(10a) Connect the 'reference out' terminal of the last Invoke Node (top right terminal, mouseover will show Galil.IGalil) to the 'reference' terminal of the Invoke Node. (10) Drop an 'Invoke Node' (Functions Palette/Connectivity/ActiveX) onto the Block Diagram to the right of the Invoke Node. (9b) Left-click on the Method element of the Invoke Node and choose 'libraryVersion'. (The text of the Invoke Node should change to 'IGalil' from 'Automation'.) (9a) Connect the 'reference out' terminal of the last Invoke Node (top right terminal, mouseover will show Galil.IGalil) to the 'reference' terminal of the Invoke Node. (9) Drop an 'Invoke Node' (Functions Palette/Connectivity/ActiveX) onto the Block Diagram to the right of the Invoke Node. (8b) Left-click on the Method element of the Invoke Node and choose 'connection'. (8a) Connect the 'reference out' terminal of the Property Node (top right terminal, mouseover will show Galil.IGalil) to the 'reference' terminal of the Invoke Node. (8) Drop an 'Invoke Node' (Functions Palette/Connectivity/ActiveX) onto the Block Diagram to the right of the Property Node. (7c) Right-clink on the Property element of the Property Node and choose 'Change to Write'. (7b) Left-click on the Property element of the Property Node and choose 'address'. (The text of the Property Node should change to 'IGalil' from 'Automation'.) (7a) Connect the 'Automation Refnum' terminal of the Automation Open funtion to the 'reference' terminal on the Property Node. (7) Drop a 'Property Node' (Functions Palette/Connectivity/ActiveX) onto the Block Diagram to the right of the Automation Open function. This can be done with most labview blocks/functions. Recommended for beginners to Labview- Right click on the Automation Open function, choose 'Visible Items/Label'. (6a) In the drop down box choose 'Galil Version x.x' (n.n is the version number, ex Galil Version 0.3). (6) Right-clink on the Automation Open function and choose 'Select ActiveX Class/Browse'. (5a) Drop the 'Automation Open' function onto Galil.vi Block Diagram. (5) In the Functions Palette ('View/Functions Palette'), expand 'Connectivity' then 'ActiveX'. (3) From the File menu choose 'Save As' ('File/Save As') and name the file Galil. Later versions should be compatible as well. Versions 8.0, 8.2 and 8.5 were also tested. (2) - Open National Instruments Labview Version 8.6.

#LABVIEW 8.0 SOFTWARE#

The free version of GalilTools contains the Communication Library, so no software purchase is required. Working vi's of the below examples, as well as other vi's can be found in the LabVIEW Hello Galil example.ДЎ - make sure GalilTools version 1.3.0.0 or later is installed on the PC. The COM wrapper includes all of the functionality of the base C++ class. This COM wrapper can be used in any language and IDE supporting COM (Visual Studio 2005, 2008, etc).

#LABVIEW 8.0 WINDOWS#

To further extend the language compatibility on Windows, a COM (Component Object Model) class built on top of the C++ library is also provided with Windows releases. The Linux version (libGalil.so) is compatible with g++ and the Windows version (Galil1.dll) with Visual C++ 2008.

#LABVIEW 8.0 FULL#

VB, C#, etc).Д«oth Full and Lite versions of GalilTools ship with a native C++ communication library. It consists of a native C++ Library and a similar COM interface which extends compatibility to Windows programming languages (e.g. The GalilTools Communication Library (Galil class) provides methods for communication with a Galil motion controller over Ethernet, RS-232 or PCI buses. The second covers the more advanced function of integrating COM events into a LabVIEW application.

#LABVIEW 8.0 HOW TO#

The first covers basics of how to integrate the GalilTools Communication Library into a LabVIEW application. Using the GalilTools Communication Library is the recommended method for any new applications that are being developed with LabVIEW. Details on using the Active X Toolkit with LabVIEW are covered in application note 4414. It requires the purchase of the Active X Toolkit for $595. This method has been the preferred method for any existing applications with LabVIEW and Galil motor controllers. This method is simple, but limited support is offered beyond the vi's that are provided on the Galil software CD.Дў - Not recommended for new Applications. DMCWin32 Library and Galil developed VI's. There are a few different methods for developing a LabVIEW application that can communicate to a Galil motor controller.ДЎ - Not recommended for new Applications.
