LabVIEW DSC: How to get alarm status from the area?

Colleagues,
I have, lets say, 50 Shared Variables where alarming enabled. Some of these variables assigned to area, so I can get status of the entire area or acknowledge an entire area of alarms (prior to version 8.x there was groups of the tags).
Now I would like to get alarm status from the entire area. How can I do it?
In version 6 I was able to wire tag group to Get Alarm Summary Status. Now, in version 8, Alarm Status.vi can be wired to the array of the variables, but not to area. Is it possible to get all variables from the area?
regards,
Andrey.

I am not sure if I should be posting my problem under this particular topic. I am having trouble understanding acknowledge alarm vi and what this vi is supposed to do is not clear to me yet.
I have around 300 shared variables in my project and I have created a particular vi just to view the alarms that may pop up during runs. I created a main menu and this alarm vi can be accessed upon a button click in the main menu. Users get alarm alert based on sound configuration. Then he can navigate to the alarm vi and acknowledge the alarm. The alarm vi only contains alarm and event display found under DSC module.
The problem is everytime I click the alarm button in the main menu, it takes around 2 minutes for the alarm vi to update which is very annoying and unsatisfactory in the middle of run. I am not sure why it happens and I haven't got any response from support yet. These shared variables are managed under 10 different library files that are set up based on different loops of the process (flow, pressure and so on).
Then I looked into three alarm examples that ship with DSC module. None of these examples use acknowledge alarm vi. I implemented another vi similar to alarm demo vi in that example - containing multicolumn listbox. I created acknowledge event containing acknowledge button and used the acknowledge alarm vi under this event. Read vi alarm is under timeout event.
When I click the acknowledge button as soon as I see the alarm in multicolumn listbox, nothing happens - the color of font does not get changed to purple neither any alarms get acknowledged. I tried to aknowledge alarm by variable name or alarms or alarm area, it does not give me anything. What is this acknowledge alarm supposed to do? I tried to find examples everywhere in the web that uses this particular vi and haven't found one yet.

I am using the window xp and firefox 6. I see many videos on youtube. How I get that videos from the catch folder and where is it?

I am using the window xp and firefox 6.
I watch the youtube videos online.
How I get that video from the catch folder and where that catch folder are situated in the window xp.

''How can I view or retrieve a video from Firefox's cache''
To actually view/retrieve the file from the cache and its web address you can use
the "Cache Viewer" extension 32.8KB
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/cacheviewer/
* http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox.htm#cacheviewer
For you to be able to view the cached file you would have had to have watched the entire file.
The latest version of the extension is 0.7b available in all versions you would have to override compatibility by any of these methods
* checking or pick up one of the xpi versions in the reader comments for Firefox 6.0
* extensions.checkCompatibility.6.0 set to False
*: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Extensions.checkCompatibility
* or with an extension "Add-on Compatibility Reporter" (84.0 KB) seems preferred in this group
*:https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/
There are also extensions such as Video downloader 132.8 KB

Restored my 4S. How to get pictures back from the cloud?

Background: I had a 3GS and on launchday of the 4S I picked one up. A white 32GB on AT&T to be exact.
I had been having some issues with the battery, so today I figured I'd try and start fresh. Well, I backed up everything on the cloud, and I also backed up everything onto the computer in iTunes when I did the restore.
I've got my music back. Cool.
I've got my apps back. Great.
I can't seem to figure out how to get my photos from the camera roll back. Nor do I know how or if it is even possible to get the photos and my old text messages back on this new restore. Also, none of my mail is coming back either.
I can see my most recent backup in the iphone settings under iCloud. And I can also see my most recent computer backup on the computer. But I'm not sure what I need to do.
Any help would be great. Thanks.

