How to make an instrument driver appear in toolbox

Hi,
i created an instrument driver using the create new instrument driver project option.  I have all the VIs in place in the project and have saved the whole thing, library and all into the instr.lib folder and have restarted labview and the VIs are still not showing up under instrument i/o -> instrument drivers option.  could someone please go over the process or just tell me what i might be missing to have these drivers show up in the toolbox!
Thanks for help,
brent schenk
Solved!
Go to Solution.

From the Getting Started Menu >> Browse
From the Create New window >> project >> project from wizard >> Instrument driver project
select New driver from template
select the type of instrument you have
Click next
**Make sure the project location is correct. I think this is where you are going wrong.**
It should say something like, C://Program Files/National Instruments/LabVIEW 8.5/instr.llb/yourproject/yourproject.lvproj
If you have this directory correct, it should show up under the instrument library

  • How do I make an instrument driver without VISA ?

    I need to make an instrument driver for a temperature controller without VISA.

    Why do you not want to use VISA? Is the instrument serial, GPIB, USB, Ethernet, VXI? There are alternatives to all of these without using VISA but VISA supports all.

    Why can't you provide specific instructions here in HT203909 (Boot Camp: Creating an ISO image from a Windows installation DVD) about how to make the USB drive bootable?  The article referenced for partitioning the drive is not dedicated to Bootcamp--too long, too many options.  How do you make it bootable?

    If your BC Assistant shows the option to create a USB Installer, it automatically is marked as bootable. There is no need to have manual intervention to make a bootable USB. Once the process is manually modified, it is supported by the person modifying it.
    You have two or three options (depending on your Mac Model).
    1. Create USB... - Use a USB2 flash drive, which is erased and formatted. If your Mac supports ISOs then BCA will prompt for the Media. Any Mac which does not have a built-in Optical drive will support an ISO. There are specific Mac models which support both, DVD and USB based installation.
    2. Download Software from Apple servers...
    3. Install Windows...
    Are any additional instructions really necessary?

  • How to make Automatically Device driver installation in Win 7/WIn 8 when using RNDIS in Windows Compact

    We are developing a precision instrument that measures Temperature, Pressure and humidity used in the pharmaceutical industry.
    The Instrument is based on Windows Embedded Compact (7.0)
    WE establish a TCP communication vi a USB connection. This is done by the RNDIS Driver.
    When we connect the instrument to a PC we have to do the following in Windows:
    http://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/how-to-install-microsoft-rndis-driver-for-windows-7
    The INF that is used is then C:\Windows\inf\rndiscmp.inf
    We want this to be executed automatically
    The way it is automated is by setting the correct entry’s in the registration database on the Instruments. In Windows CE registration database.
    On
    http://www.usb.org/developers/defined_class we think we must set Base Class = EFh, SubClass = 04h and Protocol = 01h.
    But how is this done in the registry on the device?
    Who can help me :-)

    Hi Mads,
    changes in "rndisfn.h" in public folder have no influance on your project, because those files are not built at all. Visual Studio will use this one anyway (which is already built): C:\WINCE700\public\common\oak\target\armv7\retail\rndisfn.dll
    To make use of Microsoft public code, you have to clone this code - that is copy selected source files to BSP folder and adjust DIRS files to include new data in the compilation process.
    To clone RNDIS component, copy rndis folder from C:\WINCE700\public\common\oak\drivers\UsbFn\class
    to C:\WINCE700\platform\YOUR_BSP\Src\COMMON\USBFN.
    Edit source file C:\WINCE700\platform\YOUR_BSP\Src\COMMON\USBFN\rndis\rndisfn\sources:
    DOSYSGEN=1
    TARGETDEFNAME=RNDISFN
    TARGETNAME=RNDISFN
    TARGETTYPE=DYNLINK
    DLLENTRY=_DllEntryCRTStartup
    SOURCES= \
    rndisfn.cpp \
    TARGETLIBS= \
    $(_COMMONSDKROOT)\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\ndis.lib \
    $(_COMMONOAKROOT)\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\ceddk.lib \
    $(_SYSGENSDKROOT)\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\coredll.lib
    SOURCELIBS=\
    $(SG_OUTPUT_ROOT)\platform\$(_TGTPLAT)\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\rndismini2.lib \
    $(_PUBLICROOT)\common\oak\lib\$(_CPUINDPATH)\ufnclientlib.lib
    Finally, edit C:\WINCE700\platform\YOUR_BSP\Src\COMMON\USBFN\dirs to include your new component (folder) in the build process:
    DIRS=\
    RNDISKITL \
    RNDIS \
    System will build now new rndisfn.dll, which will replace the original one in the public directory. I hope I didn't forget anything...

