PXI 5610 problem

When running the PXI-5610 adjustment procedure in Calibration Executive , the main power suddenly shut off . then what problem will happen to the PXI 5610?

Thanks a lot for your reply.
After the PXI controller 's suddenly power off when performing adjustment , we restart the OS and found the PXI 5610's error infomation in the MAX : Error -200437,External calibration constants are invalid,and he card cannot be used in our Auto-Test-System anymore. I guess the calibration data in the EEPROM was missed or uncompleted,but i have no relevant softwre tools to read or write PXI-5610's EEPROM.
Could you give me some suggestions to solve this BIG problem? Thanks.

Error 200617 on every usage of NI PXI-5610 that was previously working

Hello,
I have been trying to use the NI PXI-5610 RF upconverter (associated with a NI PXI-5441) with VIs that were previously working, including the NI GPS toolkit and RFSG example VIs. However, with the same setups as were working previously and the examples every time I now receive the following error
niRFSG
Commit.vi<ERR>The upconverter reported the following
error:
DAQmx Error
-200617 occurred:
Measurements: Output generation was aborted by the reverse
power protection circuitry of the device. Either the output signal exceeded the
output power limit, or power was being driven back into the output of the device
by an external source. Correct the problem, then generate the signal
again.
I have tried restarting, allowing 30 minutes warmup time before trying to use the RFSG and ensuring that the chassis fans are set to high with no change in the result.
I have also tried doing a self test on the RFSG unit in MAX which fails with error 200020.

Ok, well we can take the first steps via this forum post. If we need to RMA the PXI-board we can follow up on the created service request.
First I want to start troubleshooting the Self Test error.
I have attached a application which goes through all of the tests separately so we can determine where this error is coming from. Please run all of the test provide by this application.
Thank you in advance.
With kind regards,
Casper

Calibration Executive error during PXI-5610 sequence.

When running the PXI-5610 procedure in Calibration Executive, I get the prompt "NI-FGEN Create Arbitrary Waveform - Cannot write Real data when Data Processing Mode is Complex. Disable OSP or set Data Processing Mode to Real." The procedure the errors out with the same message when I click 'Continue'. I am using the NI PXI-5441 AWG (in place of the NI PXI-5421), but it is a selectable source during the initial configuration of the sequence.
Am I missing something? Am I doing something wrong? Is there a hiccup in the Calibration Executive software when PXI-5441 is selected?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi DaRock,
We do not recommend making any changes to any of the test code for calibration as these may cause problems in your test sequence. We are still currently looking into the issue, however, in the meantime, if you would like to try and experiment some changes in the test code, please make sure to backup any original versions of the files you edit so you can load them back in they cause any problems.
Just for your information, in a standard NI-FGEN application, you can manually disable OSP by accessing the OSP Enabled property from the NI-Fgen property node under Arbitrary Waveform Output»Onboard Signal Processing.

PXI 5610 Error -200437

The card shows the error infomation:Error -200437,External calibration constants are invalid. Whether performing an external calibration would solve the problem?
Thanks.

Fail to calibrate PXI-5610

Sory if this isn't the correct Board to post this question but I couldn't find a Calibration Executive Board
I'm trying to calibrate a PXI-5610 with the Calibration Executive 3.4.1 and I have the latest drivers instaled on my pc, the probem is that the calibration doesn't start and it gives this error:
"Open VI Reference in cex_Instr_RFSigGen_Init.vi->_NI 5610_RFSigGen Setup.vi->_NI 5610_RFSigGen Setup.vi.ProxyCaller
VI Path: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Calibration Executive\InstrumentDrivers\LabVIEW\RFSigGen\rssma\cex_Instr_LabVIEW_RFSigGen_rssma_Init.vi
LabVIEW: The VI is not executable. Most likely the VI is broken or one of its subVIs cannot be located. Open the VI in LabVIEW using File>>Open and verify that it is runnable."
What can I do to fix this?
ps: I had to perform the calibration with Calibration Executive 3.2.1 because the client had some urgency...
Can anybody help
Thank's in advance
Bruno Ranhel

Hi BRanhel,
Please take a look at this knowledge base. This is for Calibration Executive 3.3.1 but it could work for the 3.4.1

Using Calibration Executive for PXI-5610 using PXI-5124

Hi guys,
We've been trying to calibrate PXI-5610 but the Calibration Executive software pop up an error of PXI-5122 requirement but we don't have the module, we have the PXI-5124 instead. We have tried to use the unsupport but it's not working too.
We have found that their resolutions are different
PXI 5124 http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/14231
PXI 5122 http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/12615
Is this the cause of error? Is it possible to use PXI-5124 instead of PXI-5122?
FYI about our system
Chassis PXI-1010
Software: Calibration Executive 3.3
For any further recommendations, please let us know, thanks in advance.

Hi, somebody here?
I'm not sure if we have specified forum for this issue, please help let me know.
Thanks...

