• Problem with getting communication with old instrument GPIB-ENET/100

  Hello!

  I'm trying to get my program in VB.net to communicate with an older instrument (Infratek 305 A, measure of power) via a GPIB-ENET/100 device.

  The manual of the instrument does not say what GPIB standard, it supports, but the instrument is detected by the measurement and Automation Explorer.

  Detected by that I mean that MAE has detected an instrument located on the right GPIB address, but indicated identification is the output measure instrument string

  instead of the name of instrument (as shown for some more recent instruments of Agilent).

  When I run my application, I followed the communication with NISpy.

  Configuration of the device seems to work and I present only once in the program.

  The problem is reading data from the instrument. Whenever I read the data, I get a correct string of the instrument. But the problem is

  I get the same data in two consecutive and all readings first after that I get new data and also these new data are received in two consecutive readings.

  According to the manual of the instrument the instrument generates the data as follows:

  "A row of data ends with CRLF. The instrument can send multiple rows of data. "When all of the data transfer is complete the EOI (end or identify) is sent.

  My endpoint settings are:

  Send EOI to write complete: YES

  Terminate read on EOS: No.

  EOS byte: 2

  8 bit EOS compare: YES

  Define EOI with EOS on write: No.

  How can I configure the GPIB-ENET/100 to work with my instrument?

  Here are som NISpy logs:

  Hello!

  I don't have the opportunity to test with other controllers.

  However, I found a solution to my problem.

  The instrument should output 4 lines of data.

  L1 - line with comments

  L2 - line with current values

  L3 - line with the values of voltage

  L4 - line with power values

  The first line of the reading stops the instrument of implementation of additional measures.

  The measurements in the instrument began reading the last line of data (L4)

  The problem was that the instrument for a reason any also released a fifth line, which was empty.

  Read this line 5' th stopped the instrument again.

  By configuring the HW to finish reading on EOS, with EOS PMQS, the value byte, I could read the

  buffer of the instrument with a line output instead. This way I could read just L1 - L4

  and the instrument could work again.

  Next time I should read data from the Instr. first of all, I would like to read the empty line, then

  L1 - L4.

  Why the outputs Instr. an additional empty line will be left not resolved.

  My problem is solved.

• Cannot remove the old project of Simulator.

  I used to have a project and removed it form my work space. But every time when I started the debugger, this project still there. And the Simulator still looking for this Project. When you start the debug, I myself runtimeexception, which indicates "WaitForObjectToBeRegistered". But this should not be here. And the method of appeal, I trouve.main-> a.registerApp always there.

  I made blackberry JDE file-> delete files Simulator and clean.bat Simulator. It did not help.

  How can I remove it?

  Thank you.

• Attempt to order NI Instrument Simulator to affirm SRQ

  Hello

  I'm contacting the v2.0 of Simulator OR instrument on a non-Windows using the API of DDK OR-488 platform.

  I was not able to get the Simulator to say SRQ with the sequence of commands, as indicated in the simulator of instruments OR manual (* ESE 01; * SRE 20; * OPC)

  I am able to send the ' * IDN? "query to each primary address 3 and receive a message to identify each of the simulated devices.

  I try to get the DMM to assert SRQ, but devices GPIB simulated will.

  AF first I tried investigating different registry settings, but then I see the SRQ light on the Simulator on and turns off and the variable ibsta would show the SRQI bit being set and deleted later when I sent a query command. So finally, I commented on these queries out of my test code after an initial check that the registers have been established as ordered.

  They gave me the Simulator instruments NOR without the software Assistant, so I think that the box is in its default mode. However, there is no dip-switches on it except for a switch to toggle the value NRML.

  I am able to printf() the ibsta, iberr and return values of the result in the ibcmd(), ibwrt() and ibrd() calls that I do in my test code, so all suggestions about what else in the API OR - 488 DDK in the controls of the Simulator or the simulator of lights that could provide me with more information to debug this problem would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  After further experimentation, I determined what the problem was. I had previously removed the prefix "0 x" registry values when you set the ESE and SRE registers, otherwise I would get a "command error' in ESR." Although I still consider these values as hex Simulator instruments them interpreted as decimal. So now, when I send the * SRE 32' the simulator of the instrument is what I wait for him.

