Labview for laptop with dock station.

I use labview on desk top computer and it works fine. But, after I use it on a laptop with dock station, it does not work. I use the exact setting and configuration and I have no idea why does not work? Any suggestion. Thanks.

There isn't any kind of information you've provided for anyone to be able to help you.
"It does not work" could mean millions of things.  How is it not working?
What "exact setting and configuration" are you talking about?
Does it work when the laptop is not on the docking station?

  • ESata for T420s with docking station

    I notice the Mini Dock Plus Series 3 - 90W 433810U (as apposed to Mini Dock Series 3 - 90W 433710U) has a eSata port. Will this work with a T420s (which doesn't)?
    I'm planning to buy a docking station and use it to connect my 30" 2560x1600 display using a (active) dual-link DVI adaptor but I would also like to use a eSata disk attached. This will decide if I shell out the extra $$$ for the Plus dock or the regular one.
    thanks

    According to http://support.lenovo.com/en_LK/product-and-parts/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-72873, the dock is compatible with the T420s.
    If it's like my 135W and 170W docks, you set the dock for the number 2 position which is less than ideal but works.  eSATA off the dock should work fine.

  • Is it possible to get iPhone audio (telephone calls) from Lightning connection? Music works, but calls switch to internal or extenral speakers, not lightning (for e.g. docking station, car...)!

    Is it possible to get iPhone audio (telephone calls) from Lightning connection? Music works, but calls switch to internal or extenral speakers, not lightning (for e.g. docking station, car...)!
    I want to get the audio out of the lightning connection (the way you get audio when you connect it to a dock). It works properly with music, but when making a telephone call, it switches to the internal speraker. You can change to the external spekers, but you cannot select another audio out. It's also possible to get the telephone audio from the analogue connection, but that's not what I want. I want telephone audio from lightning...
    Would be so great if anybody has an idea

    I must also say that the second update ruined my Lumia's battery life.
    With the first (out-of-the-box) update the phone usually had 30 percent of battery after a quite hard day (e.g. more than an hour of talking via bluetooth handsfree, more than two hours of listening to the music via bluetooth, more than an hour of browsing via wifi, and reading hundreds of e-mails via two mail accounts). I never managed to discharge it after one day (e.g. 14-16 hours) of continous use, no matter how much I talked, listened and browsed.
    Now, with the secod update, it discharges to 20% after 12 hours of laying still almost without use (30 mins of music, less than 15 mins of talking and nothing more), and discharges completely with the usage pattern described above.
    Did the second update contain some Android code?

  • IPod will not work with docking stations

    My 5th gen iPod works fine except it will not work with docking stations. I can sync it with my computer and it plays fine, just won't work with docking stations and other accessories like the Belkin FM radio converter. I bought a iMode boom box and it does not work properly with my iPod.
    Any ideas??

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How can I configure labview for communication with Modbus I/O?

    i read a article about configureing Labview for communication with modbus I/O in NI developer zone, but it was written for Labview 6, how can I configure it with labview 7. it seems there are some difference. Thanks!

    In both LabVIEW 6 and 7, you connect to modbus using Lookout Protocol Drivers (LPD) and then communicate to LPD using the tag engine of LabVIEW DSC or through DataSocket.

  • Is there software for HP xb4 Docking Station, to make it work properly??

    I've searched but not found any software for my xb4 Docking Station;     several things not working on it, including the media bay that's supposed to accept a Personal Media Drive in its slot, but isn't recognizing it.
    thanks for any help.
    Rick

    You do not want to use a standard 30 pin to lightning adaptor.
    It would put all the weight on the lightning pin and most likely snap.
    You can use one that has a cable, it would connect but have the device lay flat near the dock.

  • Problem with laptop and docking station

    Hello.
    We have two laptops with two docking station. Both laptops w/ docking have the same problem:
    When the computer is turned off, and its still connected to the docking station, the fan in the computer start to run really fast. The fan goes on for a good while. This is making alot of noise, which can be annoying for the person using the office. When the computer is on, the fan runs at normal speed. If you disconnect the computer from the docking station, the fan stops immediately. Any ideas?
    1. Product Name and Number
    HP ProBook 6460b
    Docking Station VB043AA
    2. Operating System installed
    Windows XP 32-bit
    3. Error message
    No error message.
    4. Any changes made to your system before the issue occurred
    No recent changes.
    Thanks in advance.

