The use of pins of status (4 outputs) and data (8 entries) of the parallel port pins at the same time.

Hi all

I'm a newbee in labview. As part of my project work, I need to get 8 digital inputs and send 4 digital outputs.so I think to use the Parallel Port on the pc.i can make use of 8 datalines for entries. I found the site NOR is it possible to use status for output pins. But is it possible to use status for output pins pins and data for entries to the time.please help even me also mention of the measures to take, or keep in mind while implementing.also include any example vi that could be useful.

Thanks in advance

I would recommed you to NOT use the parallel port. Now a day you have hardly a PC with parallel port. also if you have some old PC then most likely last version of LabVIEW (e.g. 2010) will need a lot more memory RAM and processor.

If you want a solution very very low cost then I would recommend using an arduino to that effect. You can then download LabVIEW Interface for Arduino and start working.

If you continue to use the parallel port, then you could try (I haven't worked with parallel port and have not tested the following solutions)

Download VIPM and then install the enclosed package. It will add the port e/s palette in your labview. and you can use it.

  • If I click on "PIN to the browser" the sensitive axis is unselected and vice versa. I need object "PIN at the top of the browser" and 'sensitive pine' work at the same time. Any suggestions?

    In the latest version of muse to adobe, I have me against "PIN at the top of the browser" and 'sensitive pine' work at the same time.

    Now if I choose an object and the axis 'browser', "sensitive pine" is unselected and vice versa.

    The need is for the header with the logo and menu bar to be pinned to the top of the browser, so that the page scrolls in the header bar.

    Now when I click on the sensitive left axis for the logo and the sensitive right pin for the navigation bar, the "pin at the top of the browser" gets deselected.

    Any suggestions or workarounds will be appreciated.

    Hi all

    Thanks for that bring to our attention. We will consider adding this feature in the future.

    RyanDoyle - it's an interesting hack you have found! Unfortunately, I wouldn't count on that it works like this in the future, as a bug which is to operate. If you drag the screen to change the width of the browser as a Muse, you'll see that the behavior of the elements in the status button (a menu, for example) is different from when exported. However, if you make a small change to your hack, so it should always work: set button "width sensitive" State instead. In addition, I don't see why all parts must be in separate to this job state buttons, but I've only tried a simple example myself.

    An another workaround I used is to create another, more breakpoint. For example, if I have a menu that is pinned to the top left of the browser in the dots stop, then in a breakpoint, I would pin in the center top of the browser. Normally, I wouldn't add more breakpoints, but there is a way that I found to work around the problem. Ryan workaround is perhaps the best way to go if you take my advice and use a status button sensitive width instead of the width of the browser.

    Hope this helps,

  • Lenovo L450 Dock Pro video output DVI and DP at the same time

    Hello

    I have L450 NB and Pro Dock station.

    I have question. Can I connect and use two monitors (1 - DVI, 2 - displayport)?

    In this link (https://support.lenovo.com/cz/cs/documents/pd029622) is writable:

    No, the DisplayPort and DVI Pro docking station port can be used at the same time. So, you need the Dock Ultra.

  • Satellite L550-117 - how to use VGA + HDMI at the same time?

    Hello
    I have a Satellite/Satellite L550 series Satellite L550 - 117.
    Can I use 2 monitors at the same time, using the function key (laptop screen + HDMI, VGA + HDMI, VGA, portable computer), but I would use "laptop screen", "VGA output" + "Output HDMI" at the same time (for example: to play a movie on an HD TV and work on the other two screens).
    I also want to play sounds on computer speakers 'and' an HDMI output, not the speakers for computer 'or' HDMI.

    Is it possible with this notebook and how?

    Thank you

    Hey Buddy,

    Good idea you have unfortunately it of not possible to use 3 monitors at the same time. You can use the internal monitor and an external monitor but not the two external monitors. This is not supported in the graphics card.

    Then, you use internal monitor, VGA connection or internal monitor + HDMI connection. That s what you can do.

  • Can PCI 6602:How I use digital lines of the Board of Directors and at the same time to generate trains of pulses by using a meter?

    Hello!

    My problem appeared when I tried to update my traditional NOR-DAQ legacy code to DAQmx.

    I use 2 meter (meter 5 and 7 meter) on PCI-6602, to generate trains of pulses, as well as the lines of e/s digital port 0 (the form lines from 0 to 7). What I do in my request, it's that I'm starting to generate the pulse train on the output of 2 meters and after that I play with the State of digital lines.

    Traditional, it was no problem to use the meters and digital lines at the same time, everything went perfectly, but in DAQmx, is not possible.

    What's happening: I start generating train of pulses on the output of counters, no errors, but when I try to change the State of a line of digital port the generation of the pulse train is stopped. What happens when I start the task associated with the digital way.

    My question is: is it possible to create a channel on digital lines without changing the channels created for meters?

    Another thing that I managed to do with the panels 'Measurement and Automation Explorer' and Test for PCI-6602, is basically the same thing, I generate trains of pulses on the output of the 7 meter and try to start a job on the digital line, but I get an error:

    "Error-200022 occurred in test Panel.
    Possible reasons:
    Measurements: Resource requested by this task has already been reserved by another task.
    Device: Dev4
    "Terminal: PFI8.

