Visa ethernet problems

Hello;
I am having some problems,
I am using a serial HHP bar code scanner to get data to lab view, but I need to use ethernet, thus I convert to ethernet using "lantronix uds100 converter"
I configured lantronix converter with IP address and added to Max and every thing seems to be fine
but the problem is when I trigger the scanner to read a barcode, because the information never is read by my code
(I proved using serial VISA and works fine but when I change to ethernet visa does not work and I get an error message
I will appreciate if someone can help me
thanks

Hi,
If you are able to receive data to your VI but you still getting time out error messages, the reason could be you have specified a Return Byte Count for the read that is larger than the data trying to be sent back. The VISA Read VI is waiting for more data than is going to be sent from Ethernet device. This is why it receives the return data, displays it correctly, and still times out. You can see more information about it at the following link:

HELP!!! Mac G4 450mhz dual ethernet PROBLEMS!

Hello, my mac is having a serious problem with the internet. It won't connect, and even though i have a ethernet cable plugged in, it says i don't. Everything was working fine until i left for 2 days and and plugged it for that time. I need the internet in that mac as soon as possible.
PLEASE HELP ME!

I too, am having the same problem... but mine isn't because of the possible software update, it just flat out doesn't work!
I too, have tried asking for help with the possibility of (hopefully) restoring the driver/extension... but after reformating the drive and reinstalling the software from 10.2, to 10.2.8 and it still failed to work, I ended up buying a Belkin Gigabit Ethernet PCI Card that has FAILED in every way!!!
The Belkin card will work as a one-time thing, and after restarting or disconnecting the Ethernet cable, it fails to function and fails to be "selectable" within the Ethernet configuration "Show:" options.
...so don't buy the Belkin...
I have yet to resolve my dead Ethernet problem, and it is... a problem!
I know this isn't contributing much of anything, but don't waist your time with the Belkin. I bought one, it acted in the way described above, and the Belkin Tech Support suggested I exchange it with another one, and so I did... and it too... is acting in the manner described above.
No resolve... no Ethernet... no on-line schtuff. not on that G4!!!

Macbook Pro ethernet problems

Hi All:
First post here. I have a 15" first generation MBP, and I'm having some ethernet problems. When my ethernet works, it works fine. However, if i were to shut down the machine and disconnect the ethernet cable, I cannot reconnect to the ethernet. In Network Preferences, Ethernet is not available in the pulldown and it appears gray-ed out in the Network Port Configurations. Restarting the computer, unplugging or resetting the modem doesn't help. Also, the PC link light on the modem will not be lit (but is lit when working).
The computer will not connect to any ethernet network, no matter where I am.
I've noticed if I keep resetting both comuter an modem a couple dozen times over a few hours, the PC link button will light, and upon next startup the ethernet connection will be restored. What do you guys think the problem is? It seems abnormal to me.

Had a similar situation with mine back in January, 2.16 Intel.
After spending 3 nights with my Cable ISP as the connection would drop-off, ethernet light flicker green,amber etc.
Took it back to Apple dealer, connected to Dealers network same problem. Cause:::: Motherboard had to be replaced, possible soder loose on the MO. Got it back in 10 days, haven't had a problem ever since.
Suggest you take back yours to have Apple dealer try this out.

64 bit serial driver with 32 bit VISA causing problems?

I'm running LabView 2012 on Linux (kernel 3.10) on an x86_64 machine. I think that VISA is not playing nicely with my 64-bit serial driver. I have a few instuments connected through an NPort serial to ethernet converter. Instruments which output data constantly (unpolled) are working fine. I'm reading ASCII data from those using both minicom and LabView / VISA with no problem. Instruments which need to be polled for data are not working.
The same software and drivers are working fine on a 32-bit machine in the same lab (although I compiled the NPort serial driver for 32-bit on that machine). All I can think is that 32-bit VISA doesn't like the "bitness" of the 64 bit serial driver, and it's mashing anything I try to write to a serial port. This being the case:
1) Can I install 64-bit VISA for Linux in conjunction with 32-bit Labview? Would that work?
2) If I have to go for a 64-bit LabView, do I really need to downgrade my kernel to 2.x as suggested in a hidden NI compatibility document that I now can't find?
3) Why is Linux such an after-thought with NI?

OK. Panic over. Could be down to differences in control codes that the newer version of the driver is acting on.

