• GigE vision on OR cRIO-9068

  Hello:

  We are planning a project in which we intend to use embedded vision and transformation of vision GigE cameras. Our client is interested in the cRIO-9068 embedded platform.

  The question is: is there support for GigE Vision on the cRIO-9068?

  I can't find a document that says, so I guess that no public support is granted. If this is the case, I would like to know why.  I think that the VxWorks targets do not GigE support, but this cRIO running Linux. From the outside, I think it would be possible to provide a GigE for Linux support.  The only devices that seem to favor GigE run Phar Lap ETS.

  Thanks in advance for your kind reply.

  Just to answer he question, the 9068 does not support GigE Vision. Layer MAC Ethernet embedded on the chip of architecting it uses does not meet the requirements of GigE Vision (similar to the old cRIOs VxWorks/PPC).

  The 9068 does support USB3 Vision cameras via its USB 2.0 port well and a lot of GigE Vision cameras have identical models in variants of the USB.

• 4540 proBook s: drivers missing

  Hi, I have a few questions.

  I formatted my computer laptop hp ProBook s 4540 with windows 7 64 bit and I noticed that my laptop is no longer permitted to detect all internet.

  The following drivers are missing:

  Base system device

  Ethernet controller

  Network controller

  PCI Simple Communications controller

  Standard VGA Graphics Adapter (Note: there are two of them and one of them says that the driver is missing.)

• Choose the network protocol for CRIO-9024 to PXI on Ethernet

  We are in the design phase, implementation of an embedded controller for CRIO-9024 to send data captured at an SMU-8105 on ethernet controller. The data will be arrays of double-precision 2D. These data should be sent to the pxi at the end of each test step. Each stage will have a different number of channels and sampling frequencies.

  For example, Test step 1 will have 5 channels of analog inputs that will be sampled to 100,000 KHz for 1 second. These data will come from the CRIO FPGA. Data will be get dealt with by the CRIO-9024 and analyzed post to pass or not not metric. Then, the CRIO controller will send the data 2D (data points 500 000 5 X 100 000) table and the results of all the measures (a table 1 d) for PXI.

  The connection with the PXI will use Ethernet.

  Do not forget that the PXI should also send the CRIO certain values to tell the CRIO when starting the test, and when the test sequence is completed.

  I thought that TCP/IP would work better because of communication 2-way necessary. But then I was watching streaming network or even using shared Variables.

  If anyone has any ideas or suggestions please please post them.

  Hello

  You can use either.  If you are more comfortable with really.  The STM method will be a little less overhead on my style XML tagging data, but it will be very short given the size of the data.  Probably go with STM has it right most of the work for you.

  Regarding the size data the you must normally transfer data as this is to flatten to a string.  If you convert a string of numbers readable human you will either lose accuracy, increase the size or both.  Because the string after that flattened will be the same size as the original array anyway for the quick calculation based on your previous post 500 000 double (8-byte) is 4 miB (3.8 MB)

  See you soon,.

• Controller time real-time FieldPoint or Ethernet interface

  Good afternoon

  The first feature listed on the PS-2000 product page is:

• Stand-alone embedded real-time controller or on PC distributed i/o Ethernet interface.

Everyone was able incorporate a PS-2000 as an Ethernet on PC distributed i/o interface?  In other words, have the PS-2000 as a FP-1600 Act?

There are some discussions forum discussions that dance around the subject, but I found no really one who responds to her.

Thank you

Ed

Hi edlad,

After playing with a FP-2010 for a while, I think you need to install LabVIEW Real-time on the controller to make it work, even though you are technically not to use it because you are not running a VI/executable on the controller. Regarding your problem with the installation of LabVIEW 8.5.1 on a PS-2000, it is disturbing because it should not be a problem that at all. In fact, I have personally been able to install LabVIEW 8.5.1 on many FP of the 2000s. For that matter, I suggest reformatting of the PS-2000 of MAX and try again.

ThinkG: Regarding your question on the use of a PSC-2220 to connect with belvedere, I don't know because the support of Lookout is managed by our subsidiary in Shanghai by e-mail only. However, I don't know that you can use this second ethernet port to connect with another network (cFP-180 x) FieldPoint module using the FieldPoint drivers. Here are some good articles about this configuration knowledge base. I hope they are useful.

• Support of the shared Variables in the third part XP embedded based of PTC?

