Error loading vrml file

[Yves Bau]

Using Solid Works 2007 and creating a vrml 97 I get a error message from the Load WRL File.

Can anyone help?

[KostasB]

On the screenshot I can't see the path for the vrlm file. Have you specified it correctly on the front panel ? Otherwise, LabVIEW will give you an error as it can not locate

the file.

it had a path, just didnt show because it was a browser...

now instead of a browser i placed a constant with the correct path.

but that wasnt the error, even if i put the wrong path, it generates the same mistake.

You can see in these two JPGs, in the first one is the correct path, the second one even the extension is messed up, and the error is the same.

Something about NI-488 device not found.

The NI 488 error is very common and could be down to various reasons (e.g. when a path is incorrect) . Is it possible for you to post the vi along with the appropriate files so that i can replicate the problem?

thanks for the reply.

[KostasB]

It works fine on my computer. Try to turn on the execution highlight button from the toolbar to find out during which step the error was generated.

The error occurs inside the Load VRML FILE block, to be more exact in the NI_3D Picture Control.lvlib:NI_Old 3D Toolkit.lvlib:VRML Parser.vi

[Yves Bau]

Actually it happens even further within the load vrms file, it happens in the NI_3D Picture Control.lvlib:NI_Old 3D Toolkit.lvlib:Proto.vi

Still havent solve the problem.. anyone has another idea or solution?

[KostasB]

Hi,

can you try to run the attached vi? If it does not run, there might be a problem with the LabVIEW installation. Is the image on the screenshot what I should expect to see?

Thanks,
