How to develop a simple HMI in LabView

Hello,
I need to develop a very simple HMI for TestStand. This HMI must only show some IDs of the DUT and the Name and Result of the step actually running.
The language I know best is LabView, so I would like to write this HMI in this language.
I looked at the examples shipped with Test Stand, but I can't get the "general idea" behind their functioning.
So my question is: can someone of you indicate me where I can find something like a tutorial or a brief descriptions of available APIs or a simple example just to get some inspiration?
Or maybe the answer is a big red RTFM and I can only study deeper available examples?
Thanks,
Andrea

Hello,
The simple Operator interface is the simplest example available... You've got to start here.
TestStand API is far from behing simple.
TestStand reference manual and the poster API are a good place to start.

  • How to develop a simple plugin for adobe illustrator cs2 using xcode on mac os

    I would like to know the steps to develop a simple plug-in for adobe illustrator cs2 using xcode on mac OS...anything like a dialog box displaying "hello World"... I m new to MAC OS...Please help...
    Thanks in advance

    Get the SDK and start playing with the sample plug-ins. Asking for something as general as "how do I get started" is asking a little much from this forum :) Try your hand at the SDK and come back to ask more specific questions as you run into them.
    Bear in mind that this isn't an Xcode forum either, though I'm sure there are places to get good help on that!

  • How To Develop a Simple WebService App XI Scenarios

    Hi,
    How can I develop A simple Webservice for any scenario, for example, if am doing File to file scenario, and i want to develop a Webservice for the same scenario,
    I think in ID we have an option Under Tools "Define Webservice" where in we can use wsdl format of the message interfaces.
    How should i proceed to develop the Webservice?
    Regards,
    Varun

    Hi Varun,
    After creating the wsdl file u can deploy using MS visual studio.
    Follow the steps and run the scenario.
    use it in a Client Program in .NET : (assuming Maths as the WSDL and Webserice name)
    1.) Place maths.wsdl in C:/Sample/ folder
    2.) Open Visual studio command prompt using the Start Menu
            Start->Programs->Microsoft Visual Studio 2005->Visual Studio Tools->Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt
    3.) In the Command prompt go to that directory
        > C: 
        > CD\
        > CD Sample
        > wsdl maths.wsdl /out:"c:\sample"
    4.) The previous step will create a file called Maths.cs , go to that folder and confirm this
    5.) Open Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, open the Client application where this webservice needs to be called
    6.) If your Client application is a web application, the see if the website has a folder called "App_Code"
        If not then create this folder. Right Click on this folder and click on "Add Existing Item"
    7.) Browse to C:/sample and select the Maths.cs file
    8.) If your client is a Desktop application , just add this file in a similar manner to the project(no need of creating any folder)
    9.) After the file gets added, open Maths.cs file
    10.) Add a namespace to it for convinience
            eg:
                namespace SAP
       This should come before the Class Declaration and close it after the class
        eg: See the red lines
        namespace SAP
        /// <remarks/>
        [System.CodeDom.Compiler.GeneratedCodeAttribute("wsdl", "2.0.50727.42")]
        [System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThroughAttribute()]
        [System.ComponentModel.DesignerCategoryAttribute("code")]
        [System.Web.Services.WebServiceBindingAttribute(Name = "Equi_get_NotifBinding", Namespace = "http://Equipment_Get_Notifications")]
        public partial class Equi_get_NotifService : System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol
          functions....
    11.) Save the Maths.cs file
    12.) Open the Webform or windows form code where this webserive will be called
    13.) The webservice will now be available here under the SAP namespace
            so when u type "SAP." u will get all the classes in it.
            Add credential in this code as shown below
        eg:
        private void GetNotifications()
            try
                SAP.Equi_get_NotifService ser1 = new SAP.Equi_get_NotifService();       //This is the Webserive Proxy class
                SAP.Equi_get_Notif_Request req = new SAP.Equi_get_Notif_Request();      //Request Class
                req.Equipment = SAPID;
                req.Date = Calendar1.SelectedDate;
                System.Net.CredentialCache ch = new System.Net.CredentialCache();                                    //Adding Credentials for authentication on webservice server
                System.Net.NetworkCredential cr = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("xisuper", "infotech");
                ch.Add(new Uri(ser1.Url), "Basic", cr);
                ser1.Credentials = ch;                // Assing this Credential to the ProxyClass.Credentials property as shown here
                SAP.Equi_get_Notif_ResponseNotifications[] res = ser1.Equi_get_Notif(req);        //Call the webservice, res is the responce object
                GridView1.DataSource = res;
                GridView1.DataBind();
            catch (Exception ex)
                Response.Write(ex.Message);

  • Where can I locate more informatio​n on how the Manufactur​ing VI Example of Labview DSC was developed?

    I am greatly impressed by the process visualisations (animation of the robotic arm and conveyor system) and would like to learn how to develop similar process visualisations (to be controlled by status of tags monitored) for other custom industrial processes. In particular, how to program the animation so that it is controlled by the real-time status of the monitored tags.

