:headbang: PLEASE HELP!!! :headbang: I've spent the last 2 weeks working on this program and it works perfectly on my main laptop (LV 6.1, windows 2000) buy when i loaded it onto the laptop (LV 6.1, windows 98) we will be using for testing, i keep getting error 10401 - "NI-DAQ LV: the specified device is not a national instruments product, the driver does not support the device ( for example the driver was released before the device was supported0, or the device has not been configured using the Measurment & Automation explorer" this is what I have done: - restarted the computer - reinstalled the correct driver (7.1, according to the NI website) - run test panels in MAX - checked to make sure the device numbers match ( in the vi and MAX) these are all of the suggestions which i could gather from the NI website, and I couldn't find anything in the forum about this problem, so I'm hoping someone can help me. I would like to get rid of the error or just disable the error notification - because the program works fine - but we cannot close the error message from a distance. thank you in adavnce to anyone who can help! jess Download File:post-2309-1118065467.zip

i have the clock working now too... if anyone can offer help with the post about booleans and mouse buttons it would be much appreciated. :beer: :thumbup:

yeah, that's the problem - i am not sure if it is possible to do that within my setup - i tried looking at lots of different case structure examples and wasn't sure if it was possible within my program- the program works the way that i want/need it to, but my advisor wanted me to try to set it up so that we could start and stop it by clicking different mouse buttons - we need to operate the program from a distance, and we're using a very small laptop so if we can start/stop our program without being able to see the screen, it is ideal... i am not sure what this is or how to do it... any suggestions? i have only been using labview since January 2005, and never had to use it extensively until now. thanks for the help! i appreciate it. :thumbup:

is it possble to do this with mouse buttons in LV 6.1? and if so, how? sorry, i'm new to the program and need any help you can offer. thanks... :thumbup:

i haven't found anything on this topic, but i thought someone might know - is it possible for me to assign mouse buttons to booleans? (in LabVIEW 6.1) i have a start and stop button in my program and want to make the left button click activate the start button and the right activate the stop - possibly assign the mouse wheel to a third button i'd love it if anyone could help me out with this. thanks... jess ps: orange button = start "stop" = stop Download File:post-2309-1117562866.vi

:worship: thank you so much for your help! it finally stopped crashing and the data can be recorded - the only thing i'm still having problems with is the clock - i need to be able to measure the amount of time that we are recording data to tell if the run was good or not - i have tried putting it in several different places inside and outside of the case structure and still cannot get anything but the milisecond timer to work - i would really like it to light up an led if (5 / (time/1000)) is between 2 set values. any suggestions? as usual, the file is attached... jess Download File:post-2309-1117544402.vi

as a follow-up.. i've tried adding the event structure in different ways (i used a modification of the neweventstructure.vi) , but everytime i run the vi, labview gets stuck and i can't stop the simulation without exiting the program.... it has solved the problem of not recording data until the "start" button hs been clicked, but i can no longer mark the data or stop the simulation i'm guessing anyone with advice on event structures in 6.1 would be a huge help too.... or a good way to incorporate it into the file on the previous post again, thank you to anyone who can help... jess Download File:post-2309-1117221573.vi

:headbang: i'm failry new to labview, and i've been working on a program for the last week to acquire data from a DAQ card - it will allow the user to imput a string and choose a file from a listbox. the user can mark the data. my final task is to create a button on the vi that will start and stop the data acquisition while measuring the amount of time that it has been recording. our testing is based upon the user doing something at a set speed - so we can determine how fast they completed the task by timing the data recording. i have not been able to find any sample codes or help with creation of this button. i have fooled with the idea of using an event structure, but am not sure how to set it up with my program - any help would be great! thanks so much! jess ps... the vi file is attached Download File:post-2309-1117132726.vi
