No GPIB connection, but visible in MAX

The device is visible in MAX, but I am unable to communicate with it, either by using the 'Communicate with Instrument' or the 'VISA Test Panel'.
This seems slightly sporadic, as I have once or twice been able to connect and send a successful ID query (It's too old for *IDN? ...). However, even if I reach this point I either then get error 0: not able to connect to device/driver or error 6: timeout within Labview, and then I am unable to do anything in MAX after that point.
I have tried disabling timeout, switching cables, turning everything off and on again all to no avail.
This is very frustrating as with my standard setup I have not changed any VI's, settings, cables or anything since it was working fine earlier.
Cheers for any input.

Sure, I'll see what I can find and if it helps at all.
Interestingly, today the 5210 connected fine and I was able to test some new code and everything worked perfectly...

GPIB connection fault after checking connection in NI MAX

Hi,
I have a problem with a system I am using.
I am connecting to 3 Keithley 2410 power supplies in labview using the Agilent 82357B USB/GPIB Interface.
The labview program works... but if I check the GPIB connection in NI MAX or in Agilent connections expert before/ during using labview then Labview can no longer connect to the power supplies. It can originally connect to the first two and then the third connection fails following by them all failing.
Any help would be much appreciated,
Thanks
E

Sounds like you just forced access to the GPIB resource from your LabVIEW program and then you couldn't get the access back. In general, it is a really bad idea to have multiple programs access the same bus.

Working with Agilent Infiniium 54830B DSO and Labview: Why is the GPIB device not displayed in MAX?

Hi,
I want to use Labview to access Agilent 54830b scope, but the GPIB device is not shown in Agilent Connection Expert or in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).
In Agilent Connection Expert (Version 16.2.15825.0) the GPIB0 Interface is displayed, but no Instrument is shown. In MAX (Version 4.6.1f,0) it is the same problem. The GPIB0::INTFC is shown under Miscellenous VISA resources, but no Instrument is shown.
I installed the driver for the agilent and tried to get an answer of the GPIB device with an Initialize.vi of Lab View but it is always shown an error.
Can anyone help me?

What? Your instrument has to be connected in order for MAX to find it. So, yes, you need the cable to connect between the instrument and your computer.

There was a problem connecting to the server "Max Time Capsule"

Disclaimer: Previously posted here (Ask Different) and similar to this.
I'm trying to use my MBP inside and outside my office, and having it backup to my 2TB Time Capsule when on its wireless network, or defer backups when not on the Time Capsule's wireless network.
Unfortunately, if I've been on a different wireless network for a few hours worth of backup attempts, bringing the machine back onto the Time Capsule's wireless network doesn't resume backups, and Time Machine never recovers. I can select the disk as a backup drive in the Time Machine preferences, but the disk remains unavailable from the Finder, and any backup attempts yield the standard:
There was a problem connecting to the server "Max Time Capsule"
Check the server name or IP address, and then try again. If you continue to have problems, contact your system administrator.
My WiFi connection is through the same Time Capsule that hosts the backup drive, and its name and IP address have decidedly not changed. The only thing that seems to help is restarting the Time Capsule, but that is an inconvenient workaround at best.
The problem sounds similar to Backup Disk Not Available, but the answers to that question are either to restart or change the disk name or turn off the 5 GHz network (which didn't help). I also looked at /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeCapsule.plist, but found nothing that seemed relevant.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My MBP is running OS X 10.7.5, and the Time Capsule firmware is 7.6.1.

There was a problem connecting to the server "Airport Time Capsule".
The server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again.
I still have internet connection, and have tried other suggestions across internet but really the only fix has been to power cycle the ATC. This unfortunately is only a temporary remedy for a day or so until it returns.
Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?
There is no fix.. I have written a bunch of suggestions to try.

It is very common on Mavericks.
How long did it take from when you set it up till it went bad??

Task timeout in VI but not in MAX

I am reading 21 analog signals from a 6225 DAQmx and I also want to read 2 frequencies. I am using the two counter inputs for this. I have gathered all DAQmx reading in one VI and created (in MAX) one task for the analog channels and two tasks for the two frequencies. I have separated the three readings in a secuence structure, first a read the analog signals and then the first frecuency and the the second.
My problem is that I get a timeout error from one of the frecuency readings as if no signal were connected but when I test the same task in MAX it works fine. I am uncertain on how to use Start Task and Stop Task or Clean Task but I believe that I should use Start Task and Clean Task. For the reading I have configured DAQmx Read to Counter DBL 1Samp.
What can I have done wrong?
I've attached the VI.

