• NI USB - 6501 OEM more sensitive to electromagnetic interference?

  We built a NI USB-6501 OEM card in a small instrument of office dedicated to switch ultrasonic impulses 300V between 3 transducers, using reed relays not shielded high-voltage controlled by the USB-6501 (using MOSFET transistors to drive the relay coils).  The end user reported that when he operated his ultrasonic transmitter at greater than 100 v voltages, USB-6501 would break (green "heartbeat" ceases, LabView or test panels lose communication with the interface).  Lower voltages to ultrasonic had no effect. Inspection of the 5vdc supply rails when running the pulse generator showed ears LOUD noise (surprise?), so we have recreated the box so that 1) optical isolation and no electrical connection between the USB-6501 and switching and 2) pension switching was surrounded by a 'box in the box '.   During a test, ultrasonic signals apparently still radiation enough so that the USB-6501 would break as before.

  Avoiding half measures, I mounted the USB-6501 in a completely separate extruded aluminum case (the land to the USB bus, but not to "taking" of land) with optical transmitters and optical fiber plastic 3' has been the only connection to the ultrasonic switch box (which is inside its own extruded aluminum case).

  This made things better: the USB-6501 would work for a while when the ultrasonic signals were present but still crashes after a few minutes.  In addition, reports researcher that starting the engine w / controller in immediate proximity to this interface also immediately causes a crash of the USB-6501.

  Right now I do more optical cables and confirmed that the USB-6501 works thankfully when he is simply the engine optical transmitters with no ultrasonic signals in the area.  I'm surprised that this digital i/o interface seems so sensitive to environmental disturbances.

  We made sure that 1) was based on the shield of the cable USB ONLY at the end of the PC, according to the specification USB;  2) cable USB was of ferrite chokes to make it less

  an antenna 'noise' 3 the Board 6501 had connected logic ground the housing in aluminium, and 4) we have equipped the case with a pattern important

  cable and clamp to connect to a 'true' of the Earth.

  When the end user has reported that there were still problems, I went to his lab and discovered

  He assumes that hang on a couple of wires ground wire, to a strain gauge, which was stuck on a piece of 3' of the railway, itself sitting on a wooden table

  no electricity whatsoever, what meant it was "founded".  After that I am makes me sputter and him look staring in disbelief, we plugged into an electrical conduit nearby,

  and all of a sudden, the problem disappeared.

  I'm glad it works now, but the fact that turn on an instrument of motor stepper located three feet of 6501 can crash against interference if)

  the case is not grounded), stillsurprises me.  I expect to use 6501 in other instruments, it will take extra precautions on the armor.

• Can I use a USB-6501 instead of a PCI-6503 map?

  I currently use a card PCI - 6503 DIO into a Windows XP system. We have an old (7.1) version of LabVIEW. We are looking for a Virtual Machine in Windows 7, but he will not be able to communicate with the PCI Bus. We currently use a PCI-6503. A USB 6501 will work to place it?

  We are looking for some intot wiring problems, but I think it will do the job.

  Thank you.

• USB-6501 not seen by MAX

  Hi all!

  I have a PC under WHAT XP 2002 (SP3) with two USB-6501 Renault connected on it.  I can see two devices in the DEVICE MANAGER under the heading "Data Acquisition hardware" and the two seem to have installed proper drivers.  They show their driver versions of file as 2.3.1f0.  I also have NI MAX v4.6.2 installed on the computer.  But Max, I am unable to display all the devices.  When I try and expand the section "Devices and Interfaces", the MAX software enters a State of non-response and when he answers Finally, I get the following message redirect me to the Web site of EITHER:

  There was a problem connecting to the database.

  Restart your computer.  Refer to knowledge base article 42HG08DD for more information

  and if the problem persists, contact National Instruments.  Go to ni.com now?

  I could see the two Renault to the MAX on another computer with installed Windows7 and MAX version 14.

  Just make sure you install complete DAQmx with the support of the MAX configuration.  It is possible to enter in some States strange if you have MAX and DAQmx Runtime, but not the support of DAQmx for MAX.  In addition, MAX 4.6.2 is a real version, but very old.

  Note Setup below should work and will include a version of MAX.

