Using IVI driver for reading delay in MSO6104A

Hi,
I have the NI IVI driver for the MSO6104A scope. The driver is functional and I manage to use it.
My scope has a function of measuring delay between two different channels. But, how can I read the Delay measurement using IVI scope step?
Is there any other way of reading this measurement?
Thanking in advance

Go to Solution.

As far as I know, interchannel delay is not a supported IVI measurement function. So, you can complain to ivifoundation.org first of all. Or, in a code module, you can use the instrument specific driver to get the measurement. This would make the application 'non-IVI' so most of the reasons for using IVI in the first place are gone. Or, retrieve the waveforms from each channel and calculate the delay in a code module.

  • Using IVI driver for Keithley 6485

    I am trying to learn how to use IVI drivers.  I installed IVI drivers for two instruments, an HP34401A and a Keithley 6485.  I was able to get the HP to work in simulation mode (I don't have the hardware).  I am also trying to get the 6485 working in simulation mode.  The attached vi was provided by Keithley.  I configured a logical name in MAX, but this name doesn't show up as an option when I edit the "logical name" control on the front panel.  I changed the Initialize vi to Initialize with Options and added a command string control to set the mode to simulation, manually entered the correct name in the control, and ran the program.  No error was indicated in the Initialize vi.  After the configuration vi runs, however, the following error was flagged:
    Error -1074135023 occurred at IviDmm IVI Error Converter.vi
    Possible reason(s):
    Primary Error: (Hex 0xBFFA0011) Function or method not supported.
    Elaboration: FunctionId: 46,  FunctionName: ConfigureMeasurement
    Complete call chain:
         IviDmm IVI Error Converter.vi
         IviDmm Configure Measurement.vi
         KE6485_ZeroChk_LV86.vi
    This error is being generated by IviDmm Configure Measurement.vi, which is apparently installed NI code.  Specifically, the error appears to be thrown when Call Library Function Node is invoked and IviDmm.dll is called.  I wasn't able to track down any further info as to the meaning of these error codes.
    Thanks for your assistance.

    Hello,
    3rd party devices will show in MAX only when that device is listed at a specific place within your computer's registry. Non-NI hardware may not show up in MAX.
    As far as the logical name is concened, unfortunately, you will have to contact Keithley to get a better understanding of their code.
    You could download our IVI driver from the link below as you might have better luck with it.  You can find any of our 3rd party drivers at www.ni.com/idnet.

  • Is there a IVI driver for Racal Instruments 1256 switching system ?

    Is there any IVISwitch driver for the RI1256 switching system somewhere ? Is NI working on it since RacalInstruments doesn't seems to be interrested in this matter ?

    Hi,
    I am not sure how similar the 1260 series is, but we do have IVI drivers for it at www.ni.com/idnet. You may be able to get away with using this driver for your instrument if it is basically the same thing with fewer features.
    If not, I would like you to submit a request for this driver at: http://zone.ni.com/idnet97.nsf/instrumentdriverrequest/ and with the instrument manufacturer. We develop drivers based on demand and popularity so the more requests we have for it, the greater the possibility that we will develop one.
    If you would like to try developing your own driver, we have documentation, model instrument drivers, and driver templates to help at :
    http://www.ni.com/devzone/idnet/development.htm
    We also have a syndicate of third party ven
    dors that specialize in National Instruments' products and services. Some of the vendors specialize in driver development. I would suggest contacting one of the Alliance members at:
    http://www.ni.com/alliance
    An instrument driver is a collection of functions that implement the commands necessary to perform the instrument�s operations. In short, someone read the instrument user manual and implemented some of the functionality in a program for the end user. Instrument drivers are not necessary to use your instrument.
    Hope this helps out!
    Let me know if there is anythign else I can do for you.

    Hello all,
            I have a problem in using IVI driver (ke230y) to control keithley2303 powersupply with LABVIEW 2013.
     After I initialize and config ke2303 well and run to  "IviDCPwr Measure [MSR].vi", it ocurrs errors. While lasting about 15 seconds and then reports errors as attached:
    The code (attached) when I test with other powersupplies such as agilent66309d and keithley2306(with ivi driver ke230x), it runs well.
    So I've no idear about this problem with keithley2303 powersupply, can you guys ever meet this problem and may reply for me to fix it.

    I don't have the any driver's source code (such as ividcpwr.dll source code), how can I modify the specific driver through labwindows.
    Follow your advice I use I/O trace to get trace as follows:
    1 IviDCPwr_InitWithOptions ("ke2303", VI_FALSE, VI_TRUE, "", 0x0C913064) VI_SUCCESS 14:45:10.675
    2 IviDCPwr_ConfigureVoltageLevel (ke2303, "CHANNEL1", 3.8) VI_SUCCESS 14:45:11.405
    3 IviDCPwr_ConfigureCurrentLimit (ke2303, "CHANNEL1", 0, 3) VI_SUCCESS 14:45:12.104
    4 IviDCPwr_ConfigureOutputEnabled (ke2303, "CHANNEL1", VI_TRUE) VI_SUCCESS 14:45:12.824
    5 IviDCPwr_Measure (ke2303, "CHANNEL1", 1, 0) VI_ERROR_TMO 14:45:16.207
    6 IviDCPwr_GetError (ke2303, -1073807339, 0, "") 0x00000037 14:45:32.991
    7 IviDCPwr_GetError (ke2303, -1073807339, 55, "Primary Error: ..................") VI_SUCCESS 14:45:32.991
    8 IviDCPwr_close (ke2303) VI_SUCCESS 14:45:33.847
    I cannot see any GPIB command in the trace but some IviDCPwr functions.
    Besides, if I know any bug (eg. some wrong GPIB command) in ividcpwr.dll, how can I modify it before I get it's source code.
    Pls teach me anytime in your conveneince.
    thanks!

