Labview front panel

dear sir,
sir i did a program for serial communication in labview to communicate with the embedded system and it is working now...
and my question???????
i need to display message from embedded system in one window of the front panel and i need to display parameter (baud rate, start bit, stop bit,etc...)in another front panel ... and this parameter front panel window should open only when i click button in the message front panel window when i require to change parameter..... can you explain how with some example

Hi steps,
Also you can try going through this link. Download the attachments(Main and sub vi) from the post and understand how to activate multiple front panels. You can do it by creating seperate vis with the required parameters and calling them as SubVIs. Also check how the values are passed between these vis through the connector pane terminals.

How do i display my labview front panel on a web-page and update it say eyery 5 seconds, I think i need Lookout?

My front panel display updates every 20secs. I want to be able to view the Labview front panel on a web-page which updates itself continuously. Will Lookout do this?

LabVIEW will do this with it's built in web server. Full control of a LabVIEW front panel is possilbe with version 6.1. Older versions have the ability to publish a panel with no control. What version do you have? Lookout is a completely different software package for HMI/SCADA applications and has no relationship to LabVIEW except that they're sold by the same company.

Hi,
I refer to insert it into excel since report is in excel format, but if it's too hard to do so I can save it in another format.
Either way, will labview support this? Anyway, thank you very much for your quick reply.

You are already using the Report Generation Toolkit? There is the "Append Control Image to Report.vi" that would make this easy.

How to move NI hypertrend control around on Labview front panel

Hi everyone,
Please I would like to know if the NI hypertrend control from the DSC pallette can be draged across the front panel and how to do it.
Once I put this control on the front panel, it just stays where I put it and would not allow me to move it around.
I will appreciate any suggestion on this.
Thanks.

Using LabVIEW 2010SP1 and TestStand 4.5

How do I programatically open a LabView Front panel?

I want to use a test stand variable (perhaps a sequence global) to control whether certain VIs open their front panels, and wait for subsequent operator interaction. Can I get there using the API and something like this: "Step_TSInfoProp.TSInfo_StepAdditions.LVStep_ModulePathProp" ?
I tried passing a boolean to the VI and then having it optionally open its own front panel using the VI Server, but I could not see it because it would always be behind the TestStand Window.

Sean, The reason for doing this is that the client wants a "debug level" control of some sort. If set below some value, the VIs just do their thing, take their measurements, report, or whatever and go on their way blindly as what we expect a good test sequence to do. However when this value is set above some level (the threshold may be different for various categories of tests) the VI becomes interactive. This would allow an operator to see a measured value, and possibly tinker with the instrument parameters or the UUT, before continuing on. This might be similar to a single step command, but not necessarily pausing at every step. Inside of the VI I can test the value of the variable (either passed in through the connector pane or via the sequence context) and thus decide whether to be interactive or silent. I can also use the VI server to open my front panel or not. But in doing so, even though I try to make the VI panel frontmost, it is hidden by Teststand. If the VI attribute is "dialog" then it does show up on top of everything else, but unfortunately does so even when I don't tell it to open at all.

How can i access remote front panel in RT with LabVIEW run time engine in client PC

Hi to all,
I have developed the RT application with cRIO 9075 integrated chassis. And i have access its remote front panel in client PC. Now i want to access the remote panel in the client PC without having LabVIEW runtime engine. If i connect the remote panel with that client, it shows only the vi border. i doesn't downloads the front panel.
How Can i access its remote front panel without LabVIEW runtime engine in the client PC?

You cannot view a remote front panel without the LabVIEW runtime - the LabVIEW runtime is what makes the remote front panel possible. What you will want to do instead is likely create a Web Service that you can access from a remote PC without requiring the LabVIEW runtime. However, this will require you to develop a web-based HTML or similar UI to interact with the VIs running on your system - NI hasn't yet created a way to export a LabVIEW front panel as an HTML'ish page.

What is the most efficient way to have full access to the front panel on RT Labview?

I have a RT machine that needs to do its job and also port the front panel to an external machine over the network. What is the most efficient way to do it? Using as little of the RT time as possible but providing full functionality to the RT front panel.
So far I have been using it directly from Labview - running the VI on a remote (RT) and have the front panel on local Labview (WINDOWS). I know I can do it with also through WWW (not very happy with that though).
LV2009 SP1.
Thanks

Running a compiled executable on the RT target, rather than running it within the development environment, is probably slightly more efficient but limits you to the web interface. If you're running within the LabVIEW environment, I doubt there's a noticeable difference in efficiency from the RT perspective between the web server and the LabVIEW front panel, although that's mostly a guess (I would expect the RT system to send identical data in each case, once the front panel is loaded). Those are your only options in modern LabVIEW versions. In LabVIEW 7.1 you could build an executable that acted as the front panel for an RT system, but that feature does not exist in recent versions. However, a quick search turned up this document with code to approximately duplicate that behavior, perhaps it will work for you?

