NI Update Service: Upgrades & Service Packs: LabVIEW 2012 FPGA Module Xilinx Tools 10.1

Hi,
I downloaded / installed the newest LV 2012 release - everythin fine so far (its great )
NI-Update Service proposed the installation of a service pack - download and installation worked too.
NI-US also suggests to update the Xilinx tools for the FPGA module, but the download is not working. Seems like the download-link is broken??
Any suggestions?
Another interesting question: I live in Austria (German speaking), but we use Windows & LV entirely in English in our company. The NI-US however is heavily localized - even the item description is in German. While this is OK for me, I still wonder if I could change it to English too.

Hi Benjamin,
OK, I see, if the PC doesn't have any Xilinx tools installed at all, then Update Service will not offer you the update. It only displays upgrades to software that is already installed.
This log from the other PC shows that the Xilinx 10.1 update fails to download, as your message said initially, but unfortunately it doesn't say anything more.
We released a bunch of new updates last week, and since then there have been a few cases like this, but it doesn't seem widespread or easily reproducible. I can see in our server reports that other users successfully downloaded this update yesterday.
I attached a downloader file that you can try. Unzip the file and run the exe. All it does is point to the same download location that Update Service is using to download this file. If the downloader works, then the problem is with Update Service. If the downloader doesn't work, then we'd know that something on our web servers isn't delivering this file properly.
Also, if you happen to have any HTTP traffic monitoring software (like Fiddler), I'd be interested to know what it says is happening during the file download request.

  • NI LabVIEW 2013 FPGA Module Xilinx Tools 10.1 Download Troubles

    I am trying to download the  Xilinx Tools 10.1 to use with a 9113 chassis in LV2011.  Based on this white paper the compiler below should work just fine.  The problem is I can't get it to download all the way.
    I can't seem to get past ~336MB using the standard or NI downloader.  Any ideas?  Anybody else having this problem?

    Well... on the bright side, you don't want 10.1 anyway!
    Virtex-5 LX50 <- REQUIRES Xilinx 14.4.
    10.1 is only for Virtex-II devices! (...after LabVIEW 2009 that is, just so everyone reading this knows).
    soo.... try this link: http://www.ni.com/download/labview-fpga-module-2013/4248/en/

  • LabVIEW 2012 used to hang at shutdown, now hangs at launch ("Initializing menus")

    Hello,
    I'm running Windows 8 64-bit, and have LabVIEW 2012 32-bit (12.0f3). I started using it a few days ago, and was never able to shut down LabVIEW properly. I could close my projects, but when I then tried to exit LabVIEW from the home screen, the GUI simply stop responding, and I'd have to forcibly kill it. Then, I installed the latest VIPM, and noticed that I can't shut that down properly either (I believe VIPM is implemented in LabVIEW?). None of my non-LabVIEW-based programs have this issue.
    Then, I tried to install OpenG from within VIPM, which launched LabVIEW itself. However, that hung at "Initializing menus".
    I'm not sure if VIPM had anything to do with it, but now, I'm unable to start LabVIEW altogether. Even after restarting my machine (using the Restart option, not Windows 8's Hybrid Boot), LabVIEW would hang at "Initializing menus". Task Manager shows 0% CPU activity, and LabVIEW had only taken ~20MB of memory.
    What could be the cause, and how can I fix it?
    Thanks

    Ok, I:
    Uninstalled ALL National Instruments, JKI, and IVI software.
    Rebooted
    Manually deleted residual NI, JKI, and IVI files/folders
    Cleaned the Windows registry of NI, JKI, and IVI entries
    Rebooted
    Checked Task Manager to ensure that no NI service eluded deletion
    Installed LabVIEW 2012 from the NI Developer Suite DVD (LabVIEW only -- no other components)
    Rebooted
    Launched LabVIEW
    LabVIEW launches now, but I'm still unable to shut it down properly... One day it will probably refuse to launch too.
    Some help please?

