• Panel Test DAQ opened on the remote system

  Using the command-line tool nidmfpan.exe you open a test panel to a device on your system by specifying its name.  Here is an article which he described.

  http://digital.NI.com/public.nsf/allkb/9B628A8B1B13136F86256DDB0004DE4D

  But what is not mentioned is how to call this function if it will open a panel of test on a RT system.  This is possible because in MAX, you can select the hardware and the same test panel is displayed, but I don't know the right way to call this EXE, so it will open it.  Is there any place that command line switches are documented for this program?  And what is the method for opening a panel of test on a piece of DAQ hardware on a remote system?  Thank you.

  Since nobody has been able to help me I thought about it myself.  If you call the application nidmfpan.exe with the command line switch send_break_action: with the IP address of the remote system it works great.  I also found you can use the/dev: instead of the /devid: to specify the device by a unique identifier instead of the alias MAX.  Thus, for example:

  C:\Windows\SysWOW64\nidmfpan.exe /host:192.168.129.1/dev: {84535FB2-8F2A-11E6-8061-00802F25AF78}

  Or

  C:\Windows\SysWOW64\nidmfpan.exe /host:192.168.129.1 /devid:cDAQ1Mod2

• readings of Veristand instruments with a remote system

  I'm new to the National Instruments and Veristand material and I'm trying to use an instrument with Veristand to see if I can get readings of this instrument. I use a PC with Windows Vista and I am connected via a network to a PXI-8108 controller in a PXI-1050 chasiss chassis. The instrument is just a thermocouple which I use to become familiar with everything. The thermocouple is connected and the connection SCB-68 block which is connected to a PXI-6221 multifunction data acquisition in the chassis. I am able to create a task in MAX under remote system and everything seems to work. What I want to do is to get the readings in Veristand, and I don't know if I need to create a custom device that is related to the acquisition of data somehow, or if there is another way to do it. I created the DAQ hardware in the system Explorer, but I see no way to link the real DAQ hardware on the remote system. I wonder if anyone can help with this.

  All advice is appreciated.

  Thank you

  You can read the value of your thermocouple directly from VeriStand channel, but the process is different than using MAX.

  In the system Explorer, add your DAQ hardware that is wired to your SCB-68. Make sure that you specify the same name (i.e. ' Dev1'), which is the make up something, you also that you have imported the peripheral canal which hangs to the thermocouple (i.e. "ai0"). There is no way in System Explorer to specify that this channel should be scaling of thermocouple. VeriStand initially served this string value value brute power. However, you can set the limit high and low for this channel to something small as +/-1V, since thermocouples have very small readings.

  You add the balance to your system separately after the deployment of the system definition, you have created the target of RT. For this to connect to the target using the workspace and select the tool to the workspace on the Tools menu called channel scaling and Calibration Manager.

  In this dialog box, you will see your TV listed DAQ. Navigate in the dialog box assign an appropriate scale of thermocouple to your channel. Once this is done, the target will remember the scale for this channel until what crush you.

  I would like to know how it goes...

• How a cRIO can access remote systems VISA resources?

  I have a NI 9871 RS485 module on an ethernet 9148 RIO.

  I have also a laptop and a cRIO 9073.

  I can access each of the 9871 serial ports on the computer but not the 9073.

  When you try to access it from the cRIO, I get error:-1073807192, VISA: (Hex 0xBFFF00A8) is denied access to the resource or to the remote machine. This is due to the lack of sufficient privileges for the current user or the machine.

  How the cRIO can access the serial ports of the module 9871 on the ethernetRIO?

  Or how a remote access cRIO visa resources?

  Or how a cRIO can have sufficient privileges to access remote resources from visa?

  Thank you for your help.

  Hi Woss,

  It is possible that your RIO Ethernet has some parameters of active access which is to prohibit the connection to serial ports.  You can change these settings in a position and Automation Explorer (MAX) for your device by going to the device under remote systems, expanding the category of software under it and choosing NI-VISA.  There will be a tab in the right pane of MAX called Options of VISA.  In this tab, select Server VISA > security to access these settings.

  From there, you should be able to add the IP address of the RIO device that needs to access the VISA on the RIO Ethernet server.  Once you have changed these settings, just click on register at the top of the window and allow the unit to restart.  Let me know if that helps!

