What determines which inputs you can select from when you're creating a VISA Resource Name Constant?

Hey, I'm trying to write a labview driver an instrument. I have another instrument which came with labview drivers, and I had hoped that by looking at how they did it, I could write my own for this piece of equipment.
However, the problem is they use the old visa open method. That is, they input a string, "GPIB::6", and it outputs a visa session.
The new Visa open requires that you have an input resource name, and the constants only let me pick from "COM1" and "LPT1", but the GPIB interface card in this computer is in a PCMCIA slot.
What determines what choices you get when you select the value of the constant?
Thanks,
-Dobbs

If you created a VISA Resource Name control, right click on the control and select "Allow Undefined Names".
I haven't programmed directly using VISA on LabVIEW 6 but it apppears that if you select from the drop-down menu, it shows the devices that is defined in MAX. Thus, you should be able to select your GPIB resource name if it has been properly installed.
Nevertheless, it still allows you to override the control by selecting "Allow Undefined Names".
I hope that helps.

  • Firefox fails to import history, cookies, favourites etc. from opera; cookies etc. are not listed in the space where you can select the items you want to import any idea how this comes? thanks!

    In the importing operation Firefox detects Internet Explorer and Opera as installed browsers. When i select Internet Explorer cookies, history, favourites etc. are listed in a box where you can select the items you want to import in Firefox. When i select Opera no items are listed that can be imported. Any idea how this comes?

    Hi,
    I think that what you are searching be in Tools >> Options >> Privacy >> On Firefox will: change to "Use custom settings for history" then Button Show Cookies will be allowed and you will see the cookies in your browser in the next window
    If you uncheck "Accept cookies from sites", probably the sites that need cookies will alert you that you need active the storage cookies

  • I would like to know, on the ringtone page, where you can select songs out of your music library, is there a way to remove a song from the list after its selected? I would thin there would be a way to "delete" the songs from the list. (Clock app)

    I would like to know, on the ringtone page, where you can select songs out of your music library, is there a way to remove a song from the list after its selected? I would thin there would be a way to "delete" the songs from the list. (Clock app)
    Let me explain:
    In the clock app for ios 6.0.2 I am a little confused. It allows you to go into your music library, and create a ringtone using any songs you choose. However, I cannot find a way to remove a song from this list, just like I cannot delete one of the preset ringtones (which I'm not trying to do, but just as an example)
    Thanks for your time! If you need more information just ask.
    (I believe both my iPod and iTunes are up to date)

    I believe you just are able to delete them from iTunes.
    Hope it will be helpful

  • If you right-click an image you can select to "Block Images" from the site, but how do you reverse this choice?

    If you right-click an image on a web page you can select to
    "Block Images from [the url of the site]".
    This works well, particularly to make the page printer-friendly, but how do you reverse this choice to see the images again?

    You can see all permissions for the current page in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
    If it is from a different domain then use this:
    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (<i>Site Identification</i> icon) on the left side of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Open the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

    Are you using Keynote on an iPad?
    If so you posted in the wrong forum, this is the Keynote Mac discussion and it is a different application. I dont know how the iPad works at all, so I cant help you, post in the Keynote iOS discussion.
    If you are using a Mac, the colours palette is accesed by clicking on the colour well (arrowed) and then selecting a colour chip or changing the color in the colour wheel.

  • Which is fast ? Select * from tableName or Select Column1,Column2 .... From tableName ? and Why ?

    Which is fast ? Select * from tableName or Select Column1,Column2 .... From tableName ? and Why ?
    select * from Sales.[SalesOrderHeader]
    select SalesOrderNumber,RevisionNumber,rowguid from Sales.[SalesOrderHeader]
    As you can see both the query execution plan and subtree cost is same. So how selecting the particular columns optimize the query ?

    Yes, selecting specific columns is always better than select *.
    If you always need few columns in result, then just use SELECT col1, col2 FROM YourTable. If you SELECT * FROM YourTable; that is extra useless overhead.
    If in future if someone adds Image/BLOB/Text type columns in your table, using SELECT * will worsen the performace for sure.
    Let's say if you have SP and you use INSERT INTO DestTable SELECT * FROM TABLE which runs fine BUT again if someone adds few more columns then your SP will fail saying provided columns don't match.

    Once you redeem a gift card are purchases automatically deducted from gift card or do you have to select something when you download ?

    It'll be automatic unless there's a problem on the iTunes Store servers or you're making a purchase which can't be paid for with iTunes Store credit, such as another gift card.

    n mountain lion calendar, the alerts on give you a "close" or "snooze" options.  What happen to being able to select how long you wanted to snooze your alert?

    SnoozeMaster is now avaiable from the Mac App Store, for MacOS X 10.8 and up.
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/snoozemaster/id614955483?mt=12
    It addresses this exact issue. You'll be able to configure different pre-set snooze times, enter custom snooze times when an alarm triggers, etc. It's what snoozing should've been from the get go.

    Hello, Suzanne. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Unfortunately there isn't a list available at this time for applications that are specific for your iOS/Software version.  However, once you know which iOS/Software version you have installed, you can browser various applications and look for ones that meet your system requirements.  I have included a screenshot below on how to look for this information.
