Labview Chromatograhpy and Willstein software

I am a student who is new to labview. My college purchased a program
called Chromatography toolkit from Willstein software several years
ago. I am told that it worked great with our computer and G.C. but
now that we have moved to a new building and have not used the
software for several years, nothing seems to work. After installing a
new version of the program I receive an error message saying "The MIO
system requires and integer input." I have been unsuccessful in
finding the cause of the problem, all the settings seem right. Does
anyone know how to contact Willstein Software? The email and phone
listed on their website do not seem to be current.
If anyone has experience with this software any help would be greatly
a
ppreciated. Or if anyone has any experience with other
chromatography software preferably for Labview any comments would be
great.

Labview runs CANBus and DNP3 software model at the same time

I have an ordinary computer which communicates with several DSPs (CANBus communiation) through Compact Rio. The physical connection is that the DSPs' CANBuses are connected together and connected into Compact Rio, then the Compact Rio is connected with a router through Ethernet, at the same time, the computer also connects with the Router through Ethernet. Based on this physical architecture, the computer can run CANBus software model on Labview to communiate with Compact Rio and DSPs.
As I know, the communication between the computer and the Compact Rio is not real time, and the communication between Compact Rio and DSPs can be real time, can you tell me if I get the right point?
Now we have another device named RTDS (communicate with outside through Enternet based on DNP3), and want to add RTDS into our system. I am not sure about the way to conduct the communiation. The main question is that we need to run Labview to communicate with DSPs through CANBus and RTDS through DNP3 at the same time, is that possible?
I proposed two possible ways to conduct communication, bt not sure if it is possible.
1. I proposed that I connect RTDS with the Router through Ethernet, and then the computer communicates with RTDS through the Router based on DNP3 and also keeps the communication with DSPs through Router, Compact Rio, CANBus and then DSPs. I am wondering if this kind of communication is available for Labview.
2. The second possible way I proposed is that I connect the RTDS with Compat Rio (CRio keeps connecting with DSPs through CANBus) through Ethernet, and then the computer communicates with DSPs through Router, Compact Rio and CANBus, and the computer communicates with RTDS through Router, Compact Rio and Ethernet. Also, the computer needs to run Labview with CANBus sofeware model and DNP3 software model at the same time. I am also not sure if it is possible.
The diagram of the communication system is shown in the attachments.

To use Mail from multiple devices, your Mail Server needs to be using IMAP protocol (iCloud Mail uses that).
IMAP keeps the Master copies on the Server, not on the Mac the way most default POP Mail servers do.
To keep one Master Calendar, accessible from all devices, you need a web-accessible place to keep the Master Calendar. iCloud can do that.
¿Do you see a trend developing here?

Labview FPGA called another software component

Hi
I am trying to compile my FPGA code which has previously compiled. I get this error.
"Labview FPGA called another software component, and that component returned the following error:
Error Code: -52009
NI Platform Services: The requested resource has been marked for deletion and is rejecting new requests."
What is this error code?

Hi,
I've been looking in to this for you today - unfortunately, that seems to be a really rare error code which doesn't come up very often on our systems, so there's no quick fix that I can find.
A couple of options:
1) Have you made any changes to the code recently, in terms of updating it from an earlier version of LabVIEW? If so, it may be worth mass compiling your project up to the latest version in case there are references to software components which no longer exist.
2) It's probably worth a try repairing your LabVIEW, FPGA and RIO drivers installations from disk, as described here: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/FE6B641E86E55AF2862576DE00038001?OpenDocument
This could be due to some kind of missing or corrupted component in, for example, the Xilinx Tools
3) Are you referencing any kind of external software, such as DLLs or third party instruments, in your file?
4) What hardware are you using?
Please let me know how you get on with these queries.
Best wishes,