    On the contrary if I use the counter 0 or a counter 1 to generate trains of pulses I encounter the same problem.

    What resources are used by 2 to 7 of the PCI-6602 card counters and the counters to 0 and 1 do not use?

    Thanks in advance for any answer!

    Ciprian

    After doing some real tests on this device, I found that it is a normal behavior for the jury of 6602.  This is because when you start a task digital all 32 lines are configured for digital i/o, so it replaces your meter operation.  The article below the link explains a little more on this subject.  You must start the digital task before the task of counter to use the features of both in your program.

    2 meter and above will not work correctly when you perform digital i/o on NI 6601 or 6602

  • I have a DAQ Assistant configured to read several channels at the same time. When I have a graphical indicator of wire to the output, I see all my signals mixed together. How I divided them into separate signals?

    I have a DAQ Assistant configured to read 2 channels at the same time. When I have a graphical indicator of wire to the output, I see 2 signals mixed together. How I divided them into separate signals?

    When I wire any type of indicator, it is show that a release of a single channel.

    I want 2 indicators showing 2 different signals as expected from 2 channels configured. How to do this?

    I tried to use split signal but it end by showing that 1 out of 1 signal two indicators.

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes you are right. I tried, but I don't have the result.

    I just find the path. When we launch the split signal, we should expand it (split signal icon) by top, not the bottom. It took me a while to understand this.

  • How to get two outputs at the same time?

  • Continuous 5V output and signal of Stimulation at the same time

    Hello

    I'm out a constant signal to 5V to power a testbed and output a signal of stimulation (create a small magnetic field, etc.) at the same time.  I try to use DAQassistant with several output channels, but I can't fix an AO0 data set and the other set of data in AO1. Please notify; my code is up to this home.

    Thank you!

    Emily

    Many DAQ cards provides a constant voltage of + 5V output.  DAQ hardware do you use, and there a such output?  If so, use instead.  It will manage a current higher than an analog output.  The analog output lines are not designed to power no matter what, they are purely for signalling.

  • Using the DAQ USB-6009 meter and an analog input voltage at the same time.

    Hello

    Currently, I'm reading the two channels of voltage with the USB-6009. It happens that one of the channels is the output of a digital coder, and it would be much easier to use it directly to the PFIO entry that is defined as a counter. The problem I am facing right now, it's that I can't use the DAQ Assistant to use the analog voltage to a channel and the digital channel counter at the same time. Once I put the DAQ Assistant to read the input from analogue voltage, I won't be able to add analog inputs. And as I put the DAQ Assistant to use the PFIO as a counter, I can add more entries to read analog voltage is.

    I wonder if it is possible to solve this problem using the lower level data blocks? Another solution would be to read two channels in analog input voltage and that the use of Matlab to process data resulting from it, since I was not able to do the counting to work simultaneously with the acquisition in Labview to impulses.

    Hope you guys can help out me.

    Thanks in advance.

    Using a simple wizard of DAQ is incorrect. You need one to acquire analog inputs and one for the meter.

    You can't unless you have the ability to use surround sound and then most of the time that the outputs are quite different for the surround speakers.  The a (normally green) jack is for the main speakers and other receptacles are for the individual surround speakers.  If you are using before (helmet) and taken back normally when something is plugged into the front jack rear taking is disabled.

    Yes.  For example, I have my Skype phone calls go to my helmet (normal just plugged in the headset) while my media player plays my speakers.  You can choose your default communication or multimedia devices with a right click on the volume control icon and choosing "playback devices".

    Other programs can also be built to be "to the output current" and allow you to choose the output too.

  • How to use HDMI and plug headphones at the same time?

    I'm running to a HDMI projector (via a HDMI-DVI adapter) for video and Composite (red & white RCA) using the socket for headphones and a splitter cable to a receiver of older Theater-in-a-box type for audio. But when I plug the HDMI, the headset turns off - no sound. I've seen people describe the ways to solve this problem for older versions of Windows, but I have Windows 8 and I'm unable to find. Thank you

    Michel,

    Apparently, it is not possible to output sound via the HDMI and the headphone jack at the same time.  But if you want to watch the video via HDMI and listen via the headset follow these steps:
    Right click on the speaker icon in the task bar > left, click playback devices > right-click on HDMI > disable.
    It works for me.

  • Direct DB request - Connect 2 patterns using 2 pools of connections at the same time?

    Hi all

    Will be "Request for Direct database" feature allows to connect to two pools of connections at the same time?

    Output report is based on the UNION of two select statements from two schemas, two pools of connections are created to access two schematics

    First select statement comes from a single schema and second select statement just forming the other

    Select Column1, Column2, Column3 from A, B, C
    UNION
    Select column4, column 5, column6 of X, Y, Z

    A, B, C paintings come from the first schema and X, Y, Z come from another

    How to get the above out put using "application for Direct database"

    Kind regards
    SMA

    It is a very bad idea. If you connect to the same base, then it will be much better to simply synonymous and grants between the schema1, schema2 objects so that you can use a single connection. You query will go much quicker since the BI server do not have to run separate queries to stich together data. If the data are two different databases, it is advisable to do some ETL and group all the data in your Data Warehouse database.
