What is it "USB-USB Network Bridge Adaptor" in my NI PXI-8106 controller?

What is it "USB-USB Network Bridge Adaptor" in my NI PXI-8106 controller?
Could I disable this device in "Device Manager". Because it is generating new network card and same application which is using PC information is using this "interface" to generate PC information for licensing.
I am using TestStand 4.01 and LabVIEW 8.5 and Acculogic ScanNavigator

Hi JCC,
I don't think that's an NI software/driver, you can certainly try and disable it in Device Manager and see what effect it has. You can always enable it again if it causes problems when disabled.

  • CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controller installation not working

    I have been working with Silicon Labs and Davis Instruments to try to get this driver installed on my iMac without any success. The driver was working on 10.4.11, but after I upgraded to 10.6.2 it is no longer recognized and does not show up in /dev, i.e. no cu.CP2102... or tty.CP2102... . I went to the Silicon Labs web site and downloaded the VCP driver kit that is used to talk to the Davis device (https://www.silabs.com/Support%20Documents/Software/MacOSX_VCPDriver.zip), performed the installation, and restarted.
    I looked at System Preferences, then at Network Preferences. The <CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controller> shows up as a grayed out Modem with Inactive Status. Clicking on the Advanced button, it shows the CP2102 as an Apple Modem. Under the WINS tab, it lists the CP2102's NetBIOS Name as IMAC-C7DFF1 and indicates that name is currently being used (possibly by another USB to UART adaptor I use to talk to an old Garmin, i.e. usbserial-FTCUSRHZ, and showing the same NetBIOS Name). Not sure if this is the reason that the CP2102 is not being seen.
    I searched Console, Kernel, Install, and System logs for CP2102, among other things. I did not see any problems in those logs over the installation timeframe. I did notice that the CP2102 gets turned off after 10 seconds of no activity several times in the past in Kernel log, but not as a result of this set of installs. I scanned the various logs over the half hour of the install process, but did not see anything else of interest.
    I opened System Profile and clicked on the USB selection. I expanded each of the USB entries and found the one that shows the CP2102. It shows
    CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controller:
    Product ID: 0xea61
    Vendor ID: 0x10c4 (Silicon Laboratories, Inc.)
    Version: 1.00
    Serial Number: 1205096541
    Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec
    Manufacturer: Silicon Labs
    Location ID: 0xfd110000
    Current Available (mA): 500
    Current Required (mA): 100
    So, the CP2102 is being recognized, but the driver (cu. and tty.) cannot be found (or possibly is not installed).
    I tied more things:
    1. Performed a Mac reset of SMC and PRAM, with no joy.
    2. Reinstalled Snow Leopard. Reinstalled the Si Labs driver package, and restarted. The CP2102 driver still does not show in the /dev directory (either as cu.CP2102... or tty.CP2102...).
    3. I looked in /System/Library/Extensions and found the SI Labs kernel extension SiLabsUSBDriver.kext. I decided I should perform an operation I read about, i.e. touch /System/Library/Extensions, and reboot. Still no joy.
    4. The System Profile still shows the same CP2102 entry.