NI PXI 5610 procedure in Cal Executive

I am currently working with the calibration executive software version 3.3 to calibrate some PXI-5610 cards. For the AmplitudeAccuracy_Super10MHz it has me manually input two measurements. In turn it appears to perform a calculation to determine the As found dB reading on the calibration report. However, I cannot seem to understand why two measurements are made and why the calculations appear inconsistent. For the same test at frequencies from 20MHz to 2.7GHz with a power level of -50dBm I input similar numbers for both values on all frequencies but received vastly different values.
Here is a specific example:
1005MHz @ -50dBm 256average 1st value: -50.54dBm 2nd value: -65.17 As found reading on report: -.5837
1500MHz @ -50dBm 256average 1st value: -50.67dBm 2nd value: -65.12 As found reading on report: -.8231
Does anyone know what the calculations are for this procedure and why/what I might be doing incorrectly to make my measurements inconsistent?

Hi Jerimiah,
I am taking a look into your question and I wanted to clarify a few things. What hardware are you using to make the measurements? Is it the recommended hardware or an unsupported model? Could you provide a screenshot of a couple rows of the AmplitudeAccuracy_Super10MHz section of the calibration report if you have it? It would also be helpful to have a screenshot of the prompts to enter the two measurements. I am not sure of the calculation that is made based on your inputs, however I suspect the difference may be related to the passband flatness. Let me know what other information you can provide and I will continue looking into an answer.

PXI-5610 Specification

Hi,
Does anyone have NI PXI-5610 Up-Converter Specification? The link on NI web http://sine.ni.com/nips/nisearchservlet?nistype=psrelcon&sortby=localesort&nid=13478&lang=US&filter=... seems to point to PXI-567X specification.
Thanks.

Luyy,
Thanks for contacting National Instruments. This is correct, the 5610 is part of the 567X RFSG unit. Those specifications are the correct ones for that device. There are 5610 specific data in that pdf. Is there something in particular you are looking for?

PXI-5610 RF Frequency Response adjustment

Hello,
I have noticed that adjustment for 5610 in RF frequency response is taking long time (about 2-3hr) with Cal exec 3.5, and I have tried to get the PXI chassis in a good enviroment and with some extra fans around since the adjustment has the legend "RF Freq. Response accumulated Meas. (Normalized to 45°C)
I am wondering if the enviroment has some important point here or it needs some update in a particular application inside Cal Executive 3.5?
I also have this question, Win7 has some advantage over WinXP in this particular or general adjustment?.
Br,
Omar

Hello Omar_Rdz,
Thanks for using NI forums! Calibration Executive usually takes a considerable amount of time for some of the PXI modules. By reviewing the Cal Exec manual it says that for the 5610 module it could take up to 240 mins (around 4 hrs). But definitely the temperature is a factor that can affect the performance not only of the calibration procedure but the whole system. Have you tried to execute the calibration when the controller and the chassis are cold? Also try to avoid dust accumulation in both the modules and the chassis because these can impact on the general performance of the system.
Answering your question regarding the OS, Win7 has a better performance compared to WinXP but it will also depend on what type of controller you are using. In order to give you a better answer, could you please tell me what controller and chassis are you using?

PXI 6220 - problems with the counter

Hello all,
I try to make a buffered counting with counter0 of my PXI card 6220, to count the speed of a motor through a photocell and a sticker over the pulley of the motor.
I have wired my photocell at PFI8 (source) and I generate a pulse train that I have wired in PFI9.
The input to the counter is a pulse train 5V high level - 0V low level.
The problem is that the counter counts sometimes more than 1 pulse for every turn of the motor. However, apparently the pulse train looks ok.
I don´t know what´s the problem.
The rising slope of the pulses looks very nice so, I think I could discard it.
I can suppose that in between pulses there are some glitches at a very high frequency that I cannot see (I have sampled this signal only at 800kHz and at this frequency there are no glitches), but maybe the counter yes, because it works at 20MHz.
Somebody has experienced this problem. Sometimes ago, using a PCI6221, I solved a similar problem by activating the digital filtering, but it seems it is not possible to activate for this cards. Could somebody confirm it?
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance!!

Pete;
I agree that is a little strange.We don't have such problem reported on our Data Bases.
A workaround you can try is to make a sinle pulse goes to the source, before start the buffered acquisition, and see if that makes the counter keeps reporting a 1 value.
You can also try the same thing on another counter of the board to see if that problem is related to the counter you are using.

Nokia 5610 Problem

I have 2 major problems with my Nokia 5610, if anyone can help me
The first problem I have is that whenever I charge my phone it gets really really hot, like it could burn your hand, has something happened to it?
The second problem I have is that I have just swapped my memory card,and since this my phone wont read it or any other memory card. It hasnt done this since I found it over heating. Could there be a connection between the two? And how much would it cost to repair it?
Thanks in advance!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It is normal that the phone (and also the charger) heat during charging. If you think it is too hot, you should have it checked by a Nokia service point.
The issue with your memory card could be several things, is the card suitable for your phone? Specs show that the 5610 is compatible up to 4Gb. If there is a genuine peoblem with your phone, it is possible that damage has been caused - so you would again have to have the phone checked under warranty.

