Waveform graph fails to update in executable, works fine in development environment.

[Andy Peters]

I'm using LV2009 with the 9.0f2 patch installed, on 32-bit Windows XP.

My project has a waveform graph that shows the output of a limit test (using Limit Testing.vi). Basically I have a for loop that calls a subVI that captures a waveform from a USB-5132 digitizer and does the limit test comparison; the outputs of this subVI are a pass/fail flag and the waveform.

This all works well when running in the development environment. However, after building an executable and running it on the development machine, the waveform graph is never updated -- it's simply blanked. I know the capture loop is running because I can see an indicator (driven by the loop's iteration terminal) update as expected.

Any ideas about this? Some searching here brought up references to a CAR that indicated that the 9.0f2 patch would solve similar problems, and as noted above, that patch is already installed on my system.

Thanks,

 Hi Andy,

First, since you have installed the f2 patch, I assume that you have rebuilt this using this patch.  Have you tried doing this with just a generic example program?  Or is this limited to just this VI?  Try building a simple VI that would pass a waveform from a subVI to a waveform graph.  Also, you could try in your Limit Test to put a non-Waveform Graph indicator in the VI--does this update?

Hi,

Actually, I installed the f2 patch immediately after installing LV2009, so this was never built without the patch. I will try your suggestions later today.

Are there any specific settings I need to deal with when building apps? 

Thanks,