• None of the remote systems are found in Max in VMware

  I started using virtual machines and I don't see any remote systems listed in MAX within the virtual machine, but I see the remote system on my real machine. It is not a big problem because I can always run my code and connect to the target of RT of the project within the virtual machine, but when I need to look at MAX it would be nice to not switch back between my VM and the computer. I wonder that if it is behavior, others have noticed, or is - it possible my MAX database is corrupted? The section of the entire remote systems doesn't fail, just no hardware found and listed under it when I update. I wonder if this is a problem with how the virtual machine sets up the connection TCP must work with the real hardware. Hoping that someone more competent than me in this relm can point me in the right direction.

  You have probably done this, but you made sure that your VM is set to a "Bridged" mode where the network connection between the virtual machine and the host allows him to get an address from an external DHCP server and is not only local host machine?  MAX can only auto-detect devices to its subnet via a proprietary (OR-RFP) protocol or via AppleTalk (according to how the devices are configured and what software is on them), and if the interface of the virtual machine network is in mode "NAT" or "Host-Only mode" which interferes or completely blocks the discovery method.

• 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,.

• VISA does not recognize the remote system max

  I tried to configure the instrument cards in a chassis SMU, and I'm unable to get a VISA to recognize.  Reading some other posts related to names of resources VISA, I found that you should be able to drag and drop devices Max NOR in a Labview diagram, and it will automatically create a resource VISA for device control.  I am able to do that the name for the devices installed on "My System" (COM1 for example), but when I try to do 'Remote system', a few drops in a block of text.  If I try to create a resource VISA directly control, the drop down menu displays only the devices on my system.  I even tried to change the VISA category for the control.  Still not get visa to recognize the remote devices.  Please notify.

• MAX shows no remote system tree tab

  Hi good morning all,

  I installed LabView 2010 and along Max on my laptop OS Visat 4.7.7. Problem that I face, is that my tree MAX 'Remote system' tab is not visible. Only my system tab is visible and its shows all software and peripherals properly.

  1. What are the settings that I need to check to get this tab shown in the tree?

  2. do I need to install other software or patches or re - install the software?

  3. Why is it happening?

  Kindly help me with your valuable experiences.

  Best regards

  Zdzislaw qureshi

  Thank you much at all.

  I'm able to resolve the issue of MAX as well as I needed to uninstall all software of OR and delete their records as well. Then re-installed the software NOR necessary and now everything works OK.

  Dear Patricia, I am able to see real-time in the three recommended positions. For the latest configuration, now I know and remember that I've seen in real-time in LabView front page, rest, I haven't checked that I didn't. Anyway now its solved.

  Once again thank you all for the advice and valuable support.

  Best regards

• SMU remote system do not read file .lvm

  I try to get my remote system (SMU remote system) to send a signal of analog voltage by reading a file .lvm.

  I have a project in real time implemented, and under my remote system, I have a VI that is supposed to give a signal of analog voltage.

  The implementation of VI begins by reading a file position (.lvm). After that, it is connected to a DAQ assistant.

  I'm already sure that everything is connected properly, and that it is the right channel. The reason why I'm sure is because in the DAQ assistant window, I can click on "run" in order to send a test signal. I am able to capture this signal to test with an oscilloscope. Therefore, I am sure that the system is all set up correctly.

  Finally, I don't know if it's important, but the measure file he was reading is located in my host. I don't know if I deploy when the VI to the target, if the measurement file is sent to the remote system with the VI.

  I was wondering if someone could help me please.

  Thank you

  Leon

  Hi Leon,

  If I understand correctly, you are trying to read a file .lvm waveform data and send this waveform through your SMU system. What devices are specifically using (chassis, modules...)? What exactly happens when you run the VI? You see errors? If so, what are the codes that come with these errors? Additional information on what the file .lvm would be also useful. What are the functions you use to play the .lvm file?

  Kind regards

• Remote systems missing - followed by another post

  Now I have a little time and I installed 2010 and drivers who install MAX 4.7. It is a sequel to this post here. Still miss me remote systems in the tree. I was going through the steps to repair a corrupt database max and one of the steps is to make a copy of the data directory. Well... When I navigate to the location, the data directory is not yet there. I think this might be my problem. I download some drivers to reinstall MAX and see what happens. I don't think it's the DVD of drivers because other people in my office have used the same DVD without problem. I'll contact support technique ot tomorrow, but in the mean time of suggestions on the missing data directory?

