Usability is NOR-SCOPE Soft Front Panel for the PXI-5154?

I am plans to use the PXI-5154 with his NO-SCOPE Soft Front Panel in a product to test instrumentation. Our past experience, our users need an on-board scope that is easy to use which does not load the CPU. In most cases the scope will be used to check a transitional type of pulses. So, the amplitudes and rise times are essential to ensure compliance with ISO standards. The ability to capture, store and recall traces of reports is important, as well as the ability to perform simple and reproducible follow-up measures. We don't expect our users to have to program the scope; "give me the waveform.

Does anyone have any comments on the usability of the NOR-SCOPE Soft Front Panel? How to compare with other soft scopes?

Hello!

The scope Soft Front Panel is very user friendly and able to load/save waveforms, Load/Save settings and make the scalar measures.  I've attached a screenshot of what the front soft worn looks as well as a link to a help document on the high speed digitizer HELP.  Information on the scope Soft Front Panel lies in this document and can be found under the tab content in the configuration tree (NI - Scope Soft Front Panel help).

  • Need the block diagram of NOR-SCOPE Soft front Panel


    I doubt that the code that is available - it can not even be written in LabVIEW.  Examples of NO-SCOPE that are provided with LabVIEW (look in the Finder example under hardware input and output-> Modular Instruments) illustrate all the available functions, and it can be an example that works as a starting point for you.

  • OR-SCOPE Soft Front Panel errors

    I can't capture a square wave 10 kHz using NOR-SCOPE FPS.  The error that I get for the manual config and auto-setup is-200580 requested is not a valid Vertical offset.

    Max test panel can capture the signal without errors.

    My setup is PXI-5154 Slot3, chassis PXI-1031DC, Windows Vista, LabVIEW 2009, MAX 4.6.0f1.  Entry test square wave 10 kHz, 4Vp - p connected to Ch0 BNC 5154.

    Hi bmann,.

    What is the descriptor of the resource able & Automation Explorer (MAX) for this device?  Is it the same as other devices that were previously on your system?

    The 5154 can't stand the vertical offset, but other devices (for example the 5152) support vertical offset.  The NO-SCOPE Soft Front Panel (SFP) will use the resources descriptor to identify devices.  If no configuration is not found for a device with a particular resource descriptor, then the FPS will run an automatic configuration on the device.  However, if the FPS is a previous corresponding configuration with the same resource descriptor, it will attempt to use this same configuration.  This is where I believe you can receive the error.

    If you have a 5152, you can check the "vertical offset" parameter in the "Device setup" window - looks like this is the setting that attempts to commit to the 5154 the SFP and the NOR-SCOPE driver is throwing this error.  For a 5152, this parameter should appear, but the 5154 this setting should not appear.

    Could you try to re - appoint the device in your system for something unique?

    Let me know if it helps.  If not, it could be another question - let me know what version of the driver NOR-SCOPE you have installed if this is the case.

  • OR scope Soft Front Panel fails to load

    Hello

    I use the scope Soft Front Panel OR with my USB NI 5132 for some time successfully. However, recently it has stopped working completely - seems to load a bit then fails before you even open the screen. The same thing happens in MAX I did all the updates critical, uninstalled then reinstalled NI Scope, uninstalled Labview (the only thing I had changed after the last time, I know that it worked successfully) and checked the nitaglv.dll library was in the right place according to this post: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/63739991438EC593862579C6007301EC

    So far nothing's worked. I NI SCOPE 4.0 and NI-VISA 5.3.0 installed, and the computer could see successfully the digitizer USB 5132 Max after the relocation OR scope, well that the flexible façade does not always load and making the Panel test Max also does not.

    I have attached a picture of the screen to load before it disappears so that could provide clues.

    Suggestions?


  • LabVIEW version of the source code of the NOR-DCPower Soft Front Panel

    I work with an SMU NI PXI-4130. There is a front panel soft exe called the "NOR-DCPower Soft Front Panel" that can be used to control the instrument. I was wondering if there is a version of LabVIEW source code for this driver?

