caliing workstation in LabVIEW

Hello

Using ActiveX, I use windows media player in LabVIEW. Is there any function ActiveX or any other palette that can be used for exploring 'My Computer'

Using vi LIST OF FILES, I can view the folders and files from a disk. But I want another way

  • LabVIEW Interface for installation of the Arduino

    I want to install the LabVIEW Interface for Arduino Toolkit, so I can control an Arduino Uno R3.  Say the instructions to download and install the VIPM and then you can download and install the Toolkit through the VIPM.  The only problem is that workplace of our company doesn't have access to the internet for security reasons, so the VIPM will not be able to download the Toolkit.  How can I download manually the Toolbox for a laptop without LabVIEW, save it on a usb key, then install manually on the workstation with LabVIEW?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I asked the very question sometime back and here is the answer I received. I decided to use another computer on the network for the work of the Arduino, so I never tried what was suggested.

    Let us know how it turns out.

  • Collect and display data from several workstations

    Currently, the data in the CSV format locally on several workstations running Labview and the format of the recorded data is the same for each workstation. Data are recorded roughly every 2 minutes at each station and at different times.

    Computers of these stations are connected network but no saves a copy of their files CSV to the server that I know is not ideal, but a part of memory original.  What is now there that a computer on the network brings together these data by workstations and then the poster showing trends in workstations etc. in graphic format and possibly Excel.

    What I'm looking for is some advice on the best way forward.

    I looked at shared variables as a possible solution, but it is work stations send their respective data to the 'central' PC or this PC "questions" workstations that seems inefficient.

    Another thought was using Active X workstations to write in an Excel file running on the "central" PC

    Finally thought that workstations have record their findings to a server and then 'central' PC to access that data, it brings together and then displays the results combined.

    There are several things that remains to be clarified.

    • All LabVIEW programs, individual data record data in the same format and the same number of data points?
    • Record all programs of LabVIEW at exactly the samerate?
    • Are all data on a be saved in a single file of the Machine, or each reading (at intervals of 2 minutes) in a separate file?
    • You are trying to combine data from different machines such that it is collected or after the entire collection was done, and all files have been written?
    • Another that the timestamp of the data file, is there a "time stamp" in (all) the individual data files?
    • If you assume that the data of different machines are more synchronized, you have in mind a way to combine the different readings of the time?  What happens if they are sufficiently different that, say, the Machine has 20 readings more (because it started much earlier) than other PCs?
    • If the machines are not saving at the same rate, how will handle you that?

    A single method, you might consider is to write a program that works on any network connected PC, including a no participate in the recording of data.  For simplicity, assume that each machine "participatant" starts at around the same time, saves exactly at the same rate, written a single data file and has already closed.  If the program "Combining" knows where all data files (because he knows the name of each machine and the location of the file on each machine), it can open all the files, collect all the data and treat it but want to (including a 'combined Excel workbook"writing with a spreadsheet separate for each PC, or combining them all on one sheet).  Just decide what you want to do in the context of the issues raised above.

  • gpibprt compilation error. Ko

    Installation program:

    Using redhat enterprise 5 on a dell 64-bit workstation.  LabVIEW 8.6 Professional fresh install.

    I need to get NIVISA running/configured to communicate with instruments to test on a local network using a VXI - 11.

    Didn't have not a GPIB - all communication/control will be on a LAN/TCPIP.

    Problem:
    Impossible to run utilities VISA because the gpibprtk.ko module is not found.

    Forums to search, this seems to be a matter of 64 bit / 32 bit.  UpdateNIDriver running and watching me do this output:

    ..........

    Failed to update the drivers of National Instruments.

    ...........

    It would seem that the module is 32-bit and will not be a link to a 64-bit kernel.  I'm not the expert on the compilation and link, but the link

    error seems to be the central problem - no link = no module only = no workie.

    So, I guess I need this add-on charge to get my VXI-11/LAN stuff to work even if I don't use a GPIB - not least the hardware interface.

    I've attached the output to updateNIDriver for reference.  All software from the CD - workstation doesn't have external access - although I can 'Sandalenet' of things on the system.

    Any help appreciated.  I'm a little google on at this stage.

    Thank you

    Steve.

