Automation explore virtual SMU-1082

I have just ordered a PXI system of NOR and want to start programming while I wait for delivery. I thought that I could create virtual devices SMU to do this, but I could be wrong in my understanding of the MAX program.  While I have used LabVIEW for almost a decade, I never needed to use "measurement and Automation Explorer."

When I chose "create new" under "devices and interface" "Simules NOR-DAQmx..." ", I couldn't find the SMU-1082 chassis or the module(PXIe-8840) of base I will use.  Am I going about this all wrong?

Thank you for your help,

Ron

Hi Ron,

Unfortuantely, you will not be able to simulate a chassis SMU or controller in MAX. The SMU chassis will automatically identify in MAX when you plug on your computer, while some of our former PXI chassis will have to manually identify. If you want to simulate a chassis, you can simulate a PXI chassis and put your modules SMU simulated in it.

The good news is that you don't need to simulate a chassis in order to simulate a card. To simulate the 4304 to the MAX:

  1. Click devices and Interfaces

  2. Select create new...

  3. Select the simulated device NOR-DAQmx or modular Instrument

  4. You can search for 4304 and select the module.

I will note, the SMU-4304 is first supported in our driver NOR-DAQmx 15.1.1. If you have an older version of DAQmx installed, the device does not appear as an option in MAX.

  • Problem sending trigger software through backplane PXI (chassis SMU-1082, SMU-6363 DAQ, SMU-6544-HS-DIO)

    Dear community,

    I am trying to implement a background basket (software) PXI trigger on a chassis NI SMU-1082 with LabView 2015 (32-bit) running on an SMU-8135:

    HS-DIO (SMU-6544) in slot 2,

    -Acquisition of data (SMU-6363) into the Groove 4,

    -Flex RIO (SMU-7962R + OR-6583) in the Groove 3.

    The trigger schema is explained in the attached file ' LV-PXItrig-HSDIO-DAQ - overview.jpg ".

    Scenario 1: written DAQ analog signal and sends signals trigger HS-DIO (software) through bottom of basket, after East of waveform of the complete signals to DAQ for acquisition.

    Scenario 2: logical impulse on an external port HS-DIO triggers signals HS-DIO, after HS-DIO waveform is complete DAQ triggered for the acquisition of the ADC by the backplane.

    In principle this breaks down to send a trigger of module A to B by PXI backplane. The SMU-1082 chassis has a bus trip with 8 lines (PXI_trigX, X = 0,..., 7) more a trigger in Star controlled the slot 2.

    I've linked to implement a software trigger, but I can't access the refreshing resource and execution, see the attachment. Other ways of implementation including the DAQmx Terminal / routine disconnect Terminal have not worked for me either. I am aware about the connection of trigger using the node property VISA but I can't make a trigger.

    Tips, comments or solutions are appreciated. Thank you!

    For scenario 1, you want to trigger the HSDIO acquisition to begin as soon as the analog output DAQ starts?  You can use DAQmx Export Signal to send the trigger for the start of one of the lines from the Trig PXI backplane. Then, you need to configure your HSDIO acquisition to use a trigger digital beginning on the same line of trigger. Take a look at the example of the "Dynamic hardware generation start trigger" in the Finder of the example (help > find examples)

    For scenario 2, looks like you do a dynamic unit HSDIO generation when a digital trigger arrives on one of the PFI lines. Once the build is complete, you want to send a trigger for the DAQ hardware to begin sampling. If this is the case, you again use a trigger to start material in your task of NOR-HSDIO, as you did for scenario 1, but use external trig line as the source, rather than the bottom of basket. There is no case of material when the build is finished, but you can use a marker in script mode event instead. The example of the Generation with dynamic event marker' in the example Finder gives a good starting point for this type of operation. You'll want to set the output terminal for the event to be a line of backplane trig, and then tap the DAQmx to start on the same line trig trigger.

  • How to uninstall corrupted NI Measurement & Automation Explorer?