    Silicon Labs indicated that some how, based on System Profile information, the Product ID was changed from 0xEA60 to 0xEA61, thus pointing to the USBXpress driver and not the VCP driver. Silicon Labs only has Windows PC tools to fix the Product ID problem, so they cannot help.
    Finally, I did some additional investigation to try to obtain more information. I moved my USB items around and looked in /dev. Here is what I observed (last boot of my Mac was 12:31 PM on 12/22 and the moving things around occurred at about 10:00 AM on 12/27):
    crw-rw-rw- 1 wheel 18, 3 Dec 22 12:31 cu.Bluetooth-Modem
    crw-rw-rw- 1 wheel 18, 1 Dec 22 12:31 cu.Bluetooth-PDA-Sync
    crw-rw-rw- 1 wheel 18, 17 Dec 27 10:00 cu.usbserial-FTCUSRHZ
    crw-rw-rw- 1 tty 15, 1 Dec 27 10:04 ptmx
    crw-rw-rw- 1 wheel 9, 0 Dec 27 10:04 random
    crw-rw-rw- 1 wheel 18, 2 Dec 22 12:31 tty.Bluetooth-Modem
    crw-rw-rw- 1 wheel 18, 0 Dec 22 12:31 tty.Bluetooth-PDA-Sync
    crw-rw-rw- 1 wheel 18, 16 Dec 27 10:00 tty.usbserial-FTCUSRHZ
    crw--w---- 1 tty 16, 0 Dec 27 10:04 ttys000
    There are a couple of devices that I cannot identify: ptmx, random, and ttys000. ttys000 is certainly out of place and I am wondering if it is the CP 2102 device. Its permissions certainly seem strange too (i.e. crw--w----) as well as its owner and group (tty and 16). In addition, the ptmx owner and group seem strange (tty and 15) as well. Just about everything else is owned by wheel or operator.
    Looking at /etc/group, there is no group = 15 and the group name for 16 is "group." Looking at /etc/passwd, the owner tty (whose owner number is 4) really points to _uucp (Unix to Unix copy protocol). All of this information seems a little strange.
    I would certainly like to get this driver installed properly, so I can talk to Davis device. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I have been told by Davis that the Product ID (PID) for the Mac is 0xEA60 and the PID for Windows is 0xEA61. To solve the problem on the Mac only, you apparently have to get a PC and connect to the Vantage Pro console with the PC. Then you have to perform the following steps to reprogram the PID using the PC using Windows:
    1. Install the USBXpress driver on the PC running Windows.
    2. Then run AN144SW "CP210xSetIDs.exe" with "CP210xManufacturing.dll" and change the PID from 0xEA61 to 0xEA60.
    3. Install the VCP driver on the Mac
    4. Now, the CP210x device is ready to be used on your Mac with the VCP driver.
    USBXpress: http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/USBXpress.aspx
    AN144SW: AN144SW
    http://www.silabs.com/Support Documents/Software/an144sw.zip
    The VCP driver is available for Mac OSX here:
    http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/USBtoUARTBridgeVCPDrivers.aspx
    If you run Parallels or VMware or another virtual system to run WeatherLink on Windows, in addition to running WeatherLink on the Mac, you need to perform the following additional step after Step 1 above (note that you do not need a PC, just use the Windows on the virtual machine for Steps 1-4 above and Step 1a below):
    1a. Install the VCP driver on the virtual machine for Windows.
    The VCP driver is available for Windows here:
    http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/USBtoUARTBridgeVCPDrivers.aspx
    Now, the CP2102 will re-enumerate on Windows under the virtual machine. You will see that Windows is now recognizing it as a Virtual COM port device instead of a USBXpress device. In addition, you should see the CP2102 (with PID = 0xEA60) on your Mac.
    Hope this information helps and solves the problem for all of us.