Hello!
I looked at your VI and the main problem with it is that you don’t control the order in which the program will execute. As it is now in the program you have uploaded there is nothing that controls in which order the control tasks will execute. Insert ‘DAQmx Stop Task.vi’ before each ‘DAQmx Clear Task.vi’ and if you want to achieve sequential behavior use the error cluster to control the order. Just wire the error cluster the upper code snippet that handles the analog input to the middle code snippet where you handle one of the counter parts and so on.
Hope this will help!

USB/directshow camera not visible in max/imaqdx

I've got a Chameleon USB2.0 camera from Point Grey and I'm having problems getting it to show up in MAX.
I'm running a fresh installation of labview 2012, MAX 5.3.3f2, IMAQdx 4.0, IMAQ 4.7 on a windows 7 x64 lenovo T420 laptop.
I'm aware of the problems with registering the DirectShow filters for the Point Grey cameras: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/7DF278AF77461951862579AD0063B9AD
I've tried all of the various driver versions from Point Grey, and currently have installed the v2.4 x86 version
The camera is visible using AMcap, a lightweight DirectShow viewer, so it seems that the camera is operational and the DirectShow interface is functional.
I had an older version of Labview installed, and the camera was visible in MAX. I wanted to upgrade versions but didn't use the NI update service and just downloaded the various files from the website. About the time I upgraded MAX to 5.3 the camera disappeared from MAX. I assumed some problem with the upgrade, so I completely uninstalled both Labview and the camera drivers and tried a fresh installation, but I still can't see the camera in MAX.
Any ideas about how to get my camera to show up in MAX?
Thanks!

Did you find anything? I have two Mightex USB cameras hooked up and believe that I might be having the same problem.
I can actually get both devices to show up in AMCAP, but the 2nd camera that I have hooked up to the computer doesn't show up in NI-MAX.
I have spoken with the camera manufacturer and they have verified that these DirectShow drivers have worked on old versions of LabVIEW. Please get back to me if you know anything regarding this error.

Goepel PXI-3220 not visible in MAX

I have installed 2 goepel pxi-3220 cards into a NI PXI-chassis. But there arent visible in MAX. The drivers in the windows device manager are present and working fine. I would like to have these two cards visible in MAX. Does anyone have any experience with these analogue output cards?

Hello,
Only devices that were produced using the VISA driver development Wizard are viewable in MAX. If the 3rd party manufacturer did not use our driver wizard, then the device will not show up in MAX. If that is the case, the card must come with a programming API and also some sort of configuration program. It sounds as though the drivers and are installed correctly since you see them in the device manager.

NI PCI 5102 not visible in MAX

Hi all
I've got a problem on a testrig. I use a PCI 5102 high speed digitizer to acquire a signal. Since this morning, the acquisition and processing of this signal has slowed down and now it takes twice as long as before.
What could be the cause of this problem?
During searching for a solution on the system, I found that the device is not visible in MAX. Two weeks ago, I updated the testrig to LV8.0, which means that I made a single installer - more information to this can be found in this thread:
http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=164285&view=by_date_ascending&page=1
As said, I installed this approximately two weeks ago and it ran without any problems until this morning. So I wanted to test the card in MAX so that I maybe find something, but firstly it took a relative long time to open the Items and Interfaces node and secondly there was no item in. No PCI 5102, no Fieldpoint modules, no serial ports - although I use these devices in this app.
Is this maybe related to my original problem of the massively slowed down acquisition?
Any fast answer that helps to solve the problem is really highly appreciated, as this testrig is part of a production line.
Thomas
Using LV8.0
Don't be afraid to rate a good answer...

Thomas,
I'm not sure why your 5102 measurements are slowing down, but I do have
a likely solution to your issues with MAX. Hopefully fixing MAX
will remedy both problems.
1) Browse to C:\Program Files\National Instruments\MAX. There is
a folder named "Data" that has the configuration info for MAX.
2) Delete the "Data" folder after making a copy on your desktop (it is
rare, but in some cases it may be useful to recover old
configurations). If Windows won't let you delete the folder, try
ending the nimxs.exe process from task manager. If you have any
tasks or scales saved in MAX, they will be deleted in this step.
3) Reboot your computer and open up MAX. This will force a
refresh of all configuration information for your system, and will most
likely clear up your problems with MAX.
Please let me know if this works for you, and if this fixes the issue
with your digitizer as well. If this doesn't help, there are
other debugging steps that we can try.
Thanks,
Travis W

Browser cannot display E3200 router web page from ethernet connection but can from wireless

I have installed my E3200 downstream from the Verizon FiOS Actiontec (going the other way disables FiOS functions).
1. My browser can get to the E3200 (192.168.1.2) when connected via wireless, but not when connected via ethernet cable.
     How do I fix that?
2. When going to connect wirelessly, the 2GHz connection is visible but the 5 GHz connection is not
     (I have them named differently).
     How do I see both wireless connections?

