Problems with PCMCIA-GPIB card

Hi all
I am using a PCMCIA-GPIB with driver version 2.2 on a Windows XP with a PCI-to-PCMCIA Adapter from Ricoh (device manager says: Ricoh R/RL/RT/RC/5C475II,R5C520 or compatible cardbus controller).
The Win XP detects the card without any problems and there are no resource conflicts.
However, I cannot communicate with GPIB devices and the NI-488.2 Troubleshooting Wizard says:
1. NI-488.2 Software Presence = verified
2. GPIB Hardware Presence =
And then a new screen: "The trouble shooting wizard has detect that no GPIB interfaces are configured on your system"
Can someone help me? There are no resource conflicts and I have also tried changing the PCI slot. The same problem also occurred when I installed the card in an
other computer.
Regards,
Juan"

I have tested a RICOH PCMCIA to PCI Adapter card. The PCMCIA to PCI Adapter card was tested using different operating systems (Win2000,XP,98,95) and using a Micron computer PIII 650 processor. When testing under the XP environment, with service pack 1, NI's device drivers Version 1.7 failed to load. (Code 10) Ni's driver version 1.7 was then removed and NI's device driver Version 2.2 was loaded. I did not experience any commutation problem as long as I used the standard NI calls. I did experience a problem with NI’s IBDIAG function call which is not supported under Version 2.2.
I would recommend that you get the latest service pack for XP and NI’s device driver Version 2.2.

  • I have problems with pci-gpib card under windows me, What I need to know what to do in order to fix this problems?

    Hi, I have installed a pci-gpib card in my computer, I have a problem with
    installation, the message of troubleshooting wizard is as follow:
    "One or more missing GPIB interfaces.
    There are several reasons why you might encounter this problem:
    Reason: Your GPIB interface is incorrectly installed.
    Solution: Please verify that your GPIB interface is correctly installed
    and rerun the NI-488.2 Troubleshooting Wizard.
    Reason: You are using a non-Plug-and-Play interface (e.g., AT-GPIB/TNT,
    GPIB-PCII/IIA, GPIB-ENET) and you did not use the Add New Hardware Wizard
    to add the interface to your system properly.
    Solution: Click th
    e Add Hardware button and the Add GPIB Hardware wizard
    will guide you through the process of adding GPIB hardware.
    Reason: For the GPIB-USB and GPIB-1394, the host controller (USB or 1394)
    must be working properly in order to use the GPIB interface.
    Solution: Click on the System Details button for details about the USB and
    1394 host controllers.
    Reason: For the PCMCIA-GPIB and PCMCIA-GPIB+, the PCMCIA host controller
    must be working properly in order to use the GPIB interface.
    Solution: Use the Windows Device Manager to verify that your PCMCIA host
    controller is functioning correctly. Start the control panel by selecting
    "Start>>Settings>>Control Panel", open the System icon and select the
    Device Manager page. If you select "View devices by type", you can look at
    the PCMCIA socket properties to ensure it is correctly enabled."
    And on system details the message is the next:
    "USB Driver type: USB universal host controller"
    "This version of windows does not su
    pport IEEE 1394."
    I am using Windows Me, so i want to know what i need to do to fix this
    problems.
    Best regards.

    If you have a PCI-GPIB card, you needn't worry about the USB port or whether or not Windows ME supports 1394. All you need in NI-488.2 version 1.70 from National Instruments. Install this driver and then insert your card. Windows should detect the card and find the proper driver.
    If this did not happen in the proper sequence, look in the device manager and see if the card was installed as an "other device". If this happens, remove the card in the device manager and have windows redetect it. If this is not a solution, you may consider the ask an engineer page at www.ni.com/ask. Provide as many details as possible.

  • Problems with pci--gpib-300k from computerboards

    hallo,
    i have problems with my gpib-card, win95 and 2000 identify this card
    corectly but labview not, the max 2.0 find not cards.......have everyone the
    self card and can help????
    (sorry for my bad english..)
    bye & thanks...
    Thomas

    Thomas,
    The short answer is the MAX will not recognize non-NI devices. NI-MAX was designed to recognize and interface with National Instruments' boards such as our PCI-GPIB, AT-GPIB/TNT, etc. With the introduction of MAX2.0 and NI-VISA2.5, there was an added capability to recognize some Hewlett-Packard boards but even then, configuration of them must be done from an HP interface.
    LabVIEW will interface with the board fine but MAX is designed specifically to interface with our drivers for our boards.

  • PCMCIA-GPIB Card with Linux ?

