attila

thanks for the help.  If using the Analog Discovery 3 to generate my custom bit stream: 
"User-defined arbitrary waveforms: defined within WaveForms software user interface or using standard tools (e.g. Excel)"
-the WaveForms software is free and requires no license ?
-I can load a csv (comma seperated values) file into WaveFroms to help create a custom bit stream ,  then use the Analog Discovery 3 to generate the waveform? 
 
thanks 

hi @attila,

Thank you, issue is resolved. I had to shift the 7bit address 1 bit to the left '0x28 <<1' for the write operation. Now it is working.

A debugging feature, like a logger. which displayes the raw messages sent would be nice to have. Do you have something like this, which i could use for the future?
Similar like we see this in the gui:

Hello,
I uninstalled the USB Serial Converter and USB Serial Port drivers.  Then installed https://ftdichip.com/drivers/d2xx-drivers/ and it worked!  Thank you.

Never mind! It worked when I tried to do it via USB instead of AirDrop. Thanks! @attila

Thanks again Attila, that worked perfectly. I had forgotten about the new functionality of power supplies being used as a slow AWG.
Best,
Walid

I have downloaded version 3.20.30 and the code now works as expected.  Thanks again for all you help.

Thank you Attila, that was incredibly fast!
Best,
Walid

Hi @MNSKev
For the ADP5250 to be supported by LabVIEW/VirtualBench VIs the following DLL(s) needs to be replaced in Windows/System32 nilciuserapi.zip
If you are using 64bit Windows and a 64bit app (like the File Explorer):
- the nilciuserapi.dll from directory x64 should be copied to the Windows/System32 in order the 64bit apps to use it
- the nilciuserapi.dll from directory x86 should be copied to the Windows/SysWOW64 in order the 32bit apps to use it
For 32bit Windows the nilciuserapi.dll from directory x86 should be copied to the Windows/System32.
These DLLs should be included in a newer version of VirtualBench installer (like v20) but I'm not sure if this will happen.
I could include it in the WaveForms installer but it wouldn't be nice to overwrite files belonging to other kits.

Hi @Holger Senn
The limitation is from the low level library, niVB_Status_ErrorCannotRenameDeviceBecauseNameInUse
It does not allow devices to have the same name.
This can be tricked by renaming one from another computer.
If you connect multiple ADP5XXX or VirtualBench devices with the same name, only one will be listed/available !
To rename with one computer: close WaveForms (and LabView, VirtualBench app...), delete the following file, connect one device and rename.
C:\Users\[USER]\AppData\Local\National Instruments\NI-VirtualBench\ ni-virtualbench-devices.db

Hi @attila
Oh, thank you.
I’ll try latest one.

Hi @Anthocyanina
I tried to add reference clock output support to AD2, to allow AD2+AD3, but unfortunately the AD2 FPGA is so full that additional logic for such a feature cannot fit.

@attila
OK, I understand and try to do this. Thanks for the help.😉

Thank you for the new 40-bit mode on DD, it is even better than possible dual-mode.

Hi @Oznur Caliskan
The AWG/AnalogOut are DAC outputs without ADC readback.
The AmplitudeGet as all Get functions return the currently set value.
Newer device like AD3, ADP3X50... have in device filter channels and digital loopback for the AWG channels available as analog-in channels.

Hi @baldengineer
Use: Supplies.Output.Output1.Enable.value = 1;

Eclypse works well also, thanks again. I also like the separate pulldowns for wavegen and filter channels, those could get quite tall when stacked up!

Hi @Carl Troili
See the included example, I get above 3000 captures / second.

Hi @Carl Troili
It may be useful for you project the high resolution trigger time available with AD3, see the AnalogIn_Trigger.py example.

It works the same on my computer. I will add the signal generators and then repeat it.
 
Regards Carl

Thanks Attila

Great...thank you

Thanks, will try that tonight.

Thanks guys, sorry haven't checked forum in a while. Looks like my defective Eclypse is out for delivery in Washington, will await replacement!
 
Found a Waveforms bug, using the Eclypse this morning, will put in separate thread.

Okay thank you!

Ah, that did it.  Thank you!