    What is the best USB powered portable 1TB hard drive for a macbook pro that allows Time machine to work, windows (thru Parallels software) and mac storage and is available in Australia?

    I agree with teh OWC sggestion above, but why must it be USB powered? I find that far more unreliable, and the low power devices slow.
    I'd frankly get a good external enclosure and buy a bare drive.  But the OWC stuff is quite good - vastly better than some of the majors (WD being aprime example of stuff that's boderline quality and often not compatible)

  • Network bridge problems linking wwan0 and eth0 [SOLVED]

    Hi There,
    I have just got working a 3G modem which appears as device wwan0. I am trying to link this interface to my wired ethernet eth0.
    wwan0 seems to work fine with network manager, getting a IP address via dhcp works just fine and I can use the interface.
    However, when I disable network manager and try to bring up the bridge with "netcfg up bridge" it times out, failing to get an lease with dhcp.
    My /etc/network.d/bridge file contains the following:
    INTERFACE="br0"
    CONNECTION="bridge"
    DESCRIPTION="Bridge wired and wireless connection"
    BRIDGE_INTERFACES="eth0 wwan0"
    IP="dhcp"
    #FWD_DELAY=10
    As per the wiki, I have tried using various values for FWD_DELAY (i.e 10 7 5,4,3,2,1,0) but nothing ..
    The relevant sections of /etc/rc.conf are:
    NETWORKS=(bridge)
    DAEMONS=( ... net-profiles !networkmanager ...)
    It seems that DHCP via networkmanager is the only way the interface gets an IP. I even tried "dhcpd br0" or "dhcpd wwan0" and they both time out.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Ok I have this working now, here are the steps I used.
    1. Allowed NetworkManager to setup the 3G Interface wwan0 with DHCP ..
    2. Disabled my eth0 interface from Networkmanager by putting an entry in /etc/Networkmanager/Networkmanager.conf
    3. Manually configured eth0 with a static IP of 192.168.0.1
    4. did the "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward" thing for IP forwarding
    5. did the following with iptables:
    iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o wwan0 -j MASQUERADE
    rc.d save iptables
    rc.d start iptables
    6. Connected my wireless router "wan" port to eth0 and configured for 192.168.0.2 IP address and DNS servers dished up from the network  ..
    ( .. looked at the entries in /etc/resolve.conf on the PC I am sharing the internet )
    I can then connect to my wireless lan with my other computers..and on to the internet ... yahoo .. :-)
    The only issue I have with this setup is getting the 3G interface to connect automatically to the network .. I ticked the box in networkmanager, but it doesn't seem to work
    if I reboot the PC or take the usb T stick out and plug back in, I have to manually connect to the network with networkmanager. Does anyone know how to do this automatically ..
    [edit] seems this is a known bug ... you can only auto connect when the interface power is set to "on", but stupidly it defaults to "off"
    Thanks,
    B.

    I'll guess that your MacBook connects wirelessly and that your player needs an Ethernet connection. In that case, in OS X 10.5 the way you'd do what you need to is to open the "Sharing" panel of System Preferences, then enable "Internet Sharing" by clicking on the checkbox next to it. Set "Share your connection from" to "AirPort" and below that check the box for Ethernet. The steps for OS X 10.6 are probably similar if not identical.

  • Creating Network Bridge in Windows 7 on wired port causes cable unplugged

    So I created a Microsoft Loopback interface and tried to create a Network Bridge in Windows 7 with the wired Ethernet port on my E7440 laptop.  But once the bridge is created and the interfaces added, the Ethernet port says 'cable unplugged'.  If I take the interface out of the bridge, it sits there for quite a while before it says it is active again.
    I'm pretty sure I have been able to do this on other PCs.  Is there something new here or a bug with this model?
    Thanks,
    Greg

    Hi Greg,
    I don't know of anything specific to the E7440 that would cause that problem.  I would think any security software, or hardware, would block pings to the loopback address, not report it as cable unplugged.  I just wonder if there is something with the driver that is causing it?  (Since it sounds like without the loopback that the NIC is functioning correctly). 
    The E7440 comes with Intel AMT for remote maintenance, but I wouldn't think it would block what you're trying to do.  And even if it did, then it still shouldn't give that media unplugged message.
    To be honest, these forums aren't the best place to get answers to this sort of question.  We try to do best possible support but this might be an issue where you need to contact Dell's Tech Support and speak to the software agents who are more experienced in advanced software support.  
    Sorry we couldn't be of more help to you.

  • What is the benefit of Using Data Adaptor

    Hello
    I wonder that What is the benefit of Using Data Adaptor ? I don't know TopLink Technology , inorder to using Data Adaptor I should know toplink but what is the advatages of using BPEL database adaptors in conditions thet I can make webservices by making plsql web services or exposing ADF application modules more easier?
    I think that if I use Data Adaptor (based of Toplink) I can use JTA feature for transaction managment , am I thinking Correct?
    for example I can invoke to webservice A and the B in BPEL process with two DB adaptores (by global transaction ) such that if A failes the process automatically roles back the B transaction without need that I manauly compensate the undo process
    please help me ?

    Thank you for your very useful comments about DB adapter
    I tried again and I have Successfully deploy and test my DB adapter with using # for parameter.
    But I have another question : We have ADF Application that using ADF bc for user data entry supporting in use case scenario , but we want to call web services (eg BPEL) in save operation instead of ADF application modules Normal commit !
    If we want using Data adapter for persist the Data that user entered by UI , we must write a lot of Insert or Update statements in DB adapter because of lot of database entities.
    How can we shorten this production scenario in our Project?