    Hello

    I have problem to install LabView 2012 and all components, cos does not properly uninstall my version previous (2012).

    I have LabView_Fall_2012 and NI_Device_Drivers_August2012 and Win7 x 64. (try to install it on a partition not OS).

    Now when I try to install new I get "OR Measurement & Automation Explorer 5.3 (superior version already installed)" and installation stops there.

    My goal is to set everything up if possible to properly uninstall and then reinstall it. Now I have managed to remove most of the files, reg entries and stopping services, but some things are still left.

    What can I do for that Setup to deal with?

    Its possible to remove all the files/reg manually?

    There is a file that cannot be deleted ' C:\Program Files (x 86) \National Instruments\Shared\mDNS Responder\nimdnsNSP.dll ", its possible to remove it?

    Thanks a lot for your help

    IMHO, there are two options:

    1. try to reinstall 5.4 MAX, download here

    2. the STI DLL used by the LV you update tool can remove it using this tool: Unlocker

  • Features Windows Lab SMU-1082

    I work in the lab of Windows (so please don't give me all the answers Lab View).

    I have a utility Windows Lab that I support, and I'm doing work on the SMU-1082. We will control the SMU with a MXIe (SMU-8360) connected to a PC.

    One thing I want to do check if the SMU-1082 is connect (or my computer is running it on an ordinary PC).

    I have serached the forums and can't find anything.

    I can not even find any funcitons that can query the SMU box to check something like maps in particular slots (I thought if I ould read if a card is present in a slot, I might be able to use something like this to determine if I was running with the SMU box!)

    Hello Ken,

    If you have downloaded the API NEITHER of System Configuration:

    http://www.NI.com/download/NI-system-configuration-5.5/4086/en/

    You can run the example CVI "ShowAllHardware.prj."  From the finder of the example, it is on "Hardware input and output-->--> ShowAllHardware.prj System Configuration."  If you run this project and choose "localhost" when it asks you to enter the host name, you will get a list of all the devices connected to your machine.  One listed is the MXI Express card that you use to connect to the chassis.

    I hope this helps a bit!

    Happy holidays!

  • Cannot open Control Panel Test VISA in Measurement & Automation Explorer

    With the help of Visa OR Measurement & Automation Explorer. Select the devices and Interfaces and select my device. The Test Visa Open Panel is grayed out and is not available.

    Hi David,

    I'm glad that you solved. It could be that the library file has been installed, but that it was somehow lost and unable to be found by measurement and Automation Explorer. A massive compilation could have located this file and placed in the expected folder. I'm curious to know if you did a search system for the library file? I know you have talked about doing one for the file in the document I linked to you. Whatever it is, I'm glad that you were able to get this working.

    Have a great day!

  • NEITHER Measurement & Automation Explorer 5.0 (superior version already installed)

    I have downloaded the driver NOR-DAQmx 9.4, but when I try to install it I get the message:

    Cannot install

    o OR Measurement & Automation Explorer 5.0 (superior version already installed)

    What does that mean? I have LabVIEW 2012 (Windows), version 12.0, 64 bit.

    Thank you

    Neil

    I think what is happening is that DAQmx is installed correctly, but the installer also try to install an older version of Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX), which is what causes the error.

    You can check that DAQmx has been properly installed by opening MAX and check if it is listed on the software tab on the left.

    One thing to keep in mind is that 9.4 DAQmx is not compatible with LabVIEW 2012, so you can just upgrade to the latest version of DAQmx, which is 9.6 and is compatible with LabVIEW 2012.

