Envelope Detection - Band specification question

Hello,
I'm using the Envelope Detection vi from the Sound and Vibration Meas Suite but I'm having trouble determining values for the Band Specification.
I understand that one value is the center freq and the other specifies the span on either side of this center freq.
The waveform I'm feeding to this function has a resolution of 5000 S/s so I assumed my span can't exceed the max frequency content of my waveform.
If I enter a center freq of greater than 2500Hz I get an error stating that the value is invalid.  This makes sense.
However, with a center freq of 2500Hz my span can only be as high as 1250Hz. If I enter 1251Hz or higher I get the following error:
Error -20003 occurred at SoundVib_Resampling.lvlibAT Single Stage Decimation with IC.vi in
SoundVib_Resampling.lvliba_Decimation with CIC and Compensation Filter.vi:13 in
SoundVib_FaultAnalysis.lvliba_Shift and Low Pass Filter (1 Channel).vi:3 in
SoundVib_FaultAnalysis.lvlibAT Envelope Detection (Waveform Output, 1 Channel).vi:1 in
VibrationAnalysis_2.vi
Possible reason(s):
Analysis:  The number of samples must be > 0.
Can someone explain to me what these band specification values are for and what their limits are?
Thank you.

You are aware, that the nyquist theorem states that the highest bandwidth you can measure is 1/2 of the sampling frequency? So the 2.5 kHz limit has nothing to do with the span. And also a span of 1.25 kHz (assuming it is in both directions) is the 2.5 kHz limit.
But I never worked much in this domain, so I'm of no further help.

  • Why is the outcome of the envelope detection vi different when run within a for loop

    Given that signal 1 and signal 2 are identical what could cause  the outputs at appended array and appended array 2 to be different. The output at appended array 2 comes out incorrectly. Given only one band specification the subvi works in the loop. With more than 1 band specification the output from the loop is not correct.

    Appended Array 1 is the output of two seperate dataspaces (prealocated clones)
    Appended array 2 is two output from the same dataspace called twice.
    I bet dollars to doughtnuts there is an IIR filter in that vi that assumes (correctly, because we know nothing about the signal) a zero magnitude initial value (which is almost never the actual case) and has a reset implied. this introduces an initial transient in the filtered signal that is different in the two loop iterations since the filter has been "Pre-settled" in the second iteration.
    [I has a nightmare of a time finding that when using the Mod Toolkit to generate bursts of pi/4-QPSK until I took I/Q to polar and saw the transient on Rho  - the work around was to just generate the burst twice once, to settle the filter and once to get a useful signal throwing out the first burst]
    Wow, that hurt my brain.  But I do understand what you were talking about.

  • Specific question on seek

    Ok here is a specific question unlike my previous one.
    If i store records with a fixed record length something like :
    RandomAccessFile file = new RandomAccessFile("example.txt","rw");
               long pos = inputLong("Type the record number for saving the data:");I am using the "pos" to give my record a location. Thus searching for a record i would use something like
    file.seek(50*pos);My question is, here to locate a record i must know its pos number before hand, is it possible to locate a record with letters instead of a number?

    I believe by pos he means "index" or "recordnumber" (i.e. each "record" is 50 bytes long, fixed-width and pos is really which of these records/items he wishes to retrieve).
    As far as locating them with letters, that depends. If you simply wish to find a record that contains specific letters, then you will have to read each record and then check if it contains those letters. If, on the other hand, each record has a "key" (i.e. the first two letters of each record must be unique) then you can read through the entire file when you initially access it and create a hashmap containing these keys and there "position" or "index". Then, when the user says give me AZ, you simply retrieve the "index" from the hashmap and read the corresponding record.
    Edit: That example I gave you in your ":( Help" thread does exactly this second option.

