Hii... everyone...

 my name is cahyo..

I need to know if Advantech ADAM 5000 TCP/IP can work or compatible with Labview? Is there anyone who has successfully work with Advantech ADAM 5000 TCP/IP. Care to share with me?

thank's for everyone..

please help me...

I'm currently using Advantech ADAM 5000/TCP modules in several LabVIEW projects with no problems.  For my current project I'm using the .NET interface, and the UDP broadcast feature to acquire data.  Older projects are using the DLL supplied with the older ADAM utility, but Advantech tells me that that library is no longer supported and they do not recommend that customers use it.  I haven't tried the Modbus interface but that is also an option.

thanks for yours attantion...but it's to difficult to mixed labview with advantech adam 5000TCP for ethernet...can you explain me, how to connect labview with advantech adam 5000 TCP????

best regards

Here's a VI saved for LabVIEW 8.6 that demonstrates communication with an ADAM-5000.  It's ripped out of code I'm currently using, with minimal modifications to make it run on its own.  The top loop demonstrates how to parse Stream data coming from the ADAM (set up streaming in the ADAM utility, make sure to enter your PC's IP address as the destination).  The lower loop shows how to write data to the ADAM using the .NET interface and MODBUS addressing.  You can easily use the same approach to read data, instead of using the UDP stream.  You will need to have the .NET class library installed, from Advantech's site.  There is documentation in C:\Program Files\ADVANTECH\Adam.NET Class Library\VS2003\Samples\Adam.NET.chm.

thanks for your help natand...

i have one more question,  if i using TCP open--TCP write--TCP read--TCP close..can be usefull for communication between labview and adam 5000 TCP??

and do you have  some program for that??

i need your help for finished my final project..

thanks a lott...

i'm sorry...

do you have some programs for communication between adam 5000 TCP/IP and labview 7.1???

i'm using labview version 7.1

can i have to know, what procedure for communication them??

thanks a lott and i hope you success 4ever

[nathand]

Sorry, I can't save the code I posted for LabVIEW 7.1 (and even if I could, I don't think it would support .NET).  You may be able to use the NI MODBUS Library to communicate with the ADAM.  You can also download the ADAM 5000 Utility, which comes with a DLL that you can call from LabVIEW, but you will need to read the documentation to configure the Call Library nodes.

hii everyone...

i want to ask about using toolbox TCP read, TCP write, TCP open and TCP close at labview 7.1???

did you have some example program VI through that???

i used that toolbox for connect labview 7.1 with advantech ADAM 5000 TCP /IP....

thank you for attention...
