Labview interface arduino

Hi, I am using Arduino with LabVIEW to automate an extruder machine for my masters project. Can you please tell me how to obtain wire diagram for the Arduino circuit after completing the graphical circuit in LabVIEW? Can I get some more examples on LabVIEW interface Arduino related to motion control and automation?
Thanks & regards,
Akshay Wankhede

Hello Askhu,
LabVIEW plus Arduino sounds like a fun combination!
SparkFun even sells a kit for it, which is handy because they also provide a good starting point for a support community:
https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10812
And we sell an interface toolkit that may be helpful:
http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/212478
And our own community page appears to start here:
https://decibel.ni.com/content/groups/labview-interface-for-arduino
I don't know much about any of this, but these seem like good places to start looking for more information!
Good luck,
Edwin!

  • Adaptation of LIFA (LabVIEW Interface For Arduino) to other Arduino compatible boards

    Hello evryone,
     I am trying to use a ''Sakura board", which is an Arduino compatible board, having similar programming as Arduino. This board is manufactured by Renesas; more specifications on it can be found on the following link: http://sakuraboard.net/gr-sakura_en.html
    What I would like to know, is if the firmware used for LIFA to interface Arduino with labview, or the ChipKit firmaware, can be used to this kind of Arduino compatible boards.
    My aim, is to use the Sakura Board for acquiring signals from various pins(Be it digital or analog), and setting other pins (Digital) parralelly, using labVIEW, as this is done using LIFA, or LabVIEW interface for ChiKit!!
    Thanks in advance for your support.

    I haven't had any experience with the Sakura board, so can only go on the information on the website.
    I've used the Arduino LabVIEW interface previously, and it basically uses serial communications between the PC and the Arduino. This serial interface is provided by the on-board USB-serial converter (an ATMega8u2 running custom firmware).
    From what I can tell about the Sakura, it appears as a storage device when plugging into a PC, and doesn't seem to have a USB to serial converter. If this is the case, then the LIFA toolkit won't work. That said, my understanding of the Sakura board may be incorrect (for example I'm unsure what operation modes the slide switch changes between). If you can confirm it has a USB-serial port then LIFA may work. I guess the key thing is that the serial port is required.
    You may be able to use a software serial port (http://arduino.cc/en/Reference/SoftwareSerial) on the Sakura to communicate with a PC, though that would require a PC with a serial port, or an external USB-serial converter. This approach would also require you to modify the LIFA arduino code (located in vi.lib\LabVIEW Interface for Arduino\Firmware\LIFA_Base) to reference the software serial port. It's probably a long shot that this will work, as the software serial library has been written for AVR chips, making use of their specific internal timers.

  • LabVIEW Interface for Arduino Toolkitについて

    はじめまして。
    LabVIEW2013にNI LabVIEW Interface for Arduino Toolkit を導入したいと考えております。
    NIホームページからNI無料アドオンに進み、Arduino用NI LabVIEWインタフェースツールキットの画面からダウンロードを試みたのですが、
    Step　One：　VI Packege Manager　のインストール後、このソフトを立ち上げたところLabVIEW Tools Network及びVI Packege Network に接続できないと表示されます。
    どなたか、この現象の改善方法について御教授頂けないでしょうか?
    宜しくお願い致します

    返信ありがとうございます。以下に実際に表示された画面を貼りますので宜しくお願いいたします。
    まず、VI Packege Manager を起動すると、左の画面が表示されます。
    エラーが発生しているようですが、ひとまずOKを押すと次の画像が表示されます。
    この画面ではライブラリにパッケージが存在していないと表示されており、
    表記通りにToolsからCheck the VI Packege Network for Available Packages を開きました。
    開いた結果、表示されたのが次の画像です。
    この画面では、どうも問題がないような内容が表記されているように思えますが、
    OKを押すと、また最初の画面に戻ってしまいます。
    　LabVIEW　Tools Network　を起動したところ、左のような画面が表示され、
    ネットワークに接続されていないことが分かります。
    よって接続を試みるためにHelpからActivationを選択し、ひとまず30 day Trialに登録しようとしたところ、下の画面が表示されました。
    　この画面ではサーバーに繋がらないという内容であったので、表記通り黒の太文字の部分をネットで調べたところ、どうもVIPM Professionaｌ　を購入しなくてはいけないようです。
    私の考えでは、LabVIEW　Tools Network　に接続あるいはアクティブ化がされていないのが原因だと考えておりますが、その改善方法が分かりません。
    そもそもVI Packege Managerは無料でも使用可能であり、LabVIEW Interface for Arduino Toolkitもまた無料アドオンだと認識しており、無料の範囲で導入しようと考えております。（LabVIEW　2013は購入しております）
    宜しくお願い致します。

  • LabVIEW controlled Arduino outputting self-clocking signal

    Hello All,
    I am trying to be able to control my LED light strip (http://www.adafruit.com/products/1376) using LabVIEW and Arduino. To do so I need to make Arduino output a digital self-clocking signal, specifically a combination of two square waves of fixed frequency with varying duty cyle. The two waves represent either a 0 or 1 to the LED strip.
    0   =   HIGH for 400 ns then LOW for 850 ns
    1   =   HIGH for 800 ns then LOW for 450 ns
    In the end, using either of those waves as a bit, I would like the full signal to have 3600 bits. After one full signal the pin would remain LOW until I want to change the color again, and would send another 3600 bit signal.
    (If you want more info on the data transmission protocol, there is more info here: http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-neopixel-uberguide/advanced-coding#writing-your-own-library)
    Is there a way of controlling the output of the Arduino at such high speeds through LabVIEW. If you can think of any way of doing this, please let me know.
    Thanks!

