Vue consoles of MA revision and earlier should not be updated beyond firmware v3.00. It is vital to correctly identify the type of console you have and only to attempt to upload firmware for that specific console type. Download the correct firmware for your specfic console type from the Davis website at.(NB See notes at the foot of this page for downloads of v1.9 VP2 firmware and v3.00 Vue firmware.) Simply run the downloaded firmware executable file (with the console/logger connected to the PC of course!) and follow the on-screen instructions.This method also works with the WeatherlinkIP logger, except of course that connection to the console/logger is made across your local network rather than direct from PC to logger.Īdditional firmware comments Vantage Console Firmware The firmware will upload through the logger into the console. The Vantage Pro 2 and Vue consoles are designed with upgradeable firmware (firmware being akin to software built in to the console that controls all aspects of its features and operation). LJconfig 1.07 - Changes the local ID of the U12 with a serial number reference.In response to user feedback, which has, for example, prompted changes to the way in which certain wind speed values are displayed.To accommodate new VP accessory components (eg wireless repeaters), sensors and stations.To allow new console features to be added.Why should upgradeable firmware be necessary? There are a number of reasons, including: #Logger pro 3.12 pro#.LJcounter 1.07 - Reads a counter value and provides the frequency.LJfg 1.07 - Analog output waveform generator. LJSHTmulti 1.01 - Reads data from multiple EI-1050 temperature/humidity probes.LJSHT 1.04 - Reads data from a EI-1050 temperature/humidity probe.LJtest 1.18 - Testing program to verify hardware operation.LJstream 1.08 - Logs data up to 300Hz, from up to 4 channels.LJscope 1.08 - Simulated oscilloscope with 2 analog inputs.LJlogger 1.12 - Logs data up to 2Hz, performs basic trigger events. FlowStone - A free graphical program similar to LabVIEW.ĭAQFactory Express - A free graphical program with many capabilities.These applications are not included with the LabJack installer, but can be downloaded on their respective software site. If you know any language we probably support it. This includes C, C++, C#, Delphi, Java, LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, MATLAB, Python, and Visual Basic (VB6/VB.NET). The list of examples below is not completely exhaustive. There are often alternate ways to communicate with a LabJack. If the following examples are not sufficient, see the device datasheet for more details. Two separate and somewhat related questions:ġ. I and my colleagues are avid users of both the U3 and U6 devices using LDLogUD on Windows-based machines and have implemented these devices on a number of instruments in my physical and analytic chemistry laboratories. The text files created by LDLogUD are easily imported in our hands into the Igor Pro data analysis and visualization program. This represents a very successful configuration for us. We are currently in the process of implementing one instrument with a Linux machine. We're talking to a U6 using a home-made C program.Īt this time we are interested in branching out to OSX-based machines and interfacing the U3 and U6 directly with the Igor Pro. The UD library includes an Igor Pro XOP which is usable only on Windows machines. Is there a comparable XOP for use on OSX machines? If not, is the source available for this XOP to provide a basis for end-customer development for this application? Are there other LJ staff suggestions for accomplishing this application?Ģ. While the LJ software support information is quite extensive and helpful it would be even more so if there is some architectural or system-level information on the various libraries (UD, LJM and U12) that explains succinctly the commonality and differences among them. We've managed to pull this information out of the existing docs but it has taken a fair amount of work and we remain uncertain of the extent of our knowledge. It would be wonderful if the LJ architects would provide the definitive information in this area. On a last note I will express many thanks to LJ staff for the creation and support of a great set of products that have proven very helpful to me and my colleagues in our work. Our experience with Igor Pro is fairly limited. For Windows support I can look around but I think what is included in the download is all we have. We are currently poring the LJM library (For the T7) over to various languages/programs and might look at doing Igor Pro support for that (For Windows & OSX).