  • Very specific question about iOS 7 and podcasts

    I have a very specific question regarding the playback of podasts under iOS 7.
    Right now, I've still got iOS 5.1.1 (iPhone 4S).
    What I would like to have is a way to play an episode from a podcast that I have not yet finished, and when I double-click the ear-bud's middle button, then I would like to jump (skip) to the episode in the list, even if that episode is from a different podcast.
    Right now, under iOS 5.1.1, I achieved that by creating a smart playlist in iTunes that collects all the episodes from all podcasts with a play count == 0.
    This smart playlist is mirrored to the iPhone.
    It works very well.
    It seems to me that something like that is not possible under iOS 6, so I skipped that.
    My question now is whether I can acheive this under iOS 7.
    I would be most grateful if some kind soul could shed some light on that for me.
    Best,
    Gabriel.

    Hi Larry,
    Thanks very much for posting a reply.
    I do absolutely intend to print a test copy first - but thanks to your advice at least know the spine is going to be ok!
    I didn't realize that method would give me a nice landscape image of the unbound cover - I'd mistakenly remembered that it gave only one page at a time for front and back.
    Thanks for helping out.
    Best,

  • Specific Questions Multiple Routers *HELP*

    I have a few specific questions regarding multiple routers in one home.
    1. Would it be possible to have (2) verizon supplied routers such as Actiontecs working in one home over Coax? to be more specific i would like one router in one room of the house connected to coax and providing hardwired/wireless. and another of the same type in a different room doing the same.
    an installer told me something to the effect that there would be wireless interference between the two. my next question is if I am able to have two routers connected over coax. could I log in to one and Set Wireless to OFF? thus eliminating wireless interference? if not what would be the issue? could i use a non-verizon supplied router (which i understand there is no support for) ? could i use a Wired router?
    there is no wireless coverage issue here. simply personal preference. i need the ability to hardwire systems without running cable around the house ie:cat5 from router to another room.no wireless bridges or other configurations.
    these routers are excellent in features and performance and having a second would be nice.
    my last resort option would be to connect the router to my GE smartconnection center that i have in my home. coax to router router to cat5e thus braodcast throughout the house depending where i choose. this is my last resort since it is a steel enclosure and would hinder wireless performance.

    Check out this website. It has all the different network configurations, along with the pro's and con's of each set up.
    http://www.dslreports.com/faq/verizonfios/3.0_Networking
    You can also set up the wireless to adhoc mode, which will allow you to connect the second router to the first wirelessly and extend your network without running cable to the other end of the house.

  • PSC 500 won't print yellow (a few specific questions)

    I have tried installing a brand new cartridge, cleaning the connections, etc.  The most common suggestion I've found is that I have two bad or "old" cartridges (manufactured in Puerto Rico, April 2007).  Before I go buy another costly cartridge, I have a few questions:
    1) I colored an entire sheet of paper yellow in Word, then printed it.  The printer just spat it out without even pretending to print anything on it.  Does this in itself suggest either a printer or cartridge problem?
    2) I recently installed a new black cartridge (a remanufactured or refilled one from simplyink.com--yes, I know that's not recommended), and I'm sure I haven't tried to print anything in color since then (until today).  Could an issue with the black cartridge possibly affect the color cartridge?
    3) Regrettably, I can't say for CERTAIN that I've printed in color with the current cartridge; I can't remember when I installed it, but I'm ALMOST sure that I have.  This is another reason that I suspect something internal happened and it's not just the cartridge.  I hope I'm wrong, or that there's a fix that doesn't involve taking the old beast into a repair shop.
    Any input would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

    Okay, trying to figure out why no one will even look at this...I read the first sticky, so in case this helps in the etiquette department: I have searched, and haven't found answers to these specific questions.  My operating system is Vista, and my printer is connected via serial port.  I think I have done everything that's suggested.  Please, can anyone give me a hand here?

  • Can you link specific questions to list variables where it pops up choices depending on the question?

    If i am asking a specific question for example:
    Alpha Sector, then if Alpha Sector was selected then you must list what POSITION on ALPHA work is being performed.
    Alpha = Alpha Position 1
                Alpha Position 2
                Alpha Position 3
                Alpha Position 4
                Alpha Position 5 , then depending on which of these are selected, it also has another question as well. What will be the FREQUENCY on that SPECIFIC POSITION.
    Say that Alpha was SELECTED, then work is being performed on ALPHA Position 1, then another popup here should allow another question to be answered: What is the FREQUENCY for ALPHA Position 1 ? then once this was asked if Alpha Position 2 was also SELECTED, then go through the same above ROUTINE. 
    Alpha = Alpha Position 2 was also selected, then another popup here should allow another question to be answered: What is the FREQUENCY for ALPHA Position 2 ? and SO ON.
    How is this accomplished? Would i have to create new pages then link to them or what?
    Please help, feel free to call or email me direct.

