NI VISA and Signal Express - Error -1073807202

So I did a search on this very common error that I'm also having, see error1.jpg. So one of the responses was to try and make an installer which I'm trying to do, see error2.jpg. I hope that is the right thing to check to fix the error (nobody said in the previous posts that I read). Then it asks me to find Signal Express. So I get out my DVD of Labview 8.5.0 and point it to the location (J: drive), see error3.jpg. But then Labview tells me that it is an invalid location. I mean WTF? I'm getting really annoyed by now and do another search of the forums. I find a post that says to look in MAX to see where Signal Express is located. So I do that and then put that location into the installer builder dialog box. Guess what it tells me, see error 4.jpg. So now what do I do????
Solved!

Are you getting error 1 when running an application on a deployment computer?
Yes, the error happens when I install the application (using the installer I built) on both the inhouse deployment computer and the computer of a customer I sent the application to.
I checked the deployment computer and the RunTime Engine is installed, but I see no referance to VISA. Surely you're not suggesting that I ask my customer (and any other customer who requires the application) to go to ni.com/support to download the 28.5 MB file (if my memory is correct) for the VISA drivers just to talk to a com port. So I need to fix my installer.
So I have a couple of questions.
Has this distribution problem been fixed in LabView 8.6.1? I have a copy just never installed it as I saw no real need to upgrade since my system so far has been working.
Did I check the right box, NI-VISA Runtime, (for Signal Express) to get the installer to include the VISA drivers?
I would like to get the next version right as I'm sure my customer has a reduced opinion of me for sending him a program that doesn't work.

  • Report generation toolkit and signal express user step : problem of closing reference in "Stop" event

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to make a package of Vis to easily make Excel reports with Signal Express. I'm working on LabVIEW 8.2.1.
    I'm using the report generation toolkit, so I build a .llb from my project which contains all the hierarchy of my steps, but also the hierarchy of dynamic VIs called.
    I have made some steps, like "Open Workbook", "Write Data", etc.
    My steps run well, excepts one step : "Close Workbook".
    If my "Close Workbook" step is firing on "Run" Signal Express event, I have no error, so my reference is properly closed.
    But if my "Close Workbook" step is firing on "Stop" Signal Express event, I have an error "1", from "Generate Report Objectrepository.vi".
    I feel that I'm trying to use a reference which has been killed in the "Stop" step...
    I would like to know what exactly do Signal Express on "Stop" event and why my close function does'nt run well.
    Thanks,
    Callahan

    Hi Callahan,
    SignalExpress (SE for short) does the following on the Stop event:
    1. Takes the list of parameters that SE found on your VI's connector pane, and sets the values that the user set from the "Run LabVIEW VI" configuration page, if any.
    2. Then tells the VI that SE is running the Stop event by setting the Enum found on your VI's front panel. This in turn should produce some boolean values telling your VI to execute the Stop case.
    3. The VI is then run, with those values and states.
    4. SE checks to see if any errors where returned.
    5. Since this is the Stop event, SE releases the reference to the VI which it possesses.
    Questions for you would be, is the reference to your Workbook linked to a control on your connector pane, or held in a uninitialized Shift Register. If it's held in a Shift Register, SE would not be aware of it, and would not be able to affect that reference.
    Hope that helps. Feel free to post your LLB if it doesn't.

  • PWS4000 and Signal Express

    Hi,
    I recently get a PWS4305 power supply, I installed SignalExpress as recommended.
    I just want to generate a signal and control the PWS with labview.
    So I selected 'add step' ->'tektronix'->'generate a signal' -> 'tektronik power supply'.
    Here, a display shows two line, one for the voltage, another one for the current.
    I can find my PWS in the VISA Ressource. But how can I generate a signal ?
    Thank you

    egfrgr,
    I believe you may need to download and install the following SignalExpress step before using your PWS4305:
    LabVIEW SignalExpress Step for PWS4000 V2.0.0
    Please read through the release notes for installation and usage instructions, copied here for reference.
    Steps for using the Steps:
    1. Run the setup.exe provided as part of Step Installer.
    2. Open the LabVIEW SignalExpress Tektronix Edition software.
    3. Click "Add Step" in the LabVIEW SignalExpress Tektronix Edition main menu and select Tektronix-> Generate Signals -> select your instrument series.
    4. The Step appears in the Project View of Signal Express and is ready to be used.
    5. Connect the instrument to your PC.
    Note: You can check the connection to your Instrument using the Measurement & Automation Explorer or the TekVISA OpenChoice Instrument Manager.
    6. Next, select the device in the LabVIEW SignalExpress step by selecting the "VISA Resource" tab and selecting the device in the "VISA Resource Name" drop down list. At this point, the interface is ready for use.

