Hi,
I have the student version of LabView 8.5.1 and am experiencing a lot of instability when using any Mathscript feature of Labview (either the Mathscript block or the Mathscript window), but only when dealing with larger scripts. The Matlab script is approximately 250 lines long and 16Kb in size, and within that, are seven large arrays (six 14x8 built at the start and one 1000x9 that is built within a for loop, so increases with each iteration up to 1000 rows). I'm finding that whenever I edit the script in the Mathscript node or within the Mathscript window Labview will freeze and hang for at least 10 minutes, sometimes totally crashing Labview. As I wrote the script in Matlab, I am having to debug it in Labview and find out which commands in Matlab don't work in Mathscript/Labview, so it is obviously quite infuriating to have the programme regularly hang for 10mins at a time.
The computer I'm using is a 5-year old Packard Bell desktop with 768Mb Ram (less 32Mb for integrated graphics), running XP Pro. The processor is an Intel Celeron 2.6GHz. I appreciate this isn't the best specced machine ever, but at the time it was all I could afford!
Is this frequent hanging a glitch with Labview and Mathscript's handling of large .m files, or is it purely down to my ancient computer?
Many thanks for the help.
