Problem running FrontPanelStates.vi example

[Tom J]

I'm trying to run the example VI "FrontPanelStates.vi".  When I do, I get the following error message:

    Error 15 occurred at Open VI Reference in FrontPanelStates.vi

    LabVIEW:  Resource not found.
    =========================
    NI-488:  Serial poll byte queue overflow.

    An error occurred loading VI 'runvi.llb'.
    LabVIEW load error code 8: Could not load VI resource.

I don't have 488 in the system.  Does this example use it in some fashion?

I'm really trying to debug the procedure for loading a VI front panel into a subpanel, and be able to change the displayed data.  Could this problem be interfering with that?  Can anyone offer suggestions for this the "real" problem?

Thanks for any help.

You did not notice the Possible Reason(s) part? That means that the error code can have a couple of causes - depending on where it occurs. Since you are not using GPIB and are using LabVIEW, then the first reason would apply. When you ran it, did you pick a valid VI or did you try to select a different type of file such as an llb?

p.s. you should have posted this question in the LabVIEW forum.

Thanks Dennis.

My last posting was to this Forum and this time I didn't notice that the link wasn't generic.  Moving the topic to the appropriate forum.
