No icon in the control and simulation palette, toolkit is instaled

only question marks on the palette

Hi Adj;
Do you have more information on the LabVIEW and the control design and simulation toolkit you are using?
Here is a document that solves that issue for LabVIEW 8.2 and Control Design and Simulation Toolkit 2.1.1:

Design control and simulation palette

After hitting Next bottoms and succesfully installation for Design control and simulation toolkit , when I launchำก Labview programme there is nothing in this function and the palette is blank. Anyone knows what happen. I use Labview 2013 student edition 64 bit(free 6 months version). Thanks in advance+++
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Do you truely have the 64bit version of LabVIEw installed?
If you do, then you will not be able to use this module.
It is only valid for 32bit LabVIEW.
You can see the system requirements here:
http://www.ni.com/labview/requirements/#cds
You can try to install 32bit version of LabVIEW and then install the module.

Removing the default (View As Icon) for the control and Indicator

If you remove the default selection View As Icon for all the control and indicator, it is good for the programmer for easy to visualize the Block diagram code.

This has already been suggested - http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Default-Option-Do-NOT-Place-Front-Panel-Terminal-as-Icon/idi-p/926871
Also, note that you can already change it on your computer as mentioned there.

How to run simulations of MIMO models having direct feedthrough, using the control and simulation loop?

say i have the MIMO model of a system in transfer function as
4s + 4       0
10s+1
                                =   G(s)
0             3s + 3
               10s+1
this model has direct feedthrough. how do i run simulations of to say, a 2 step inputs?
I don't get any output signals. please, see attached VI file.
thank you.

Hi tomcruize79
Thanks for using the forums! Sorry for the delay in getting back to you - how have you been getting on with this?
One thing to note is that you can use the Signal Generator VI to generate a function as an input. Try this with your model and let me know how you get on.

Where can I find more information on Control and Simulation Software?

Where can I find out more information on Control and Simulation Software for G (GSIM)?
I am currently programming a PID controller using a Siemens PLC. I have installed LabVIEW DataLogging and Supervisory Control Module which allows LabVIEW to interface with my PLC.
Would appreciate if you could offer me some advice on whether it would be possible for the PLC PID controller to control a first order process model created using GSIM? Please email me at [email protected] if you could offer me any advice or assistance.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Best regards
Donald

I see that you posted to the DSC forum, but you did not get GSIM information. Below is the link for the user manual for the Control and Simulation Toolkit. It is the single best source for info on the toolkit.

Fpga, Control and Simulation Module

Hello,
I am trying to implement control by Control and Simulation Module through NI CRIO 9024. The error message pops up when trying the run the RT vi.
Other vis which are not coded by the Control and Simulation Module can work properly. However, when it comes to the Control and Simulation Module, the error message pops up. Is there anything wrong with the installation of the Control and Simulation Module? Please let me know if you have an idea about that. I appreciate your help.

Hi Richard629,
As seen in this Knowledgebase article, you most likely do not have the Control Design and Simulation module installed on the controller. You can use NI Measurement & Automation Explorer to install the Control Design and Simulation module on your controller.

Resetting Integrator in Control and Simulation Loop

Hello,
I am trying to run a real-time simulation in Labview 14. I have prepared front panel controls and data flow such that I can reset the simulation to some preset initialization values upon clicking a button. However, I am not able to figure out how to reset the integrator in the control and simulation loop. Even after reinitialization of all the values, the integrators will overwrite the initialization values with whatever they were holding. Please help me find a way out.
Thanks

Please share what code you have so that we can see what you've tried and understand exactly what you're trying to do.

Control Design and Simulation palette doesn't appear

I'm using LabVIEW 2009 in Professional License. I've installed Control Design and Simulation Module with its all other required Toolkits. The problem is that Control Design and Simulation palette doesn't appear in the Functions Palette in any VI. Please help me with that.

Most icons missing from control/functions palette

I've seen the following on several (at least three, AFAIR) different installations of LV8.5 or 8.5.1 on different machines. I'm surprised not to find something that inconvenient not yet reported on the discussion forums or the knowledge base.
If in Tools/Options/Control/functions palette I choose "Icons" for format, which I like best, I end up with a control palette showing only 4 buttons, namely Express, User controls, Select a control... and Vision, and a lot of blank space. Similarly, the Controls palette shows only Express, Favorites, Select a vi... and User libraries. If I use format:tree or format:text, I see the same four items as well. The tagging of "load palettes" doesn't seem to have any effect on this.
Instead, all the functions and controls I expect to see, are on the system and show up in submenus only if I choose format: category. However, and this might be the key point, the category menu is shown initially as "abridged", with a >> mark at bottom. As I right-click pop it open, only the said four items are shown, a click on the continuation mark opens up all. I couldn't find, though, any obvious Options setting related to this behavior.
I've checked this resource,
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/46E1672AB48C917D86256AFE00075436
but none of the suggestions seems to apply. I have not tried to reinstall LV, first for the time it takes, second because having seen the problem on many installations I doubt that all of them could have gone bad in the same way (while LV apparently works sanely). In particular, Tools/Advanced/Edit palettes shows again all buttons I would expect to see.
What should I do?
Thanks, Enrico

