  1. QUOTE(Dave Graybeal @ Feb 22 2007, 12:17 PM) Good Job! :thumbup:
  2. Well, it appears to be a LabVIEW bug. I would report this to NI. When the VI is idle and you popup on it to use a generic probe the probe reference bubble is greyed out. I DID however manage to use a custom probe. That works fine. Typedefs or NOT, this is not normal. Typedefs can be probed. The image of the grey bubble was after I disconnected typdefs so this wasn't an issue in my test. Here is a LV 8.2 version which has this problem too. Download File:post-2-1172175648.vi
  3. QUOTE(eaolson @ Feb 22 2007, 10:47 AM) That's not exactly what I meant. The OP does not specify what the sampling rate is for the 200hrs btw. In any case, you would continue to save data at the slow rate to file A, however you would also have a file B that would always contain the last 5 mins of data at the high speed rate. Basically creating a buffer on disk. Appending to a file is faster than you might think (OS disk caching is pretty smart and writes in chunks anyway). Also, there is the chance that the application will hang or even crash when you try to save a large file of data from memory at the end. You might even run out of physical memory and the OS will resort to swapping which has it's own slowdown problems.
  4. Typically, when doing streaming to disk, you want to append the data to a file as you collect inside the loop, not after the collection. This means you don't have to build up a large array. That's my opinion. Write everything to disk all the time and after the test is over extract the last 5 mins you want. Also, why are you assuming 16 nodes of data collection? Normally you can sweep all 16 channels with one daq node. Have you considered TDMS files? They are optimized for high speed disk streaming (NI claims). Anyway, just my 2 cents worth. In the end you're the one who has to get it working...
  5. Nice work. QUOTE(Aitor Solar @ Feb 22 2007, 06:18 AM) Init Ability always runs when XControl instance is loaded. The problem is you put your code in the 0.0.0.0 frame. You need to put it in the default frame. Delete the 0.0.0.0 frame altogether.
  6. I find this hard to believe. Please post an example. Also, if you're probing a reentrant VI, make sure you are probing the correct instance.
  7. QUOTE(TiT @ Feb 21 2007, 11:37 PM) I'm not exactly sure how the OpenG packages create the palette items. I haven't gotten involved in that aspect of it. Perhaps Jim can shed some light.However, I know for a fact that VIPM does not do anything special with OpenG packages compared to any other package you may install (besides the internet connection of course). So my point is if you add the menu creation in your package, VIPM will gladly set it up for you . Perhaps that is the real problem that should be addressed.
  8. QUOTE(TiT @ Feb 21 2007, 01:39 PM) Well, VIPM does some of that to an extent. Once you install all of your packages to the new computer via VIPM, you will also get the palletes setup for that package. This is part of the standard package installation process. Of course it doesn't handle customized palette sets or INI settings... yet.

  11. Ok, I've modified it to perform what you requested. Download File:post-2-1171876399.vi LV: 8.01 Now what?
  12. I'm not sure why you are having problems but here is how i would do it. I'm using a static menu. LV:8.01 Download File:post-2-1171778045.vi

  14. Ya, I believe this is an oversight on NI's part, however there is a workaround, albeit cludgy. You need to trap the menu Activation event. From there you can detect the state of the checkmark with the "Get Menu Item Info" menu primitive. Then you need to pass that state boolean via a shift register to the menu Selection event case. You don't even have to worry about initializing the shift register since the menu Activation event always fires before the menu Selection event case
  15. Sure, ";" is a valid char., however the help states: QUOTE The Windows file dialogs accept ";" as a seperator. Also, The LV File dialog function accepts ";" as a delimiter for pattern input. This is used to filter the directory listing. From the help in the file dialog:QUOTE To match multiple patterns, use a semicolon ( ; ) to separate the patterns. White space, such as blanks, tabs, and carriage returns, are taken literally. Avoid using white spaces unless they are part of the extension pattern. For example, if you use *.html;*.doc, the dialog box displays all files that end with .html and .doc. If you use *.html; *.doc, the dialog box displays only files that end with .html. So all i'm stating is that there is a descrepancy somewhere.
  16. Don't know if this is a bug or a feature request: Can the list folder function accept multiple wildcard patterns?
  17. I did a rebuild of the forum stats. Everyone's numbers have dropped to their real values. Normally when a post is deleted your post count does not change until you rebuild.
  18. It turns out this is a known issue without a fix right now: http://forums.invisionpower.com/index.php?...p;bug_cat_id=13
