• Can I export software intalled on via MAX PXI chassis list

  I am trying to export the list of softwared installed on PXI chassis for archiving purposes via MAX. This way when I need to reinstall the software on chassis I know exactly that the drivers have been used before.

  Hello drakkar.

  You can create a report NI Max.  To do this, please go to file > create a report.  Here you can select which system you want to create the report and the type of it.

• CNVString - send strings of a PXI chassis by ethernet to an application of labWindows on another computer

  I have a PXI chassis with a PXI-8101 controller. It is equipped with a system of operating in real time. I connect to it on a PC with a Windows operating system. I am trying to send my PXI system variable length string messages to my PC.

  On the PC, I have a LabWindows application that allows you to send and receive data with the PXI system. I'm trying to send the PXI system error messages to the PC on ethernet. I am able to send digital data between them, but not the string messages. The PXI software meets the CNVCreateArrayDataValue() function call and not to her, but never returns. There only have this problem when the CNVDataType parameter is CNVString; When I change the CNVDataType to CNVBool it doesn't have this problem. I'm new on this time real PXI so would appreciate the help. Here is the code on my PXI system that sends these text messages.

  At the beginning of the RTMain, I create the writer

  CNVCreateBufferedWriter ("\\\localhost\\system\\" REG_CAL_ERROR_STRING, 0, 0, 0, 64, 5000, 0, & gErrorPublisher);

  Then I call a function with a string in the list of parameters:

  void SendRT_ErrorMessage (char * message)

  {

  Data CNVData = 0;

  int error;

  error_str char [256];

  int i;

  char out_str [ERROR_STRN_SIZE * 4];

  strcpy (out_str, message);

  size_t arrayDims = ERROR_STRN_SIZE;

  arrayDims = strlen (message) + 1;

  error = CNVCreateArrayDataValue (& data, CNVString, out_str, 1, & arrayDims);

  If (error<>

  {

  strncpy (error_str, CNVGetErrorDescription (error), 256);

  }

  CNVPutDataInBuffer (gErrorPublisher, data, 1000);

  CNVSetArrayDataValue (data, CNVString, out_str, 1, & arrayDims);

  CNVPutDataInBuffer (gErrorPublisher, data, 1000);

  CNVDisposeData (data);

  }

  Change this:

  public static void CVICALLBACK ErrorMessageCallback(void * handle, CNVData data, void * callbackData)
  
  {
  
   char message [ERROR_STRN_SIZE];
  
  CNVGetScalarDataValue (data, CNVString, & message);
  
   (void) SetCtrlVal (panelHandle, PANEL_TEXTBOX_DEBUG_MSG, "got something\n");
  
   (void) SetCtrlVal (panelHandle, PANEL_TEXTBOX_DEBUG_MSG, message);
  
   (void) SetCtrlVal (panelHandle, PANEL_TEXTBOX_DEBUG_MSG, "\n");
  CNVDisposeData (data);
  }

  To do this:

  public static void CVICALLBACK ErrorMessageCallback(void * handle, CNVData data, void * callbackData)
  
  {
  
   char * message;
  
  CNVGetScalarDataValue (data, CNVString, & message);
  
   (void) SetCtrlVal (panelHandle, PANEL_TEXTBOX_DEBUG_MSG, "got something\n");
  
   (void) SetCtrlVal (panelHandle, PANEL_TEXTBOX_DEBUG_MSG, message);
  
   (void) SetCtrlVal (panelHandle, PANEL_TEXTBOX_DEBUG_MSG, "\n");
  CNVDisposeData (data);
  }

  You also need to add CNVFreeMemory to free the memory allocated for the string.

• How to install the version of nor-Sync 3.1 in the remote system (processor integrated PXI chassis) to recognize the PXI-6682 device to work with labview RT?

  How to install the version of nor-Sync 3.1 in the remote system (processor integrated PXI chassis) to recognize the PXI-6682 device to work with labview RT?

  Hung Nguyen

  Hung Nguyen,

  The installation of drivers for all targets in real-time remotely is more or less the same. First install the driver (in your case the NO-Sync) on your PC, then install it on your system remotely through MAX. For step-by-step instructions, see install the software on your NI CompactRIO controller.

  See you soon,.

• PXI chassis not found after reboot host

  I use a chassis SMU-1073, Win7 and Labview 12.0f3 on the host. After a restart of the host, MAX is unable to find the frame and I need to reboot the host. Rebooting usually works, but often it is necessary to power down of the PXI chassis too. It is very tedious and time-consuming. There must be a way to simply restart the driver (single) and set things right after a restart of the host. Thanks for your help!

  Hi bjuberchaub,

  Let's see what crossrulz has to say about the race condition, but the situation you have described above does not sound like a driver problem.

  Regarding "if I cycle power on the chassis and try to reconnect", we recommend strongly cyclical food your chassis when your computer is turned on.  It is the equivalent to remove a PCI (e) card on a desktop while it is running. It can cause permanent damage to your system.

