How can I use my Keithley 2100 DMM with LabVIEW 7 Express?

How can I communicate with Keithley 2100 digital multimeter using LabVIEW 7.0?

Hi,
There are a number of ways,
1) Unfortunately the driver on the Keithley site is for labview version 8.0, so you could speak to keithley to see if they can provide a ver7.0 of the instrument driver
2) You could use the version for the 2000 model from the NI website
http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.download_page?p_id_guid=E3B19B3E90B0659CE034080020E748...
There is a version 7.0 which you could modify to suit the 2100
3) Use the VISA vi's and create your own driver using the user manual for the bus commands to driver the instrument.
Hope this helps

how can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

No you do not need separate Apple ID's in order to use 3 devices with one Apple ID. I use 4 devices to Message and FaceTime and all use the same Apple ID. You do need to add additional email addresses for the other devices.
Look at this very informative video for the instructions.

You can't. Doing so is not supported.

I Purchased a iPhone 5s in USA. How can I use this phone in India with Vodafone.
<Edited By Host>

First, the iPhone would need to be unlocked. That would depend on where you bought it. Next, the North American phone would not work with all of the networks outside of the US. Also, the warranty for the device is only good in the US, so if you have a problem with the phone, you would need to bring it back to the US to an Apple Store. Where did you purchase the phone?

Can I use IMovie HD 6.4 with Final Cut Express?

Can I use IMovie HD 6.4 with Final Cut Express?

Hi
Yes and no.
You can't get an editable material over from one to the other.
eg a misspelled word in iMovie project can't be corrected in FCE/P any version.
I use iMovie combined with FCE/P in just one case when there are to many drop outs
on the raw material eg recorded in LP-mode (90min on a 60min tape)
Then iMovie can import in a more forgiving way.
BUT
When this material is moved over to FCE/P the audio parts needs to be rendered
not just one time but whenever any change is done. A very nearv-wrecking and tedious
procedure.
Summary. Joint project should use same platform. In my cases me and friend has
each one full version of FCE4 and an external hard disk that contain the movie
project.
This we exchange with each other to do each the parts that we are on best to do.
Yours Bengt W

How can I use the NI PXI-6508 with Lab View 7? what are the first steps to get started??How can I use the channels with lab view 7????

I have a 8 slot PXI system with 2 NI PXI 6508 and 1 DMM 4070 in it. I want to get started with programming the digital I/O cards (6508)! How can I use this cards with LabView 7?what is the best way to get started, or where can I get examples showing how to use the several channels?
Thanks!
Philipp

Philipp,
The best way to get started is to decide if you want to use traditional NI-DAQ or NI-DAQmx. Recently we released NI-DAQ 7.1 which provides NI-DAQmx support for the PXI-6508. In my opinion, NI-DAQmx is more efficient and much easier to use.
To get started with examples, simply launch LabVIEW and go to Help>>Find Examples. Then expand Hardware Input and Output>>DAQmx and select the appropriate digital group for your application. This should help get you started.
Please repost if you need addition assistance. Good luck with your application!

How to insert delay without using loops, and how can I use variable to store data in labview

Hi all,
I am new to Labview and I realized that quite often I am in condition to require a delay beween two functions or elements.. how can we insert a delay in such cases?
I know how to use delays in a loop. but don't know how to inser some time delay between two elements.
I have one more question, I know its a bad practice to post 2 questions in 1 thread.
How can I use a temporary variable to store data, So far I am storing it in an indicator by making it invisible in front panel and making local variable of that indicator, is it the right way to do it ?
Thanks in advance.

Generally, LV doesn't have variables in the same sense that most languages do. You can use indicators to perform the same function as variables, but as Adnan pointed out, you run the risk of having race condition and it creates data copies, which is a problem if you have a lot of data. In most cases, you should use wires to perform the function of variables, which is to store data and make it available to the different functions in your code. Instead of thinking about variables, you need to think about data (something like "I have the data coming out of this function. Where does it need to go?").

How can we use 2 Apple ID's with 1 Apple TV??

We just bought an Apple TV device. We anticipate liking it, but are a bit stuck at the moment.
We have 2 laptops (PC), 2 Apple ID's and 1 Apple TV device. How can we use the Apple TV with each of our unique ID's?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks - s2557

The answer is YES. with no problems. In fact you can connect up to FIVE units in one itunes (But no more). I have no idea why OR who was the FOOL, that picked only 5 units. This has set limitation on their own product. I currently use 5 Apple Tvs at work for a interdepartmental media network. It just runs slide shows and training video's. I needed 9 units up and running, So I have another computer just to pickup the last 4 units, and shared the file folders I run 5 units at home as well. However you have to leave that itunes up and running. The five authorized limitation is also a pain. Steve said he was dong away with DRM, I guess that didn't work out to well. In short, I run 5 laptops, 3 desktops, 1 Mac Pro, 4 Ipads, 4 Iphones AND one Mac Mini with server 10.5.6 for a family of 4. The FIVE number limitation is a major pain. Best of luck to you.

