Simulated equipment

Hi all

I'm going to give lessons on the CVI programming soon, and if I have all ^ H ^ H most of the C/UIR ready stuff, I also want to show the interactions of material. I usually do all my communication of hardware under Linux, so I'm a little rusty with different codes. And also I don't have actual hardware very convenient.

So my question breaks down to: is it possible to simulate the material? The same system of pure software, or on a machine separate the cable flexible and appropriate.

Let's see the details:

-niDaqmx: I think that the answer is yes I recall using it once.

-USB to give an example of the use of VISA.

-Series. I guess I could run some program talk series on a separate computer with a crossover cable. Or in the simplest case, a null-modem bounce?

-GPIB. Identical to the series I guess.

Any advice?

Thank you.

Hello

As long as DAQmx is installed, you should have no trouble making a simulated device in Max just make sure that you simulate a device capable of what you're trying to do. An as the 6353 X series card should cover most of the bases (analog & digital I/O + meters).

USB, GPIB, and series all fall under VISA / Instrument control. Far from having one of these, a serial communication program, as you described is a good way to get hands on experience. You could also have do them a loopback test to demonstrate the basics.

Without doubt, the most important thing you can teach is where to find more information, once the class is over. Don't forget to let them know where they can find examples of navigation. In addition, IDNet is a good place to go for instrument drivers specific (and device specific examples in some cases). Most students don't remember everything a class, so they'll be much better if they know where they can find information later.

I hope this helps! Good luck with your class!

  • To use the computer with the different Flight Simulator equipment that is only compatible with 32-bit versions of Windows

    Original title: change the version of Windows

    I have a computer used only for Flight Simulator and is running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.  I want to use the computer with the different Flight Simulator equipment that is only compatible with 32-bit versions of Windows.  Is there a way I can upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit for Windows 10 32 bit and enjoy free upgrade of Windows 10?

    No, the upgrade program will replace existing windows with the same number of bits, 32 to 32 and 64 to 64.

    Even within the same version of Windows, passing from 32 to 64 and vice versa requires a clean installation.

  • Complete equipment of simulation using LabView, Multisim, and MAX (easy answer accepted!)

    Hello, all!

    Sorry, I'm new, but I checked around for a definitive answer on this, but I'm not 100% sure.  I learn LabView for a physics of upper-division course.  We use hardware (DAQ - MX) and a mixture of laboratory equipment - mainly stuff such as voltmeters, oscilloscopes and test setup with simple components.  I also work with NIM instrumentation, but that's secondary to my needs here.  So, when I'm away from the school, is it possible to make a complete simulation of my classroom work using LabView, Multisim (for my model) and the measurement and Automation Explorer (for the acquisition of data-MX)?  I know I can create a circuit and drop it in Labview, but I'm not sure on the acquisition of data.  I hope for what is a "seamless" reconstruction of what I do in class.  I can't take a simple 'yes' or ""; as long as I know it's possible, I can find the solution.

    Thanks for the help!

    I wrote 'sim' screws in many situations where I need to work away from the hardware store.  I think that MAX has a few features, but you may be limited in the types of signals, you can simulate.

    For my sim screw, I make a copy of the original VI with ".sim" added file name.  I also change the icon in a characteristic way to identify the version of the sim card on the BD. In this way the two VI have the same connector pane and are interchangeable on the BD structure. disable the diagram can be your friend here. Inside of the VI of sim, I generate the signal in any form I want.  You can also add additional if necessary controls.

  • Old Instrument NOR Simulator

    Hi all. I have an OLD NI instrument Simulator. It is so old, that I'm not still able to use the NI instrument Simulator Wizard. I called for the support and the technician was more useful however, whenever I run the wizard, it opens and alarm that reads "there was an error in location of the simulator of the Instrument OR." Make sure that the equipment is connected to this computer and in Setup mode. I have the 38-page manual that goes to this device. Simulator model number is #183913C-01. I am able to use NI MAX and use VISA Open Test Panel and run commands from there. The challenge is, I have to enter each command, whenever I want to use. I was hoping someone here knows these older model simulators. I posted a question here when I first bought the unit but was not familiar with the operation of it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.


  • NI 6509 simulation device

    Hello

    My question should be simple enough, but I have not found the answer.

    I have a NOR-6509 card and it should be possible, according to the different tutorial nor helper I've read, to simulate the device using MAX, without being connected to my laptop. The thing that would be very useful to develop portable applications c# on my computer when traveling away from the office.

    "Now with NOR-DAQmx 7.4 or higher, using simulated devices, you can develop, run, and troubleshoot data acquisition applications without going through the applicable material installed [...] A simulated NEITHER-DAQmx device is a replica of a device created by using the option OR-DAQmx Device simulated in the menu create new from MAX to a function or program without equipment. A device OR-DAQmx simulated behavior similar to a real device. Its driver is loaded, and use programs are fully verified... »

    The fact is that I can't do work at the same time, my request - for example, the application of WriteDigPort.exe provided with examples of dotnet 2.0 - and a device of NOR-6509 simulated by a task generated to simulate an output port Dev1/port 0 for example. I have a conflict error.

    I don't really see not how to simply check that my request goes to the value '1', for example, every bit of my virtual Dev1/port port 0 MAX and seeing the lights 'virtual '?

    Ditto for reading: how e chech with a simultaed device that my request is properly read a port that I set to a specific value?

    Thanks much for the reply!