  Which again raises the (minor) issue of why I had problems with the prefix "0 x". I tried ' FORMREG HEX' to see if that command, which causes the query to be returned in hexadecimal format, results also influenced the simulator of the analysis of the registry value in the command but still no joy. However, since I have a workaround, I'm moving.

• missing GarageBand instruments after update

  After I updated Garageband to the latest version, I lost most of the instruments. Projects using, for example, "Harpsichord" always opens and plays well in Garageband 10.1.2

  But new projects in 10.1.1 do not have this tool available. I tried to download essential sounds, sounds available everything and reinstall Sound Library with no result. Thanks for any advice.

  GarageBand is not an instrument of the harpsichord by default.  There was an orchestra harpsichord installed by the Jam Pack 1 and logic added some harpsichords.

  Have you ever Jam Pack installed?

  How to Garageband 10.1.2?  Did you uninstall GarageBand 11?  If you have uninstalled any previous version of GarageBand before joining GarageBand 10.1.2 you may need to reinstall any JamPack you used, or old instruments of GarageBand 11.

  Harpsichord instruments will show in the legacy of your instrument library section, if they are still installed.

  

• Installation of NI-VISA and NOR-488. 2 on Mac

  I have a new Mac on which I am trying to install instrumentation OR (VISA and GPIB) pilots, and things don't work any tips would be appreciated. I downloaded the most recent version of these two (14.0 visa) and 3.0.1 for the GPIB, ran the installers (restart the computer between the two installed) and then tried to run the VISA configuration utility and the GPIB configuration utility to verify that the drivers were ok (at this point, no measuring equipment is attached to the machine (ultimately, the material will be a USB-> RS232 adapter and a USB-> adapter GPIB).

  The two configuration utilities crashed running. Config GPIB obtained in what concerns to the top of its window and then crashed a few seconds later; NI-VISA never even managed to finish to display the home screen.

  In reviewing reports of incidents, accidents seem to be in the OR-PAL driver at low altitude. The report indicates that

  / Library/Frameworks/nipalu. Framework/versions/1/nipalu

  Abort() called

  Poking around the list of files mentioned in the uninstall NOR-PAL guide, it seems that the kernel extension nipalk.kekt was not actually installed correctly (it is absent of/Library/Extensions and/System/Library/Extensions, and according to the uninstall folder, it should be present in both. I tried to copy the kext above a machine that does not have a functioning VISA/GPIB install, but OSX refused to load because it has not actually been installed.

  My plan right now is follow the uninstaller for VISA, GPIB and NOR-PAL and then try to run the installers, but I fear that I will end up in the same place. Y at - it something special or something needed to get these drivers to install correctly (i.e. should things be installed in a specific order, should I try to install VISA 5.4 and then do an upgrade installation 14, try to sacrifice a goat, stuff like that)?

  The material is a Mini Mac OSX 10.9.5 running.

  Thanks for any help.

  And just to follow up with a few additional details, I went through the same procedure on a second Mac that was fresh out of the box. When running Setup for NOR-488, one of the things that we tried to install was an "Update" the subsystem NI Core Services of pilots. This was despite the fact that the VISA facility has implemented a much newer version of the kernel drivers.

  Thus, it seems that the problem is that NEITHER-488 Setup does not correct version control before overwriting the subsystem of pilots. He obviously checked that the driver has been installed, since the action has been listed as "update" instead of "install".  At least in principle, running the installer of NOR-488 first, then the VISA installer should work, but for some reason some the only time where I tried in my tests, it did not work. Maybe, I haven't had a full work of sanitation among other failed attempts. Just for the record, is the sequence that seems to work

  (0) remove all traces of any agreement, failed to install. Follow the steps described in the files uninstall.txt for NOR-488. 2, NI-VISA and NOR-PAL. The uninstall for this latter guide is located in/Library/Application Support / National Instruments/NOR-PAL

  (1) perform a standard installation of NI-VISA 14.0. Restart the computer. Check VISA works (just run the config utility)

  (2) perform a standard installation of NOR-488. 2 3.0.1. Restart the computer. The VISA and GPIB crash when access

  (Optional) curse (2A) to the length

  (3) perform a standard installation of NI-VISA 14.0. Restart the computer. The VISA and GPIB should now be functional.

  Tested on a pair of 'Late 2012' Mac mini OSX 10.9.4 running. One machine was Labview 2014 before you install the drivers for the instrumentation, the other had not installed LabVIEW.

