Hello all,
I'm working with LabVIEW 6.0.2 on Windows 2000 service patch 2. I have
two machines - one a development workstation, the other a portable.
They are not the same machine, but both are fast pentiums running the
same OS and LabVIEW version as mentioned above.
When I insert a "VISA resource name constant" into the wiring diagram
on my development workstation, I can use the manipulation cursor (the
hand) to select COM1, COM2, or LPT1. If I do the same thing on the
portable computer, I get different choices - the visa resource names
ASRL1::INSTR, ASRL2::INSTR, and ASRL10::INSTR. Such constants created
on one machine and then exported to the other create errors, although
they work on the machine in which they were created.
Why is
this happening? Right-clicking on the constants, they have the
same properties; under "Select VISA Class" and then "I/O Session",
"Instr" is checked. Nothing else is checked except "Size to Text".
These properties are the same on each computer.
