Using the 'current default values do' as a control on the front panel

Hello

I'm building a VI that uses a lot of digital controls. I want to use "do current default values" as a control Boolean on the front panel for the user.

Is it possible to implement when the program is running? What would be an alternative, if this was not possible?

Thank you

  • is it possible to use the front panel without installing Labview?

    Hallo,

    I have two quick questions:

    1. is it possible to use the façade of a labview software without the need to install Labview itself? I mean something similar to the "power point viewer" that can display Power Point files without installing microsoft office.

    2. in a graphic intensity, how can you change the color?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    What you need to do is

    (1) turn off the interpolation color option

    2) click Add marker, which will add the marker where you want to add

    (3) then right click on the digital value for the marker, you created and you will see the tag, saying: "Color of the mark". Select the color you want.

    In one example, I created values 77 and 23 markers and their red and gray Cap. Hope this helps

    Can I programmatically change the default property to create for all elements of the front panel?

    I need to make the logout button, when click on, takes care of all the default values of my fron Panel.

    There is no way to programmatically call the functionality of an editor 'Use default' or 'Load Default'. To do it yourself, you will need to write your default values for each control explicitly in the diagram, when the user press the logout button.

  • By default, Labview 8.6 places conventional controls on the front panel; Is it possible to change the default settings to modern or Express possible?...


    The default value is of modern controls and I always change to classic.

    I am classic and the classic controls are much easier to adapt to what I want.

    options GOTO and look along all tabs to find the place where the new vi is adjustable and modern controls by default

    But keep in mind only new i's, old vi must be changed in the properties of this vi.

  • PowerConnect 6248 stacking using the front SFP Ports

    I am trying to stack two Dell Powerconnect 6248 switches. Currently they are chained together, but I modules fibre for the front sfp ports. Theoretically, I should be able to stack them. But when I try:

    stack 1/g45 #stack - port console (config-battery)

    Could not set the front panel stacking mode.

    Any ideas? Thank you!

    The PCT6200 requires a stack of modules installed in Bay 1 (XG1 XG2) at the rear of the switch. The stacking module uses CX4/Infiniband type stacking spacers.

  • HP EliteDesk 800 G2 Small Form: The front panel audio connector - this only made type to use for headphones and microphone

    Hello

    I am trying to determine what type of audio 3.5 mm plug to put into the connector on the front panel for the use of a headset to make video communications.

    could be - sleeve, ring and end cap (mono audio and microphone)

    or

    could be - sleeve, ring, ring and tip (stereo sound and microphone)

    Having read through the manuals and nothing is said on the type to use.

    Hello world

    Just plugged the connector 4 poles on my headset combination for my mobile phone (cellular) and the box of pop - up asked me to select headset or microphone - no selection for both.

    Looks like the right sleeve is for headphones only, and the left one is for headphones or micro - selectable by the user and not the two on a single sheet.

    Everything explained by the practice - but not the paperwork in the manuals.

    #5 for microphone or headset - menu popup is displayed after you insert a 3.5 mm plug to select that one but not both at the same time.  (So I can't use my headset to phone)

    Thank you

  • Is it possible to use a box Structure to hide digital indicators on the front panel, when they are not in use?

    I'm rather new to LabVIEW, only used for about 1.5 weeks from this post, it means that I may be missing something pretty obvious due to ignorance, but is it possible to make my front to change as my changes of breakage due to the selection of the user to a certain case via the front panel?

    The goal of the program is to make a simple layout for a user who uses the digital multimeter that the proposed code is designed for and I don't want tons of digital controllers and such clutter the screen that do not work with the function of the user uses to measure with.

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes.

    Two ways: 1. use a tab control.

    2. use of property nodes (Visible property).

    The tab control is a bit easier on the block diagram, but if some controls should appear in many cases it is difficult to do.  Property nodes take more space on the diagram but allows you the versatility to do almost everything you want.

    Read the help files and look at a few examples.

    Thank you Adam, it's originally in a while loop, I placed it in a loop for example, wired County in the for loop and presto, this son of a digital indicator. It works very well. Thanks for the help folks.

  • Conflict of flow of data on the front panel

    Hello

    My vi is almost done, but I still have a problem with the front panel. I think that there is data traffic conflicts in my vi.

