cjbassman Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I have a problem where the LED symbols are invisible. Even if create new LEDS and put them on a blank page they cannot be seen. I know they are there because I can edit them. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzeoTech Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 It means one of two things: 1) you are running Express which doesn't support LEDs. Go to help-about to see what version you are running. 2) the activeX controls that drive the LEDs aren't properly registered. The easiest way to register them is to reinstall ensuring you are an admin at the time. If that doesn't work, we can manual register them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjbassman Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 I'm running developer so I should have everything. I've now solved it. It seems that when I installed a test copy of 5.90.6 parts of older versions stopped working. I have successfully kept working copies of 5.86 and 5.87a in separate folders and run different versions to keep compatibility with older versions of DAQ installed around the world. It's easier to just send an update of the application rather than having to get them to install the latest version of DAQ. In the past this has been OK but the install of 5.90.6 made some thing disappear. I've now uninstalled and re-installed 5.87a (the version I have most applications running under) and everything is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzeoTech Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Yeah, 5.90 is built under a different compiler and has different dependencies. I'm surprised it affected the activex controls though, but am glad you got it working. Does 5.90 still run after you reinstalled 5.87a? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjbassman Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 It still seems to. I've not done any real work with it, but I've run up jobs I've created and they seem OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjbassman Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 I do still seem to have problems with symbols. I've uninstalled (deleted) all versions of DAQ and re-installed version 5.87a but LEDs, bar graphs are still invisible. I'm running Windows 8.1 if that makes a difference.

AzeoTech Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 OK, so you aren't running Express, right? To manually register the controls, go to a windows command prompt (Start - Run: cmd), change to your DAQFactory directory ( "cd\daqfactory" most likely), then type this, pressing return after each line: regsvr32 iProfessionalLibrary.ocx regsvr32 isAnalogLibrary.ocx regsvr32 isDigitalLibrary.ocx You may have to run the command prompt as an administrator.
