Picture indicator problem in LabVIEW 8.5

I'm reading a BMP image (size 3216x2136). Trying to display it to a picture indicator ends up displaying a white (empty?) picture. If I crop the image small enough (i.e., 3216x1500), it will display to a picture indicator okay. However, if I try to convert the cropped 2nd picture indicator using "Picture to Pixmap", I end up with an image that contains only the background color. If I reduce the cropping to even smaller (3216x1000), the Picture to Pixmap works fine. Memory problems? Or a problem in the picture indicator? See attached VI and test image.

Weird -- I'm not seeing the problem anymore. Did 2 things:
1 - Changed the entry in my boot.ini file to remove the /3G flag (which supposedly increases the amount of memory LabVIEW can use?)
The LabVIEW Help actually explains the /3G flag. A copy of the page can be found here:

Note that this only applies to 8.5 and above.

I have several issues that I hope you can help me out with. I am a professional photographer with a Mac with OS X 10.9.4:
- I can only make ONE contact sheet in CS6 (from AUTOMATE) from pictures indicated in Bridge. If I want to make another contact sheet I need to shut down and restart CS6.
- Camera RAW: if I change any setting in Camera RAW (except exposure), having first optimized the exposure, the exposure will automatically return to zero. Sometimes when I've set exposure and cropped the picture in Camera RAW Plug-In, the effects are lost just by opening the picture in CS6.
- Sometimes if I crop a picture in Camera RAW, it may be impossible to open it again from Bridge!
- I cannot do lens corrections in Camera RAW, at all. The Camera RAW comment is that "it cannot load the correct lens type". Why?

Are you writing that when you select a large number of images in the bridge like a hundred thumbnails when you then use Bridge menu Tools>Photoshop>Contact Sheet II that Photoshop only produces a single contact sheet for the first few thumbnails and fails to produce additional contact sheets for the other selected thumbnails? Photoshop contact sheet II script should create as many contact sheet as needed for the numbers of thumbnails selected. Perhaps the script is hung or you have exhausted your machine resources.
ACR Crop tool does not crop the RAW file it records crop settings to be used during the conversion process. Camera RAW DATA is not altered. The only changes made to RAW Files is ACR Metadata may be added. Anything you do in ACR can be un-done in ACR. If you can not open a RAW File in ACR the Files is either corrupt or from a new camera ACR does not support yet. ACR should not corrupt RAW files.
If you do not have a lens profile for ACR I think you should still be able to do lens correction manually in ACR.
Some of what you write I don't follow could you post some screen captures of your problems often a picture helps.

How do I load a print screen image into a picture indicator?

Hi,
I am trying to load a printscreen image into a picture indicator without first saving it. I am currently doing it by acquiring and saving a print screen image, then reloading and displaying the bitmap file. This works, but it is not elegant and the colors are displayed wrong. (The SnapView.vi is from the G Toolbox for LabVIEW) Thanks for your help.

Hello –
When you push the print screen button in your keyboard, the image is send (temporarily stored) to the clipboard.
You could call the Windows API to recover that image and send it to an indicator in the front panel. This Example Program can show you how to make Windows API calls; I think you might find it useful to get started in programming your application.
Hope this helps.

How to create a picture indicator from an array of 32-bit integers

My problem is simple. I have an array of signed 32-bit integers that represents image information. I want to display that information in a picture indicator on the front panel of my VI, but none of the picture indicators accept the array. What conversions or picture control do I need to use?
thanks!

Try Draw Unflattened Pixmap.vi.

Run-time engine problem in Labview 2009 and Labview 2010

I have a problem with Labview 2009 and Labview 2010. I updated my Labview 2009 into 2010. But it turned out to be a trial one, because i did not have the serial number. So I uninstalled the Labview 2010. however, the funny stuff came over. I cannot use my Labview 2009. So i uninstalled Labview 2009 again. But eventually, I could not reinstall Labview 2009. Every time i had a runtime error and i could not proceed with the installation. in addition, any installation related to Labview is not permitted and the same error came up every time. it is very annoying.
So, What is the deal?
I attached the error here. Any comments or advice are welcomed and appreciated.

