Speed of measurements using LABVIEW, HP34970A, RS-232 cable and a pentium 4 CPU 1.6GHz 512RAM

Hi all,
I´m currently doing some measurements with a type T thermocouple. Currently I get 1 value every second and I can´t figure out how to get more measurement samples per second. Is the system the problem or Should I change some settings in LABVIEW?
Regards Ruud Verschaeren

This is the file I´m working with. Trough a SISEA board i also collect some voltage signals. This is the signal I want to read in high frequency, can someone please help me?
Regards, Ruud

Frequency measurement using Labview 8 and Fieldpoint FP-CTR-502 - wind speed measure

All the information regarding this kind of application seems to be outdated, I did not find no solution or example to construct frequency measurement VIs using Labview 8
The examples at "NI Discussion Forums :
Most Active Hardware Boards :
FieldPoint Family :
Low-Frequency measurements using counter/timer" is very strange and so far the steps given seems to be usefull only do old Fieldpoint Explorer.
I was trying to find a way to learn how to make an anemometer send its signal to a FP-CTR-502 but I have no sucess.
I am realy very new on this Labview stuff, any help would be welcome.

Retrive the names of step measurements using LabVIEW

How do you retrieve the names of a multiple numeric step's measurements using LabVIEW?
I've constructed a vi to call from TestStand, and will pass it "ThisContext", but the vi doesn't complie. That's how far I got. The vi is attached. The error message is:
"The method selected in the invoke node is invalid or no method has been selected. Right-click the invoke node and select a method."
My vi is an attempt to write the code from
message.id=10653 in LabVIEW. Specifically:
Dim MyStep As [Step]
Dim MyMeasurement As PropertyObject
MyStep =
seqContext.AsPropertyObject.GetPropertyObject("Step", 0)
MyMeasurement =
MyStep.AsPropertyObject.GetPropertyObject("Result.Measurement[0]", 0)
MsgBox(MyMeasurement.Name)
Can someone help me finish the vi?
Thanks
Solved!

You missed the the AsPropertyObject in "MyMeasurement =
MyStep.AsPropertyObject.GetPropertyObject("Result.Measurement[0]", 0)". Checked out the attached.
I cleaned up your code. Make sure you're closing every reference you get from TestStand or it'll yell at you when you shut the engine down.

Strain measurements using labview and DL750 scopecorder

Hi
I want to use labview to do strain measurements using DL750 Yokogawa Scopecorder. I have installed the DL750 drivers and I can access them from labview, but I am a bit lost as to getting to communicate with the scopecorder, setting up measurements and so on. I am all new to strain measurements and to labview, is there a link or a tutorial that anyone would recommend I refer to?
Regards, tickle

Hi Tickle
It looks like the driver you are using is supported by a third party. I took a look at the driver you are using and it has a couple of examples included with it. I would recommend taking a look at these examples as they are normally a good starting point for communicating with your device. Has anyone else used this device in LabVIEW?

RTD Temperature Measurements using LabView 2013 and MyRio

Hey everyone. I am VERY new to LabView programming and working with a MyRio. I need to figure out how to measure the resistance of a 2 wire RTD to find a temperature utalizing the MyRio and LabView. I am pretty lost on how to do this. Does anyone know some good resources for making the LabView program off of the tops of their heads? I've figured out how to measure from specific pins, but I am not sure how to get it to constantly output a voltage from the output pins.
Eventually, I would like to have it display the temperature as well as have it turn on or off a heater depending on that temperature, but that will come far later in this process. First things first, how do I take temperature measurements utalizing LabView 2013 and a MyRio with a 2 Wire RTD.
Thanks so much!

Hi JoshEpstein87,
The myRIO can't acquire a change in resistance directly, so you'll need to somehow convert the change in resistance to a change in voltage. There are multiple ways to do this, but you'll need to build an external circuit and then read the voltage output with the myRIO. One example of a circuit that allows you to do this can be found here. To output a voltage on the analog output pins, you should just need to set the output voltage and then it will remain at that voltage until you change it or power cycle the myRIO.
To get started with LabVIEW and myRIO programming, see the following page:
http://www.ni.com/myrio/setup/getting-started/
There are some links to LabVIEW training as well as resources about RIO programming. I also highly recommend you check out the myRIO Community as there are example programs on there that you can take a look at to see how they are designed.

Performance comparison---using LABVIEW..between Embedded and general-purpose Intel's single VS multi-core CPU

hi guys;
kindly, can any one tell me : is it possible to use Labview installed on desktop pc to show up statistically the main performance key features between mutlicore systems and single core systems but with (two versions, embedded and general purpose CPU) . in other words: I'm trying to resemble embedded cpu with general purpose CPU so that i can only work on Desktop pc than say that the obtained results are the same for embedded multicore CPU.
to get things more clear:...embedded multicore processors are now hitting the embedded market segments such as (small and portable devices with internet, multimedia and wimax tech. enabled that take advantage of recent multicore tech.).
general-puroses Multicore processors: like desktop and servers based processors,
according to what 've read, Intel is producing same processor model but with different applications : (embedded and general-purposes applications)

Hello,
Please look at this page which shows a new feature in LabVIEW 2009, but particularly interesting is the video which shows the performance benefits on a PC platform of single core VS multicore.
LabVIEW doesn't have any ability to emulate a multi-core embedded processor (unless its an intel x86 processor that labVIEW supports!) so to discover the performance benefits of embedded multicore processors, you would need an external hardware board and devise a test in which labVIEW can measure the timing via an external pin toggled by a program running on the embedded processor that could utilise multiple cores (there may be other ways but this is the way that comes to my mind).
I hope this helps you!

