Labwindows/CVI and Android

Hello,
I work in Labwindows/CVI on Windows XP for the moment, I developpe a software and I would like to know if it will be possible to make a software, the same that this one to run on Windows, which runs on Android please ?
My software uses a SQL database (SQL Server) and an OPC Server (Phoenix Contact).
If it's possible, how can I do to create this application and install on a tablet for example?
I just know that a "NI LabWindows™/CVI Run-Time Module for Linux" exists, but I don't know if this module allows me to install my software on a tablet...
Thanks.
Bye Karine

In addition Android programs are normally written in Java, which has nothing
to do with CVI. But I read a tutorial some time ago that showed how to
compile C for Android. So at a very basic level of a pure ANSI C program
with no (or duplicate) user interface, it is possible.

If I have helped you, why not giving me a kudos?

I used to working with Labwindow CVI and i would like to know how can i use the commands "loadpanel" and "Displaypanel " in Labview. Using Invoke Nodes?

I want to make another panel appears and runs, but i don´t want to use a subpanel. So, i would like to use somenthing similar to Loadpanel and Displaypanel, that you can use in Labwindows CVI, but in Labview, is ti possible?I hope your answers, thank you!!!

Hi Bichillo,
I posted an example here.

Labwindows CVI and RT Module

Hi All,
I have a developed a Real time application using Ni Labview. In this I have developed a GUI using NI Labview and RT Module in Labview.
Iam able to read and write data from HOST PC GUI to the RT Module applications. I am exchanging the data between GUI and RT Module using the shared variables.
Now I want to recrate the GUI using the Labwindows. I still want to use the RT application developed in NI Labview.
So Previously GUI was build in Labview and RT Application running on RT Target is also built in NI Lab view.
Now I want to Create the GUI in NI Lab Windows CVI and still use the RT Application build in NI Labview.
Is it Possible to do it.
Can any provide any links.
Waiting for your replies.
Ramesh.

Hello Armand -
Instead of using the LabWindows/CVI implementation of SetSystemTime, you should use the Win32 implementation. To do this, ensure you've included windows.h as the first include file in your source.
Let me know if you have any questions.

I use LabWindows/CVI and SCXI modules, how can i check the polarity of a capacitor during an ICT?

I am a newbie using CVi Lab Windows and SCXI modules, how can i perform ICTs to check the proper polarity of a capacitor?

Hello,
That's a big question for a single sentence. Could you give some more details about the hardware you have, and the measurements you want to take?
By the way, when you say ICT, do you mean In-Circuit Test or something else?
Thanks,

LabWindows CVI and SQL Toolkit cursor/schema error

We are using CVI 8.5 and SQL Toolkit 2.0.6 to write data to a SQL Server 2008 database. We are utilizing the Microsoft ODBC SQL Server (non-native) driver. We build a transaction that calls stored procedures on the database to write the data. Occasionally we get the following error:
"Could not complete cursor operation because the table schema changed after the cursor was declared"
The error is unusual since we only use one cursor and it is in a stored procedure that gets called by other software hundreds of times a day and never fails. Our database is also designed to only append records, not change existing ones. We're trying to pinpoint the error and I'm wondering if anyone knows if the SQL Toolkit uses cursors to build transactions or if this error has been seen by others. Since upgrading the toolkit or drivers takes a lot of effort, I want to make sure that I understand the problem before I start throwing darts at it. Thanks in advance for any insight.

I've attached the function that's failing. Unfortunately, the code isn't designed with much resolution as to what SQL toolkit call failed, since these calls haven't failed once validated and put into the production environment. Can you tell if any of these functions use a cursor. I could certainly try adding more resolution to the error handling, but since we've only seen errors occasionally in the production environment, I'd need to release a temp version and monitor it. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

LabWindows/CVI and IMAQ - Invalid Image Type when saving bitmap

I create and image, grab it, then display it, but when I go to save it using imaqWriteBMPFile, I get an error that maps to Invalid Image Type, so I use imaqCast to cast it to an IMAQ_IMAGE_U8 type (which is what the orignal image was created as), then it works, except that my image has changed, that looks like the contrast or something has changed. Any suggestions?

image.bmp ‏302 KB

What kind of camera & IMAQ board are you using? I have seen similar problems when a 12 bit camera is used. The image is acquired as a 16 bit image, and if you just convert it to an 8 bit image, it ends up looking like the one you attached. To correctly convert to 8 bits, you need to shift the appropriate number of bits during the conversion. For a 12 bit camera, that would be 4 bits.

How to access the result list in teststand after execution using labwindows/cvi

I am developing a user interface in labwindows/cvi that runs multiple teststand sequence files and would like to combine their reports (generated in teststand) into a single file at the end of a UUT. What is the best way to do this? At the moment, I'm trying to access the result list local variable after the execution has ended using API calls from labwindows/cvi and an end-of-execution callback event but those run-time variables do not exist anymore. How do I get a hold of the result list array at the end of an execution? I would like to grab this variable and pass it along from sequence to sequence using labwindows/cvi and not teststand itself. Is this possible? Any help would be great.
Thanks in advance,
Luis

Hey Luis,

Documentation on How to Develop an OPC Client Using LabWindows/CVI?