OK - understood.
There are a couple of ways of going about this. First, my recommended method:
Restore from a backup (so your photos, SMS etc are on the phone
Connect to iTunes
Set the phone to sync photos to a relevant app on your desktop (what app depends whether you're Windows or Mac) - this gets your pics onto the desktop and safe.
If you want to save SMS, use PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Windows) or similar to copy them off the phone
Restore the phone as a new device
Get the photos back the way you got music etc back - via iTunes sync
The second method entails using one of the utuilities around the place that can extract from the backup - I have no experience with them, so I don't know how well they work. That's why I go for the first method - simpler, more robust.
By the way, I came across this other method for SMS:

How to get multiple values from the list

I've a list of an item which I queried it from the database. I also created a button that will takes a selected items from the list when it was clicked. I used javabean to get the data from database.
<%     // clicked on Select District Button
Vector vselectedDistrict = new Vector();
Vector vdistrictID = new Vector();
String tmpSelectDistrict = "";
tmpSelectDistrict = request.getParameter("bSelectDistrict");
if(tmpSelectDistrict != null)
     // get multiple values from the list
     String[] selectedDistrict = request.getParameterValues("usrTDistrict");
     vselectedDistrict.clear();
     vdistrictID.clear();
     if((selectedDistrict != null) && (selectedDistrict.length != 0))
                       for(int i=0;i<selectedDistrict.length;i++)
               vselectedDistrict.addElement(selectedDistrict);
          vdistrictID = dbaseInfo.getcurrentDistrictID(nstate,vselectedDistrict);
          for(int i=0;i<vdistrictID.size();i++)
               out.println("district = " + selectedDistrict[i]);                         out.println("district ID= " + vdistrictID.get(i).toString());
%>
// get vdistrict from the database here......
<select name="usrTDistrict" size="5" multiple>
<%     for(int i = 0; i< vdistrict.size(); i++)
%>
     <option value="<%=vdistrict.get(i).toString()%>"><%=vdistrict.get(i).toString()%></option>
<%
%>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="bSelectDistrict" value="Select District">
Lets say the item that i selected from the list is 'Xplace' and I clicked on the Select District button,
what I got is this error message:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to convert string 'Xplace' to class java.util.Vector for attribute usrTDistrict: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Property Editor not registered with the PropertyEditorManager
So where is going wrong and what the message means?. Any help very much appreciated. Thanks

These are just guesses that might hopefully steer you in directions you haven't looked in yet.
I presume you used triangle brackets (< >) to avoid having the Jive Forum think it was the "italics" tag?
Are you certain this: dbaseInfo.getcurrentDistrictID(nstate,vselectedDistrict);
expects a Vector as its second parameter? And returns a Vector?
I don't believe you've shown how you use the javabean, or its code? Perhaps it should be rewritten to accept an array of strings instead of a Vector?

How to get a value from the previous element (XSLT/XPATH gurus ahoy!)

Hi All,
I am building an RTF template for a "letter of reference"-report. Sometimes there are several rows in the data, that need to be printed as one. This is due to consecutive temporary contracts, which will be printed out as one period of service.
Here's a simplified data example to illustrate the problem.
<ROW>
<START_DATE>01-01-1980</START_DATE>
<END_DATE>01-01-1988</END_DATE>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<START_DATE>01-01-1988</START_DATE>
<END_DATE>01-01-1990</END_DATE>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<START_DATE>01-01-2000</START_DATE>
<END_DATE>01-01-2005</END_DATE>
</ROW>
With the data above, I should print two lines:
01-01-1980 - 01-01-1990
01-01-2000 - 01-01-2005
I need to compare START_DATE of an element (except for the first one) with the END_DATE of the previous element, to find out whether to print the END_DATE for that element or not. How can I get that value from the previous element?
Thanks & Regards, Matilda

use this to get the following End_date
<?following-sibling::../END_DATE?>
Try this
<?for-each:/ROOT/ROW?>
==================
Current StartDate <?START_DATE?>
Current End Date <?END_DATE?>

How to get a signal from the serial port to start a labview program?

I need to synchronize the data obtained from a program (which is not in Labview)with the data collected with Labview on a different computer. I can send some data strings to the serial port of the computer running the Labview program when the other program starts. However, I need to be able to read the trigger in my Labview program. Do you know what I should do? Thanks.

If you don't have any other programs listening on the COM port, you need to let a LV program run BEFORE the signal comes, otherwise you won't be able to read it. You can have the program wait in a slow timed loop so that it doesn't use up too much CPU time, and when the required "trigger" comes, to move into the main part of the program.
You basically need a while loop waiting for a certain string in the serial buffer. Once the string is found the while loop is exited, and the data acqquisition or whatever else you require from the progam can be performed.
In the example attached the program wait for ANY text to be sent to the COM port. Please note that you need to configure the VISA resource before using it. Once there is something at the COM port, the loop will exit and the rest of the program will be executed.
Hope this helps