    Jim,

    as much as I know there is no LV source code provided for the Soft Front Panel. But there are a few examples of LV, which will be close to the characteristics of the SFP. So I suggest to you to dig in the examples you find in the Finder of the example.

    hope this helps,

  • OR-SCOPE Soft Front Panel

    Hey!

    How can I include the "impedance" and "Probe atténuation" options at the front view of NOR-SCOPE?

    Now, this option run "Edit-online Device Configuration"!

    Thank you

    Patrick

    Hi Patrick,

    the soft front panels are demo applications for our various modular instrument drivers. We do not distribute their code, nor can you change their GUI.

    If you are programming with LabVIEW I would recommend that you build your own version of a scope to start with an example of our example search tool (help-> find examples). A good starting point would be the Acquisition of niScope configured EX example which also gives you a good overview of how to use the scope pilot.

    If you have more specific questions do not hesitate to ask!

    Best regards

  • OR DC Soft Front Panel, minorbug, small bug with the PXI-4110

    Hello

    The NI DC Soft Front Panel V14.0, with the PXI-4110, scrolling to negative tension, works as expected to-10V, but then returns to 0. If we change from - 1V procedure, it goes...-8-9,-10, -1, -2... instead of-8-9,-10, -11, -12...

    Everything about her, a simple thing that I miss is a switch for all three voltages.

    (Also, IMO, it would be logical for negative tensions with the arrow pointing down, not more).

    Hello Janaf,

    I completely agree with two of your statements, I tabled a report of corrective measures that you can monitor in the next versions of DCPower to see if this is fixed with the FPS. CAR number: 512257

    I've added notes that only manual insertion of numbers - less than 10 works and that it was not logical to use arrow increment or upward arrow to reduce the output voltage.

  • OR SWITCH Soft Front Panel

    Hello

    I have a few questions in the following way:

    1. After installing the Switch Executive 3.6 (evaluation software), I have very large window for OR Soft Front Panel SWITCH to cover all 4 monitors. It is difficult to see. Do I have to uninstall 3.6 Executive switch (software evaluation)? We don't need that much. Is it safe to uninstall?

    Could you give me the solutuion to configure on the previous setting the Soft Front Panel, released only to a single monitor.

    2. what the Panel "pxi-2720" test should be at MAX? If I click on the test Panel, 'Switch Panel Soft' appears with the topology - '2720-independent? It looks like swich instead of test programmable resistance. Is - this Panel good criterion for pxi-2720?

    3. for NI PXI 2571, I SH200LFH-4xDB50F-C cable to connect to the terminals and tested the switches. I found the NO0 (P1 pin2) - COM0 (P1 pin1) connection is not working while others work. That is reserved by something else? I have test by exchanging terminal blocks, but the result was the same.

    I'm waiting for your answers.

  • Switch Soft Front Panel, active device classified

    I have a with PXI chassis modules, two switches PXI-2350.  Using the Soft Front Panel switch, it seems that the names assigned to the list of active device (both 2350's in this case) are backward, what to expect.  Is there a way to reassociate those names to the 2350's physics?

    Thank you

    Confustus,

    It's an interesting question that I've never seen before, your devices in a Soft Front Panel should be linked to features like labels in MAX. I was wondering, when you say "we can select using MAX, a road that connects the power supply to the digital multimeter using"Switch 1"(for example), and we can see the voltage reading show on the Soft Front Panel 4071 as planned", what you mean exactly? If you had to choose your hardware device, and then click test panels, the NI Soft Front Panel load switch. Are you saying that when you choose test panels and loading Switch Soft Front Panel of max works as expected, however the application outside opening MAX does not work?

    Or are you talking about the Test panels you open in NI Switch Executive? The test for NI Switch Executive panels refer on behalf of virtual device NI Switch Executive, not the DAQmx device name. If you had named the name of the NI Switch Executive virtual device in the same way, that could be part of the confusion of the problems that you see. See the images below:

    NEITHER DAQmx Test selection panel that leads upward.