• NOR-USB 6008 Matlab Mac OSX

  Dear NOR-Experts,

  I wasn't sure which Board to post my question, so if this isn't the right place please accept my apologies. Be a too-unskilled computer user, I tried in vain to approach a converter A/D of NI USB-6008 of in MATLAB R2012b on a Mac OS 10.8.3 for quite a while.

  Searching through the internet (http://www.binghamsite.com/miscellaneous/matlab-mex-and-ni-usb), I learned that the General path to follow is to use the mex from MATLAB command to compile code written in C in the programs included by MATLAB. By following the instructions provided on this site, I ran mex - configure, edit the mexopts.sh file and was able to compile the file simple timestwo.c for test purposes.

  I then tried to do the same for the data acquisition example .c files provided with the package OR-DAQmx Base (3.6 v). I have been informed that mex objects require the inclusion of the header of NOR-DAQmx Base (NIDAQmxBase.h), so I tried to run

  MEX - I ' / Applications / National Instruments/NOR-DAQmx Base/includes ' acquire1scan.c

  Compilation fails producing a lot of information, I do not understand (see attached file). However, the error messages

  "Error: this platform is not supported, because long is not 4 bytes." or

  "Error: this platform is unsupported because int is not the same size as long."

  appear repeatedly. My Macbook uses an Intel Core i5 processor that is 64-bit, if this may have something to do with it.

  Any suggestions on how to get this race would be very appreciated.

  Thank you

  Robert

  Hey, Robert,.

  I think that MATLAB 2012 for OS X is a 64-bit only application, which will not work with 32-bit data acquisition Base driver.  There may be older versions of MATLAB who have a 32-bit version on Mac OS X, it would probably work with the method described in your link.

• NOR-DAQmx tools lack

  Hi all

  I installed the latest versions of NOR-DAQmx and NOR-DAQmx base software. I would use the tools NOR-DAQmx (like on the video tutorial: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/5370) but I can not find the software (screenshot attached) tools. Anyone know what's the problem?

  Thank you!

  Hello Joonasmikkola,

  You should be able to have the DAQmx Base and DAQmx installed on the same PC (I have both in my other computer).

  Could you open measurement and Automation Explorer, expand the software tab, check if you see list of NOR-DAQmx?

  If it is not, I'll try to repair OR DAQmx of Windows Control Panel > add/remove program > National Instruments > NOR-DAQmx and do a repair on the pilot.

• Integration of material NI_DAQ and NOR-DAQmx software on the same system PCI-DIO-96

  Hello

  We have a great system that is developed in VB and uses the traditional inherited NOR-DAQ system. The system controls the controller PCI-DIO-96. We would like to upgrade to some parts of the system to NOR-DAQmx and use VB.Net and we know that you can install both systems together on the same computer.

  We have a few questions:

  (1) once the legacy of NOR-traditional DAQ OR DAQmx software can be integrated in the same system. Some parts of the system will always use the VB and the other parties will use VB.Net.

  (2) if the answer to the first question is Yes. Are there hardware or software limitations? Is there a recommended way to integration?

  (3) are there articles based on the knowledge about it?

  Thanks Jeremiah

  There are a number of limitations to the use of NOR-DAQmx and NOR-DAQ traditional at the same time.  First of all, only one of the drivers can access the device at a time.  To switch between the drivers, I recommend that you read this knowledge base Article: that I can use OR-DAQ traditional (old) and NOR-DAQmx simultaneously?  You will need to use the equivalent functions of VB .NET to switch between the pilots.

  In addition, the system should use Windows XP or an earlier version.

• Generating waves in Sin with NOR-6733

  HelloW,

  I am tying to create a waveform of sin and I don't know if the way to create this wave is similar to the creation of output analog normal best volts

  That's what I did:

  }

  I do not know what tio write in the DAQmx section write Code I looked for examples, but didn't find any...

  Hi Kobi Kalif,

  The DAQmxCreateAOFuncGenChan is supported only with NI ELVIS product. To create a sine wave using your PCI/PXI-6733, please look at this example:

  "" "" "" "" Start "all programs" National Instruments "NOR-DAQ' text Code support' ANSI C examples" analog on' Genereate tension"Cont Gen Volt Wfm - Int Clk

  This example creates a table of values using the math.h library. Then this mapping table is read at the speed of the sample clock. By default, it creates a table of correspondence of 1000 points, and the sample clock is set at 1000 Hz. This will be genereate a 1 Hz signal. The relationship between the sample clock and the number of points determines the output frequency. If you had a table of choice of 1000 points and a sample of 10000 Hz clock, the output frequency is 10 Hz. You can change the amplitude of output by changing the gain of value default 9.95 what whatsoever between 0 and 10.