    We would like to run LabVIEW + PCMCIA GPIB Card Ni-488.2 on a laptop under Linux. I know LabView provides a linux version, but we would need an appropriate driver for the PCMCIA-card. I found hints on a PCI-GPIB driver, but not for the PCMCIA version. Is there something available? We are currently running SuSE 7.0 on the laptop, but it would be no problem to switch to RH 7.1.

    It is surprising to see that after all these years of expertise from NI, there is currently no way to have GPIB running on a Linux laptop.
    NI provides no drivers for the two possible laptop solutions: USB or PCMCIA.
    Given the widespread use of Linux in research labs, such a lack of support is rather disappointing. I can't imaging that writing such a driver would be more work than a computer science student project.
    At least the basic communication/read/write functionalities with no polling and handshakes
    Sincerely,

  • GPIB communication with GPIB (NI PCMCIA-GPIB)card in Visual Basic

    I have a old program in Visual Basic which works fine in windows 98 using the desktop, but using my laptop with windows 2000 on it and NI PCMCIA-GPIB card it fails to communicate and running the program does not recognize the sendIFC command. I am new to VB, so can someone tell me what am I missing here. thanks

    Hello,
    Is the PCMCIA card recognized by the NI-488.2 driver on your laptop? Are you able to communicate from Measurement and Automation with your instrument? What do you mean it does not recognize the sendIFC command? Does Visual Basic give you a runtime or a compile time error? Are you using the latest version of the driver? (Usually 2.1 unless you're on 95 or NT with your card)
    You can try out the Visual Basic language examples in the 488.2 directory under Languages as these will let you know whether or not the driver is installed correctly.
    Let me know if you need more assistance by replying here.

  • Kernel panic with PCMCIA wireless cards.

    UDEV throws a kernel panic when I insert either of two wireless PCMCIA wireless cards.
    UDEV version 106 and the latest kernel 2.6.20.  Both wireless cards worked just fine previously
    so I'm sure it's a problem caused by upgrading. 
    Has anyone else experienced this problem with PCMCIA cards?
    -A

    Seems about rite but my system works foro some time and then at some random point freezes... guess it could be the same issue tho.
    So its out of arch dev hands and needs a kernel update? Am i right to assume that next time kernel updates its the right time to try 20 series again?
    Yeah im drunk, tried to check for typing tho ^^

  • Max Not Detecting PCMCIA GPIB Card

    I'm having trouble getting NI MAX to detect that I have a PCMCIA GPIB Card in the computer.  The C-Drive under hardware manager knows it's in the slot and says it's working fine.  I tried to uninstall the GPIB Card so I could reinstall it but it won't let me. 
    I also tried adding hardware to MAX and selecting the PCMCIA card but it says that it can't be added.
    I'm using the latest versions of GPIB, VISA, and MAX software that I can on a Windows 2000 computer. 
    Thanks

    Hello,
    When you say MAX is having trouble detecting the card, what exactly is happening? Do you see the card in MAX, but then you can't communicate with it? Does it show up with an error, or does it not show up at all? Could you give me the exact error message that you see. Are you using this on a laptop, or are you using a PCI-PCMCIA converter on a desktop? Does this happen on multiple computers? And just to verify, what version of NI-488.2 are you using? Hit <F5> in MAX to refresh the window and see if it shows up then. You could also try reinstalling the NI-488.2 driver, to see if it helps. Please let me know the answers to the questions above, and we can go from there to try to get this issue resolved. Thanks!

  • How do I get driver software for PCMCIA-GPIB card?

    I have purchased a used card that has Windows/DOS software. How do I get driver software for Windows ME or Windows 2000?

    That would depend on what you bought. Check with the manufacturer and see if they have the drivers you need.
    We have some PCMCIA GPIB cards here from a manufacturer that does not support that card anymore. The only GPIB commands that I could get to work in LabVIEW were the old direct GPIB commands and even then, we had to rebuild a laptop with windoze 95.

  • NI PCMCIA-GPIB card and PowerBook G3?

    I need to set up a GPIB test system, and my options for a controller are
    an old 386 machine with DOS(!), or a Powerbook G3.
    Does anyone here have experience using NI's PC-Card GPIB interface in a
    Powerbook G3? The Labview docs say it's supported, I just wonder if it is
    fully supported. Thanks in advance for your help.
    I jusk _knew_ I shouldn't have given that old HP-85 to charity...

