k8047 Velleman connecting with labVIEW trouble

[jancan]

Hi

I have a K8047 Velleman datalogger and we want to connect this with Labview.

This is the labVIEW program we used to read the data. (Found on this forum).

I can find the K8047 in the  'Meassurement and Automation Explorer' by using the NI-VISA driver.

After running this block program in labview, Here is no error code shown. But there is no data output on the screen too.

What can be the problem?

Thank you

Please don't say that you used the VISA Wizard to create your own driver. Did you find a forum post that told you to do that?

[jancan]

No, not on this forum. We just searched on the internet for a driver to connect labview with a USB cable.

Which driver do we need to use? Can you help us? 

Thank you.

You need to first undo everything that you did with the VISA Wizard. Then try the dll.

[jancan]

Ok thank you. We deleted the VISA Wizard. What do we need to do with the dll?

There are two dll files...

K8047D.dll

FASTTIME32.dll

We read on the forum that these two files as well as 

K8047e.exe needs to be in the same folder as the VI.

If we do so, we still get no  data?

[jancan]

Ok I was to fast.

We uninstalled the VISA Wizard and we restarted our program. Now we have the right data.

So THANK YOU very much Dutson!

You have no idea how much your small contribution is worth us!!
