Yeah - LabVIEW coders on Jolt Cola...

Welcome back alfa - long time no hear! Remember: in quantum physics, 2 + 2 = 5 for extremely large values of 2... Are you kidding me? That movie is a perfect example of the theory that you can make "facts" say anything you want them to.

Looks just like the Rouge River Assembly Plant

You gotta love that show!

Hi All, One of my clients has a cDAQ chassis with 4 x 9215's and 2 x 9237's - he's using a relatively generic DAQ utility that is acquiring a handful of differential channels on the 9215's without a problem, but as soon as he adds a strain channel on one of the 9237's, the systems grinds to a halt, as it can't read the data from the 9237 fast enough. He's tried sampling rates from 1Hz to 100Hz, and although the time it takes to fill the buffer varies, it still can't read it fast enough for some reason. I know I'm not being particulariy coherent here, but I'm just fishing for any lightbulbs going off anywhere cheers, crelf

That's just pure poetry!

Being also in Michigan, I agree that it would be nice to get down south for the winter, but I don't really mind having it in August - It's all part of the experience: drinking beer under the mist machines on 6th street in 110 degree heat

Chin up mate - you're doing a great job!

I call it the LAVA Grand Unified Theory...

Ahhh - now I remember the conversation fondly

:thumbup: Good luck!

As Chris said, we already have a G editor: it's called LabVIEW. You're absolutely right that I'm right Would such a system break the LabVIEW license agreement?

It's very odd that the Windows SDK function returned the error - I'm not sure if that's an OS problem, or a LabVIEW probelm accessing an OS function. I think the only way you'll get a definative answer is from NI.

That's punny!

LabVIEW can be your editor. You just need an import/export utility that (using scripting) builds/unbuilds (is that a word?) between XML and VIs - it wouldn't be difficult, just time consuming.

I am hoping it is a cultral difference, and that Joris' English interpretation skills are a little different to mine. I think it's a case of text-based messaging not including the emotion in which the text was intended?

That's a cool dream I've had for a while - an open VI definition - we can use scripting to build VIs on the fly. We'd need to really strictly define the structure, and would need NI's help to make sure that we don't miss anything. It sounds like a lot of work though...

Sounds a little eXcessive to me...

Ah - I see. So marketing drivel confirmed It's almost aligning with the old MacOS Vs Windows paradigm: MacOS only needed to work on the hardware platform that Apple created, where as Windows had a slightly more difficult task. I'm not surprised that Apple is pushing even further into the consumer electronics market - that's where the quick bucks are!

I'd like to see the context of that quote. As a throw-away line on it's own, it's only purpose is either marketing drivel or... well... I can't think of anything else.

Just like Generation-X

Actually, I think it's related to the fact that debugging is turned off...

On reflection, I think you're absolutely right.