    Hello

    You can read output simulated. The simulated device aims to offer the possibility to start the program without hardware; also with a simulation device, you can check if the syntax of your program is correct and check if the data you write meets the specifications for your motherboard.

  • No NOR-DAQmx eligible simulation device

    Hi all

    I am developing an application for a PXI-6132, but I don't have the equipment yet, so I would like to start this with a simulated device, unfortunately when I'm at MAX, I see no device at all to choose, so I was wondering what I can do and I can't wait for material to arrive.

    I don't want to spoil my installations OR so this is the reason why I ask through this support.

    I have attached a few photos on this problem.

    Any ideas?

    I have:
    -LabVIEW 8.6

    NOR-DAQmx 8.7.2

    Thank you very much in advance

    Gozto

    The real is to solve it (I realize) comes to update MAX, I was working with the MAX which was included with LabVIEW 8.6, so I downloaded NIDAQ930f2.exe and it worked.

    Now I am able to virtualize my devices.

    I hope this might help someone with the same question/problem.

    Good day.

  • Audit of Cisco equipment for my lab

    Hello

    I prepare lab at home and I bought some Cisco equipment and have some thoughts (doubts).

    1. How can I check if these facilities are new or reconditioned refurbished? provider says its new, but!

    2 - assuming that I am in the Middle East and the supplier brought the material, which means that in the case where if the equipment not intended to be sold in the Middle East, do I have no support from cisco "locally"?

    3-if its new brand, how can you check if this equipment is intended to be sold in my area?

    I tried on the cisco Web site, but find that I must be partner to get these details.

    A

    (1) it's not easy to tell by looking at the kit.  When the Cisco partner ordered the kit refurbished the number of partner usually a - RF at the end.

    (2) you get only supported if you have a Cisco, for example a SmartNet maintenance contract.  If you have that you have supported.

    (3) I don't think you could check this, unless it's something like kit WiFi which has a regulatory domain.  In this case the regulatory field is often embedded in the part number.

    If you have a machine with at least 8 GB of RAM (I prefer 12GB) and a quad core i7, then have you thought about using the official Cisco Simulator, VIRL?

  • Cannot use the browser Simulator

    It's weird. Ago, I installed a simulator of 9000 "BOLD" (4.6.0.126) and have been running and fine Eclipse debugging very well. Today, when I run the Simulator and try to establish a connection through the browser to test an OTA installation, I get an alert: "this is a Wi - Fi service. Please make sure that your device is equipped with an active WiFi connection and try again. "The MDS Simulator is running. I can't connect to any website at all (BlackBerry bookmarks, Google, etc.) with the browser.

    I tried fiddling with mobile phones and wireless networks options ad nauseam. I have re-installed the Simulator. I rebooted my machine. Without success. Other simulators seem to work fine (I can connect using the browser through MDS). It is just this "BOLD" simulator which seems to have problems.

    Any suggestions on how to fix it?

    Two suggestions:

    (a) start the WiFi on the device.  Just use the management of connections, Set Up WiFi and let the search - he wall find a default WiFi Service

    (b) check the default browser.  Options of--> advances... _ the browser.  Make sure that it is browser or BlackBerry Browser and not the HotSpot browser.

    Sounds like you just switched to Hotspot browser by default.  However, I tried just that myself and do not see the same symptoms.  So maybe not.  But anyway give it a try.

  • How to configure the COMPUTER strategies on Simulator

    Storm of BB JDE 4.7.0

    I try to load a .cod from SD card file, save it as a code module and get the descriptors to the application.

    I can read the file into a buffer, create the code module and get a handle invalid NULL (what seems). But when I call saveNewModule, I get a returned value of 4, I think it's CMM_MODULE_EXCLUDED.

    As a result, my next call to getApplicationDescriptors Gets an exception indicating that the argument is not valid (the handle).

    First, the call to saveNewModule returns a 4. The CMM_ state values are defined by a name, but not of value. Where are defined the values?

    Second, I suspect that it is because of the policy IT. What should be put in place in the Simulator to work. There are about 100 different things in your name authorization code download. I have no idea what those who must define and this than to ignore. I tried a few different configurations by going right to the bottom of the list, and it did not work. It should be a kind of it political to emulate a fully equipped device up and running.

    2 questions here...

    1. where are the values of State CMM_ defined by number for debugging purposes.

    2. how we set up the it policy in the Simulator to do what I'm trying to do.

    Thank you

    -Donald

    Never mind. It was because I had the wrong County when reading the code file... I was out of one.

    How can implement you not with Time Capsule and AirPort their simulation on the iMac?

    I don't know what you're asking.

    AirPort Extreme is a wireless router.

    A Time Capsule airport is an AirPort Extreme with a built-in hard drive for data storage.

    An iMac is a Mac computer.

    An iMac is not a wireless router, so he is unable to perform the functions of a wireless router.

  • [SOLVED] I lost my passwords recorded after the change of equipment

    I had to change my card motherboard and CPU, the other day and immediately after this incident, I seem to have lost all my passwords. The reason I'm sure this is because the only saved password comes from a site I only used after this incident. The only thing I had done recently, except for hardware change has updated firefox to 35.02.

    Even after restoring my signons3.txt to a version 4 months, not a single difference was made. Password Manager still has only a unique user name and password, rather than the many I had before. Other than the change of equipment, the boot partition and the players are the same, and nothing has been uninstalled. In addition, I don't know if it's related, but my logins.json file is 1 KB, while the logins.json.corrupt is 109KB. The passwords were saved in there? That I should give a try?
