Change UILabel text of custom UIView doesn't work

I have a custom UIView which was build with xib that have a file owner called CustomModuleUIView which contains labels and buttons . I have called this custom view in my Rootviewcontroller and I succeeded to display it using initWithCoder method. The problem is that I can't change the default text of UILabel neither from customMouleUIView nor from the root ViewController. I found example that tells me to do custom initialisation in in initWithCoder but it doesn't work for me and nothing changes and without any error it displays the default text.

This is my custom UIView xib enter image description here

This is my root view controller enter image description here

This is my code oh custom UIView .h

 #import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface ModuleCustomUIView : UIView

-(void) setup;
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIImageView *_moduleIcon;
@property (retain, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *_moduleName;
- (IBAction)openDemo:(id)sender;
- (IBAction)close:(id)sender;
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIImageView *_moduleImage;
@property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *_positionLabel;

@end

code of .m , i use setup method to init my UIView because I couldn't call 

[[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:xib owner:self options:nil] ;

inside initWithCoder that causes infinite loop .

-(id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)aDecoder
{
    self = [super initWithCoder:aDecoder];
    if(self)
    {
    }
    return self;
}

-(void) setup
{
    NSString *xib= @"CustomUIView";
    NSArray *array=[[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:xib owner:self options:nil] ;
    UIView *view =[array objectAtIndex:0];
    //code that doesn't work
    [_positionLabel setText:@"hello world"];
    //
    [self addSubview:view];
}

this is my root view controller .h

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];
    [_moduleCustomView setup];
    [self.view addSubview:_moduleCustomView];
    //code doesn't work 
    [_moduleCustomView setText:@"hello world"];
}

even in the did load I can't change the text

I have found my mistake , it's about file owner , i have change it in the inspector but by selecting the uiview and not te file's owner , i change NSObject to my class name and reconnect the label .

I guess the Files Owner attribute should be your 'root viewcontroller'.