    Test NI Switch Executive Panel allows this. If these names are similar, I can see how that might be confusing.

  • Outsourcing of the controls on the front panel for a panel floating Subvi

    Hello!

    I already found a few similar topics, but I still don't know which is the best way to solve my problem. I will try to describe my problem in detail first: I have a main VI that acquires data from a device and displays these data in a large waveform graph. I have also a few controls on the front panel to control my device. First, I placed all of these device controls (digital, sliders, etc.) as well as the chart inside the front of my main VI. However, due to limited screen space now I would like to make the largest possible graph and so decided to "outsource" some controls out of the main façade of VI to several panels front-end Subvi.

    I would then press a button in my main VI and it would open the Panel before the floating of the Sub - VI corresponding with outsourced controls when required. However, everything must be absolutely transparent. It is important that floating panels to run in parallel with my main VI, that is the main VI must continue to operate. That way I'll have my data constantly updated in the chart in my main VI while I can change some settings of the device through the controls placed in my SubVIs. These changes will be immediately applied (for example as soon as the main VI calls this slot - VI in its main loop).

    It is important to the visibility of the outsourced optional control panel, i.e. If the Subvi front panel opens with the user that it will pop up and the user will be able to change the paramers device using the. But then the user should be able to close the front panel (hide) the Subvi to see the entire chart again without the Panel floating in front of her (of course control values must be maintained when the Subvi front is not visible). Then the new button is pressed in the main VI that opens the dialog box not modal Subvi containing controls and it can redefine new values of device.

    Advice how to do this are welcome. I don't know if I need something complex like VI server or asynchronous screws or I can solve my problem by changing some settings simple Subvi? Thank you in advance for your help!

    Best regards

    How about using a global variable for the VI at VI communication instead of a queue?

    A global variable will, also.  Write you in one place and read the value frequently to somewhere else (in the election). So you can see easily to any value change.  However, mark will waste a lot of time processor.  This is why I have proposed to use a queue or a notification utility.

    Would be the last option that you mentioned, i.e. finish the Subvi at each change of value, I would keep the Subvi front open as needed until things from the user to hide? Or would there be inevitable flickering Panel or any other drawbacks?

    Yes, the Subvi can keep the façade open until the user closes. And there should be no flickering.  The biggest drawback I see right now is that when you expect an event in the Subvi, the mainVI cannot stop without talking to the Subvi to stop.  So you'll need another channel of communication (again a global, a queue, a declarant or an event) to tell the Subvi that she must stop.

  • Copy-paste an object of front panel to the same xy location

    Hello

    Just a practical question, but I would need very often this kind of functionality:

    How can I copy - paste an object of front panel to the same location? Lets consider the I have a TAB container, and on the first page, I have a chart. I would like to make a graph even on the second page tab, but at the same XY location compared to the TAB container.

    Thank you very much!

    HM, I just realized, there is an option 'double page' for the TAB containers and it's magic for me, creates the exact copy of all the objects

  • Want 5530: want to scan from the front panel of the printer computer

    Hello

    I am not able to use the scan to computer function from the front panel of the printer to a PC recently updated.

    On the front panel, I press 'Scan', then 'computer '. The name of the computer to which I want to scan is listed, so I select it. The scan preview screen appears then I press 'analysis '. After a standby display told me that the computer does not have to check the cable, etc...

    The PC is turned on, and the connected user.

    Printer is connected directly to the PC via USB cable.

    PC operating system is Windows 64-bit 10.

    Printer is 5530 want all-in-one.

    HP Print and Scan Doctor no problem.

    I tried with a disabled firewall.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled several times (using a new download of HP).

    When I open the printer software 'manage the scan' is not listed (only the Scan item is 'search for a Document or a picture", that works).

    Test page will print from PC.

    Another PC (running Windows 8.1, connected via a network) seems to work.
