Measurement & Automation Explorer would work under lookout 6.02

Hello,
The Historical data viewer, Measurement & Automation Explorer, for Lookout, would not work under Windows XP. It never start and just says that it have found a fail and stops, then It would like to send a report to Microsoft?
I have tried to repair the installation, it did not help!
\Lars

Try to uninstall the Lookout 6.0.2 and MAX. Then, reinstall them.
Maybe one or more files of MAX have corrupted. The repair may not fix it.

  • Getting NI MAX (Measurement Automation Explorer) to work through NAT

    All,
    I've been having no end of grief trying to connect NI MAX to my remote cDAQ 9134 (Linux RT) through a cellular gateway (firewall/NAT). I currently have all the ports I think are even slightly MAX related forwarded to the IP of the cDAQ. The IP address assigned to the cellular gateway is part of my corporate network, i.e. this is not a remote private IP but instead an IP on my WAN. 
    Currently the following ports are forwarded:
    80
    52725
    3580
    20-22
    53
    48080
    The web UI function works across this arrangement, as does SSH - but not MAX.
    NI MAX will find the device at first, but then it transitions from connecting to a red-X icon... but not before discovering the serial number and a few other parameters (not all).
    I need this to work so I can remotely deploy new software modules to the cDAQ 9134.
    Has anyone accomplished something similar in the past? Am I possibly missing a port?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Jeff

    Hello Jeff,
    As long as you have unblocked all of the ports pertaining to NI MAX in this White Paper:
    http://www.ni.com/white-paper/12402/en/
    you shouldn't have missed anything. Is there any way to connect it locally, or does it have to be over the network?

  • Different scaling and sensitivity units for acceleration in Measurement & Automation Explorer

    Hi,
    I am using  Measurement & Automation Explorer version 5.1.0f0.  I have previously configured my accelerometer using this module.  Under setting, I have used g as my scaled unit.  The sensitivity units is set at mVolts/g.  This is just fine.
    However when I tried to change the scaled units to m/s^2.  I DID NOT get the option to set the sensitivity units into mVolts/m/s^2. 
    Is it OK to continue using mVolts/g for sensitivity units even when I had changed the scaled units to m/s^2.  Since the two engineering units are different, will the accelerometer output correctly give out m/s^2 reading or I have to make some adjustment at the vi post acquisition like dividing with 9.8?
    Thanks

    You do need a scale (oh, setting one up with slope=9.8 and offset around 0 ought to get mV/g to mV/M^2 pretty effectivly)

  • Building an executable without configuring the Measurement & Automation Explorer

    After building my FieldPoint executable I want to install the program on a target computer. There I need the FieldPoint Server and the LabVIEW runtime engine. Why do I have to manually configure the Measurement & Automation Explorer (attaching the .iak file), when my .iak file is included in the installer of my executable? And how could I solve it, that I would not have to configure it for every user of the computer again?
    I would like to have an executable which is ready to run after the run of the installer...
    Can somebody help me out?

    I don't have the proper things in front of me at the moment, but here is a guess as to what your problem might be.
    When you use a FP IO Address, the default root for the address is Fieldpoint, which is the last iak file that was saved\opened in MAX. I think that if you change this in your program to a different file (there is a second tab in the IO address window where you can do this), it should force the program to go to the specific iak file.
    Try to take over the world!

  • Lost connection to measurement & automation explorer

    Once in a while Labview loses connection to Measurement & Automation Explorer so I'm unable to execute the "*IDN?" command to obtain my GPIB ID unless I manually open up Measurement & Automation Explorer then manually rescan for my instruments again then Labview will see it.  This is extremely cucumbersome if it has to be done manually.  So is there a better way to programmically forcing Measurement & Automation Explorer to rescan the instrument? 
    Note:  If I click on VISA  -> Refresh, it always found attached devices by its addresses but it won't let me execute *IDN? query command once in a while.  This does not happen all the time.  Just at random unexpected time.  What worries me is my program is expected to run testing & evaluation for 2 months period, if this issue requires manual configuration then it becomes a big deal.
    Thanks

    Why are you trying to control MAX from LabVIEW? You do not need to do this to communicate with instruments. Rescanning for instruments in MAX is also irrelevant as far as communicating to instruments from LabVIEW. What kind of GPIB controller are you using? It sounds to me like the problem is more likely to be there.

