FAQ; EVAL-ADIS Software Development Tools, LabVIEW

Q:

Do you have any examples for using LabVIEW to manage device evaluation on the EVAL-ADIS evaluation system?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A:

Please see the attached file, along with the figures in this post.  This code comes from LabVIEW 2011, 32-bit. Note that this code requires that that the read rates be at least 5Hz. Now, our question back to you is, "is this useful?"  Please post your questions and feedback. This represents a "test run" for this type of software support, which does not automatically come with the purchase of the EVAL-ADIS.

    These routines were tested on the ADIS16375 and ADIS16488 only, but the register access is the same for virtually all of the ADIS162xx, ADIS163xx and ADIS164xx products, so we would expect this to work for all of those products, assuming that the code changes are made to accommodate the different register information.

    With respect to supporting v2012, we would expect this to work, but have not tested it ourselves.  We are presently looking for a more efficient way to support evaluation through LabVIEW. We don't presently use LabVIEW ourselves and the person that developed these routines are no longer with the company. For now, this is what we have available.

    I was trying to use the LabVIEW program for the EVAL-ADIS, but I can't seem to run the program as it shows over a 100 broken wires. It seems like the main issue is regarding the invoke nodes within the program. I am using LabVIEW 2012 and a MacBook Pro running iOS.

    Hello! Thank you for giving this a shot. Unfortunately, we have no direct experience in using our evaluation tools with iOS so I am afraid that I am not going to be much help for this case.  Fortunately, Windows-compatible laptops are fairly inexpensive, as some have acquired machines just for this purpose.

    Luckily I have a spare Windows laptop on me! I downloaded LabVIEW 2014 and tried running the attached file. Thankfully it brought down my errors from over 100 to just two. It seems like it is having issues with the invoke nodes labeled "Adis Object". The exact details for both said "One or more required inputs to this function are not wired or are wired incorrectly. Show the Context Help window to see what the connections to this function should be." I fear that one of the main reasons I am having this issue is due to version compatibility. Do you have any advice for trying to diagnose the issues at hand here?  Any help is appreciated greatly!
