  1. QUOTE (jdunham @ Oct 9 2008, 01:13 AM) This approach will not work if you are using TCP connections though. If you use this on a TCP connection you will establish two independent connections to the device. The device should be smart enough that it returns the response on the same connection that it received the data on. It would be nice if VISA allowed true asynchronous communication. In addition, it would be nice if VISA allowed independent control of the various settings on the resource. In particular, it should allow different timeout values for the transmit and receive.
  2. Can anyone explain how I can set the default value for a X-control. I created a X-control for connection configuration data (serial, parallel port, TCP/IP and USB) and for the life of me I can't seem to define default values for the data. The serial port configuration is the most complex and is comprised of multiple typedefed enums (for BAUD rate, parity, stop bits, etc.) and no matter what I have tried I can't get the default values I want. They always revert to the first value in the enum list. I have tried setting the default value for the typedefs, the individual controls, the controls on the facade and the internal data structures (like I said, I have tried everything). Nothing seems to work. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
  3. QUOTE (Lars915 @ Apr 3 2008, 02:56 PM) I totally agree with this advice. It is much easier and faster to work with a 2D array than to work directly with Excel. On some of the larger projects I have worked on we have run into performance issues and race conditions (inside Excel, not LabVIEW). We found it was better to work with a simple CSV file. In some cases where native Excel was required we only wrote the Excel file at the completion of the application using the temporary CSV file as the input.

  5. Personally, I have never been a huge fan of XML to begin with, at least for anything a human will be dealing with. XML is not very readable for humans without some other tool. I prefer generic ini file formats for configuration data. With that said, I do need to work with XML since the product I am working with returns data via XML. I found the fastest method for working with this was to write my own simple parser. I mainly need to extract values out of the XML data and a simplified text parser was easier and faster than the XML tools available with LabVIEW.
