Use of LabView for exploitation of Bosch Rexroth HCS01

Hello people,

I am a student assistant and my current project is to complete what was launched in a work of degree more than a year ago: to build an experimental platform to test the effect of superconductivity on maglev technology. Part of this experimental platform is a precision three-rail network operated by compact inverters HCS01 (IndraDrive Cs) by Bosch Rexroth.

My question is: is it possible to use LabView to operate the three axes of a central VI?

I have already connected all three compact inverters to a computer and I am able to operate using most Ds-startup-easy mode, but I can only operate separately and not of a single window.

Thanks in advance, any help would be appreciated!

Greetings,

Paul Masuch

Hello world

I just found this forum article on control components Rexroth with LabView and as a representative of Rexroth, I disagree that West no way is easier to control than using Ethernet/IP.

We have an official partnership with National Instruments, and offers a complete Package of VI for all our components (IndrDrives and IndraControl automata) to access all the features of a PLC or lead of Bosch Rexroth. This is possible thanks to our Open Core of Bosch Rexroth and our open approach we take with our automation components. For controllers the VI contains more than 850 screws to communicate directly from your LabView execution to the controller. These packages are completely free for you and you can download the packages from our Web site

http://www.boschrexroth.com/OCE

(access after registration in our network in engineering).

In addition it s also possible to control our readers a cRIO OR using the Council of Europe.

Here's a sneak peek of our open main Interface feature. There are SDKS for several languages of programming and several technologies including National Instruments Soft - and hardware.

So you see, West don't need to learn PLC programming, when you want to connect LabView to Automation from Rexroth.

If you have any trouble Don t hasitate to contact me!

    Welcome to the community of LabVIEW FPGA. We will need more information about your project needs specific to suggest the current material, but in general, NOR has a wide variety of reconfigurable hardware to choose from. LabVIEW FPGA can also target several academic councils of the Xilinx University program.

    LabVIEW FPGA does not support Verilog directly as a top-level for the import file. However, if you wrap the verilog in a thin fascade VHDL, it will work since Xilinx knows how synthesize/simulate mixed models.

  • What to enter in the "Session of" while doing a VI in labview for inspection... using vbai?

    I want to do a VI for the purpose of inspection using Labview 8.6.
    I am a beginner and I want to know what is meant by session in 'Vbai open inspection'...?
    I use a usb for aquistion camera!

    The open inspection VBAI is a session to a VBAI engine. If you want to perform the inspection on your PC, use the launch room. engine VBAI VI to start a local VBAI engine, then use the VI VBAI to connect to connect to the engine and then you can load inspections, run them and retrieve images of results. See the example for navigation in your VBAI under the API examples/LabVIEW directory. You will need to have an inspection already registered using the ordinary VBAI executable. Make sure that the executable file is closed before you try to use the inspection with the LabVIEW API because a process can use the camera at the same time.

    I hope this helps.

  • Excel for the use of labVIEW

    Hello

    I know you can use labVIEW for reading/writing from/to excel. If you use labVIEW to read an excel (CSV) file, what can do you with it afterwards. I've seen a few videos and tutorials on read/write excel files, but I've not seen one that uses the excel file to do something in labVIEW.

    I think that something like this is very useful, and it seems that I can't find a few examples or tutorials on this. So, I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction to learn something like that, where you actually use the excel file in labVIEW, rather than just read.

    I think that something like this would be directly related to the type of data that comes out of reading a file, which would be as a string table 2d or integer. I was unable to find much on the use of 2d as well.


  • Convert llb VI LabVIEW 5 for use in LabVIEW 8.6

    Hello world!

    First of all, I would like to say how much I enjoyed working for OR and especially to support the community online in my free time. I have to say that this is a good place for NOR users in long term, the new users and any other LabVIEW - and you guys have fun! Excellent.

    I am now in college and I'm looking to use LabVIEW for robotics work. During my research, I found some manufacturers for material screw: however their "latest" version seems to be in LabVIEW 5.

