Problem initializing DIO for PXI-6713

Hello,
Several years ago I wrote a very large RT program in LV 6.1 which has run without problems for 3 years. While adding some new features, I decided to upgrade to LV 7.1 (it was too scary to take it all the way to LV 8.0).
I am using 18 bits of DIO (6 groups of 3 bits) to drive some external divider circuitry, 12 bits from a PXI-6602 and 6 bits from the PXI-6713. I am also using 6 counters from the 6602 and 6 Analog outs from the 6713. After the upgrade, it will no longer initialize the digital output of the PXI-6713, even though it worked fine in LV 6.1
Later in the program, I use each group of 3 bit DIO to determine the divisor of each circuit. After power-up, I have to go into MAX and use the 6713 DIO test panel to "jump start" the DIO outputs, and then it works from there. Luckily, we run continuously and power down only once every few months.
The problem is the same in 5 different PXI systems.
Attached is a condensed version of the DIO inits for both cards.
Thanks for any help I can get,

Nicolas,
Thanks for your reply,
< When you say that it will not initialize the DO, do you mean that the power-up states are not what you expect? >
After the initialization, the DO is all zeros, and the periodic updates do not create anything other than zeros. I don't record any errors, but the DO updates do not respond to any commands. Basically, the 1st 6 bits should be able to output in groups of 3 bits (typically 00_110_101 or 00_101_101. The result is that the output of my divider circuit is always divide by 1, rather than 60, 40, 30, 24, 20, or 15.
Once I "jump start' in MAX, the outputs will update normally for months afterwards, until the system has to be powered up again.
< Try using the Device Reset.vi (which can be found on the Calibration and Configuration palatte) before the Port Configure.vi>
I won't be able to try anything until the next shutdown, which could be months from now, but I will be sure to try it then.
< Also, did you upgrade your NI-DAQ driver when you upgraded from
LabVIEW 6.1 to 7.1? >
Yes, it's been upgraded to NI-DAQ 7.2.0
I'm attaching an extract of the VI which updates the output, although it always works correctly once the initialization is good.
Thanks again,
McSynth

A problem when installing the RFSA/RFSG for PXIe-5644R

When I intall the software "NI-RFSA/RFSG for PXIe-5644R",there is always a problem,that says——
NI-RFSA Instrument Driver Support
This installer could not detect a supported version of NI-RFSA. To develop and run applications for the NI 5644R using the NI-RFSA instrument driver, exit this installer and install NI-RFSA 2.5.2. Then, re-run this installer.
but I surely have installed the NI-RFSA 2.5.2 before. This problem bothering me for a long time.I really want to know how to solve it.Thanks.

How Do I Configure the PFI Lines as input in PXI 6713 module

Hi,
I have PXI 6713 module in my PXI 1044 chassis. I have configured PXI 6713 module to geneate certain analogue signals to my board.
Board inturn process this analogue signal and responds back the status signals through a status register on the board. In my application,the status bits in status register of the board are mapped to the PFI 0:3 bits on PXI 6713 module ( pins 11,10 , 42 and 43).
My query is how do i configue the PFI lines as input in PXI 6713 module to read these status bits ??
May be below explanation could give you little bit more information w.r.to my query.
When i use NI USB - 6008 module to read the same bits , since this device has 12 digital I/O lines, i could able to read the status bits in to the last 4 digital lines by configuring the those digital lines as input.
In PXI 6713 module i have only 8 digital lines. These 8 digital lines i have used to send the digital signals to the board. I am left with no digital I/O lines. Hence i couldn't use these digital lines. I am left with only one option to use. Theya re PFI lines. Moreover the status bits in the pin out of board are mapped such that the bits can be read through the PFI lines.
I am wondering do we have any example code to use inorder to read these status bits on the board using the PFI lines.
Please let me know if you need additional information to help me out.
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello There,
When using the PFI pin as an input, you can individually configure each PFI for edge or level detection and for polarity selection. This PFI information can be referenced in the DAQ Analog Output Series Manual on page 6-1 (http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/370735e.pdf). Unfortunately, the PXI-6713 PFI lines are only capable of timing input and output signal for AI, AO, or counter/timer functions. The option of creating static DI from the PFI lines is not available for the PXI-6713. However, some cards have this capability. Newer National Instruments products with PFI lines have the option of setting PFI lines as:
Static Digital Input
Static Digital Output
Timing Input Signal for AI, AO, DI, DO, or counter/timer functions
Timing Output Signal from AI, AO, DI, DO, or counter/timer functions
(http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/14F20D79C649F8CD86256FBE005C2BC4)
When set as static DIO, the PFI lines are assigned to a different port (eg. PFI0-7 is Port1). More details about this can be referenced at:

Generating a square waveform of 100 KHz from one of the Anolog output channels of PXI-6713 ?

Hi
I am trying to generate a square waveform from one of the anolog output channels of PXI 6713.
I am developing my application in VC++
My requirement is a continous 100 KHz square waveform with 90% duty cycle and 1.5 V amplitude.
The following is the code i have used (i have removed error handling code):
***** code *******
i16 deviceNumber = 6; // PXI 6713 Device Id as per NI-MAX
i16 deviceNumberCode; // to be returned by Init_DA_Brds function
i16 chan = 2; // DAC channel 2
i16 numChans = 1; // only one channel is used for
i16 chanVect[1] = {2}; // DAC Channel 2
f64 gain = 1.0;
i16 binArray[10] = {0};
i16 group = 1; // default for most of the devices
u32 count = 10; // 10 data points
// 9 data points ON and 1 data point OFF constituting 90% duty cycle
f64 voltArray[10] = {1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,1.5,0};
u32 iterations = 0; // Repeat waveform indefinitely
i16 mode = 0; // Disable FIFO mode / delay mode
f64 rate = 100000; // 100,000 points / sec
i16 units = 0; // points / sec
i16 timebase;
u32 updateInterval;
i16 whichclock = 0; // update clock
i16 operation = 1; // Start waveform initiation
Init_DA_Brds (deviceNumber, &deviceNumberCode);
WFM_Scale (deviceNumber, chan, count, gain, voltArray, binArray);
WFM_Group_Setup (deviceNumber, numChans, chanVect, group);
WFM_Load (deviceNumber, numChans, chanVect, binArray, count, iterations, mode);
WFM_Rate (rate, units, &timebase, &updateInterval);
WFM_ClockRate (deviceNumber, group, whichclock, timebase, updateInterval, mode);
WFM_Group_Control (deviceNumber, group, operation);
If I try to generate 10 KHz waveform with the same 90% duty cycle and 1.5 V amplitude, the waveform gets generated continously....
But for 100 KHz, itz generating continously....but only few waveforms....
Is there any hardware limitations ? I've tried changing the value of the timebase ( points / sec) and update interval etc...
plz help me
thanx in advance
sriram.

Sriram;
The best way to get started is to run one of the NI-DAQ shipping examples. You can find a good example at
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-DAQ\Examples\VisualC\Ao. Take the one named WFMDoubleBuf.c.
On that example, you will just need to change the data written to the buffer to met your application's pulse train requirement.
Hope this helps.

I can't reset my PXI-6713.

I can't reset my PXI-6713. My os is Windows 2000 , LV 6.1 , Nidaq 6.8.0 . I have another card in the pxi chassis , a 6704 wich I can reset. Im using the Reset vi located in Daq AO . I know I have the right dev number as I can set the analog outputs to any level I choose.

Reset on the PXI6713. I found out the 6713 analog outputs won't respond to the Device Reset.VI because of the way the hardware is designed. I don't get an error code except 0 (ok )on the status output. I know the reset failed because I set the outputs to a voltage and they did not go to Zero. I also have a simulator analog card PXI6704 which would respond to the Reset.
Now I just send zero volts to the outputs and that solves the problem. I think doing a low level the STC Joint_reset_register (72) I could reset the 6713
thanks for all.
P.S I tried this with the CVI Init_ , it did not work either.

