There is a lot of examples for the TCP/IP protocol if that's the protocol that is supported by the device. Open Example Finder and do a search.

I want to do communication via ethernet using TCP/IP

i want to do communication via ethernet using TCP/IP i did it but code is runing but im not getting any output

Look on this easy example: http://www.labviewtutorial.eu/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=328
You will find there two identical VIs (only port numbers are different). One is for PC1 and other for PC2. If you will get prodlems starting VIs, so look on your firewall settings, you have to unlock ports used in these VIs.

Tough Decision: Gmail Web Interface or Gmail Via Pop Using Mac Mail

Thought I would open a discussion about this since I have been having a tough time making a decision. I love using Gmail's web interface but hate losing the integration with Mac OS. I forward all my email from different providers to my Gmail so I can access all my email from any computer. This is very handy for me.
I have tried using the mail app to access gmail via pop, but one thing I hate is when I reply to an email from a different provider than gmail it will use the gmail reply address. Gmail's web interface will use the account that the email was sent to as the reply address automatically.
I am almost certain that others are in the same quandry as I am. If so, what is your solution?
20" iMac Mac OS X (10.4.7)

You can enter the email addresses for your other providers in Mail and have them show up in a pop-up menu when you compose new mail; then you can select which address to use as the outgoing mail address.
Go to Mail->Preferences->Accounts, and undeer the Account Information, look for the Email Address field (below the Description filed). Enter your other email addresses in there, separated by commas, then close the Preferences and Save the changes.
Now create a new email and the pop-up menu should let you choose which email address will show up on the email.

I Need some info about interfacing the PC or laptop to Spectrum analyzer using Labview

we need to control the spectrum analyzer using an interface that will be developed using Labview .
Spectrum analyzer will be connected to tha PC using RS 232C and the waveform observed will be seen in the PC interface of spectrum analyzer.
Pls send some info regarding dis.

Using a spectrum analyzer with LabVIEW is a pretty common application, my first program 15 years ago did this. What we need to know to help you though is what model spectrum analyzer are you planning on using? Most of the ones I'm familiar with use the GPIB interface rather than RS232, but that isn't a major issue, the spectrum analyzers command set is the important one. There are a lot of LabVIEW drivers available for a larger number of analyzers, here on the National Instruments' site. Although most use the GPIB interface (or ethernet), they can be used as a starting point to develop an RS232 driver if one isn't available, assuming that there is a driver for the model that you have, or a closely related one (manufacturers frequently use similar command sets within a model type).
So, what type analyzer are you using, and what types of things are you planning on doing with it?

Communication via RS232 with a Kollmorgen Servostar 300 using LabView.

Hello,

Sorry I am new posting a message here and I post it before I was able to describe my problem.
I have a Kollmorgen Servostar 300 to control an AKM24F motor and I would like to send the instructions to the controller via RS232 using LabView. I think I had achieved communication from a PC to a Servostar 300 using LabView via the serial port.
So far I have setup in LabView the configuration of the RS232 (8 bit, no parity, baud rate 38 400), the address of the servostar (ADDR 0), the way the servostar should respond to the host (PROMPT 1) and the error flag (MSG 1), and no error had been detected when I run the program. I should mentioned that after I sent an instruction such as ADDR 0 terminated with a carriage return, I set a delay time of 150 ms, then I read the amount of bytes that are in the buffer, and then I read the buffer, as I mentioned no error message has appear and the ADDR 0 instruction is read from the buffer. Following the same procedure I sent an instruction to move the motor but nothing happens.
So far I am not sure if the way I am trying to communicate with the servostar is the correct or if I am missing something, any guidance that anyone my give would be greatly appreciated.

Since the only thing that changed is the Launchpad, then that must be the issue. Are you sure this device can handle more than just the 9600 baud rate? Are you sure you are even setting the baud rate on this device?