  

  In case anyone has this problem now or down the road here is how I solved it with application engineers of NOR. Check if there is a mxRmCfg.dll in C:\Program NIUninstaller Instruments\MAX. If it is there and you are missing the remote systems, it's probably your problem. This means THAT MAX tries to run the dll of this repertoire that she shouldn't do (at least as far as I understand). Deletion (or just rename may be safer) the .dll file that should solve the problem.

• How to replace Labview RT10.0 with RT8.2 on the remote system?

  LabVIEW RT10.0 is installed on our new PXI-e8133 controller. Our host is running Labview RT8.2. That's why I'm unable to download and run a VI from the host to the remote system.

  I want to download RT8.2 between the host and the target (so replacing/removing RT10.0 on the remote system). On another controller, we could choose the 'old' RT8.2 by download to MAX (which replaces the latest version). This is not an option with the new controller. Add/Remove software MAX, available versions of RT on the host is 'none' (even if RT8.2 is listed under the software on my system).

  How to install RT8.2 on the remote system? I have to completely remove RT10.0 first of the remote system?

  Thank you!

  Unfortunately, the minimum Version of the compatible LabVIEW RT for the PXI-e 8133 is 2010. This means that you must either upgrade to LV2010 or choose another controller.

• View files and directories on a remote system (RIO) on a host (PC)

  Hello

  Please assume that we discuss software based on the example of standard project "Labview FPGA control on Compact RIO." The host is an initiation LV14 ongoing fall of running PC, the remote system is a sbRIO-9636 having a USB HDD and SD card. The objective is the control of the process. The control process is not relevant to the question.

  That question is on the implementation of the following functionality: the user operates a host running a user Labview vi (UI Main.vi) the interface locally on the host computer. Part of this vi should offer the user built in dialogue (some express vi or another) or custom dialog (a vi to measure on request). The dialogue should display the directories and files on the remote system that is running RT Main.vi and it must allow the user to select a single XML file on the remote system (which contains generic configuration information). The file name is passed then to the remote system and the remote system will act to open and fill out a few configuration variables.

  I'm sure that a widely used solution exists for this problem but I have not found the right words to type in my favorite search engine and yet to produce the result. I propose the following:

  (1) the user clicks on a button "select config file" Main.vi UI

  (2) the place of event loop UI Main.vi a message on the main message queue of the UI based on the event value caused by the modifier key

  (3) the UI Main.vi enqueues message loop a separate message on the stream from the network "user interface control flow '.

  (4) the Main.vi RT, RT loop - UI Commands.vi Subvi receives the message from the stream and places it on the message Main.vi RT queue

  (5) the message Main.vi RT loop performs some functions to read disk, directories and filenames of the RT system structures

  (6) name of file and directory (5) data are converted to a variant and went with an appropriate message in the network of RT writer stream

  (7) the Main.vi UI periodically reads the stream network of RT writer (it's in the 'monitoring loop') and place the message received (6) in the queue of messages in the user interface

  (8) the message queue of the user interface main filled the main façade of the UI with the data

  (9) the user selects the directory and the file they want and click on an ok"" button.

  (10) the causes of button click ok the event loop of the main UI to place a message in the queue of messages of UI Main.vi due to the expectancy value change on the ok button

  (11) the places UI Message Loop a message on the stream from the network "User interface control flow" with the selected file name of the selected file as the data (stored as Variant)

  (12) the RT Main.vi, RT loop - UI Commands.vi Subvi receives the message from the stream and places it on the message Main.vi RT queue

  (13) the RT Main.vi message loop opens the XML file and populated the appropriate variables with the configuration options that are there.

  The user must be able to cancel the dialog and avoid using a configuration file, but I have not delt with it here.

  Now for the questions:

  (1) is this a logical approach?

  (2) are there any suggestions for a better way?

  (3) all links to pre-written code that will allow to me impliment all or a part of this with minimal effort (I am referring to dialog bit rather than the forest of streams and events network as these structures still exist and have a lot of custom code in them)?

  Thank you

  James

  I do something like that, but as the interaction of the user on the host, I keep the Configuration files also on the host.  This saves a few steps:

  • Host opens VI of dialogue saying "Choose Configuration file", pointing to the location designated on the host.
  • The user selects a Configuration file.
  • Host bed data packets to send to remote files.
  • The host sends Message 'Configuration' with the previous step Configuration data remotely.
  • Remote control receives the message and any Configuration configures automatically, possibly to send message 'I'm Ready' return home.

