I am trying to use generate code in signal express to import into labview.

I get this error when i try to generate code in signal express to export to labview . I have tries the error suggestions but I am still having problems. any help would be appreciated

 

 

The version of LabVIEW you are generating code into does not contain all the necessary SignalExpress support files. Make sure you launch the version of LabVIEW with SignalExpress support installed before generating code from SignalExpress. If you want to generate code into more than one version of LabVIEW, uninstall SignalExpress and all versions of LabVIEW except the earliest.  Install SignalExpress, then install any other versions of LabVIEW.  Copy the files from the vi.lib\express\SignalExpress directory of the earliest installed version of LabVIEW into the same sub-directory location of any other version of LabVIEW in which you want to include support for code generation.

Typically, this problem is repaired by following the directions on the error message. Since it was not, can you please give us more information so we can start determining the cause?

  1. What version or versions of LabVIEW do you have installed?
  2. What version or versions of SignalExpress do you have installed?
  3. Could you post a file with a listing of the files in <vi.lib>\express\SignalExpress for the version of LabVIEW you are trying to use. You can either post a screenshot (in PNG or GIF format) of the directory dialog or use the command prompt to generate a list to a file (preferred). To generate a list with the command prompt, do the following:
    1. Launch the command prompt from the start menu — Start»Programs»Accessories»Command Prompt
    2. Navigate to the drive you have LabVIEW installed on ( usually C: ) — C:
    3. Change directory to the appropriate LabVIEW directory — cd "\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.2\vi.lib\express\SignalExpress". Change the LabVIEW version to the one you actually are using.
    4. Do a directory listing and redirect the output to a file — dir > filename.txt. You can use any full path for the filename.txt. If you specify a simple name, it will end up in the current directory.
  4. Please post your project.
  5. Verify that you are using the version of LabVIEW you think you are by launching it before you start code generation.

Thanks for your patience.

Thanks for the reply. I am new to labview but have used signalexpress in the past. I had signal express already installed on my computer ver 2.5 . I purchased labview development 8.5.  and installed.There are no other versions of labview installed that I am aware of.  I have tried the following     Run labview before running signal express / tools / generate code. I assume Labview was installed with signal express support. Do I need to reinstall signal express even if I have only one version of labview? Thanks for your patience and help!

 

regards

It sounds like you just need to reinstall SignalExpress.  You can either uninstall and reinstall or just do a repair.

re installed a newer version of sig express. This worked. Thanks......I thought that new version of labview would have included new version of sig express. I purchased labview with blackfin module and it has been a bit testy ( limited user knowledge) unfortunetly our schedule doesnt include learning curve etc.....thanks again