  I sent a request in an embedded XP touch function (third party). The application works very well, but hosted on a RT (sbRIO Board) shared variables are not getting updated in the app on PTC

  1. the PTC is part of the project as a Windows XP Embedded Touch Panel

  2 NI TPC Service has been installed on the PTC and the application can be deployed remotely from the PC development via ethernet. (Where network connections and communications are OK)

  3. using distributed in the development computer systems manager, I can see that the shared variables are getting updates on the network

  I think that the problem can be solved if the following programs are installed on the TPC

  A. Support for variables that are shared for XPembedded

  B. shared Variable engine

  I tried to install the support of variables shared Program Files > National Instruments > Labview 8.6 > PDA > utilities > Variables > x 86 - but I get an installation error "cannot find the application for the Pocket PC applications Manager.

  Shared variable engine was installed from the ve220 folder. The program is installing. But the engine Variable is not start Control Panel > administrative tools > Services, Xpe, the service is stopped and cannot be started. When I try to start the service, I get the following error on PTC

  "Cannot start Service engine of National Instruments Variable on the local computer."

  Error 1053. Service has failed to demand launch or timely control.

  Please suggest solutions to the addresses above or another of the following:

  1. support of variables shared for XP built-in PTC

  2 Installer engine Variable shared.

  Thank you

  Krish

  Problem solved!

  Update for interested people working on XP Embedded PTC

  Just to ensure that shared Variables were indeed accessible to the TPC, I wanted to install Distributed Systems Manager 8.6 on the TPC. However given that the TPC was only 1 GB of DOM (disk on memory) and with all the software that I had tried, there remained only a few megabytes on the system. I had to add an another DOM of 2 GB.

  All products in the Installation went well, with the exception of the Logos NOR (Version 5.0). Logos OR installation has failed repeatedly.  I tried to install NI Logos separately, with the same results. Then I had this intuition that NI Logos had anything to do with the question.

  Then, I downloaded the new version of NI DSM 2009 SP1. Even if it were to settle on any fresh system without Labview, the installation would not proceed beyond the stage of configuration. I tried to install NI Logos of the folder on the download of new products separately and it worked magically!

  Once the new Logos (Ver 5.5) installed, the Shared Variable engine starts automatically and the shared Variables are finally unleashed - free stand up and shine! I thank Almighty God!

  On the lighter side, come to think of it - to run an application about 400 KB, we need NEITHER of Run Time, XP embedded, DSM, Logos...  (around 900 MB). Can make us everything simpler?  Invite your comments...

  Thank you

• HP ProBook s 4540: update WiFi on ProBook s 4540

  Hello!

  I have the HP ProBook s 4540 with Ralink RT3290 wifi. It does not work like I think it should.

  The wifi router is located at 1 meter from the laptop. But the connection is lost once every few hours. And the Internet speed is unstable.

  Please see graphs of speedtest for wifi download speed:

  http://i.imgur.com/7Gd9eE2.jpg

  http://i.imgur.com/HWvgEc8.jpg

  I also have the Asus laptop, Samsung smartphone and iPhone - their internet wifi connection is stable and much faster to Download / Upload speed. So, I conclude that the problem is in the HP ProBook wifi module.

  When I use the Ethernet cable - I get a more stable connection. Take a look: http://i.imgur.com/H7GTjLd.jpg

  What I tried to solve the problem:

  I checked how antenas are connected to the wifi module - there are 2 wires and the connection is good.

  I got my drivers Ralink RT3290 to 5.0.5.0.

  I upgraded the drivers to the latest version of the Mediatek website.

  I installed the latest drivers from the HP site.

  Nothing has worked

  I plan to fix this module wifi or just change. Can you recommend a better wifi? I think I have the whitelist of wifis compatible on my ProBook, but I don't know about you.

  Thank you!

• HP Probook s 4540: fingerprint reader does not

  Hello

  Problem: fingerprint - Windows journal reader under does not have the ability to connect via the fingerprint reader.

  Overview: after installing the drivers of the fingerprint on the HP site and thanks to the HP protection tools to register successfully to fingerprints, I tried to log in via this method, but the Windows Connect screen does not display this option. Device Manager correctly identifies and shows the fingerprint sensor - however, the Control Panel does no detection of biometric devices.

  I really need help with this problem. Details of what steps I took trying to make the scanner work are given below.

  Specs:

  1) 4540 probook s

  (2) Windows 7 64 bit

  (3) i5 - 3210 m, 1 GB Hd 7650 m, 4 GB at 1333 Mhz, 750 GB 5400 RPM, VFS 491 fingerprint reader.