    Sammy,

    Thanks for the reply.  I was able to solve the problem, as shown below (post of the linux users group).  I had also posted the question in the Group of linux users.  I've marked as answered it, but I forgot to delete it here.  In any case, I found that you need to install BOTH versions updated to NIVISA and NI488, so I ran updateNIDriver to compile the module.  Who could have redundent, but the updateNIDriver returns the results to the terminal so I can see is it compiled, or wrong on.

    Steve.

    --------------------------------------------

    Update #2.

    I downloaded and installed ni4882 - 2.5.4 b 1 - version.tar.gz.  This contained the source for ni488k.ko who compiled and installed OK.

    Interactive utility of VISA can now talk to a LXI instrument on the local network, so it seems that we are upward

    I guess the new version of NI-VISA now ni488k.ko calls to load if not there rather than gpibprtk.ko.

    I would have thought the pilot would have been included in the package of NI-VISA 64 bit ISO updated because I think it's orginal source 488 files came from, but apparently, you need both - perhaps because the 488 driver is still in beta?

    So it turns out that I answered my own question - installing updates, but I leave here in case, it is useful to someone else.

    Since the workstation is autonomous, automagic editing approach is not an option - the old way to read the msg of error and resolve is needed here:.

  • Workstation HP Z230: how to disable NVIDIA NVS 315 to use integrated DP and DVI ports

    My HP Z230 workstation was equipped with Windows 7 and an NVIDIA NVS 315 video card.  This card works satisfactorily; However, I recently acquired a monitor Asus PB287Q Ultra high definition (4K), capable of a resolution of 3840 X 2160 pixels.  The NVIDIA card DVI by default generates a graph of the 1920 x 1200 resolution. Therefore, I can't take full advantage of the ability of 4K of my new monitor.

    I tried to uninstall the NVIDIA card to force the PC to recognize the video hardware on the motherboard, but none of the monitors connected to the RFP or DVI ports displays video information.  In other words, my PC recognizes that the NVIDIA card (when connected) and nothing else.

    What should I do?  I'm a LabVIEW programmer and a 4K display is a tool powerful graphics-oriented environments.  Thank you for your help.

    Thanks for your reply, Paul.  I tried what you mentioned, but could not get DP working out until I went to the HP Driver download site and downloaded the Z230 Intel graphics drivers: http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=5367828 & swLangOid = 8 & swEnvOid = 4060

    Now I have a total of 5 outputs (2 DP and 3 DVI) video! I don't have to remove the NVIDIA cards and I full resolution 4K on the outputs video of DP!  Can not be more happy with my output video.  Now the problem is to convince my supervisor that five monitors high resolution are better than one (not-a-chance).  :-)  Once again, thank you.

  • LabVIEW for linux (Ubuntu 64-bit)

    University of Helsinki uses a centralized managed linux installation on all linux workstations.  The distribution is based on Ubuntu 9.10, and it is considering moving to 10.04 LTS.  Almost all of the facilities are 64-bit, only a few old machines (> 5 years of age) are still using 32-bit installation.

    In the Physics Department, there are about 500 machines and about 30% of those who are linux workstations.  We strive to get LabVIEW for Linux installed on our desktop, then run under Ubuntu 64-bit.

    1 problem (not a problem): For some strange reason, the installation media does not CD/DVD use normal files (iso9660) system, but the media is formatted with the file system "Mac OS X HDF +".  It works under linux, of course, but has been a source of mild confusion.  It would be wise to change the normal file system to the next version.

    2nd problem: The installation under Ubuntu does not work.  Namely:

    First I mount the media with the "mount-t hfsplus/dev/sr0/media/cdrom0" and try running the installation script
    CD/media/cdrom0/Linux/labview-2009
    sudo knew
    . / INSTALL

    Installation is not going smoothly.  According to the error message, the script is not found the library libbz2:

    / Media/cdrom0/Linux/LabVIEW-2009/bin/rpmq: error while loading shared libraries: libbz2.so.1: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory

    However, the library is in standard place:
    $ ls/lib/libbz2 *.
    /lib/libbz2.so.1 /lib/libbz2.so.1.0 /lib/libbz2.so.1.0.4

    I know, "support of the distribution" list only include Mandriva, RedHat, and SUSE.  The version of LabVIEW is the latest version of the fall of 2009.  Does anyone have any ideas what to try next?