    Thanks for your suggestions, Magnus, you really have had a good think for me - I appreciate that!
    What I am doing is report writing in which 90% of the report is the same for everyone. Except the cover page with Name and Address details, and Report title; the initial section which is the same for everyone except for specifics such as amount to invest, reason for investment, term to invest over, things like that.
    The end of the report is the recommendations section which is where I use freetext to create a bespoke solution - this cannot be automated.
    Just automating the cover page and the intro section save me huge amounts of time which I can then use on research and fund analysis, leaving the principles of investment section pretty much the same for everyone, as here I'm describing the principle and theory.
    After I created this Report Template my average report creation time went down from about 3 to 4 hours, to about 45 minutes. I guess the automation itself doesn't save as much time as the templating does, but it allows me to concentrate on the important bit and not worry if I have left something out - or in - that changes the overall thrust of the report.
    I cannot load Lotus WorpPro on Parallels, nor on Virtual PC, so the lack of automation really is a pain here. I see it as a weakness of Apple products for business, as I am sure Microsoft do which is why they have dropped VBA support for Office 2008.
    I have got NeoOffice as well as OpenOffice for Mac on my system, but really they aren't atable enough to use, and the formatting is pretty flaky. It certainly isn't completely consistent with Office itself.
    So, I am left with the conclusion that progress only means a reduction in features!
    But maybe I'm missing something?

  • Specific questions about a RAM upgrade to 4GB on my MBP

    I have a MBP model MA895LL/A. Currently populated with the original memory (2GB)
    Recent clean install of Snow Leopard, with all current updates.
    Specific questions:
    What memory does Apple use in their laptops? Does it really matter if you get the same manufacturer for complete compatibility?
    Do timings matter? Will faster timing improve performance slightly, or is it a waste of money to go for the faster stuff on my specific model (Intel Core 2 Duo T7500)
    Best to populate with 2 sticks X 2?
    Finally, how about manufacturers? Anyone have any positive experiences with specific manufacturers, or, horror stories they can share?
    I guess I just want to buy the best memory for my MBP. I build my own PCs, but I'm not sure if the Mac is a little more picky, RAM wise. Cost isn't really a factor. I'm willing to spend a little more, and buy the right stuff, and only do it once, without the hassle of sending it back, etc.
    Any advice would be great. I know its possible this question has been answered many times before. I guess I don't know where to look...

    Uh, yes, this is asked just about every day, like here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2154109&tstart=0
    Using the "Search Category" box in the upper right works.
    To answer your questions, since you likely have the 2 slots filled with 1GB DIMMs, you need to get a pair of 2GB to max the RAM. I guess you could use 1 OEM stick and one 2GB stick for 3GB total, but I would just go for 4GB. If you are under warranty, save the original RAM, as Apple seems to dislike seeing any 3rd party RAM no matter what. Put the OEM RAM back in if you need warranty work.
    I've seen several brands OEM, a lot of Hynix and Samsung, but it is probably all well tested to Apple spec. Otherwise, brands mean nothing, but see the above linked thread. I prefer to go with the exact spec'd RAM myself. I believe "faster" RAM does not run any faster. Vendors mentioned in the linked thread all have selector aids to find the exact RAM for your model.

  • Dual-band wireless question

    Hi again: I am new to this dual-band wireless stuff in TC having just replaced my AE with a new TC. I have a few questions regarding wireless setup.
    1. When selecting the "Radio Mode" you are presented with options like "802.11a/n - 802.11b/g". Does this setting mean that the primary wireless will be a/n wile the guest wireless will be restricted to b/g ?
    2. If you Option-click on the Radio-Mode pick list you can select multiple other settings. On of which is 802.11n (5 ghz) - 802.11a/b. Give question 1 does this restrict the main wireless to 5 ghz n only? (I highly doubt this as I can still connect to the "n network" with my iphone which only supports b/g.)
    3. Under "Wireless Options" you can select a "5 ghz" network. Is this different than the option detailed in Question 2?
    4. Finally, where can I find a manual for TC ?
    Thanks for the help, Chris.

