fpsane.cpp 367 error on LabVIEW

[Daniel Coelho]

Hi,

I have an application that uses TABs, and DLLs for FPGA, GPIB, PCI and CAN devices. I also have a TestStand UI on one of the TABs.

Sporadicaly I get the error concerning fpsane.cpp line 367.

Can someone explain me where this error is coming from?

"fpsane.cpp error" is a frequently asked question. A search would have yielded many posts regarding this. The most likely cause is something got corrupted on the front panel. Try using a backup, or start deleting items until you see the error go away.

Other post don't refer to line 367... 

I've seen the description of this error.

But I don't understand the concept of locking a tab.

What is that? How is it done.

[Daniel Coelho]

I managed to find the menu that Locks a control, but I don't use it on TABs nor on anything else.

So the description I've read about this error doesn't apply to me.

Still would apreciate any help.

The line number will vary depending on the control and the specific issue. It's almost always a problem with the front panel. I do not understand what you are referring to as far as "locking" the tab, and which "description of the error" you are referring to. Do you have the link to a specific KB article or thread?

If you can, post your VI so others can take a look at it.

I found a description of this error a while ago and I saved it as pdf. See the attachement.

The fpsane.cpp line 367 was refered as being an error associated with locking a tab that is already locked. (Menu Group->Lock)

I had a hard time figuring out what that was but I now know that I'm not locking any controls.

So, if the problem is with the front panel, how do I search for an *sporadical* error?

I can't post the VIs because it isn't a small project.

What else could help to find this error?

You have a number of possible courses:

• Your best bet is to go back to an earlier version which did not experience the problem and start adding to it bit by bit. If the error crops up again you will have isolated the problem.
• Delete controls and/or indicators and create new ones. Do not do a "replace". You must delete them and create new ones and wire up the new ones. 
• Switch to the block diagram, select the entire block diagram, and drag it onto the block diagram of a new VI. Everything will get transferred over. Save the new VI and work with this to see if the problem goes away.
• Follow the steps outlined here.
• Select "Investigate Now" when LabVIEW starts so your failure log can be submitted.

This is a file a found when I pressed Investigate Error.

I'm not sure if this is any help.

I'm disabling some parts of the code and I've copy/paste the intire VI to a new VI.

But since the error is sporadic I'm not sure if the problem persists or not.

I'll keep posting my results.

Hi smercurio_fc,

I changed some controls on the front panel and I never had the same problem.

Thank you for the hints.

Sorry for the delay.

Good to hear that you got the problem resolved.