  • How to make my iPhoto Library appear in Finder under Favorites

    I have recently istalled the 10.8 on my iMac. The hard drive has been formated new. At that occasion the old iPhoto Library has been copied (and updated later on). It´s location is in Pictures folder. My question is : can I have it separately as an icon - the way it was before - in Favorites.
    This is how it looks now when I open the Finder.
    [IMG]http://i44.tinypic.com/10h7ec1.jpg[/IMG]
    The iPhoto appears as "a document" and not as an icon.. there is no way I can attach a photo from the Library to an email.. or anywhere else.
    How to make this work right?
    Many thanks.

    Well you click the attach file button and then follow my detailed instructions
    When sending from a browser based mail use the media browser (in the attach window in the lower left hand corner under media ==> photos ==> iPhoto)
    For all supported access methods see the user tip on accessing your iPhoto files -https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/iphoto?view=documents
    Or open and read the link I provided which as states included all supported access methods

  • How to make newly added columns appear In IR report

    Hi.
    I am using APEX 4.0.1. I've created an IR report and then, subsequently, needed to add several column sto the underlying SQL query.
    When I save the changes, APEX tells me that it will add the new columns and that I need to run the IR report and either click "Reset" or use the Actions menu to make the new columns appear in the report. I did the latter and the new columns do appear just fine.
    However, when I then tried to modify the column labels, I am unable to see these in the report "Attributes" section. And so, I can't access their labels.
    How do I get the new columns to appear in the Attributes section of the iR report?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Elie

    Hi, LittleFoot (sorry, I don't see your actual name).
    Thanks very much for responding.
    I've done exactly what you've described.
    I added several new column sto the SQL query underlying the IR. I then re-ran the default Primary report, added the new columns via the Actions -> Select menus, and then saved the report.
    When I then go into the IR Attributes page, the new columns are not there. I've closed/re-opened my browser. I don't know what the issue is.
    I'm wondering ... would the fact that the underlying query is SELECTing from a view rather than a table make any difference? I wouldn't think it would.
    Thank you for any help.

  • How to make Address Book photos appear in .Mac contacts?

    How do you make the photos from your Address Book appear on your .Mac account? The new .Mac interface leaves space for photos in the contact cards, but I cannot figure out how to make the photos from my Address Book appear there. Is it possible to syncronize in a way that syncs photos too?
    Thanks for any help on this.

    I have the same problem, my photo IDs from my computer Address Book will not sync with my .Mac account. I've asked two Creatives @ the Apple Store in Burlingame CA but they did not know the answer. I also ask the deminstrator of .Mac at MacWorld but when he accessed the Demo version at the show it too was void of pictures. All those who I've asked promassed to get back to me but hae not yet. My only conclusion is it doesn't work but may working in future versions. Does anyone have their .mac Address Book show the picture ID photo's from their computer version or know how to desplay these ID photo's on line?
    Best regards,

  • How to make a triage drive of my own

    i noticed what apple stores use for triage drives. a firewire drive that powers off the port like a USB drive. And when it loads it has 10.4 and 10.5 and utilities and such. I would like to have my own, instead of lugging all the dvds around. Any suggestions? do i just make images of 10.4 and 10.5? I want it for my own machine. Anybody got some clues how to make one?
    Thanks a bunch guys

    I have a 360 GB portable external drive (I got mine from Small Dog Electronics). I partitioned it so that there was a partition large enough to hold the OS and all of my recovery/troubleshooting software (TechTools, DiskWarrior, etc...). I think my 10.4 partition was about 5-7 GB, but I used 15 for 10.5. I left the rest of the hard drive as portable storage (movies, music, photos and so on), but if you really wanted to, you could do separate partitions for different versions of the system (10.4, 10.5 and so on).
    Simply attach the external drive to your computer, boot from the OS install disk, and install to the external disk. Now boot from that external, and install your utilities. Make sure you run any updates to the utilities while booted from that drive.