Re-establishing VISA Ethernet comms

My scenario:
1. I am using an Agilent 34980A datalogger with a notebook running LabVIEW 2010 10.0f2 connected via an ethernet crossover cable.
2. I log temperatures for up to 300 thermocouples every 5 mins. Tests typically run for 4 to 8 hours and often overnight.
3. If there are any power glitches, the datalogger will reboot into an initialised state. Battery backup on the notebook will keep it running.
What I am finding is if power is lost, and the ethernet connection is disturbed, I cannot re-establish comms without re-booting the PC running my compiled LabVIEW code.
The last couple of days I have been running my uncompiled code to try and work out where the problem is. This is what I have found:
1. After the ethernet connection is first established, I can view the logger in MAX.
2. I run my code, the logger is found and the software and logging functions work fine.
3. If I re-boot the logger while my LabVIEW code is still running, the connection cannot re-establish and I get a VISA error -1073807346.
4. If I go into MAX again I can connect to the logger and view the HTML pages the logger is pushing to MAX but still my code can't re-establish.
5. If I restart my LabVIEW code, connection is then re-established.
Does it have anything to do with VISA opens and closes? Any clues would be much appreciated!
Regards, Adam

Please find attached the coding I have been using to investigate my errors. (LABview V10 vi)
This seems like the best way to recover from comms errors that I have come up with, but I am very happy for the gurus on here to pull my code to bits as they see fit!
There are still some times when it cannot recover and I have to restart LabVIEW and/or the 34980A datalogger to recover.
I also notice that the Find VISA resource list will list my three 34980A loggers even if they are are not connected, so I have to ping each one to work out which one is actually connected. I guess I could use the default IP address instead to connect.
I had also forgotten that the dataloggers have USB on them as well, so I am now comparing USB as a permanent connection option. So far it seems to recover much better than Ethernet, but I would love to hear from others regarding USB vs Ethernet comms for reliability.
I also have a wireless DAQ module on loan from NI that I am evaluating......

Ethernet Problem with Multiple users on same Mac

Hi, sorry i advance for my english. I am writing from italy.
I have an imAc with 2 users profiles on it. one profile is administratoe, and the oter a standard user.
I also have a time capsule configured to connect to my network with the ethernet cable. the cable is plugged in the wan pot, the configuration is "bridged" and i use as a router a linksys wifi router.
well. suppsung that i am logging in with one of my users and access to time capsule wirelessly, it shows me the disk content.
i then swith to the other user without logging off the first one and then access time capsule where i see the same folfder and i can access it. so everything works fine.
in the case i connect my mac with ethernet (disabling airort) to my linksys router, ifuser 1mounts time capsule, user 2 can't access it if user 1 does not unmount.
why so?
i need to switch from user 1 to user 2 without logging off, and i don't understand why it works wirless and not with ethernet..
thak you

In fact, all my page beans are in REQUEST scope...
The only bean in Application scope is the standard applicationBean created by Creator itself.
We use one Bean in session scope which contains another class.
I will try to explain our common process:
- when logging into the app, the session Bean stores user data (rights for using app,...);
- when navigating in the app, the user can search data, modify them and create one (if he has the right to do it);
- to define the screen, we use a lot the beforeRenderResponse();
- when viewing a data, the user can choose to modify it, so depending on the action, the page is in "CONSULT" mode or "MODIFY" mode. In the second one, he can display new gridPanel (as a subform) to populate datatable.
The problem is obvious while using this grid: my grid can disappear if someone else has validated his form before me and if my page goes trough the beforeRender of my page.
It is not really clear. If needed, i can give access to our application to show the problem (and msn adress too to talk about it).
Thank you

How do I correctly time while loops using SCPI and VISA/Ethernet communication to send DC current Values to a Power supply?

I'm rather new to using labview and I having an
issue with a test Data Aquisition lab I'm trying to setup using a
Keithley 6221 AC/DC current source and a basic PCI M-series NI-DAQmx.
First of all, I'm looking to update the current value on a power
supply at a rate of atleast 10Hz and I'm using SCPI commands and VISA
communication through ethernet to do so. Attached below is the VI I
have written.
The issue I'm having is this:
My VI will
loop through the values fine in software, or so it seems. I am unable
to get the Power supply to update sequentially if I don't set my loop
delay to anything greater than 130ms. If I try to run the loop faster
it starts skipping values instead of counting 1,2,3,4,5,1,2,...etc. it
goes 1,2,4,5,2,4,1,2 on the display of the power supply and my DAQ unit
also skips these values so I know that the number just isn't getting
read to the Power supply in time. I was wondering if this was due to
my sloppy programming or if it is a hardware issue, my computer or the
method of communication to the power supply? Is this due to the fact
that I'm using ethernet and VISA communication? Is there a faster way
to communicate or is GPIB faster? Any input at all would be extremely
helpful.
On a side note: Right now I'm using an pre-determined
array of values that I can update on the fly but in the future this
with be put into a closed-loop control system. The value for the
power supply output will be determined by the loop and sent that way.

Also, one of the string constants is NOT set to '\' Codes Display. Here is an alternative method of calculating the index. I removed the DAQ and VISA stuff since I could not run it.

