• Is it possible to start the gateway of 2014 VeriStand using LabVIEW 2014 programmatically?

  Hello

  There is a reload of the Is-there-a-possibility-to-start-the-VeriStand-2011-SP1-Gateway because what worked in 2011 SP1 is no more in 2014.

  I've worn the code in the previous topic, do the same thing (calling "__cdecl Int32 StartVeriStandGateway (excluding handle Int32)" in "C:\Program Files (x 86) \National 2014\Data\NationalInstruments.VeriStand.Gateway.dll".)

  Do this from a .NET (console process or windows) program or directly from a node DLLS in LabVIEW 2014 seems to have no effect, knowing the .NET code worked in 2011 even when it is called from a Windows service.

  Is there a new way to do it?

  Moreover, the "NationalInstruments.VeriStand.WindowsRegistry.GetInstallationDirectory ()" method disappeared from assemblies.

  Best regards

  I remember before I saw this. There was a problem where the dll cannot run in the UI thread, but has no way to specify any thread, but the LabVIEW user interface thread. So, the solution was to put DLLS in a sub - VI, value than Subvi to run in the 'standard' thread and calls the value of the call to the DLL to run in any thread. See attachment.

• publish a report xml with LabVIEW

  All,

  I'll try to find a solution to my problem and I hope someone out there has an idea for me to try.

  My problem is I want to launch a test .xml report (which was created with TestStand) using LabVIEW for a user to view/print.  I created a simple vi of drop-down lists for a user to select the report that they want to see and I spent one way; the problem is that I do not know how launching this .xml in a kind of Viewer, my idea was to use internet explore, because it's the print controls, but the only function I can find to help "Open a URL in the default browser" and the error I see is attached (looks like I sends you something he dislikes) (, so I don't know if this feature is available for what I need because the links of my path to my files correctly with windows Explorer).

  A bit of history, I'm basically just trying to restrict the user to only view reports and not navigate around in my directories and then add this control to my operator TestStand Interface (I use the simple interface for TestStand 2012), its as simple as that.

  My question has 2 components:

  (1) anyone would be able to start on the path to open a xml report in Internet Explorer using LabVIEW?

  (2) does anyone know of a better way to solve this problem?

  Thank you

  Bill

  You can use a container of the WebBrowser .NET - believe it will display XML without problem, and then you can simply call the method 'print '.

• Programmatically insert step of ActiveX/COM using LabVIEW

  Hello

  I would like to be able to create sequences like the one set using LabVIEW.

  This sequence has only 2 steps, a LabVIEW VI call and an adapter of ActiveX/COM call.

  I was able to do using an adaptation of the code here: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-36337

  However, I am struggling to add the step of the ActiveX/COM.

  Any help would be welcome.

  Thank you

  Of course, there is a way, if you look for it

  Since you have an existing 'Step' class object, you can also get a 'Module' object for her. Subsequently, you will need to specify that it is an ActiveX module. If you do not know which - probably you need to get the object 'map' somehow... Our case is simpler, so just cast to the ActiveX module and... to set certain properties like ServerId, ActiveXReferenceExpr and so on.

  I've attached an example for you. Interesting thing is the ServerId - I just read this chain of the TS for similar action and reused it here so do not ask me how to get automatically

  You will need to complete your 'properties' as 'file' - but I'll gracefully leave this work for you =.

• VI LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit elements in a TestStand sequence does not work with a LabVIEW 8.5 run-time engine

  Hi all

  I'm using LabVIEW 8.5.1 and TestStand 4.1. I did a sequence TestStand with a VI in this document, which uses items Report Generation Toolkit. On my machine I use LabVIEW and TestStand development system license. On another machine I use TestStand with basic deployment license and I chose the LabVIEW 8.5 run-time engine in the Configuration of the adapter. Everything works well except this VI with elements of Report Generation Toolkit. The error message shows that the VI is not executable. It works well only after I installed with a trial license and selected LabVIEW LabVIEW 8.5 development system in the Configuration of the adapter.

  I found other posts and a document in the knowledge base with a similar problem: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/8A0E6274D9BD7B1986256F62006AD402?OpenDocument but I am not no EXE files in my sequence, so I do not know how to fix mine. Someone has an idea?

  
  

• Go to the PHP website using Labview 8

  Hi people,

  I'm writing a vi LV8 to retrieve data from a Web site. The first site I've played with just had a text output so a simple:

  -OpenTCPConnection (for 'www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov')

  -WriteTCP:

  -line 1: 'GET heat_index_MEAN/hitable_east.txt '.

  -line 2: "" Host: www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov".

  -line 3:

  -ReadTCP

  It worked perfectly fine.