By chance is this machine's language set to any non-English locale? You would check the locale setting by:
Opening Control Panel.
Opening "Regional and Language Options".
Looking Under "Regional Options" >> "Standards and Formats"
If it is set to something besides English, trying setting it to English and please report back what locale it was set to (or if this even solves the problem).

The serial number has nothing to do with this.

Problems Installing LabVIEW

Problems Installing LabVIEW Run-Time Engine for Ubuntu 11.04
I'm relatively new to Ubuntu and its community, but have been pleasantly surprised with how easy troubleshooting has been. Unfortunately, I've spent the last two days trying to install the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine, but keep coming up short.
I've tried a number methods from the following threads to no avail:
The problem I'm having now is that despite having the ia32-libs, here is what comes up:
Input: "sudo alien - k --scripts labview-2009-rte-9.0.1-1.i386.rpm"
Response: "labview-2009-rte-9.0.1-1.i386.rpm is for architecture i386; the package cannot be built on this system".
Alien is required because Ubuntu isn't compatible with the .rpm format.
Your help would be immensely appreciated since we use LabVIEW programs to display, manipulate and simulate our spectra.

I work in the power conversion industry and do these types of measurements all the time…
Do you want to just measure power quality or create and measure power quality problems?
What hardware are you using?
Power quality analyzer?
Programmable AC power source?
Fast Transient Generator?
Here is an example of what I do.
To create PQ problems I use a California Instruments AC source set to nominal power for the unit under test. Using Labview I program several transients consisting of fixed and random duration dropouts and surges. I also use a Schaffer Fast Transient Burst Generator to apply high frequency noise bursts directly onto power lines.
For measuring power quality I use a Voltech PM3000A power analyzer and Labview to measure everything from voltage, current, and frequency, to harmonics and %THD

Problems with LabVIEW 7.1 and lock-in amplifier Stanford SR530?

Does has anybody had problems with LabVIEW 7.1 and the instrument driver for the lock-in amplifier Stanford SR530?
With LabVIEW 6 there are no problems at all, but with LabVIEW 7.1 it is impossible to communicate with the instrument.

Here is the code and snippet. I had it from before. It reads Channel 1 and Channel 2 from the SR530, that is whatever the display is for Channel 1 & 2. You set the display manually or programmatically, I let you figure that part out.

Strange math-problem with LabVIEW 7.1

Hello!
I am using LabVIEW 7.1 and I came to this strange math-problem. Could it be that it is a problem of LabVIEW 7.1?
Ok try this with LabVIEW 7.1:
open a new VI
place a subtract-VI (pallet numerical) on the block diagram and try to subtract 0.2 from 1.6
place a less-VI (pallet compare) on the block diagram and wire a numerical constant 1.4 to input x
wire the result of the subtraction to input y of the comparison
place an LED to the output of the comparison
and start this.
What does it say?
The LED should turn on and this means here that 1.4 would be less than 1.4 .
But I would have expected that 1.4 is not less than 1.4 .
This works also if you add or subtract upto 0.2 to/from the values 1.4 and 1.6 (or equivalent with 0.2) .
If you change the inputs of the comparison then the result is as expected and 1.4 is reported not to be less than 1.4 .
If you compare two constants with the same value 1.4 you will not get the same strange result.
Does anybody have an explanation for this?
Espelkamper

Hello,
For floating point math: Rounding to multiples of 0.1 is problematic as
those numbers are infinite fractions in base2 representation...
So maybe you should change your numbers to integers using fixed point math. If all your input values are in the range of 1.4 to 1.8 you can multiply by 10000 and round to next integer. Then do your comparison on that integer (there's also an 'InRange' function in the comparison palette).

