Windows 8 and Labview 2013 FPGA

I installed Labview 2013 including the FPGA design suite on a Windows 8 (x64) host. I was surprised to see Windows 8 on the list of supported OS as I was aware that up to this day no Xilinx design suite supported Windows 8.
But as a matter of fact it didn't took long before I hit:
ERROR: Simulator:861 - Failed to link the design
following this tutorial while clicking on check syntax (using one of the VHDL file provided with the tutorial). The error is clearly linked to a lack of Windows 8 compatibility from the XIlinx tools running underneath. Is there a known workaround? Thanks.
Solved!

That I could do but Linux is not listed here ... but Windows 8 is listed as supported for the farm server and not for the development environment. Isn't is the other way around? On top of that it looks like we should read GB instead of MB for the farm toolkit.

  • How to implement a dual booting PXI system using windows 7 and labview RT

    Good Day
    My name is Mariano Ocana from the University of Manitoba, and I want to implement a dual system using windows 7 and labview RT in a PXIe-1082 chassis with a PXIe-8102 embedded controlled (the chassis came with windows 7 installed). What are the steps to use both systems (windows and RT)  in the same chassis?, in the NI help comes an example implementing a dual system using windows xp and RT, it is the same procedure?.
    Thank you in advance for all your help.
    Regards
    M. Ocana

    Greetings, Mariano.
    The real issue you have to contend with is whether or not you have a LabVIEW RT license.  If the 8102 controller was purchased Windows-Only, you likely do not have a license to run LabVIEW RT on the controller - you can purchase one, I think it's about $500, and at that point you can request a LabVIEW RT Configuration CD (that's not what it's called, but the sales guy will know what I'm talking about).  The Config CD is a CD that will partition your controller correctly with both FAT32 and NTFS filesystems (in the appropriate way) to allow you to run Windows 7 and LabVIEW Real-Time on the controller correctly.  Once done, you can then switch within the BIOS between LabVIEW Real-Time and Windows in order to dual-boot.  
    Either way, you likely need to contact NI sales to either purchase an RT license (if one was not received at the time of purchase) or to request a Configuration CD (it might also be called a dual-boot install CD or similar).

  • NI-Fieldpo​int support in Windows 7 and LabView 8.6

    We have a "classic" FieldPoint system with an ethernet controller. We want to be able to read/write from/to the FieldPoint network using a computer with LabView 8.6 and Window 7. Is NI-FieldPoint supported in LabView 8.6 and Windows 7?

    Hi natewkidd,
    I feel like there is some confusion between the operating systems running on a development machine (like Windows 7) and the real-time operating systems that run on our real-time controllers (like the FP-2000). I will do my best to clear up this confusion by first answering your questions.
    1) What is the difference between LabView Real-Time 2009 and LabView 2009?
    LabVIEW Real-Time 2009 is actually a software package officially known as the LabVIEW 2009 Real-Time Module that is installed after the LabVIEW 2009 development software to allow the user to develop and deploy real-time applications to real-time targets such as your FP-2000. You can think of the LabVIEW 2009 Real-Time Module almost as a plug-in for LabVIEW 2009 to allow for real-time application development and deployment.
    2) If I have a FP-2000 on the ethernet network and want to use a computer running Windows 7 and LabView 2009 to record and display data, will I still be able to communicate with the FieldPoint network using the FieldPoint Read/Write VIs from my Windows 7 machine?
    If you were just going to use the FP-2000 as a network module (NOT deploying a real-time application to run on the FP-2000 itself), you should be able to communicate with it using just the FieldPoint Read/Write VIs from your Windows 7 machine with LabVIEW 2009 and the NI-FieldPoint 6.0.5 driver. In this situation, you actually do not need the Real-Time Module since you are not deploying the application to the real-time target.
    Regarding the FP-2000 not being supported beyond LabVIEW 8.5.1, this is because the memory on the controller is not large enough to hold the software that is installed on the controller with LabVIEW 8.6.x Real-Time Module and the LabVIEW 2009 Real-Time Module. For more information on this please check out this KnowledgeBase article.
    I hope this is helpful! Let me know if you have any further questions.
    Thank you for choosing National Instruments.

