Running on the front panel log

I think the creation of a newspaper running on the front of my VI.  This is bascially an indicator of the chain.   Whenever I write for it in my VI, the indicator will keep to what is out there and write on the next line.  To do this, I think on the use of a register shift to preserve what is the indicator and continue to add to it.

Is this the best approach?

... Since we exchange ideas...

I had set up something similar to what SMercurio described, except that I used an ActionEngine.  This allowed me to keep a log of all the subvi simply by "drop"the ActionEngine. "  It has additional functionality to enable / disable logging, select a file/folder, etc.  Worked very well.

  • Cannot resize the front panel

    I can't resize the front panel to a smaller window.  I put in (0,0) minimum window size, unchecked maintain proportions and to scale all objects.  I had originally put the size of the minimum window to 1012 x 616.  When I close the window property and re - open the settings still collated (0,0) while they are saved, but I am unable to reduce the size of window smaller than 1012 x 616.

    Also, there is open space on both sides in both dimensions, so I'm not running in the front panel objects.  What property/properties miss me that locks the minimum panel size?  One last thing is that I'm able to resize windows from any SubVIs I the same project and edit the minimum window size them and they respond as expected.

  • How remove the border from the front panel when vi is running?

    How can I run a vi without its grey border front?

    Or how can I color border of the Panel front black in order to run it on a desktop computer whose color is black?

    In the attached vi written in labview8.6, I would like to launch a vi and display an image, a checkerboard, for example, without the white border of vi.

    I hope not to have to the size of the vi to a size greater than the size of the screen that I would like to move the front panel of the vi to different possible positions on the monitor.

    Thank you

    In the properties of the category VI "Appearance of the window", go into customize.

    In the appearance of window customize, uncheck the check box allow the user to resize the window. It will be useful.

  • How to scroll through the front panel when running

    Hello

    I'm using LabVIEW 8.5. I want to scroll the front panel automatically according to the moving object. I enclose a vi for example, in which I move the image, but if it is out of range of screen I have to scroll manually horizontal scroll bar to see the position of the image, it is possible that it automatically scrolls according to my position of the object.

    -Thanks in advance

    Hi, Mary,

    Well, now I see what you wanted. From my point of view using front panel scrolling for this animation is wrong way (if not I do not know your final objectives).

    I would recommend that you use the image for this control. Here the work by hand a little more, but you will get better results and will not scroll to your façade.

    For example, "quick and dirty" implemented:

  • How to add a record button on the front panel to save waveform data

    Hi, I'm new kind of LabVIEW and I worked on a code for an agilent oscilloscope communicate via GPIB and so far it works well on the collection of these two analog channels one by one, "Not UNLIMITED" but it does the trick (vpp, Vrms, frequency, etc.).  I've added the feature to add data to a .csv file waveform (problem: opens a dialog box until the user gathers all the data.) Solution: I want the user to save the. File CSV whenever he wants to use later on the front panel). I've added another feature to get a snapshot of the curve waveform (problem: opens a dialog box.) Solution: I want the user to save the JPEG file, whenever he wants to take a snapshot ("take snapshot" button on the front panel)).  I work with the agilent hp54645d driver. I have attached my code, if someone can tell me please how do I do this (maybe cabling and structures are solutions do not know). Thank you in advance.

    I would recommend adding a case structure just around the two record VI and a button to check the condition of the structure of each case. If you want a button to control both save functions you can put the two record functions in the same structure of business controlled by a single button. You are right in saying that the loop will cause your code runs until the stop button is pressed or until the stop condition is met. If you are wanting the while loop to stop once the recorded information you can use the button that you use to control structures case to also stop the while loop. I hope this information helps.

  • How to make non-visible control on the Front Panel appear at Design time?

    I have a few controls on the front whose visibility is changed (on or off) at run time. The problem is that if I stop the Run time, the visibility of the control remains in the running in design mode state. So I am not able to see or find the control to make changes in design mode.

    How can I make all the visible front-panel controls, or find and make it visible to a control on the front whose visibility has False?

    Thank you.

    It is documented in the help of LabVIEW.

    Hidden front panel display


    Perform the following steps to display a hidden front control or indicator. You can also hide the indicators and controls on the front panel.

    1. Find the terminal block schema for the object. "If you have multiple devices with the same type of data, right click on the terminals and select visible elements" Label in the context menu. Find the object with the label that corresponds to the object hidden façade.