LabVIEW 2011, and Excel 2010: saving problems

Hello to all! I am a student of Mechanical Engineeringfthat very little has been using this software. I present the problem: for a matter which is called Biomechanics, I and my colleagues, we have developed the design of a rheometer, which is controlled by LabVIEW2011. Since we are still at the experimental stage, always has been simulated using labview: the whole experience. So, labview, at present, not only controls the stepper motor through the frequency sets, but also simulates the output (in the specific, the response to the torsion of the cartilage, simulated with a low pass filter of the second order). All this was done by my colleague more experienced than me, who today passed me the finished project that in his pc works perfectly while not in mine (we have the same version of labview, but different version of office). In practice, the program is fine (there is no arrow "Run" broken) and the simulation with the creation of the sine graph (response of the cartilage) is done perfectly. My colleague then set labview in order to save the data to an excel sheet at the end of the simulation, asking the user where to put it (the excel file must already exist, labview does not create it). The excel file should contain two columns and a scatter plot (one column represents the frequency, f, of the stepper motor, the second represent the shear modulus G, which increases as the frequency increases and the graph represent the trend of G in function of f). As soon as I decide to save the data, excel opens, for an instant appear the scatter plot and data in columns but immediately after the graph disappears and remain only the columns with data (so I have to make the graph "manually") and labview gives me the following error:
Error -2147023170 occurred at Property Node (arg 2) in NI_ReportGenerationToolkit.lvlib:Excel_Insert_Char
t.vi->NI_Excel.lvclass:Excel Insert Graph.vi->NI_ReportGenerationToolkit.lvlib:Excel Easy Graph.vi->SaveExcelFile.vi->Progetto 2.0.vi
This error code is undefined. Undefined errors might occur for a number of reasons. For example, no one has provided a description for the code, or you might have wired a number that is not an error code to the error code input.
Additionally, undefined error codes might occur because the error relates to a third-party object, such as the operating system or ActiveX. For these third-party errors, you might be able to obtain a description of the error by searching the Web for the error code (-2147023170) or for its hexadecimal representation (0x800706BE).
What can I do?
Thanks. Regards
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The LabVIEW Report Generator in LabVIEW 2010 and more recent versions does, indeed, work very well with Excel in Office 2010. I helped someone about two weeks ago with a problem saving a series of measurements to a (new) Excel Workbook. Your problem differs in two ways -- you want to save in an existing Excel file (why? Aren't you worried about overwriting data, or are you trying to add a new WorkSheet, or append to the end of an existing WorkSheet?) and making a Chart. I've not tried charts, so don't have advice right now.
Judging by your error message, it is the Chart feature that is giving you trouble. Can you see how your code runs if you eliminate the Chart functions? [You can do that by putting a "Diagram Disable" Structure around the Chart code, clicking on the top of the structure and wiring the wires through in the Enable case].
Give that a try and let us know what happens.

Labview, ActiveX, and VarPtr

I currently have a 3rd party ActiveX product that I am using with Labview 11.0. One of the Methods requires me to pass the VARPTR of a TYPE (Labview Cluster) and the LEN of the TYPE. In Visual Basic, VARPTR and LEN produces a 32bit signed long integer word. How do I get the Labview-equivalent of VARPTR and LEN values of a Labview Cluster to pass to the routine.

You can get a pointer to a memory address in LabVIEW. The functions you'll need are DSNewPtr, MoveBlock, and DSDisposePtr. These functions are built into LabVIEW and you can call them using a call library function node configured with the library name set to "LabVIEW." They are documented in the LabVIEW help, and there are examples for how to use them on this forum. You can get the size of a cluster by flattening it to a string, then getting the string length. If your ActiveX component expects to do something useful with that cluster, you may need to reorganize the cluster or add extra padding elements because LabVIEW does not necessarily pack structure elements the same way other software does. Also be aware that LabVIEW data has the opposite endianness of most Windows software so you may need to do some byte-swapping.

Questions re: GPIB-ENET, LabView 5 and 7, license and Win XP

We have a full development version of LabView 5.0 on a Win 98 SE machine, and just acquired a GPIB-ENET box that came with Solaris drivers. I loaded the GPIB and VISA software on LabView 5.0 and tried to connect to test the setup to no avail. It appears that all of the drivers are present. I believe that my problem is that I can�t get the IPAssign network driver bound to the 3Com ethernet card. When I load it in network properties, it doesn�t offer any hardware to bind to it. If I run IPAssign anyway, it claims the only networking hardware available is dialup, and sits forever (probably waiting to connect to a dialup line).
The ultimate plan is to upgrade to LabView 7, and install it with the GPIB-EN
ET box on a Win XP system. I have a demo version of 6.1, so I loaded that on the XP machine and tried again. LabView 6.1 appears to be missing drivers for GPIB-ENET, and looking through the knowledge base tells me a driver bug leaves Win XP incapable of assigning an IP address to GPIB-ENET anyway.
My questions are:
1. Should it be possible to get LabView 5.0 with 98SE talking to the older GPIB-ENET box, at least to set the IP address? Is this failing because I need to download the license (p/n 778258-02)?
2. If I order LabView 7 and install it on Win XP, will I still need to download the license to run it, or is that included in version 7?
3. Once I get LabView 7 and the driver and the license (if necessary) will I be able to assign the IP address with this setup?
4. If the answer to #1 is �yes, with a license� and to #3 is �no�, then can I download the license, use it to assign an IP address on LabView 5 and transfer it to LabView 7/ Win XP when I get it to use the GPIB-EN
ET box?
Thanks.

