There is some tool in labview to control a FireWire camera without any hardware?

I have a Thorlabs FireWire camera and I want it to control with LabView. I have the complete version of the LabView 8.2 proffesional edition. Well I don't want to buy more hardware so I need a tool included in the LabView proffesional system.
Thank you for your support

Hi Lamas,
The Vision Acquisition Software is not included in the LabVIEW packages. If you are looking to acquire, save and display images using IEEE 1394 cameras (Firewire), you will need the NI Vision Acquisition Software and if you need image processing functions and display tools, I recommend having a look at NI Vision Development Module.

Is there some tools that can analys the informations creating by RDA?

When we create informations using Oracle Remote Diagnostic Agent,how can we analyse it and get some advices,the only way is send it to the Oracle supporter?I mean if there are some tools?

RDA is Oracle support tool. I don't think you can use the output file for other purpose, at least not legally.

Help Using Labview to control Kikusui power supply with a PIA4850 controller

HI I need some help using Labview to control 4 Kikusui power supplies. We have a PIA4850 Kikusui power supply controller. I can use the visa test panel and see the PIA4850 but can see any of the power supplies. I have very limited use of Labview and only wrote a couple programs using GPIB. The PIA4850 is a USB controller and can control up to 32 PS. I can get it to work with a Excel demo software that came with the controllers so I know that it is working. Any help will be appreciated. I am using LabView 8.2 and have updated to the Ni-DAQ 9.0. I have a program that I need to incorporate the PIA4850 into once I figure out how to operate it. Thanks in advance.

HI and thanks for the help. I did get one power supply to work but have another problem. I need to control 4 power supplies at the same time and can only operate the one that is addressed N5!C1. If I set the other to N6!C1 and so on I get an error stating
“Error -1074135008 occurred at ki4800_2 Configure Voltage Level.vi Possible reason(s):IVI Error in the method "get_Item" in the component "Kikusui4800". E_IVI_UNKNOWN_CHANNEL_NAME: Unknown channel name (N6!C1)”
I am assuming that I should be able to change the node number and that will change the supply that I need to use. Everything works great if I use N5!C1 I can change any of the supplies to address 5 and can control it with no problem. I can even have multiple supplies with the same address N5!C1 (don’t think I should do that) and change them all at once. I need independent control of each supply.
I am in a pinch here and need to figure it out but could use some help. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Photoshop CS3, using pen tool to make selection or path without any color

OK, here is my problem. I'm using CS3 photoshop right now. Last time I was using it regularly was in 2001, so it was version 5 or 6. At that time you could use the pen tool to make a selection or a path without ANY color. I'm trying to cut out something that needs precision (therefore the pen tool) but I need to be able to see what I'm doing. Therefore, would prefer no color option. This used to be easy, with paths, it was the default.
Can't figure it out now, HELP is no help. And, the User Guide is no longer available on Adobe.com. Looked for the one for the CS4 suite, not much much luck there either. I can call them tomorrow about that. *Right now, all I'm trying to do is put together a little pasted together thing for my niece. Two stuffed animals with antlers and santa hats on a Xmas background. Everything is done but cutting out around the stuffed animals. They need their little tufts of stuffing, so I need a tool that can create a smooth path without blocking what I'm doing with color.* Any help will me appreciated. I've tried for days to figure this out on my own, since last time I posted, I figured it out before someone responded. And, the response was quick, so I didn't want to waste anyone's time.
The pdf user guide for this is unavailable, I just ordered a book to help me with the stuff I can't figure out by myself. Thanks for everyone's quick help. –Suze

Suze,
I too use CS3 and I may be confused about your post. If so, I apologize for wasting any reader's time.
When I need a precision tool for rotoscoping a subject, I usually choose the Polygonal Lasso tool. Of all the Lasso tools, using the polygonal is the most labor intensive, but gives you the highest degree of control. With a little practice you can get quite good at it. If necessary, blow up the image to help you see what you are doing.
-- Duplicate the background layer
-- Rotoscope the subject
-- Click Refine Edge and adjust Radius, Contrast, Contract/Expand, Smooth and Feather to taste
-- Choose New>Layer via Copy or Cut
-- Hide background layer(s) and Save As or Move this layer onto your original graphic.
There may be other ways of doing it but this is what works for me. I hope that helps.

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.
http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/niid_web_display.download_page?p_id_guid=E3B19B3E90B0659CE034080020E74861
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.

How to control UAD2 programmer from PLS-Develpment Tools Using Labview?

Hi ALL,
I'm trying to programe "STR712FR2T6" using Universal Access Device from PLS.
this programmer support ActiveX control as PLS-support told me. I had tried many times to control this programmer but i could not i have littile experience using Active X control but this time it looks deffirent.
Does any one have controled this speciefic device with labview? Please Support me?
Does any one have any idea helps to control this device? Please help?
Thanks and regards.