    see you soon,

  • LabVIEW account crashes with a Windows user but not another

    I am facing the following problem:

    When my colleague is connected with her Windows user account and start my main VI (the startup process is long enough, because many LVOOP classes are instantiated dynamically) LabVIEW, LabVIEW block eventually (that is, the process of LabVIEW just end itself witout new order). The log file down LV (see attached file for more details) contains the following interesting line:

    c:\builds\penguin\labview\branches\2010\dev\source\linker\HeapLinker.cpp(372): DWarn: double object (0x1e07444c) in 1229150280 Ref for [LinkIdentity 'XSettings.xctl' [workstation]

    XSettings.xctl is an XControl I did, which is part of a façade of a class LVOOP method which is loaded dynamically into a school of my main VI.

    Oddly enough, this problem will NOT occur when I'm connected with my own Windows user account.

    Details: LV2010 SP1 32-bit; 64-bit Windows; We have all two administrator accounts.

    Does anyone have a tip how this problem could be solved?

    Mass of compilation of the affected class LVOOP solved the problem.

  • Windows 7 takes 15 min to start after installing Labview 2012

    Hello

    I need help on this, is this a bug?

    The problem is that on my laptop after installing Labview 2012, it takes about 15 minutes to start, this happens every time a restart or start my laptop.

    At first I thought something with my laptop, but then my colleague also installed Labview 2012 on his laptop and has exactly the same problem, the difference is that his new laptop and is running windows 7 Professional 64-bit, mine is older and is currently running windows 7 32-bit professional.

    I tried to disable the services NOR, but has not solved the problem, but when I disable all windows services that start at startup, the startup is fast.

    Also note that I had Labview 2011 installed before and I didn't have this problem before.

    Tried also to find something in the registry, but nothing.

    Any who have this problem, or a solution to this?

    Thanks in advance

    This problem seems to be resolved, but then he come back again a few days later

    I did many tests in my laptop and found it to be in the "Service of Network Store Interface" service (INS). Disabling this service, you have your problem solved, but there is another problem, you lose the network.
    This happens because the "DHCP Client" service depends on the national statistical institutes.

    Also, this issue seems to occur only when the PC is in a domain and I'm in a windows server (Windows SBS2008) domain.

    Then I found that if you set manual this services which depend on national institutes of statistics (DHCP Client, DNS Client, IP Helper, network connections, local awareness network) and also put INS manual
    You must also disable the "Workstation" service that also depends on national institutes of statistics (why turn off? Because there are 3 services that depend on the workstation service, they will require to start, and then it will force NSIS to start, then long boot, if you really need of the dependent services on workstation, do the same as for them)
    Not also need uncheck this services in msconfig window if they are checked, and then the PC will boot normally without a network.

    When you start, you should go to services and start the DHCP Client for the network (and the other if you really need)
    This will force also NSIS to start and other services that depend on the national statistical institutes.
    The first time the PC restarts, you may need to reset these services to manual in the services window, I had to do, and then in sebsequent boots, they have been already set to manual
    If you leave right on the dependent services in automatic or automatic (delayed start) it will force NSIS to run and start time will go to + - 15 min

    Because you must manually start "DHCP Client" for the network, here's a solution to do it automatically after have connected you:
    1 - Go to control panel, and then open administrative tools
    Task 2-open Scheduller
    3. on the right click "Creat fundamental task.
    4. in the first window give a name ("DHCP" for example) and press next
    5 - Click on "When I Logon" and press next
    6 - click on "Start a program", and then press next
    7. in the "program/script" insert: net
    8. in the "Arguments" insert: start "DHCP Client".
    9 - Press 'Finish' and you're done

  • Excel 2007 to carry forward when called LabVIEW v9 in Windows 7

    I'm building a dual system using LabView and Excel 2007 v9, Windows 7.  The original system used Windows XP, Excel 2007, and LabView v8.6.  The problem is that the original system has been able to bring forward to Excel when it is called LabVIEW by using the node property - application-> visible.  This new configuration is running Excel, loads the data, run macros, but does not Excel forward.  The icon flashes in the bar of tasks Win7 and when selected displays at the top of LabView.  If I reduce the window of Labview, Excel is here.  This brings me to the conclusion that Excel is visible, as requested but will not come forward until this that selected in the taskbar.  The only differences, not to mention the versions, is used the extension .xls in model of original system files was performed in Excel in compatibility mode.  At the request of customers, the new system uses on model files Excel .xlsm extension.  I tried to use 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 a problem with Windows 7 and the latest version of Labview.