Aquisition of a voltage Signal with PXI 6713

Hi.
I want to make voltage aquisition with a PXI 6713 card. I take the Channels ai16 to ai33. The voltage at the clamp is 3.886VDC ( measured with a DMM ). When i measure the voltage and calculate it into a current ( see my applikation atteched ) the result is something between -10 and -24mA?!?!?
Are the settinges in the DAQmx Express-VI "analog voltage aquire" wrong or could it be another Problem?
My settings are:
RSE
voltage measuring from 0 to +8VDC
N Samples
I hope of yous Answer.
Thanks

analog_voltage_aquisition.jpg ‏33 KB

Is it a trick question??
First of all, Looks like you mentioned the card wrong PXI 6713 is an AO card, without any AI channels
Which card are you using??
Are you connecting a 390 ohm Resistance on your connector block to convert current signal to Voltage equivalent?? ( Sounds like you are not )
Are you measuring the Voltage correctly in the first place??
if you are not, check if the signal is connected correctly for RSE mode
Hope this Helps

Timebase synchronization issue with PXI 6713

As indicated in another post, I need to use a common timebase to all cards within my PXI chassis to synchronize my acquisition/generation DAQmx tasks.
I performed that successfully by setting timebases of all boards from the 20MHz timebase of a E-series DAQ board.
I have another system setup where I do not have E-series DAQ boards but only M-series. In this case, I tried to synchronize all the cards with the 10MhzRefClock of a PXI 6254 board. It seemed to work correctly, until I looked at the analog output signal of one PXI 6713 board.
This device has 8 analog outputs, I performed as for DAQ boards : I set its timebase to a 10Mhz clock. When I have at least two outputs with hardware timing I observe on scope really weird signal : nothing is visible when all outputs are left to zero volt, but when another voltage is set, the output toggles at very high frequency between 0V and the setting voltage. When two outputs are set to values different from zero, the output also toggles but between these two settings...
I thought it was a board failure, but I checked with another PXI 6713 and the behavior is the same.
When synchronizing with a 20MHz timebase, everything is fine, but 10MHz clearly shows this issue. I checked the 6713 documentation, and it seems possible to use a timebase different than 20MHz.
I attached a VI that illustrates the problem : I create a DAQmx task containing 2 AOs, where 10MHz timebase is taken from a M-series DAQ board. A hardware timed single point timing is configured and outputs are updated in a while loop. If you connect a scope to the first analog output, you will see the phenomenon.
Everyting is fine when you select a 20MHz clock as a timebase. 10MHz leads to this issue. I also tried to synchronize through PXI backplane clock (i.e. /6259_1/PXI_Clk10) but it leads to the same problem.
Please note that using the same 10MHz synchronization on DAQ cards (PXI 6040E, 6071E, 6254, 6259...) for AO works perfectly. I only encountered this problem with PXI 6713 board.

Synchro 10 MHz PXI AO.vi ‏34 KB

Inpriser,
You wanted to use the PXI 10MHz clock to synchronize to 6713s using the PXI capabilities. I’m afraid that since the AO series doesn't have a PLL, you won't be able to use the PXI 10 clock.
I made a few search and found this:
“Neither the 6713 nor any of the AO series support PLL synchronization. However, the M-Series does, though in that case you are limited to a smaller number of analog outputs. Regardless, the best option is using an Arb or other card that can use the Star Trigger, or an m-series device with PLL synchronization capabilities.”
For more info’s about how to deal with PXI and PLL, please check this forum:
http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=11986&requireLogin=False
I’m sorry to disappoint you, hoping you’ll manage to deal with that,

How to set initial value for a dropdown box?