    So is my assumption that the hyphen in the selection is the differentiation between the two networks?
    Also, when I activate the "5 ghz" setting under options I actually see three networks, "Network1 (5 Ghz), Network1, and Network2 in my naming system. Does this mean that Network1 (5 Ghz) in the N only while Network1 is a standard N (with backwards compatibility to b/g)? I think this is the case as my iPhone does connect to Network1 while Network1 (5 Ghz) is not detected.
    Thanks for the help, Chris.

  • How to do envelope detection using ni 7954

    Hi,
    I want to impliment an envelope detector in ni7954.  Iam using 5751 adapter module with 7954. Can someone suggest me a good article to refer or a nice explanation on how to impliment the same.

    Hi Bassem,
    for delta detection in your data source there are three possibilities:
    1. the source data has some identifier when it has been modified and deleted data is marked an not physically deleted
    In this case you just filter the data that has been changed in your owb mappings.
    2. you use some change data capture technologies
    You have to install this manually when using owb 11.1 or older versions (google for oracle and cdc). owb 11R2 brings built in support for change data capture.
    3. you get all the data and identify the delta manually
    In the owb mapping you left outer join the data from your source with the existing data in your target and filter for the data that is new or has been modified. In a second step you identify the deleted data by selecting the data in your target minus the data from your source.
    Which approach is the best depends on your specific system architecture.
    Regards,
    Carsten.

  • TIFF Format Specification Question

    This isn't a Java-specific quesiton, but I was hoping someone here would be able to help as I have tried numerous other avenues already.
    I�m working with (TIFF) images that have multiple layers, and each layer can have different min/max values. I want to store these min/max values for each layer in the .tiff file, in the SMinSampleValue and SMaxSampleValue tags. So if I have 3 layers I need to write 3 mins and 3 maxes down.
    The documentation for SMinSampleValue/SMaxSampleValue says:
    �Note that a value should be given for each data sample. That is, if the image has 3 SamplesPerPixel, 3 values must be specified.�
    However when I use libtiff (haven't tried this in Java yet but it would be similar I guess):
    TIFFSetField( newTIFF, TIFFTAG_SMINSAMPLEVALUE, min1, min2, min3 );
    OR
    ===
    TIFFSetField( newTIFF, TIFFTAG_SMINSAMPLEVALUE, min1);
    What gets written is min1 three times, so if min1 is 40, then 40 40 40 is written, due to a variable "count", I don�t understand where the �count� for the tags gets set, I shall look into that further.
    But my main question is how do I write multiple different values for SMinSampleValue and SMaxSampleValue using tifflib? How do other TIFF readers/writers do this (format question), since I want to be compatible with them.
    Thanks,
    HappyDeveloper

    Hi,
    I am seeing the similar post in SDN and some replies state the following. Have a look into this
    Often this error occurs because the TIFF file you have has been saved with some form of compression. You need to open in a picture edit program and save as TIFF making sure options are set so there is no compression.

  • Specific Question Reporting in LMS

    Hi I've been using Captivate for a few months, and I've recently gotten a module together and am hosting it on SCORM cloud.  My module contains some quiz slides, however I'm finding the reporting I'm getting back a bit odd, I'm
    sure it's user error but I'm unclear what I'm doing wrong…I'm getting the info about who is taken the quiz and how long they've taken etc, but what I need to know is the specific answers they have given, i.e. have they answered A B C or D.
    I've been making the quiz slides myself with click boxes and actions, and including them in quiz reporting, but I'm unclear how I can then get each question and answer I've created to show up in the SCORM reporting…for example, most of the specific reporting looks like this:
    2015-02-27T15:34:20.387
    [USER} correctly answered 'Question 6888' with response '1'
    I'd like to be able to specify the question number myself (not sure where the 6888 is coming from) and make it so the response was "A" or any of the other selections.  Is this possible?
    Hopefully this is clear enough, I'm pretty new to the game.  Thanks for any help in advance!!

