I need help with a RSR232 driver for an embedded controller

Hi-
My controller currently communicates to a LCD screen via keywords and an RS232 connection to a PC (Hyperterminal). It recognizes certain words and will "reply". For example you can ask what temperature does the sensor read and it will print a number to the LCD.
I would like to do the same using Labview V7.1.
1. Do I need a specific driver or are generic RS232 drivers available?
2. Can I write my own driver and if so, how do I get started? Are there tutorials online somewhere?
Thanks-
Nora

LabVIEW uses a driver called VISA for serial communication. Open Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) and look at the software installed on your system. If NI-VISA is not listed, you need to install it from the drivers CD or you can download it. Click on the Support link a the top of the page.
There are shipping examples for serial communication. You can also use the Instrument I/O Assistant.

You don't need to install the older version, you only need the serial number from your original purchase. If you don't have them to hand, did you register? If so, they should be in your Adobe account. If not you really need to contact Adobe, though it isn't clear they will be able to do anything without some proof of purchase etc.

[solved]Need help with a bash script for MOC conky artwork.

I need some help with a bash script for displaying artwork from MOC.
Music folders have a file called 'front.jpg' in them, so I need to pull the current directory from MOCP and then display the 'front.jpg' file in conky.
mocp -Q %file
gives me the current file playing, but I need the directory (perhaps some way to use only everything after the last '/'?)
A point in the right direction would be appreciated.
thanks, d

You should also quote the variables and output in double quotes to make the code robust, e.g.
filename="$(mocp -Q %file)"
dirname="${filename%/*}"
cp "$dirname"/front.jpg ~/backup/art.jpg
Without the quotes, whitespace will break the code. Even if you don't expect whitespace in any of the paths, it's still good coding practice to include the quotes imo.
thanks for the tip.
here it is, anyhow:
#!/bin/bash
filename=$(mocp -Q %file)
dirname=${filename%/*}
cp ${dirname}/front.jpg ~/backup/art.jpg
then in conky:
$alignr${execi 30 ~/bin/artc}${image ~/backup/art.jpg -s 100x100 -p -3,60}
thanks for the help.

Can you please tell me where I can download a Windows 8.1 driver for SM Bus Controller on a HP Pavilion 11-h003sa x2 PC
It's the only device that Windows 8.1 can't find a driver for - I've tried to update the driver software in Device manager for it and it doesn't find anything.
Thanks in advance

Hi:
Try this Intel chipset driver...
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=20775&lang=eng
If the auto install file doesn't work, download and unzip the second file listed (zip file).
Go to the device manager and click on the smbus controller needing drivers, click on the driver tab. Click on Update Driver.
Select the Browse my computer for driver software option and browse to the driver folder that was created when you unzipped the file.
Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and see if the driver installs that way.
For the mouse pointer problem try reinstalling the touchpad drivers.

Need Help with External Hard drives and too much music

I am not terribly tech-savvy, and I need your help. I have a G5 PPC dual processor with an internal 250GB drive. I have two seagate firewire/USB2 external hard drives. One is 250GB and one is 350GB. I want to know how to use them to get my Mac to run faster and better.
My original hard drive is 7GB shy of being full. Almost half of this is my itunes library which is over 100GB. The older (250GB) hard drive has about 150GB of photos/videos.
My Mac is running slow as molasses and when I power up the external hard drives it slows down to what I recall my original Mac Plus ran like.
I use the G5 primarily to work with photos, illustrations and creating the occasional DVD with video and photos. the apps I use most often are Photoshop, Illustrator and Painter. I always listen to music while work.
I hope all of this information is helpful! Here is my question:
What is the best way for me to set up and use these external hard drives to return my G5 to its original blazing (to me) fast speed?
PPC G5 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I think you should look at adding two 500GB internal drives. I'd say Maxtor MaxLine Pro for cost, but they also run much warmer (43ºC even when nearly doing zilch) so I'd go with WD RE2 500GB for $40 ea. more.
dump whatever you don't need, trash anything that is hogging space and is just temp file or useless cache. Web browsers can leave behind a ton of small files eating up tens of MBs.
Use SuperDuper to backup/clone your drive.
Disk Warrior 4 to repair (after it gets to 15% free, or just forget for now).
A 250GB drive formats to 240GB and you have ~3% free it looks like.
For every data drive plan to have two backup drives.
Keep your boot drive to 40% used.
And your data drive to 60%.
Backups can go a little higher.
Drives are cheap and inexpensive, especially for the space and performance. And they have improved SATA over the years it has been out.
By doing a backup followed by erasing your drive, and then restoring it, using SuperDuper, which optimizes the organization, skips copying temp files that aren't needed, it also defragments your files. I would do backup daily to different sets that you "rotate." And before any OS update. And do the erase and restore probably every 2 months.
Make sure you keep one drive partition somewhere that is just your disk utility emergency boot drive that is not a copy of working system, used for doing repairs like running Disk Warrior and Disk Utility.
You may need to repair; backup; even erase and restore your external drives. Rather than spend on vendor made case, just pick up a good FireWire case either with drive, or bare (and add your own). I think it'd add 500GB FW drive though.
Why?
To begin backup of your current drive. To leave your other FW drives "as is" for now.
Then install a new internal 500GB drive as well so you now have a good current backup, and you have moved your data off 250GB to 500GB. If anything happens, you have one off line FW backup.
Then begin to clean up, organize, and get your FW drives working. It sure sounds like they have had some directory or file problems.
You can find a lot of Firewire and SATA drive choices over at OWC:

