| 48016 3P7CBB4Q Return |
Unsigned int32 loses value in formula node when you write to the most significant bit If you wire a hex value greater than x7FFFFFFF as an unsigned, 32-bit integer to a Formula Node, LabVIEW coerces the value to 0. If you use a negative number for U32 input/output variable, LabVIEW will coerce the value to 0. Workaround: 1. Use the Mathscript node or LabVIEW code for the operation that involves an unsigned, 32-bit integer. 2. Use signed 32-bit integers instead of unsigned 32-bit integers in the formula node.

| 48100 3PCAD0J1 Return |
Save As»Substitute Copy affects all projects in memory, not just the one that does the Save As operation. If you have Alpha.vi loaded into two separate projects, these are two independent VIs in memory. If you do Save As»Rename then, LabVIEW correctly renames the VI in both projects since the actual source on disk has changed. However, if you do Save As»Substitute Copy, only one project should change. Workaround: Close any projects that you want to contain the original VI before performing the Save As»Substitute Copy operation.

| 48855 3W6K2TMQ Return |
Undo on a private data control can leave you in a state where File»Apply Changes is needed but disabled Editing a private data control and then undoing the edits removes the documentation modification on the class. However, while the owning class is broken and expects you to apply the changes you made, the File»Apply Changes menu option is disabled on the private data control. Workaround: Select File»Save or File»Close to save or close the private data control.

| 50420 44CG88SN Return |
Update the Pulse Transition Measurement Express VI The terminology and measurement definitions for the Transition Measurements VI comply with IEEE Standard 181-2003, IEEE Standard on Transitions, Pulses, and Related Waveforms. However, the Timing and Transition Measurements Express VI does not comply with this IEEE Standard. Workaround: The Slew rate refers to the transition slope. The Preshoot refers to the pre-transition undershoot (rising pulse) or the pre-transition overshoot (falling pulse). The Overshoot refers to the post-transition undershoot (rising pulse) or the post-transition overshoot (falling pulse).

| 50616 45ME5NJ1 Return |
Cannot create an override member VI for both a child class and a grandchild class unless you first save the VI that contains the child class You cannot create a VI that overrides the functionality of a child class and then create another VI that overrides the functionality of a grandchild class unless you first save the VIs you want to override. Thus, if you right-click a LabVIEW class in the Project Explorer window and select New»VI for Override from the shortcut menu to create child:A.vi, you cannot select New»VI for Override for the grandchild class to create grandchild:A.vi until you save child:A.vi. This issue occurs because you cannot have two VIs in memory with the same filename that have never been saved. Workaround: Save the VI before you try to override any LabVIEW classes in that VI.
|
|||||
| 51185 47FGSQCS Return |
Cannot save VI as the same name as missing library member VI If a library contains a VI and the VI is missing, you should be able to save a VI as the same name as the missing VI in order to rebuild the missing VI. Currently, LabVIEW does not allow this. Workaround: Delete the item from the library, save the new VI as the same name as the missing VI and then move the VI into the library.
|
|||||
| 51311 477DKPBQ Return |
LabVIEW does not maintain child-only item setting when dragging an item within a tree If you have a tree item with the child-only setting, and then drag it within the tree, LabVIEW loses the child-only setting. Workaround: Use tree events to (1) get the child-only flag setting when the user begins a drag, and (2) reset the child-only flag after completing a drop.

|||||
| 52027 4A4GRP00 Return |
Cannot use the 'New>>VI for Override...' dialog to create override of password-protected VI unless you have the password You use the 'New>>VI for Override...' dialog to override an ancestor VI in a LabVIEW class if the VI you want to override is password-protected. Workaround: Make a public VI which wraps the functionality of the private VI, and instruct others to override the public VI.
|

| 52263 4AJA41TQ Return |
Some operations on integer waveforms lose dt value Some functions, such as Absolute Value and Logarithm Base 10 operate as you expect with DBL Waveforms, but when you apply the same functions to an I16 waveform, for example, the Absolute Value function works as you expect while the Logarithm Base 10 function loses the sampling interval dt value. LabVIEW resets the sampling interval dt value to 1.00. If the input waveform to the log function has a time stamp for t0, that value is also lost. Workaround: Extract the Y-array of the waveform and perform the needed operations on Y before re-building the waveform.

|||||
| 52753 4C08OCJ1 Return |
Locking all classes in inheritance hierarchy does not hide protected member VIs When you lock a class, all the private member VIs are hidden in the project tree. According to the documentation, if all the classes in a class hierarchy are locked then the protected member VIs should also be hidden. They are not. This is strictly a display issue. Protected VIs are protected and cannot be accessed except within the class and its descendant classes. Workaround: N/A

