Serial break on com port does not work

hello everybody:
i have the following problem:
i am writing a command via the '"visa write" vi on the com port of my pc. in some cases the com port does not retun anything. that means that my "visa read" vi would timeout. the problem is that afterwards i need to send more commands but have to break the line in order to be able to do so. I have inserted the "visa break" vi but didn't get the reaction i expected. the line does not break. i tried to increase the break length but that does not work either.
Any ideas?
Using LabVIEW 2013
Solved!
Go to Solution.

A break will not break the connection, it will just put a 1 to the Tx line for a periode longer than 11baud length (?) or specified time.
A hardware check that the break is send: connect a scope or a DMM to the TX and GND , a 500ms break should be clearly visible even on a 'slow' DMM. (a 10k resistor and two LED antiparrallel or a handy RS232 minitester would do the same job )

USB ports does not work

Hi I have problems with not working USB ports. It used to work. I downloaded actual drivers at msi.com for my gaming notebook GX 60 Destroyer and now my USB ports does not work. What should I do?

What driver have you updated?
Try to do an EC firmware reset by removing the battery and the AC adapter then put the battery back with AC adapter attached.
Same questions like Pegasus asked, does all ports not working? which one exactly? What OS are you using?
Have you done any changes to the system? (for example: self-install OS or changing OS)

Serial number provided with download does not work, now what?

Firewire port - does not work

Firewire 800 port does not work on my iMac, mid 2010 version.
If i plug in an external disk with external power it does not work. Sometimes the disk are recognized, but then it says its half the size it really is.
On small disks without external power it works.
I have tried 6 different LaCie disks with firewire 800 - all works on my macbook pro.
I have tried 2 differne western disks with firewire 800 - all works on my macbook pro.
All disks works as they should with USB.
Is it possible to reset the Firewire port?
If so, please send me a LINK. This support pages are **** to find correct answers…

While you can't reset the FW port on it's own you can do a number of different resets including SMC & PRAM resets, you can also restart in Safe Mode which will clear some caches. It's possible one has become corrupt. Try these first and sff i you have any luck. Make sure ALL peripherals except the keyboard and mouse are unplugged when doing the resets. Also it is not a bad idea to do each reset 2-3x to ensure it's worked.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Back USB port does not work

I noticed that one USB port(All other ports appear to be working)in the back of my Mac Pro does not work.
Aside from taking my Mac Pro in for a repair, is there any other way to fix this problem?

You can always try resetting PRAM and NVRAM…

… and/or the System Management Controller…

… otherwise no. You will need to take it in for repair and most likely a logic board replacement.

One USB port does not work with external Disk or USB key

Hello,
Back to my iMAC there is 3 USB port. The second one - in the middle - does not work pluging an external Disk, an USB key or an iPOD nano. However it works well connecting a Wacom tablet.
Is there an explanation to this behaviour ?
More the keyboard is plugded on USB port 1 and the mouse on the keyboard. Time to time - especially at reboot - I have to unplugged the mouse and plugged again it in order it works.
In advance thank you for your answers
Regards

Since it does not work for three different devices, I will assume it is not something simple like a faulty USB cable. Since it does work for one device, I will also assume that the port is (at least partially) working.
As a test to narrow down the cause, I would try restarting from your Mac OS X installation disc (insert disc and restart with the C key held down).
At the first Installer screen (after language selection), go up the menu bar. Under Utilities, select to run Disk Utility. Now, connect the USB drive into that center port. Does it appear in the Disk Utility sidebar?
Please post back the result...

