No daqmx vis in measurement i/o in Labview 8.5 after install

Labview 7.1 also resides and can them. How to fix for 8.5? Running NiDaq 8.7.1 Tried copying Daqmx folder from vi.lib under program files\7.1 to 8.5  Tried same for Nidaq Mx.mnu under menus\default. Also for folder daqmx under menus folder. Any ideas?

When you installed LabVIEW 8.5, did you then run the NI-DAQmx installer?  In order to get DAQmx support for a newly installed version of LabVIEW, you'll need to run the installer again so that the installer can add support.

  • NI-DAQmx is not available in LabVIEW 8.6 after installing DAQmax 8.7.1

    I have both LabVIEW 8.0 and LabVIEW 8.6 installed on my laptop running Windows Vista.  After the successful installation of  NIDAQmax 8.7.1,   NI-DAQmx is only available in LV 8.0, but not LV8.6.  In LV8.6, can only see MAX configuration under 'Measurement I/O'.     Can anyone help on this?   Thank you.
    (I need DAQ assistant for my application coded in 8.6)

    Thank you  for the link. I've installed DAQmx8.9.  Now, LV 8.6 got DAQmx, while it dissapeared from LV8.0,  because NI-DAQmx8.9 does not support LV 8.0.  So it is impossible to have DAQmx in both LV8.6 & LV8.0 at the same time, is it?

  • How to get I32 enum text out of a control (i/p terminal config, active edge of DAQmx vis)

    Hi,
     I am using DAQmx VIs create channel.vi and sample clock.vi, they have inputs (input terminal configuration) and (active edge) both are I32 and have enum looking drop down options. i want to use those text values to put into my excel file, but they give out numeric codes related to respective option. is it possible to get the text as it is.
    it is not an enum but I32 which looks like enum..
    plz help..
    Thanks

    Note: This assumes that you have an actual control on the VI. If you have a
    block diagram constant, then that won't actually work. In this case to get the actual text you need to pick from list of text items. To further complicate things, the actual values that are generated are not sequential. You can use either a case structure or a 2-step lookup.

  • Multiple inputs and outputs using DAQmx VIs

    Hello,
    I am fairly new with the LabView programming language.  I have a few training books that I have been reading, and I have been following online tutorials and reading the forums.  However, I have come to a problem where I don’t see a clear solution.  I am using LabView 2009 (9.0f3) and DAQmx VIs.
    I am using a NI 9172 chassis PLC, with two 9201 AI cards, 9217 AI RTD card, 9472 DO card, 9263 AO card, and two 9237 AI Bridge cards.
    I am reading eight analog inputs with the 9201 cards, two analog RTD inputs with the 9217 card, three digital outputs with the 9472 card, three analog outputs with the 9263, and eight analog inputs with the 9237 cards.
    I wrote a simple program to test one digital output task, two of the analog output tasks, and a single analog input task.  I put all of them in the same while loop, and it worked perfectly.  However, when I add analog input tasks to the same loop, I get an error 200022.    So I tested each sensor individually by changing the channel before each run.  I searched error 200022 and found that this is because I cannot start another analog input task until the previous one ends.  With this said, I don’t know how to acquire an analog voltage in the same task as an analog RTD voltage.  Both inputs take different constants in the start task DAQmx icon.
    Attached is my test program.  It is titled “Test All”. This is the program I used to test the various sensors.  I tested the input sensors one at a time, and it worked fine.  A few tasks are written just to test functionality, and will be added to later.  The data is only displayed on the screen.  I will add triggers and data write to disk functions later.  This program works now, but if I add more analog inputs, it will generate the 200022 error.
    Can someone show me how to correctly write the code for multiple inputs and outputs using DAQmx?  All training materials and tutorials I can find all show a single input or single output, not multiples of each.  Thanks for looking.

    Hi RandyC,
    The Knowledge Base article Using Different Types of DAQmx Global Channels in the Same Task goes into a little more depth of what Bryan is talking about, and it also includes some example code to help show what to do.
    Hope that helps,

  • Can read TEDS in MAX but not with DAQmx VIs

    Hi,
    I have a cdaq 9181 with a 9234 accelerometer module.  I have 3 teds equipped accelerometers connected to ai0, ai1, and ai2 repectively.  In MAX, when I reserve the chassis I can read all three teds, no errors.  When I do the same thing in labview (ie reserve the chassis, create a daqmx task, associate teds data with each physical channel, all with daqmx VIs) I can only read two out of three teds.  The third one throws a "no teds sensor detected" error.  This code has been in use for about four months now, though I just rewrote the calling VIs, and hasn't displayed this problem.  I've attached a snippet of the task building VI for reference.
    Any ideas what's going on?
    Thanks.

    Nope.  That's a delete from array, length 1, index 3.
    In any case, I eliminated that block since the string array wired to the for loop controls how many devices the VI attempts to configure.  Same result, verified it was trying to configure ai2.  Here's the updated snippet:

  • DAQmx VIs Timeout Problems

    Hello,
    I am trying to acquire 9 frequency input chanels thorugh PXI-6624 card.
    I have 9 independent loops for 9 frequency counter chanels. I am able to read all the frequencies above 10Hz properly.
    Now the problem is,
    Sometimes there will be no pulses, and the Counter Input DAQmx VI will wait for timeout.( I have given the timeout of 1 sec). During this time my CPU consumption goes very high and I am not able to read any of the analog inputs too.
    and say if similar condition happens to all the 9 frequency input channels then my software hangs.
    I have tried using wait mode method but i wasnt able to read any frequency with it.
    I have also read it that, when "Counter Input DAQmx VI is in timeout mode at that time we cannot make any other DAQmx VIs call". Please refer this link http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3166

  • I seem to be missing DAQmx VIs?

