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.

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.

  • LabVIEW drivers for LeCroy Voyager M3 USB analyzer?

    Has anyone written or is anyone aware of 3rd party LV drivers for the Lecroy Voyager M3 USB analyzer? The API provided by LeCroy has limited capabilities.
    Thank you,
    SM

    Hi -
    Alan from LeCroy oscilloscope tech support here...
    One of my coworkers in protocol analyzer tech support asked me to post the following note...   The LeCroy Voyager has an Application Program Interface (API) for creating scripts or commands from which a LabVIEW driver can be developed. This API can be controlled remotely using the DCOM protocol. For assistance with the API one can contact the LeCroy Protocol Support Group at [email protected]

  • Are there LabVIEW drivers for the MCC USB-501 temperatur​e 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 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

  • Does latest version of bootcamp installed on late 2013 rMBP put thunderbolt drivers for lacie external thunderbolt/USB 3.0 drive?

    does latest version of bootcamp installed on late 2013 rMBP put thunderbolt drivers for lacie external thunderbolt/USB 3.0 drive?
    I am wiping my current windows bootcamp partition and reinstalling windows using disk utility /bootcamp wizard to clean up and reinstall.
    just curious if the Thunderbolt drivers get installed from bootcamp/windows sofytware update as I can't remember iif i had to do it manually before. I do see it shows up on windows side in device manager and if it is pluggged in during boot screen (to windows 7 pro 64 bit) shows ASMedia drivers being loaded for it.
    Thanks

    thank you so much I was pretty sure it did but wanted to be 100% sure as purpose of clean install was to clean up some mishaps I did with office 2007 (custom install), etc.
    Many Thanks

  • 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.

  • Looking for LabVIEW drivers for Aritsu MS462XX VNA?

    I'm looking for LabVIEW drivers for the Anritsu model MS4623D Vector Network Analyzer?  Have gone to Aritsu's site and downloaded their tools but no LabVIEW source found.   The other thing is whether anyone's developed LabVIEW interfaces to theirTools (Navigator or Power Tools or SCE)???

    Hi,
    Unfortunately, we do not have an instrument specific driver for this Anritsu model MS4623D. Here is a link to the drivers we do have for Anritsu. We may be able to get communication to your device threw another means. How does your device communicate? For example is it GPIB or Serial. We may be able to use an NI driver and a programming manual for your device and communicate with it in LabVIEW threw this.

  • LabVIEW Drivers for Instruments on DIN-Messbus

    I'm trying to interface to a group of instruments supplied by Rabe Messtechnik in Germany. They are networked through the DIN-Messbus protocol. Are there any labVIEW drivers for the following instuments or the protocol itself?:
    PPM-60, PIT-1500, PDM-02, PWS-02, CIO-26, PNC-02, PSW-02.

    Unfortunately I was unable to find a driver for this instrument. Instrument drivers can be found on our website
    www.ni.com/idnet
    by searching for a specific instrument name.
    If you cannot find the driver by doing this, then you have couple of options. First, I would like you to submit a request for this driver at:
    http://www.ni.com/devzone/idnet/other.htm
    We develop drivers based on demand and popularity so the more requests we have for it, the greater the possibility that we will develop one.
    If you would like to try developing your own instrument driver (or modify the existing one), we have documentation, model instrument drivers, and driver templates to help at :
    http://www.ni.com/devzone/idnet/development.htm
    We also have a syndicat
    e of third party vendors that specialize in National Instruments' products and services. Some of the vendors specialize in driver development. I would suggest contacting one of the Alliance members at:

    I hope this helps.

  • Does anyone out there have LabVIEW drivers for either a Z-Mike 1102 (Beta Lasermike) or a Compumotor 6104 (Parker)?

    Does anyone out there have LabVIEW drivers for either a Z-Mike 1102 (Beta Lasermike) or a Compumotor 6104 (Parker)?

    CompuMotor creates a Motion Toolbox for LabVIEW, but it is not supported by National Instruments.
    You can find some support files and downloads for the 6104 from http://www.compumotor.com/support_samples.htm

  • LabVIEW drivers for Agilent Noise Source 346B and Signal Generator E8257C-520

    Could anyone please tell me where to find LabVIEW drivers for Agilent Noise Source 346B and Agilent Signal Generator E8257C-520. I did not find them on NI's web site. Thank you!