  • Signal Express- error 200279

    This is more of a recommendation than a question.  I have been having a very bothersome issue with error code 200279 running SE under Vista on a pc with 4 g memory.
    In frustration I added a 16 g memory stick ( with cruzer or ReadyBlast features) and run it under Vista ReadyBlast option.  Guess what, no more error codes 200279. I suggest you note this as solved.

    Hi
    The buffer is a temporary storage used by the daq unit to store samples. It is from this buffer you draw your samples. Not from the daq unit directly. If your buffer is filled up faster than you read from it. You will experience a buffer overflow, and corrupted data readings. The solution may be to increase the buffer size. But if the buffer is filled up faster than it is read, you will in any eventuality experience a buffer overflow. My guess is that you have a flaw in your code, causing the buffer overflow. If you post your code here you will get the help you need. 
    Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted

    Hi, Parth,
    Parth Divekar wrote:
    So your suggestion is to have it in a procedure ...form a dynamic sql using values from query and then execute the sql..That's one thing you can do.
    You might also look into string aggregation, where you have one gargantuan column containing all the pivoted data from all the abbreviatons, no matter how many there are. That big column can be formatted so that it looks like several distinct columns.
    Assuming dynamic SQL is the best answer, I find it easier to do in SQL*Plus, using files or substitution variables, as shown below. That's just my preference; you may like PL/SQL better.
    How to Pivot a Table with a Dynamic Number of Columns
    This works in any version of Oracle
    The "SELECT ... PIVOT" feature introduced in Oracle 11
    is much better for producing XML output.
    Say you want to make a cross-tab output of
    the scott.emp table.
    Each row will represent a department.
    There will be a separate column for each job.
    Each cell will contain the number of employees in
         a specific department having a specific job.
    The exact same solution must work with any number
    of departments and columns.
    (Within reason: there's no guarantee this will work if you
    want 2000 columns.)
    Case 0 "Basic Pivot" shows how you might hard-code three
    job types, which is exactly what you DON'T want to do.
    Case 1 "Dynamic Pivot" shows how get the right results
    dynamically, using SQL*Plus. 
    (This can be easily adapted to PL/SQL or other tools.)
    PROMPT     ==========  0. Basic Pivot  ==========
    SELECT     deptno
    ,     COUNT (CASE WHEN job = 'ANALYST'  THEN 1 END)     AS analyst_cnt
    ,     COUNT (CASE WHEN job = 'CLERK'    THEN 1 END)     AS clerk_cnt
    ,     COUNT (CASE WHEN job = 'SALESMAN' THEN 1 END)     AS salesman_cnt
    FROM     scott.emp
    WHERE     job     IN ('ANALYST', 'CLERK', 'SALESMAN')
    GROUP BY     deptno
    ORDER BY     deptno
    PROMPT     ==========  1. Dynamic Pivot using Script  ==========

    SPOOL     OFF
    --     *****  End of dynamic_pivot.sql  *****
    EXPLANATION:
    The basic pivot assumes you know the number of distinct jobs,
    and the name of each one.  If you do, then writing a pivot query
    is simply a matter of writing the correct number of ", COUNT ... AS ..."\
    lines, with the name entered in two places on each one.  That is easily
    done by a preliminary query, which uses SPOOL to write a sub-script
    (called dynamic_pivot_subscript.sql in this example).
    The main script invokes this sub-script at the proper point.
    In practice, .SQL scripts usually contain one or more complete
    statements, but there's nothing that says they have to.
    This one contains just a fragment from the middle of a SELECT statement.
    Before creating the sub-script, turn off SQL*Plus features that are
    designed to help humans read the output (such as headings and
    feedback messages like "7 rows selected.", since we do not want these
    to appear in the sub-script.
    Turn these features on again before running the main query.
    PROMPT     ==========  2. Dynamic Pivot using Substitution Variable  ==========
    --     *****  Preliminary Query:  *****
    COLUMN     sql_txt_col     NEW_VALUE     sql_txt
    WITH     all_jobs     AS
         SELECT DISTINCT
              job
         ,     DENSE_RANK () OVER (ORDER BY job)     AS r_num
         FROM     scott.emp
    SELECT     SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH ( job || '''     THEN 1 END) AS '
                          || job
                          || '_CNT'
                          || CHR (10)               -- Newline, for legibility only
                       , ', COUNT (CASE WHEN job = '''     -- Delimiter, goes before each entry
                       )                                       AS sql_txt_col
    FROM     all_jobs
    WHERE     CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF     = 1
    START WITH     r_num = 1
    CONNECT BY     r_num = PRIOR r_num + 1
    --     *****  Main Query  *****
    SELECT     deptno
    &sql_txt     -- Ends with newline, so occupy that line
    FROM     scott.emp
    GROUP BY     deptno
    ORDER BY     deptno
    EXPLANATION:
    Using a substitution variable is very similar to using a script.
    The main difference is that the output of the preliminary query has to
    go into one row.  This is done with SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH, and getting
    that requires that the jobs be numbered with consecutive integers, 1, 2, 3, ...
    which we get from DENSE_RANK.
    The NEWLINE character was added just to make the output line easier
    to read during debugging.

