Interfacing with Mettler Toledo IND560

Hey everybody,

I'm trying to get a scale (Mettler Toledo IND560) to work with a VI I have already created. It is connected by a serial connection 9 pins which is managed via a conversion Series / USB.

It gives me a little trouble, and all I found through research is a pilot to balance work with a server of the OLC. I personally don't have access to one, and I was wondering if there is a simple step that I'm just missing.

Thanks in advance!

I think that you may need to be more specific.  Exactly how long do you have?  And exactly where are you stuck?

The first thing you will need is the manual for the device.  Reading in place on their suggestions to communicate with the device.  They must specify the parameters of connection (for example, baud rate, etc).  And they could describe a specific high level protocol, you need to follow to get the data.

And then to start with LabVIEW and serial communication, you will need to make sure that you have installed NI-VISA.  Then use built-in LabVIEW example Finder.  Take a look at this VI to go:

Material input and output > series > basic writing and reading series

  • Communication series with Mettler Toledo 205 XS

    Hey guys,.

    I'm in the process of establishing a communication series between my PC and a microphone Mettler Toledo (XS-205) balance. The Balance is connected via an RS 232 cable to the adapter USB TU-S9, then to the PC. I do not see the port in the MAX of NOR and via the test Panel, I put the configuration of the communication according to those of my balance:

    BD rate: 9600

    Bit\Parity: 8 / no

    Stop bits: 1

    Handshake: no

    EndofLine: LF

    CharSet: Ansi\Win (only within the balance)

    Continuous mode: OFF ("");

    now, the fact is that if I try to query the command * IDN? \n I get as a response

    1: write operation (* IDN? \n)

    Back County: 6 bytes

    2: read operation
    Back County: 17 bytes
    S\sS\s\s\s-0.0006\s\sg\n

    with an error in the data returned (Hex 0xBFFF006C). I also tried to use the script provided by the site OR Mettler-Toledo scales, but I get all the data and at the end of the routine, I get error VISA: (Hex 0xBFFF0015) timeout expired before the operation is complete.

    Everyone as an indication of what's going on? Thank you much for the help

    See you soon!

    Thank you guys for the quick responses.

    my mistake. Mettler Toledo balances does not accept the SCPI standard commands, but they have their own defined standardized command.

    Thanks anyway

  • LabVIEW with Mettler Toledo Balance through. Help!

    I design a VI that will take a measure of weight and this chart. I thought of her so that I have a stop button and a chart. What I need now is a zero and Tare button. It would be nice to get the correct format on how to use this range of Mettler Toledo device so any info would be great.

    Later on the road, I would like to add a timestamp to every second and a test for each identification number.

    I've tried everything! Help, please. I'm new to LabView and would hear all the advice I can get.

    Thank you

  • Encoder interfaced with NOR-9401

    I bought a coder who has open collector and resistance to pull-up 3.3 kohm (TTL) logic output.

    The encoder comes with four sons: power + 5V, GND, channel A and channel B. channel A and B are logic output.

    Channel A and B are connected to the OID of NOR-9401 which is mounted on the cRIO.

    A standard VI for encoder counting is used and compiled under the FPGA environment.

    During the measurement, I have observed that there are number of significant loss in both directions encoder.

    I don't think that there is a problem with VI like I used it several times on the encoders with output RS422.

    Is there a problem with my current encoder with respect to its electrical interface with NOR-9401?

    Thank you.

    I don't think that there is a problem with pull-up resistance. Even if the digital IO ports have their own resistance to pull-up (usually of the order of 4.7kOhm - should be included in the manual), the power to be handled by the circuit of encoder output transistor is about 2mA. -Check your configuration for a correct connection GND. You must connect the encoder directly power GND to DGND to the printed circuit board Terminal.

  • Interfacing with several unknown USB devices; all producing NMEA strings

    Hi all

    Question about the peripheral USB interface and their associated drivers.

    I have the obligation to build an application that interacts with the USB devices that produce NMEA strings. I have the library to parse NMEA strings, but I fight with interfacing with several unknown USB devices. When deploying applications, I know not all possible USB devices to use.