Hi,
Within Netweaver 2004S (BI 7.0) we use integrated planning. In one of our applications we want to use a dropdown box (created with the WAD) to make a selection possible for a characteristic.
We set up a pre-query to fill the dropdown box (via data binding CHARACTERISTIC_SELECTION) with the proper values. This works fine.
We pass on the choosen entry (via command SET_VARIABLES_STATE) to a second variable that is used in another query. This command is triggered after the user makes a selection in the dropdown box. Also this works fine. After selection of one entry, the output of the second query is limited.
We have the following problem: the first time a blank selection entry is added to the dropdownbox and that no values are passed on to the second query. Because it seems that the user first must choose an entry.
What we would like to do is that one of the found values of the pre-query is automatically selected in the dropdown box and passed on to the second variable (to limit the second query).
I give you an example:
The first query delivers value A, B, and C for the characteristic of the dropdown box.
The first time the dropdown box showns an empty entry, and three additional entries A, B and C. The second query shows all results, because the second variable doesn't receive any value via the command SET_VARIABLES_STATE. The command is not yet triggered.
When you select A, B or C, the command is triggered and the second query shows only results for the choosen entry (this is correct). Now the empty entry has disappeared from the dropdown box. Only the entries A, B and C are left.
Is it possible to set up the dropdown box on such a way (or add some script coding around it) that in the initial show for the dropdown box one of the entries is choosen automatically, so that the empty line is not part of the value set of the dropdown box and that the command connected to the dropdown box (in our case the SET_VARIABLES_STATE) is carried out automatically?
Please, who can help us with this?
Kind regards and thanks in advance,
Marcel.

Hi,
In BW 3.5,say you want to set default for calmonth.
In order to avoid the ALL option from appearing in the dropdown box,
filter infobject 0CALMONTH for DP1 by any valid value.
In the object Data_provider include the lines in Bold:
<object>
<param name="OWNER" value="SAP_BW"/>
<param name="CMD" value="SET_DATA_PROVIDER"/>
<param name="NAME" value="DP1"/>
<param name="QUERY" value="WORKSHOP_CALMONTH_DROPDOWN"/>
<param name="INFOCUBE" value="0D_SD_C03"/>
<<b>param name="FILTER_IOBJNM" value="0CALMONTH"/>
<param name="FILTER_VALUE" value="200401"/></b>
DATA_PROVIDER: DP1

Error: Missing initial value for session parameter

Please anyone give me an idea what is causing the problem.
Thanks,

in DAC > Run History > Task Details, query
Name = SDE_ORA_Product_Category_Temporary
Open Status Description, look for string -lpf, the file after it is the actual parameter file DAC send to INFA server. E.g

Open the parameter file, most likely the [session_name] does not match with SDE_ORA_Product_Category_Derive_Full or some parameters are missing.

Problem with Overwrite for Key Figures in ODS

A bit of a long explanation, but the problem is not so complicated...
We have an ODS containing contract line items. Each line item has a key figure "Total Contract Target" that is marked with update type "overwrite". We have modified the extractor that delivers data for this ODS so that the key figure is set to a value from the contract header. Since we don't want the key figure to be duplicated if there are multiple line items on the contract, the user exit for the extractor modifies only the first line item delivered.
For example, overall contract target value = 100. Contract has 3 line items. Contract target value for line item 1 is 100. Target value for line item 2 and 3 is 0.
This all works fine for initial loads, but there is a problem with the business content extractor for deltas. Whenever a single change is made, it delivers three sets of records. Continuing the example, we would receive 9 records for the contract (3 sets of 3 line items). Each of the three sets contains the same records. Only the first set has the correct contract target value. Since the ODS key figure is set to overwrite, our method of setting the total contract value in the first record doesn't work, because the extractor delivers duplicates so the duplicates overwrite the total with a 0.
Would setting the key figure for total contract value to update type "additive" solve this? (I'm concerned that additions would be made if there were only a change to characteristics and not the key figure). Thanks for your assistance.