    Greg,
    Have you used the PCMCIA/GPIB card with any other Mac programming
    language? FutureBasic claims to support the NI drivers on NI's PCI and
    NuBus cards.
    Thanks,

  • "There is a problem with the SIM card in your iPhone"

    I'm getting this error when I try to activate my new iPhone 4 through iTunes:
    "*There is a problem with the SIM card in your iPhone.*
    To activate your iPhone with this account, you will need a new, unactivated SIM card. Please use the SIM card that was provided with your new iPhone. If you are using the new SIM card, and are unable to complete activation, you can go to an Apple Retail Store or an AT&T company owned retail store to request an unactivated SIM. If you would prefer to have a replacement SIM card sent to you via overnight mail, please call us at 1-800-MY-APPLE. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused."
    Now I've already been to AT&T and nothing they could do with the account settings would work, in fact they had never seen the issue before. They gave me a new SIM card and that did nothing as well. Finally they tried out a different SIM tray, and that still didn't work. I have a Genius Bar appointment at the Apple Store tomorrow, but I was wondering if anyone else has this problem. Do you think that the SIM reader inside the iPhone 4 is broken?

    I solved a problem I had with activating my iPhone although the error message was different from yours.
    I got the message "There is something wrong with your iPhone and it cannot be activated, please bring it to your nearest Apple service".
    Via a Chinese forum I found out its the SIM card witch is the problem. If the serial number of the SIM has a "letter" in it it won't work. If only numbers it will work.
    I now tried it with 2 SIM cards with letters and got the message over and over again. Than tried with my only numbers SIM card and it activated instantly.

  • Differences between NI PCMCIA GPIB cards

    I have a PCMCIA-GPIB+ card , part # 182826B-01
    Q1 - Is this a 16-bit interface?
    Q2 - Are the newer PCMCIA NI cards 32 bit?
    Since some of the expresscard adapters only support 32bit PCMCIA cards, these are important questions.
    Thanks

    For all those wishing to use their 16 bit pcmcia gpib card in Express card slots, I have verified that the following vendor's card works beautifully without any new drivers.
    Please search for  ExpressCard 34 to PCMCIA PC CardBus 16/32-bit Read-Writer Express2PCC.

  • Problem with discrete graphic card and DirectX 11

    If I try any application to launch with discrete graphic card (nvidia geforce 740m) that using directx 11 it always crashes.
    There no problems with directx 9 on on this graphic card.
    There are no problems with integrated graphic card whether application using directx 9 or 11. Problem occurs only with discrete graphic card and directx 11.
    The things that i did:
    - Reinstall Windows
    - Install latest driver updates (I also tried to uninstall latest and install recomended driver downloaded from the oficial HP support 'driver download' web page)
    - different options on nvidia control panel 3d settings page
    I also tried microsoft 'Direct3D Tutorial Win32 Sample' source code to build and debug. It is failed in function IDXGISwapChain:resent with code DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED and ID3D10Device::GetDeviceRemovedReason returns DXGI_ERROR_DRIVER INTERNAL_ERROR.
    Is there any chance that is not hardware malfunction?

    @Enegue ,
    Hello and thank you for posting on the HP support forum.  In your situation I would consider keeping with Directx 9.  The reason I say this is your notebook is not a performance gaming machine.  It is designed to be fore general use.
    Some cards will notice issues when upgrading to direct 11 from a lower level.  
    Not to mention with your notebook you will want to stick with the drivers only provided from the HP support site.  They are proprietary for the notebook and could be the reason why the directx 11 is not working.
    Here is the link to your systems supported drivers.

    Thank you again for posting and have a great day.
    Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!

  • Strange problems with nvidia video card

    Hi, I don't know if it's really a problem, but I suppose...
    I had in the last days serious problems with the nvidia card and ubuntu (see ubuntuforums or askubuntu).
    Resuming I couldn't boot ubuntu if the nvidia card was enabled...
    Now I only use windows because of this problem but I have another doubt: why the power manager sometimes don't show me the GPU usage (see image)?
    In any case the nvidia (I think) is always working (the external monitor plugged in  the DisplayPort works... I think that's a confirmation)
    Another question: at times when I watch video on youtube the nvidia is enabled at others not... is this a problem of optimus or not?
    For me it's important that windows works (no problem if ubuntu doesn't works.. I posted the links of the problems with ubuntu just  for information on what's happened before this problem with windows..

    I'm using Firefox with html 5...
    But I also tried also with chrome, in which the html 5 mode in youtube is not activate, and I have the same problem...
    I find it strange because if i have the monitor plugged in the nvidia GPU is activated (of course) and if i'm whatching a video on youtube when i disconnect the monitor the GPU won't switch to the intel but it still remains the nvidia activated until i close this video..