  • How to make a digital camera appear as a connected drive

    How do I make a connected digital camera appear as a drive on the desktop instead of opening iPhoto?
    Thanks!

    Depends on what camera you have - to stop iPhoto form launching go to the iPhoto preferences and set action when a camera is connected to do nothing
    Some cameras mount to the desktop and some do not - for example few if any Cannon cameras mount - most Sony do - depends on the manufacture and how they implemented things

  • How to make the whole shebang appear in itunes window

    Because my 25" Asus monitor is on the blink I'm using my 19" Asus monitor, both purchased new last year.  Problem is that the 19", which displayed itunes perfectly before, now cuts the podcast list in half vertically and I have to use the horizontal arrow to see the right hand half of the display when I'm looking at the podcast list.  But when I download and have a download list, there's no horizontal arrow and the name of the podcast is not displayed at all, just the name of that particular episode.  So I have to play each one while it's on the podcast download list in order to make the name of the podcast appear in the little oval window on top for the currently playing podcast.  How do I make the itunes window display its whole contents at once?  The maximize button doesn't help--it's already maximized

    Hi,
    Yes. It is already blank. But the cost element field still not appears when we create activity service. It shows :
    Please specify a valid account assignment
    Message no. SE181
    Diagnosis
    You have entered an account assignment category in the document item for which an account assignment is mandatory.
    All account assignment lines in the service specifications either have been deleted or are inactive (e.g. account assignment lines of a contingency item).
    Procedure
    Please enter an account assignment for the services or value limits.
    The entry of an account assignment is unnecessary if you choose "unknown account assignment" in the document item.

  • How to make a background image appear to grow slowly as text happens front

    How do I make a background image which is simply a static image of Earth in space "seem to grow closer" by just slowly enlarging the image as text appears in front of it? Can't seem to find anything intuitive on how to accomplish this. I'm sure it's simple but I just can't seem to wrap my brain around it.

    Double click your image to load it into the viewer. On the top of the viewer are 3 tabs, select the one that says "Motion." Inside of this tab you can animate any video or still image. For what you are wanting to do the Scale option will be the place to start. I think Scale is pretty self-explanatory, but just in case...click the keyframe button and type in a number for the scale (like 90). Scrub down a bit with the playhead and type in a new number next to scale (like 175). A new keyframe is created and you have yourself a zoom in.

  • How to make most recent messages appear at the top of the list?

    I can not find a place in Mail preferences to make my messages in each mailbox ALWAYS appear with the most recent at the top of the list. They seem to revert to the reverse order, even though I laboriously change the order in each mailbox via clicking the top of the date column. I am using primarily .Mac addresses in IMAP format, and three computers. It seems that after I shut down, then restart the next day and my computers all sycn with .Mac, the order goes back to oldest first. How can I fix this? Thanks!

    Everytime i have used webmail, the view is always retained with my previous settings. In fact the .Mac web mail help menu says the same thing (see below)
    Therefore the last thing i would recommend is to simply reset safari (which will empty the cache), delete all your Mail plist files, and not turn .Mac sync on fully until all systems are sorting consistently on their own....
    (from the .mac help menu)
    ===================
    Sorting message lists
    When you use .Mac Mail on the web, you can sort your messages, drafts, and sent messages lists by their column headers. Sorting is helpful when you want to quickly locate specific emails or groups of emails, such as all messages received from a specific sender or all flagged messages.
    To sort a message list:
    If you're not already in .Mac Mail on the web, go to www.mac.com and click Mail (at the top of the page), and log in.
    Access a message list by opening a folder.
    Click any column header to sort the list by that parameter. Clicking the same column header again reverses the order in which the list is sorted.
    When you sort a message list, all email messages in the list are sorted, not just those showing on the current page.
    Column headers vary slightly by list. The Drafts list, for example, has no From column.
    After you have sorted a list, it retains that order until you re-sort it.