    When you run my vi, you will see the pop-up window asking you to set a path of file, control devices, selection of data to record and trace. Then, you might want to change the units, turn off all the buttons light and ok to select what data you want to save. Then click on RUN.

    The problem is; supposedly all the buttons are on by default, if you disable certain economies or tracing buttons to choose not to save, and then click RUN, after that all the buttons are again even if you have turned off before the race. They must stay off, if you have selected to save. The condition of main data flow is always the same be before running (only light buttons and ok).

    Do you have ideas of how to solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance

    You have what is called a race condition that usually slips in programs that use local variables.  If you look at your first while loop to read in the current value of the 'steam data hand' control and store in a shift register.  After the structure of the event outputs you write this offset value to register in the control and in the process of replacement of the changes that the user can do.

    A quick and dirty solution would be to manage the main event to change the value for 'Stream' in the structure of your event to update the shift register whenever the user changes the values in the control.

    A better solution would be to get rid of the shift registers and move local variables in the structure of the event.  As long as the option "lock the front until the end of the event" (I'm not sure of the exact wording and I work in the LabVIEW Base at the moment so I can't check) is selected it will ensure that you do not work in a race condition (you know the value cannot change inbetween you value reading, and you update the control).

    Even better would be to avoid local variables wherever possible.  This is general advice only and not not something that I can do much more tangible without knowing the details of how you want your application to behave.

    Hope this helps,

  • Best way to reset all controls on the front panel except one?

    Hello world

    I have an interesting problem, whereby I need to run successive tests using a test station which has several indicators on the front panel. At the end of each test, I need to reset all to default values, with the exception of a control (Test ID) who needs to keep his information - its value is used in an initialization status for test to ask for information from a database, so it can not be reset with the rest controls.

    I post all orders at a time using a reference ThisVI and VI Default Vals.Reinit All method, but this will obviously reset my control values (Test ID) as well. Any suggestions on how to keep properly or may store this information control while resetting all others. I can reset individually others but there is a little and more can be added as this system is developed.

    I don't really know what is the right way to proceed, and Labview has maybe one trick in his bag that I know to work around this problem.

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions,

    Alex

    Flank the node invoke with two nodes in the value property of the control to maintain the value. To the left we read as well as a right and the wires together. Connect three nodes with a thread of error to establish the order of execution.

    First reading place value on the wire, which is then written after the values have been reset to the default value.

  • How can I insert a jpeg image in the front panel

    Hello

    I'm new to labview and have written a vi using a data logger NI USB-6008 reading from a sensor that performs a calculation and then displays a value. I am trying to put the logo of our company on the front screen when running, but can't work out how to do it. The logo is a jpeg file.

    I use the trial version 2010.

    Drag / move your jpeg file from windows Explorer to the front panel of your VI should work.

  • The front panel scroll, based on the size of the monitor

    Hi guys,.

    I built an exe file of a VI on a labview having machine so that it can be run in another has no labview. The machine where I programmed the VI has a large 22 "monitor and so I put on my face as a result. The machine that will use the exe file has a screen size of 15 ", and some elements of the front panel are not accessible if I make an enlargement. However if I don't maximize the screen I can move the window to the edge and access controls. But it's so heavy. Is there a way I can add scroll bars to the VI while I can scroll the front panel?

    Thank you

    Of course.

    Scrolls bars are something that you can turn on (and are normally enabled by default) in the dialog box properties VI of VI.

    In addition, it is usually best to design your sign before and that it is effective for the smallest screen size you expect that it runs.

  • Disabling the controls on the front panel

    Hello

    Currently, I am working on trying to disable/gray out between 10-20 controls on the front panel when you press a start button and then allowing them the end of the test. Currently I use the property nodes, all of which are connected to a constant of the State in which I want that works perfectly. My question is that there is another way other than having a bunch of knots of padding property to the top of my structure of the event. Ive read where people had Subvi, which has used references to make this same feature, but is there a way of doing things in the block diagram of my current VI? Thank you!

    Need references of your controls on the front panel, so this can be fast, because you can select more than one, and with a right click you create references.

    I have attached a version LV2010.

    Edit: another review:

    Must be created only once these references. Usually, it's comfortable group all the references in a cluster, use this thread through your entire code. This way you can just ungroup references to the actual location, you have to play with, put them in a table and use the above FOR loop to change their properties...

  • 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.
