OPC server error with Lookout 5.1 that was working with Lookout 4.5

I was running a file on Lookout 4.5 with Field Point explorer 3.0 with field point objects. I recently upgraded the Lookout to 5.1 and Field Point Explorer was uninstalled. Now when I try to open my old Lookout file, I cannot control through the field point objects and I am getting the following error: OPC/OLE error. OPC server not registered properly (63). Invalid class string 800401F3.

Hello,
Thanks for contacting National Instruments. There are three known reasons that you may get this error.
1. IAK file not setup or it has been moved or is missing.
This error is easy to reproduce. In order for the OPC FieldPoint Server to work, it has to launch the FieldPointOPC2.exe which has looks at a registry key for FieldPoint Explorer. In this registry key is the path to the last saved or loaded IAK file. If this file has moved or has been deleted, then you will get this error. This also happens to customers that have upgraded their FP Explorer and haven't opened up their IAK file and saved it.
2. OPCproxy is not registered. Which means the opcproxy.dll or opccomn_ps.dll are not registered or are version 1.0 (can be registered by running "regsvr32 opcprox
y.dll" and "regsvr32 opccomn_ps.dll". The opcproxy.dll and the opccomn_ps.dll are located in the system32 folder in the WINNT directory.
3.OPCserver is not registered (can be accomplished by running the .exe with a /regserver switch) . The Fieldpoint OPC server is located in the following path: [drive letter]:\Program Files\National Instruments\FieldPoint. From a DOS prompt you can manually register the EXE by going to that directory and typing FieldPointOPC2.exe /RegServer. In a dos prompt the command line looks like this (also see attached picture):
c:\cd c:\Program Files\National Instruments\FieldPoint
c:\Program Files\National Instruments\FieldPoint\FieldPointOPC2.exe /RegServer
Hope this works. If it doesn't, then I suggest that you uninstall all NI software and try to do a fresh install. This will properly ensure that all the services and servers are registered.

  • Problem with printer on airport that was working 3 weeks ago.

    Hello
    I have an airport extreme and have connected to it an epson sp rx700. 3 weeks ago when I last used it, it was working fine. I have a macbook too which I print wirelessly through the extreme too. Yesterday I tried printing on my imac and it recognises it through airport settings but can't print. The print icon comes up and just says printing, but nothing happens. On my macbook its fine, prints normally. I've checked the driver and they are using the same drive which is version 8.37. All my mac OS updates are up to date on both computers. Does anyone know what could have happened in 3 weeks that could have caused one computer to print and the other not to? Would appreciate any help.

    Have you tried deleting the printer from Print & Fax and then re-adding it?

  • My laptop touchpad scroll is not working with firefox 4. It is wroking with other programs. When I attach a mouse then scroll works with mouse wheel. It is only not working with touchpad. It is/was working with firefox 3.6.x

    I am using windows xp service pack 3 with Lenovo T60p.

    I too have this problem, I have an Acer Aspire 7551G with an ALPS mutitouch touchpad. It works perfectly fine in every other program, and worked in Firefox 3.6. Scroll also works fine with a USB mouse. I tried downloading the 'latest' driver from the Acer support website, but when I tried to install it, it says that I am trying to install the same driver that I already have, so that fix isn't possible. I've only had the machine for 3 months, so I would imagine the drivers are pretty current.
    I can't believe that this is a driver problem anyway, as I say, it works perfectly well in every other program, so it must be something wrong with Firefox. I was looking forward to using Firefox 4, but this problem is too annoying to put up with. Oh well, back to Chrome... at least until there is a fix found or implemented.

  • Since installing firefox4.0b5 sound has stopped working with flash. Still works normally with 3.6.x and was working with 4.0b1

    Yesterday I downloaded the latest nightly build of minefield and flash stopped working. I re-installed flash, still now joy. I copied all plugins from usr/lib64/plugins to .plugins and videos then played in flash but without sound. Sound continues to work normally in Firefox3.6.x and in Opera. Distribution is Mandriva2010 Spring

    Strange, it is now working again, I can't think of anything I have changed. - I uninstalled nspluginwrapper and re-installed it, re-booted and that didn't seem to make any difference but just clicked on a video and it played fine with sound. Really annoying because I don't know what to do next time if it happens again.

  • Looking for shelf system that will work with 5th gen 8g Nano?

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a shelf stereo system with integrated iPod dock that will work with my 5th gen 8 gig Nano that I received as a gift. I've been researching this and have a found a few candidates such as the JVC UX-GN8 or UX-LP5, or the SONY CMT-BX20i. But... have been unable to confirm if they work with this new 5th generation model. Anyone have one of those units, or something similar, that works? Also, is it true that the Apple Cradle ($49.99+cable) has some problems docking the 5th generation Nano in the sense that all the features are not accessible (audio, video, etc.)? Thanks for any and all responses.

    have been unable to confirm if they work with this new 5th generation model.
    If their websites do not specifically state that their product works with the *iPod Nano 5th Generation _with video,*_ its more likely their product is not compatible. You can try calling them if possible to confirm.
    Have you checked MacMall's website?

