Serial receive - ignore \r\n CR LF ascii codes

Hello,
I am trying to read an array of characters including carriage return and line feed into one array into labview. I receive the command then wait x miliseconds until all data has been received and then read all data in the buffer using the serial read function. An example sequence of series of characters is as follows:
printf("RTCC time date\r\n35:6c:53\r\n0d/02/cb\r\n")
I need to receive this exact set of characters and store them into one array in labview. It appears that labview automatically breaks from the read routine when it receives the Carriage return or line feed code. Which, when writing to an array only gives the characters up to the line feed, then overwrites them upon exiting and returning the receive the next set of chars up to the next line feed. Which, in this case would require to have 3 separate arrays in order to store all of the data. Which ends up looking like this:
array1 "RTCC time date\r\n"
array2 "35:6c:53\r\n"
array3 "0d/02/cb\r\n"
It seems like there should be a setting to disable the read function response to the \r\n, but I cannot find any. For that matter, Can someone please guide to documentation that details this type of functionality using the VISA functions? I have searched the help and it gives a very very superficial explanation. I have found the VISA manual, but it only details C code implementation.
Attached is a VI that flows as explained.
Thanks
Solved!

All right, apparently I am a retard. Last try.

How to send an attached file containing with non-ascii code ?

Hi,
I want to send a attaced text file containing with non-ascii code(Traditional Chinese). Is there any way to solve the encoding problem?
Currently, it transfer into non-meaningful code in receiving side.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Here is the code:
Session _gSession = null;
MimeMessage message = null;
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", smtpHost);
_gSession = javax.mail.Session.getInstance(props, null);
message = new MimeMessage(_gSession);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(emailSender , emailSender));
InternetAddress ia[] = new InternetAddress[1];
ia[0] = new InternetAddress(emailReceiver, emailReceiver);
message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, ia);
message.setSubject("Test Encoding Attached File");
message.saveChanges();
BodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
DataSource fds = new FileDataSource("Big5_Code.txt");
messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(fds));
messageBodyPart.addHeader("Content-ID","meme");
MimeMultipart multipart = new MimeMultipart("related");
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
message.setContent(multipart);
transport.connect();
transport.send(message);

'Open Dataset' command - add ASCII code in a unicode system

Hi,
I use following comand in order to save a file on an application server.
open dataset <path> for output in text mode encoding default.
Is it possible to convert file to ASCII code instead of the system setting unicode and to ignore conversion errors? If yes, please tell me how.
Thanks!

How do I get labview to send out ascii code to a device?

I am trying to use a device that does not have labview drivers. However, the company has sent out their own program but it is two letter ascii code. I want to make the interface easier than having to learn all the ascii codes when one wants to do something. How would I go about programming labview to send out ascii code to move my device?

Are you asking how to communicate with the device or how to allow user to select from easily understood commands?
If you need help communicating, look at the communication examples that ship with LabView. I'm guessing that your device is serial. To find the examples, from any LabView window, goto Help >> Find Examples >> Search, then enter Serial in the box labeled Type a keyword to find:
If you want to help the user pick a command, there are a bunch of ways to do this. Most typical are using a ring or enum on your front panel and doing the translations from user commands to machine commands on your diagram. Look at the attached LabView 6.1 example which shows a ring and an enum. To initialize the enum or ring, select the text tool and left-click on the
control, then enter your text. To add more items, right-click on the control and select Add Item After (or Before) and type the text for the new command. The diagram will see the output as a number. Use that number to select an index from a multi-line string or to select a case in a case structure. One nice thing about the enum is that the cases are automatically named with the enum string. An easy way to get cases for all items is to put a string constant in the first case, wire it out of the case, then right-click on the case boarder and select Duplicate Case. You'll get a new case named for the next item with a string already wired out. Then you can just edit the string text in each new case for the desired output.

Convert char to ascii code and vice versa

HI
Is there any function module to convert char to ascii code and vice versa.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
be careful if you have unicode running in your system. URL_ASCII_CODE_GET is platform-dependent so it will return the internal HERX representation of the character in your system - which is hopefully and in most cases ASCII.
Under unicode, we use double-byte characters here. I tried this function and the result CHAR_CODE is '00' regardless what character I specify for TRANS_CHAR. But the coding is so simple I corrected resultig in this sample code:
[P]
convert p_form to ASCII (internal) representation
DATA:
    l_ofs TYPE syfdpos,
    l_len TYPE sy-linsz,
    l_ascii TYPE i.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:
    <x> TYPE x.
l_len = STRLEN( p_ascii ).
DO l_len TIMES.
    l_ofs = sy-index - 1.
    ASSIGN p_ascii+l_ofs(1) TO <x> CASTING.
    l_ascii = <x>.
    WRITE: l_ascii.
ENDDO.
[/P]
Here, for each character of string p_ascii, the internal (ASCII) representation is determined and written to the output list.

