Cannot run samples from SDK; 64 bit Labview, Pico 4000

Post by aasgreen »

Crosspost from 'Getting Started'


Hey there!

I'm having some trouble getting my Picoscope 4226 up and running with Labview. I've downloaded the sdk (ps4000sdk_r10_5_0_28), but when I try to run the sample programs I get the an error telling me that the program can't find the PicoScope4000Open.vi, PicoScope4000Settings.vi, and PicoScope4000GetBlock.vi can't be found.

I've already followed the labview guide (moving the ps4000.dll and ps4000wrap.dll to the current directory and the local user.lib folder), but I can't seem to get it to work.

The error message is that PicoScope4000Close.vi is not executable. When I investigate the sub vi, it tells me that Call Function Node 'ps3000.dll:_ps3000_open_unit@0'; Library not found.

I've also tried downloading the ps3000 SDK, and putting the ps3000.dll and ps3000.lib files in the same directory.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

That looks like a type in the 4000 vi.

Please edit so that any reference or name saying 3000 is replaced with 4000. I can't check at present as I do not have access to a PC with LabView installed

Hello,

I have exactly the same problem as user aasgreen. And I have tried the same things he did. Here is a screenshot from the error:

In my old windows XP machine my Pico 4227 works nicely.

Thanks for any help!

Hi,

Have you looked at http://www.picotech.com/support/topic12601.html

It shows how to set up the function calls using the dll.

The issue looks like the functional call is trying to use ps3000_open_unit when you should be calling ps4000_close_unit.

Thanks,
Karunen

Hi,
Could you please attach larger pictures of all the errors you are getting with the dll's, with your next post.

i'm very sorry about the picture...because resize picture due to limit size file upload

Thanks for your strong support
Best Regards