  • Creative suite 4 and 5.5 compatable with Windows 8 and Office 2013?

    We have both Creative Suite 4 and a few CS5.5.  One classroom will be moving to Windows 8 and Office 2013 this Summer term.  Will either of these suites work or will we need to upgrade to CS6?

    The only honest answer: You won't know until you try. Generally they will/ should be compatible, but you may require dealing with legacy issues like printer compatibility or thne installer not finding specific folders as well as al lthe usual - security stuff, user privileges, network stuff in shared environements. you would face some of those issues even with CS6 or CC, so it's irrelevant to get a new version until there are real hard reasons beyond these issues. They can all be resolved, it may just take some fiddling and lots of patience.

  • Installing Windows ADK and MDT 2013 without Internet

    Hi
    I have Windows 8.1 Update 64 bit
    on a computer without Internet.
    I would like to install Windows ADK
    and MDT 2013. What's the proper procedure to
    do this?
    Thanks
    Bye
    Balubeto

    You need to download the pieces from an internet-connected machine.  They can they be copied (USB or whatever) to any machine, even those without an internet connection, to do an installation.
    To get the necessary ADK pieces, download ADKSETUP.EXE and run it on the internet-connected machine.  It will offer an option to download all the rest of the ADK pieces (make sure you select the right components) into a folder you specify.
    The MDT installation is a single MSI file.

    (see the right-up picture that is the needle in the right side, but the right-down picture it is in the left side.)
    The right-up picture that is the current snap image shows normally.
    The right-down picture is after en-queued and de-queued image.
    But the image will be 1 % Randenly Chance to show right and left inverse.
    Could someone tell me how to solve the problem?

  • Report Generation Toolkit failure with Win 7 and Labview 2013

    I recently had my computer updated to Windows 7 and am now seeing a problem with the Report Generation toolkit (version 2013) when working with Excel files.  If I try to run the New Report.vi with report type Excel selected I get  error -2146777998.  Doing the same thing with Word selected eventually opens Word, although this takes about ten seconds, but it does not generate an error.  Selecting Standard Report or HTML also run without errors.
    I've researched this error on line but I keep ending up .NET and C# forums where everything goes over my head. Has anybody got any suggestions?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I found the solution to this particular source of error code -2146777998. There are two template files that reside in C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2013\templates\Report  by the name of MSOffice_RGT_Template.dot and MSOffice_RGT_Template.xlt.  The problem came down to that these templates got corrupted somehow during the fresh install. As soon as I replaced them with versions from another machine the problem disappeared.
    Just as a side note, I discovered the problem by kicking off the MS Office Report Express vi and out came a much clearer message that aimed me at the templates. Not quite sure why that message isn't echoed into the individual subvi's on the pallette, but life is a mystery.

  • NI-USRP 14.0 driver ,and labview 2013 64 bit

    Hi
    Is it possible to use the NI-USRP 14.0 (64 bit driver)  with Labview 2013 64 bit ?
    have someone tried to install  NI-USRP 14.0 drivers and then convert the driver ("instr.lib \niUSRP" directory) back to 2013 version ?
    or do i need to purchase the 2014 version if i want to run 64 bit labview & USRP?
    Thanks

    Hi again
    i installed the 32 bit verision of niusrp 14.0 driver (selected to install  the driver for labview 2013 ,32 bit version)
    & copied the installed files from 32 bit labview directories to the 64 bit version directories
    , when opening a usrp vi (like "open rx session.vi" ) it says :
    "error loading "niusrp.dll" A dynamic link library (DLL) initalization routine failed.
    if i then try to point to another niusrp.dll like the one placed at C:\windows\SysWOW64\   , i got :
    " the library selected is not valid for the current platform. for example ,you are running 64 bit labview and the library might be a 32 bit library"
    where can i find the "right" niusrp.dll ?
    so it seems that the niusrp 14.0 driver does not support labview 2013 64 bit version, ?

