I do not see the DAQ Assistant Express on Functions Input palette.

Software config: Windows XP machine, Traditional NI-DAQ 7.4.4 for PCI 6602. I do not see the DAQ Assistant express on Functions>>Input palette. I get error message when I place the Instrument I/O assistant on the block diagram:-" Measurement and Automation Explorer or Instrument I/O Assistant not installed correctly. Please install from LabVIEW CD". I've tried uninstalling, re-installing driver and rebooting my computer several times.

Hello PJ-SJM,
The DAQ Assistant Express VI installs with the NI-DAQmx Driver and not Traditional NI-DAQ.  The good news is that the PCI-6602 is supported in both Traditional NI-DAQ and NI-DAQmx.  Check this KnowlegeBase article to find out what version of NI-DAQmx you need and then search the Drivers and Updates page for to find the version you need.  Once you download and install the driver you should see the DAQ Assistant Express VI on your functions pallet.
The Instrument I/O Assistant is not for use with DAQ cards, it is for using other communication protocol like serial or GPIB.  However, if you need this you can install the Device Driver CD and it should work after that.  Note:  The device driver CD that came with LabVIEW should also contain the correct version of NI-DAQmx.
I hope this helps, and have a great Friday!

  • Can't see the "DAQ assistant express VI" in LabView7 express

    i am using the LabView 7 express avaluation package, and trying to use my PCI 6132 DAQ card with it.
    i cannot see the "DAQ assistant express VI" simbol in the "input" box, and therefore cannot connect to the DAQ.
    all drivers are installed, and i manage to log data directly from the DAQ, using the "Measurement & Automation" software.
    any ideas?
    doe's the evaluation version even supports this DAQ?

    GilKlar,
    Did you install DAQ first, or LabVIEW? The most common cause of this problem is that DAQ support was installed before LabVIEW support. In this case, the DAQ driver will not find any valid installations of LabVIEW and thus, will not install the necessary VIs. Please try repairing the DAQ installation and making sure that support for LabVIEW is checked.
    If this does not solve your problem, please let us know what version of the DAQ driver you are using, as well as how you are acquiring data in MAX.
    Hope this helps,

  • I am trying to install a second airport express to extend my network. When I use the aiport utility it does not see the second airport express.

    I am trying to install a second airport express to extend my network. When I use the aiport utility it does not see the second airport express.

    Suggest that you perform a Factory Default Reset as follows:
    Pull the Express from power
    Wait a few moments
    Hold in the reset button and keep holding it an additonal 8-10 seconds while you plug the Express back in to power
    Release the reset button and allow 40-45 seconds for the Express to restart
    Apple's instructions to do what you want are here:
    It will often help to temporarily connect an Ethernet cable from your Mac to the AirPort Express for the setup. Once the Express is configured, you can disconnect the Ethernet cable and move the Express to the desired location.

    Although an AirPort Extreme is shown as the extending device in the example, the setup for an AirPort Express is exactly the same

  • I do not have the daq assistant vi on my labview 2010 and have found no drivers for it what should i do

    I do not have the daq assistant vi on my labview 2010 and have found no drivers for it. I downloaded the service pack but  that did not have it either what should i do.

    Hi Youzhang He, 
    Did you install LabVIEW first on your PXIe 8102 before the drivers?  Most likely, you're missing LabVIEW support for your DAQmx drivers. Fortunately, this is an easy fix. What you should do is open Add/Remove Programs, select National Instruments Software, select Uninstall/Repair. In the window that pops up listing NI software, select NI-DAQmx 9.x and select Modify. In the window that appears, expand Application Development Support and select to install LabVIEW support.  From here complete the install process and restart your system.  LabVIEW support should be installed and DAQ Assistant should appear in your palette.

  • Is the DAQ Assistant compatible with LabView7?