Hard Drive Crash - need help with choosing new drive and installation

My hard drive seems to have crashed. My computer froze, and when I tried to reboot, it got stuck at the startup screen. I started from the system CD, ran the disk repair utility, and it said it could not repair the disk. I ran Tech Tool Pro and it could not repair the disk. I tried to start up in Target disk mode while connected to my older G4 iMac (that I'm using now as my backup), and the disk would not mount. So I need some expert advice - I am assuming the hard drive is toast. I wish I could at least mount it in target disk mode to transfer files, but I haven't been able to do that. I was going to take it in for repair (or possibly buy a new computer), but after reading some of the posts here, I am thinking I could just replace the internal hard drive with a 3.5" SATA drive.
What I need to know is am I correct about this? And is this the right kind of drive for my iMac? Are there any specifications I need to be aware of when ordering a new drive? I downloaded the manual explaining how to replace the drive and it looks doable. I would appreciate any guidance as to choosing the new drive (specific brand names/models would be great), installing the drive, and tips for formatting, etc. Thanks in advance for your help!

Welcome to Discussions - any 3 1/2" SATA drive will be fine, go to [macsales.com] or [smalldog.com] or [newegg.com] and choose whichever drive fits your wallet. Most of them are reliable, I have heard of problems with Seagate and Hitachi, but there are always some failures with any brand. Make sure to get a good warranty.Instructions will come with the drive, but you can download them from [Apple|http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/imac> as well.

Need help with cd/dvd drive problem.

I have a MacBook (black) running OS 10.6.8. The internal cd/dvd drive no longer works. I put in a disk and it gets pushed back out after a few seconds.
I just bought a LG Ultra Slim Portable DVD Writer model GP 60NB50. The MacBook recognizes the LG drive for opening music and movies, and for burning photos to a disk.
I have been unable to use the LG drive as a start-up drive. I put Disk Warrior into the drive and restarted the computer holding down the “C” key. When the computer starts to launch there is a flash of a “?” on the screen then it loads from the hard disk. I also tried using the Apple start up disk that came with the computer but that also failed.
Any idea how I can get the LG drive to become a start-up drive when needed?
Thanks,
Orin

If your computer is a TouchSmart, and I am only guessing that it is, this document might help.

Hi i need help with getting my homework for school

im in a nine week class that ends tommorw and need help go\etting my program working properly these are the requirements ofr the assignments:
Modify the Inventory Program by adding a button to the GUI that allows the user to move
to the first item, the previous item, the next item, and the last item in the inventory. If the
first item is displayed and the user clicks on the Previous button, the last item should
display. If the last item is displayed and the user clicks on the Next button, the first item
should display.
· Add a company logo to the GUI using Java graphics classes.
Modify the Inventory Program to include an Add button, a Delete button, and a Modifybutton on the GUI. These buttons should allow the user to perform the corresponding actions on the item name, the number of units in stock, and the price of each unit. An item added to the inventory should have an item number one more than the previous last item. Add a Save button to the GUI that saves the inventory to a C:\data\inventory.dat file. Use exception handling to create the directory and file if necessary. Add a search button to the GUI that allows the user to search for an item in the inventory by the product name. If the product is not found, the GUI should display an appropriate message. If the product is found, the GUI should display that products information in the GUI. Post final .class and .java files as an attachment.

Need help with output type EDI for ERS

All,
I want to be able to run and ERS settlement and have the invoices created sent via EDI/XML to the supplier.   I have several questions on the set up.
1) I have output type ERS6 which is defined as ERS EDI. I assume because it does not start with Z* this is SAP standard, so I shouldn't have to modify any of this.
2) I've added my supplier to this output type.
3) I assume I need to create a partner profile for this supplier? If so can someone tell me the message type to use?
Is there any set up I'm missing in this process?   I've executed ERS but do not get an idoc and I'm fairly certain it's because I haven't done the partner profile set-up.
Thanks for your help.
Sandra

Hi,
You don't have to modify thise setup unless you have any customized requirement.
You are missing partner profile setup.Carry out the setup and run MRRL tcode to create the idocs
Enter the following values using tcode WE20.
Field                                       Value
Message type                         GSVERF
Partner type                             LI (vendor)
Partner function                        LF (vendor)
Port                                         SUBSYSTEM ( Port to your middleware)
Output mode                            such as Collect IDocs
Basic type                                GSVERF01

Need help with Photoshop and "Licensing for this product has stopped working" message. Adobe fix isn't working.

