cDAQ 9132 RT not available in Device Browser

Hello,

 

I have installed

* LabView 2015

* RealTime Module 2015 (eval)

* FPGA Module 2015 (eval)

 

The cDAQ Advisor tells me, that the 913x (e.g. 9132) controllers have Real Time OS (RTOS or WES7).

So I should be able to select the controller controller when creating new project.

But I cannot see the controller:

(see attached screenshot).

 

Does anybody know why it is missing?

 

I have also attached my MAX Configuration.

 

Thank you in advance.

BR

Hi Eugen,

 

you can buy the cDAQ-9132 is RT or Windows Version.

Depending on wich one you bougth you can see it as a RT Target or not.

 

As far as I see in your Report it seems that you own the Windows Version, not the RT one.

 

Do you have a Partnumber of your Order to verify this?

 

Best wishes

No,

 

I have no Hardware,

I want to evaluate the LabView Real-Time Module with cDAQ Stand Alone Controller.

As NI told me, I need the LabView Real Time Module for developing for cDAQ 913x Chassis (with RTOS) .

So I started LabView and wanted to create a new RT project for cDAQ 9132.

But there is nothing I can select (as described above).

 

What should I do (install) so that the Device Browser allows selecting cDAQ 913x RT ?

 

Thanks

Hi Eugen,

 

when you simulate the Device in MAX, you always simulate a DAQmx Device.

 

You have to set up a new project or start with a sample project.

When you add a device, you should select "new target or device" and then expand the "Real-Time CompactDAQ" folder.

There you will find the cDAQ-9132 as a possible hardware.

 

When you select "Existing target or device" in the Add Targets and Devices Menue, it will always try to find real devices.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Best wishes

That is the problem!

 

When I create a new project and select "new target or device" and then expand the "Real-Time CompactDAQ" folder

IT DOES NOT offer any hardware (see attached screenshot in first post).

 

So my question is: why?

Did I forget anything to install?

Thanks

Hi Eugen,

 

when installing the DAQmx Driver be sure to install the Real-Time support of that ADE.

This is missing when installing the DAQmx driver beore installing Real-Time Module.

 

So reinstalling the DAQmx Driver and checking if that mark is set should help.

 

Hope this helps

This should be the solution for my problem:

I will try...

Repair of DAQmx did not help

Repair of Real Time Module did not help

Repair of many NI Software components did not help

 

Install of NI DAQmx 15.5 (full) did not help

 

Nothing seems to help

 

The files in "RT Images" seem to be correct (see attached)

The current MAX Config attached

The list of installed NI Software in Windows cannot be exported, so not attached...

 

Could anybody from the Research Team of DAQmx and/or RealTime Module have a look on it.

What is wrong? What should I reinstall?

 

Thank you

Strange,

 

when I am opening this small prepared project, it works (see attached screenshot)! So the target seems to be installed correctly

but it seems to be a problem with the Device Browser.

 

I have found out, that this item properties in the project file are important:

RT CDAQ Chassis

TargetCPUID = 9

TargetOSID = 19

 

For compare:

RT PXI Chassis

TargetCPUID = 3

TargetOSID = 15

 

Project snippets:
        cDAQ
            <Item Name="RT-CompactDAQ-Ziel" Type="RT CDAQ Chassis">
            <Property Name="alias.name" Type="Str">RT CDAQ_Chassis</Property>
            ..
            <Property Name="host.TargetCPUID" Type="UInt">9</Property>
            <Property Name="host.TargetOSID" Type="UInt">19</Property>
        
        PXI Chassis
            <Item Name="RT PXI Target" Type="RT PXI Chassis">
                <Property Name="alias.name" Type="Str">RT PXI Target</Property>                
                <Property Name="host.TargetCPUID" Type="UInt">3</Property>
                <Property Name="host.TargetOSID" Type="UInt">15</Property>

 

So, with this workaround it is possible to create Applications for cDAQ Chassis.

I can also create Project from template (see attached screenshot) but then I have to modify the lvproj project file manually.
