NI-VXI Driver VB6 Support

We have a test system that has a PCI-MXI-2 card connected to a VME-MXI-2 card. We have a visual basic 6 application that communicates through the cards to a VME chassis. We have been using version V.2.1.1 of the NI-VXI driver. We now want to add a new C# application to the test system which was written using V.3.5.2 of the NI-VXI driver. We installed the new version of the driver and the new application works but now the old one doesn’t. We would prefer to leave the old application alone. Is it possible for both versions of the drivers to co-exist on the same machine?
If we can’t use both drivers, we will have to modify the access functions in the VB6 code to work with the newer driver. We have a software manual (Software Reference Manual for BASIC, Part Number 320328-01) detailing the VB6 access functions for the old driver. Could you provide the needed information on the VB6 access functions for the new driver? I searched on the NI website and was unable to find such a thing. The VB6 application is a huge piece of code therefore re-writting it in C# or another language is not an option.

Hi Ken,
Unfortunately, only one version of the driver can exist and the new one will replace the older one. Changes in the driver should be documented in the read me for the driver. Hope this information helps.

Message access slower after VXI driver update

Hello,
Actually we have this configuration : PCI-MXI2 linked to a VXI slot0 in a rack containing around 10 signal and measure boards of every type.
Computer is an old one under windows XP SP2, with NI-VXI 3.5 and i don't remember VISA version which is from the same date as NI-VXI.
All programs are developed with CVI 8.
We are using mainly message based communication for board command but we use register based communication for data retrieving.
Last week, we did something we should never do. We updated the VXI driver which was version 3.5 to an earlier one (I don't remember the new version).
After this PCI-MXI2 driver was re-installed and all communication with VXI as significantly slowed down. We lost 15% of cycle time on each of the test sequences.
I can confirm that message based communication has slowed down, but I cannot confirm if register based communication has slowed donw too.
We swaped PCI-MXI2 board from a PCI slot to another, no change.
After this, we took a ghost we had from one year before. But, as the PCI-MXI2 board was not in its original position, the driver of the board has been re-installed. And in this case, we lost again our cycle time.
Then we try many configuration and parameters change without success. As we have a second identical test bench, we compared every parameters, and even we took parameters from second bench and we installled them in the first bench (using the .cfg files for PCI-MXI2 and VXIslot0).
Eventualy, we put the PCI-MXI2 board in its original PCI slot and use another ghost. As the MXI2 driver did not re-install, we did not loose cycle time this time! We just have to retreive the modifcation we lost since the ghost has been created.
So actually, I consider the system to be fragile, because if anything force a MXI2 driver re-installation, we will loose our actual cycle time! And we don't know why and how to correct it unless using a ghost.
If someone has an idea, I still have the hard drive with "corrupted" configuration to test it.
Thanks by advance!

Hello,
Can you tell me more about the driver you have installed ?
What version of VISA do you use with your card ?
To determinate the version of NI VXI which has been installed in your computer, you can open a files "Readme.txt" which is in this directory :
C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\NI-VISA\Examples\DotNET4.0\VxiInterruptHandler\cs
Moreover, the last version of NI VXI (NI VXI 5.3) do not support Windows XP SP 2 :
http://download.ni.com/support/softlib//vxi/Windows/3.9/readme.htm
If you have installed this version of the drivers, I suggest you to download an an older version of the drivers like NI VXI like NI VXI 3.8 :

OpenSQLException: JDBC driver not supported?

Hi @ all,
I need to connect to a DataSource with the WebAS 7 via SQLJ. As I try to connect to it with the SQL Engine set to "Vendor SQL" I get:
"The given connection "com.sap.engine.services.dbpool.cci.ConnectionHandle" is not an Open SQL connection"
As I try to get a connection to the dataSource via SQLJ with SQL Engine set to "Open SQL" or "Native SQL", I get the following Exception:
ResourceException in method ConnectionFactoryImpl.getConnection(): com.sap.engine.services.dbpool.exceptions.BaseResourceException: SQLException thrown by the physical connection: com.sap.sql.log.OpenSQLException: JDBC driver not supported for MS_SQL_SERVER database.
How can I get the SQLJ- Support?
Kind regards,
Uwe