    I am equipped with LabView7 and a NI DAQ-Pad 6015 and am trying to monitor temperature using two thermocouples. I have searched for some tutorials online but most suggest using DAQ assistant, which is not listed in the input section of my functions palette. I have downloaded the most recent NI-DAQmx driver which is supposed to be compatible with LabView 7.x. I'm not sure if this means that it is compatible with LabView 7.0. I still do not see the DAQ assistant appear.
    Any help or suggestions (about DAQ assistant or how to program in LabView7 to solve my problem) is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have installed DAQmx 8.1 and now the DAQ assistance appears. However, when I select Analog Input >> Temperature >> Thermocouple and arrive at the physical channels screen, it says "No supported devices found."
    I also notice that when I open the Measurement & Automation explorer, it does not appear to detect my DAQ pad, even though the light on it is blinking Ready. A window pops up and says "Can not find RTE directory: C:\Windows\system32\cvirte" followed by "Unable to open c:\program files\national instruments\max\bin\cvirte.rsc". After clicking okay to both windows, I check under Devices and Interfaces to see that my DAQpad 6015 is not listed.
    Previously before I had uninstalled everything and reinstalled using DAQmx 8.1 my device was detected, but now it doesn't seem to be detected anymore.
    Also, I just realized that while it says everywhere that I have LabView7, when I start the program, the opening window has LabView7 Express written on it. I hope this isn't the cause of all the troubles.

  • Can't open properties window of DAQ assistant express VI.

    I have a program which uses DAQ assistant express VI's, reading several channels from a NI PCI-6220 card. Its been working fine for months but now some of the channels have started acting up, noise and oscillations that are not real. I've solved this problem by changing channels before but now when I try to open up the properties window of the DAQ assistant express VI to change channels, by double clicking the icon, or by right clicking and selecting properties, nothing happens! The cursor changes to a hourglass for a second and no window pops up. I've recently upgraded from 7.0 to 8.0 but that shouldn't make a difference, and even when I tried creating a new VI, and a new DAQ assistant express VI it won't work on this either. I've tried looking at security settings etc. but no joy. Any ideas?

    I would try uninstalling DAQ and reinstall.  Not scientific but in most cases will fix the issue of the DAQ assistant.

  • I'm attempting to transfer files, address book, etc from an external hard drive to my new Mac-mini using migration assistant.  The external drive is showing up on my desktop but Migration Assistant is not seeing the drive when searching for devices

    I'm attempting to migrate files, address book, maile, etc to my new Mac Mini using an external hard drive and Migration assistant.  I followed the instructions on using Migration Assistant to do this but Migration Assistant is not seeing the external drive, which is displayed on my desktop

    I've been chasing this problem all afternoon. I had to reformat my internal drive on my MBP and reinstall Mountain Lion   Start up assistant wouldn't see my extrnal drive with the Time Machine files on it.  After many tries, I skipped the restore there and let the system boot.  I could see my external drive from Finder and the files looked OK.  I was told to use Migration Assistant and it had the same problem.
    I saw a hint on one of these posts that the icon that you see and is label Macintosh HD is actually your backup disk and it is telling you that it has a copy of your internal Macintosh HD.  I went ahead and told it to continue and it started to restore my apps, settings, and documents.  It's been going for a couple of hours, and is close to being done.  I expect to see my old system restored when it is finished.
    Wish that Apple would put some type of note that it is seeing the backup. That is most confusing and seems to be a problem for lots of users.
    It's been a month or so since your post  Did your get it to work?

  • Hello, I'm trying to connect my new TiVo XL4 box to my home network via an ethernet cable connection to my Airport Express but the TiVo box is not seeing the network. I have a green light emanating from the Airport Express so it is connected. Plz advise.

    Hello, I'm trying to connect my new TiVo XL4 box to my home network via an ethernet cable connection to my Airport Express but the TiVo box is not seeing the network. I have a green light emanating from the Airport Express so it is connected. Please advise.

    If you have not already done so, I suggest that you temporarily disconnect the Ethernet cable from the AirPort Express that goes to the Tivo box.
    Instead, turn off the wireless on a laptop and connect the laptop to the Ethernet port on the Express. See if you can get an Internet connection on the laptop.
    If you still cannot get an Internet connection on the laptop, try another Ethernet cable that you know is working correctly.
    Post back on your results.

  • I have just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements onto my Mac Book Pro (10.9.4) and attempted to use Elements on an existing Photoshop file.  I did not see the Elements option in my filter menu and need assistance

    I have just downloaded a trial version of Photoshop Elements onto my Mac Book Pro (10.9.4).  The installation to my hard drive went fine so I attempted to use Elements on an existing Photoshop file.  I did not see the Elements option in my filter menu and am uncertain as to how to "add" the Elemnts to my existing filter choices.  Please advise.

    I'm sorry but it's very hard to understand what you mean. What filter menu? In which program? Do you mean you're trying to use PSE as an external editor with some other asset management program? Which one?

