Hi sddd,

 

To use the PCI-6251 with LabVIEW 8.2, you just need to make sure to install a driver version of NI-DAQmx that supports that version of LabVIEW. The drivers can be downloaded from our website at www.ni.com/updates, and the readme files for each driver version discuss what it supports.

 

If you will need to use both LabVIEW 8.0 and 8.2 with the device, then you will need to download and install NI-DAQmx 8.7.1, which is the latest driver with support for LabVIEW 8.0. However, if you are going to use LabVIEW 8.2 or later exclusively, I would strongly suggest downloading the latest version of the driver, as it will provide full support for any newer features and fixed issues. Hope this helps,

Hi sddd,

 

What are you seeing happen when you try and download the driver? Is it giving you an error message or does it appear to try to download and then just stop? Are you clicking on the top link for the downloader or the second one for the standard download? I would suggest trying to click the second link, which is a direct download of the file, if the downloader is not working. This download is actually quite large (839 MB), so it may be difficult to get if you do not have a fast connection. Also, you will need to be signed in to the website to download the driver, though I do not think this is your problem since you are able to post on the forums. What browser are you using? I am not aware of any problems with a particular browser, but there is a slight chance this could be an issue. Finally, if you cannot get this to work, it may be possible that you are behind a firewall which will not allow you to download a *.exe file. Please let me know if you are still having trouble after trying these suggestions and if you have more information regarding the questions I asked. Thanks,

Hi,

 

I attached some developer zone articles and discussion forums that discuss neural networks and implementing them in LabVIEW.

Hi

 

It depends on what kind of data that you want to share between the two VIs.  If you want to share just a boolean or double with non deterministic updating you could use network shared variables.  Here is a link that explains their use.

 

Using the LabVIEW Shared Variable

 

The recommended way if you were trying to transfer multiple data types would be to use TCP/IP.  Below I referenced a few helpful links that will show what TCP/IP is and how to implement it in LabVIEW.

 

A Simple TCP/IP Messaging Protocol for LabVIEW

Simple TCP/IP Messaging (STM) Reference Library

 

Also, there are some examples in LabVIEW that show how to use implement TCP/IP.  These programs are located in the LabVIEW Example Finder>>Networking>>TCP and UDP.

Hi,

 

To view a VI on a another computer you could use remote front panels.  The link below is from the LabVIEW help and shows how to accomplish this task.

 

Connect to Remote Panel Dialog Box