  The reboot sequence appropriate must be:

  1. Turn off the power to the host
  2. Disable the chassis
  3. Turn on chassis
  4. Turn on the host

  Never do anything with your chassis power when your computer is turned on.

  Given that:

  1. I'd be interested to see what looks like your Windows Device Manager when the steps above are followed.  Do you see unknown devices?
  2. The LINK is clear on the chassis power?  Is what color?
  3. This configuration never before without this behavior?

  If I misunderstood your comment about cyclical diet and you just follow the steps I have outlined above, I would be interested in getting answers to questions 1 and 2 when your system is in a State of non-working (e.g. restart you computer without rebooting the chassis).

  Kind regards

• Connection USB CAN use a map to a PXI chassis

  I have an SMU-1078 chassis with an SMU-8115 Pharlap controller running.  The chassis contains two maps XNET for CAN communication. All the slots in the chassis are full so I can't add another card XNET. Instead, I tried to connect a USB-8473 CAN map to a USB port on the front of the chassis on the assumption that I could program my LabVIEW project. This seems not to be possible, and I asked my support of local technical who do not feel that it is possible.

  I have to say that MAX can see the card (seen in RAW format), and I can bring a VISA reference for her in LabVIEW. However, I can't tak on the device using the API CAN frame. I also connected a USB-6008 card to the chassis and the same applies, you see, but can't talk about it.

  I understand that the 6008 use DAQmx and it's a Windows driver but everyone was able to snag a USB card on the front of a PXI chassis and talk him to LabVIEW?

  Thank you

  I highly doubt that it will be possible if you use LabVIEW RT on the chassis. Should NEITHER create Pharlap drivers for the card CAN

  Yes it would, and I believe that NI CAN 2.7.3 has support for Pharlap.

  http://www.NI.com/download/NI-can-2.7.5/4143/en/

  There maybe other versions.  Basically, you need to install on your host machine, then use MAX to send the program and drivers to the PXI chassis, so you can write LabVIEW code for RT target that uses these drivers.

• What is the best way to interrogate a PXI chassis in TestStand

  Hi all

  I have a few benches that have a PXI chassis and others without.

  I would like to request for the chassis and if she's not here, I'll use another method of test.

  Y at - it a way to query for the chassis and if it is how?

  Thank you

  Hello

  You can use the VISA to find resources. If you return PXI [bus]: device [: function] [: INSTR] or PXI [interface]: [bus] device [.function] [: INSTR] then you have a PXI chassis

• two drivers of PXI chassis with Configuration problem

  Hello

  I have two PXI chassis. One is PXI 1033 and works perfectly with the NI PXI-5404, 5105, 6509, 1409, installed 8336. The other is 1036 PXI with the PXI-5404 NI, 8366 installed. When I was trying wreath connect, as master 1033, 1036 as slave, I found several problems.

  1. in the Measurement & Automation Explorer, does not have my good guys in 1033. Instead, there is a sign of the Red Cross in bottom right with 6509, 5105, 5404.

  2. I can't find an another 5404 of the 1036. In fact, I can't find 1036 in MAX.

  Update BIOS. My PXI system is already identified under the name 'NOR PXI - 1033 Embedded MXI Express' and Chassis1 is identified as 'NOR PXI 1033'.

  So I made several tests as below:

  1. unscrew the 5404 1036 slave. MAX can configure 2 1036 chassis. Ok. But when I reconnect 5404 in 1036, same result happened as stated above.

  2 uninstall the driver of 5404, so the 5404 in 1033 does not either now. And then reboot again, same result happens again. Cannot detect the 1033 chassis. Other vouchers in 1036 don't work either.

  Please, any suggestion is highly appreciated.

  Sincerely,

  Bin

  Hi Ben,

  This happens sometimes with MXI-Express:

  Error code 12 with MXI-Express

  http://forums.NI.com/T5/PXI/two-PXI-chassis-connection-with-configuration-problem/m-p/1475876#M9033

  In general, you can read this error 12 means on Device Manager:

  Explanation of error codes generated by Device Manager in Windows XP Professional

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310123

  If it was a problem of bandwidth, PCI or PXI side, you could pull a few cards to see if that alleviates the problem, or that the link from Microsoft over the States, you can disable the driver for other cards.

• Analysis of resources of RIO PXI chassis

  Hello

  I am trying to find a way to analyze all the resources of RIO in a PXI chassis programmatically.

  In my chassis PXI-1085, there FlexRIOs (7975R), but also the VSTs (5644R and 5646R).

  Using communication NI-VISA, I was able to communicate with all these modules, but only if an Alias is defined in NOR-MAX.

  I have'nt bee able to get RIO associated modules found resource name using 'VISA find resource' VI.

  Also, I have 2 questions:

  -Is it possible to communicate with my modules without defining an Alias in NOR-MAX?