Process Failure when communicating over MODBUS using LabVIEW 2011 and DSC

I'm currently trying to read from a PLC's holding registers using MODBUS/TCP. I've confirmed that the PLC is updating the values and responding to MODBUS communication correctly using a third party program called Modbus Poll. However, when I try to poll the PLC using LabVIEW's shared variable engine, I am unable to read any values from the same addresses that I'm viewing with Modbus Poll.
My setup simply consists of a PC connected directly to the PLC over Ethernet, with no router in between. I am using LabVIEW 2011 SP1 with the DSC module.
I opened the NI Distributed Systems Manager to view the status of all shared variables in the Modbus library that I created and I've noticed that the CommFail bit is permanently set to "true". All other variables with a "read" access mode report "Process Failure". I've tried restarting the process as well as stopping and starting the local variable engine with no success. I've also restarted my computer several times to see if any services were failing, but this does not seem to have fixed the problem.
I finally resorted to monitoring communications over the network card that I have the PLC plugged into via Ethernet using Wireshark and I've found that while Modbus Poll is communicating with the PLC, many MODBUS and TCP packets are sent and received. However, when solely using LabVIEW or the NI DSM to communicate with the PLC, there does not appear to be any communication over the network card.
Something that may be worth noting is that I was able to communicate with the PLC and read values from it with the DSM on just one occasion, when I first figured out which addresses I should be reading from. It all stopped working shortly thereafter. Prior to this, "CommFail" was not usually set to "true" with my current configuration. Thinking that it was my firewall, I have since turned my firewall off, but this seems to have had no effect on the problem either.
Any help on this matter would be appreciated.
Solved!

Just a thought but I think the register addresses used by LabVIEW are one off of the actual register #. I was using a CRIO as a modbus IO Server and had to shift the register addresses by 1 to get things to work correctly (can;t recall if it was +1 or -1). This is documented somewhere on ni.com but can;t seem to find it now. But here is another link that may help:

DSO9404A Automation using Labview

Dear sir,
I would like to know whether it is possible to access digital output (4 channels) of above DSO9404A oscilloscope through Ethernet using LabVIEW. I tried with DSO9404A IVI drivers and example VIs are available in LabVIEW to control the scope, but it is throwing errors. Kindly let me know the procedure to automate the oscilloscope.
Thanks & Regards,
S Nagaraju,
+91 9989554142

Yes, Oscilloscope is detected in NI MAX. I configured scope via LAN directly to my PC. It is throwing the below mentioned error while running the example Acq Wfm Edge Trigged.VI. Kindly let me know the another procedure instead of IVI drivers to control the scope. Means if signals are present at 4 channels i have to do some manual adjustments like auto scale, trigger source, changing of time scale and voltage levels, etc. Thease things should be automated every time when the signals are presented at 4 channels.

Apple TV, Home Sharing via ETHERNET ?

Hello!
This question has been asked many times before but in many different ways and none of them straight to the point which is what I'm going to do:
Can I have my computer connected to Internet via ETHERNET, connect the Apple TV to Internet via ETHERNET using the same router, and then have Home Sharing working? that is to say, watching movies on my HD TV via Apple TV from my computer.
Why?! Because currently I'm using Wi-Fi for all my gadgets, and although the signal strength is excellent for my computer, I cannot get more than half for the Apple TV despite being located no more than 3 meters away from the Airport Express base. It's really annoying having to stop the movie every couple of minutes to wait for the buffering.
I hope someone can advice me... please no extra "signal booster" hardware, just want to keep the things to a minimum...if possible.
Thanks in advance

Cannot connect to iMac (OS9) via ethernet while connected to internet

I readily connect my eMac (OS X) to my iMac (OS 9) via ethernet using TCP/IP except when my internal modem is connected to the internet. In Network Port Configurations, I have ethernet at the top of the list, followed by fire wire and then the modem. It appears to search the internet.
Any suggestions?