What documentation is there on how to develop an OPC client application using LabWindows/CVI? What tutorials, if any, are there? What reference manuals, if any are there?
I am completely new to LabWindows/CVI. I will be starting soon with the tutorial, "Getting Started with LabWindows/CVI". However, our application needs to communicate with an RSLinx OPC Server. Any documentaiton on how to learn to do this would be very much appreciated.

http://www.ni.com/white-paper/4626/en/ Just did a quick google and this came up, Labwindows CVI and Labview are quite different but I usually look at Labview examples then try take the general idea from the example and apply it in CVI, hope this helps

Configure PXI-2567 to Trigger on Rising Edge using LabWindows/CVI

I need some help configuring the trigger edge for a PXI-2567 using Labwindows/CVI. I have been able to successfully create and execute a scan list using both the ni-switch and daqmx APIs. However, currently the PXI-2567 triggers on the falling edge of an input trigger. I need to configure it to trigger on the rising edge of an input trigger. Every function I could find in the daqmx API for configuring the trigger edge gave a non-fatal runtime error, and I could find no such functions in the ni-switch API.
Any help configuring the input trigger edge on the PXI-2567 using Labwindows/CVI would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi JonRice,
You can configure the scan list to execute on the rising edge of an input trigger. Here are the Labwindows/CVI and LabVIEW functions you would want to use to retrieve, specify or verify the edge of a digital signal that advances to the next entry in a scan list.
NI-DAQmx C Property: More >> Advance >> Digital Edge >> Edge
You can get/set/reset this property using:
DAQmxGetDigEdgeAdvTrigEdge
DAQmxSetDigEdgeAdvTrigEdge
DAQmxResetDigEdgeAdvTrigEdge
NI-SWITCH C Attribute: NISWITCH_ATTR_TRIGGER_INPUT_POLARITY
You can get/set/check this attribute using:
niSwitch_GetAttributeViInt32
niSwitch_SetAttributeViInt32
niSwitch_CheckAttributeViInt32
NI-DAQmx LabVIEW Property: More:Advanceigital Edge:Edge
DAQmx Trigger Property Node
Short Name: Adv.DigEdge.Edge
NI-SWITCH LabVIEW Property: Trigger Input Polarity
niSwitch Property Node
Short Name: Trigger Input Polarity
Hope this helps! Let me know if you have further questions.

Q: Must one use special LabVIEW types (e.g. float64) for DLLs in LabWINDOWS/CVI?

Hello,
I have recently started compiling C code using LabWindows/CVI, and have successfully called a simple DLL function from within LabVIEW.
I have a question about the types defined in LabVIEW's extcode.h file:
These are defined to explicitly quantify the number of bits used for each data type (e.g. float64 instead of float) in order to eliminate ambiguity across compilers.
When I am using LabWindows/CVI to compile, do I need to use the LabView numeric types defined in LabView's extcode.h, or can I use the standard C types (int, float, etc.)?
Is there a distinction between having to use these special types for CIN versus shared library calls in LabVIEW?
Thanks
in advance,
Frenk

You do not have to use the defines in extcode.h, but you certainly can if you want to.
The float64 is equivalent to CVI's "double", and the float32 is equivalent to CVI's "float".
These correspond to the double- and single-precision types in the IEEE Standard for Floating Point Arithmetic, IEEE-754.
I hope this helps.

Interpolate 1D Array function in labwindows cvi

Does anyone know of a labwindow corresponding function to the labview Interpolate 2d array ?
I am working on converting labview programs to labwindow/cvi and could use the help with this one.
Pete

Hello Pete,
LabWindows/CVI does not have a built in function to do interpolation. In order to do the interpolation in CVI you would need to create your own code. I believe I found some code from another post that should work out for you (http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=180&requireLogin=False&thread.id=24187). Let me know if this is what you are looking to do.

Measurment studio will not recognize LabWindows/CVI installation?

It order for me to use the Driver factory program to make a DLL, the program requires that LabWindows/CVI version 5.0 or greater be installed. Version 5.5 was installed first and Measurment studio does not recognize it. After installing the DAQ software, MAX does recognize both LabWindows/CVI and Measurment studio. Help!
Steve

Hi Steve,
What the IDF does, is
(1) Look for the installation of CVI in the registry under HKLM/Software/NationalInstruments/CVI/xxx. "xxx" being the version number.
(2) If there are multiple CVIs on the machine, IDF uses the highest version number of CVI located i.e.if you have
HKLM/Software/NationalInstruments/CVI/5.0
and HKLM/Software/NationalInstruments/CVI/5.5 it will pick 5.5.
(3) IDF will then look up the installDir key under this folder.
If either of (2) or (3) fails, you get the message you've been seeing.
So what do you see under that registry location ? Is the registry version folder, or the installDir key missing?
It is possible that the machine had installed a higher version of CVI , then uninstalled, but the folder a
nd key is still there, so you have a key with a higher version of CVI, with the installdir key pointing to a "" value, instead of a valid path....
If things do appear fine in the registry, then please reconfirm the software you have installed, as i under stand it, you have CVI 5.5, then installed MesurementStudio 6.0 ? I can try to then reproduce this.
I sincerely apologize for all the trouble that you have been having...I hope this makes things little clearer and hopefully we can get you started soon..
With regards to the other thread that you pointed to , it's possible that the evaluation CD did not install all the registry keys or installed them to a different location, or the user, did not install CVI at all...

Nandan