  -How can I get the name of RIO resource programmatically?

  (I could put as an alias of VISA in NOR-MAX the same name as the resource name of RIO but it is very restrictive, the deployment of the application to other configurations)

  Thank you

  I'm guessing a bit here - but is it possible with the System Configuration screws? It's the library/tool box that allows you to get various information about a system (for example cRIOs - installed software) - there is a 'material to find' VI-I suppose you can point to your PXI and it will give you some information?

• Why can I not see my PXI chassis from a remote computer?

  I have a controller SMU-8130 and chassis SMU-1062 q. I want to add PXI chassis as target in my LabView RT project located on a remote desktop. However, LabView can not detect targets PXI and cannot NI MAX.

  I can see the PXI on my network and can it ping.

  What Miss me?

  Hi kcponyman,

  If you are using the IP Reset and change the IP settings, for example to obtain an IP address automatically, designating these changes take effect when you recycle the power. For once that you select this option, reset the device and IP address should be defined automatically.

  If this does not work, you are able to statically set IP address?

• Running out of 400 Hz PXI chassis

  Has anyone tried running an off AC running at 400 Hz PXI chassis?  We have problems with the power supply for our location data acquisition system in an aircraft and 400 Hz seems to be the best option for a continuous power.

  Matt

  Hi Matt,

  On what chassis? My guess would be that we cannot, simply because the numbers for all of our power switchable are different, however, I'd be happy to look into the issue for you.

  The following link has a list of all our chassis PXI with swapable power supplys:

  However if the DC is an option, I would recommend one of our DC power chassis.

  PXI - 1031 DC

  PXI - 1036 DC

  PXI - 1000B

• Problem sending trigger software through backplane PXI (chassis SMU-1082, SMU-6363 DAQ, SMU-6544-HS-DIO)

  Dear community,

  I am trying to implement a background basket (software) PXI trigger on a chassis NI SMU-1082 with LabView 2015 (32-bit) running on an SMU-8135:

  HS-DIO (SMU-6544) in slot 2,

  -Acquisition of data (SMU-6363) into the Groove 4,

  -Flex RIO (SMU-7962R + OR-6583) in the Groove 3.

  The trigger schema is explained in the attached file ' LV-PXItrig-HSDIO-DAQ - overview.jpg ".

  Scenario 1: written DAQ analog signal and sends signals trigger HS-DIO (software) through bottom of basket, after East of waveform of the complete signals to DAQ for acquisition.

  Scenario 2: logical impulse on an external port HS-DIO triggers signals HS-DIO, after HS-DIO waveform is complete DAQ triggered for the acquisition of the ADC by the backplane.

  In principle this breaks down to send a trigger of module A to B by PXI backplane. The SMU-1082 chassis has a bus trip with 8 lines (PXI_trigX, X = 0,..., 7) more a trigger in Star controlled the slot 2.

  I've linked to implement a software trigger, but I can't access the refreshing resource and execution, see the attachment. Other ways of implementation including the DAQmx Terminal / routine disconnect Terminal have not worked for me either. I am aware about the connection of trigger using the node property VISA but I can't make a trigger.

  Tips, comments or solutions are appreciated. Thank you!

  For scenario 1, you want to trigger the HSDIO acquisition to begin as soon as the analog output DAQ starts?  You can use DAQmx Export Signal to send the trigger for the start of one of the lines from the Trig PXI backplane. Then, you need to configure your HSDIO acquisition to use a trigger digital beginning on the same line of trigger. Take a look at the example of the "Dynamic hardware generation start trigger" in the Finder of the example (help > find examples)

  For scenario 2, looks like you do a dynamic unit HSDIO generation when a digital trigger arrives on one of the PFI lines. Once the build is complete, you want to send a trigger for the DAQ hardware to begin sampling. If this is the case, you again use a trigger to start material in your task of NOR-HSDIO, as you did for scenario 1, but use external trig line as the source, rather than the bottom of basket. There is no case of material when the build is finished, but you can use a marker in script mode event instead. The example of the Generation with dynamic event marker' in the example Finder gives a good starting point for this type of operation. You'll want to set the output terminal for the event to be a line of backplane trig, and then tap the DAQmx to start on the same line trig trigger.

• Computer will turn off when the PXI chassis is turned off

  Hello

  I realized that my computer is shut down properly if I disable my chassis PXI-1036, until the computer is turned off. Is this a normal behaivour?

  As I remember, the chassis PXI-1036 must be turned on until the computer is power on, and I think that maybe on turn it off I have to follow the same procedure.

  Thanks a lot for your advice,

  Hector

  The chassis must be on anytime on the PC is.  Then it turn on before the PC and turn it off after the PC.

  This is because the chassis is an extension of the PC's PCI bus, so he expects everything to be available all the time the PC is powered on, as would be a PCI expansion card.