Clemens

How can I get the ASCII code instead of Unicode?

If I use getNumericValue to return the Unicode of a character, I found out "a" = "A". Is there any way I can find out the different code for capital letter and small letter? I'm thinking about ASCII code, any suggestion for which method to return the ASCII code?

That is not what getNumericValue does. (Try getNumericValue('*'), for example, and you will see it returns -1.) If you want to find the Unicode value of a character, simply cast the character to an int:char letter = 'A';
int unicodeValue = (int)letter;If the character you chose was in the ASCII character set, you will automatically have its ASCII code, because ASCII is simply the first 128 characters in the Unicode character set.

Problem showing Trademark symbol using ascii code in Flex 3

I am facing problem in displaying trademark symbol (™) using ascii codes(it is showing square symbol). I have ascii code stored in the database for trademark symbol(ascii code "" ). So I can't use Hexa code instead of ascii code. But using ascii code I am able to show copyright symbol. Following is the sample code :
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical">
    <mx:Script>
        var trademarkSymbol = "\u2122";
        var trademarkSymbol1 = "";
        var copyrightSymbol = "\u00A9";
        var copyrightSymbol1 = "©";
    </mx:Script>
    <mx:Label text="Macromedia™"/>
    <mx:Label text="Macromedia{trademarkSymbol}"/>
    <mx:Label text="Macromedia{trademarkSymbol1}"/>      \\ problem code
    <mx:Label text="Macromedia©"/>
    <mx:Label text="Macromedia{copyrightSymbol}"/>
    <mx:Label text="Macromedia{copyrightSymbol1}"/>
</mx:Application>
Please suggest some solution.
Regards
Rajat Sahni

You must use Unicode values, not Windows extended ASCII values.
The Unicode value of a copyright symbol is hex 00A9 or decimal 169. This happens to be the same as where it is in a Windows' extended ASCII character set, but this is irrelevant. The Unicode value of a copyright symbol is hex 2122 or decimal 8482. In Windows' extended ASCII it has a different value, hex 99 or decimal 153, but again this is irrelevant.
So the reason you think it "works" for the copyright and not for the trademark is that the two character sets agree on the value of the copyright but disagree on the value of the trademark.
Moral: Find a good Unicode table.

ASCII Code in ABAP

Hi Experts,
We need to enter a unique ASCII character called 'US' or Unit Separator in a text file being generated through a program.
The ASCII code for US is 31. However when we try and do it programmatically the character '#' is getting populated.
The code is as follows:
DATA : lv_sep type c.
field-symbols : <xfs> type x.
assign lv_sep to <xfs> casting.
<xfs> = 0031.
write lv_sep.
Kindly help us out.
Thanks and Regards,
Ravi Bhatnagar

Hi,
This character is special one, so you can't print it out. In SAP all special charcter which can't be printed are replaced with placeholder #. They are intended to do theri special purpose in flat file, once you open it.
Do the following:
- use fm HR_KR_XSTRING_TO_STRING to convert xstring with value '1F' (30 decimal value) to string
- write this string to certain place in internal string table (where you want later use it in the file)
- download this table as to file
- special character will do its purpose in text file
This is the same functionality as you would be placing Line Feed (0x0A - 10 dec). It would be shown as # but once you open downlaoded file you don't see hash # anymore, but you see that new line in that place.
Hope this is clear
Regards

How do I get labview for linux to send out ascii code to a motion controller?

I have posted part of this problem but I will now try to clearify things. I have an x-y stage that needs motion control. I have to run the motion controller from within a linux system (RedHat 7.1) due to others in the research area. I have found a motion controller card (PCI) that will run under linux. This card is not National Instruments. I understand that they do not have drivers for their controller cards. This other card comes with the companies own software that uses ASCII codes to move the motors on the stage. I was hoping to create a program that could call those ASCII codes to move the stage. An example would be if a user wanted to have the stage move to the right he would press a b
utton on the screen instead of typing in whatever ASCII could that move to the right happens to be. How would I go about programming something like this? I have heard of others doing things like this but I am unsure of how to program labview to send out ASCII codes to a PCI card to move motors.

Look in the manual to see get familiar with the sequences of codes you
need to write, and more importantly, where you write them to. I suspect
a memory location, but it could be a socket or port.
Each of these locations will have a slightly different way of accessing
it. Once you know, search devzone for how to do it on linux, or post
back here.
After you can send the codes to the right location, you probably want to
build a state machine that simplifies the interface and prevents certain
actions from taking place. Now determine which buttons or
keys perform
which actions and use either the event structure or the older polling
for control changes to affect state changes in the state machine.
I'm summarizing here assuming that you know what a state machine is and
why you'd want to use it. If I'm assuming too much, do some research
and post again with more specific questions. Also be sure to look at
example VIs as they show how to respond to UI actions.