  But this isn't really the data I want. I want the data displayed on the Web site:

  http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?W0=t&W1=TD&W2=Hi&w3=sfcwind&w3u=1&W4=sky&W5=pop&W6=RH&W7=th... 96 & textField2 =-77.48167 & site = all & unit = 0 & dd = 0 & bw = 0

  But, when I try the same calls I get the error messages like:

  Query HTTP/1.0 400 Bad server: AkamaiGHost Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/html Content-Length: 216 Expires: Sunday 12 August 2012 17:40:25 GMT Date: Sunday 12 August 2012 17:40:25 GMT connection: close

  I don't know enough about HTML or PHP to tell if I have a HTML or PHP problem; and what I have to understand to move forward. More precisely:

  -can you tell if it is a PHP or HTML problem in my code?

  -If Yes, which?

  -I can access a Web site (which uses PHP) LabVIEW?

  -what I have to learn more about PHP to proceed?

  -J' tried to send a command "OPTIONS" of HTML, but I received very similar eror messages (not a quesstion)

  -the site has an XML option that displays data as text/XML, but it also seems to use PHP, if I get the same errors with my code (not an issue)

  -any ideas on how to use labview to read data from this site?

  Thank you, in advance...

• Use the handler programmatically

  Hello, I use the Labview 8.2.1 and I would like to ask a question on the event handler.

  I have a few buttons and I use an event handler to perform their tasks. The buttons are used only with the mouse and not by program.

  Now, I want to use a button programmatically without support. I have not found how to do this, so I created a Boolean variable and I added to the handler of a button a second 'event specifier' of this Boolean variable with the event "change value".

  I just assumed it would work, but is not, in other words, the event handler is not used when the value of the Boolean variable changes.

  How can I solve it?

  Thank you in advance.

  Write in the node (Sgnl) Value property of the variable you want to change.  This will trigger an event programmatically.

  

• Determine what are the cards OR are installed on a computer using Labview

  Hello people,

  I hope that it is a matter appropriate for this forum.

  Is there a way to programmatically determine the cards OR are installed in a computer using Labview?  We have a limited number of test for material Exchange computers sometimes.  I would like to write a collection of Labview applications to know what hardware is installed and then perform some configuration based on the hardware settings.

• date of reading of hurt to excel using the report generator tool kit

  Hello
  Im trying to read a date from an excel worksheet by using the report generator tool. I talked about this http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/01B026BEB54E3414862571B600618827 KB and it works... kind of.

  My dates are all read next 4 years and 1 day. Can't really understand why?

  Any ideas would be appreciated!

  Thank you
  David

  The format of the time in LabVIEW is distinguished by the time format in Excel. If you simply convert the timestamp cluster double
  and paste that data into Excel, it won't make sense. This is because the Excel format is based on the number of days
  Since January 1, 1900. The time of LabVIEW is based on the number of seconds elapsed since January 1, 1904. Converts this vi
  LabVIEW to Excel time time. reverses the logic of switch from excel to labview

• How to use Labview to send commands to Excel on data analysis

  Hello, here's my situation:

  I have a Labview VI that reads data from various sensors and uses the report generation tool to send all the data values to Excel. Because each race is ~ 8-10 hours long and there is tons of data, I'm not worth it to store them in a table in my VI.

  However, in my Excel report I would like to include some statistics, like the initial report, max and min values of all the data from these points. Should what kind of command I send my VI to get Excel to do this? Or would it be easier to do within Labview instead?

  Thanks to anyone who can give some advice!

  Hello, Kalyie!

  Puneet.Kapoor is indeed correct, you can create an Excel macro and call from LabVIEW. An example of this in LabVIEW under help > find examples. When searching for "Excel", you will find 'Excel Macro example.' It would be more useful for the automation of your functions, or if you try to do more complex operations on your data in Excel (min and max are simple relativelty, however).

  As we have also seen, it may be easier to work with the data once it is in excel, using the '(Max) =' and the functions '= Min ()' - the choice is yours!

• How to use the report generation tool to get a list of bookmarks in a Word template

  I'm working on a project where I need to use the report generation tool to fill a fairly long Word template. MS Office report Express VI can have entries for a maximum of 17 bookmarks that is not close enough to what I need to do.

  I wonder if there is a way to use the lower level screws report generation to read the word template and return a list of the names of bookmark in the form of a table 1 d of string. The dialog box that allows you to implement the Express VI has this ability, but I'm not finding a way to scan the document programmatically.

  I'm sure I can't be the first person to encounter this problem and I hope someone out there has found a good solution.

  Found the answer to this one that I was looking for the forums. Apparently, you can do this directly through everything in the VI report tool, but there is a VI in Wordsub.llb do that.