  • Problems activating signal express 2.0 in labview

    Hello,
    I have purchased a copy of LabVIEW Base Edition 8.2.1 and Signal Express 2.0.  I receive the following error when I create a LabVIEW VI containing a Signal Express VI (in this case a Signal Express Create Signal VI):
    NI_MAPro.lvib:
    This library is invalidly licensed for this computer.  Please contact your National Instruments sales representative to request an upgrade to access the functionality of this library.
    NI_Gmath.lvib:
    This library is invalidly licensed for this computer.  Please contact your National Instruments sales representative to request an upgrade to access the functionality of this library.
    NI_AALPro.lvib:
    This library is invalidly licensed for this computer.  Please contact your National Instruments sales representative to request an upgrade to access the functionality of this library.
    I have activated both the LabVIEW application and the Signal Express application and they both work fine indepedently.

    Some SignalExpress 2.0 Express VIs require functionality that is only available in LabVIEW Full or Pro.  Therefore, if you have LabVIEW Base and drop the Create Signal Express VI, your VI will be broken.  (If you convert the Create Signal Express VI to a subVI, you could find the VIs in question).

  • Can I use Signal Express for multiple customers for only the one time $699?

    How do I go about distributing Signal Expresss applications to multiple customers?

    Hi Nutter,
    Unlike LabVIEW, Signal Express doesn’t have any file distribution capabilities.  If your application uses only basic features, you could install the free LE version of Signal Express on as many computers as necessary.  If you need the full capabilities of Signal Express, however, you would need to purchase a license for each customer.
    An alternative to paying for Signal Express for each customer deployment would be to generate LabVIEW code from the Signal Express project and create an executable.  This process is described in the Knowledge Base articles Generate LabVIEW VIs from Signal Express and Deploying VIs generated in Signal Express.  Note that this method requires that you have LabVIEW installed on your development computer with Application Builder capabilities.

  • Signal Express not activated with Labview Full Development System Volume License

    I'm using a volume license manager to generate license for disconnected machines.  I just upgraded to Labview 2009.  The license files work for labview but are not working for signal express.  I have the Labview full development system which included signal express in the past.  Both labview and signal express work fine on my computer that also has the volume licensing manager software installed.   This computer is connected to the license server.  I need to get signal express activated on my disconnected machines. 

    LabVIEW Full Development licenses still include Signal Express. Are you saying that whenever you are connected to the server you can run Signal Express just fine, but whenever you create a disconnected license Signal Express is not able to launch? Can you verify that you are, in fact, checking a license out from the server whenever you are connected to the network?
    If you still have trouble I would recommend calling NI support so we could get more informatioin (such as your license file, contract ID, etc).

  • Signal Express Program Freezes After Driver Install

    Hello,
    I recently installed NI-XNET 1.4 on my machine and a few days later I went to run a signal express program that never had operational issue until after the driver install?
    What could of happened to this program to cause this failure?
    I have other SE programs that load effectively after the driver update but this particular one does not. 
    Any suggestions would be appreciated. 
    Tim

    Hi smoothdurban!  Thanks for posting!
    I'd like to get a little more information from you to see if I can get your signal express programs back up and running.  First, have you changed anything in any of those programs since you were last able to run run them?  Also, have you changed any hardware in your computer recently? XNET and Signal Express exist basically independently of one another, which leads me to believe that the installation of XNET was not the issue.  However, one step to take to verify that nothing was altered in Signal Express during the XNET install would be to repair the Signal Express installation.
    On a Windows machine, you'll want to go to your control panel under your start menu, then navigate to either "Add or Remove Programs" or "Programs and Features" depending on what version of Windows you are running.  You'll next want to navigate to National Instruments Software, then double-click.  Navigate through the list to find NI LabVIEW SignalExpress, then click the repiar icon in the window.  You will need the installation file you used previously to do this.
    If this doesn't work, please let us know!
