Solved!
Go to solution

Hello,

Can anybody help me?

 

I always get an error when I call a VI (*.gvi) via "open VI Reference".
Is that posible in LabVIEW NXG?

Hi Muaadh7

 

Could you post your project? Is the referenced VI in the same Component as this VI?

 

Thanks,
Frank

Hi Muaadh7, VI name "Multiply.gvi" is not enough. You must add a library name.

In this case, try "TestLib::Multiply.gvi".

 

If the VI is in Sub namespace, you can access the VI by "TestLib::Sub::Multiply.gvi".

 

Best,

In ordinary LV you can place a VI reference constant and drag a VI into it, there's no similar possibility in NXG?

Thank you Yamaeda.
I dragged the VI in a constant reference.
And I realized. He has a different name than is displayed in the library (TestLib) ...(I have no idea why)..See picture.
 
It works now. 🙂

What is the exact use case of Component reference node when we have the option of hard-coding the vi name in the input of open VI reference node?

Uh-oh, this sounds like a recurring theme in LV NXG.  Could it be related to this topic?  And make sure to browse the topic I refer to near the bottom, also.