Multi-column listbox format lost on upgrade A Multicolumn listbox created in LV 7.1 may lose its format when opened in LV 8.5 or later. Column headers lose their 3D appearance and font formatting might be lost. Workaround: Replace the Listbox and recreate all customizations
|
|||||
| 112847 Return |
Changing LV class inheritance does not always fix broken wires A child class wire can always connect to a parent class terminal. You may connect a class to another class and get a broken wire, if the wire's class does not inherit from the terminal's class. In the case where the class wire is used but there are no controls/indicators/constants of the class anywhere on the VI, the wire will still be broken. The bug exists if the class is an output wire from one subVI call and an input wire to another subVI call. The inverse problem also exists: Alpha.VI is saved when class A inherits from class B. Now, while Alpha.vi is not in memory, change A to not inherit from B. Load Alpha.vi. It should load broken, but it does not. Forcing a recompile will cause the VI to break. Workaround: Any action that causes LabVIEW to re-evaluate the wire will work to fix this problem. Some options include unloading and reloading the broken VI, deleting the broken wire and rewiring, force recompiling the VI (CTRL+Run Arrow). If you have many broken VIs that need to be fixed simultaneously, hold down Shift+Ctrl when clicking the run arrow to re-evaluate all VIs in memory.

|||||
| 120686 Return |
Write to LabVIEW Measurement Files (LVM) using Express VIs takes up a lot of memory The "Write to Measurement File" Express VI consumes a large amount of memory when writing to a Text File (LVM). However, the memory usage is smaller when the same Express VI is used to write a TDM/TDMS File Workaround: Use general LabVIEW VIs (and not Express VIs) to perform an LVM write for large amounts of data. The other option would be to write in smaller chunks.

| 51179 47B12U5U Return |
Error 6 occurred at Create Folder in Create Directory Recursive.vi when building an application (EXE), shared library (DLL), source distribution or web service When building a Build Specification, the build process fails with Error 6 at Create Folder in Create Directory Recursive.vi. This usually happens if the path one of the files generated by the build (temporarily during the build process or as part of the output) is too long. The operating system requires paths for files to be less than 255 characters. Workaround: 1. Use a shorter path for your build destination (i.e. c:\build\) and if necessary copy the output to the final location you need. 2. A. For application (EXE) and shared library (DLL) build specifications, place a checkmark in the Use LabVIEW 8.x file layout checkbox on the Advanced page of the Properties dialog box. 2. B. For source distribution or web service build specifications, uncheck the Preserve disk hierarchy checkbox on the problem Destination on the Destinations page of the Properties dialog box.

| 155226 Return |
LVM files saved by LabVIEW 8.6 cannot be read by SignalExpress 3.0 The LVM file format in LabVIEW 8.6 was changed to support localization of the decimal separator. This caused a version change to the file format. SignalExpress correctly determines that it cannot read the file, but returns an incorrect error. It should be a version error, not a file type error. Workaround: Open the file in a text editor. If the decimal separator is set to period, change the read and write versions to 1 and it will work. If the decimal separator is set to comma, replace all the commas with periods, replace the decimal separator field itself with a period, and change both versions to 1. SignalExpress will now read the file.

| 138552 Return |
Load VRML File.vi missing "error in" terminal In LabVIEW 8.6, the "error in" terminal was removed from the Load VRML File.vi. LabVIEW 8.2/8.5 has this terminal. Thus, if a VI that has the Load VRML File VI is upgraded to 8.6, the previously working VI will be broken. Workaround: Place a case structure around the Load VRML File VI to handle the error manually.

NI Distributed System Manager does not show deployed libraries if they contain non-Latin characters. If a library with non-Latin characters (such as Japanese, Chinese, or Korean) is deployed, it will not show up in the NI Distributed System Manager tree view. Workaround: Rename the library using only the Latin alphabet and re-deploy the library.

| 136989 Return |
Executable can't find some VIs due to the General Error Handler On upgrading to LabVIEW 8.6, some executables do not run because they are missing VIs. These VIs include vi.lib\Utility\error.llb\Not Found Dialog.vi vi.lib\Utility\miscctls.llb\LVBoundsTypeDef.ctl vi.lib\picture\picture.llb\Get Text Rect.vi vi.lib\event_ctls.llb\eventvkey.ctl The missing VIs can be traced to the General Error Handler. Workaround: Perform a Force Compile (CTRL + Shift + Run Button) on the Top Level VI to recompile the entire hierarchy. If you still experience the problem, open the VIs which call the missing subVIs (e.g. General error Handler CORE.vi) and force compile those VIs. Check the following KB 1A99CBIT for more information about force compile.

"Save As:Copy" on a nested library breaks member VIs if use option to add copied library to owner library If you have a nested library, a library that is owned by another library, and you use Save As:Copy, there is an option to add the duplicate library to the original owner library. If you use this option, the member VIs of the duplicate library are all broken because they are not correctly named as members of the owning library. This bug affects all types of libraries, .lvlib, .lvclass, .xctl and .lvsc. Workaround: Option 1: Do not use the "add to owning library" option and instead add the duplicate library to the owner manually after the copy. Option 2: After the copy operation, move the duplicate library out of the owner library and then move it back into the owner library.

