Using Agilent 82357a with Labview

Is it possible to use Agilent 82357a USB-GPIB interface board with Labview
Linux version 7 ?

Hi
I just installed Labview 7.1 for linux on my machine after throwing away (not literally !) the Agilent card and borrowing an NI PCI-GPIB card. This works with kernels 2.4.x (tested with /usr/local/vxipnp/linux/NIvisa/NIvisaic). However, for proper operation of my machine (have bad display and mouse problems with the old kernel)  I need kernels 2.6.x. The driver in /usr/local/nigpib complains that it cannot work with those. I tried hacking the INSTALL script but it keeps running up against differences (like the modversions.h file) between the two kernel series.
Can I use a newer version of the gpib libraries for linux with an older version of Labview like I am using ? I guess I will also need to get newer versions of the visa drivers for that. Though, the labview installation went smoothly with kernel 2.4.27-3 on my Debian system, I know that the newer versions of nigpib (is that the same as ni48825L.iso ?) and NIVISA are not supported on Debian. I cannot reinstall with a different distro, so please do not suggest that.
Any other suggestions ?
Thanks.

    I have never used HyperFile, but a quick check of the company's website indicated that there are ODBC drivers available for it so it should be a simple matter connecting through ADO.

  • Pilot Agilent 33120A with Labview

    Hello,
    I have to pilot a multimeter Agilent 33120 A with Labview and my problem is that I downloaded drivers here :http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.download_page?p_id_guid=E3B19B3E9066659CE034080020E748...
    I tried to test one of the example given with drivers but it doesn't work, does anybody has an idea of the problem?
    Do you think it could be about the interface because i'm using a RS 232 wire and I didn't see this type of interface in the suggested interfaces on the website i gave by the link.
    Thanks

  • Using a driver with labview

    I want to create a GUI using labview to control a data acquisition card using a driver that was not created in labview. Could someone point me in the direction of some documentation that would give me some info on doing this.
    Thanks

    If you're using a non NI data acquisition card and the manufacturer doesn't have a LabVIEW driver, then you'll probably be using either a DLL or ActiveX interface that they provide. For interfacing to third praty DLLs, start with "Using External code in LabVIEW" that is part of the LabVIEW Bookshelf. You will need details from the manufacturer on the function calls. There are some shipping examples on ActiveX. The Invoke Node and Property Node functions on the Communication>ActiveX palette are used to access methods and properties.
    If you were to mention the make and model of the board you're using, you might find someone here with knowledge of it that would provide more details.

  • Using AT-A2150 with Labview 5.1

    Hi,
    I'm trying to find a way of using my old AT-A2150 board with labview 5.1.
    I followed some posting tips from NI knowledgeBase (1JACI8U3 and 1JO8TB2O
    ) and installed NI-DAQ 4.9.
    The only problem is that now I'm getting broken arrows on my DAQ VIs. My

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Reading data from mlx90129 rfid tag chip by using spi communication with labview?

    Hi,
     i have evb90129 evalution board in that mlx90129 chip and external memory (cat25128) and three external sensors are there, i am logging data from chip by using rfid reader it ok i am reading. at the same time i configured spi communication and  i am trying to read data i am reading data from internal memory not from external memory i tried but i didnt suceed , now can i use labview to read data from mlx chip and external memory. for spi communication i am using sparkfunction atmega168 microcontroller and also i have spi to usb cable? now can i communicate or i required any devies? is it possible?
    thanks in advance,
    biji.

    I suspect the culprit to be the first parameter to your function actually. Calling another function requires the caller to allocate any buffer with a big enough size for the function to write something into. Allocate that array by using Initialize Array with U8 as type and the correct number as size. Pass this size also as read_length. While your code doesn't make use of this I think the third parameter to your function is either wrong or unnecessary.
    As you use it now it is really nothing more than a local stack variable which you could declare inside the fucntion just as well. On the other hand what you probably want to do is have a function prototype like:
    extern "C" _declspec(dllexport) unsigned char read_Sensor(unsigned *char read_data, unsigned long read_length, unsigned long *byte_transfered);
    But you will have to do some modifications in your C code to support that parameter correctly.
    That all said, doing the same in LabVIEW using VISA functions would have been done with about two VISA nodes, no DLL headaches and probably already long ago working.

