How to use Labview drivers for USB-CAN Adapter

Hi,
I just recently started working with CAN and I have a PCAN-USB adapter. I'm trying to create a programme for monitoring a series of CAN based devices and I've found Labview drivers at the link below. However, I'm not really sure how to start. I have the specs for the device but I don't know how to proceed.
Should I create messages and channels and a data base in MAX first? If anyone has programmed with this dongle before please give me a guide how you went about it.
Labview drivers - http://www.labviewportal.eu/en/device-i-o/82-pcan-usb-driver.
Thanks

I have not used this specific CAN adapter, but I have used other CAN adapters from both NI and other companies. The CAN database in MAX is useful only if you are using an NI CAN device. For all other CAN devices you need to use the format that the library uses; most likely that will be raw CAN frames.
If you do want to use the NI-CAN interface on top of the PCAN library, you can use NI-CAN virtual channels 255 and 256. These are internally connected, so that anything you send on one is received on the other. This makes it possible to do translation between raw frames and channels defined in a database, by opening one interface for frames and the other for channels. You read raw frames from the real device and send them to CAN255, then read them on CAN256; for writing, you do the opposite. However, this still requires understanding how to read and write raw frames on the underlying device, so I'd start there.

LabView drivers for USB to DMX512 hardware

Anyone find any hardware (USB to DMX512) that is supported by LabView (i.e. LabView drivers)?

I'm
not aware of any DMX-512 interfaces that come with a LabVIEW API.
However, most of those interfaces come as PCI cards or as
serial-to-DMX512 converters.
In the first case, there is always a
DLL to communicate with the PCI card and you can use LabVIEW's Call
Library Node to call that DLL from your LabVIEW code.
Quite a few
DMX-512 converters are connected through RS232 (or RS485) and LabVIEW
as built-in support for the serial port. This seems to be the easiest
approach. Here is a link to a Discussion forum which discusses this:

Is it possible (and as easy as for GPIB) to develop labview drivers for USB devices?

I dont want to use GPIB at all, just USB.
Thank you in advance.

The best way to call your USB device would be through your USB driver. The third party device vendor should provide a driver (dll) that can be called from LabVIEW using Call Library Node.

Are there LabVIEW drivers for the MCC USB-501 temperature logger

I am looking to purchase the MCC USB-501 and use it to acquire the ambient temperature on an event driven basis. The data logging portion is something I am interested in, I just want to have my application acquire the tempture when a certain event occurs. Does anyone have any LabVIEW drivers for this device?

I don't know what you mean by using a logger that collects data on an "event driven basis".
It is nifty little device, but it basically does one thing. It logs data. You load the software, configure it for when to start an how often to log data, unplug it, and put it where you want to log the temperature. When you're done, you get it plug it back in and download the data that was logged.
There is no way to configure it to react to events. It's possible that a LabVIEW driver exists for this, but all it would do is provide an alternate way of downloading the data instead of using the software that comes with it. It is not an immediate or interactive piece of hardware like a normal data acquisition card would be.

Labview drivers for agilent e4432b ,can`t find way to control multitone ???

labview drivers for agilent e4432b ,can`t find way to control multitone ???How to deal with it
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello Brownheart,
Drivers for box instruments are not meant to cover all applications of an instruments use, only the most common uses. Regardless of discussing whether multitone is a common use for this instrument, a cursory examination of the available functions in the driver does not reveal this functionality.
What you will have to do is create your own config VI using the information from the programming manual of the device. Not ideal, but at least the provided NI driver gives you a starting point from which to add this functionality.

Can i use the lightning to usb camera adapter for sony cybershotdsc-w380

DDoes anyone know how to use a lightning to sub camera adapter for a Sony cyber shot doc-w830

This discussion may help.
It mostly depends on the camera. Some cameras have a Transfer Mode, which does not attempt to charge while transferring pictures. does yours have such a setting?
Alternatively you can try to plug a powered USB hub between the camera and the USB connector so the power is provided by the HUB rather than the iPad.
Other than that, yes the Memory card reader may be a better option assuming your Camera uses Secure Digital (SD) type memory cards.

Can any one please tell me how to write labview program for data logging in electric motor bike.

Can any one please tell me how to write labview program for data logging in electric motor bike. I am going to use CompactRIO for getting wide range of data from various sensors in bike. I need to write labview program for data logging of temperature, voltage and speed of the bike. Can any one help me?

Yes, we can.
I think the best place for you to start for this is the NI Developer Zone. I recommend beginning with these tutorials I found by searching on "data log rio". There were more than just these few that might be relevant to your project but I'll leave that for you to decide.

These will probably give you links to more topics/tutorials/examples that can help you design and implement your target system.

Labview drivers for Omega OM-DAQ-USB-2401

This DAQ is a thermocouple/voltage input USB device. Omega does not provide Labview drivers for it, but it does have .NET/API drivers for Visual Basic, C#, and Visual C++. Has anyone been able to build a driver for this device in order to get measurements from it in Labview? I've read the USB Instrument Control Tutorial, but am not sure if this would be of any help with this type of device. I simply want to use the DAQ output (voltage measurement) as a variable in Labview to control other devices with an NI 9472.

I have not used these specific devices, but I have used a lot of Omega product in the past and they tend to sell good stuff. They do have a tendency to resell a lot of stuff too. So one thing that might be worthwhile is to see if this box is really theirs or if they are reselling hardware from somebody else.
Having said that, give the .net a try. The examples in the other languages should give you the basic flow of what calls you need to make to accomplish common tasks -- like reading a value.
Mike...
PS: it also might be interesting to plug the thing in to your computer and after letting it load whatever drivers it needs, see what kind of device the OS thinks it is.