Hi Uwe, all,
for using Native SQL/JDBC or Open SQL/JDBC, the database itself and the JDBC driver must be recognized as being in the supported set. The answer to that depends on what you mean in detail by "Web AS 7". Roughly speaking, it should be the JDBC driver released by Microsoft.
Open SQL/SQLJ is only available with a Open SQL/JDBC data source. Hence, there is no way around using Open SQL/JDBC.
Now, Open SQL/JDBC and Open SQL/SQLJ both requires tables (and other database objects) to be deployed via the Open SQL for Java Dictionary. Up to and including WebAS Java 7.1, the Open SQL/Dictionary supports deployment to the system database, i.e. the database (and schema) used by the installed server itself.
Given the above, the JDBC driver for a Open SQL/JDBC data source must already be present, because it must be the driver used by the server itself. When defining data sources, it is referred to as "system driver".
This leaves us with a Open SQL/JDBC data source to the system schema. You can then also consider to establish a data source alias to the server's system datasource.
Hope this helps. Best Regards, Dietamr

The JDBC 3.0 driver will work in a JDBC 2.0 environment (i.e with J2SE 1.2 or 1.3)
provided you use only JDBC 2.0 features of the driver

Looking for oracle JDBC driver that support Rowset

I am using oracle driver "oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver" downloaded from oracle.com and i am using cached rowset in my program but my program gave me runtime error :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.AbstractMethodError: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDatabaseMetaData.locatorsUpdateCopy()Z
at com.sun.rowset.CachedRowSetImpl.execute(CachedRowSetImpl.java:757)
at com.sun.rowset.CachedRowSetImpl.execute(CachedRowSetImpl.java:1385)
at WebRowSetSample.main(WebRowSetSample.java:73)
but if i used data driver provided by Data Direct "com.ddtek.jdbc.oracle.OracleDriver" then it is working fine but the problem is data direct driver is not free and cant be used in production server, so if anyone know any free driver that support oracle and rowset implementation or able to correct problem then plz help me out.
thanks...

Hi I am using latest driver from oracle site, but the problem is when i fire execute method of cahed rowset i throws error that i mentioned above, if you have any other driver than mail me on [email protected]

Driver OJDBC support version 8i,9i,10g,11g r2 we have not found ?

we have any database on development and try to using one more drivers and not work .
We needs driver multiple cover following with version 8i,9i,10g,11g r2
now lastest we can download ojdbc14 could connecting 8 ,9 10 only
please suggestion .
Many thanks a lot for advance .^^

I hope you are not running under Java 1.4. If you are using Java 5 or up, you can use OJDBC5 or OJDBC6 (the number indicates for which version of Java it is built). Both these driver series support connecting to the Oracle versions you mention.

Jabber 4.4 "Graphics card or driver not supported" error on one machine but not another.

Hi, I looked at the KB document but the email link on it no longer works.
I have two end-users using Jabber 4.4 on identical machines, same specs, same driver build and OS image. One gets the "Graphics card or driver not supported" error, the other does not.
We have two DellOptiPlex 7010's,
Both had 2 instances of AMD Radeon HD 7470 - they are dual monitor machines.
In both cases the driver version 8.922.0.0, Driver Date 12/6/2011. This is the latest Dell has on their website.
On one machine when I run a fresh install for Jabber for TelePresence 4.4 it works fine. But on another the user first gets
"supportabilitytest.exe has stopped working
A oriblem cause the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program."
Then when that's closed out we get:
"Graphics card or driver not supported!
New features in this version of Jabber Video are not supported by your computer's graphics driver.
Update to the newest graphics driver available and run Jabber Video again."
I can't believe it's just a matter of upgrading the drivers because in this case one machine with identical drivers works.
I appreciate any insights, thanks !

Hi ksouthall,
It sounds like the openGL supported version did not install on the one that is failing. There isn't much we can do regarding that error. Best practice is to always upgrade to the latest manufacturer's available driver. Client requirements are below.
Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit), Vista, or XP (SP 2 or newer), with OpenGL 1.2 or newer.
For 720p HD video calls, Intel Core2Duo @ 1.2GHz or better.
For VGA video calls, Intel Atom @ 1.6GHz or better.
Webcam, built-in or external. You need an HD webcam if you want other callers to see you in HD.
Broadband Internet connection with a recommended bandwidth of 768kbps upstream and downstream. You need about 1.2Mbps upstream and downstream for 720p HD video calls.
Regards,
Jason

Has anyone created a NI-VXI driver for the Ardence RTX operating system?

