Can two different applications access one field point module on different channels at the same time?

Running as vi's....same results

What versions of FieldPoint and LabVIEW are you using?

Hi Jim,

Can you access two different channels from the FieldPoint Bank with 2 instances of a shipping example?  Try the Analog Input.vi located in the NI Example Finder under Hardware Input and Output >> FieldPoint >> Getting Started.

You will have to save one instance with a different name before you can open the second instance.

Let me know your results.

Yes, both of the shipping examples ran at the same time Jim

Hi Jim,

What exactly are you applications doing?  We have just proved that it is possible to access the same FieldPoint module from 2 applications with the shipping examples.  Now we just need to figure out what is going on in your code that is causing the errors.

Did you try zipping your applications before attaching them?

the second vi

Hi Jim,

I am missing the "mV Signal ReadREPLACEMENT.vi."

Also, looking through this code, I notice that the only FieldPoint (FP) VI you have is the FieldPointTriggerChannel0.vi in HR_Test.vi.  There are no FP VIs in FLAMEPROPAGATION...  Try commenting out the FieldPointTriggerChannel0.vi in HR_Test.vi and see if you still get that same error.

I am beginning to doubt that this is a FP error since at most there is only one VI accessing the FP system.

Also, looking at the FieldPointTriggerChannel0.vi, I notice that the controls are not connected to the Create Tag.vi.  Instead there are constants wired.  Is this intentional?