Use LabVIEW FPGA as a DAQ and detect peak

Hi everyone, need your help now.
I want to use Labview to encode a FPGA to achieve following function：
1.Acquire data as a DAQ from a Photodetector
2.then use peak detect VI to measure the peak information
3. some simple mathematical operations
is it possible for me to achive all these only using one FPGA? and is it OK to connect DAQ's output and the input of the peak detect VI?
thanks a lot. I am a beginner, so it confused me a lot.

Hi
What is you hardware? cRIO? FlexRIO? And what your signal type? Anolog or digital?
You can refer to the help of Peak detect.vi to comfirm if the data (sigle point integer or integer array ) can be wired directly. I am afraid you can not wire the FPGA IO OUT directly to the Peak detect.vi, but you can create a array for the data and then use the peak detect.vi

I have some question on "Use LabVIEW to Control two DSP and RTDX"

I have some question when writing LabVIEW. I have DSP6711 and DSP6416, I use RTDX to send data to LabVIEW.
I write three programes for LabVIEW, one is RTDX for DSP6711, another is RTDX for DSP6416, and the final is RTDX for two DSPs.
The program of LabVIEW is workable when doing DSP6711 or doing DSP6416. But there is some problem when running DSP6711 and DSP6416 on LabVIEW at the same time.
How to tell the LabVIEW's tool of " RTDX read" to get the datas from different DSP

What you want to do should be fairly straightward and a good way to learn labview.
First off, if you haven't already, I would download the drivers for the Keithley and Agilent instruments. I found the keithley drivers at the link below. You will need to find the labview drivers for the Agilent PS at their website. Drivers are the VI's you will use in your program to control the insturments.

If you open Labview and go to the help menu and click on Labview bookshelf there is alot of information on getting you started coding labview. This should get you started, if you have anymore questions just ask in this same thread and I am sure you will get all the help you need.

I am looking to use Labview to capture an image and store it.

I also want to tag other data onto the image so that I can place the image in context i.e. orientation and positioning. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Pinki2k;
You may want to take a look at IMAQ, which can be used along with LabVIEW for what you want. Another alternative may be IVision from HYtek Automation.
You will get better answers if you post this question in the Vision forum.

Will signal strength or internet speed suffer when using a Generation 1 Time Capsule and wireless extending a network with a Generation 5 Airport Extreme

I have a wireless network in my home and I have a Time Capsule 1st generation and a Airport Extreme 5th Generation, will this cause my internet to be slow or have glitches with signal strength?

We've gone over this in the other thread.
If the Time Capsule will be connecting using wireless only, everything depends on the quality of the connection between the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule.
The quality of the connection will be affected by the distance that the Time Capsule is located from the AirPort Extreme and any obstructions in the signal path.
If you have a ceiling between the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule, then you should expect the signal arriving at the Time Capsule to have lost 30-40% of its bandwidth (speed). So, the Time Capsule can only repeat the weaker signal that it receives.
Other walls or other obstructions like heavy furniture, large mirrors, etc will also affect the wireless signal as well as cordless phones and other wireless networks around you.
If you are lucky enough to have line-of-sight between the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule, then the wireless connection between those devices can work quite well. Few of us have this luxury, and must settle for significant compromises in performance.
If the wireless connection between the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule does the job for you reliably, then you can leave things as is. If you are not getting the reliable performance that you need, then you will need to establish a wired Ethernet connection between the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule.
As you might imagine, there is virtually no signal loss in a wire, even up to 300+ feet or 100 meters.

How can I connect my MBA 11" 2012 to my Imac 21.5" mid 2010 as a display unit. Connected using a mini display port cable and this did not work. Any guidance welcome. Thanks. John

I bought a belkin mini display unit cable( new) and connected the thunderbolt port in the MBA ( 11" , mid 2012) to the Imac mini display unit port using this cable. Pressed the CMD & F2 keys on the Imac keyboard as required but this did not work. Should I try with another cable ? Should i try with a thunderbolt cable ( recommended by appple support ) -- but they too were not sure about this. Is the Mid 2010 21.5" Imac not able to function as an display unit? Any guidance would help and will be much appreciated.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Only the 27-inch iMac and Mid 2011 and newer iMacs can be used as an external screen, so you can't use your Mac as an external screen. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11302
You can still use your iMac as an external display, using an application like ScreenRecycler

I want to use my Ipad1 with hdmi cable and keynote.

I bought HDMI connector and keynote to use for presentations.
I was led to believe that this would work with IPad 1.
I know IPad 1 will not do screen mirroring. I just want to do presentations
Do I need to get a refund?
Thanks
