Hi,

I have written a tool. I want to monitor this tool's performance by writting another tool. Now how do I connect these two tools?

Hello Roma,

Regarding your question, if you could be a little bit more descriptive on what you want to monitor in the application, and how your application is set up, it would help the community to suggest a course of action for you.

In general, you can communicate between applications in various ways (TCP, DataSocket,etc). I would suggest opening Example Finder in CVI (Help >> Find Examples) and take a look at the TCP and Datasocket shipping examples.

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks a lot for the reply.

To be more precise, I have a written a tool, which is used for testing compass used in high end automotives. I have used CANcaseXL hardware as an interface between PC and compass. I have made CANcaseXL to support LIN protocol. I have written a driver for this CANcaseXL hardware.

Now, I am supposed to develop one more tool, which monitors the performance of this driver. Performance includes throughput, etc.

Also, is it possible to display the waveform in GUI, instead on Oscilloscope?

Roma, I know nothng about that particular interface you mentioned but I know you can definately display your data in your GUI by using the CVI strip chart control, which can display graphical data in real time.  You can find out more about this control & how to use it by searching the example code as Wendy L suggested & also by using CVI's online help.
