Connecting PS 5443D to LabVIEW

Post by brucep »

Hi I'm trying to connect my PS 5443D to LabVIEW. I've downloaded and installed PicoSDK 10.7.19 (64-bit). The examples (both 5000 and 5000a since I'm not sure which one I should use) are achieved from GitHub. When I open the example file, it always warns me that cannot find some vi files (SubVI is missing). And if check the Instrument Driver Finder, there shows no connected instruments detected. I'm wondering how shall I connect my PS to LabVIEW 2020. Thanks so much for your help.

Hi,

I had the same problem and found a PicoScope.llb on GitHub, but LabVIEW can't found my Picoscope 5443D. I get a Error 5003.
Does it work with your LabVIEW now?

Greetings
Hannes

Hi Hannes,

Unfortunately, I cannot solve it either. I now choose to use matlab, which I feel is easier to do the data streaming I need. If you're interested in that, I may be able to help.

Best,
Yande

The error code 5003 means the device can't be found. This may be due to not installing the correct SDK from our downloads page to match your LabVIEW version 32bit or 64bit https://www.picotech.com/downloads, or more commonly because you are trying to run the ps5000 examples and not the ps5000a ones which are needed for the 5443D https://github.com/picotech/picosdk-ni- ... er/ps5000a

You also need the llb from the shared folderhttps://github.com/picotech/picosdk-ni-labview-shared/tree/4b23ba5445099462b4eb4c0e1505b85cc4a40edb