    This question was solved.

    It is possible the notebook is not completing the shutdown in full when docked.
    Make sure the BIOS is the most recent version.
    Here is the most recent one to try should you need it.
    Other than that, I am afraid I do not have much else for this. I did some research, but I didn't really find anything that was exactly like this. I found scenarios where the fan would run at full speed when docked, but this happened whether the notebook was booted or not. You can try your luck in the business support forums to see if they may have something that is a little more helpful.

  • Laptops in docking station with lid closed go to sleep during in-place migration from XP to Windows 7

    We have an issue where existing XP laptops are targeted with SCCM 2012 OSD TS for upgrade to Windows 7.  The laptops are in a docking station, with the lid closed.  The laptops are going to sleep when the OSD is booted in WinPE, just before the
    Setup Windows and Configmgr step.  I have copied powercfg.exe from a Windows 8.1 machine (both AMD64 and x86 versions) to the MDT Tool package...." and then a step to run:
    %DeployRoot%\Scripts\%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%\PowerCfg.exe -setacvalueindex 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e 4f971e89-eebd-4455-a8de-9e59040e7347 5ca83367-6e45-459f-a27b-476b1d01c936 0
    However, the laptops are still sleeping during the Setup Windows and Configmgr step.   Any insight to correcting this will be extremely helpful.

    Hi
    We came across this issue, seems odd that SCCM doesn't suspend the power management in the OS during the TS - (But then again it also seems odd that Windows 7 will go to sleep if you close the lid of a laptop half way through a shutdown, so that when you
    lift the lid it wakes only to complete the shutdown, did MS not spot that, or choose to ignore it!?).
    These commands should be run soon after the Setup Windows and ConfigMgr step and will disable the device and screen from sleep/hibernating:
    Prevent sleep during OSD (Battery power)
    cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -standby-timeout-dc 0
    Prevent sleep during OSD (AC power)
    cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -standby-timeout-ac 0
    Prevent monitor off during OSD (Battery power)
    cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -monitor-timeout-dc 0
    Prevent monitor off during OSD (AC power)
    cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -monitor-timeout-ac 0
    Prevent hibernate during OSD (Battery power)
    cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -hibernate-timeout-dc 0
    Prevent hibernate during OSD (AC power)
    cmd.exe /c powercfg -x -hibernate-timeout-ac 0
    At the end of the TS, you can revert these changes by running the following command to reset the power scheme:
    powercfg -restoredefaultschemes
    Hope this helps
    Thank you.  However, we did put similar steps in our Task Sequence right after the "Setup Windows and..." step, but the issue we are having is that the "Sleep" occurs during the "Setup Windows and...." so it never reaches
    anything after that step until the lid is opened.

  • X201 with Docking station not able to connect to Samsung Monitor

    When the Samsung (SyncMaster 2053BW) VGA connect directly to X201, the monitor works fine.  When the Samsung VGA connect thru docking, Monitor is blank.  Why?

    hey alin0902,
    hard to say why. have you tested the Samsung with another laptop that has a docking station ? does it work? or does it work only if the Samsung is connected directly into the other laptop ?
    if it does not work with a different laptop that is docked, we suggest contacting Samsung for assistance.
    if it does work, while being docked.. what you could do is to uninstall the current video driver of your X201. let windows install its own generic driver.
    once done, dock the unit and try again.

  • T42 non-communication with docking station type 74P6733

    When I fit my T42 laptop on to the docking station, the symbol at lower right of screen shows the battery symbol.  Presumably something is wrong with the connection between the two.  How can I find out if it's the laptop or the docking station, and is their a solution?  Please help.

    I wonder if anyone reading this lives in Somerset UK, so that I could try this out!  It's so irritating - I'm sure it's just the link between the two units.  When I was first given it, the link would break periodically until I discovered that setting the docking station on a thin paperback book did the trick.  I guess something has just bent, or similar.
    I was able to link my Passap knitting machine to DesignaKnit software on the laptop through the docking station for downloading stitch patterns and interactive knitting to the machine.  However, the laptop doesn't have a matching connection, so my husband bought a cable with USB connection.  The designers of the knitting software say this should work, but the screen is saying that the cable isn't plugged into COM1.  Anyone able to help with this please?