• USB-6501 as Stepper Motor Driver

  Hello

  I've been away from LabVIEW for awhile (6 years or more) and I have a small task to achieve and am really struggling to start.

  I have a USB-6501 DIO and Labview version 8.6.  I need to drive a motor not not that requires 4 input (in my case 2 Port (0 to 3)) and depending on the phase of these 4 signals with respect to the other (its a circuit of H-bridge) the engine to drive forward or backward.

  I started with DAQ assistant and I seem to be communicating correctly with the OID and the engine, but I'm not at the stage of being able to produce my 4 signals.  I know that the USB-6501 must be controlled with a timing (as opposed to the generation of a train of function for example).  However I am stuck at start-up my possible solutions seem very long breath that I was wondering if there was a quick and easy solution to produce my 4 signals?  I don't know I'm missing something.

  Any help/comments would be greatly appreciated, as I'm very rusty and I have no time my solution.

  See you soon,.

• NEITHER USB-6501 not recognized by the system

  Hi all

  I wrote this simple application that writes and reads a SPI frame.

  My PC have Labview 8.5.1 and DAQmx 8.7.1 (the CD was provided with my unit NI USB-6501). Everything works fine.

  But now I need to distribute the application, and I need to run it from a computer that does not have LabVIEW.

  I installed the latest versions of the runtime of LV (8.6), and the 8.7.1, DAQmx software but the program crashes produce an error (code 200477).

  I tried to install a more recent DAQmx software (8.9 full, engine of execution of 8,9 only), but the situation has not changed.

  Also: I tried on two different PCs, and I launched MAX: one of them doesn't even recognize that a DAQ hardware is installed (even if Windows recognizes as a work device).

  Anyway, the two PCs return error 200477.

  Any help will be much appreciated.

  Is - this dev4 on the pc without LabVIEW? You can easily see the device name in MAX.

• I bought windows 7 ultimate retail version, but my computer recognizes it as OEM version.

  Hello

  As I wrote, my computer recognized new window 7 ultimate retail.

  Is this possible?

  and MS CS said it's the OEM pre-installed version, but I just installed with the new computer.

  I don't understand how that's possible.

  I just click that activation then she recognized as OEM.

  sample number is lower.

  *****-OEM-*******-*****

  This means OEM?

  and I tried to download windows 7 to make it bootable USB, but it has an error that this key is pre-installed key. So I need to contact the manufacturer. But my computer is assembled by myself.

  How is that possible?

  Someone had the same problem?

  Thank you.

  Looks like you might have bought an OEM System Builder License.

  Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

  The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

  -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

  -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

  -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

  -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

  There is nothing wrong to use it too, especially that all future versions of Windows will be full versions.

• Windows 7 Retail Upgrade DVD ISO on USB or Windows 7 OEM already on USB?

  Hi all:

  I just ordered one of the new generation 5 PCs NUC and up to 10 Windows comes out I would install Windows 7 HP of a retail upgrade DVD.  I have also put already HP Vista retail DVD on a bootable USB to install the first so that the upgrade will be legal.  My question is, I could use a copy of Windows 7 OEM HP already used on another PC on a USB stick and install as an upgrade to the HP Vista installed first from an another USB using the upgrade button to authenticate the OEM version?  Phew!  It was a matter of time.   It would be much easier because Windows 7 OEM on the USB key contains all the latest updates/service packs, and I wouldn't have to do a new USB boot Windows 7.

  Another possible problem is that new PC NUC material can cause the initial Vista HP installation to fail?  Vista is NOT listed as an operating system supported for the 5th generation NUC PC but I hope it will at least install and work long enough to then use the Windows 7 upgrade version.   Failure... it would be legal to use the double "clean install" of Windows 7 method and then explain that I have the retail version of Vista that wouldn't install to allow legal usage of Windows 7 Upgrade version?

  You will not be prompted for a product key until Setup is almost complete. The product key will be recognized.

• USB-6501 - impossible to find a basic example of Labview

  Hello

  I recently bought a USB-6501 card and I used it in my own succesfully end and C++ programs using the DAQmx drivers.

  Then I tried to move to Labview 2009 (I never used Labview) so I looked for a simple example.

  I tried to boot from the example 'interactive Control Panel' (http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/AF0F31EE5D2AD23F862573140009D7C2?OpenDocument).

