Error occurred while executing niRFSG Arbitrary Waveform Generator

I have found examples for niRFSG from the following path -

C:\Prog Files\National Instruments\Lab View\examples\instr\niRFSG

 

But I did not see any such folder for RFSA.

But there is one folder ni5660 which has examples. Are these the ones for RFSA?

 

Thanks,

Sharmi

These are where mine are:

 

C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2011\examples\instr\niRFSA

C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2011\examples\instr\niRFSG

 

If yours are not there, I would reinstall the drivers:

RFSA: http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/2921/lang/en

RFSG: http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/2710/lang/en

 

Thank you,

Thanks for the help.

 

Do I need to install niRFSA in order to view the signal generated from RFSG Single Tone Generation.vi, or I can follow the steps mentioned in the RFSA Soft Front Panel --> Help -->Using NI RFSA Soft Front Panel?

Hi Vimal,

 

Thanks so much I could see the single tone generated by the ni RFSG.
 I have come to the next stage of design and again I have few questions.
I need to build a trans-receiver system using PXI. For the transmission part I can use a PXI 5652 to generate a single tone continuous waveform like you had said in previous replies.
For the receiver part, I need an antenna to capture the signal transmitted by 5652 (which will have a transmission antenna ). The received signal will then be down converted by PXI 5601 (RF OUT of 5652 is connected to LO IN of 5601). The intermediate frequency will be then digitized by PXI 5622 (IF OUT of 5601 is connected to IF IN of 5622).
But my question is these connections are already there between the slots/chassis.(The next stage has I/Q demodulation but I want to get clear on this part first). But there is not output port on the PXI 5622, so how can I check the digitized output?


Sorry for such a long message. I have attached a file for your reference.

 

Thanks,
Sharmi

Hello Sharmi,

 

In order to keep our discussion forums organized, you will have to create a new discussion forum post with your new question. This helps us keep the forums organized and spread the work load.