    Someone would be kind enough to convert my screws at least LabVIEW 6 or up to LabVIEW 8.2.1 (latest version that can open the LabVIEW 5 screws) would be great. My LabVIEW 8.6 should be able to open the screw saved in LabVIEW 6 or higher. (Obviously not LabVIEW 2009!)

  • How can I write a Dll to perform a union in visual studio for use in LabVIEW?

    Hello

    I am new to writing dll. I am trying to write a Dll that will perform a union on a number of LabVIEW and then return the result in LabVIEW for my use. I've been struggling with this during a few days and I finally give in to get help.

    This screenshot is the only description I have to help me with what I'm trying to do. Basically, I'm trying to pass a value that will be different according to a measurement of partial discharge. In the screen below, the value used is '1061111989' this number is my reading. I need to pass that value of labVIEW in my dll to perform a union on that.

    In my Dll, I need to write the value of MeterReading.IntVal and to the MeterReading.FloatVal.

    I have Visual Studio complete 2012 2012 Edition LabVIEW full, I'm LabVIEW CLAD and I wrote 17 floors of test to the United States to date. However, I've never needed Visual Studio so far. Can someone help me with this?

    Thanks in advance,-Chris

  • I would like to only convert a c++ for use in labview dll - my camera has no DLLs in labview

    I have a piezoelectric Control Board (Piezomechanik gmbh) that I would use through LabView.  Currently, the company offers no support for Labview.  Windows detect the device (it came with a driver file), but the company only provides for C++ and Visual Basic dll files.  Can I convert these files to a format that can use Labview?  How can I get Labview to communicate with the control of Narcotics (and ultimately the piezoelectric device attached)?  Thank you!

    This will help you only when you have the header for the DLL file, otherwise you have to create manually using the "call library node' and the description of api DLL wrapper or write a header file for the DLL yourself based on the documentation of the api and the wizard.

    Kind regards

  • LabVIEW for control unlimited, a camera and a light meter (Minolta T - 10A)

    Hello world

    I'm totally new in the use of data acquisition software, but I found out, I use LabView for continuous measures (intervals of 15 min for 1 month or maybe more), the thing is that I need to get pictures simoultanously (Canon camera EOS) and illumination (in lux) device: Minolta T-10 a vision series T-10MA. My question is what software LabVIEW do I need to buy (or my institution actually) in order to get this. I look at the options of LabVIEW software and cannot understand what is needed. Subsequently, I guess that I need controllers for each of the devices (minolta and canon). Can you please tell me if this is possible and how to do it. I would really appreciate it.

    Steph.

    The following items are required: LabVIEW full, all drivers of devices (including DAQmx and pilots of the Vision) and the Acquisition of Vision software package.

    The Minolta luxometer has a connector for a PC and some communication software (which I did not inspect) which, I suppose, would allow you to take readings.  There is a comment about current if the USB cable is connected - I don't check if there is a power connector on the luxometer (since you will need to leave it plugged in for a month, the same problem with the camera).  As far as the camera is concerned, I don't know if it is controlled from a PC - my experience has been with (the size of 640 x 480 pixels) video cameras, which are probably controlled by LabVIEW.

    As for simultaneous readings, it is something that LabVIEW did pretty well.  I advise you to consult a professional if it's anything other than a school project, maybe even hire someone to work a few week of.

  • LabVIEW for linux (Ubuntu 64-bit)

    University of Helsinki uses a centralized managed linux installation on all linux workstations.  The distribution is based on Ubuntu 9.10, and it is considering moving to 10.04 LTS.  Almost all of the facilities are 64-bit, only a few old machines (> 5 years of age) are still using 32-bit installation.

    In the Physics Department, there are about 500 machines and about 30% of those who are linux workstations.  We strive to get LabVIEW for Linux installed on our desktop, then run under Ubuntu 64-bit.