Do you have a manual for the ActiveX control?
It seems your problem lies in your current lack of understanding of the ActiveX control in LV.
This link provides a lot of information regarding the use of ActiveX controls in LV, follow the document links for more info.
Try to explain in more detail which part of the ActiveX control interfacing you don't get to work.
Kind regards,
André

André
Using whatever version of LV the customer requires. (LV5.1-LV2012) (www.carya.nl)

How can I use LabView to control Altera Scripting

Hi
I have kind of run into a stone wall. I am building a production test executive based on LabView. Part of this process includes loading an FPGA image on to a CFI flash that is in the JTAG chain. I am trying to make so that the production operators don't have to open a second application, select the right FPGA and Flash navigate to the file then load it, then go back to LabView and run the rest of the tests.
Altera has a command line interface that will let me load .cdf file. The problem is that nowhere in Altera’s documentation does it show me how to first load the “Parallel Flash Loader IP” into the FPGA. The flash loader acts as a temporary bridge between the JTAG input and the CFI Flash. I have looked on Altera’s Forums and have had an open ticket with Altera’s support engineers for more than a week.
I can’t be the first person to want to do this; I am hoping someone here has done it before. I would really rather not try to use the activeX controls to manipulate the windows based program.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated (Note I am not trying to put LV code on the FPGA/Flash just use LV to control the process)
Thanks in advance
Below is the error message and the script I am using. It almost works just missing the flash loader IP

Hi Eric,
I got it figured out today, basically you have to load the Parallel Flash Loader first into FPGA ram. It is a special .sof file (pfl_epXXXX.sof) based on your FPGA. Code is actually pretty straight forward, using the Sys Exec VI. Use the windows based programmer to generate the .cdf file that identifies your FPGA, attached Flash and .pof file .
Syntax was odd going into Sys Exec. Note the extra "C" in in front of the "quartus_prm.exe" I have no idea why that was needed, but I was getting an error until I just happened to put it in there (Blind Luck :-))
I used a 2 element array going into a four loop
cmd /cquartus_pgm.exe -c USB-BLASTER -m JTAG -o P;pfl_epXXXX.sof
cmd /cquartus_pgm.exe -c USB-BLASTER -m JTAG S_FPGA.cdf
Defining the working director C:\altera\12.1sp1\qprogrammer\bin
And added match string with "Successfully performed operation" on the output in the loop to make sure everything loaded correctly then adding the array to give me a overall P/F
To anyone doing this same thing Altera's documentation is poor to say the least. It took most of a week to figure this out Not allowed to upload code, so anyone wanting details just post here and I will try to help. This was painful, with lots of lessons learned.
Thanks for the interest though
Best regards John

Labview style controls in VB

I'm developing an application in visual basic and I want to utilise some
fancier graphing controls as the MSChart control is not going to be
sufficient for my needs. I've had a look at a few National Instruments
packages, Measurement Studio and the now obsolete ComponentWorks but they
contain a lot of stuff that I don't need (eg. C++ classes) also the $2900
price tag has scared me off a bit. All I want is a graphing activex control
for VB6 that will handle real-time 2D plotting and has features such as
cursors, etc. built in. Does anyone have any suggestions on a good control
out there. I have Labview6i, is there a way to utilise its controls in VB6?
Thanks
Nick

I don't think you can use any of LabVIEW's controls directly in VB but you can call LabVIEW app's from VB
via ActiveX:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/3efedde4322fef19862567740067f3cc/862567530005f09e86256843004469c8?OpenDocument
In LabVIEW, you could make a small simple VI that has just a chart on the front panel. Compile the VI into an EXE and enable ActiveX server. Then, in VB, you can call the LV ActiveX server and pass it data to plot on the chart.

HT4914 My music is stored on an external hard drive. All music that I buy, whether from itunes or some other provider, automatically gets loaded onto my external drive. There is some music on my computer drive as well. Will match work in this circumstance

My music is stored on an external hard drive. All music that I buy, whether from itunes or some other provider, automatically gets loaded onto my external drive. There is some music on my computer drive as well. Will match work in this circumstance?

I followed all the instructions for consolidating my music into one folder on my external hard drive. (I'm struggling with this because my ext HD was renamed when I synched my iPod shuffle last night. The "E:" drive has now become the "F:" drive and all my songs have those dreaded exclamation points next to them. Exploring my computer, I found "My music" folders in two place on my C: drive and one place on my external hard drive... and the song list in each place is different.
Argh.
So... following the directions in the article reference here, I attempted to consolidate all of my songs into one folder on my external hard drive.
But.. I checked the song list when the "consolidation" was complete... and MANY songs are missing. They're still on the C: drive, but don't appear to have been copied to the new folder on the ext HD.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks so much!
Edit: I tried to reassign the ext. HD a permanent letter, but my Control panel does not appear to offer the option of Administrative tools. Is there an easy way to get to this, as this seems to be the root of the problem?
Thanks.