  All I/o file consists of the host, and only a single host remote message must be sent.

• remote system: what?

  Hello

  I have a number of tips in a PXI chassis (6602, 6734, 6052E, 7813R, etc.) connected to a computer in the lab. I have wondered for a while if I could 'export' this advice than I could manage on the Internet (from my office, for example). Without going through a web interface (I can try when I get LV 8.6 - I am currently using 8.5.1), but using MAX to access "remote systems". I'm so confused from what qualifies as such: is this limited to advice in real time with processor shipped?

  Thanks in advance for all advice, links, explanations that might help me get started.

  X.

  Hello Xavier.

  You have reason your assumption that remote systems refer to targets in real-time and not to other systems in general.  The remote control of your devices, you can use, as you mentioned, a web interface, or you can configure a client application where everything is controlled through global variables. It would be less than using a web interface, but with some work could give you a lot of functionality.

  

• What are the limitations of access to the remote system?

  I've got a PXI-1042 remote controller 8108 and 5112, 6723 & 8420 PXI. I can see all the devices remotely from my laptop to the MAX 4.4 (under NIVisaServer).  My problem is that I don't know if I can use all of these cards remotely?

  I am programming in C++ of MS using VISA & DAQmx libraries and have been able to use the serial ports of the 8420 distance without any problem. But the programming remotely 6723 poses a greater challenge. On previous projects (not involving remote systems) I simply defined virtual world channels in NOR-MAX and DAQmx... used library calls to control. But I'm not able to access the Global virtual channels on the remote system and I can't create anything on my laptop that connect la carte 6723.

  Also, I can't run OR-SCOPE Soft Front Panel on my laptop because it is impossible to find the 5112 digitizer.

  Is it possible to have full access and the capacity for remote 5112 & 6723 card?

  Ken

  You are able to view the various devices on the network to the MAX, but unfortunately you can not create glodbal virtual channels or use the functionality of these cards.  The best way to use these cards on the network is to use the remote façade (in LabVIEW only), Remote Desktop, etc.  I have included some useful links to get more information.

• Remote system disconnected after having installed MAX 4.7.3

  Hello!

  This topic is related to the question which you can find here.

  In order to fix the problem of locale on Windows (XP in my case), I used the update to 1.1.3 System Configuration and it seems to work. I changed the locale to my local and installed the update. Silverlight goes not down, so what is fixed. However, this created a new problem:

  Now my status from remote devices (1742 - NOR and NOR-1746) is always "offline". The devices are connected to a different subnet to the development computer. Rattling of their IPs have shown that they are there. I can connect to the camera using the project in real time. However, in MAX remote system status remains 'disconnected '. I tried to delete and recreate MAX devices, but that doesn't work anymore.

  I also tried it with the Windows Firewall, power on and off and updated software with NI Update Service. On another computer, which did not have the update yet, I can connect to and modify the devices.

  In addition, I completely reinstalled the development system, but the problem persists.

  Kind regards

• DMA between host and target FPGA is not supported for this remote system.

  I try to cover with my FPGA (on the cRIO-9002) of the RTO.  I have install upward of anOpen good VI reference without error, but as soon I try to access thefifo I error-63001 and the attached message wrote:

  Error-63001 occurredat reference FPGA VI opened in the target - multi rate - variables - fileIO_old.vi

  Possible reasons:

  NOR-RIO FPGACommunications framework: (Hex 0xFFFF09E7) DMA from the host to the FPGA targetis not supported for this remote system. Another method for controller of e/s or climatiqueLes associated with the FPGA target.

  What other I/O optionsdo I need to move the data asynchronously to the RTO for the FPGA. I have triedcreating memory, but it seems that I can't write to the memory of the RTOSside.

  We have also a 9012sitting around will using this cRIO rather solve this problem.

  I'm very very greenwhen it comes to LabView, so I apologize if this is an easy question.

  As stated in the readme of the driver NOR-RIO, DMA is not taken in charge from the host to the FPGA on the cRIO-900 x series. The cRIO-901 x supports DMA transfers between host and FPGA and FPGA to host all the cRIO-900 x series controllers only support transfers the FPGA host DMA. As a result, LabVIEW returns an error if you try to transfer using DMA controller for cRIO-900 x.

  The 9012 looks like the ideal solution, you are very lucky to have additional hardware laying around
