Serial port doesn't work in installed application

I have a simple vi that reads serial data coming from a device, using the VISA Configure Serial Port vi. The development vi and the executable (.exe) versions work fine on my laptop, but when I install it on another computer, the serial port sees no data and there is no error message. All com port settings are the same between the Configure vi and both computers. I built a stand-alone application then built an installer, then installed it in the second computer and ran the setup.exe. The vi opens and works in every respect except for the serial port. What am I doing wrong?

Is the COM port you have selected correct? Are the error clusters in your application all connected so an error will be reported if it occurs?

  • I updated to 10.4.7 and now my left USB port doesn't work

    Hi all,
    I ran Software Update just a second ago, installing an update to MacOS (PowerPC), ITunes, and QuickTime. After the install and the restart, my left USB port is no longer working. It was working immediately before the install.
    I have verified that the peripheral that was not working in the left port works just fine in the right one. I have also confirmed that a peripheral that was working previously in the right USB port doesn't work when attached to the left one.
    Therefor, I am led to believe that the problem lies in the left USB port. The only thing that has changed is the updater which ran moments ago, and again, the left USB port was working just fine prior to the install.
    Has anybody else experienced this problem and knows of a fix/patch/anything I can do?

    Welcome to the Apple discussions.
    I would reset your power management unit, then install the combo 10.4.7 update. Recently, there have been issues with updates through the software update function.
    Reset the PMU: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449

  • I pull fiftyfour bytes of data from MicroProcessor's EEPROM using serial port. It works fine. I then send a request for 512 bytes and my "read" goes into loop condition, no bytes are delivered and system is lost

    I pull fiftyfour bytes of data from MicroProcessor's EEPROM using serial port. It works fine. I then send a request for 512 bytes and my "read" goes into loop condition, no bytes are delivered and system is lost

    Hello,
    You mention that you send a string to the microprocessor that tells it how many bytes to send. Instead of requesting 512 bytes, try reading 10 times and only requesting about 50 bytes at a time.
    If that doesn�t help, try directly communicating with your microprocessor through HyperTerminal. If you are not on a Windows system, please let me know. Also, if you are using an NI serial board instead of your computer�s serial port, let me know.
    In Windows XP, go to Start, Programs, Accessories, Communications, and select HyperTerminal.
    Enter a name for the connection and click OK.
    In the next pop-up dialog, choose the COM port you are using to communicate with your device and click OK.
    In the final pop
    -up dialog, set the communication settings for communicating with your device.
    Type the same commands you sent through LabVIEW and observe if you can receive the first 54 bytes you mention. Also observe if data is returned from your 512 byte request or if HyperTerminal just waits.
    If you do not receive the 512 byte request through HyperTerminal, your microprocessor is unable to communicate with your computer at a low level. LabVIEW uses the same Windows DLLs as HyperTerminal for serial communication. Double check the instrument user manual for any additional information that may be necessary to communicate.
    Please let me know the results from the above test in HyperTerminal. We can then proceed from there.

  • My iPhoto doesn't work after installing lion?

    My Iphoto doesn't work after installing lion.
    it suggest that I have to instal iphoto again.
    where can I find this

    If it suggests that you install iPhoto again, install iPhoto again. In your Macs Box that it came in there should be 2 Discs, one is an Applications CD (You need this one) And another is the Mac OS X.
    Insert your Applications CD and hold C while the computer is starting up, then you will be walked through the installation of Applications.

  • Audio out port doesn't work well

    Hi, I have a Macbook Pro 13-inch, Early 2011. Since I bought it I always use my Mac whit headphones, but since a month it only works well the left headphone. I think that the problem it was my headphones but no, because I used it on my phone and workes well. So i come to the conclusion that the audio out port doesn't work well. What you think? And what you recommend to me to fix this problem?

    Probably still under warranty, but not for long. Take it to the Apple Store or AASP to have it checked ASAP.

    when updated to 9.1.7 from 9. I need new serial and the old serial number doesn't work. How can i solve this?

    There was no new serial needed to update from Logic 9 to 9.1.7
    If your Logic 9 was an upgrade from Logic 8 it may be asking you for your original Logic 8 Full serial first and then your Logic 9 Upgrade serial...
    Otherwise, it's best to call Apple directly and get them to help you...

  • I'm having trouble communicating with a transducer (Keyence LS-3100 laser scan micrometer) via the serial port. It works in Hyperterminal. Any suggestions?

    Its not a simple baud-rate or parity error. If I issue the command to send data (X1) in hyperterminal I start to get data. If I then switch to Labview I still get data. However if I try to issue the send-data command via Labview I get nothing (i.e. I can read from the device, but not write to it).
    I am on a Windows 98 (version 2) PC, running Labview 5.1.1

    Try adding a carraige return to the end of your command.

  • CS6 serial doesn't work to install Acrobat X Pro.

    I've created a deployment of Acrobat X Pro with the Adobe Customization Wizard X.  This is because AAMEE doesn't support Acrobat.  Adobe support tells me I need to use my CS6 serial but no matter what I try my CS6 key won't work.  A dedicated, standalone key for Acrobat X Pro works, but not my CS6 key.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Adobe phone support was no help.  Thanks!

    Hi
    A CS6 serial number will NOT work with the Acrobat Customization Wizard. You were misinformed by Adobe support (If you can PM me a case number, I can ensure that this training need gets addressed with the agent/team in question). Only Acrobat serial numbers will be accepted by the Customization Wizard.
    The usual way to use a CS6 serial number in conjunction with an Acrobat deployment is to package your CS6 suite using AAMEE 3.0, deploy Acrobat (as so-called Execeptions payload) using the commands documented in the AAMEE deployment guide, followed by a deployment of the Suite package.
    This process is documented in the Enterprise Deployment Guide (linked here from the forums, and available at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite/enterprisedeployment.html).
    Kind regards

  • T420 USB Ports do not work after installing XP

    Hello my office has  been using Lenovo's for some time now but we recently purchased a T420 and installed Windows XP SP3 on it.  The issue we are having is that the uSB ports do not work.  I have tried every driver I can find but still no luck, can anyone help?

    hey chris0277,
    could you check in Device Manager and see if there is any ? or ! symbol on the USB area.
    If there is, i do recommend uninstalling the drivers from it and then visit http://support.lenovo.com and update your unit

  • Installer doesn't work for any application

    The installer app itself is not working on my mac (Macbook Pro, running Version 10.8.5), and it doesn't work regardless of the software that I'm trying to install.
    I get the following error message:
    Installer cannot be opened because of a problem.
    Check with the developer to make sure Installer works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X.

  • CS5.5 serial number doesn't work

    4 months ago I installed in my PC the CS5.5
    by dialing the serial number of the product I purchased
    in the boxes of the splash screen of a trial version.
    All the programs of the CS have been installed as purchased products
    except for Fireworks (but I didn't find it out until now).
    Now I need to use it and I am trying to install it from the trial version
    (which I downloaded few months ago but had never launched)
    by dialing the CS5.5 serial number I purchased but it doesn’t work.
    I dialog says that my serial number is not valid for the product I am trying to install.
    What is wrong with the license I purchased?
