to detect if the USB is connected or not in labview

I want to detect if the USB is connected or not using labview

Hello

A simple method you can use to list out the folders on your computer.

If no key USB is connected to your computer, you will get the name of pen drive.

First download all the number of readers. Constant than this value if the next time with your USB drive, you get the number of elements is longer then one fixed, then you can say external peripheral is connected with the PC.

Maybe this is not the standard method to detect the device, but it may solve your problem.

Thanks and greetings

  • Ignore the page "this connection is not approved" - no time no question

    My apologies if this has already been answered, but when I search almost all solutions are supposed to check your system time or run anti-malware software. I'm almost certain that this has nothing to do with the time system and moderately sure isn't because of malware.

    When I'm on the corporate network, I have to constantly go through the page "this connection is not approved" and go through the steps starting with "I understand the risks". When I look at the certificate, it looks like, it is delivered by our company IT Department. For me, that's good, because the pages that I'm going to are not sensitive for me.

    For example, when I go to http://google.com, for some reason any it redirects to https. Even if I think it's nice that google is on the lookout for me and a encrypting my traffic, it becomes annoying to many mouse clicks in firefox to do a simple google search to do my job.

    You must request the certificate root of the proxy server used by your corporate network to connect to the internet.

    Hello

    [When you install Microsoft Windows XP by using a floppy drive USB on a player who]

    installation. When Windows XP searches the driver of the second time, he will not be able to see
    the floppy USB drive drive and prompts the user for the driver (RAID) again.
    The installation will never reach this point. ]

    Solution:

    This is a limitation of Microsoft, the Floppy Drive are do not appear in the file Windows 'txtsetup.sif.

  • Satellite A30 does not start with the USB device connected at boot time

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A30 and sometimes it does not start.
    After turning on, not even the BIOS starts.
    even if sometimes the BIOS starts, but the OS does not load.

    I figured out that its related to USB devices connected at boot time.
    If no USB devices are connected, it starts without a problem.
    Even if the start-up is suspended, as soon as you unplug start it BIOS USB devices.
    Its ok to connect USB devices later, once the system has started.
    I disabled "removable devices boot" and "network startup."
    just in case, but it makes no difference.

    BIOS is version the most recent (1.70) and it comes up with all kinds of USB devices.
    printer, mouse and (self-powered) external USB hard disk.

    Is this a known issue?
    There is no known workaround solution?

    Hello

    I put t know why this happens, but it has to do with the BIOS.
    The same thing happened on my old laptop. I couldn't start my unit while the USB printer has been turned on and connected.
    The only solution is to disconnect the external USB device during the boot process.

    RSY you should check if the order of boot in the BIOS has been on the HARD drive first.

  • Try to detect when the USB cable is plugged

    I used the USBPortListener to try to get an indication when the USB cable is plugged into the phone, and also when it is cut. The problem is that a single function never gets pulled, and that is 'getChannel', whenever I have data on the connection.

    Obviously, I must have been a misunderstanding on how to use this listener, but I woud take "wired" lights whenever the cable is plugged in, even with "disconnected".

    I think you want to use a system for this listener

  • How can I disable the warning "this connection is not approved", which appears almost each time I try to go to a Web page via Firefox? I use 10 64-bit Windows.

    I just upgraded to 10 64-bit Windows. The version of Firefox that works now on this OS regularly displays a blocking window that told me that "this connection is not approved" when I try to connect to a third-party site. A screenshot of the window copy is attached. How to disable this warning? I can't continue to use Firefox if I can't find the 'off' switch, which so far has escaped me.

    Yes, this is the feature, and it is lit.

    How it works, is that ESET intercepts all your browser connections to filter the content. If it is an HTTP connection, it is transparent. For an HTTPS connection, ESET must present a certificate of 'false' for Firefox site so it can be the "man in the middle" and decipher and read the answer (otherwise, it's gibberish, of course).