  • Use one drive for attachments using outlook

    using the portal or OWA you can use one drive for attachments rather then adding the file to the e mail itself , i was wondering if we will have this feature on outlook soon

    Hi,
    As you have known, in Outlook client there is no such feature right now, we need to insert the OneDrive file link manually to the new message if we want to attach a file.
    I can't guarantee if this feature will be added in the further version, but please be assured that any improvements in the product are based on users' requirements. Our developers strive to capture Microsoft users' ideas and are working hard to create a

  • Use external drive for windows and mac

    Hello,
    I just bought a external 320Gb Western Digital Drive. I would like to use
    the drive for windows and mac.I will not like to make partation on the drive
    to use it on both operating systems. Is there any formating system with which i can use in both operating systems? I would like to use time machine feature on that drive also.
    Thanx.

    If you want to use a disk for both PC/Mac file storage and Time Machine, you will have to create two partitions. Partitioning is sort of like creating multiple virtual disks on the same physical disk. One partition should be formatted for PC (which the Mac can also use) and the other should be formatted for HFS+ (Mac only) which is what Time Machine requires. The Disk Utility application makes partitioning and formatting very easy.

  • I need an IVI-Driver for a Tektronix TDS 5000

    IVI-Scope steptypes from TestStand require an IVI driver for the TDS5000. Any help ?

    The driver is not available now, but should be available on the begin 2003. Try use tktds7x4, the command set should be same from 90%. Only ranges will be different. Try use it. For sure try disable cache. If your application will required any ranges which are out of range for this driver. Disable range chacking too. I wrote this driver, so if you will have any troubles, let me know.

  • Use external drive for Time Capsule backups AND file storage?

    I have an external drive formatted by my MBP.  I'm using it to store my iTunes music library and iPhoto pics.  Can I use the drive for Time Capsule backups as well?

    Yes, but that is not recommended. Storage and backup should be kept separate to reduce the chances of a disk failure. This is especially important because you cannot even partition a Time Capsule drive. Go get a separate drive for your storage needs. Get another drive for a second backup and use a different method of backup than Time Machine

  • I cannot load Maverick on my iMac HD.  It reports that my HD is used for Time Machine backups and will not load to that drive.  I do not use this drive for backups.  Help.

    I cannot load Maverick on my iMac HD.  It reports that my HD is used for Time Machine backups and will not load to that drive.  I do not use this drive for backups.  I use an external 1 TB WD My Book for backups as well as Super Duper Backups. Can anyone offer advice.   Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You have got the "Backups.backupdb" folder in the root level of your hard drive. This is the folder used by Time Machine to save backups to, and the OS X Mavericks installer thought that your hard drive is being used to store Time Machine backups
    To fix this, open a Finder window, select the Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type:
    Then, delete "Backups.backupdb" and empty the Trash. Finally, open the Mavericks installer from the Applications folder and follow the steps

  • Hello , I want to ask some question about ipads \  How powerful is the iPad?  How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web? Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?   please help me :(

    Hello ,
    I want to ask some question about ipads \
    How powerful is the iPad? 
    How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web?
    Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?  
    please help me

    it's less powerful than your average computer. THink of it like a netbook but with a better processor.
    It'll do fine for surfing (although if you browse a lot of flash based sites you will need to get a third party browser since safari doesn't accommodate it)
    You may do OK on reading books, papers or magazines, especially if they have apps, but the ipad's screen is backlit, so it doesn't work well outdoors and you may need to fiddle with the brightness so that you don't get eye strain (it's just like doing too much reading from a computer screen)
    I would say the biggest short comings are data transfer. Apple's preferred work flow is that everything is done via iTunes or the internet....well people dont' always have 100% reliable always on internet access so you can find yourself in a situation where you can't get things on/off the iPad.
    By and large, it's a good device for day to day stuff, but is not a computer replacement.

    Because sync requires to use persistent storage locations. This is out of Adobe's control. It is entirely up to the hardware vendor how he anchors the drive/ volume and integrates it into the file and folder structure.

  • Did someone have experience to use downloaded driver for SR 245?

    Did someone have experience to use downloaded driver for SR 245 to take data? I used GPIB-USB-HS cable (from NI) to collect data, and corrected GPIB address in the driver, which is found by M&A Explorer. When I ran this program driver, I saw ERROR light flashing one time and Activity light flashing for another time, but I got nothing for data. I used BNC cable to connect input signal in INPORT 1 in the front panel of SR 245, so there should have signal input.  Do I need to change something in the program?
    Thanks

    Hi Linghui,
    The EABO error usually indicates a timeout.  This could be caused by a
    few different things such as sending an
    incorrect command or not appending the correct termination
    character.  I would check the manual for your device and see if it requires a certain type of termination character, as well as what commands it accepts.  You can also find troubleshooting techniques for this error here and here.
    Hope this helps!

  • The VI of I2C driver for reading and writing registers was functional in 6.1 but that same VI is not working for 7.0 & 7.1 version. WinIO is also used in generating the dll as OS is Windows2000. What could be the problem?

    HI,
    I'm not familiary wiht the WinIO functio that you are using here but there are a couple of thisngs to watch out for when doing low-level access.
    The most common problem with low level IO functions is that if they were created for Win9x, they will not work under Win NT/2000/XP. NT based OSes require you to have kernel access to do any low level communication. Make sure that the WinIO library that you are using is aupported under Win2K.
    Since you have the code for the dll available, you could attach LabVIEW as an external process in your C compiler and debug the dll; this can helps you track down the exact function that is failing.
    Just my 2 cents.