Has anyone created a NI-VXI driver for the Ardence RTX operating system?
a VXI instrument through a PCI-VXI-8335 card (in the PC) talking to a PCI-VXI-8345 card (in the VXI chassis) via MXI-3, Has anyone created a PCI-VXI-8335 card driver for the Ardence RTX operating system?

Now i want develop driver on RTX,my hard platform is similiar(PCI8335+VXI8340+1418A),and after i read the PCI baseaddress,i find PCI8335 only has memory-map,so that means if i want to driver this board ,so i take following steps list below:
1.use Rtmapmemory() to map the baseaddress to virtual address
2.using memset() or memcpy() to driver the 1418A board
is this right?
if you can give me some hints,thanks
or you can contact me :[email protected]

CVI Windows driver to support LVRT(Pharlap OS)

Hello,
We are in process of converting one of our LXI product driver to support LVRT. The driver was originally written using CVI. Most of the driver calls were simply pass through and execute a remote procedures using ONC RPC drivers. ONC RPC and driver internally use winsock 2 and POSIX threads. We came to know that LVRT doesn't support winsock2(supports uses only 1.1) and RPC calls.
What is the better and quickest way for porting the driver? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

I should add that without the update the Broadcom wireless adapter works fine with standard WPA or WPA-PSK but just did not have the WPA2 and WPA2-PSK options, which is how I had my router set up. There are 4 of us living here that share the router and did not want to have to reconfigure for WPA because of this issue.

Does Microsoft SQL Server 2k JDBC Driver SP3 support "trusted connections"?

I get the following error when attempting to connect to a SQL Server instance via JDBC :-
[Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC][SQLServer]Login failed for user '<username>'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
Does Microsoft SQL Server 2000 JDBC SP3 Driver support "trusted connections"?

No, the MSDE instance I'm trying to connect to from my J2 application is configured as "Integrated Windows Authentication" ONLY (i.e not "mixed mode" and deliberately so) hence my search for a JDBC driver that supports o/s-based authentication.
I appear to have found one now however at it appears that DataDirect's JDBC driver supports NTLM and Kerberos authenicaiton on Windows (although I haven't got it working yet).
Thanks for your reply tho'

P6N SLI Platinum, audio driver update gives "No Driver was supported..."

I have the audio driver from the CD that came with the mobo, but I wanted to update it to the new version. Currently I have R1.67 2.32, I tried to install the driver (R1.83 2.51) from http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=1&prod_no=1140 but get the message "No Driver was supported in this driver package".
Also, I went to the Realtek site and got their even newer driver R1.84 but it asked me to remove the previous driver first, I'd rather check with the boards first to see what is going on.

Another off topic question. Does the Dual Core Center work ok with Vista x64? Wondering just in case before I get to using it. On my first Vista install is seemed to work, 2nd format it would come up with 2 error messages and not start:
"Error! unable to load ntuneoem.dll" and "Failed to load overclocking driver! This program must run as an administrator."
I have ntune installed on my 2nd format (which I found out doesn't work in Vista 64 properly) but cannot uninstall it from Add/Remove. A wizard window comes up and closes in the same seconds when I click uninstall. Tried to uninstall using the MSI CD which with I loaded it, still gives an error (tried to google the error msg but the msg is extremely rare and doesn't point to the problem). Going to have to manually remove it it seems and hope I get it all.

What SSD Drives are supported on the T420

I am getting a T420 as my new Corporate laptop. I want to buy an SSD drive to replace the internal hard drive. I found the newest bios/firmware and looked at the Readme file. It lists the latest drives and model numbers but not any of the previous models? How do I get a complete list of all SSD drives/models supported on the T420? The laptop is going to be imaged with Win7 if that matters.
Any info is appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello and welcome,
Any list of drives you find in the README will be a list of drives supplied by Lenovo, not a generic list of drives that would work.
From the ltwbook ( ThinkPad Notebooks; 2005 to present (withdrawn models) ):
Some: Solid State Drive (SSD) / SATA 3.0Gb/s, 2.5" wide, 7mm high
Some: Hard Disk Drive / SATA 3.0Gb/s, 2.5" wide, 9.5mm high, Active Protection System™
So if you're replacing a hard drive, any 2.5" 9.5mm (or 7mm with adapter) SSD should fit.
Another option you might consider is an mSATA SSD. [edit] If the WWAN/mSATA slot is empty - no WWAN card installed. I use a 256GB Crucial m4 in my T420. The HDD is still installed as a data drive and spins down when idle. It's a nice quiet combo with plenty of storage. I also keep a backup of the SSD on the HDD.