  • Run cleanup utility, then all ivi drivers in the measurement & automation explorer are deleted,

    Hello I have the following problem,
    I run the cleanup utility, then all ivi drivers in the measurement & automation explorer are deleted.
    when I want to add for example a new driver session then that is not possible to click on "create new".
     What is the problem?
    regards samuel

    Cedric,
    In this case its the usb-serial adapter that is likely the cause of the issue.  As mentioned in this KB it is likely that MAX doesn't know how to recognize the third-party adapter.  You may want to refer to this KB that talks about making VISA calls to third-party devices as it may be useful.

  • Can't use the Measurement & Automation Explorer in the dl eval version

    I'm trying out the evaluation edition of LabView. I try to use the Measurement & Automation Explorer, but I get an error saying its not installed.

    Hello,
    You should be able to use MAX with LabVIEW eval. To make sure MAX is installed, go to
    ...\Program Files\National Instruments\MAX
    If you have NIMax.exe, MAX is installed. Even if you don't have LabVIEW installed, you should still be able to open MAX from this location.
    Do you get this error when launching MAX from its installation directory, or when opening some of the LabVIEW wizards that call MAX? The LabVIEW Evaluation Version gives the option of installing simulation DAQ VI's. If the complete install option is chosen, the simulation VIs are installed.
    To avoid this, choose a custom install and don't allow the Evaluation Version to install NI-DAQ. After the LabVIEW Evaluation Version is installed, install NI-DAQ and include support for LabV
    IEW 7.0. The DAQ VIs will now read data from your DAQ device. There is a link to the NI-DAQ download page below.

  • Measurement & Automation Explorer

    I'd like to know where can I get the software "Mesurement & Automation Explorer".
    The manual for the IMAQdx (Image Adquisition Software) says that with "Measurement & Automation Explorer" you can configure a camera.
    The configuration is saved in a configuration file,  which is used later by the IMAQdx.
    But I don't find anywhere the MAX (Measurement & Automation Explorer) .
    Can anybody help me?
    Thank you in advance

    HI ffolch, MAX comes with other drivers, you can download DAQmx, drivers for example to get it, also if you have the IMAQ drivers, MAX should be in the cd.

  • Measurement & Automation Explorer parallel command

    I am able to see LPT1 port in Measurement & Automation Explorer, but I am not sure that if I want to have Parallel port = 0 or = 255 ... can I write in Vi_Write 0 or 255? Or oupt 0 or outp 255?
    *) I did connect pin 11 & 12 to GND
    Thank to any help

    I found out the answer myself, just type directly the disired byte:

  • MAX(Measurement & Automation Explorer)によるPCI-GPIBボードの確認

    PCI-GPIBボードをPCに接続した際に

    という説明があったのですが、MAXはどこにあるのでしょうか？
    現在使用しているverは6.0(LabVIEW6i)というものです。
    このverにはない機能なのでしょうか？
    対処方法を教えていただきたいです。

    MAXはLabVIEWおよびNI-488.2をインストールした際に一緒にインストールされますので、まずスタートメニューにMAXのアイコンがないかご確認下さい。通常はスタート→全てのプログラム→National Instruments→Measurement & Automation にございます。

  • My MS Office Communicator opens when I click "Communicate with instrument" on Measurement & Automation Explorer.

    Hi,
          Recently I'm encountering some problems on using the "communicate with instrument" option on Measurement and Automation Explorer.  When I tried to click "communicate with instrument" button, my MS Office Communicator starts to open, then an error message will appear  indicating that "specified address is not recognized or does not exist". With this  I can't  use MAX Explorer
    for debugging purposes. Apart from that problem, communication between my PC and my instruments are okay during the VI run. Hope you could help me on this. Thanks!

  • Bad scaling using measurement automation explorer

    I have tried about a million times now to properly create a scale in MAX 3.0.2
    Essentially, all I want to be able to do - fairly simple you would think - is apply a linear multiplication to an input channel of an AC signal voltage. Without any scaling, I am seeing my input signal as a +/- 8 VAC signal. After applying a linear or a mapping scale, it does scale the voltage, but it then proceeds to trim off the top of the AC signal(And I have checked to make sure my graph axes are correct)?????? If I apply a multiplication factor of 5 inside my program it works absolutely fine and simply multiplies the incoming voltage by a factor of 5... sounds like scaling to me. I would like to use scaling on other channels, but
    this experience does not give me much desire to. Can anyone explain what is going on? I have tried creating the scale in dozens of different ways always getting the same results.

    Hello,
    Are you using NI-DAQ Virtual Channels or NI-DAQmx Tasks? I don't think that your scale settings are wrong but the Input range you've selected. Go to the "Analog Input Voltage Task" Window (for DAQmx Tasks). There you've to select your custom scale and define your Input Range. Try to increase your Input Range to expected scaled value and not to the real voltage your measuring.
    Hope this helps.
