I don't understand what you mean. Do you just need to plot the temperature? In my PID graphs, I normally plot the Control signal (maybe voltage 0-10v) and also the temperature. I use different Y scales for the two plots.

I'm just wondering, since the LV PID Toolkit VIs are not block diagram protected, so if I just take the content and copy it on a new VI's block diagram, and send you that VI, do I then breach any copyright laws?

It works fine for me in LV2010, I just build my exe file in LV2010-32 bit, then I open the same project in 2010-64 and builds it again without any problems. Maybe I've just been lucky :-)

I've solved exactly this problem with the "TARGET_BITNESS of a conditional disable structure". I just open the same VI with LV 32 and 64 bit version to configure the dll path. I always create 2 folders "32" and "64", where I have the dll's with the same name. //Mike

FYI Sometimes I solve these kind of problems by using reference based objects. If I use a Tree control I store the object reference as the tag, and for a Multi Column list box, I can store the reference in a hidden column the user can't see.

If you just want the speach recognition function, look at LVSpeak https://decibel.ni.com/content/groups/labview-apis/blog/2009/11/19/labview-speak--programming-lv-through-voice-commands

...and also the upcoming version supports many more classes in the Project Windows and the UML Class diagram for the community user.

The server was down for a while, but should be up and running again. Any probloems send us the Email activaton details on goop@symbio.com Correction: That error is when you have activated the same key on to many different users/computers. Send an email to goop@symbio.com and they will crank up the numbers of allowed activations, sorry for the problem this might have casued you. //Mike

Thanks

Yes, it's linked to Ctrl+Space, and even if I change it to something else, it doesn't work on the computer that is giving me the problem. BTW, I didn't dare to bring your Seeded business card into Australia, after a 25 hours flight I didn't want to get cought in custom ;-)

My Quick Drop Ctrl-Space, also stops working on some computers.

I've installed both 32 and 64 bit, but my normal license key doesn't work. Does anybody else have that problem? It might be some problem since I've had 2012 beta installed and they have expired. I got it working after reinstalling everything :-) //Mike

A quick reply (since I'm jumping on an airplane and start my trip to Austin now). I use the instrument base class for my Factory Create function. Let's talk more about designs at NI week.

This is normally how my HAL layers look like. Cheers, Mike

Symbio is giving away 3 UML Architect GOOP Development Licences. FYI the new GDS release is supporting the Actor Framework, what better way is there to modelling your Actors in UML. //Mike

Thanks for that VI, I love it. I even made my own Wait (us), VI with that and it works great.

Have you tried OpenG's VIs?

That's what LAVA is for. When I thought about removing the compiled code from the VIs of all our Instrument driver(about 200 lvclasses), which the whole company is using, I was very worried, does this new feature work 100%?!? So to become more confident I contacted AQ, who referred me to a compiled code specialist at NI that gave me the confident of going ahead. I would like to report this to NI, but first I need to know how to reproduce it, because it happens very seldom, but when it happens everything comes crashing down. I first noticed it, when I needed to build a new version of my executable, the executable didn't work. And when I dug in to the driver layers I found one class where all commands to the instrument was reset to the first element.

And you use of course TypeDefs??? Maybe it's the combination of Removed Compiled Code and TypeDefs beloning to a library/class?!?! I've never experienced this before I removed the Compiled code, and I have been coding LV daily, between 8-16 hours day for the last 17 years Next time it happens close the VI and remove the Object Cash and see if that fixes the problem.

I see this

Hi guys I'm still stuck with 2010 at work, and we have tried to remove the compiled code from all our shared code, and that seemed to work to start with. Then all of a sudden (I don't really know what we did to cause it to happen), all enum constants on block diagrams that was linked to a particular type def control, changed to the first value of the type def (index 0). That was really odd, but after a bit of investigation we blamed the "Remove-Compiled Code" option and put it back, and we've never saw the problem again, until today. I still had one shared lv-class, with removed compiled code, that got screwed up today. I checked with my tortoise and the VI had no changes made to it, but still my enums were changed to the first value. So I closed the VI, and removed the Object Cash (LabVIEW Data\VIObjCache\10.0) folder, and reopened it, and now it was all good again. Am I the only one that have seen this problem? //Mike

Thanks, I'll give it a go.

Sounds very intersting. I'm getting a new fresh version control server at work to play with and I'm very tempting to try Mercurial on that one. Anybody having luck with moving over the repositoires and version history from SVN to Mercurial? How good is Mercurial of handling LV files? //Mike

Please delete them, and use the parent's GetAttribute method. If you are looking for the latest GDS beta version, I'll upload it here soon: This version has glyphs supports in the VI-icons (just like the Native LV icon editor has, but a little better in my opinion ;-) It also has support for all normal Native by value classes, so you can do all class functions with these classes. And now we support Actor Framework classes and functions, like creating Actors from different templates and the Message maker functions. Both AF version 3.0.7 and 4.0.0 is supported. //Mike

Congratulations to the beautiful boys, twice the work but twice the fun.