    I should add to the above that I'm making my own quiz slides.  Still looking for an answer to this problem, so far what I've been doing as a workaround is putting the result of the question in the Interaction ID...ie "Question1DINCORRECT"  or "QUESTION 2ACORRECT", that way I can at least see what they answered.  When I was looking at the SCORM data I saw this:
    "result": {
      "success": true,
      "response": "1"
    This is where the LMS is getting the data, but I have no idea how to change it so the reporting could say User X incorrectly answered Question 1 with response D...hopefully this makes sense.  Any help greatly appreciated!!

  • Cisco MSE not detect the specific place

    Hi all,
    I have a Cisco MSE 7.6.100 with Cisco PI 1.4 and Virtual controller 7.4.121 and 3 APs (3600,3600 and 1600) to make the MSE to detect the location in accurate but I found that when I moved from Area to another Area (each area is covered by AP) the wireless client not associated on the New AP that is on the new Area which reflect on the accuracy of the Location detection.
    this scenario is made to test MSE-CMX feature.
    please advice to solve this problem.

    If you have issues you handover you need to make sure that the overlapping between the channels is proper and the 50 % overlapping is there.
    When designing a WLAN, overlapping RF cell coverage is necessary to provide for seamless roaming. However, the overlapping coverage cells should not have overlapping frequency space. In the United States there are only three channels (1, 6 and 11) that do not share frequency space. RF is a half-duplex medium that allows for the transmission of only a single radio on any frequency channel, therefore when three or more 2.4 GHz APs are needed to cover an enterprise facility, only the non-overlapping channels of one, six and eleven should be used.
    802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi radios can transmit in the 2.4 GHz band with a total of fourteen available channels. In the US only eleven of those channels are legally available and only 13 are available in Europe.
    within the 2.4 GHz band, only three channels have non-overlapping frequency space: channels one, six and eleven.

  • Specific questions before installing Bootcamp

    My plan is the install Bootcamp first, and then VM Fusion,
    so that I can do both a reboot into Windows and have
    a virtual machine, depending on my needs.
    Questions:
    1. Do I only need the partition size for Windows XP to be
    large enough for the operating system and not for any
    Windows specific programs or files?
    2. Bootcamp instructions state that with NTFS file system,
    that files created on Mac cannot be saved in Windows
    partition. Does that also mean that files created by
    Windows and saved in the NTFS partition cannot be
    opened by Mac? Is that an argument to make the Windows
    partition FAT32 and only use it for the operating system?
    3. I have a 1 GB hard drive. I plan to run as much as possible
    within Mac, but will be forced to run certain items in Windows
    (Panasonic KV-S2026 scanner only has Windows drivers,
    QuickBooks 2008, etc). I won't be running games. How would
    you divide your hard drive and why?
    Thanks.

    The biggest problem is often that people don't estimate how much disk space they will need for Windows. Double what you think you need.
    If you don't think Windows will need storage to save programs and files, where do you think they will go?
    Yes files and programs are stored on Windows.
    Fusion will also add support files and drivers to Windows. Maybe you don't need to even use BootCamp and just get by with Fusion. Or Parallels.
    NTFS is read-only from OS X unless you use 3rd party drivers, then you can write to NTFS.
    MacFUSE 3G is one, Paragon-Software sells a program. It is no different than installing any scanner or printer driver, so it isn't a big deal. Installing Fusion, and Windows, those take more care and knowledge.
    Vista requires NTFS. With XP you can still use FAT.
    #3: you don't have a 1GB hard drive. 500GB? 1TB? Same with memory, everything is in "GB" now, and not "MB."
    In your previous "solved" thread about XP Pro 64-bit, you went over most of this already. If you want to use 4GB fully, then Vista 64-bit. However, Apple still doesn't include the 64-bit drivers for the iMac, for those you need to grab them off the web.
