What can cause to error - NI-XNET: The NI-XNET driver no longer can communicate with the device.

Hi,

I'm using X-NET NI - PCI8512, OS: Windows 7, C++ (QT environment).

I'm pooling data from card (StreamIn) at ~100Hz. Read time from card (ReadStatus) at ~100Hz.

After about 40 min (depend on the amount of data in) I get that error:

 (Hex 0xBFF630B2) The NI-XNET driver no longer can communicate with the device. Solution: Make sure the device has not been removed from the computer.

What can cause to that error?

Thanks for advance,

Aviad

Hello aviadCielo,

When you get this error, what do you need to do in order to get it working again? If you restart your program, does everything start working?

Secondly, what version of NI-XNET are you using? This may be a software issue that could be solved by upgrading to NI-XNET 1.6.

Finally, can you reproduce this issue with a simple program? If so, can you attach the program you're using?

Thanks for the replay!

• The problem vanished as I restart the program.
• I'm using ver. 1.5. I will try to upgrade my version' and if It's do not make it' I will try to send simple code.

Thanks again,

OK!

After upgrading to version 1.6, I get this ERROR:

NI-XNET: (Hex 0xBFF63007) Computer went to hibernation mode and the board lost power. Solution: prevent the computer from going to hibernation mode in the control panel.

And after implementing the suggestion solution, It is seem that it work out...

Thanks again,
