How can I programmatically load a sub VI into my code

Hi everybody,
I am developing a program for an automated test system to determine the cut off frequency of low pass filters.The filters in question are simulated in labview as sub VIs with two inputs (input voltage and frequency) and one output (output voltage.
I have already developed a program that can interrogate one filter and determine its cut off frequency.
My challenge is how to test any of the filters automatically without writing parallel codes for all of them.
Put in another way, I want the program to ask the user to load any of the filters (sub VI) from the desktop or from any other location so the the code I have already writing can interrogate the filters and determine the cut off frequency
Any suggestion will be appreciated
Thanks.

There are a couple of ways to do this, depending on your ability. You can do it with a heirarchy of inherited classes, or a selection of VIs with the same connector pane layout. (These are basically the same; classes would be more manageable, and selectable VIs probably quicker to implement)
Search the example finder for 'plugin' to find a plug-in architecture of the latter of the above methods.
- Cheers, Ed

It used to be more common to be asked how to uninstall such toolbars. I think It will now be known as a Bing bar, but as far as I know it is no longer supported for Firefox. You may find some unofficial addons with similar types of functions.
You would be better discussing anything further relating to MSN on a specialist MSN forum.

How can I down load ios5 from my ipad2

How can I down load ios5 from my ipad2

Only once you've got iOS 5+ on the iPad can updates then be done wirelessly directly on the iPad, until then you need to update via your computer.
To update to iOS 5.0.1 you need iTunes 10.5 on your computer. When you've got iTunes 10.5 installed then connect your iPad to it and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. You should also backup the device (right-click the iPad 'device' and select 'back up'), and copy off any important documents, files, notes etc (e.g. by email, the file sharing section at the bottom of the Apps tab, wifi, whatever the apps that you use support) - the update process should backup and restore your content but it's best to be safe.
If iTunes doesn't then prompt you to update to iOS 5 on your iPad, then with the iPad connected to and selected on the left-hand side of it, then on the Summary tab on the right-hand side click the Check For Updates button.

I Just purchased a used MacBook Air but it has no OS, how can I re-load the OS?

I Just purchased a used MacBook Air but it has no OS, how can I re-load the OS?

It depends on which operating system was on it when it was released. Older MBAs need disks or a special thumb drive to boot for OS recovery.
Let’s assume it is new enough that it has a recovery partition built in. You can try this and see if it works and if it doesn’t work then it is old enough to need he aforementioned recovery media.
It is simple. First you format the system disk and then you install OS X.
You will need to be in an area with a good wireless Internet signal.
Boot in Recovery Mode:
Power it on and when you hear the bong hold down the Command and R keys simultaneously.
Format the system disk:
> Disk Utility
> Select your system drive.
> Partition
> Partition Layout: 1 Partiton
> Options...
> GUID Partition Table
> OK
> Name: Macintosh HD
> Format: Mac OS Extended (journaled)

> Disk Utility > Quit Disk Utility
Install OS X:
> Click on Install OS X and follow the instructions.

How can I programmatically clear a chart?

Hi,
Could you please let me know how can I programmatically clear a chart? I would like to run a code multiple times and everytime I run it , the chart should be cleared . I tried to find a History property node but seems like there is no such properfy node for chart

If I have conceived your problem clearly, there is of course history data property node for charts. You may get one by right clicking on chart

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. Can you explain, and perhaps post a screenshot?
Also, I haven't heard of any changes from 10.1.3 that would alter the way we work with multicam. Maybe you can describe more clearly the problem. I would guess that going back to 10.1.2 would not fix anything, but it hard to know since it is not clear what the problem is.

How can I programmatically change a label?

Hi everyone,
I have a 2-D array that I wish to populate with different sorts of data. Depending upon the data, the names of the rows and columns may change. Arrays have to have identical labels and I suppose I could simply populate a string indicator, but frankly, that looks like trash.
How can I programmatically change a label of a column or a row in a 2-D array? Should I consider using a table? I want it to look nice.
Thanks,
Jason

Hi
I do not think you are able to change the label programatically.
But you might consider to use Captions instead of labels. You can hide labels and make captions visible programatically, and you can change the text of the caption and size (see enclosed vi).
take care