USB Port does not work W510

Hello all,
I am writing to you hoping that one of you may have an idea what's wrong with my beloved w510.
A few hours ago the usb port (on the back on the right side) where I plugged in my external mouse stopped working.
In the Lenovo part list it is referred to as "usb Sub card yellow".
It just does not recognize a mouse nor any usb stick or external drive. I have already reinstalled the usb controller
but it didn't make any difference. (I think the driver is only for the usb 3 hub on the left side of the notebook)
when I plug in the external drive the lights of the drive start "flashing" same for the usb stick, but they are not recognized as drives..Same for the mouse. The lights go on, but nothing else works.
Probably its all my fault, but I don't know what else I can try! Please excuse my bad English...!
Hoping that somebody might be able to help me...
Paul

I have a reproducible test for this issue on my W510.
1) Plug in a usb mouse into the rear usb port and ensure the mouse is working.
2) Hybernate the system.
3) Resume the system.
4) Confirmed the mouse does not work.
5) Disconnect and attach the mouse to one of the left usb ports and confirm the mouse works.
6) Disconnect and attach to the rear usb port and confirm the mouse does NOT work.
7) Restart the system and confirm the mouse still does NOT work.
8) Shut down the computer (a full shutdown, not standby or hybernate).
9) Power the system back on.
10) Confirm the mouse is now working in the rear port.
I can do these steps over and over with the same results regardless of whether the AC adapter is plugged in or not. It appears that the data connection does not work after the system is resumed from a sleeping state. I have the latest UltraNav driver and utility and the latest power management updates.
Oh, and one more test. Hybernate the system with nothing plugged in, then plug in a mouse into the rear usb port when the system is presently hybernated and then power the system back on. The mouse will not work and rebooting doesn't correct it. Only a full shutdown fixes it.

Calling test sequence from CVI DLL that use ATL COM object does not work

I am trying to call some DLL function writen in CVI from teststand. The CVI DLL is using ATL COM object(Written by me).
The ATL COM object making instance of several ATL COM object inside it (including two controls that contains dialog). If I use a client writen in VC++ 6 and use the ATL COM (writen by me) works perfectly. But if I try to use it from CVI DLL it does not work any more.
What is wrong? The client is passing an IUnknow interface to my component. Can anybody explain me what is wrong?

It is not clear from your question as to what is specifically failing. If possible, one option would be to remove TestStand from the picture and see if the problem still occurs using a CVI EXE that invokes the CVI DLL.

My System Preferences>Soundoutput screen does not have the "Use audio port for" field.
Does your MBP have two separate audio ports - one for line-in and one output port? Then you wan't see that selector.
but the port has started to work again....Reason???
Perhaps there was dirt or something in the jack and the contact was bad.
(or you accidentally put the plug into the line-in jack instead into the audio-out; that happened to me once ).

E3200 - USB port does NOT work for more than one device

We needed a new router that had the dual band connectivity as our previous router stopped working properly when we started using a baby monitor operating on the same 2.4 GHz. The choice was between E3200 and E2500. We chose the E3200 mainly because it also offered a USB port. We were hoping to use that to connect our printer and two external drives (thus bypassing our old desktop that's been working as a server). However, it turns out that the USB port on E3200 does NOT support USB hubs! So, you can ONLY use ONE device - either a printer or one external storage drive. That wasn't really clear at all from the description. I feel like we wasted the extra $50 hoping to get functionality that just isn't there. Can't believe that in this day and age, Cisco thinks we all have only ONE USB device we might want to connect to the network! The router itself is fast enough, but the extra $50 for a USB port that doesn't do much and some speedboost phantom ability is just not worth it.

Just to save time to you all, after numerous attempts to install a USB hub to my E3200,
I wrote to Cisco Customer Service (live chat) and I specifically requested how to set up the usb hub or the virtual USB port and they said that they do not have a software to install a USB hub.
Hope this help

Mini-DVI port does not work in windows 7

I am currently running boot camp 3.2 on windows 7 professional. When I attempt to use my display port it does not register in windows 7, however when i switch back to snow leopard it works perfectly fine. What can I do to fix this?

I have a MacMini that is a intel core solo and has the DVI port not the mini-DVI.
I was able to load win7 but only after connecting the MacMini to an LCD monitor via DVI-to-VGA converter that came with my mac mini.
I am running snow leopard on the mac side and the video works great in 1080p via DVI cable direct to my DLP tv. but when I loaded win7 the tv couldn't display the video feed. The tv read "not compatible data". The DLP tv has a VGA input and win7 is running fine on it.
I am looking for a way to enable the video card to give the same quality on the win7 side as the OS X side, so that I can go back to the DVI cable and the 1080p I was getting in snow leopard.