My browser cannot get to my E3200 setup web page from a wired Ethernet connection (wireless works fine).
The Linksys E3200 (1Gb ethernet, “n” wireless) is installed downstream from a Verizon FiOS Actiontec router (10/100 ethernet, “g” wireless).
I cannot put the E3200 upstream from the Verizon router because I would lose FiOS TV capabilities.
The E3200’s fixed IP address is 192.168.1.2 (the Verizon router is 192.168.1.1)
I cannot change the subnet (e.g. to 192.168.2.x)
Clearing the browser cache and rebooting both routers doesn’t help.
Both computers tested have dual band “n” network adapters.
So... wireless connection works fine, but I cannot get to the setup page via wired ethernet.
Help?

Itunes says I don't have an internet connection but I can access the internet. I turned my firewall off. How do I get onto itunes store

I can't access my itunes store, it says I don't have an internet connection but I do. I tried updating to the newest version of itunes, turned off my firewall, checked to make sure itunes was allowed in my internet options. what else can i do?

Hello bigblue8
Check out the following articles for troubleshooting access to the iTunes Store. The first one will probably get you started enough to get it taken care of. If it does not the follow up article should definitely solve it for you.

The wi-fi on my ipod touch is connected but the internett is not working! Help

Soo annoying, it's connected but the internett is not working. I don't know what to type in or what to do, so I need help.

Are you 100% positive you are connected? Head to Settings - Wi-Fi and tap the > next to the network you are connected to? What is listed for an IP address? If it's in the 169.x.x.x range, it means your iPod did not properly receive a valid IP address via DHCP from your modem/router. So the 169.x.x.x address is a self-assigned one.
This can usually be resolved by a reboot of your router. You can do this by unplugging it for about 30 seconds. After it powers back up, try reconnecting it. It wouldn't hurt to try a reset of your iPod as well. To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

JetPack 4G LTE connects but "no internet access" message

Would appreciate any help.
My JetPack 4G LTE mi-fi connects to the internet (3G or 4G) and shows that my devices are connected to it. However, I cannot get on the internet.
1) I have three different devices - two laptops and a smartphone. All three have the same problem.
2) I have a Sprint Mi-Fi that I use for a different business. All three devices can and do connect to that device and work properly on the internet during the same sessions in which they cannot connect on the Verizon JetPack. So it is not the devices I am trying to connect with.
3) The exact same thing has happened several times over the course of about 4 days and in two cities and two states - all three devices unable to connect via JetPack but connect fine through Sprint Mi-Fi. So it is not location or local network issue.
4) LED display on JetPack, in all instances, show a strong 3G or 4G (depending on where I am) signal and also that all three devices are connected.
5) Message on laptop wireless area shows connection but says "no internet access".
6) Under the wireless status or details, it says (on the list of info): "IPv4 no internet access" and "IPv6 no internet access".
7) I have done a battery pull with no effect.
8) I have done a factory reset (power up, remove cover, press reset button until long green light and short green light) with no effect.
9) After both battery pull and factory reset, I still show connected to 3G, all three devices connected, no internet access, and all three devices then work on the Sprint mi-fi.
10) Symptoms started about 4 days ago and have not changed since - it is not a come-and-go problem. It is not working at any time.
I am hoping to gosh to avoid a long ordeal with tech-support at Verizon. This is a company-issued device, so I could ask my company to take it up with Verizon, but I work remotely and access to the IT department is not that simple either. thought I would see if I am missing something simple. I hope I've given enough info for someone brighter than myself here can spot something I could do.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Thank you for your response. I am having trouble logging back into this site to respond (I never created a User ID and don't know my cell phone number as it is a mi-fi and not a cell). I reregisterd for the forums only under a slight ID variation and will continue to do so for this dialog. Thanks very much.
The back of the Jetpack says SSID: "MiFI4620L Jetpack 89B4". I am currently using the device (since the problems began last week) in zip codes 49504 and 49503 - same symptom both places.
Thanks again.

On 3G we cannot send emails from either our iPhones or iPad and this also happens with some WiFi connections but not all. Yet we can always send emails from our Hotmail Email account. What is causing this and what do we need to do to resolve it?

On 3G we cannot send Business emails from either our iPhones or Ipad and this also happens with some WiFi connections but not all. Yet we can always send emails from our Hotmail Account using both 3G and WiFi.
We bought the iPhones and Ipad so that we could send emails while we are out of the Office, but we are not able to do this unless we can find a WiFi connection. Incoming emails are fine. We use IMAP, for Business emails just incase this is relevant and I know that Hotmail is POP3.
Our technical IT knowledge is not great, so we look forward to your suggestions as to how to resolve this.

Contact whomever supports the email account and get the correct Outgoing email server settings from them.

I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2

I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Already gone through troubleshooting guide a zillion times. Thanks.

This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.