    Is it possible to produce one driver who will accept any USB device strings?

    Or, more likely, is there a way to get the LV to recognize a connected USB device and automatically find / install the driver like windows does and is it possible to do in a deployed application?

    I had a trawl of the forums, but I've not found anything that specific.

    Thanks, I really appreciate the help.

    About the VI "set up the serial port", my problem is that the choice of COM port is in a separate menu (not directly related to the VI) and it allows all possible COM ports to be selected. That can be addressed.

    I am not expecting an all-in-one solution but asked the question in case it was possible.

    What I realized, is that for my specific condition to read strings from a USB device. It is likely to be sent over a serial connection. LV can handle this well and easily assuming the device has the installed driver / settings are available.

    LV (and indeed any other program) will not work without a device driver / settings. In this case, parameters set must be found (error) / a USB RAW driver would need to be developed. Devices requirng a RAW USB driver would need a serious review to continue due to the time and effort required. All this effort is work inherited from the AIDS to navigation

    I appreciate any help and I think I got the answer I was looking for! Thank you very much

  • A module C - DAQ exists which will interface with standard RV - C?

    Module C - DAQ exists that if interface with standard RV - C (vehicles recreational CAN)? RV - C seems to be a variant of J1939 according to Wikipedia.

    I would use 9861 OR or NI 9862. I'm new on CAN protocol and evaluate some assistance.

    I've never used RV - can, but according to Wikipedia, the rate is 250Kbaud, so you'll want high speed CAN peripheral, 9862, you can set baud rate on init of the material.  After installing XNet and cDAQ software, you have a max bus monitor and several examples in the example Finder to read and write raw images.  After that, you'll want to read on the standard to understand how to format and analyze the data.

    Also if you have any questions, you can post on the Sub-forum Auto , they can probably answer more specific questions.

    Hello

    Do you have to doublecheck your serial line?

    It's a straight or crossover cable?

    the handshake is correct?

    This is probably the way to check and balance in the right mode to be read by a pc?

    I groped almost one day a few years before it really worked.

  • I use pci-6221, I need her to interface with thermocouple with voltage up to 5v

    I use as my pci-6221 or data acquisition card and card 8.2.this labview version gives the constant 10.5 volt signal in at the entrance to analog channel AO on pin 68 and 34. why it shows 10.5 although I did not connect any input.i use type k thermocouple and after signal conditioning with tl0804 I need it interface with AI 0.i channel unaware aware of off the road on the output pins this Card.i need to operate an electric rod that needs 24 volt DC.i give entry to the pins HAVE with variable dc power block after reaching the limit I set(eg:2v) it jumps instantly to 10.5 volts.

    You have your task to acquisition of data configured for the mode differential or asymmetric acquisition for the analog input?

    I don't understand your comment about to connect the pins WITH a DC power supply.  Why is that you connect a DC power supply to the analog input?

    Using an analog output or digital output to operate the electric rod?  I'll assume that you are looking for on/off control.  A digital output is not the voltage or current to drive something that big.  You may be able to find a relay for coil 5VDC.  Check current requirements.  With which you can have the relay to connect or disconnect a power supply of 24 VDC is the actuator.  Make sure you have a protection diode across the relay coil wired, so that the magnetic field of the coil does not damage the analog output of your card.

    Another possibility is to have the 5 VDC output transistor circuit switches the 24 VDC circuit.

    Pease how can I fix this problem driver version 6.0.6000.16386 windows vista pk2 thanks

    Hi thonson35,

    ·         Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?

    ·         You get the error message?

    ·         Do you have any human Interface device attached to the computer which does not (such as the keyboard, mouse and joysticks)?

    I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall all devices interface. Follow these steps:

    1. Click Start, type device Search Manager and press to enter.

    2. Device Manager window opens, expand Interface devices.

    3 right-click every device under the peripheral Interface node and then click on uninstall to remove them one at a time.

    4 restart your computer, windows will reinstall the Human Interface Devices.

    5. perform a test to ensure that the problem is solved.