    2. Right-click in the Terminal, and then select Show Control context menu if the object is a control or indicator to show if the object is an indicator.

    You can also use the Visible property to display the controls and indicators by program.

    You can also view all hidden front panel controls and indicators.

  • pause button on the front panel

    Hello.

    I try to run synchronous, continuous analog conversion of 2 cards of PXI-6259, and capture the State of the several digital at the same time.  I managed to get everything is configured and working properly, however I have a problem if the user presses the button "pause" on the front panel.

    From what I can tell, acquisitions of data will continue to run in the background (I'm using a task DAQmx and stop was never called).  For my analog inputs, this is not a problem.  However, the digital inputs always generate a ' 200010 - on-board memory overflow error. Due to the limitations of system and/or the bandwidth of the bus, the driver could not read data the device enough fast to follow the flow of the unit. »

    Is it possible to register for an event of user interface that is generated when the user presses the button "pause", so that I can stop the acquisitoin of data before the error occurs?

    Thanks in advance,

    -Rich

    I thought to add my own button "pause" / control, but my users have become accustomed to hitting the pause on the front panel button, and it will be difficult to get them to change.  I guess that the error would remind them :-)

    Well, that's easy to fix - change the appearance of window properties if the toolbar is not visible, while the code runs, and there will be a pause button for your users to click.

    Many of our applications have a function somewhat like this.  My colleague implementation in a very simple way: he put the graphical indicator within a box structure.  Connect a Boolean control "pause" to the structure of the case, and that's it.  Data acquisition runs constantly but will only update the chart when the pause button is false.  This approach might work for you?

  • The front panel scroll, based on the size of the monitor

    Hi guys,.

    I built an exe file of a VI on a labview having machine so that it can be run in another has no labview. The machine where I programmed the VI has a large 22 "monitor and so I put on my face as a result. The machine that will use the exe file has a screen size of 15 ", and some elements of the front panel are not accessible if I make an enlargement. However if I don't maximize the screen I can move the window to the edge and access controls. But it's so heavy. Is there a way I can add scroll bars to the VI while I can scroll the front panel?

    Thank you

    Of course.

    Scrolls bars are something that you can turn on (and are normally enabled by default) in the dialog box properties VI of VI.

    In addition, it is usually best to design your sign before and that it is effective for the smallest screen size you expect that it runs.

  • Is it possible to call a .exe (non-LabVIEW, such as Notepad) in a child windown on the front panel?

    I would like to launch a stand-alone .exe inside the front of my VI.  It is a piece of software by the provider of a sensor that I try to incorporate in my VI.  I was able to find how to call the .exe using the .NET constructor and invoke nodes.  However, the application opens in its own window.  Is there a way to run from a child window within the façade (ideally, within a tab on the front panel control)?

    I'm in LabVIEW 8.6.

    Thank you.

    I don't think that it actually works. My understanding is limited about this feature, but since I read it only works with the pop-up windows and windows that are already children. The application's main window is not a child window.

    I've done it before.  I have attached a simple example using Notepad.  Make sure that the notebook is already open no open files.  Since the example is not the position of the child window, the position relative to the window will be the same, because it is off the desk.  So, make sure the upper left corner of the Notepad is close to the origin of the desktop computer.

  • Best way to reset all controls on the front panel except one?

    Hello world

    I have an interesting problem, whereby I need to run successive tests using a test station which has several indicators on the front panel. At the end of each test, I need to reset all to default values, with the exception of a control (Test ID) who needs to keep his information - its value is used in an initialization status for test to ask for information from a database, so it can not be reset with the rest controls.

    I post all orders at a time using a reference ThisVI and VI Default Vals.Reinit All method, but this will obviously reset my control values (Test ID) as well. Any suggestions on how to keep properly or may store this information control while resetting all others. I can reset individually others but there is a little and more can be added as this system is developed.

    I don't really know what is the right way to proceed, and Labview has maybe one trick in his bag that I know to work around this problem.

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions,

    Alex

    Flank the node invoke with two nodes in the value property of the control to maintain the value. To the left we read as well as a right and the wires together. Connect three nodes with a thread of error to establish the order of execution.

    First reading place value on the wire, which is then written after the values have been reset to the default value.
