Ocean Optics USB2000+ no registration in LabView

[alexlehn]

Hello,

I'm student and just starting with LabView from the basics. I'm using the Ocean Optics USB2000+ spectrometer with

1. OmniDrivers from the Ocean-Optics website
2. drivers (offered by LabView itself)
3. LabView 2013 (32-bit)

My problem is that I can registrate the spectrometer in the NI MAX, but not in LabView. I'm using the wrapper vi's to test it. For example wrapper_openAllspectrometer...

I searched for solutions in this forum but didn't find anything. Sry if it's a really simple question.

Thanks for help, Alex.

Hi

The omnidriver itself is not needed. The LabVIEW driver takes control of the hardware directly. Making it much easier except when you install both drivers.

Did you use the inf file (read documentation how to do that) ?

Hi,

and can I use the wrapper vi's without the omnidriver, too? I found a tutorial about how to use the USB2000+ from ocean optics with these wrappers and the labview program itself looks really easy.

Yes I installed the inf-file with vista in it by right click/install.

Thanks, Alex.

It is either version they bite each other a bit...
