VISA issues when switching from Labview 5.0 to 8.5

Hello all
I am using a pressure transducer that I read using RS-232. In Labview 5.0 I used the Read Serial VI and it worked with no issues (I also tested it with the VISA from 5.0 with no problems either). Now I have upgraded to 8.5 and I seem unable to communicate with it anymore. The usual error I get when i try to read is a timeout error.
I ran the Troubleshooting Serial Line Monitor VI and it seems to work (RI blinks when the output lines are off, DCD RI and CTS blink when DTR is on, and RI DSR and CTS blink when RTS is pushed) The Basic Read and Write VI does not work however. Whenever I get bytes at port it always returns 0. I am using a USB-RS232 converter but this problem remains when I tried using an RS232 port on another computer running 8.2.
I recently added the VISA 4.3 drivers but this did not help.
Thanks for any ideas.

This morning I tried with both the DOS prompt and Indigo terminal emulator. I also checked the setting on my manometer and the manual says that the settings should be:
Baud Rate: 9600
Parity: None
Auto Line Feed: Yes
Margin: 0
Decimal Point: "."
Send EOF: Yes
I then followed the instructions to set the port with MODE COM5:9600,N,8,1,P and it returned
transfer rate: 9600
parity: none
databits: 8
stop bits:1
timeout: on
XON/XOFF: OFF
CTS-handshaking: ON
DSR-handshaking: ON
DSR-sensitivity: OFF
DTR cycle: Handdhake
RTS cycle: Handshake
Then when I try to log the data with COPY COM5 log.txt it creates a txt file on my desktop with no information.
I checked the parameters on the old Labview 5.1 (not 5.0 as I said earlier) computer and they were
Error Replacement Character: 0
Flow Control XOFF Character: 0
Flow Control XON Characcter: 0
Serial Baud Rate: 9600
Serial Data Bits:8
Serial End Mode for Reads: Term Char
Serial End Mode for Writes: None
Serial Flow Control: None
Serial Parity: None
Serial Stop Bits: 1.0
Those were the only parameters available in the Serial Settings Node
With 8.5 I got all the same except
End Mode for Reads: None (when I changed it to TermChar, it didn't help)
XON: 17
XOFF: 19
There were many many more modem line settings but I didn't include them because they weren't in Labview 5.1

  • Error -17600 when switching from LabVIEW Development System to LabVIEW Run-Time Engine in Adapter Configuration

    I receive an error message (code -17600) while loading my test sequence after switching from LabVIEW Development System (2009 f3) to LabVIEW Run-TIme Engine using the Adapter Configuration.
    ErrorCode: -17600,
    Failed to load a required step's associated module.
    LabVIEW Run-Time Engine version 9.0.1f3.
    When I switch back to the LV development system, everything is OK, and the sequence loads and runs perfectly.
    My TestStand Engine Version is 2012 f1 (5.0.0.262).
    I'd appreciate any help on this issue.
    Roman

    Hi Roman,
    There are a couple of things you can try:
    1) Determine if the LabVIEW RunTime Engine is corrupted in some way. Create a new simple VI with no sub-VIs, using the same LabVIEW Development system you used for mass-compiling the VIs. Create a TestStand step that calls this VI and ensure it runs correctly. Now switch your LabVIEW adapter to use the RuntimeEngine and choose the "Auto detect using VI version" option.
    Check if the simple VI is loadable and runs without errors in TestStand.
    If the step generates the same error, you should try a re-install of the LabVIEW development system.
    If not, its most likely that there is some VI you are using that is not loadable in the LabVIEW Runtime Engine because:
    1) Some sub-VI is still not saved in the right version or bitness. Open the VI heirarchy of the top-level VI that you are calling from TestStand and examine the paths of all the sub-VIs to check if they were in the folder you masscompiled and re-save any that are outside this directory.
    Also, when you try to close the top level VI, do you get a prompt to save any unsaved files? If so, they could be the sub-VIs that are not saved in the right version. Save all of them.
    Check if you are loading any VIs programatically and if these are compiled and saved in the right version as well.
    2) There is some feature you are using in your LabVIEW code that is not supported in the LabVIEW RunTime Engine. To check this, add your top-level VI to a LabVIEW project and create a new build specification and create a new executable from this VI.
        Right-click "Build Specifications" and choose "New->Application(EXE)".
        In the Application Properties window, select Source Files and choose the top level VI as the start-up VI.
        Save the properties.
        Right-click on the newly created build specification and choose Build.
    Run this executable (it will be run using the LabVIEW RunTime) and check if the VI has a broken arrow indicating that it cannot be loaded and run in the LabVIEW Runtime Engine.
    You might need to examine your code and find the feature which is not supported in the LabVIEW RunTime and find an alternative.
    Another thing i forgot to mention the last time around is if you are using 64-bit LabVIEW with 32-bit TestStand, then executing code using LabVIEW RTE from TestStand will not work since the 64-bit LabVIEW RTE dll cannot be loaded by the 32-bit TestStand process.
    If none of the above steps resolve the issue, consider sharing your LabVIEW code so i can take a look.