    SFM - dss says:

    I'll try the windowstate change.  Were these done successively? (i.e., property node-> property-> property node node) Or have they done along the way like the open call ActiveX and a property node then in a spreadsheet etc editing area, so there was some time between calls?

    I just use something like this in any place where I normally just would make excel visible. Works for me on Win7 x 64 even though I don't really know why.

    On Windows XP, I never had no problem with just using the visible property, with a change unique windowstate or even without one.

  • How convert the string in enum by using LabVIEW 7.0

    I learned LabVIEW 8.6, but here at work, so we must use the Solaris workstations built in 95, the more advanced version of LV they will work is version 7.0.  On LV8.6, it was very to change a string to an enum using the format 'text' vi.  On LV7.0, is not available.  I made my own conversion from type vi with a structure of the case, but this is very annoying, because every time I add an element to the enum, I must add something to this vi.  I added the verification code so there is a warning if I add to the enum, but don't forget to update of the conversion of the vi errors.  Is it possible to reproduce the "text format" vi, using LV7.0?

    The analysis of primitive string will do the job in LV7.0.  Its a darn good idea to create a control of the enum type-def you use! If the constant and the witness are instances of your type definition, when you change the control (add, delete, rename, swap values) you can press the button to change to apply and PRESTO all your commands, constants and indicators that use the def type are updated with new info.

  • Register the event on the target in real time using LabVIEW 2012

    Hi all,

    It seems that LabVIEW 2012 RT does not support user events. Screws are not in the range of function and the help of LabVIEW says that it is not supported. In LabVIEW 2010, everything seems fine.

    That's happened? We need this feature.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Thank you very much. We will use this workaround, which is not a lot of work if you know what to do. Develop a VI on workstation and the execution of switching left target to the low edge also implements the correct block as well as feature diagram objects.

    This can be fixed in the next patch-Patch because a lot of users could by irritated by this behavior?

  • Installing TB31.3.0 on a W8.1 workstation; I want to delete the messages on the user agent of TB, but prevent deletion on the server. Where is the switch? When to install

    Hello!

    I have already installed a TB user agent on my workstation 'primary': I can create, read, and DELETE messages ON the workstation and the server.
    I want now to install a user of TB on a "secondary" workstation agent, where I can create, read and DELETE messages on the workstation. But I don't want the secondary workstation to delete messages on the server. (In short: I want that the function "delete" ONLY allowed to my primary workstation).
    Is this possible? Where is the switch ON / OFF? (For example, this feature is available on the agent on my WindowsPhone).
    When I install it?

    Thanks for your support!

    Using Thunderbird on your second workstation - the only option would be to create a Pop email account
    so before you download anything, you must configure the account settings to "leave a copy on the server.

    Tools > account settings > account for Pop mail server settings.
    or
    Menu icon > Options > account settings > server settings

    • Letter: look for the e-news at startup
    • Letter: arrival of new messages every xx minutes
    • Select: automatically download new messages
    • Letter: Leave messages on the server '
    • Click OK

    E-mail POP accounts can only download the mail from the Inbox server.
    This will allow you to remove off the coast of the secondary workstation and leave it on the server.
    However, Pop cannot see or download other folders on the server: IMAP only can see other folders these are read remotely. But in IMAP because records are a same as server, removing in TB will remove also off server.

  • After the Server 5.1.5 upgrade network user cannot connect by most workstations

    Hi all

    Intro

    I upgraded one of my client of 10.6.8 Xserve server at El Capitan / app 5.1.5 server.

    The server is configured with the network homefolders and mobile homefolders. We also use PCS. The 10.6.8 configuration has worked perfectly and still doesn't work. But now it is time to move on.

    The upgrade process from was relatively smooth. I had to configure the interface network again, then check DNS (front / back) and I also had to re - install the SharePoint, including network sharepoint (via AFP) houses.

    Problem:

    Then, I started to test the connection as users of the network on client computers. I found that it was not possible to connect from most client computers.

    After entering the login credentials was refused immediately. As is the case when entering the incorrect credentials.