  
  

• NI MAX entry for a pilot of LabWindows/CVI Instrument Non-NI/VISA

  Hi all

  Sorry in advance if this isn't the right forum.

  I created a class IIA and driver specific instruments in LabWindows/CVI for a video generator. The generator is a SCPI instrument based network. It does not automatically appear in MAX like other instruments NOR based.

  How or what I need to do for MAX to use the instrument? Is it as simple to add the logical name, the session pilot and advanced pilot joined MAX? I need to create a new instrument in the HW section, such that the pilot session has a device to point to? I played aroud with the section of the network instrument in MAX and nothing seemed to make sense to me.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you

  Manesh

  Manesh,

  Maybe this Knowledge Base article will help you to help you get started. I think that you will need to add a new resource of VISA's TCP/IP able and Automation Explorer.

• NEITHER ELVIS Instruments not available in Pro edition

  How can I get the Instrument NOR Elvis appears in Multisim Pro Edition 10.1?

  Is it avaialble single instrument in the academic version?

  Solved.

  So I installed the educational version on top of the Pro edition.

  This makes ELVIS instruments appear.

  I don't know if there is a better way to do it.

  It seems exaggerated in order to add an instrument.

• Enter more logic plug-ins in FCPX?

  I'm starting to mix more with FCPX.  Instead of send to logic.  I wonder how I could add some more effects of the logic in FCPX?  For example: EVOC 20 Filterbank?

  Is there a protocol to track down and adding new filters of logic to the effects FCPX browser?

  All ears,

  Ben

  I don't think it's possible (but don't take my Word as gospel.) Dig around the system, the only references to EVOC are in folders called 'Plugin settings' which, for me, means that the actual plugin is another software that is not exposed to the system as an AU (audio unit). I've been able to add AUs to FCPX.  When digging around logic, all interns 'plugins' are all "code segments' or what happens in the old days would be considered a"resource ". There is nothing separate to "lend" to (or install) FCPX.

  Do some research in the plugins like Native Instruments Absynth 5 for something that can be used in a similar way as EVOC 20. He has a huge "filter bank" (presets) for effects (Absynth 5 MFX is exposed to FCPX.) Guitar Rig 5 effects are really nice, except that I have a problem with FCPX stop unexpectedly from time to time, or to have a "Preset" don't "stick" when I close the window of the plugin (now found a patch that could solve this problem [updated - it's a little better - wouldn't call it fixed - but better - fcpx did not leave *].) Guitar Rig is designed to emulate all the "toys" available to guitarists in the real world (amperes [of each variety], Reverb, echo, distortion, etc etc etc any effect of grid, you can think of...) and is not necessarily just for guitar sounds - it can be used for singing. The difference in the user interface is Absynth is designed for electronic musicians who understand the fundamentals of the additive and audio signals (and FM) synthesis (if your going to go in the personalization of your sounds beyond the pre-defined parameters), and Guitar Rig is for those who like to play with the buttons on specialized "boxes" which are unwilling to address the more technical aspects of an audio signal.

  I have to say that the real (Absynth, Guitar Rig) synth plugins are not available in FCPX. They have ancillary effects ("FX") modules that are available. Not all of my instruments NOR appear in FCPX.

  You might also be interested in the following (free):

  https://Tal-software.com/products

  You can search google for "in THE plugins' (or 64-bit to the plugins'-don't forget you must have 64-bit software to run in FCPX and Logic Pro X.)

  * When experiences with other audio plugins in FCPX (I didn't for a while!) many of them crashed FCPX [10.2.2], so maybe it's not the plugin of Guitar Rig specifically, but FCPX himself who crashes. I sent each Apple crash report. I hope they fix, because I like to play occasionally with audio (and the platform of guitar effects are really * very * nice.)

• Unable to get copy of targeting DAQmx.dll 4.5 / / the type 'NationalInstruments.ISynchronizeCallbacks' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced.

