LabJack addition .

I got my hands on a used Labjack, down loaded some basic examples. compiled in VC6, they work.

compile in Delphi xe with a little editing, they work also in Fpc/Lazarus, all work.

However, in each of all, the little test I run montoring one of the inputs, it last for ~ hour or so and loses connection to the Labjack.

This happens to all cases, no matter the language, if I dump the DLL and reload, it then starts working again.

I'll need to dig deeper for something I am over looking.

I am first doing this to insure I have full understanding before including it into a tool I am making for online debugging of automation hardware etc.. I have only implemented a couple of calls from the DLL at this point. Any users of Labjack happen to know if there is a software timer in the DLL(driver) that I need to reset before I go on? This was done on both a Win7 and old W2k, same effect on both, no faults, just stops acc input.

Not that I know of, perhaps it's something wrong with the "used" module? I think there is a labjack forum.. it would probably be better to ask there.

(I had no problems running mine for hours...)

That seem to be the issue, the unit had a problem but I corrected it..

I take it out of the case and gave it a little heat in the oven, it has fixed it.

Now I can write a wrapper lib for it to make it native looking to the tool I am making.

Thanks

It's always a nice feeling, when something is broke, and you fix it, and you run it for the "first" time again.

Ahh, life is good.