  I had to install the 'DAQmx Base' for him to start, as described in the previous link. now it begins (before Labview attempted to get a few missing .vi) but I get a message "error 200220 occurred at an unidentified locatio.

  Then I realized this example is 'old' (as explained here: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&thread.id=209247), and it is suggested to look for a new one in example Finder ' entry-level equipment / output-> DAQmx-> Digital measurement (or generation)-> read Dig Port.VI.

  I tried, but along the way ' entry-level equipment / output-> DAQmx-> "only a folder named"Analog Measurement\Voltage"exists.

  Also in the search for 'Reading dig Port.VI' does not work.

  I've already spent many hours in this research and tent and the fact that I am not able to find not even a basic example, it is quite frustrating and it is making me give up the idea of using Labview.

  Please can anyone give me any suggestions where find/download an example simple and minimum to use my USB6501 in Labview 2009?

  Thank you

  Scipione.

  First, install DAQmx Base was a mistake. Uninstall it and then install the Driver-OR-DAQmx. The driver must be installed after the installation of LabVIEW. After installation, make sure that the device is listed in MAX under "DAQmx devices. If it is not, your installation is still not correct.

  To search for example LabVIEW, see help > find examples. Under Input and Output hardware > DAQmx, you will find the digital generation and numerical measures. You have to look at the simple, timed software examples such as read write dig Chan, writing Port to dig, dig chan, reading Dig Port. You also have the option to use the DAQ Assistant.

• USB-6501 Z (high impedance)

  I am using the IDW library to create a master by using the USB-6501. My problem is that the DAQmx write gives an error when it tries to use the 'Z' setting for high impedance. Are there workarounds for this?

  6501 does not support high impedance state... inexpensive compared to high-performance and you have a low cost DIO.

  Might be able to set the output to an entry, but there is still the internal pullup with that you will fight.

• NEITHER USB-6501

  Hello

  Could someone give me some information about whether it is possible to use the

  NEITHER USB-6501

  As a generator PWM to control the dimming of 18 power LED function?

  calendar is not so relevant and if the pulse width can be controlled in the PC itself application the purpose would be financed

  Hello ONavarro,

  It is technically possible, but please note that USB-6501 as only software clocked e/s digital (e/s static). In other words the duty cycle of the PWM periodocity Ant you want to generate will be determined by a loop software, so depending on your system and the USB bus. I think that you will not be able to get a better rate of loop (ability to change the State of a digital line) less than some milliseconds (depending on the system).

  By example, if the loop runs at 5ms, and I want 10 steps in my PWM, this means the period will be 50ms, therefore a 20 Hz base frequency. If you can't reach 1ms, you will get 100 Hz. If you want more than 10 duty cycle value, you reduce the frequency.

  And it is NOT stable (loop software 5ms, first delta 5.8ms, then 4.9ms, 5.1ms, 6.7ms, and so on), because it is based on the software. If you need something stable and faster, choose a device with hardware synchronizing.

  Best regards

• Operation of USB-6501

  Hi all

  I have a brand new NI USB-6501, and I'm looking for more help with the operation.  I'm running OS X 10.11.1, LabVIEW 2013 SP 1, NI-VISA 15.0 and NOR-DAQmx Base 15.0.0.  I set up and plugged my module and get the flashing green light stable.  I ran NI MAX, found the module and renamed 'Motor_Module '.  Then, I went to my DAQmx Base of examples and found the Control.llb Interactive USB-6501 and ran the interactive VI control that is contained in this library.

  The first thing I tried was simply running the VI.  I got error-200220, device ID is not valid.  I changed the name of the device to "Motor_Module" and run the VI.  This time, I got error-200558, a task cannot contain multiple independent devices.  Create a task for each independent device.

  And here I am.  My ultimate goal is to have this output module signal collector type open to + 5 V.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

  Hi Sullivnc,

  I would recommend you look at a few examples in the Finder for example of OR. Under input and output hardware, there is a folder for DAQmx who has a record for a digital output which has some useful examples. If you do continuous or left over, you can add more stuff to your code as a clear task DAQmx, vi DAQmx Timing, and/or vi DAQmx task is made.