GSX, if you're referring to Apple's service by that name, is available only to employees of Apple-authorized service providers or self-servicing accounts. Unless you are employed by such an organization, you cannot access GSX. If you are employed by such an organization, they should set you up and give you the appropriate login information.
If you are interested in becoming a certified Apple hardware technician, you can find information here:
http://training.apple.com/certification/acmt
Please note, though, that certification does not in and of itself give you access to any of the Apple resouces for support organizations; diagnostic tools, parts ordering, etc. You again must be employed by an authorized Apple support provider before you can gain such access.
I have no idea what "knowlaged" might be.

Thanks for suggestion but HP Support Center don't support the HP Deskjet 3520 e.
Our old iMac wont upgrade to "snow-leopard" - the drivers supplied with the printer are not backwards compatible beyond IOS 10.6. We are max-updated at 10.4.11.
Tried a "gimp" (?) set of drivers which goes through an auto-install but I can't see or select the drivers.
Find it hard to believe that there is no solution

Can any one suggest me how to use drawPixels method for 40 series devices

Hello!
I am using drawPixels method of DirectGraphics class the code I have written is :-
Image offscreen=DirectUtils.createImage(width,height,0x00000000);// width and heights are integer value
public final int MODEL=DirectGraphics.TYPE_INT_8888_ARGB ;
Graphics offgra = offscreen.getGraphics();
DirectGraphics directgraphics = DirectUtils.getDirectGraphics(offgra);
directgraphics.drawPixels(imgData,false,0,width,0,0,width,height,0,MODEL); // imgData is a int array(int imgData[]) which contains required pixels of image.
The above code is working fine with NOKIA 60 series device but when i use it with NOKIA 40 series device it gives java.lang.IllegalArgumentException.
same time if i use :-
directgraphics.drawPixels(imgData,false,0,width,0,0,width,height,0,DirectGraphics .TYPE_USHORT_4444_ARGB ) ;
// imgData is a short array(short imgData[]) which contains required pixels of image. i have used different formet here.
it works fine with 40 series device,
can any one suggest me how to use drawPixels method for 40 series devices with format
DirectGraphics .TYPE_INT_8888_ARGB .

If Remote wipe is activated it can't be undone. And Once the Wipe is done, the device can nö longer be tracked.
Sorry.

Step 4: Install the Boot Camp Drivers for Windows
After installing Windows, install Mac-specific drivers and other software for Windows using your Mac OS X installation disc. The Mac OS X disc installs drivers to support Mac components, including AirPort,built-in iSight camera, the Apple Remote, the trackpad on a portable Mac, and thefunction keys on an Apple keyboard.
The Mac OS X disc also installs the Boot Camp control panel for Windows and theApple Boot Camp system tray item.
To install the Boot Camp drivers:
1 Eject the Windows installation disc.
2 Insert the Mac OS X disc. If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
3 Follow the onscreen instructions.
If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.
Windows that appear only briefly during the installation don’t require your input.
If nothing appears to be happening, there may be a hidden window that you mustrespond to. Check the taskbar and look behind open windows.
Important: Do not click the Cancel button in any of the installer dialogs.
4 After your computer restarts, follow the instructions in the Found New Hardware Wizard to update your software drivers (Windows XP only).
5 Follow the instructions for any other wizards that appear.
6 Check for updated Boot Camp drivers by using Apple Software Update or going to www.apple.com/support/bootcamp.
If You Have Problems Installing the Device Drivers
If it appears that the Boot Camp drivers weren’t successfully installed, try repairing them.
To repair Boot Camp drivers:
1 Start up your computer in Windows.
2 Insert your Mac OS X installation disc.
3 If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
4 Click Repair and follow the onscreen instructions.
If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.
If you need to reinstall specific drivers, you can install one driver at a time. For example,if your built-in iSight camera isn’t working, you can reinstall just the iSight driver.
Individual drivers are in the Drivers folder on the Mac OS X installation disc.

Labview drivers for Zeiss A1 Microscope motorized stage

Hi,
Anyone tried to control the motorized stage of Zeiss Axioobserver A1 using Labview before? We have one in our lab. I am trying to get it work recently. I found NI has labview drivers for Zeiss Z1 and M1 model. The Z1 is the fully motorized version of A1 we have. So I think they should have the same motorized stage. But the Labview stage control drivers for the stage on Zeiss Z1 does not work for our stage. Has anyone done this before? Thank you!

Hi Cole,
The Labview version I have is 2010. The VISA version I had before is 4.1 so I updated it to 5.1.2. But I still met the same problem. The microscope is connected to the computer via a USB/CAN converter. I put the screen shot of this USB in attachment. When I try to run it from the VISA interactive control, it shows the error:Could not perform operation because of I/O error. (in the attachment)
I can detect this USB from the drvier wizard (see attacment3 ). But when I click next and install the inf files, it shows an error window (see attachment 4). This problem does not happen before I updated the VISA from 4.1 to 5.1.2. I have the inf file generated from the VISA 4.1 version (see attachment 5 and 6). But I can not generate the file from the 5.1.2 version. Will that be a big problem?
Do you have any ideas about this?
Thank you very much!
Best
Wei

I have the same problem with my T400 updated to Win 7 pro. Not happy.

LabView drivers for Agilent 54830B scope or E4402B Spectrum Analyzer?

Where can I find LabView drivers for the Agilent 54830B scope and the E4402B spectrum analyzer, or at least a driver for another instrument in the same families that I could modify? There are none on the NI site or the Agilent site.

One thing that I have done several times is get a LabWindows CVI
driver from Agilent. You will be provided with a .fp file. LabVIEW
has a link under the Tools>>Instrumentation menu that allows you to
"Import CVI Instrument Driver." This will take the function calls
from CVI and build a set of VI's with the same name. The vi's will be
wrappers for a dll that is used by CVI and other text based languages.