  • Problems with project when switched from Labview 8.2.1 to Labview 10

    Hi everyone,
    I recently switched from Labview 8.2.1 to Labview 10.
    Before I can run the project I get the error which you can see in the attachment.
    (The project is running well in Labview 8.2.1)
    I did already check if variables end with a space, but none of them are.
    The variables are also without any slashes, so that couldn't be the problem either.
    Does anybody has any idea what the problem can be, please let me know.
    I hope to hear from some of you soon.
    Regards,
    Kenny

    Error Labview 10.JPG ‏19 KB

    Your other post in the other thread indicates you've looked at that thread. Based on that have you checked your variable names to see if any of them are multi-line? The error message is basically telling you that you have illegal characters. A carriage return (\r) or a new line (\n) is an illegal character.

  • HT4993 when switching from my htc evo to the iphone 4s they said all my photos and videos would transfer over time, but after 6 hours still nothing has transfered.  Anybody have this issue or know what I can do so I won't lose all my pictures and videos

    When switching from HTC evo to iphone 4s on sprint service the attendant said all my music, photos, and videos would transfer after some time.  Does anyone know if this is true, or has anyone had this issue happen to them?  It has been 8 hours since the switch and only my contacts transferred right away.

    Well i wouldn't see why your photo's, videos and music would trasnfer. As that is a android device, there is no way to have them transfer over the air to the iphone. 
    Contacts probably came from google. Your videos and such you would have to move them to PC then to the iphone. Same with your music.

  • Upgraded to 4 and have noticed that when switching from page to page you get an annoying blink before the next page displays. Any suggestions?

    When switching from tab to tab, Firefox 4 has a tendency to blink before displaying the new tab. Just a millisecond or so but can be annoying.

    If that doesn't work, try power cycling your router, printer, and your iPad/iPhone in that order. To do this, follow these steps:
    Unplug the router and printer from the power and shut off the i-devices. Let them sit for about 30 seconds and then plug just the router in.
    Once the router is completely back online (usually takes about 30-60 seconds) plug the printer in. Wait until it is back on its home screen.
    Turn the i-devices on.
    Try to print again.
    Let me know if this helps!

  • Bring Excel 2007 to the front when called from LabView v9 in Windows 7

    I am building a duplicate system using Windows 7, LabView v9 and Excel v2007.  The original system used WinXP, Excel 2007 and LabView v8.6.  The issue is that the original system was able to bring Excel to the front when called from Labview using the property node -application-> visible.  This new configuration runs Excel, loads the data, runs the macros but does not bring Excel to the front.  The icon blinks in the Win7 taskbar and when selected displays over LabView.  If I minimize the Labview window, Excel is there.  This leads me to conclude that Excel is visible, as requested but will not come to the front until selected from the taskbar.  The only differences, besides the versions, is the original system template files used the .xls extension in and was run in Excel in compatible mode.  At the customers request, the new system uses the .xlsm extension on the Excel template files.  I have tried using application.visible = True in the macro as well.  Could be a setting in Labview?  Could be a setting in Excel? Could be .xls vs. .xlsm? Or an issue with Windows 7 and the newer version of Labview. 
    HP workstation - Labview v9 - Windows 7 - Excel 2007 sp2
    Thank you in advance
    Stephen
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I will try the windowstate change.  Were these done in succession? (i.e. property node -> property node -> property node) Or were they done along the way such as call the ActiveX open and a property node then in a worksheet modification area etc. so there was some time between calls? 
    I am not sure about the API since the discussion there is with regard to DDE.  (Taken from the link document:  If you want to call a DLL that contains ActiveX
    objects, use the Automation
    Open VI with the Property
    Node and the Invoke
    Node.).  I am calling Excel as an application not as a library call unless I am mistaken, which I could certainly be.  Are you thinking that once Excel is active through the Automation Open VI that a DLL call to set the application visible would work?  I may be trying this already but in Excel through the use of the macro I call from LabView.  It contains application.visible = True at the beginning before reading files and plotting data.  
    I may try sprinkling Property node with application->visible in various locations in the LabView diagram as I do update cells after the call to the plot macro.  The puzzle for me is the blinking Excel icon in the task bar.  This means active and running but not visible or something wrong as well.  There are a few #VALUE cells if not all test in the system are run.  Again not a problem in Excel 2007-WinXP-LV8.6
    Thank you again one and all.

  • Blackberry Hub slow when switching from any account to an Exchange Activesync account

    I'm experiencing a very slow hub when switching from any account (facebook, LinkedIn, Whatsapp, Gmail, etc...) TO my work email using Exchange Activesync. When switching back from Exchange Activesync TO any other account the issue is noy there. It basically takes a couple of minutes to enter the Exchange Activesync acocunt, and looking at the Device Monitor, CPU section, seems like the Hub process is constantly at 50% CPU usage during this time. This is really causing me lots of issues, as of course I switch between accounts quite frequently. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks for the support!