  • Still annoying stuck at 0.8Ghz with docking station

    if I put my W520 in sleep modus, put in my docking station and start it, it's still stuck at 0,8Ghz! Even throttlestop wont work here!!
    taking it off and on the docking station while running makes no difference. oh wrong, there is a difference: as long it is OFF the docking station on battery only, I can get full speed with turbo boost through throttle stop, but beware if I put it on the docking station again ....
    only thing I can do is restart the laptop, then I get the message: the wattage of the power adapter is too low compared to the one the system was shipeed with (I HAVE the original 170W power adapter on my docking station!!), and then it starts with TB working fine.
    will these issues ever have an end, lenovo?
    Solved!

    Thanks for information. The new BIOS totally skipped my attention.
    I had power manager unsinstalles and the 1.26 Bios. with the new 1.30, the problem seems to be solved, at least this time.
    Great!

  • Access Connections - disable WiFi on Wired Connect with docking station

    Issue: Need to auto switch without user interaction from Wired to WiFi and back to Wired.
    Example - User leaves desk/docking station with wired LAN to a meeting on WiFi then returns to their desk/dock. Laptop may hit sleep mode on these steps as well.
    I'm moving from Dell to Lenovo and new to AC - so far no luck disabling WiFi on Wired connect. It's a breeze with Intel PROset + "adapter switching" and can be done manually with Dell Wifi drivers ("disable on Wired Connect"). I assumed Thinkvantage Access Conentions would actually be more robust than these. Should we just use PROset even though it doesn;t ship with the systems nor is a download for Lenovo T-Series? PROset method - http://www.intel.com/support/wireless/wlan/sb/CS-028815.htm
    Working to achieve this as a managed policy for many computers. AC looks great but wish it had this setting like Intel PROset!!!

    Hi Tpad-rex, welcome to the forums,
    Please take a look at the profile settings in access connections. (Select the profile and choose edit profile). In the profile you should have two adapters showing; LAN and WLAN, make sure that the LAN is above the WLAN in the priority list. I'm guessing you have it the other way around, did you maybe set it up as a WLAN connection first??

  • HP laptops with dock

    Do you know which HP laptops are available with a docking station (i.e. once set, they can be displayed on a separate monitor and are plugged into a new keyboard + mouse)? Thank you!

  • W520 only charges with docking station wall plug does not work

    I have experienced this problem twice and am very confused about why it is occuring. 
    I usually use my W520 laptop on a docking station and when I am at home or travelling I keep it powered by with a wall adapter.  So at work it stays charged and operating from the docking station (i.e. ports on the bottom of the laptop).  When I am at home it stays charged by pulling it in using the Lenovo (170W power adapter).
    Last year I was in China working and all of a sudden my laptop would no longer charge and would shutdown when the battery died) with the wall adapter.  I ended up buying a docking station and managed to keep it charged and operating that way.  Obtaining any type of warranty service in China was a major pain but the problem was diagnosed to be an issue with my motherboard.  I returned to Canada and had my computer replaced (computer was about 3 months old).
    Now I am back in Canada and have the same problem with my new replacement laptop.  I am puzzled why this keeps happening.  Has this occured with anyone else?  Is the plug on the W520 not very good quality?  Any thoughts or suggestions will be super appreciated. 

    Thanks for the reply. Actually everyone always thinks it is a problem with the power adapter cable but the cable I am using is the same one for my dock. I only had one cable for my dock and when I am travelling unpug it and use it when I am on the road.
    Last time in China they took apart my computer and confirmed (I was watching them as they used the voltmeter) that power and proper voltgage was coming into my computer from the plug and all the way to the board (ie checking every interface along the way). Yet it was not charging the battery or providing power to run the computer. The only way to solv the problem was to use a dock. Only thing I could think of is that maybe something on the bottomdock connector is messed up and hence the computer believes it is connected to the dock and hence not wanting to provide power via the power adapter at the same time to avoid shorting out the board. Any thoughts?
