 to 7.0

Hi,
I built an application under LabVIEW 6.0.2. few years ago. This application uses LabVIEW serial features. When I upgraded to LabVIEW 6.1, my application was still working correctly.
Today, I upgraded to LabVIEW 7.0, mass compile all VIs and now my application can not communicate with my peripheral !!!
The program is sending the command to the peripheral. The peripheral answers but LabVIEW serial driver does not see any datas on buffer even if datas are available ... "Bytes At serial port.vi" always returns 0. I am sure that datas are available, using a COM port psy.
Does anyone has an idea?
I saw a lot of solutions in the forum, but I would like to know the best solution with minimum work, te
st, and so on ... on my program.
Regards,
Pascal.

Hi Pascal,
Which is your version of NI-VISA?
Please see the link bellow :
http://digital.ni.com/manuals.nsf/websearch/E8D86CD680B0753D86256D2C005D8EA0
The first test to be made is to test the communication with your serial port using MAX (Measurement and Automation Explorer) :
Open MAX, Go to "Devices and Interfaces", then "Ports", select COM1 (or ASRL1::INSTR). Right clic on it and select "Open VISA Session" the go the "Basic I/O" then Write data, execute, Read data, execute.
Be sure that the communication is OK. Be sure that you use the same Alias existing in MAX in your LabVIEW program.
Now, if all is OK, try to use Serial communication examples existing in LabVIEW Help>>Examples Finder. These examples use NI-VISA VIs.
If all above is OK and you
still have the same problem, try to follow these instructions :
"In order to use the old Serial Compatibility VIs in LabVIEW 7.x, you must copy the following files from a previous version of LabVIEW to the LabVIEW 7.x directory:
Replace the serial.llb in LabVIEW 7.x with the serial.llb from a previous version of LabVIEW. This file is found in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW\vi.lib\instr.
Replace the _sersup.llb file in LabVIEW 7.x with the _sersup.llb from a previous version of LabVIEW. In LabVIEW 6i and 6.1 this file is located in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW\vi.lib\platform. In LabVIEW 7.x (and 5.x) this file is found in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW\vi.lib\instr.
Copy the file serpdrv to the C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.x directory. This file is not installed with LabVIEW 7.x, so it only needs to be copied from a previous version of LabVIEW, not replaced."
I hope that my answer will help you.

What issues are there in upgrading from LabVIEW 4.0 up to LabVIEW 6.1?

I am "inheriting" a LabVIEW 4.0 application that is running on an old (133MHz) Pentium PC with the Windows95 OS. I would like to upgrade the PC to a more recent CPU running Windows2000. I also want to upgrade LabVIEW to version 6.1. Are there any issues in performing the LabVIEW upgrade? Will I need to rework most of the application or is the transition from LabVIEW 4.0 to 6.1 fairly painless and transparent?
Any help is appreciated. I've never been through a LabVIEW upgrade before and am treading in uncharted water.
Thanks.

Boy, it seems I can't stick my head above water without this topic coming up. I've had thr exact same upgrade question come up on two different contracts--in the past week!
In any case, the code itself should come across without major problems, unless you are using CINs. The only real trouble I'v had are with things like serial I/O as the drivers have changed dramatically over the years.
Now the code that you translate will be (by comparison) very inefficient thanks to the makor enhancements that have taken place over the last two major revisions.
For the most part, I would have to vote for "fairly painless".

Problems with IMAQ Vision after upgrading from Labview 6i to Labview 6.1

Hi,
We just upgraded from Labview 6i to 6.1.To do this,we uninstalled the 6i version as was suggested by NI and then installed the 6.1 version.Later when we tried to run the old vi's written using Imaq vision, we ran into different problems.Has anyone experienced any similar problems with IMaq vision after upgrading?If so please help me solve this issue.
Thanx
deepak

What kind of problems?
I would strongly suggest that you uninstall IMAQ (all elements) and reinstall them. They register with Windows, probably docked to 6i, and also must be recompiled, which I believe is done in installation.
This is your best bet.
If you still have problems, contact NI and ni.com/ask and start a support inquiry.

Need help with upgrading my OS from 10.5.8

Need help with upgrading my OS. I havent upgraded the OS since I bought it and have version 10.5.8. Now I cant download Mountain Lion- or even Snow Leopard. When i downloaded the first version of SL- 10.6.1 it says i have to have 10.6 first and I cant find that.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple withdrew Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
UPDATE:
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

Need help with upgrade from Adobe Creative Suite to PS CS4

My old laptop with Photoshop on it crashed and I ended up purchasing a new laptop.
I'm trying to reload my PS CS4. I am using an upgrade from an educational Adobe Creative Suite Premium to the CS4 and when I loaded it on my old laptop I had to get installation help through customer service, but now customer service will not help me since it is CS4.
When installing the upgrade, it tell me to select the product I already own. I own the educational full creative suite, but am only upgrading the Photoshop. I chose Photoshop CS and tried entering the serial number for the suite. It tells me that the serial number doesn't match the product chosen. Of course the only products I'm allowed to choose from is Photoshop CS, CS2, or CS3 and not Creative Suite Premium.
The other serial numbers on this CS is Golive CO and Pagemaker Plug-in.
I was told there are Adobe customer service reps here on the forum, please tell me what it was I need to do to get my Photoshop installed.
Thanks

i wasn't aware that you could get a ps4 at an upgrade price using an older creative suite produect. i searched online and found this thread (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/476009) which makes it appear that was not a valid upgrade path.
but, if you're confident that was a valid upgrade path, i'm pretty sure something will need to be done on adobe's end and no amount of manipulation, on your end only, will work.
your best bet would be to get help in this forum from an adobe staff member like jeff wright who is very knowledgeable and goes out of his way to help adobe customers. to that end, if i were you, i would start a new thread mentioning his name in your title and in your initial post explaining:
you have the educational Adobe Creative Suite Premium and purchased a photoshop cs4 upgrade years ago that required adobe support help to install years ago.
that worked well until a recent computer problem forced you buy a new laptop and you are now trying to reinstall that ps cs4 and again need support help but have been refused help because cs4 is not current.

Upgrading from LabVIEW 4

I'm currently upgrading an application from LabVIEW 4 to 2010 by way of 7.1. After opening the VIs in 7.1, I have several orphaned local variables and no idea what they might have been attached to.
Does anyone know how local variable behavior might have changed between 4 and 7.1 to cause this? I'm probably going to load 4 in a VM to check it out but thought this might be a known artifact that pops up when doing these types of upgrades.
Thanks!

as part of the evolution, so has the desire to use wires instead of Locals... (I hear shouts already )
If you know the control that it came from, is it within a section of the code where a wire would do the trick? Or if in a Loop, a nice Shift Register will carry the data. If within a Stacked Sequence Structure, then you may have to flatten it first.. Then clean up the code..

Upgrading from LabVIEW 6.1 to 7.1, get a MS C++ Runtime Error

After upgrading from LabVIeW 6.1 to 7.1, I get a Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error
It states:
Runtime Error!
Program:...ogram Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.1\LabVIEW.exe
abnormal program termination
I am using Windows NT, ver 4.0 SP 6.

I assume you get this error message everytime LabVIEW starts. This is not normal behavior. It is not even a common error. Have you tried reinstalling?