    To my knowledge, the Agilent 346B Noise Source is not a programmatically controllable instrument and therefore we can't create an instrument driver. I suppose it is possible to be controlled through an instrument (like the PSG) but I don't see any documentation on this.
    As for the E8257C, we are insterested in providing a LabVIEW driver for this instrument series. Let me know if you are interested in assisting our development effort by loaning us the instrument.

  • Labview drivers for Prisma QMS

    Hi,
    I'm looking for labview drivers for the Prisma Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer
    from Pfeiffer Vacuum. If possible also a simple rest gas analysis (RGA) VI.
    Can anyone help?
    Hans Rosink

    There is no driver available as the qmg220 uses OPC communication you can use labviews build in OPC functions.
    But the problem is that the "normal" labview OPC functions using datasoket are a little bit limited and when you need to adress many OPC items it may crash.
    Therefore NI is producing the LABVIEW DSC module which is avialable for extra money and with the main problem that you are not able to build stand alone applications without any extra licencing costs. Which makes problems if you want to sell your software or add it to the instrument you sell.
    On the other side the DSC module is a little bit to powerfule for the communication with the QMG220.
    Because of these arguments we decideed to use a OPC developement toolkit from Softing . 
    We started with the .NET developement but there4 was a reasonable memeory leak in Labview when using .NET event callbacks.
    This has been solved with Labview 2009f2 and up versions.
    Up to now we have made our communication with the Softing ActiveX control within labview.
    Now we are on the  point to switch bak to .NET. 
    When try the OPC connectivity from any third party opc API vendor and you are using a remote OPC from labview please tonst forget to add the line.
    ole.AuthnLevel = 1 to your labview.ini file. 
    Hope this gives you a first overview.
    We are not planning to build a easy to use driver for the QMG220 but we build a lot of vi's to control some functions and collect the data.
    Best regards

  • 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.

  • LabVIEW drivers for Newport 2010A tunable diode laser?

    My group aquired a Newport 2010A tunable diode laser and failed to receive the labview drivers for remote control operation.  Does anyone have this software?

       Here is a link to a clean photocopy of the EOSI 2010 laser manual:
    https://wiki.brown.edu/confluence/download/attachments/29406/Diode+Laser+Manual.pdf?version=1
       You can also Google it using "EOSI 2010 laser" and find the maual in the link that says: "EOSI tunable laser diode systems and accessories are guaranteed
    for a period .... the 2010 laser diode. The first

  • Labview drivers for keithley DAS 1600

    hai all,
    I am searching quite for a long time for the Labview drivers for my Keithly Metrabyte DAS 1600 data aquisition card. Could any body provide me some weblink or some source from where I can download the drivers.
    thanks in advance.
    email:[email protected]

    Dear Nanda
    Thank you for choosing National Instruments!
    National Instruments provides drivers for NI products only. If you need drivers for other third party hardware, you will need to contact the hardware manufacturer for the drivers and VIs to interface with LabVIEW. You can go to the download center for Keithley from this link and typing in DAS 1600 in the search page. This will bring up a section with downloads - wherein you can find driver updates. If you do not find information here, then you may need to call in tech support for Keithley to get the drivers.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks and Regards

  • Labview Drivers for an Integral Tech Framegrabber

    My company is interested in purchasing a video inspection system that
    uses the following frame grabber:
    http://www.integraltech.com/art/downloaded%20from%20current%20site/fbmv/documents/fbmvlitespecsheet.pdf
    Integral Tech does not make Labview drivers for this card.
    Would there be a way to get these written, or would that be cost
    prohibitive ?
    Thanks for any suggestions.
    Rick B.
    Email: Use Yahoo instead.

    Hi Rick,
    I'm not really sure whether this is what you're thinking of but...
    Since INTEGRALTECH provides a VFW driver for their frame grabber you could,
    e.g., use this tool from aNI server:
    http://exchange.ni.com/servlet/com.quiq.servlet.GetObject/lv_vfw.zip?KEY=101
    ..97.12134.14&SIG=101.97.12134.14&EXT=mime:application/x-zip-compressed
    It works very well but, like any VfW based application, has the disadvantage
    of being able to read out only one camera at time. If you plan to use
    multiple frame grabbers simultaneously you have to find a different
    solution.
    It should also be possible to call the DLLs INTEGRALTECH provides from
    LabView.
    Best regards
    Arno
