Bad type case Error in DVR

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi All,

 

I m facing an issue when using DVR. My code snippet is given below

DVR Issue.PNG

 

As shown in the block diagram, I used two different methods for DVR write and Read which are L1&L2 and L3&L4

L1 and L2 is working as expected.

I m getting an error from L3&L4, which is bad type case error (error 1448)

 

Here I have a class called "Data" and under data I have the child classes , like "SGL Array","Boolean Array" and etc

There is a Communication class and DVR class is inherited from communication class

 

Can anyone suggest what could be the problem in L3&L4. why is it behaving differently when it is inside a member class VI. I have the same code inside the member class vi which is highlighted in red color rectangle.

 

Thank you

Exactly - what's happening in the subvis is where the issue is, and they obviously aren't just what you have outlined as what is in them.

Dear Paul,

 

Thanks for your reply,

 

Please find the attached code (DVR Test.7z) . Kindly review the same.

Something is wrong with your .7z file.  I get an error when trying to open it.  Something about an unsupported command.

 

Please attach a real zip file and not a .7z file.

In loop L4, you are trying to cast the output of "Communication.lvclass:Read Data Out.vi" to "SGL Array.lvclass".  However at runtime, it does not contain a "SGL Array.lvclass", it contains "Data.lvclass" so the "To More Specific Class" must fail.

But same logic is working in Loop 2

This is why using error IO is always helpful - you've got a bug in your DVR start method - you're not wiring the output of the DVR write accessor to the output class, so neither loop 3 nor loop 4 is using a valid DVR. After fixing this, both setups work.