Is there a substitute tool path for "Image Adjustments Variations-" in Photoshop CS6 Standard Addition?

Is there a substitute tool path for "Image>Adjustments>Variations…" in Photoshop CS6 Standard Addition that brings similar results? I was used to using Image>Adjustments>Variations… in Photoshop CS4 Standard Standard Addition quite often. I upgraded to Photoshop CS6 Standard Addition to get the 64bit memory architecture compatibility on my Macbook Pro, booted in Mountain Lion. I see now that Photoshop CS6 Standard Addition has the "Image>Adjustments>Variations…" tool path removed.
I don't have Photoshop CS6 Extended, which has the all new Image>Adjustments>Variations… tool path. I only have Photoshop CS6 Standard Addition so, if anyone can share with me a substitute tool set that can give me similar results to using the old "Image>Adjustments>Variations…," I would appreciate it.

Thanks, R_Kelly.
You helped me to start exploring other tools in the Image>Adjustments Menu. "Image>Adjustments>Color Balance…" seemed to help me get the results that "Image>Adjustments>Variations…" used to deliver. "Image>Adjustments>Photo Filter>Warming Filter (85)" also got me to where I wanted to be in desired adjustments. I used to get the results I wanted in brightness, contrast, mid-tone adjustment, and color balance buy using just Curves, Variations, and Hue/Saturation. Now I'll use "Color Balance…" and "Photo Filter>Warming Filter (85)" along with Curves, and Hue/Saturation. I also have learned to use "Levels" some more to get the same effect as Adjustments>Variations…" I always thought there were more technically precise adjustment tools to get the same effect as "Image>Adjustments>Variations…" Adobe dropping Variations in Photoshop CS6 Mac version forced me to learn better image adjustment approaches for pre press color correction and image warming. I feel confident now to make Photoshop CS6 my prime-time work tool and move the Photoshop CS4 launch icon off of my Mac OS app Dock. Thanks again, R_Kelly.

I want to do a project in Labview which controls 5 light bulbs which lights in a room.

I want to do a project in Labview which controls 5 light bulbs which lights in a room. The switching on of light bulbs depend on amount of sunlight falling on a LDR. Small intensity of sunlight should cause the lighting of one bulb after the other. I need some help in writing my program in Labview.

LDR is a resistor whose resistance decreases with increasing incident light intensity... I know, you are already aware of what LDR is...!!
--> Well what exactly you want a LabVIEW program to do in this setup of yours...??
--> If you want LabVIEW to take control and lit different bulbs, based on the light intensity, I would like to know, how exactly you planned to measure the resistance variation of LDR??
--> What DAQ are you using??
--> Are you aware that DAQ cards can measure the voltage across a shunt resistance (here LDR) and indirectly tell you the variation in the resistant, provided a constant current passing through the resistance.
I am not allergic to Kudos, in fact I love Kudos.

I have a jpg file that I must use as a background in a Dreamweaver project. There is some text embed

I have a jpg file that I must use as a background in a Dreamweaver project. There is some text embedded in it that I can't edit. I have tried using Illustrator and Photoshop but I lack experience so I'm probably missing something. I'd be glad of some help as this is all that is preventing me from marking it as complete. The file address is lecaff.fr/images/home_banner.jpg Thank you in anticipation.

Use Photoshop and the Stamp tool (S) to get rid of the lettering.
Do little areas at a time, constantly changing the sampling point if you want a half decent job.
Also, don’t use a .jpg format for files with lettering.
If you must have lettering use .psd, .tif, .png or some other non-lossy format.

How can I with LabVIEW programatically control the RS-422 port?

I would like to talk to my hardware through the RS-422 protocal, how would I do this in LabVIEW?
Thanks alot for ANY help.
Brian

Most likely the communication would be identical to what you do for RS-232, only you would use the port number associated with your serial hardware. Thus you can use VISA starting with the serial examples in LabVIEW.
There are a few extra things like the transceiver control on NI-Serial RS-485 hardware that have special VISA calls, but those are easy to add.

Is it possible to move some tools or their setting parameter from Configuration interface to Inspection Interface?

Hi
We use Vision Builder for machine vision. There are two interfaces in Vision Builder (Inspection Interface & Configuration interface). It is better machine vision operator would work with Inspection Interface and he should not access to all of setting and tools but he need to redefine some parameter like RIO in some tools like measuring tools for different products.
Is it possible to move some tools or their setting parameter from Configuration interface to Inspection Interface?
Or is it possible to define security like password to some tools and their setting but not all of them?
Thanks
Refa

Vision Builder generally isn't supposed to rely on user input, but there is a step called "User Input" that allows you to get input from the user. ROI would be tricky. I think the slickest way to do that would be to create a VI that displays the image, lets the user drag a rectangle, then pass those coordinates back to Vision Builder to configure the ROI.

Any suggestion is highly appreciated
Thanks in advance

... and there is a perfectly good forum for that product,
just waiting for you to bother to look for it.
