LabVIEW crashes when using the Get Scale Information.vi

[andili]

Hi,

I'm using LV 6.02 and MAX 2.2.0.3010 on WinNT 4.0 SP6 and a AT-MIO 16E-10 DAQ-Board.

In MAX I've created some virtual chanels and also some scales. Data-Aquisition works fine so far. But now in my application I need to know the scale coefficients to calculate the voltage of my waveform signal. For this I tried to use the Get Scale Information.vi from DAQ-Chanel Utilities palette. But everytime I run this vi with a valid scale name, LV chrashes down.

Has anyone an idea, what to do?

Thanks in advandce!

I am not sure what could be causing the problem. Have you seen the problem on another computer? You may have a bug in your code, there could be a bug in LabVIEW, or most likely you have a corrupted VI. Try copying the block diagram to another VI and see if that helps. You should also wire up the error cluster and possilbly post the error message to the forum. A striped down version of the VI would help too.

Hi Jeremy,

I couldn't test my vi on another computer, I only have one with LV installed.

I also couldn't post the error message, because there is no one. LV is immediatly chrashing after executing this single vi. There is another Windows Application that starts to log some memory and task stuff ('Dr. Watson').

I will attache this vi.

In MAX I have defined three different linear scalings.

Hope, you can help me.

Thanks so far, Andreas

Have you updated your version of NI-DAQ? When you install NI-DAQ, it installs the DAQ VI's in your LabVIEW version. If you update your NI-DAQ version without uninstalling the old version, the DAQ VI's will remain, and some won't work properly with the new version of NI-DAQ.

I did not get the code to crash on my machine. DAQ and MAX is not really my thing. I have LabVIEW 7 with the newest DAQ driver. You may want to contact NI support for more help. The address is www.ni.com/ask .