  • IPod Nano case that will work with Bose Sounddock

    I got an iPod nano case, and it extends a little bit, and this prevents it from connecting to the Bose soundock. Is there a case that is transparent that just goes around the iPod nano without extending a few millimeters above or below it?

    I bought a 5th Gen. 80 that had problems and had to be returned. I had to wait on the release of the new ones b-cuz they didn't have anymore. I bought the 160 GB and despite the claims that everything I bought for 5th Gen. would work with the Classic except the case, I found the opposite. All my cases and armbands work with the 160 Classic that had worked with the 80 5th Gen. I have a silicone, two hardshell, an armband that were all bought for the 80 5th Gen. You actually might be better off as far as money b-cuz a lot of stores Target, Wal-mart, and even Bestbuy put all these itmes on clearance sale not realizing this and of course APPLE is not telling b-cuz their greedy butts want you to spend more $ with them (I discovered this when contrary to other claims none of my A/V cables and dock work).

  • Sharepoint list dataheet view error "Cannot connect to the server at this time. You can continue working with this list, but some data may not be available"

    I have a List which is having around 14000 items in it.while opening that list in datasheet view it is giving error .
    Below is a summary of the issue:
    After selecting datasheet view beow error occurs:
        "Cannot connect to the server at this time.  You can continue working with this list, but some data may not be available."
        "Unable to retrieve all data."
        The item counts displays say 100 out of 14000 items.
    Exporting List to excel is giving only 2000 records out of 14000 records.
    Other Observations   -  
    This is happening to only one list on the site .There are other lists in the site whose no. of records is equal to 8000 to 9000.They are working absolutely fine without any error.
    Also, If I am saving this list as a template and creating another list with it ,then it is working absolutely fine with 14000 records,so the issue does not seem to be related with no. of records as the template list is working fine.
    I have checked the Alternate access mapping setting ,its fine.
    It should not be related to lookup,datefield or any other column as the list created from it template is working fine with all these columns.
    I checked below links also ,but doesn't seem to work in my case.

    I have spent two days to resolve this issue. Microsoft has released two KBs with reference to this issue...but are not appearing in search results at the top.
    I am sharing my finding.
    1. First install the
    KB2552989 (Hopefully you might have already installed it. The KB detetcts it and informs the user.)
    2. Then update registry by adding new key for data fetch timeout as mentioned inKB2553007
    These two steps resolved the issue in our environment. Hope it might help others as well.

  • Can anyone recommend a print server that will work with Mac & PCs?

    Can anyone recommend a wireless print server that will work with Macs and PCs ?

    Wireless has a disadvantage for many Powerbooks.  Unless yours supports 802.11g, it is not secure.  So it must support Airport Extreme on the Powerbook to have a secure wireless network.   Also many printers only support 802.11b, making matters worse, as that is not secure.  See my FAQ* on printing:
    http://www.macmaps.com/printersx.html
    Some printers have ethernet ports, which would allow you to use a Wireless ethernet bridge that is 802.11g.  Similarly you could use one on the Mac, and then you'd have your wireless printing.  Ask the printer manufacturer what might be possible.  The last thing you want is an insecure network, especially if you are at most 4500 meters/1500 feet from someone who could pick it up and log into it that you don't want.

    Error message "an error occurred while signing in " when I worked with Create PDF and at the signed in status. Please help so that I can continu my work.

    Hi Stacy,
    Thank you for your attention.
    I have been working with Create PFD under normal procedures including
    sign-in and several documents had been finished. However, when continued
    creating another document the computer took a long time to pprocess and
    finally a mesage appeared: "An error occurred while signing in" and stopped
    there. I clicked the OK button and start creating again and the same
    message appeared once more. I tried to log off and log in again in no
    avail. So I went to the help site and called for help.
    Later, I decided to reboot the computer and tried once more. This time it
    worked and I continued creating. Thanks.

  • Convert an integer value that was created with the Excel DATEVALUE formula to a valid date?

    Hello everyone,
    How can I convert an integer value that was created with the Excel DATEVALUE formula to a valid date in SSIS?
    Is this even possible?
    For example:
    =DATEVALUE("8/22/2008") will format the cell to display 39682.
    Reading the column as a string to get the int value (39682) - how can I turn this into a valid date using SSIS and then importing the real date to sql server?
    Thank you!

    You can use Script component for this and convert your integer values to Date. An example here is following:
    CultureInfo provider = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;
    string dateString = "08082010";
    string format = "MMddyyyy";
    DateTime result = DateTime.ParseExact(dateString, format, provider);