I am still using CS3. A while back I received an error: "Licensing for this product has stopped working" for my CS3 programs. I used the recovery program suggested by Adobe and was able to get Illustrator, Flash and Dreamweaver to work, but I still can't open Photoshop or In Design. I went back to the Adobe site and did every other trick they suggested to fix the error, but nothing has worked.
I then tried to uninstall photoshop from my CS3 suite (so I could reinstall) but got a JavaScript Alert: "Critical errors were found in set up. Please see set up log for file details." Seeing as I am not the best with the behind the scenes technical stuff, I have no idea what this means or where the set up log even is. Any help anyone can provide?
I have had CS3 installed on my computer for over a year. I started having problems about 4 months ago.

I am having similar problem. Can't open any of CS3 programs after trying to download Dreamweaver Trial, which wouldn't work because "couldn't remove DLM extention" error message. So now I can not run Illustrator, Photoshop, or even Adobe Reader. These are properly licensed for about a year. I get "License for product has stopped working". Have 2 pending cases open with Adobe support (one for Dreamweaver trial, one for license problem) since 8/3 with NO ANSWERS - It says answers within 1-3 business days. Was on phone support hold today for over 3 hours before line went dead with no help. What is up with adobe support? Can anyone help?

Need help with date range searches for Table Sources in SES

Hi all,
I need help, please. I am trying to satisfy a Level 1 client requirement for the ability to search for records in crawled table sources by a date and/or date range. I have performed the following steps, and did not get accurate results from Advanced searching for date. Please help me understand what I am doing wrong, and/or if there is a way to define a date search attribute without creating a LOV for a date column. (My tables have 500,00 rows.)
I am using SES 10.1.8.3 on Windows 32.
My Oracle 10g Spatial Table is called REPORTS and this table has the following columns:
TRACKNUM Varchar2
TITLE Varchar2
SUMMARY CLOB
SYMBOLCODE Varchar2
Timestamp Date
OBSDATE Date
GEOM SDO_GEOMETRY
I set up the REPORTS table source in SES, using TRACKNUM as the Primary Key (unique and not null), and SUMMARY as the CONTENT Column. In the Table Column Mappings I defined TITLE as String and TITLE.
Under Global Settings > Search Attributes I defined a new Search Attribute (type Date) called DATE OCCURRED (DD-MON-YY).
Went back to REPORTS source previously defined and added a new Table Column Mapping - mapping OBSDATE to the newly defined DATE OCCURRED (DD-MON-YY) search attribute.
I then modified the Schedule for the REPORTS source Crawler Policy to “Process All Documents”.
Schedule crawls and indexes entire REPORTS table.
In SES Advanced Search page, I enter my search keyword, select Specific Source Group as REPORTS, select All Match, and used the pick list to select the DATE OCCURRED (DD-MON-YY) Attribute Name, operator of Greater than equal, and entered the Value 01-JAN-07. Then the second attribute name of DATE_OCCURRED (DD-MON-YY), less than equals, 10-JAN-07.
Search results gave me 38,000 documents, and the first 25 I looked at had dates NOT within the 01-JAN-07 / 10-JAN-07 range. (e.g. OBSDATE= 10-MAR-07, 22-SEP-07, 02-FEB-08, etc.)
And, none of the results I opened had ANY dates within the SUMMARY CLOB…in case that’s what was being found in the search.
Can someone help me figure out how to allow my client to search for specific dated records in a db table using a single column for the date? This is a major requirement and they are anxiously awaiting my solution.
Thanks very much, in advance….

raford,
Thanks very much for your reply. However, from what I've read in the SES Admin Document is that (I think) the date format DD/MM/YYYY pertains only to searches on "file system" sources (e.g. Word, Excel, Powerpoint, PDF, etc.). We have 3 file system sources among our 25 total sources. The remaining 22 sources are all TABLE or DATABASE sources. The DBA here has done a great job getting the data standardized using the typical/default Oracle DATE type format in our TABLE sources (DD-MON-YY). Our tables have anywhere from 1500 rows to 2 million rows.
I tested your theory that the dates we are entering are being changed to Strings behind the scenes and on the Advanced Page, searched for results using OBSDATE equals 01/02/2007 in an attempt to find data that I know for certain to be in the mapped OBSDATE table column as 01-FEB-07. My result set contained data that had an OBSDATE of 03-MAR-07 and none containing 01-FEB-07.
Here is the big issue...in order for my client to fulfill his primary mission, one of the top 5 requirements is that he/she be able to find specific table rows that are contain a specific date or range of dates.
thanks very much!