The knobs, gages and dials, none of them seem to be designed for 360 degree continuous operation. Of course I can set the scale for 0 to 360, but I can not get rid of the gap between 0 and 360.
How do I set up a gage to display a Continuous 360 degrees without a gap between 0 and 360?
To change the gap, grab the high marker line and move it to the desired place (To change the origin, grab the low marker).
Also, don't forget to wrap the raw data into the 0..360 range if it falls outside. Here's a quick example (LabVIEW 8.0).

Japanese font on Front Panel not working

Hi,
I am new on using LV and finds out that whenever I type a Japanese character, it shows garbage text.
System:
Windows 7 Pro 32bit SP1
Labview 2013
Problem:
Whenever I key in Japanese character, the result is garbage, however when I tried to export the VI, and when I opened the txt file, the character is written correctly.
Seems like only in the front panel the characters are displaying incorrectly.
I've attached the Locale settings and also the garbage in the front panel for reference, as well as the printscreen of the export txt.
Any solution for this one?

Hi,
There are several ways to display foreign languages in LabVIEW front panel.
1. set “UseUnicode=True” in the LabVIEW.ini file.
2. use the app locale utility from Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13209). With this tool you can run LabVIEW (or builded app) under different locales without changing system locale in Control Panel.
3. By default UseUnicode in the LabVIEW.ini file is disabled. Remove it or make it False if you've added the UseUnicode.
Then go to control panel>> Region and Language >> Administrative tab. Then in language from non-Unicode programs, select the language you want to use. With UseUnicode False, Windows will see LabVIEW and a non-Unicode program and enable this feature.
Maybe you can refer to the links below.

Connecting extra monitor to DVI-I connection EVS 1464 (displaying Front Panel)

Hi,
Currently developing a Vision system using the following:
LabVIEW 2010 SP1
LabVIEW 2010 Real-Time SP1
Vision Development 2010 SP1
EVS 1464
My question is:
How can I display my front panel, running on the EVS, on a monitor connected to the DVI-I output of the EVS 1464?
Thanks ahead!
Roy

Go to Solution.

Hi Roy, I'm not sure if Hossein actually read that KB or not, but it deals with displaying the front panel over the network on a Windows machine, not out through the monitor connection on the EVS running LabVIEW RT.
To answer your original question, no, it is not possible to view the standard LabVIEW front panel on the RT system today. All the code for displaying all the front panel UI buttons, controls, and indicators is simply not present in LabVIEW Real-Time and is only viewable on a seperate machine that is either running the development environment or using a web browser that has the LabVIEW plugin installed.
Having a UI display on RT is certainly a requested feature and perhaps it might be available some day. You might want to check this request: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Real-Time-Idea-Exchange/Real-time-display/idi-p/1391108 . It has some good ideas for what other alternatives exist today as well.
However, this is one way to use the monitor output on the EVS and other LabVIEW RT systems. Vision Development Module includes RT Video Out VIs that can display any image on the connected monitor. You can either display images captured from cameras or custom images, as well as overlay text and simple graphic objects (lines, circles, rectangles, etc). It is certainly more effort than the normal front-panel editor in LabVIEW but it might be suitable for your needs if you want a few things to display. Of course you will have no mouse/keyboard so you cannot interact with any on-screen elements directly.

Displaying video on the front panel

Hello,
I want to be able to display a live stream video on my labView front panel.
I was wondering if there is a way to do this? Whenever I google it,
it just get videos about LabVIEW, otherwise I would try and I figure this
out myself,
It doesn't have to be anything fancy, I just want the video displayed like you
can display a picture.

Front panel remains after terminating lavbiew application

I have created an application from a LabView VI. I'm launching the application from LabWindows. I'm monitoring for the application to terminate. However, when I terminate the LabVeiw application, the LabView front panel is displayed and the LabWindows application terminated function doesn't see it as terminated until I close the front panel. Why is the VI front panel being displayed when the application is terminated. I have the program to run in dialog center screen. Once the application terminates, the dialog disappears and the LV front panel appears.

I like to put the Close invoke node inside of a Conditional Disable Structure. This way the front panel only closes when you are running an EXE and not when you are playing with the code.

Remote front panel connection

I want to view a labview front panel from a remote PC. But I only have one computer at the moment. So I am trying to simulate this at local computer by setting the server address as localhost. But the connection is refused and it says: connection to a local labview application is not allowed.
Is that a part of labview feature or caused by improper setting in labview?
What should I do at this point?
Thanks for your reply.

It is a LabVIEW feature. Remote front panels are meant to be used on two separate machines. If you want to set something similar from one computer only, you can try the web publishing tool that embeds the VI in a htm page that can be viewed by using any web browser either on the same/ remote machine.