Hello,
Which version of the GPIB drivers are you using? We recommend using NI-488.2 v2.0 for your GPIB-ENET device (for Windows XP and Windows 98).
1. Should it be possible to get LabView 5.0 with 98SE talking to the older GPIB-ENET box, at least to set the IP address? Is this failing because I need to download the license (p/n 778258-02)?
A: If you have version 2.0 of the drivers, you should be able to assign the IP okay. Do you see a pattern in the LEDs flashing? Check the READY LED and see if you see a pattern, as this indicates an error code. The following formula can be used to find the error code:
error code= (long flashes-1)(short flashes-1)example: 3 long flashes, and 9 short flashes = (3-1)(9-1) = 28
If the READY LED does not stop flashing, it indicates that the GPIB-ENET does not have a valid IP address assigned to it. According to this KB:
The problem is the Ethernet address. The field for the Ethernet address in the IPAssign Utility is meant for the last four digits of the Ethernet address on your GPIB-ENET (the first part of the address is the same for all GPIB-ENETs, so it is pre-filled for you). If you run the IPAssign Utility again and fill in the last four digits of your GPIB-ENET's Ethernet address (in the format: xx:xx), then you should be able to assign it an IP address successfully.
More details: The Receive LED flashes because the Ethernet header for the packet is correct and the GPIB-ENET recognizes that; However, the header was actually duplicated when you entered the Ethernet address in the IPAssign Utility, so it did not match the exact Ethernet address of that particular GPIB-ENET. The only numbers that need to be entered into the Ethernet address field in the IPAssign Utility are the last 4 numbers in the format: xx:xx.
Note: The user must decide what the IP address is going to be. Your IT department could probably help.The Ethernet Address however, is statically programmed into each ENET. It's usually labeled at the bottom of the unit.
Also, refer to this KB regarding some IP issues we've had with some of the older GPIB-ENET devices.
2. If I order LabView 7 and install it on Win XP, will I still need to download the license to run it, or is that included in version 7?
A: You should uninstall and reinstall NI-488.2 v2.0. If you already have this driver, you will not need to re-license it. The driver is not included with LabVIEW 7.0 by default.
3. Once I get LabView 7 and the driver and the license (if necessary) will I be able to assign the IP address with this setup?
A: You should be able to assign the IP fine. Look at the response for first question above to make sure you are assigning the IP correctly.

What Font is used as the default LabView System and Dialog Font on a windows?

What font is used as the default LabView System and Dialog font on a Windows system?
Can I use the default system and dialog font in another software (i.e; Win word or Illustrator etc.)

For Windows XP, the font is Tahoma. I don't know if Windows has a method for changing this (I thought it would be in the display settings, but couldn't find it). Maybe in the registry?
For more details, see here.
Try to take over the world!

Where can I find more information on Control and Simulation Software?

Where can I find out more information on Control and Simulation Software for G (GSIM)?
I am currently programming a PID controller using a Siemens PLC. I have installed LabVIEW DataLogging and Supervisory Control Module which allows LabVIEW to interface with my PLC.
Would appreciate if you could offer me some advice on whether it would be possible for the PLC PID controller to control a first order process model created using GSIM? Please email me at [email protected] if you could offer me any advice or assistance.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

I see that you posted to the DSC forum, but you did not get GSIM information. Below is the link for the user manual for the Control and Simulation Toolkit. It is the single best source for info on the toolkit.

I lost my labview CD and changed computer long time ago

I lost my labview CD and changed computer long time ago. I bought labview student edition 8.6 years ago and I lost both the CD and the computer. Now I want to use the software again but I cant find were to download it or how to activate it. I have in my e-mail the activation codes but they dont seem to work. what can I do? thanks for your time

Hello Darent,
The activation codes are specific to each computer, so if you changed your PC, you need to generate new activation codes or activate your software using the serial number.
You can register your serial number on the next page, so you can download versions of LabVIEW activated with that serial number.

Labview drivers and VI's for a Softing CANCard2?

I've got a Softing CANCard2. I want to start writing Labview tests for CAN. I need drivers and VI's which will allow me to read/write to CAN in Labview using my Softing CANCard2. Has anyone done this or know where I could get the drivers/vi's?
thanks

If Softing has not already done this I doubt you are going to find
anyone who has. It would take a lot of work to write a complete
LabVIEW driver from scratch by making Call Library Function Node calls
into your third-party CAN card's DLLs. It would be much simpler
and less costly to purchase a National Instruments CAN device for use
with LabVIEW.