    1 problem (not a problem): For some strange reason, the installation media does not CD/DVD use normal files (iso9660) system, but the media is formatted with the file system "Mac OS X HDF +".  It works under linux, of course, but has been a source of mild confusion.  It would be wise to change the normal file system to the next version.

    2nd problem: The installation under Ubuntu does not work.  Namely:

    First I mount the media with the "mount-t hfsplus/dev/sr0/media/cdrom0" and try running the installation script
    CD/media/cdrom0/Linux/labview-2009
    sudo knew
    . / INSTALL

    Installation is not going smoothly.  According to the error message, the script is not found the library libbz2:

    / Media/cdrom0/Linux/LabVIEW-2009/bin/rpmq: error while loading shared libraries: libbz2.so.1: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory

    However, the library is in standard place:
    $ ls/lib/libbz2 *.
    /lib/libbz2.so.1 /lib/libbz2.so.1.0 /lib/libbz2.so.1.0.4

    I know, "support of the distribution" list only include Mandriva, RedHat, and SUSE.  The version of LabVIEW is the latest version of the fall of 2009.  Does anyone have any ideas what to try next?

    see you soon,

  • assessment of suitability of LabVIEW for industrial machine control

    Greetings,

    I'm trying to determine if LabVIEW and related equipment are able to meet several organizational needs - which is a direct control of industrial machines as the main driver interface.  Specific IO is quite simple and not time critical, with the exception of a few security control.

    I'm trying to find information or use case examples where LabVIEW has been used in a Setup to autostart when the user/operator is ONLY presented with the Labview VI that acts as the user interface of the machine - without access to the underlying operating system - whether it is * NIX or Windows.

    Most of what I've found so far seems should be directed to LabVIEW providing a global monitoring environment, where the individual machines of control is managed using dedicated plc and HMI.  I would like to know if LabVIEW and related products can be used in place of traditional PLC and HMI hardware.  If not, what are some of the existing approaches for fusion environments?

    If anyone has experience or pointers to information, I would be grateful.

    See you soon,.

    Industrial control, we do all the time with LV the first thing to understand is that it is a language of programming like the others - what will happen is what you write. Nothing more, nothing less.

    The second thing is that there is no "related material". LV code can run on a number of platforms, but the actual IO modules you use could in principle be all devices which you can talk to (which means that they have dedicated drivers or memoranda of support that you can use, such as Modbus).

    The third thing is that it is possible to use a desktop for that OS (we do regularly), these systems are not designed for this. Beyond security considerations you mentioned, that must be implemented in dedicated hardware anyway, you should always accept that it is running on a desktop OS means there is a chance of things occur occasionally because preempted or your machine may get stuck in total, etc. For systems that we do, it is generally quite acceptable (and in fact is not often), but it's something to know. We usually leave the UI of the BONE in place, but it is also possible to replace the application from the shell with your own application, and then you will not see the classic interface at all (although users who know what they're doing can access if they really want to). There are different versions of the OS that may be preferable to something like that, but I have no experience with it.

    An obvious point to raise is that NEITHER has a hardware PLC-like dedicated that can run your code of LV and is actually designed to do this. The most obvious is the cRIO devices family. These work exactly like robots, with the exception that they are significantly more efficient and much more expensive.

    In regard to the mix of things, the classic way is to have the code on the PLC information and using something like Modbus, exactly as interactions with HMI systems jobs. LV is not a HMI program, however. It has some advantages, like being able to encode and do custom things and a few drawbacks, like not being able to do the UIs of basic or logging as easily. There is an add-on for LV that is supposed to add a bit of this, called the DSC module, but I don't really have experience with it. The decision on whether to use a program to HMI or code your own (in BT or any other language) should depend on the system and the implementer.

    Again, LV is like any other programming language. You can control applications in C, but you must know C and build the relevant parts. Goes same for LV - you will need to know and to be able to write specific code you want. NOR has some reference designs, they come out on the subject, but I never watched their close collaboration.