  Details of the problem and the steps of my work to install the drivers:

  After a new installation of Windows 7, I went on the site of HP driver to download the latest drivers for Probook s 4540:

  http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=5229457&...

  I installed the drivers in roughly in this order:

  drivers ethernet controller 1) realtek.

  drivers audio 2),

  (3) the chipset and USB 3.0 drivers (but not the Intel MEI driver)

  (4) Intel video driver: a problem such that the pilots were not allowed to install. After you disable switchable graphics in the bios, I was able to get these drivers to install.

  (5) AMD video drivers: installed after graphic driver intel HD - installed but Catalyst Control Center was not displayed. Then I reactivated switchable graphics in the BIOS, re-installed these drivers and CCC was now available.

  (6) support for HP keyboard shortcut

  (7) HP Universal camera driver

  (8) fingerprint sensor fingerprint validity

  (9) Synaptics Touchpad driver

  (10) Atheros wifi & bluetooth

  (11) Jmicron card reader

  After driver installation, I installed the HP protection tools. According to request a reboot of the PC, which I did-, he asked for the setting up security etc... Part of this pocess was the registration of fingerprints - successful. However, log off / restart of windows, an option to connect with the fingerprint reader does not appear in the Windows login screen.

  I open the control panel and found there wasn't that no biometric device only tab, even if the Device Manager showed biometric sensor, device and validity (VFS 491). I then uninstall HP protect tools and driver validity sensor fingerprint, and made sure that these services are running:

  -Credential Manager

  -Remote Procedure Call (RPC)

  DCOM Server process Launcher-

  RPC end point mapper-

  -Windows Biometric Service

  Plug-and-Play

  Then as suggested in another post on the forum, I installed first of all this:http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55109.exe , then the drivers of the validity of 4540 s drivers page, then HP protection tools.

  After the reboot HP protect tools as before to register my fingerprints, but still no windows login prompt came to connect with fingerprints. However, a change after installtion of http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55109.exe that has been in Control Panel it is now a tab for biometric devices. However, it is said that windows did not find it all installed biometric devices. A picture is attached showing the Device Manager and Control Panel!

  Please HP offer a solution. Thank you!

  

  OK problem solved. I don't know if it is related to the HP windows 7 system essential updates driver installation and Intel MEI or not - but I install these.

  What has really worked probably was it - > install the drivers of fingerprint and then the HP protection tools.

• DownGrade Windows 8 Pro 64 bit on 4540 s HP Probook Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

  Hello

  can someone tell me the correct procedure to downgrade pre-installed 64-bit Windows 8 Pro that came on my laptop 4540 s newly purchased to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit? Machine itsself comes not with any media. I also read the key is now also integrated into the BIOS. As I intend to replace the 500 GB HDD with a SSD 250 GB, I would like to re - install windows 7 at the same time. I know that you can download the vanilla windows versions 7 of m6mobile.fr and others and then install but I wanted to know if there was a formal process for HP machines. It would be also good to know that the process of extraction of the COA, so I can activate Windows 7 installation completed.

  I am based in the United Kingdom (and an employee of HP)

  (it seems I'm not the only one having this problem - I guess this method works http://www.pcworld.com/article/2015107/downgrading-from-windows-8-to-7-what-you-need-to-know.html?pa... )

  but before could someone confirm that part "call microsoft" will be ok for me if I have no physical cost... also what can I do if I have not a pro windows 7 product key to enter during the installation of windows 7 - because obviously I intend to use the rights to downgrade to windows 8 pro key!).

  advice appreciated.

  Ad.

  Ok...

  so having figured out that I can downgrade sounding MS I took the lead and mounted my new SSD drive and installed Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. Everything is good. What I need now is some of the correct drivers to get me going.

  If someone could point me to the right for the following, I'd be grateful so I don't waste time to download everything. My version is HP Probook 4540 s C4Y79EA (i5-3210/4 GB RAM/15.6 inches) model British.

  Some of the choices pilot have several versions of pointers to good enjoyed.

  It is mainly in the field of the network drivers for the Wifi and fixed ports.

  Thank you.

  I determined what hardware is in this model.

  WIFI/Bluetooth - download drivers Ralink

  Ethernet card integrated - download the Realtek drivers.

  The rest should be pretty straigtforward...

  Cheers.