On the iMac, the AppleTalk Control Panel (CP) is set to connect via ethernet. The TCP/IP CP is set to connect via Ethernet, Configure manually with an IP and Router address of 192.168.168.1 and a Subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 The IP address shows up in the File Sharing CP which is set to use TCP/IP.
On the eMac, PPPoE is disabled and Appletalk is active. Connecting from eMac to iMac works fine when the eMac's internal modem is idle but not when it is connected to the internet.
When I try to connect from iMac to eMac while eMac is connected to internet, I see the eMac in the Chooser and can attempt to connect as either registered user or guest but then immediately get "The connection to this server has been unexpectedly broken". If the eMac is not connected to the internet, I can connect as a guest and see items in my Public folder.
I tried creating a new Location and immediately lost my internet connection.
The IP address of the iMac never changes. I do enter the IP address of the eMac's ethernet into the chooser dialogue on the iMac when attempting to connect from iMac.

AirPort Express Dropping Connection to AirTunes via Ethernet Connection

I connect to my AirPort Express via ethernet using iTunes and AirTunes. I am using Windows Vista. The device works great for roughly 15 or so minutes, and then seems to loose its connection with iTunes. iTunes continues to play the music, but there is no sound coming out of the audio device connected to the AEx. If I toggle the Computer Speaker/AirPort Express output selection in iTunes it reconnects successfully with my AEx and will work as expected for a period of time, and then will eventually drop the connection (or at least the audio stops) again. I've used my AEx successfully for a couple years now - something over the last few months changed as this behavior is new. I am using the latest firmware and the latest version of iTunes.
Anybody have any ideas? Are there known software/firmware compatibility issues?

Labview will not recognize Sony camera connected via ethernet.

I have a Sony camera, model XCG-SX97E, and have been trying to interface it using Labview. I was told that the easiest way to do so is using the NI Vision packadge. However it became quickly appearent that Labview will not recognize the camera at all. It is connected via ethernet directly to my computer. I have tried using NI MAX and Instument I/O assitant, neither of which displayed ethernet or the device as an option. I have never tried to interface a third party device before and am at a loss at how to proceed. If it helps to know, my computer has only one ethernet port, which is taken up by the camera when connected, and it has an Intel 82479LM Gigabit ethernet network connection.

After talking to tech support, I have dont the following:
1) Uninstalled Sony drivers
- This allowed the camera to show up in MAX
2) Created a homemade cross over cable because I do not own one
3) Disabled my firewall
Now, when I try to acquire an image in MAX, I get the error 0xBFF69031: "The system did not recieve test packet from the camera."
I have tried all the suggestions listed on http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/4D0ECFAA9AD9FF3E8625792600551A1E and have had no luck.
I am now going to try the solutions found in this thread: http://forums.ni.com/t5/Machine-Vision/0xBFF69001-0xBFFF800B-errors-with-GigE-JAI-CV-A10GE/td-p/1742...

Labview to Siemens PLC via Ethernet/TCP

Hi,
I have created a simple app that uses the Labview TCP functions (as the example Simple Server/Client VI's) to write to a Siemens S400 PLC via Ethernet.
While I can see that the data arrives in the PLC, the values I send (Int 1-99) are different to what I send, and for each value sent 3 values are received.
Is there a document/link that can help me?

You have to refer to the Simens protocol documentation. They should document the exact binary data format you need to send. Quite likely the protocol you are looking for is really binary in nature, that means you can't write a number as a string but need to directly send the binary data format. Also Siemens likes to use somewhat strange number formats such as BCD or even more involved binary encoding. Your documentation should tell you what it exactly expects.
As far as LabVIEW is concerned you have two things to watch out:
- Doing binary data is best done by building a UINT8 array of data instead of using strings. Use the Byte Array To String fucntion just beofre wiring the data array to the TCP/IP functions that require a string input. Logically a string and a byte array are the same. I's just about how LabVIEW shows them to you that is really different.
- If you format data into the byte array that is bigger than one byte (words, integers, etc) you have to be aware of Endianess of the data. I order to support platform indpendant operation LabVIEW always defaults to Big Endian format meaning the highest significant byte is first. Intel CPUs and most systems Siemens has, use Little Endian which has the lowest significant byte first. Before LabVIEW 8 you had to use the Swap Bytes and Swap Words functions explicitedly to change the number format. From LabVIEW 8 onwards the Flatten and Unflatten functions allow you to select the Endianess of the data.
