Prompting for collecting each set of data

[nibu]

Sir/Madam,

I need to collect 300 readings and the program/control panel is prompting to select the location where I have to save my data(i.e in excel or word file) each time for 300 times. I am using Labview 7.0 and Field point. Please reply me as soon as possible.

The File I/O VIs will prompt you for a file path when the File Path input is unwired or empty. Specify the file to be written as a constant or control and you will not be prompted each of the 300 times.

Regards,
Aaron

Sir,
I already had "Path for data file" as control. But still I am experiencing this problem. The program I am using is a 3 years old program. We never encountered this kind of problem before.

Cant you provide a screen shot of the VI that you are using to write to file? The file path is probably not going through unless you are using the dialog open.
Will need to have a look at the block diagram.

Also there is another problem with this program I recently encountered. It is running for few minute ie 1-3 min and freezing on its one. i.e, The time /date is not varying and data changes I cannot see. But still I can see the icons rencontinuously and Run in black color.
I would greatly appriciate it if you can give me some suggestions on this and help me run this program working.
Thanks a bunch,

Hello Nibu,

I have a few suggestions. You need to bring the File Path into the Case structure. Also, make sure that the Read From Spreadsheet File.vi is after Write to Spreadsheet File.vi. The way you have it set up, they could happen in reverse order. Please let me know if you have any questions. Have a great day!

Sincerely,
Marni S.

Sir,
I have six modules two AI-110 and four FP-TC. In this all seems like working in the .iak file and in the labview .vi file the thermocouples are not giving data. i.e I am unable to the get data.
Thanks,
NIBU

Hello Nibu. There is an example that ships with LabVIEW called Temperature Measurement.vi. Open the Example Finder (Help Menu>>Find Examples). Then Browse Hardware Input and Output>>FieldPoint>>Advanced. Try to read your thermocouples with this example. Please let me know if you have any questions. Have a great day!