  • Using Stellaris LM3S9B95 with Labview

    Can I program LM3S9B95 with Labview?

    If it's supported you would use the Embedded Module for ARM Microcontrollers. You can take a look at the documentation to see which ARM microcontrollers are supported.

  • Use Kappa Camera with LabVIEW

    Hi everybody, has anyone controled a digital camera (Kappa DX 2N) with LabVIEW?
    There is a development kit avaylable with control functions written in C. I know it is possible to convert c-Funcions in LabVIEW VIs. But there are so many functions to be converted. If anyone has experiences with that kind of camera (probably converted the functions) and knows which functions are needed for single specifications I would be very happy.
    Best regards jotthape

    Jotthape,
    unfortunately there is no information about this camera in our various support resources so NI can't be of much help here. Just one suggestion: Post this question to the Machine Vision forum instead of the LabVIEW forum. This forum is monitored by some very good machine vision experts so your chances to get an answer will increase.
    You should also provide more information about the camera (link to a datasheet, PC interface type,...).

  • Using PCI-6251 with Labview 6.1

    I recently purchased a PCI-6251 multifucntion DAQ board to get a higher sampling rate than my old PCI-MIO-16E-4 board.  However I have existing software that I want to run on the new board.  The board came with NI-DAQmx which will only work with Labview 7 or above.  I am currently running NI-DAQ 6.9.3 and the Measurement and Automation program does not recognize the new PCI-6251 board.  Is there anyway to get Labview 6.1/NI-DAQ 6.9.3 to recognize and configure the new board?  Or will I be forced to upgrade my Labview?

    The M-series boards (PCI-62xx are M-series) require NI-DAQmx driver. The NI-DAQmx driver requires a newer Labview. No way around it.

  • Is it possible to use the agilent e3633a with labview 6.1?

    Hi
    at first, please excuse me.
    my english is bad
    if you can see in the header, i try to controll the e3633a with lab view 6.1. i´ve downloaded, the hpe363xa and controll with this vi my 3632a without any kind of problems.
    could i control with this vi the 3633 too?
    some kinds of modification requiered?
    the vi for the 3633 requieres at least lab view 7.0, but i only work with 6.1.
    thx

  • Controlling an Agilent E4428C with Labview

    Hello All,
    We have an Agilent E4428C Signal Generator, and I've downloaded the LV driver and set up the IP address on it.  I can ping it, but I can't see it in MAX.  Are there some instructions on how to set it up for use with LV?  The manual doesn't say anything about LV. 
    Thanks in advance.

    Bill,
    For TCP/IP Instruments you have to add them manually in MAX.  Here is Knowledge Base article that will get you up and going.
    After you get the instrument identified in MAX, you can use the LabVIEW Instrument Driver that you have already downloaded.
    Post back if you have any problems doing this.

  • Is Ardence RTX required when I use PCI-7831R with labview real-time module for RTX target

    I am new in the labview real-time field. I want to use labview real-time module for RTX target on only one desktop. My card is PCI-78331R.  Is Ardence RTX necessary? Why I cannot find my card in the MAX after I configured the RTX?
    Thank you very much.

    Hi Ziaozhongda,
    You must have the RTX runtime engine installed before the LabVIEW Real-Time RTX module will install.  Additionally, you should follow the instructions in the "Using the NI PCI-7831R with the LabVIEW Real-Time Module for RTX" section of Getting Started with the NI 7831R (page 8).
    Please see Configuring Hardware for Use with RTX.

  • Using RSLinx OPC with Labview 2009 SP1 and Getting Wierd Problem

    I have a small test system with 4 analog inputs and 4 analog outputs. Oddly, I can use the Labview Distributed Systems Manager and read the input (level) changes and stroke the analog outputs (valves). However, when I go into a VI, I can get the level readings (only the first time I enter, after that not), but can never stroke the valves. Looking at the shared variable setup in both the project I am using and the Distributed Systems Manager, I have them both set up the same as a PSP with the same OPC reference, although formerly the project used project-attached shared variables.

    Using the timed structure set at the same acquisition rate as the OPC interface corrected the problem.