Picture messaging problems for EnV 3

In the past few days, I have been having picture messaging problems. When a Non-Verizon person sends me a picture, it says connecting (as it should) but just continues to say connecting. I never receive the picture. It just says failed if I let it continue to connect. When I receive a picture message from a Verizon person, it also says connecting and I allow it to go until it stops. It never shows a loading bar like it used to but the "connecting" screen will eventually disappear and I can view the picture. It works but, its very slow and it doesn't show the loading bar like it used to.
I also have problems sending picture messages. Again, the connecting screen comes up when sending a picture but no loading bar. I usually let it go for 30 seconds and I'll end up cancelling it. BUT, a friend of mine did end up receiving the picture even though it never said message sent on my phone.
Any help with these problems? I haven't done anything different than I used to and I have had the phone for almost a year and a half now. Everything has been fine until now.

Yay!! It's so nice when it's a simple fix!
You can do the *228 reset every month or so just for maintenance and to keep your phone updated.

Will there be problems installing LabVIEW 7.1 if I upgrade to Windows XP?

We have a program in LabVIEW 7.1 running on Windows 2000. We plan to upgrade all of our computers to Windows XP. Will there be any problems installing LabVIEW 7.1 onto Windows XP?

Hi,
No, you won't experience any problems with that upgrade. LabVIEW 7.1 is fully compatible on Windows XP, just as it is on Windows 2000.

Problems calling LabVIEW VI through ActiveX inside another LabVIEW VI

Hi everybody,
basically I would like to create an ActiveX to be inserted in a LabVIEW VI which at its turn would call another LabVIEW VI.
I have choosen Visual Basic to create this ActiveX, being the main section code:
Dim lv As LabVIEW.Application
Dim vi As LabVIEW.VirtualInstrument
Dim names(0 To 1) As String, values(0 To 1) As Variant
'Assign an object reference to VI
Set lv = New LabVIEW.Application
'Assign an object reference to VI
Set vi = lv.GetVIReference(lv.ApplicationDirectory & "\Examples\General\Strings.llb\Parse Arithmetic Expression.vi")
vi.ShowFPOnCall = False 'Open front panel if requested
'Initialize the variables & define the strings corresponding to the VI connector labels.
names(0) = "Arithmetic Expression": values(0) = "1+1"
names(1) = "Result"
'Call the VI
vi.Call names, values
So, when this ActiveX executes this code sequence it locks when creating the "LabVIEW. Application" object. I have tested this ActiveX from another client application (Internet Explorer) and it works perfectly, so the problem is located in the creation of ActiveX from LabVIEW. Do I need to do anything special in my code or simple it cannot be done what I want to do?
Thanks !!!

Exactly, but really the code of above it's only an example that I want to do. I'm trying something more sophisticated.
I want to create an ActiveX control that could work as stand alone executation with the ability of directly get some indicator values from its LabVIEW VI container and depending of those values, set the control values of others LABVIEW VIs. I really know that within LabVIEW itself I can get/set those indicators/controls, but with this method I think that the diagram block of the LabVIEW VI container can be more simple.

Picture Indicator slows down front panel

Hello folks,
I would like to use the picture functions vi's to draw alot of dots on a bitmap.
Problem is, that after a certain amount of dots (>10k) the vi starts to slow down if I show the indicator of the picture.
However when I use a picture to pixmap and then redraw the picture from the pixmap the front panel indicator doesn't slow down the vi at all.
I would be very grateful for a more elegant solution to this problem other than redrawing the picture from a pixmap.
Best regards,
Mark

Mark,
When the image has more datapoints than the image has pixels or when the new image overlaps part of the old image, things can slow down.
But I suspect that the real problem is the re-allocation of memory as the picture string grows. Open the Draw Point.vi and Set Pen State.vi block diagrams and you will see that each of them does a Concatenate String operation. Strings are stored in memory as a 4-byte length and an array of characters. Like any other array, the string elements must be in contiguous memory locations. So, as the string grows, frequent memory re-allocations must occur. This can slow things dramatically. The way those picture VIs are built there is no way to effectively pre-allocate the memory.
I do not know how effective it might be, but you could rewrite those VIs to use arrays of U8, Initialize Array, and Replace Array Subset, followed by Byte Array to String. Then only one memory allocation wold be required.