Nokia 5610 - Problem with the screen

My 5610 is 3 months old. I've dropped it sometimes but 2 days ago when I dropped it restarted and since then my screen doesn't work. the backlight works and any other operation is fine(I can still listen to music). The warranty ends next year. Can nokia care fix this problem and will it cost me money? Any help is welcomed.

What's a replacement unit? (Sorry, but I'm a bit unfamiliar with the terminology )
Some shops or service centers are considering units for replacement when the phone is far from being fixed.
Replacement unit = give you a new one, then return the faulty one. In some rare occasion, they wouldn't mind taking the faulty one so they'll likely say to keep it(good for spares or flinging it on ebay).
O2 is a generous one in terms of this. As they do consider replacements even the phone was used for several months (as long the phone is still within it's warranty).
There is nothing wrong to try, why not ask for it?

5610 problems (3G, Email ETC)

Right well basically I've had my 5610 since november and at first I didnt ever have a 3G signal so took it to an o2 shop and the dude sorted me out with a 3G simcard lol so I searched o2 setting for it on here and well basically they dont work.. It says it supports:
- Web
- Mulitmedia Messaging
- Instant messaging and my presence
- x-midlet-Yahoo incl. Yahoo! Go
- Access point.
Right so.. when I try to load up my browser it comes up with "Suscribe to Packet Data First" if someone sends me a multimedia message it says "Unable to recieve multimedia message please check config. settings" so I've gotten around it so far by swapping settings about as I have an O2 WAP GPRS settings and a O2 MMS setting so when I use the web I switch to WAP GPRS settings and when I'm not I use the other but this is annoying and gets tideous.
Basically I want to know how to suscribe to packet data so I can have both MMS and GPRS at the same time... Also how do I set up my email (I've read the guides and no help there )
Lastly how to set up "Opera Mini" as when I try to set it up using "Network Setup" in the options menu it says "Failed to Connect to the internet"... How do I set it up?
Any help will be muchly appricated.
Thanks

OK PEOPLE I HAVE A SOLUTION! After spending many hours today with Verizon, local apple repair (to verify that my 3g antenna was working) and finally Apple we have a solution that is not based on Voodoo. I finally was able to speak to Erik, one of the Chief Troubleshooters at Apple who figured it out.
1. Have to have a back-up
2. Disconnect iPad from computer. On iPad erase all content and settings: Settings>General>Reset>erase all content and settings
3. Reconnect to computer when iPad restarts
4. Restore from good back-up
5. Voila - Problem fixed!!
I had literally tried everything else on this whole list to no avail. Many thanks to Erik and I hope this helps all of you!

PXI-4472 Problem: Several channels always oscillating between +/- 10 V

Hello,
Hoping that someone has seen a similar problem. This just recently came up. Observable when running LabView VI's as well as in MAX test panels.
Any ideas on the cause? Any ideas on the fix?
Would appreciate your help,
Hunter

Hello, Shea
To answer your questions:
Yes, we see this on top as well as when no signals are connected.
We are looking at voltages from eddy current prox probes in the 0 to -5 V range, using DC coupling.
Yes, as I stated earlier, this oscillation are seen both in LabView and in MAX.
This board is mounted in a PXI-1002 chassis. The chassis incorporates a MXI-3 board and three 4472 boards.
This problem board is located in the master slot beside the MXI-3. The other two 4472 boards seem to be operating fine.
Look forward to hearing your thoughts ASAP.
Thanks,
Hunter

PXI-4462 problem...

Hi All!
I have PXI-1036 DC with 8101RT+6653+6682+4462.
It seems thereis a problem with PXI-4462 driver:
I format disk and install fresh system software (step by step). When I install DAQmx 9.7 with DSA, after reboot I see message after "Welcome to LabVIEW Real-Time 12.0f4" :
ing the driver might fix the issue. Ohterwise, contact National Instruments technical support."
PXI-4462 appears in MAX with some duplicated device (Dup.jpg). When I call Test Panel, I see error (see TestPanel_Error). After "Yes" and press "Start" I see error as on TestPanel_Opened.jpg.
What's happened?
Jury

Hi Jury,
Have you tried to Reset the device in MAX? I assume you've already tried rebooting the system, right? What about moving the device to a different PXI slot? Or even a different PXI system, if available?
If none of those steps work, try deleting the device from the Windows Device Manager, and allow the operating system to redetect it and install a fresh version of device drivers.
See this article, for reference. If none of these steps yield any change in behavior, it may be necessary to send the hardware in for repair.
