Module Failure - Different Computer

MeCoOp — Thu, 25 May 2006 20:52:57 GMT

I currently have a set up with the FP-1601, (2) FP-TC-120, and a FP-AIO-610 modules. We are upgrading to a new computer so I copied the vi and the iak files from the current computer. For some reason when the vi is run on the new computer I get readings from everything except the FP-AIO-610. The program runs just as it should on the older computer. The operating systems are the same and I'm using LV version 6.1. Any suggestions?....Thanks.

The probable cause is that the version of FieldPoint you are using was released prior to the FP-AIO-610 having been released. The simple solution is to go into MAX, select the IP address of your FP-1601 and choose Find Devices. By querying the devices, the FieldPoint software will identify the FP-AIO-610 as a module that it does not have a datasheet installed for, and will download the datasheet from the module.