How can I use a shared library made with the application builder?

Hi,
I am using LabVIEW 7.1 running on Slackware 10.1 (kernel 2.4.29) and I am trying to call a graph display from a C program that I use for debugging VME access from a VMIVME controler. So using the application builder I built the VI as a shared library (graph.vi -> graph.so) containing a function called "graph". In my main program the call to the dlopen fails with the error: "graph.so: undefined symbol: UninitLVClient". When I examin graph.so with nm I see that UninitLVClient and other LabVIEW functions are indeed undefined and using ldd shows that graph.so has dependencies only on libc.so.* and *linux*.so.* but not on LabVIEW related stuff. Those functions are defined in the liblv.so that's in the cintools directory but I have no idea if the user is supposed to use that.
So I think I am missing an important concept here. Can somebody help or direct me to some documentation (I found lots of information about how to link external code to LabVIEW but nothing about how to link LabVIEW code to an external program)?

Thanks Watermann,
your message has been very useful so now I am linking to the proper library but I still have problems when trying to load dynamically the shared library produced with LabVIEW. It is strange that I could successfully load the lvrt library at loading time but it does not work when I am loading the library at execution time.
I made a small LabVIEW program that prints a hello window and I am calling it from a C program. In the first program main.c I am linking to the lvrt library at loading time and it works but in the second one I am linking dynamically at execution time and it does not work. For my work I need to be able to load code done in LabVIEW at execution time. Any help is appreciated!
Program main.c:
// small program to call a LabVIEW shared library
#include
#include
#include "hello.h" // got this from the LabVIEW builder, i.e. when I made the hello.so
int main(void)
printf("Hello from C!\nLets call LabVIEW now\n");
hello();
printf("Bye ... \n");
return 0;
The command to compile main.c, i.e. linking shared library lvrt when loading main program:
gcc -Wall -I /usr/local/lv71/cintools/ -o main main.c hello.so -l lvrt
The LD_LIBRARY_PATH has been defined and exported:
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
IT WORKS!
Program main2.c:
// small program to call a LabVIEW shared library
#include
#include
#include
int main(void)
void * h_lvrt;
void * h_hello;
void (* hello)(void);
char * error;
printf("Hello from C!\nLets call LabVIEW now\n");
// open LabVIEW RunTime shared library
// in my computer located at /usr/local/lib/liblvrt.so
h_lvrt = dlopen("/usr/local/lib/liblvrt.so", RTLD_NOW);
// check for error
error = dlerror();
if (error) {
printf("error : could not open LabVIEW RunTime library\n");
printf("%s\n", error);
return 1;
// open hello shared library
// in my computer located at /home/darss/lv_call/hello.so
h_hello = dlopen("hello.so", RTLD_NOW);
// check for error
error = dlerror();
if (error) {
// close LabVIEW RunTime shared library
dlclose(h_lvrt);
printf("error : could not open hello library\n");
printf("%s\n", error);
return 1;
// get function hello from library hello.so
hello = dlsym(h_hello, "hello");
// check for error
error = dlerror();
if (error) {
// close hello shared library
dlclose(h_hello);
// close LabVIEW RunTime shared library
dlclose(h_lvrt);
printf("error : could not get the hello function\n");
printf("%s\n", error);
return 1;
// call hello function
hello();
// close hello shared library
dlclose(h_hello);
// close LabVIEW RunTime shared library
dlclose(h_lvrt);
printf("Bye ... \n");
return 0;
The command to compile main2.c, i.e. dynamically linking library lvrt at execution of main2 program:
gcc -Wall -o main2 main2.c -l dl
The LD_LIBRARY_PATH still defined and exported.
IT DOES NOT WORK!
Program output:
Hello from C!
Lets call LabVIEW now
error : could not open hello library
/home/darss/lv_call/hello.so: undefined symbol: WaitLVDLLReady

How can I use NSDictionaryControllers for 2 dicts with common key?

I have two dictionaries, both with the same key. Using Interface Builder I can build for each dictionary a two-column table, but I did not find out how to connect their keys so that selecting a line in one table automatically selects the corresponding line in the other table.
Does there exist a binding between the two controllers that solves the problem? If so, how can it be established?
(First I tried to use only ONE table - with 3 columns:. This appeared to me the best way. But again I could not establish the appropriate binding.)

I assume you are using a UITableView to show your data. Remember that the table view does not store your data, only shows a few rows of your collection.
I would detect a selection in one table, then programatically select the row with the same key in the second table. There would be no connection in IB to do that.