  • 2012 FPGA Upgrade Procedure

    I am trying to upgrade my Professional Development Environment from Labview 2011 to 2012.
    Is there a clear explaination of what software I need for the FPGA module? In particular I seem to struggle with getting a new compile Worker up and running.
    I see several Labview 2012 FPGA related files in the download section, but am confused as to what get used to set up the my development computer and then what gets used to install the Compile Worker on a remote computer.
    This all worked for me under 2011.
    Thanks
    Rick
    Just a little whine, but I am on day 4 of trying to bring my environment up to 2012, as it has been a fight every step of the way so far

    Hi Rick,
    I'm not sure I exactly understand what problem you are having, but I'll try to give you some direction.  You'll want to install LabVIEW 2012, then LabVIEW FPGA and LabVIEW Real Time Modules if you have Real Time available to you.  Finally, if you are trying to compile something you've developed in LabVIEW 2012, you will want to make sure that you have Xilinx Compile Tools 13.4 for LabVIEW 2012 installed on your computer as well.
    After you get all that installed, you'll want to install NI-RIO 12.  After a reboot, you should be able to compile to your local compile server.  If you haven't installed the 13.4 compile tools, that is probably the cause of the issue you are seeing.  I hope this helps.

  • Spartan 3E with Labview 2012 (32 bit) on WIndows 7 64-bit - Error Code: -310602 NI-COBS: Unable to communicate with device over communication cable.

    Thanks for the info, Kyle.  I will probably try to find an older 32-bit XP machine.  VM is just not an option for me right now.

    Hello everybody,
    I am trying to use the DIgilent Spartan 3E board with Labvew 2012 SP1 32 bit.  I am able to compile the example code for LED shift.  I am however unable to transfer code to the FPGA.  I get the following error message:
    Error Code: -310602 
    NI-COBS:  Unable to communicate with device over communication cable. 
    Please verify that the cable is connected to a supported device and that the appropriate drivers are installed.
    My system configuration is as follows:
    Windows 7 (64 bit) on Dell XPS laptop.
    Labview 2012 SP1 (32 bit)
    Labview FPGA 2012 SP1
    Labview 2012 FPGA support for Spartan3E
    Xilinx 13.4 tools
    DEFB LV FPGA 2012sp1 support installer
    Xilinx USB cable driver v1.3 installed.
    I took all the precautions mentioned by others on this forum and others, mainly that the cable must be disconnected before installing the Xilinx cable driver. All software and drivers were installed correctly.  I even uninstalled and reinstalled the entire Labview software set I had.  I still get the same error.
    A few other questions:
    1.  Is the Xilinx cable different from a regular USB cable of the same configuration ?
    2.  When I program the FPGA I only have the USB cable connected between my computer and the Spartan 3e board.  Should any other cable be connected ?
    3.  What should be the correct jumper settings for J1 - JP30 (especially J30, J11, JP9, JP6, JP7, etc) ?
    I have been at this or over 3 days trying to figure it out.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.
     

  • FPGA Module F1 patch update failing installation

    NI's update service informed me that there is an urgent patch available for the FPGA module I recently installed.  When I run the installer, I get a message that the 2012 FPGA module must first be installed for the update and the installer exits.  The 2012 FPGA module is installed and activated according to the NI License Manager and FPGA tools are available on the pallettes.  The path to my install directory is default (C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\..) and I have rebooted since the installation.  Any ideas?

  • Are admin and office clients always updated for each service pack.

    Hi,
    I am investigating upgrading our BPC version from 7.0 SP3.   The question I have been asked by my business clients is "do the admin and office clients of BPC always get updated with each service pack?"  I assume they do because the install guide indicates that you must update them to the same version as the server.  Upgrading the client versions is always a concern here because since we don't allow the automatic update our plans have to include packaging an SMS deployment to over 500 workstations of several different configurations and locations.

    Hi,
    Yes, there are changes in the clients in every service pack. This is why it's important that the version of the client matches the version on the server. We've seen issues where there was a mismatch and no one could log in because of the changes in the client.
    I would advise always updating the clients when adding a new service pack.
    Regards,
    Jason

  • Upgrade Service Pack (pros and cons)

    Hi,
    We need to upgrade the PI 7.0 from SP16 to SP17, could you please guide with the positive & negative aspects of it.
    Regards
    Prathibha

    Hi,
    Upgrading Service pack in PI environment is a common task,
    The new service pack always offers some new benefits like (SAP solves some bugs in current version SP), so chance of getting bug/error will be less. Some times it offers new features.
    Negatives some times java mapping programs, if you used any external jar files, it may create some problems (few times).