Since we ought to post solutions to problems we discover for people who search this forum...
Solved this by modifying the customer exit for the extractor to set the key figure for the first contract line item encountered AND for all subsequent records with the same contract number / contract line item. Since the key figure in the ODS is set to overwrite, this makes sure that the last record written doesn't overwrite the key figure with 0.

Regarding Initial load for CUA

we are testing CUA migration in IDM7.0 version.
Already below systems exists in my place
1)IDM7.0
2)CUA System(ABAP)
3)ABAP systems(Child for CUA system)
Now how to integrate CUA with IDM7.0 and Migrate CUA User information. Instead of Connecting each abap system with IDM, we plan to connect CUA and take all the data to IDM.
so how to do this? Executing Initial load for CUA system will solve this problem ? or any particular process available.
please suggest us.
regards

hi mathew,
thanks for your reply
Actually our initial step is to find to what extend CUA system information can be taken ove(Migrate) to IDM.
I feel It would be better to take all the Child system user info from CUA at one point rather than connecting each abap system with IDM. so that i can disconnect CUA once IDM is established.
So wondering how to integrate CUA system with IDM7.0, Executing Initial load for CUA system is same
as executing initial load fo ABAP system.
please shed light on this.
regards

Css problem in media for ipod and mobile

I have a problem applying code for a menu on a webpage.
I have posted the site example on www.tdrd.karoo.net
and the complete zip at www.tdrd.karoo.net/index.zip
I have applied the effect fine for the Full screen model media section of responsive.css but when I try to tailor the menu for the smaller resolutions it is only adjusting it for the full screen version.
I have applied the middle resolution in the example uploaded but for some reason it is not applying it to the model.
Please can anyone shed light as why this could be - the clue has to be somewhere in the nav section of the css....
Thank you
Terry

Stopped Initial download for Bupa_Main in CRM in between

Hi Experts,
We have a problem in CRM. The initial download for the object BUPA_MAIN was accidently started by one of collegues.
The job ran for almost 24 hour adn was still running. The queues went as high as to 40000 entries & the outbound queues started getting stuck in ISU system
So we had to finally kill the job & things resumes as normal...
Can anybody let me know as to what would be the impact of killing the job...

Hi Rohit,
Thanks for the info.
Please let me know as to which table will i have to check to see if the download is successfully completed. ( for object BUPA_MAIN)
And did u mean unlocking the queues by quoting 'clearing ' the queue. We we did clear the blocked queue (r3ad* ) but the queue R3AI* got cleared automatically...
Also it seems that the R3AI* queue is still running even cancelling the job.
Also shows as a error in SWMP tcode indicating a abort of initial download. How do i get rid of it.

Is there an output switch at the analog front end of PXI-6723 and PXI-6713?

I was reading the analaog output user manual and i could not find this. Is there any output switch just before the analog output of each channel for PXI-6723 and PXI-6713? I am would like to have total isolation between when these output are not needed. If yes, is there any specification to refer to?
Thanks.

Hello Chris,
I would recommend having a look at the examples in the LabVIEW
example finder to start with. In particular i would look at 'Cont Gen
Wfm-Ext Clk.vi' This is a basic example that allows you to output a
waveform through the card and source an external clock source to do
this. I would recommend exporting the sample clock that you wish to use
from the 4462 on one of the RTSI lines and then setting this as the
sample clock source for the Analog output card.
Another good example to look at is the 'Cont Gen Voltage Wfm-Int Clk
non regeneration.vi' This does not regenerate the same waveform in the
buffer but instead creates a new waveform to output after the previous
one has been written to the buffer.
It should be noted that there may be some gliltching if you are
updating the waveform. This is because the buffer will already have a
waveform in there to output before you input the new one so a new
frequency may not have an exact number periods that fit into the
pre-defined buffer. If you are looking to generate dynamic waveforms
then the best option for the best results would be one of our arbitrary
waveform generators here.
Good Luck,