    I'm having the same issue.  What can be causing it.
    It was fine using a Z30 until 10.3.1.1865 was recently updated.
    Switching between all other accounts is fine just when going to my exchange account (or the main hub view)

  • JMS issues when migration from weblogic 9.2 to 10.3.5

    We are facing some issues when migration from weblogic 9.2 to 10.3.5
    In  weblogic 9.2 :_
    BMP Entity EJBs used in our project are read-only in nature using entity cache, below is the configuration details

    Entity beans will get refreshed using the JMS messges. with in the MDB descriptor files(weblogic-ejb-jar.xml) we are using the provider URL directly and XA enabled connection factory is set to false.
    migration to Weblogic 10.3.5_
    With the same configurations MDB are not not getting deployed in weblogic 10 with some exception, so we removed the provider URL from weblogic-ejb-jar.xml and changed the JMS configuration to use foreign JMS and XA enable connection factory is set to true. Now when ever the JMS message is triggered Entity bean is not getting refreshed with the updated values. i.e values are stale.
    Can some one look into this and provide your inputs to resolve this issue.

    I think the Entity bean refresh problem appears to be unrelated to MDBs. The MDB is only responsible for getting the message to your application (which in turn interacts with Entity beans). You might want to try posting your question to an EJB newsgroup.

  • Help! mail dissappears when switching from junk training to automatic mode

    I'm a new Mail user recently switched from 20 years of Eudora. I'm using Mail with a standard POP account. I've had no trouble setting up mailboxes and importing my old mail.
    I've been using junk filtering in training mode for the past few weeks and want to switch to automatic mode. When I tried doing this, all of my inbox messages suddenly disappeared. I quit mail and rebuilt my inbox and found myself with thousands of duplicated messages. I'm using Andreas Amann's remove duplicates script to clean up my inbox (it's taking forever but working!)
    My inbox has about 7000 messages currently. My practice with Eudora has always been to keep the current year in the inbox and archive at the beginning of the new year. I'd like to continue this with Mail.
    A couple questions:
    1) will rebuilding a mailbox cause duplicates? When should one use rebuild?
    2) do I just need to be more patient and let mail do its thing when switching from training mode to automatic?
    3) is 7000 messages considered too many for a single mailbox?
    Any help much appreciated. Many thanks!

    1) will rebuilding a mailbox cause duplicates?
    No.
    When should one use rebuild?
    This question doesn’t have a simple answer in the case of Mail 2.x and POP accounts.
    2) do I just need to be more patient and let mail do its thing
    when switching from training mode to automatic?
    I think so.
    3) is 7000 messages considered too many for a single mailbox?
    There is a limit on the overall size of individual mailboxes rather than on the number of messages stored in them -- see Overstuffed mailbox is unexpectedly empty.

  • Has anyone else noticed that: "The OS X Lion v10.7.3 Update includes Safari 5.1.3 and fixes that: Resolve a Wi-Fi connection issue when waking from sleep" didn't work?

    I installed OS X Lion v10.7.3 because of the following claim.
    The OS X Lion v10.7.3 Update includes Safari 5.1.3 and fixes that:
    Resolve a Wi-Fi connection issue when waking from sleep
    It continues to be a real pain having to reconnect to the network each time I wake my MacBook Air from sleep.
    Does anyone have a suggestion for the resolution to this problem?

    It seems the update fixed old problems for some and caused new problems for others. Sorry to hear you're in the latter group.
    Here are some things to try.
    1. Go to System Preferences > Network, and click the gear icon under the network interfaces like so:
    Whatever service order you have set, drag Wi-Fi either to the top (assuming it's not already there) or someplace else in the list. Click OK and then Apply. Sleep the system then wake it again to observe any changes.
    2. Click Wi-Fi in the above then click Advanced. Select all the networks your computer has ever joined and delete them with the "-" button. OK then Apply again. Select your network under the AirPort icon to re-join it. Sleep and wake again to see if that did anything.
    3. Try creating a new, temporary user account. Log in under that account to see if its behavior is any different.
    You may have done all of these already but perhaps there is something you have not thought of. If nothing helps we may just have to wait a bit longer for Apple to release a fix.

  • Resolve a Wi-Fi connection issue when waking from sleep

    Hi,
    In the recent release for Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 "Resolving a Wi-Fi connection issue when waking from sleep" was supposed to be resolved, not so at my end. Has anyone else encountered the same issue and if so will there be a resolve.
    Thank you

    Hello BGreg and thank you for your answer,
    I have alreadty read about this solution, and tried it.
    I downloaded the 1.2 Go file, and applied it. And repaired permissions.
    Everything went fine.
    Unfortunately, it didn't solve the problem.
    Meaning that when iMac wakes up, it doen't join my WiFi network.
    I have to do it manually.
    I don't know what to do : it is very strange because I never had that problem with OS 10.7.2 !
    And my network setup has never changed.
    another info :
    I noticed that in the network setup screen, when I want to close the little lock to restrain further modifications, it won't close. Weird !
    Do you think I should call Apple Assistance ?