    ESET is supposed to insert his signature certificate in both the Windows certificate store (used by IE and Chrome) separated from Firefox AND the browser certificate store accepts the false certificates. But it does not always work. In this case, you can import the certificate manually in Firefox. If all goes well, which has been covered in the manual, but otherwise it's basically along these lines:

    (1) search or save a copy of the ESET signature certificate (it is a file in DER format that usually has the .cer extension). Is your second screen shot what appears when you click View Certificate? Try this:

    • Click the Details tab, click the button "Copy to File. This will start the Export Wizard.
    • In the wizard, choose the DER format and save in a suitable location (for example, your Documents folder).

    (2) import the file into Firefox as follows:

    • In Firefox, open the Certificate Manager to:
      "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced > mini-onglet Certificates > "view certificates" button.
    • Click on mini - the References tab, then on the 'Import' button and find the DER file. Note: I suggest allowing the certificate for websites only.

    I have attached a few screenshots of reference sample.

  • Iconia W510 hold the Windows to connect does not

    I have a W510 Iconia, I just put in place. I guess that after some windows updates the home screen has changed because now it's asking me to "and hold down Windows button and press the button to connect.» When I turned on the tablet before I could just slide the screen up and present the login screen. I do not have a keyboard with this tablet, and I can't get the sign on screen to display. No matter how I try, by pressing the Windows and then pressing the power button does nothing. Is there a way to get around this?

    Nevermind, I solved this. This is another way to say press ctrl + alt + delete to connect. I had to use the ease of access on the Welcome screen to bring up a keyboard on the screen, and then press ctrl + alt + delete keyboard on the screen to bring up the login screen.

  • The USB keyboard lights can not be clarified when return to the system of stand-by

    The LED may light not on, when return to stand-by on Vista32/Vista64 system.

    Steps to follow:

    1. plug the USB keyboard on USB port of the system, make sure that the LED (NumLock, caplock and stop scroll) are States
    2. make the system in stand by
    3. press a button for the system to be back
    4 check the lights (shift caps lock, NumLock, scroll), the lights are off State - has failed. At that time, the caps lock Numlock/function/sroll lock are still usable and normal.

    5. If you click on one of the main (Caps Lock NumLock, locking Sroll), the LEDs will be renewed normally.

    Note1: The question to not happen on Windows XP and Windows 7. The windows vista USB CATC, send a reset signal and do not send lighting LEDs commond once again, but W7/XP don ' have the reset signal.

    Note 2: The question may reduplicate on some keyboards, for example, MS Reclusa Gamiing keyboard (using the Hub IC of Cypress).

    Note3: And we can encounter the problem on the back of hibernation, the LEDs be clarified on, end user must click these buttons to wake up the LEDs.

    You know the rootcase, if it is MS vista limitaion?

    Hi Bluekang,

    Thank you for your message.

    What is the make and model of your computer? Desktop or laptop machine?

    When Stand By resumeing, power settings can sometimes affect the State of the device as it back to normal.

    I recommend that you check your Power Options > Adanced settings > USB suspend setting > disable

  • Tecra A8: Problem with the USB printer connected to the Port Replicator III

    Hi all

    I have a problem with my Tecra A8, year Advanced Port Replicator III and a USB printer. With the printer connected to a USB port on the Port Replicator, I have to wait 2 minutes for printing to start. When it is connected directly to a USB port on the laptop and the laptop disconnected from the Port, printing starts immediately. I have the latest drivers from the Isensys of Canon LBP 2900 installed and Windows Vista professional as the operating system.

    I called the technical support of my country, but her is not recorded similar problems.

    A person with similar problem? Some help would be very appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Seems like a strange question... Already done the standard procedure in the event of such errors? :)

    The standard procedure is somehow similar to the following:

    -Update your BIOS
    -Update all the drivers for your machine
    -Update your printer drivers
    -Update your operating system

    If all else fails, then try an another Portrep if available, maybe you need to contact your dealer for an another portrep for the test.

    Something like this should be your way. And then you sucessfully made a TROUBLESHOOTIN´ ;)

    I'd be happy to hear feedback from you on your situation...