    I installed v 7.0, and then tried to run an example DAQmx VI from the developer zone. However, the VI can not start because a lot of DAQmx VIs seem to be missing. Doing a search on my Labview 7.0 directory, I do not find any VIs starting with DAQmx*.vi.
    Furthermore, choosing Functions|input, I do not see the DAQ assistant (I think that is what it is supposed to be called?)
    p.s. I am using the Prof devel system version/

    Hey!
    You have to download the DAQmx from http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/websearch/BEC182021CEB566C86256EEE00696562?opendocument&node=132060_US

  • Why don't DIAdem VIs and DAQmx VIs install when upgrading?

    Hi all,
    I'm on my third upgrade of the Developer Suite with DIAdem.  Every time I install a new version, I have to manually reinstall both the DIAdem connectivity VIs and the DAQmx VI library.  Am I missing a step in the install?  This is tripling the amount of time it takes to upgrade and introduces more opportunities for me to mess something up...overall not fun.
    Thanks.
    CLAD

    What do you mean by manually reinstall?  So for me here is how it works.
    New developer suite DVD packs come in for 2014.  Put in DVD 1, pick my products to be installed which include LabVIEW, DIAdem, TestStand etc.
    The install goes and installs all the products I picked, then at the end it asks for device drivers to install.  DAQmx is picked by default so I tell it to install and it finishes.
    At the end of this I have the newest LabVIEW, with the newest drivers.  The only interaction I have is at the start saying what products to install, and at the end saying what drivers to install.  Sure this could be more stream lined to ask about drivers up front but overall the process works.  It knows it needs to install LabVIEW before the other tools so it does.  And it knows it needs to install drivers after LabVIEW so it does.  If you are installing things one at a time, and in your own order I could see where problems could happen.
    EDIT:  Oh and I forgot the other interaction for swapping DVDs mid install.  But what I do is merge all DVDs into a single folder on the network so it doesn't prompt for DVD swapping.

  • DAQmx Counter Input Measure a single pulse's pulse width

    Trying to measure a single pulse's pulse width. It appears that the DAQ only makes the measurement on the read command instead of after starting the task. I just get a timeout error. Is there any way to arm to counter for measurement or am I better off making a seperate thread to trigger my single pulse?
    double measured;
    int numSamp;
    TaskHandle taskHandle;
    DAQmxCreateTask("", &taskHandle);
    DAQmxCreateCIPulseWidthChan(taskHandle, "Dev1/ctr0", "", 0.025, 0.120, DAQmx_Val_Seconds, DAQmx_Val_Rising, "");
    DAQmxSetChanAttribute(taskHandle, "", DAQmx_CI_PulseWidth_Term, "/Dev1/PFI10");
    DAQmxStartTask(taskHandle);
    //Trigger the single pulse here
    DAQmxReadCounterF64(taskHandle, DAQmx_Val_Auto, 10.0, &measured, 1, &numSamp, NULL);
    Thanks,
    Dan

    Which device are you using?
    If you configure implicit timing (DAQmxCfgImplicitTiming) your measurements will be buffered and will begin when the task is started.  The minimum buffer size is usually (always?) 2 samples, but that doesn't mean you have to read two samples back.

  • Kdcom.dll error after installing NI-DAQmx 7.5/8.5 on Windows XP Pro

    We are trying to switch from including a fully computer drawer in our product to just using a SBC (Single Board Computer).  In the past we have used Pentium 4 boards with the NI-DAQmx 7.5 suite and had no problem.  The current board we are testing useds the Intel 855GME GMCH chipset with a 1.0 GHz Celeron M Processor.  After installing the software and I am prompted to restart, and upon restart a notorious Windows blue screen of death comes up saying that there was an error error with kdcom.dll.  (exact error below)
    A
    problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent
    damage to your computer.Stop:
    0x0000007E (0xc0000010,0xFAFF2A0,0xF7A16344,0xF7A16040)
    kdcom.dll
    – Address F7AFF2A0 base at F7AFF000, Datestamp 3b7d8346
    I have installed both DAQmx 7.5 and 8.5 getting the same results with both.  I have tried to disable all of the onboard functionalities of the board (video, ethernet, sound) and still I have gotten this same error.  (Note: I have done default installs as well as full studio installs)
    Has anybody seen this error before and knows what is causing/how to stop it?
    Is it quite possible that the NI-DAQmx 7.5/8.5 software/drivers are just not compatible with this SBC?
    Here is a link to info/specs about board that I am having trouble with: WinSystems EBC-855
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I'm not sure that this is a DAQmx related issue. A Google search reveals that kdcom.dll is a Windows dll - what leads you to believe that DAQmx is involved? I'm not a Windows supporter, but there do appear to be a few discussions in that search with issues very similar to yours - did you try replacing that dll? As long as your computer is an x86 architecture and/or on a supported OS, DAQmx should be able to run on that machine. You may want to hit up WinSystem's support to see what they have to say from the computer side.
    Hope this helps, please don't hesitate to post back if DAQmx is the culprit or if you have any additional questions.

  • Sites I visit most often won't work immediately after installing Leopard

    Immediately after installing Leopard the three sites I visit most often won't pull up at all. They just show an error as if the MacBook isn't connected to the internet.
    Other sites pull up fine.
    These three sites I am trying to visit pull up fine on other computers.
    These three sites won't work regardless of what wireless network I'm on.
    The problem is exactly the same between Firefox and Safair.
    What suggestions do you have or where can I start?
    Thanks a ton guys

    Figured it out. I have a program called SelfControl that helps block sites that you find yourself killing a lot of time on. Well after the update it appears that it was somehow activated and thus wouldn't allow those sites to come through. Unique problem.
    All fixed now.