Uff, I found myself. Please ignore the request.
However, I find that it was not at all trivial. Searching the help for "abridged", I've found that:
"By default, LabVIEW installs with an abridged palette view, unless you are upgrading and were using the Advanced palette view in a previous version of LabVIEW. You can use the View button to display or hide palette categories."
(upgrading was the case on the systems in question). Following links for "Change Visible Categories Dialog Box" I learned that
"On a pinned palette, click the View button on the palette toolbar and select Change Visible Categories from the shortcut menu to display the Change Visible Categories dialog box. This dialog box lists all categories on the Controls or Functions palette"
That is, one has to pin the palette first, then press view, then etc. etc. It was not immediate to me.

Hi Sankhadip,
Sorry for the late response. I was looking at your code and
I noticed that the graph scale does not start from zero. That might be the
reason why you don't see the transient in the simulation. To change the scales
simply double click on the lower limit and set it to zero. If this is not the
expected results, can you please post the expected results, so we can see what are the
differences between the results . Also, you might be using different
solvers, and that gives different results as well.
Thanks and have a great day.

Can't install Control and Simulation Module in LABVIEW2009

HI all,
I m using LABVIEW2009 x64 and wanted to update control module in it.
when ever I try to install the Control DEsign and Simulation module, the setup won't proceed.
IT shows the following error message :
NI LabVIEW 2009 Control Design and Simulation Module
The Control Design and Simulation Module requires LabVIEW 2009 Full or Professional Development System to be installed.
however, I have already installed and reinstalled once as well. Please help me.

Hi Rishabh,
Unfortunately, we do not have a version of Control Design and Simulation for x64. You can try to install the 32-bit version of LabVIEW instead on a 64-bit OS. This should allow you to install CD&SIM.
Please let me know if can help any further.

Bin,
You should post this question to the page where you found the VI, and ask ADEEB or Al S what they used the VI for.

Synchronize Control and Simulation loops

When simulating control systems with LV Control and Simulation loops, I often have multiple loops running at different rates. For example, I have a PWM loop running at 20 kHz, a data acquisition loop running at 100 kHz, and a control loop running at 10 kHz. How can I synchronize all of these loops so that they stay on the same time base? Obviously the master time base will need to be at least as fast as the fastest simulation loop.
I've tried synchronizing all loops to the 1 kHz clock (I'm running on Windows), but each loop runs one period per clock tick (e.g. my 20 kHz loop counts up 50us per clock tick, my 100 kHz loop counts up 10us per clock tick, etc). I need all of the loops to be synchronized to one master time base so the simulation time is identical in each loop, but each loop will be executed at a different rate.
Any thoughts?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello,
A quick suggestion - why can't you run all three systems in a single simulation loop, but have different sample rates for the blocks for each system ?
Is your system entirely digital, or a mixture of continuous and digital - it may simplify things if you can convert everything to discrete time.
Hope this helps,

Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.,

Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.

Absolutely!
Install Splashtop2 on the PC and enable it to be controlled or ran from iPad or Reflection to simply allow iPad to serve as PC unwired monitor. With Splashtop and an Apple TV connected, you use the smartboard as usual, yet the PC and iPad can see the same content. The impaired child can even interact with the Smart Board via the iPad as if he were writing directly on the big screen. Erasing functions can be done by touching the Smart Board manual controls. Several variables are in play that cause this lack of functionality:
    Apple won't permit PC software that infringes its proprietary apps.
    Smart Board companies refuse to develop iPad apps because they feel threatened and are being replaced by iPads
    School districts think Apple TV is meant for copyright infringement and could expose them to safe harbor lawsuits
    Network administrators make it impossible to login Apple TVs because they don't want the streaming occurring
    Classrooms are not able to keep up with the technology of using the iPad
    Clicker companies refuse to play with iPad because they see it as a potential threat to their core business clients
    Apple is not working as hard as it could to exploit its capabilities in education, thus losing money in iPad sales
The bottom line is that we educators and technology developers are hurting our childern with petty conflicts.
