Overview



This document contains the NI Spectral Measurements 2.7 known issues that were discovered before and since the release of NI Spectral Measurements 2.7. Not every issue known to NI appears on this list; it is intended to show the most severe and common issues that can be encountered.

Each issue appears as a row in the table and includes the following fields:

  • Issue ID - The number in at the top of each of the cells in the first column. When you report an issue to NI, you may be given this ID, you can also find IDs posted by NI on the discussion forums or in Knowledge Base articles.  "N/A" indicates that there is no ID assigned to the issue.
  • Issue Title (in italics) - Describes the issue in one sentence or less.
  • Problem Description - A few sentences which describe the problem in further detail. The brief description given does not necessarily describe the problem in full detail, and it is expected that you may want more information on an issue. If you would like more information on an issue, contact NI and reference the ID number given in the document.
  • Workaround - Possible ways to work around the problem. The workarounds that appear in the document are not always tested by NI and are not guaranteed to resolve the issue. If a workaround refers you to the NI KnowledgeBase, visit www.ni.com/kb/ and enter the KnowledgeBase number in the search field to locate the specific document.
  • Reported Version - The earliest version of NI-RFSG in which the issue was reported. If you discover the issue appears in an earlier version of NI-RFSG than is reported in this field, report the discrepancy to NI to have the field updated.
  • Resolved Version - Version in which the issue was resolved or was no longer applicable. "N/A" indicates that the issue has not been resolved.
  • Date Added - The date the issue was added to the document (not the reported date).

On LabVIEW 2010, the SMT Basic Zoom Power Spectrum (Complex Input) VI slows down indefinitely

When using a small dt, such as 100 ps, if span is set to 1 on LabVIEW 2010, the SMT Basic Zoom Power Spectrum (Complex Input) VI slows down indefinitely. For example, if dt is set to 1 microsecond and span is set to 1, execution takes 20 seconds. The VI runs faster when dt is set to 100 nanoseconds or 1 nanosecond.

Workaround: N/A

Need to relink deprecated VIs/subVIs for which the path has changed

If an application built with NI Spectral Measurements Toolkit 2.5.1 or earlier uses deprecated VIs or subVIs from previous versions of the NI Spectral Measurements Toolkit, and you upgrade to NI Spectral Measurements Toolkit 2.6, the application may not find the deprecated VIs/subVIs after you upgrade to NI Spectral Measurements Toolit 2.6, even though the VIs are present on the disk.

Workaround: Manually relink the deprecated VIs/subVIs for which the paths have changed.

Upgrading Spectral Measurements Toolkit from a previous installation

Upgrading to Spectral Measurements Toolkit 2.5.1 for LabVIEW from a previous version may lead to the installation of the Spectral Measurement Toolkit files to versions of LabVIEW that are not present on the system, in addition to versions of LabVIEW present on the system. This happens only if any of the following standard-specific toolkits are installed on the system:
  • NI GPS Simulation Toolkit for LabVIEW
  • NI WLAN Measurement Suite
  • NI Measurement Suite for Fixed WiMAX
  • NI Measurement Suite for Mobile WiMAX
Workaround: Uninstall the standard-specific toolkits before upgrading to the latest version of NI Spectral Measurements Toolkit for LabVIEW. Install the standard-specific toolkits after upgrading to NI Spectral Measurements Toolkit 2.5.1.

Reported Version: 2.6  Resolved Version: N/A  Added: 1/17/2011