  • How to Upgrade Service Manager 2012 SP1 with Windows 2008 R2 to SCSM 2012 R2 with Windows 2012 R2

    Hi,
    We are using Service Manager 2012 SP1 UR2 with Windows 2008 R2.
    I am planning to upgrade Service Manager to R2 with Windows 2012 R2. I found the steps to upgrade SCSM 2012 Sp1 to R2 but need assistance to upgrade with 2012 R2 OS.
    Please suggest how to achieve the above mentioned objective.
    Regards, Syed Fahad Ali

    Virtualization solves this problem handily, by allowing you to create a new server to run the new program on the same hardware. it also solves the related problem of moving off unsupported hardware without changing OS or application. VMware is my personal
    favorite, but Hyper-V, Xen, and VirtualBox all have similar capabilities.
    Compare the cost of work and confidence in success of a upgrade, where any of thousands or millions of uncontrolled settings could cause an issue, to the cost of work and confidence in success of installing a new OS instance and configuring a known state
    for the new environment.
    In short, upgrades should no longer be a thing. there are just too many ways they can go wrong, and it's far too easy to create a new OS with minimal expense and effort.

  • What files do I send to be upgraded from LabVIEW 5.1.1 to LabVIEW 2012?

    OK.  Just to be clear.  I am a complete newb to ANYTHING LabVIEW or LabWindows related.  I am a programmer, but I have never used any version ever.  That said, I am responsible for the upgrade process of getting our old LabVIEW 5.1.1 system up to date.  The old system (still running and doing it's job everyday), is an old Windows NT v4.0 SP6 system running LabVIEW 5.1.1.  You can just imagine how ancient this is by today's standard.
    Have I set the stage properly?  I hope so.  Newb, Ancient LabVIEW version 5.1.1, Windows NT 4.0, upgrading from 5.1.1 to 2012.
    Now here is what I "think" I know about what is required.  Because LabVIEW 2012 will not directly read in, process and /or compile LabVIEW 5.1.1 files, I must first open and save the files using an intermediate version of LabVIEW (specifically 8.2.1) to bring the files up to a version that 2012 can handle.  I have noticed in reading the Version Conversion forum, that I can attach a zip file of my LabVIEW files and one of the resident Gurus will convert it for me and give them back - quite nice I think.
    Now, I have what I think are all of the required LabVIEW vi and llb files that make up this system we have in place, but I want to be sure before I just post a bunch of stuff.  
    What exactly do I need to zip up and what can I leave out? 
    Are there LabVIEW vi and llb files in a "project" that are not needed? 
    Are there any setup/configuration/project specific files I need to include? 
    Are there any limitatations to this conversion process that I need to be concerned with - such as various toolkits/suites/modules that may have been used but are no longer supported?
    Secondly, I am not really comfortable with posting my vi and llb files for the world to see (and possibly use) as I am not the owner of said modules, just the user/future developer who will be responsible for insuring they stay up to date.  Is there any way I can send my files to a specific NI guru via email instead of just posting them?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    So if I understand you correctly,  all I really need to do is to get LabVIEW 8.2.1, and update my .vi, .lib, and any .ctl files to that version.
    Is it a simple matter of just opening the files and hitting something like SAVE AS, or just SAVE and it will do this?  Once done, LabVIEW 2012 will then allow me to open them and do what I need to do?  Do I have to save them into LabVIEW 2012 first, or is that automatic when I try to recompile them?
    When I get a copy of LabVIEW 8.2.1 (eval version), do I have to get all of the pieces (modules, toolkits, etc.) in order to update the 5.1.1 files?  Based on what is installed on that NT v4.0 system, we have the following items installed:
    NI VISA
    NI ComponentWorks 3D Graph
    NI DataSocket
    NI LabVIEW 5.1.1 Advanced Analysis Library
    NI LabVIEW RTE 5.1.1
    NI LabVIEW v5.1.1
    NI Measurement and Auto Explorer 1.1
    NI-488 2.1.60
    NI-DAQ 6.6
    NI-PAL 1.3.110
    NI-Reports
    NI-VXI/VISA
    You mention DAQ.  Our program uses NI DAQ v6.6 now.  I have LabVIEW Developer 2012, so I just download the DAQ files for it and it will replace the NI DAQ v6.6 library files we use now? 
    Thanks for your help so far.  If we had a support contract in place, this wouldn't be an issue.  However, as I stated, I am not the owner of the files, just the currently assigned caretaker, and part of my task is to get from where we are now on this ancient hardware/software platform, to the latest and greatest.  However, I am specifically not allowed to just place the files on a public forum for all to see.  It just isn't done.  We can send them to a known location and a known entity, but not to just anyone/anywhere as a public forum is by its very nature.   
    I know there is nothing you guys can do if I cannot give you the files, but thanks for helping me to do it myself.    Getting an eval copy of 8.2.1, et. al is probably what I have to do here.