MacBook Pro 13 (2011) Ethernet problems

Hi all! I bought my laptop 3 months ago. almost immediately there was a problem with the Ethernet. The essence is this: after 2-3 hours it stops working. That is, as if the cord is not plugged in. I upgraded my operation system to 10.7.2 but the problem remains.

hi -zieg-
This is my recommendation for your consideration
Also have 3 mo. old MBP (17")
Had ,very briefly, same problem: reinstalled Lion... and problem vanished.
Please remember to do backup B4 any major system change. if you choose to do this: I have time capsule. This would be,of course, a solution albeit time consuming....
Let 'er rip and ...
cheers

Help with ethernet problems

Can anyone help with this?
Have a black powerbook, snow leopard, safari. No problems at all with wireless/ethernet at home
When at work, usually just unplug ethernet from work PC and once plugged into mac, it automatically detects internet connection just like that
For some reason, tonight, when I try this have no connection (an exclamation mark over the airport icon) and when I go into network in sys pref, says "self assigned ip address"
If I switch to DHCP manually, can input ip address from PC and it works fine but whenever i try and switch to automatic, it wont work
Have spent ages looking through the internet to try and find answer - firewall is off, no recent changes to software/hardware, flushed ipfw, etc
Any bright ideas?
Thanks a lot

I am a bit confused by your post. Are you trying to connect to your network wirelessly using the AirPort card, or are you trying to use a wired connection via your Ethernet port?
What is the source of your Internet connection? DSL? Cable modem? Something else?
Are you connected to a router? What make and model?
Best of luck.

Visa open problem

Hi
I'm using labview2009. I've connected 8593E spectrum analyzer using GPIB interface to my PC.The problem is the instrument address is not coming automatically in the VISA open function input when I connect the instrument to my PC. can anyone sort it out. I've installed Agilent IO libraries suit15.0 and NI device drivers.
Regards
RobinHood

Hi,
If you are using Agilent GPIB then i guess u need passport tulip. Steps to do it i will attached here the manual.I guess it should work.

Macbook ethernet problem

A few days ago my ethernet socket started misbehaving. After plugging in the cable, if I pushed the plug gently to the right of the socket it worked fine, but release the pressure and it stopped working. Looking at the Network preferences, it's clear - push to the right and a green light appears against Ethernet, release and the green light goes grey. Now it's stopped working completely.
So it seems like a hardware problem, or at least some physical problem with the socket. But I don't understand what could have caused it. It's been working fine for 4 months, I haven't dropped it and there's no physical damage. The socket looks fine, the pins are straight, the 4 metal bits in the socket are in place (2 at the top, 2 at the sides) and the cable locks in place OK. I've tried different cables and connecting to different sockets as well. The only thing I've been doing is plugging and unplugging the cable every day.
Any suggestions, or do I have to take it to an Apple Store for repair?
Thanks

I would suggest taking it in for repair. Hopefully you're still under warranty. The constant plugging and unplugging could have caused something to happen to the socket.

Ethernet Problem

Hi.
I have a 800 Mhz iMac flat panel that has had a ethernet port issues for a few years, but I have been using the Airport with no problem. I now have faster Internet and would like to connect it via Ethernet, but have not been able to do so.
I ran the network diagnostics and it did not work. I have attempted to reset the PRAM and NVRAM to no avail. Are there any other options I am forgetting? Do I simply have a broken port? How fast is a USB/Ethernet adapter? Is it quicker than the first generation airport?
Thanks for your time.

Hello,
Very few home Internet connections are faster than even the oldest Airport cards. The original Airport card is 11Mbps, USB1.1 is 12Mbps, Ethernet (in these iMacs) is 100Mbps. Most ISPs in the UK only offer "Up to 8Mbps" and this will be shared between your iMac and MB.

IMac DualCore with Ethernet problem

Hi,
today I received my new iMac Dualcore 17". But after installing I suddenly realized that the ethernet port is not working. I plugged in my DSL-cable and nothing happend. The modem is working fine with my older Mac. Apple Support Chat advised me to reset both the PRAM and SUM, but unfortunately with no success.
Does anyone of you have a clue what to do? I'm not very keen on sending my new iMac back to Apple and waiting another couple of weeks before they get it fixed.
Thanks in advance to any reply!
Cheers,

Do you have any details s to the problems you
experienced with the Cisco Switches? I also have a
Cisco VoIP system in place and I keep getting kicked
off the network when connected through the phones.
Did you just plug the computer into the wall and
disable all the 802.11q trunking on that port? If
so I think I may have another jack close by that can
be set up for this specific computer.
Correct. 802.1Q trunking is specifically what the Ethernet interfaces on apparently all Intel-based Macs to date are having troubles with. In other words, disable the aux VLAN on a switch port, and the Intel-based Mac's Ethernet will work on that port. (Obviously this suggestion assumes you have netadmin privileges over your switch!)
It concerns me that no software update has yet been released for this problem. One would think if it were simply a driver issue, an updated driver would have already been released. Thus, one might be lead to believe that the problem goes deeper than software.
