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
platform is Windows NT 4.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

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.

Can I use IF-RIO with LabVIEW 8.20

I am going to upgrade my LabVIEW to 8.20 but I am not sure whether the driver of IF-RIO can work with it properly.
Does anybody know this?

Hi,
My customer get problems when using PCI-5640R in LabVIEW 8.2, but they could work in LabVIEW 8.0. Is there any latest NI-5640R driver support LabVIEW 8.2? Or PCI-5640R only works in LabVIEW 8.0?
Operation system and environment:
LV 8.2
LV FPGA 8.2
NI-5640R 1.1
NI-RIO 2.1.3
Display error message in LV 8.2 FPGA complier server.
An internal software error has occurred. Please contact National Instruments

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 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.

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

Hi Everyone
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,...).
Best regards,

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 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.
Also useful is "How Can I Validate That My PC Will Run 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.

Using a wiimote with LabVIEW

After seeing many movies on the internet of people controlling random devices (eg. roomba) with a Wiimote, I wanted to play too. We wrote a set of LabVIEW VIs to configure and query the wiimote. The VIs call into the Microsoft Windows Bluetooth stack and communicate via a set of proprietary input and output reports. Most of the information regarding the proprietary report formats was obtained from the following sites:
WiiBrew Wiki
WiiLi
The Wiimote VIs currently can:
* Read and write LED status
* Read all buttons (except power button)
* Read calibrated accelaration data
* Read up to 4 IR sources
There is still some functionality missing:
* Nunchuk is not supported yet
* Speaker is not supported yet
The minimum requirements (as tested) for using the VIs are:
* Microsoft Windows XP SP2
* Cambridge Silicon Bluetooth Radio (other Bluetooth stacks may work as well)
* LabVIEW 8.2
* Wiimote controller
* IR Source for tracking IR data
These VIs are a work in progress, and I hope to add more features and examples in the future.
Hope this helps,
JohannS
PS Now go shake a wiimote at LabVIEW

My ultimate goal is to have an easy to use set of VIs that expose the functionality of the Nintendo Wiimote.
I have considered adding support for the rumble feature. It would be a single VI, probably called Wiimote Set Rumble.vi, that turns the rumble feature on or off. Unfortunately there are some undesired interaction with the other functions. The rumble state is updated by any output report sent from the host to the wiimote. If you dig into the code, you will see that we use Wiimote Set Output Report.vi all over the place. So the problems are:
1) Turning rumble on/off would disable any previously set LEDs
2) Calling any Wiimote VI that sets an output report would disable the rumble if it has been enabled.
So I am left with following options:
1) Implement a single VI that enables/disables the rumble, knowing that it would be immediately be disabled once I call any other Wiimote VI that sets an output report.
2) Add a rumble input to each VI which sets an output report in the API so that the rumble state is maintained even if calling other Wiimote VIs.
3) Add rumble state information to the Wiimote session. Use session state whenever setting output report to maintain rumble state. This would become slightly trickier when using multiple wiimotes in the same application.
4) Do not support rumble feature for now.
So I would like to ask you a question (or two).
a) Would you mind if the rumble feature is automatically turned off if you call any other Wiimote VI?
b) Would you prefer that the rumble state is maintained even if you call other Wiimote VIs?
Thanks,
JohannS

Can i use Python Matplotlib with labview?

I have a python code that i want to develop a User Interface for, i found Labview, but can i still use all the add-ons and modules when i run the script in labview? basically, i just want to develop a GUI for my code and I want to use all the modules and add-ons that I had in my code. Addons and modules such as pylab, matplotlib, numpy, scipy, and so on. Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The only integration LabVIEW has with Python is that it can call scripts and use the output from those scripts. Here is an example of how to do that.
https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-8995
I would use a Python GUI Framework to control your Python application. Here is a link to the Python Wiki on GUI Frameworks.