  • LabVIEW Measurement & Automation Explorer very slow

    Hi all

    Here is my setup of the system and the version of LAbView:

    • [LabView professional Development System - Version 11.0 - 32-bit]
    • OPERATING SYSTEM - windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit SP1 [MS]
    • CPU - [Intel Core i7-2600 processor 3.40 GHz]
    • MEMORY - [16.0 GB RAM]
    • GPU - [NVIDIA GeForce GT 530]
    • OR PXI-7951R & NOR 5761

    Everything works absolutely fine until yesterday. All of a sudden, everything about LabView is very slow. Send commands to run the stepper motor and even check on Measurement & Automation Explorer. There have been major changes in the updates or removing software from National Instruments. Everything is intact. My antivirus is AVG (which is a recent change after I removed mcaffee, but I don't think that's maybe the reason).

    any kind of advice is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Add or change your antivirus/firewall can have a major effect on LabVIEW and related products, because they can potentially block your network connections. MAX scans your network for remote devices.

    I also had a problem a while back where my Firewall blocked access to shared variables. The following instructions helped me: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361G-01/lvhowto/createditlogosxt/ (I don't think this affects the MAX, but I mention this in case you encounter a similar problem)

  • How to set the Date and time on a remote target in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX)?

    Hello

    I'm trying to follow the steps described in the following link:

    How to set the Date and time on a remote target in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX)?

    It is said

    The software on the target currently supports only the time zoneand deletes the old files?

    I need set the date and time

    and remove all the old unwanted files

    the calendar was gray does not allow me to change the current date.

    Anyone know how to change

    Hi all!

    According to this the below Knowledge Base article, Remote Configuration System Support must be installed on the target for time settings to change in MAX.

    http://digital.NI.com/public.nsf/allkb/FAB0EC4D6E5EE0F386257738005733A3?OpenDocument&MeTC=max_MAXDat...

    If you don't know what version of the system supported remote Configuration software that you have installed on your device target, it is likely that it is not yet installed. Add this software by clicking below your target to the MAX software option and selecting "Add/Remove Software". This is where you will install the System Configuration Remote Support software.

  • How capture and save a sequence continues to images using NI 1422 LVDS card capture, through Measurement & Automation Explorer?

    It is possible to capture and record a sequence of images with a LVDS OR 1422 EZMaker using Measurement & Automation Explorer?  Everything is installed correctly and running and I am able to use the "Snap" command to save an image, as well as the 'Grab' command, but it seems that you must stop the dump command before you can save anything, and it only allows you to save the final image.  Is there a way to record a sequence that is being caught, or should I use LabVIEW or other additional software to do this?

    Kind regards

    James S.

    Hello James,.

    You will need to LabVIEW or another environment development in order to record a sequence of images. If you have LabVIEW and the Acquisition of Vision software, you will be able to capture and save images in an AVI file. There are examples that come with the Acquisition of Vision software that can do this.

    I hope this helps.

  • The measurement and Automation Explorer is completely empty. No idea why?

    Hello

    When I open Measurement & Automation Explorer, there is nothing in the main boxes, boxes are completely empty. The top toolbar with file/Edit/tools is there, but all that is empty.

    I had good success with the SCXI-1000 chassis in a few years when I did further research at another University. At my new University, it gave me access to an SCXI-1000 chassis with an SCXI-1600 module to connect to the computer via USB. I reinstalled windows on an old computer to 64-bit, had the hand of the entire system, the Measurment and Autiomation Explorer open as expected, then was that NEITHER ceased support for the SCXI-1600 on a Win 7 Pro 64-bit modules. So, I've divided the hard drive into two partitions, installed Win 7 Pro 32 bit and reinstalled NOR then installed the updates for a few hours.

    When I try to turn on measurement and Automation Explorer, there is nothing in the window. What can I do to get the various boxes? I went to tools > reset Configuration data.

    Nicholas,

    I recently saw a similar problem on another post. This person has received the exact same blank screen because Windows Firewall has blocked MAX (nimax.exe). Try turning off your firewall temporarily and then see if MAX runs. If so, you will need to add an exception in your firewall settings. If this isn't the case, you could have operated in a corrupted installation and the need to do a repair.

    I have a PCI-6602, in a PC that is running windows 7 Home premium and it appearing not not in the Device Manager and as a result measurement and Automation Explorer.  What is strange, is that I don't see either the PCIe-6535.