Repeated Loading & Unloading of the Analysis Library Generates Exception This problem has only been reproduced on Linux using the latest versions of MKL v10.x, and has been reported to Intel as 545399. Some analysis VIs in LabVIEW use Intel's Math Kernel Library (MKL) internally to compute results. Opening these VIs or using them on another VI's diagram loads the MKL library. When all references to these analysis VIs are closed, the MKL library is unloaded from memory. When working with a VI that use these analysis VIs, the following development patterns can lead to this problem: 1. Dynamically opening and closing references to the VI while no references to the analysis VIs are in memory. 2. Iteratively opening and closing the VI while no other analysis VIs are loaded in memory. 3. Using the File >> Close All operation in between editing one or more VIs that use the analysis VIs. Workaround: To avoid the exception, the MKL library must remain in memory during the entire LabVIEW session. You can achieve this in many ways: 1. Open the front panel of an analysis VI that loads MKL and keep it open until exiting LabVIEW. 2. Open a reference to an analysis function that loads MKL and close the reference before closing LabVIEW. The A x B.vi from the Mathematics >> Linear Algebra palette is an example of analysis function that serves this purpose.

| 168005 Return |
Dynamic Variable API Does Not Support I/O Servers that Use Ranges You cannot use the Variable classes, properties, and methods or the associated Shared Variable functions (Dynamic Variable API) to dynamically read and write PSP items published by an I/O Server that uses a Range item. For example, Modbus I/O Servers and Lookout Ranges are affected by this issue. Workaround: If you want to use the Dynamic Variable API to read or write one of these PSP items, you can create a network-published shared variable and bind it to the PSP item. Then you can use the Dynamic Variable API to read and write the bound shared variable.

Large matrix operations that utilize the Intel MKL on Windows and Linux may crash LabVIEW When one or more matrix operations consumes most of the system resources, the Intel MKL library produces an unhandled exception that results in a LabVIEW application crashing. This Intel library is used to accelerate fundamental linear algebra operations performed under Windows and Linux operating systems. This issue has been reproduced outside the LabVIEW execution environment and a bug report has been submitted to Intel. Because the crash is tied to system resources, it can manifest itself in many ways. For example, we have reliably reproduced the problem by: 1. Decomposing a large matrix into multiple large matrices. Specific example: Computing the singular value decomposition (SVD) of a 2500-by-2500 matrix on a system with 256M RAM. 2. Simultaneously computing multiple matrix operations using relatively small matrices. Specific example: Computing 30 matrix expressions using 300 x 300 matrices on a system with 512 MB RAM. Workaround: If you have identified one or more matrix operations in your application that exhibit this behavior, you have multiple options to avoid crashing. 1. Serialize the matrix operations so that they are not consuming resources in parallel. 2. Replace affected matrix arithmetic functions using Basic Linear Algebra Subroutine (BLAS)functions found on the BLAS palette. 3. Structure your application so that these operations are not competing with other functions for system resources.

| 103315 Return |
Creating a circular link between an Xcontrol and a LVClass can crash LabVIEW. The circular load leads to VIs that are permanently broken and no matter what you do the run arrow will not become fixed. Workaround: Do not create a circular link from your XControl to your class. In other words, write your class completely and then write your XControl using the class. Do not put the XControl or any property/invoke node for the XControl into member VIs of the class.

Text on a VI can be mutated to appear as Unicode After building a project into an executable, various text for controls and indicators changes languages. It appears that the text was interpreted as Unicode. We have not been able to reproduce this in house to find a definite cause. Because of this we will leave this CAR open even though we have created code to recover from the corruption if it happens. Previously tracked as CAR 179683 Workaround: Upgrade the VI to LabVIEW 2011. In 2011 we put in code to only view text on VIs as unicode if the UseUnicode=True is in the LabVIEW .ini file. Previously this would only switch on the ability to change something to unicode. When the VI is upgraded to 2011 it should be saved and then saved for previous to return it to the original version. More details are in this KnowledgeBase

Changes to a library item's access scope sometimes do not update broken callers. Changing a library item's access scope sometimes does not update callers which are broken only because they were attempting to access an item which was out of scope to them. Workaround: Force recompile (ctrl+click on the run arrow) any VI which incorrectly believes that access scope forbids access to it's dependency. Changing the access scope to another value, then back to the desired value while the VI is open will also fix the issue.

Changing the order of controls or deleting controls in a type def cluster can change references When you create a reference for a control in a type defined cluster LabVIEW uses the cluster order to determine what control the reference is referring to. Say you have a type defined cluster with elements A, B, C and D with cluster order 1,2,3 and 4 respectively. On the block diagram of a VI you have control references to each of the controls. If you open the type def and delete control C the block diagram of the VI will only contain 3 references. Moreover, the reference that used to be for control C will now reference control D.