    Hello
    You need to run your VI once. Wire the Select Signals express VI to your DAQ Assistant and run the VI once (this allows the signal names to propegate).

  • Fourier Transform and the DAQ Assistant

    Hi,
    I'm trying to take the fourier transform of a analog voltage measurement in Labview 8.6 and I'm having a problem with the data.
    The measurement is an anaolog input voltage signal taken using the USB-6211 box.  I am acquiring the signal on ports 15 and 16 (differential) with the DAQ Assistant at a rate of 5KHz, 200 samples.  The setup works perfect thankfully, and a very nice waveform plot is generated on the VI.  I would now like to add a fourier transform of this plot to do some frequency analysis.
    I found the FFT function, but when I tried to add the DAQ output to it, I got an error about dynamic data.  It takes me to a screen which I don't understand about dynamic data conversion, and I'm not sure what to do from this point.  My FFT graph is basically just a flat white line, which is wrong.
    How can I just take the basic fourier transform of a waveform in this setup?

    Hi
    Your thinking is not bad. You have only some scaling problems. You may toy with the vi I am sending. Change the log/linear control and see the result.
    You will find all information you need here http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/4541 and http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/4541. The dt value is the reciprocal of the sample frequency(1/x) The unit is second, and it will give you the time interval between two samples.
    Also note how I use the "Dynamic To Waveform Array.vi" to convert the dynamic data. This VI is not documented by NI, but you find it here ...vi.lib\express\express shared\transition.llb\Dynamic To Waveform Array.vi
    Good luck
    Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted
    (Sorry no Labview "brag list" so far)

  • Missing wire connectors on DAQ Assistant express VI's

    I'm seeing some strange behavior on one specific computer running LabVIEW. The problem is that DAQ Assistant VI's have no connector points. I have nine other identical computers (used in a classroom setting) but I don't see this behavior on the others (I haven't tested them all).
    I've removed LabVIEW (and all other NI software) and re-installed it (LabVIEW v 8.6.1). I also tried a more recent version of LabVIEW (2010?). Same behavior, no connector dots on DAQ Assistant VI's.
    The computers use DAQmx with USB hardware (cDAQ).
    I guess my next step is to format the hard drive and re-install everything. My theory is there's some kind of driver corruption. What do you think?

    Allie,
    Here are the steps I use to create the Express VI using the DAQ Assistant:
    * On the block diagram:
    Right click -> Measurement I/O -> MX -> DAQ Assistant
    * Drop Blue box on block diagram.
    * Configuration Screen Appears
    Aqcuire Signals -> Analog Input -> Voltage -> Dev1 (USB 9219) -> ai0 -> Finish
    * Voltage Input Setup Appears
    Accept default settings -> click OK
    * Voltage Input screen disappears, a blue DAQ Assistant appears on block diagram. No connection points.
    When I execute the exact same procedure on another computer I get a DAQ Assistant with connection points.
    Weird eh?
    thanks!

  • How do I include all the necessary files required for the DAQ Assistant to create an executable file?

    I am creating an executable file to run on a computer that does not have LabVIEW installed.  The problem is that I am using the DAQ Assistant.  The VI Hierarchy is rather large, and I am not sure how to include all of the required files to eliminate the error "The full development version of LabVIEw is required to fix the errors."  Attached is an image of the VI Hierarchy.

    Yes I did create an installer.  See image installernoDAQmx.jpg  
    When this is all I do I get an error that subvi is not included, a list of about 6 subvi's.  To eliminate this error I manually add the subvi from the dependencies list to the my computer list. This allows me to add them as support files.  This eliminates the error about subvi not included, but then I get the error I spoke of earlier.
    If I include the DAQmx I get an error.  See image installererror.jpg
    Not sure what MAX refers to?

  • How to deal with the Error-89130 about the DAQ assistant?

    Once prss the "test" button of the DAQ assistant, the "Error-89130 occurred at DAQ Assistant" show up. It`s no doublt that the labview programme with a DAQ assistant  can`t be run and instead  the " Error-88303 occurred at DAQMx star Task Vi:1" or " Error-88304..." show up while other labview programme without DAQ assistant can run corrrectly. I have reseted or reinstalled the DAQmx, but it didn`t work.  Any other ideas for troubleshooting this? Thanks

    Please refer to this KB, and see whether it works. If problem also exists, please tell the DAQmx version and the DAQ card name.
