I have some software problems of running matlab script node in the LabVIEW program.

Hi there,

I wrote a simple matlab code, like x= 1, y = x*2. Then I tried to put them into matlab script node in LabVIEW.

However, when I ran the program, I couldn't run and Labiew show some error. 

Then I tried the method talked before on this forum. Please see the following link.

I followed the instruction and open the "command prompt," type some commands then I could run the program, and simultaneously, the LabVIEW program open "Matlab command line window" and run my labview code. However, if I didn't use the command prompt, the  "matlab command window" will not be opened by running the labview program. It would just show some error. And even if I turn on the matlab program in advance, I still couldn't run the labview program.

Is there any effecient way to deal with this problem without using "command prompt?" Because I try another PC with both matlab and labview installed on it, I "can" run my simple matlab script node on it, and it will open the matlab command line window automatically by running my code. Therefore, I thought there might be some software linking problems in the previous PC I used . Do you have any ideas?

Thanks in advacne.

This board is for Mathscript, but you seem to have a matlab problem. You should probably post in the LabVIEW forum instead.

What is your LabVIEW version? What is you matlab version?

I'm sorry I go in the wrong board.

My LabVIEW version is 8.5 and matlab is R2008a.

I would post this question on Labview Discussion Forum.

Thank you!
