LabView shutdown problems?

[nicholas03]

I created a program using the measurement computing USB-TC and LabView.  If I try running the program LawView ends saying its not responding. All my unsaved work is lost and i don't know how to run it without it ending. Any help?

[Matthew_Kelton]

I suggest you run the code with execution higlighted, or start dropping dialog boxes to figure out where the program is crashing.  Also, what version of LabVIEW are you ising and what OS are you running it on?

You need to try to track down where the crash is occurring, because then you might have chance of fixing it, or someone else here may be able to help determine what needs to be fixed.

Hi Nicholas,

In addition to the questions asked above, I have a few other questions for you:

1. Have you tried running the program on another computer?
2. Which error code are you receiving? A screen shot of the error code would be helpful.
3. Does your program crash every time you try to run the program?

As mentioned previously, running the program in highlight execution could be useful. Where does your program hang?

Along with the execution highlight try putting in some error handlers, they can sometimes guide you to your problem(s) before the shut down occurs.

The window says, "LabVIEW 8.2.1 Development System has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience."
then it says to "send error report" or "don't send"

Does the device work with the Measurement Computing configuration utility? Is the problem with one of the examples that comes with their driver? Does this happen with the latest version? If yes to any of these, you should contact MCC. This sort of crash often happens when a DLL is not sent the correct types of parameters so it sounds more like a MCC problem that a LabVIEW one since you are using MCC code.

Hi Nicholas,

Does this behavior always occur when you run your program? What type of commands are you using?

Could you try running an example program with your hardware? If this works okay, try modifying it to work for your application.

My program is based off a TIn Scan vi. I have my data from the vi. going to a 2 element "Code Interface Node" connected to a clock. From there the path goes to a "Sort 1D Array" to a "Get XY value vi." to "Waveforms to XY Pairs" to a "XY Graph."  I thought this might work but it just shutsdown. do i have something i dont need? do i need anything else?

did you turn on the execution highlighting (lightbulb in the block diagram) as suggested?  Me suspects you ticked off the CIN somehow... but watching it execute will tell you for sure

i clicked the lightbulb and it seemed to work better allthough it still shutdown. could it be my computer?