    AFAIK, the arduino LabVIEW interface module only reads and writes pin values, and it can't do this with the timing precision you need. The only way around this is to write some arduino code, which can't be done in LabVIEW.

  • LabVIEW Interface for third party EtherCAT slaves

    I have a third party EtherCAT hardware (slave) and software. I am using and industrial PC with Intel PRO network card as the EtherCAT master. This setup works fine, and I can talk to the EtherCAT modules using the thirdparty software. 
    Now, I would like to develop a LabVIEW interface to talk to the EtherCAT slaves for testing purposes, since most of my test programs are written in LabVIEW.
    Is it possible to write EtherCAT software in standard LabVIEW 2013 using an inustrial PC as Master?
    If I use the DLL of the third party software, do I need LabVIEW Real Time module for etherCAT communication?
    -Thanks

    Hi rosh,
    I think it will depend on how the DLLs are designed. If you call the DLL at the right rates, you may be able to avoid using LabVIEW Real-Time. If you want to run LabVIEW Real-Time on your PC, you would need to replace the existing OS with LabVIEW Real-Time. Once you do that, you may be able to run your existing DLLs but compatibility is not guaranteed. This KnowledgeBase article describes the process of determining if your DLL is compatible with LabVIEW Real-Time (NI PharLap ETS is what installs when you replace the OS). For our other Real-Time operating systems on different targets, you would need access to the original source code so you could recompile for the new target.

  • LabView interface for SRS DG645

    I need to implement a driver for my SRS DG645 module connected to my computer by an NI GPIB, does a driver already exist in LabView? I need a LabView program interface on my computer seperate of my module to control it. I read that Stanford Research Systems does not assist with LabView programming for their machines, and so I have yet to find a LabView interface created for this module.
    Thanks for any help!
    Kelsi

    Hi zeddy and others.
    Sorry for replying on old post but i got just the same question.
    I will be using SRS DG645 for my project on LabVIEW 7.0.
    Do i need any driver for it?
    When i search at NI website, i found some plug and play drivers for DG645.
    but there are no driver for labVIEW 7.0.. 
    http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.download_page?p_id_guid=D62E8D508F9832E6E0440021287E6A...
    Plus, the drivers need NI VISA 5.2 version to work.
    Does that version with my LabVIEW?
    Here is the compatibility table of Ni-VISA and LabVIEW but there is no LabVIEW7.0 in there.
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/CF4279A34F855AB186257B1F00003B82

  • I would like to create a pop-up window appear from Labview Interface. In this window, I will have a slide control and an image taken from a camera. The main VI have to run while pop-up window is open. How can I do ?

    When I pushed a button, this pop-up window has to appear. There will be a slide control and a picture from a camera in this window. Is it possible to make appear this windows while main VI Interface continue to run ? How can I do this ? Thank you for your answers.
    Cyril.

    Here you go. This is simple example. Maybe not the best way, I am just
    beginner in LV and still not comfortable with data flow that much. I prefer
    events, so I would change this to use Event Structures.
    When you click on OK button on SliderMain, it opens Slider.vi. Now both
    windows are open and you can interact with both. Now if you click on OK
    again with Slider.vi open, you run into problems. Only thing I did was
    change VI properties of slider.vi, mainly window appearance.

    I apologize for the delay in getting back with you.  Here are the screenshots from the main VI, and what appears to be the problem VI from the error message.  It appears as though LabVIEW finds the files correctly, but this error pops up which says it can't find a VI.  Thanks for helping me with this issue.

  • "problem installing LabVIEW Interface Generator"

    Hello,
    I am running labview 7.1, windows xp sp2.
    I am interested in trying out the new labview interface generator, but something seems to be going wrong on installation.
    I download and run the executable, it unpackages a bunch of stuff pretty fast, then it starts unpackaging an "MDSPlus" package that takes a very long time (20 minutes). Then the MDSplus install wizard comes up, I press ok/next. Then another very long wait while it installs, then finally a message saying MDSplus installation complete, click close to exit which I do. Then that wizard goes away, as does the extracting zip dialog. No errors, everything seems fine.
    But then when I open labview, there is no change: same old tools under tools/instrumentation. There is no "interface generator" on the list produced by add/remove programs (top level or under National Instruments). The only thing added is MDSplus.
    Have attempted several times, rebooted, etc. Still no new tools.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi TR:
    Thanks for your patience.   I think we (at NI) started barking up the wrong tree.  I went back to your original post and notice you said things like MDSplus, 20 minute install time, etc.   I'm wondering if this is something as simple as you are running the wrong installer.  The self-extracting archive file for the LabVIEW Interface Generator tool is named "driverctolv.exe".   Is this what you downloaded and are running?  If not, please go back to the web site:
    https://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/nigb.guestbook?code=GB_INFOLVINSTDRIVER&lang=US&gb_prof_id=4982&scode=...
    Fill in the info again, select "Continue" to get to the next page.  If you are running Internet Explorer, right-click on the "Download the utility for LabVIEW 7.1" link and select "Save Target As...".  You should see the filename at this point.  Verify that it indeed has the name listed above.   After download then run the extracting archive.  The installer should take no more than a minute or two to install (no where near 20 minutes) and the dialogs should not indicate MDSplus.
    I did a few Google and other searches on MDSplus.  It seems that there are VI wrappers around MDSPlus libraries.  So, maybe you are also using this product separately?  
    If, for some reason, you are indeed launching the driverctolv.exe and somehow the MDSplus installer is being launched, we really need to take a totally different approach to problem solving.  But, maybe you can confirm before we go down that path.
    Again, thanks for your patience.