How to get a formula from the user from a text box in a webpage

Hi. I would like to know how to get the formula from the user who enters in a textbox. This formula can have any number of variables starting with a and goes on.
The complexity of the formula can go upto sin, cos, ln, exp. Also user enters the minimum and maximum values of these variables. Based on a specific algorithm (which I use) I would calculate a *set of values, say 10, for each of these variables, substitute in the formula and based on the result of this formula, I select ONE suitable value for each of the variables.
I don't know how to get this formula (which most likely to be different each time) and substitute the values *which I found earlier.
Kindly help me out in this issue.
Thanks

The textbox is the easy part. It's no different than getting a String parameter out of an HTTP request.
The hard part is parsing the String into a "formula" for evaluation. You'll have to write a parser or find one.
Google for "Java math expression parser" and see what you get.
Or write your own with JavaCC.

How to get page number from the PDF using Javascript

Hi,
We are having list of Single page PDF. The pdf are named in the order,
ISBN_Author_01.PDF (with real page number as i)
ISBN_Author_02.PDF (with real page number as ii)
ISBN_Author_03.PDF (with real page number as iii)
ISBN_Author_04.PDF (with real page number as 1)
ISBN_Author_05.PDF (with real page number as 2)
ISBN_Author_06.PDF (with real page number as 3)
ISBN_Author_nn.PDF (with real page number as 500)
Here each pdf has a page number and in sequential order.
The task is to check whether all the pdfs are in sequential order (i.e i, ii, iii, 1, 2, 3). If any page is missing, the script should throw an error report.
To do this task, I am writing a Javascript to get the real page number from the PDF.
Can anybody help me how to get the page number from the PDF using Javascript.
Thanks,
Gopal

The "real" page number within a PDF is the count of the physical page starting at 0, zero.
pageNum numPages
The number printed on each page is the page label.
setPageLabels getPageLabel
You will have to open each PDF and your script would need to know the page label for that file. I would expect you would need to build a 2 dimensional array of the file names and the page label for the page within that array.

How to get updated values from the loops while they are running

Hello,
I am having difficulty solving a very basic problem, how to access the updated values from the 'FOR loop' while its running? Basically, the VI I am currently working on calls two sub VIs. Each sub VI has a for loop, and both VIs may or may not run for same number of iterations. My goal is to read the values at each terminal inside the loop of both sub VIs, in the Main VI. I tried to achieve it using Global Variables, but in main VI it displays only the last iteration value from both sub VIs. Could anyone please tell me whrere am I going wrong? Is there any other/better way to achieve this.
I appreciate any input on this issue.
Kudos are (always) welcome for the good post. :-)
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Dennis,
In attached VI, I can see the values changing in the sub VI from the main VI with the numeric indicator whose reference is passed on to the sub VI. Now if I wanted to store or use those values how do I do that? I tried to chnge the indicator to control and read from it (in the attached VI) , but the the indicator updates only once. Tried to create a property node and read the Value from it and it didn't work either.
Thanks in Advance!

How to get specific rows from the vo or Iterator in the backing bean?

Hi,
I have to get the specific number of rows from iterator in the backing bean. means i want to get the records from the VO or Iterator only from 5 th record to 10th record its like rownum in SQL.
We can use rownum in VO sql query. but there would be a performance issue with that ...
SO i am trying to get the rows from ADF Iterator once we fetch from DB.
Is it possible to do that ?
Do we have any way to set the pointer to the VO/Iterator like setFirst() and after that setMaxResult to retrun the rows between first and maxresult..
Thanks

If this is for pagination, then af:table offers pagination by design when you set accessmode=RangePaging or RangePagingIncremental in VO. Paginated queries are fired when scroll down in the table. Explore this option before you try out any custom solution
To answer the question,
Note: same logic i have implpemented ADF with EJB ..In EJB Query class we have setFirst(int) and setMaxResult(int) methods...simply i did setFirst(30) and setMaxResult(10)..It worked fine...Theoretically speaking the same can be achieved by setting setRangeStart() on the viewobject(which in turn sets to the default rowset) and by setting max fetch size on VO + accessmode=RangePaging. However when you use table with ADF binding, these will be overridden by the binding layer. If you are not using ADF binding, then the above is same as what you did for JPA entity. Other option is, you build expert mode VO with rownum for this special case, which will work if you dont need to set accessmode=RangePaging for VO.
