Code capture

[Newbie92]

Hai guyz, 

I'm having problem with my capture code tool. After I install it via VPIM it does not appear in my tool tab. Is there a step I've skipped?

Most likely you need to restart LabVIEW, because that's when LabVIEW builds the menu structure.

Newer versions of LabVIEW have a Menus.Refresh methods which you might be able to call to force this, but not the version that the CCT was saved in, so restarting is probably the best option.

Hai tst,

I've already refresh my LabView and I've even restart my laptop. The code capture still doesn't appear.

Another option is that you're not looking in the right place. It's under LAVA (I think this was a requirement of either the LAVA certification or of the LVTN):

Technically, this is done by having a VI called <LabVIEW>\project\LAVA\Code Capture Tool__CCT.vi, so you can check if it's there if you still don't see it. If it's not, I would suggest maybe uninstalling and reinstalling.

Hi tst,

Hurray, I manage to find out the fix. It seems its a bug for VPIM 2014. To fix it one have to install an update for their VPIM 2014 which could be found in this forum (http://forums.jki.net/topic/2358-cannot-install-code-capture-tool-in-vipm-2014/). Anyone who are facing similar problem could check out this forum out. Anyway thanks for ur help tst. Appreciate it.

Ah, you said you managed to install it. When that happens, it tells you that you can't install it. It's helpful to correctly describe the problem, or people won't be able to help you.

Another option for resolving this is to download a newer version of the CCT package which resolves this. There's one on LAVA - https://lavag.org/files/file/63-code-capture-tool/

Hai tst,

Hahaha.. Sorry, my bad. I'll try to be more precise next time. 🙂