    On client computers, nothing has changed.

    Client computers running Yosemite 10.10.5 and some are running 10.6.8

    As soon as I reboot the Xserve 10.6.8 original that's all is back to normal.

    What does not work:

    Those who connect has worked well:

    • Mobile sync (on Unassigned Computers)

    • Log is as user network at home (on Unassigned Computers)

    • PCS worked fine. New settings have been made correctly. On all computers.

    • Automatically install some actions has worked well on all computers. It is a local administrator on the client computers. When connecting to the account, the network shares are mounted using PCS.

    • Resolution of the DNS of all client computers

    • DHCP works OK

    • Client computers running 10.6.8 seem to be not affected.

    At one point one of the workstations involved that did not work, started working.

    What I tried and not solve the problem:

    • Renew DHCP client

    • Removed liaison OD and put in place again

    • Trashed records managed preferences (these have been re-created correctly)

    Ideas on possible causes:

    The most logical causes of this behavior might be:

    (1) client computer cannot find the master OD.

    (2) the powers of negotiation fails.

    Since the Division of the OPPOSITION binding work, works PCS etc., the client computer is the master of the OD.

    The latter seems the cause more lickely. Ticketviewer does not show tickets. Ticketviewer by using the credentials of a user of OD manually requesting a TGT works very well.

    All advice is appreciated.

    Kind regards

    Nico

    Hi Nico,

    Maybe the problem is related to the AFP. Have you tried disabling AFP in Systempreferences and delete all shares. After this restart AFP and try to add shares again. Have a look at the access privileges. It is urgent to remove and re-add the userfolders on the server share.

    Good luck

    Peter.

  • Clocked at 20 degrees warmer since putting on 3.87 Rev A Bios Update on Z420 Workstation

    I have a question:

    Not too long ago I put the Bios Update on A Rev 3.87 was considered to be as critical an update on my workstation Z420 (running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit), and lately I've found that the CPU idling at about 20 degrees more hot than before.  I used to hear creaking noises coming from the computer I learned normally come circuits on the motherboard power delivery, but as long as I heard those CPU would be on average around 50 degrees C at idle.  I hear these noises and now the CPU is on average around 70-75 degrees C at idle.  Not sure what the connection is.  HP performance Advisor tells me I'm in the normal range, but I want to just make sure that with programs like Autodesk Maya there, she become too hot and stop the machine.   I don't know what the temp high-end is considered maximum security.  This change could have due to the update of the Bios?

    Thank you for your response and suggestions.  I check in my BIOS power management settings has been developed the extended mode, but the temperature has always hovered around 70-78 degrees at idle.  I checked Intel spec for this (E5 - 1650 6-core xeon) processor, clocked at 3.2 Ghz by heart, and although he said nothing on the TMax, he mentioned that the TCase (which he defined as the maximum temperature allowed integrated processor heat sink (IHS)) was 64 degrees Celsius.  Now my temperature of the case, according to my HP Performance Advisor version 1.7.7517.0 is only about 24 degrees C, but I put my fan a little higher CPU, about 2009 rpm speed.  This makes a little more noise, but my CPU temp has dropped to about 49 °.  "" Before the change of the fan speed has been slightly more than 1300 RPM while the Advisor I have always said that it is in the range "normal".  Is it good to get the speed of the CPU fan like that or do I have to go a little lower?

  • HP Z620: Z620 Workstation - Bios Rev 3.88 A Fn buttons does not!

    Hello

    I recently got a strange problem with the Bios on my workstation HP620.

    Keyboard is "Microsoft 4000 ergonomic keyboard".

    Although the F5 / F10 keys normally work in Windows 10, they no longer work in the system Bios.

    means I can't save the changes that I'm doing here. I can spend all the options, from disabled to enabled for example,.

    but as I need to hit F5 or F10 to make/save the changes, and not works keys Fn, I can't change anything in the Bios now.

    What could be?

    Reason may not be the Version of the Bios or the keyboard, as I already brought it changes a few months ago.

    Thanks for any help

    Maybe for your interest, in case this appears on other systems:

    reboots, manually install the new drivers and reconnectings did not work, I've been just the mouse and keyboard, so

    Updated Windows drivers, this solves the problem, seems to be a problem of port driver.