  • Window glitch in LabVIEW 2013

       My customer just complained about this.  I first told him it was a problem with the video driver on his computer, then I saw the same thing on my computer.  Since we just moved from LV 2012 to 2013, I'm wondering if this is a glitch in LabVIEW.
       The problem is that when a window is set to not show the menu bar and the toolbar (or even just one of them) when running, the title bar does not collapse down to the top of the remainin window as it should, but remains up where it is when the VI is in edit mode.  The extra pixels near the top of the window are then filled in with pixels from whatever was on your Windows desktop behind the VI.  I've taken a screen shot of an example.  In it, you can see the dark blue title bar "MICAS Configuration Editor".  The light blue background below that is what is supposed to appear.  The grey with green plusses and another greyed-out MICAS Configuration Editor title bar is stuff from behind the window that is filling in the extra pixels.
       Any idea where this is coming from or how to get rid of it?
    Thanks,

       Well, the problem still exists.  Here are a few more observations:
       - The graphics error occurs on my development machine (W7-64) in both source code and as an executable.
       - The same executable moved to an XP machine does also exhibit the problem.
       - I just updated to LV 2013 SP1, which was just released.  The problem still exists in source code.  It also still exists after rebuilding the VI as an executable with LV2013-SP1.
       Given all of the above, I went ahead and stripped the VI down to its minimum.  The attached zip includes the main VI and just one dependency, and .ctl.  This VI still shows the problem on my development machine.  Can someone else try running it and seeing if they see the issue?
       Again, this same VI, with no changes that I can currently recall, did not have this problem under LV 2012.

  • Convert PXIe-8135 controller to dual-boot Windows 7 and LabVIEW RT

    Hello. I have a PXIe-8135 controller that originally was just running Windows 7. We are trying to convert it to a dual boot system to also run LabView Real Time. (There is host computer that will run LabVIEW 2014 with the RT module, and the controller will become a target).
    I have created a FAT32 partition on the hard drive of the controller. Now, I’m trying to install the real-time OS with a USB flash drive made using the MAX utility, but I cannot boot using the USB drive for some reason. I keep getting the message “waiting for USB device to initialize”.  
    In BIOS, legacy USB support is [ENABLED] and boot configuration is set to [Windows/other OS]. I’ve tried removing the drive, waiting, and reinserting. I’ve tried two different USB drives (both 8 GB, different brands).
    I’m not sure what to do next. Apart from the USB boot issue, is converting the PXIe-8135 even possible?  I read about SATA/PATA hard drive issues with older controllers, but I don't know about this one.
    Thanks, in advance, for your help!

    Solved!

    Per Siana's licensing comment, more information on purchasing a deployment license if you do not have one for this target can be found here.
    The RT Utility USB key is used to set up non-NI hardware with LabVIEW Real-Time, but you should not need it in this situation to convert to dual-boot (*). Try this:
    1. Since you already have a FAT32 partion created, go into BIOS setup and change to booting 'LabVIEW RT'.
    2. The system will attempt to boot LabVIEW RT, see that the partition is empty, and switch over into LabVIEW RT Safe Mode. (this safemode is built into the firmware, which is why you don't really need the USB key).
    3. The system should come up correctly and be detectable from MAX, and you can proceed with installing software.
    4. To switch back to Windows, go back to BIOS setup and choose 'Windows/Other OS'
    (*) One area where the USB key is helpful on a dual boot system is with formatting the disk. If you want to convert from FAT32 to Reliance on the partition designated for LabVIEW RT, the USB key lets you attempt to format a single parition and leave the rest of the disk untouched. If you format from MAX, the standard behavior is to format only one RT partition if found, but if not found, it will format the entire disk.  Formatting from MAX on a dual boot system is consequently riskier and you could lose your Windows partition.