  I inherited a software project that uses the NationalInstruments.DAQmx.dll library. I currently have the 13.0.40 32-bit version of the library. I rewrite the 64 bit .NET 4.5 and have found problems when you use the 13.0.40 version. Namely the two errors below

  Error    1    type 'NationalInstruments.ISupportSynchronizationContext' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly ' NationalInstruments.Common, Version = 13.0.40.190...
  
  Error    2    type 'NationalInstruments.ISynchronizeCallbacks' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly ' NationalInstruments.Common, Version = 13.0.40.190...

  Research mistakes online, I think that the problem is that my current DAQmx.dll is the .NET 4.0 framework and my new project target .NET 4.5.

  I went on the Web site of NOR and downloaded the NI DAQmx 15.1 "Downloader" (found here http://www.ni.com/download/ni-daqmx-15.1/5617/en/). This executable, once executed, then downloads ~1.7GB compressed files, once unpacked there are a large number of software and current documentation. After speaking with an engineer application OR on the phone he asked me to launch the NI DAQmx setup in the top level of the unpacked files folder. He then installed what I would call the Suite OR software... (Front flip, after I did an uninstall, the uninstall program me notified that I'm removing 224 pieces of software.) So why I call it the Suite OR).

  After installation, I was tasked to search for a similar folder installation directory to MStudio / / DAQmx / / DotNET / / assemblies / / current for the new version of the DAQmx.dll but only found dll starting with NationalInstruments.Common and anything ending with DAQmx. I also did a search on the full installation for the dll directory and found no NationalInstruments.DAQmx.dll. I decided to try the . Common.dll suggests that the naming convention may had changed, nothing helps.

  (Just some extra info) Finally, I went to the machine that has the old version of the Suite OR on it (I develop on a separate computer from the one using my instrument NOR) and looked under the same folder I mentioned above. Under this folder I locate a NationalInstrument.DAQmx.dll if this is the one I currently use. I also find a 64-bit version of the 13.0.40 dll, which is nice, but still has the same problems as the 32-bit version.

  So I guess my questions are now

  • Do I have reason to think that I need a newer dll? The one with the XX naming convention. XX.45 (15.1.45, I hope)?
  
  
  • If so, a DAQmx.dll who target 4.5 is of NEITHER?
  
  
  • If it does not exist, where can I find it? ...

  Well, I think I have mislead you again NYC. It seems that my problem has not been resolved. I tried all the libraries for each version, Measurement Studio from 2010 to 2013.

  Error 1 the type 'NationalInstruments.ISupportSynchronizationContext' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly ' NationalInstruments.Common, Version =15.0.40. 49154...

  Which I guess means that the name of the 15.1.45 directory does not coincide with the 15.0.40dll version. Am I misunderstanding this error, or am I wrong that the dll under 15.1.45 are not what they are labeled as?

  For reference, here are two snippits of code I'm trying to do work.

  using (NationalInstruments.DAQmx.Task analogWriteTask = NationalInstruments.DAQmx.Task (()) new / / errors arise here using task
  
  {
  
      String [] channels = DaqSystem.Local.GetPhysicalChannels (PhysicalChannelTypes.AO, PhysicalChannelAccess.External);
  
      analogWriteTask.AOChannels.CreateVoltageChannel (channels [1], "aoChannel", MIN_VOLTAGE_OUT_THEORETICAL, MAX_VOLTAGE_OUT, AOVoltageUnits.Volts);
  
      AnalogSingleChannelWriter writer = new AnalogSingleChannelWriter (analogWriteTask.Stream);
  
      writer. WriteSingleSample (commandValue, true);
  
  }

  
  

  using (NationalInstruments.DAQmx.Task digitalWriteTask = NationalInstruments.DAQmx.Task (()) new / / errors arise here using task
  
  {
  
      String [] channels = DaqSystem.Local.GetPhysicalChannels (PhysicalChannelTypes.DOPort, PhysicalChannelAccess.External);
  
      digitalWriteTask.DOChannels.CreateChannel (channels [1], "port1", ChannelLineGrouping.OneChannelForAllLines);
  
      DigitalSingleChannelWriter writer = new DigitalSingleChannelWriter (digitalWriteTask.Stream);
  
      writer. WriteSingleSampleMultiLine (commandValue, true);
  
  }

  EDIT: So the real problem is that I have not included NationalInstruments.DAQmx.Common.dll in my project.