    HI Don,
    There are a number of ways to do this.
    Picture controls where used in the robot example.
    Picture rings can be used to represent systems as well.
    Other interesting graphic effects can be achieved using boolean controls that have been customized with pictures.
    A simple experiment that could meet your introductory needs would use a picture ring.
    A picture ring is an indicator that accepts interger values and will display a picture that corresponds to that number.
    If you combine the picture ring with datasockets you should be able to get something started in short order.

    CR CR 2011 / "Crystal reports For Visual Studio 2010", you are correct.
    Re. the database thinggy. You can connect to a database via ODBC, OLE DB or in some instances natively. Once a report is created you an change the datasource. A good sample app on how to do this is  csharp_win_dbengine / vb_win_dbengine. A link to the samples is here:
    Crystal Reports for .NET SDK Samples - Business Intelligence (BusinessObjects) - SCN Wiki
    More info on connecting to dbs and changing them is in the developer help files:
    SAP Crystal Reports .NET SDK Developer Guide
    SAP Crystal Reports .NET API Guide
    More info on CR APIs for .NET (applies to all versions of CR and VS):
    Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005 Walkthro... | SCN
    You can also use ADO .NET Datasets and in this way you handle the database connections in your app. A good sample is csharp_win_adodotnet (also available in VB) - same link as above.
    More info on datasets:
    Crystal Reports Guide To ADO.NET
    Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET - Walkthrough - Reporting Off ADO.NET Datasets
    For more complicated operations (e.g.; changing a report from ODBC to OLE DB, changing one table, etc., you will want to use the InProc RAS SDK that is also available in CRVS. Developer help files are here:
    Report Application Server .NET SDK Developer Guide
    Report Application Server .NET API Guide
    Sample apps are here:
    NET RAS SDK Samples - Business Intelligence (BusinessObjects) - SCN Wiki
    and here:
    Crystal Reports .NET In Process RAS (Unmanaged) SDK Sample Applications
    More info on RAS SDK:
    How to Use The RAS SDK .NET With In-Process RAS Server
    Lastly, do use the search box in the top right corner. I find simple search strings such as 'crystal net parameter' return best results (KBAs, Blogs, docs, wikis, discussions and more).

  • Documentation on How to Develop an OPC Client Using LabWindows/CVI?

    What documentation is there on how to develop an OPC client application using LabWindows/CVI?  What tutorials, if any, are there?  What reference manuals, if any are there?
    I am completely new to LabWindows/CVI.  I will be starting soon with the tutorial, "Getting Started with LabWindows/CVI".  However, our application needs to communicate with an RSLinx OPC Server.  Any documentaiton on how to learn to do this would be very much appreciated.

    http://www.ni.com/white-paper/4626/en/  Just did a quick google and this came up, Labwindows CVI and Labview are quite different but I usually look at Labview examples then try take the general idea from the example and apply it in CVI, hope this helps

  • How to use GPIB communication check in LabVIEW

    There is one power supply in our office from Agilent. How to develop software for that Power supply using LabVIEW we should be able to change the
    voltage via GPIB interface.

    If you have the GPIB commands for your Agilent device in its product manual and a GPIB card, just go to Block diagram functions-> instrument i/o-> gpib and you have a set of GPIB functions.
    Also look at attached VI ( taken from labview examples shipped with labview) to get an idea on how to do GPIB write

  • How to develop web service using Intellij Idea 6.0

    How to develop web services using Intellij Idea 6.x. A sample web service and service client is needed with full procedure. Thanx in advance.

    Web service is technology not a tools that bundle with IDE.
    For example you can't say how can I develope object orented program with Eclipse.
    1- You should get some general info about SOAP, WSDL and Web sevice usage
    2- Start to implmenet a simple Hello world web service and deploy it on application(web service) server
    3- Write Client code and test it.
    for step 2,3 Apache Axis(2) could be a good solution for developement or you can use JAX-WS for sun

  • How to develop and call Asynchronous web service

    Hi All,
    I need to have a java web service that will be called asynchronously.
    That should execute, once triggered and caller shouldnt need to wait till its completion.
    How to develop and call asynchronoue web service ?
    Thanks
    Saikrishna

    Let your web service start its own background thread (*) somehow and move your business logic from web service to this thread. Then you can return from your web service. The client won't be blocked and your application will run on your server after service callout will be finished.
    I hope that's what you need. Anyway, there is only "asynchronous communication" and nothing like "asynchronous web service". At least from HTTP point of view, every call is synchronous - you have request and response.
    (*) You shouldn't start your own thread since you are in JEE world. Look at documentation for your container. E.g. for weblogic there are workers you can use this way. Or you can choose the other way. I hope that for any container you can just enqueue your web service request to any JMS queue and move your business logic to an appropriate MDB. Then, your web service will be just a simple JMS producer and your web service client won't be forced to wait for business logic to finish.
    Last but not least, next time choose a better forum. :-)