Unable to print ASCII codes

Hello,
I am facing a problem in printing ASCII code between 128 and 159. these codes are displayed as '?'. All the other codes are printed correctly. Please let me know the reason behind this.
Given below is the code for the same
class Codes
     public static void main(String args[])
          short i = 165;
          for (i=0; i<=256;i+=5)

1. What are the chars you are talking about? As already mentioned, they are control chars in unicode. What character encoding would you like to use, or in other words, what characters would you like to have for those bytes?
2. The character encoding of the dos console (Cp850 on the windozes I've used) is different from the system's default encoding (Cp1252, IIRC). This will cause problems if you want to print out text having non-ascii characters. For example System.out.println("ÅÄÖ") should print out the last three letters of the finnish alphabet but it prints something else instead. But if you write the text to a file it comes out as it should.
Another character encoding can be used by wrapping an OutputStreamWriter around System.out:
OutputStreamWriter osw = new OutputStreamWriter(System.out, "Cp850");
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(osw, true);
out.println("ÅÄÖ");
Similarly, the input read through the standard inputstream in dos (the keyboard input or redirection using "<") is in another encoding and needs to be converted.

Read the characters or String from keyboard input
put then I want the sum of the ascii code of the
String or the characters. Please help ....
HanThe keyboard input part is a little more coding envolved. Here is a sample of what can be done if
you know what to implement. It needs three classes
from the java.io package. Well, here is the complete
source code for the 'keyboard input' and a driver
class to test it.
//package consoleclass;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.io.IOException;
class Driver
     public static void main ( String[] args)
          System.out.println("Enter a number");
          int number = MyInput.readInt();
          System.out.println("number entered "+ number);
          System.out.println("Enter another number");
          number = MyInput.readInt();
          System.out.println("number entered "+ number);
class MyInput
/**Read a string from the keyboard*/
public static String readString()
     BufferedReader br
       = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in), 1);
     // Declare and initialize the string
     String string = " ";
     // Get the string from the keyboard
     try
       string = br.readLine();
     catch (IOException ex)
       System.out.println(ex);
     // Return the string obtained from the keyboard
     return string;
/**Read an int value from the keyboard*/
public static int readInt()
     return Integer.parseInt(readString());
/**Read a double value from the keyboard*/
public static double readDouble()
     return Double.parseDouble(readString());
}

ShellScriptResourceAdapter ignores STDERR and non zero exit codes?

My ShellScript Resource seems to ignore any output to STDERR and also ignores script commands failing with exit codes other than 0.
Let's say I run this in bash:
meh@moo ~$ perl -e 'print(STDERR "Error "); die("foo");' 1>/dev/null
Error foo at -e line 1.
meh@moo ~$ echo $?
255Perl clearly exits with STDERR Output and exit code -1.
Now, if I run this as the "Update User" ResourceAction in IDM 6 SP1, it always tells me everything went fine without any errors.
Running it as "Create User" ResourceAction at least gives me:
Error foo at -e line 1.
null
Result Code = 255
And the CREATE actually fails.
But Update and Delete seem to ignore STDERR and exit codes.
Or am I missing something? It would be great to see any error in IDM when one of the ResourceAction scripts' steps is failing...

Somkeit,
What did you change in UME Configuration?
Please look in defaulttrace_# log and paste error here.
What is exit code ?
Can you revert back your UME changes and see if system starts or no.
Thanks,

Saving characters with ASCII codes (128 - 256) into txt file problem

Hello,
I am saving a query results into a text file (test.txt) with this procedure:
BEGIN
OWA_UTIL.mime_header ('application/octet', FALSE);
HTP.p ('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="TEST.TXT"');
OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
for rec in (select sample_text from tmp)
loop
htp.prn ( chr(230) || rec.sample_text || utl_tcp.crlf);
end loop;
-- Send an error code so that the rest of the HTML does not render
HTMLDB_APPLICATION.g_unrecoverable_error := TRUE;
END;
How can I save characters with ascii codes from 128 - 256 into the output file? If I use chr() function, characters are missing in the output file.
Platform: Apex 4.2 on apex.oracle.com

Hi 1010398,
Some thoughts:
I assume you've counted the characters in the output and/or used a "hex" text editor so you KNOW these characters are not being written. Are they not written at all, or are blanks being substituted or are NULLs being substituted?
I couldn't find much documentation on htp.prn. Though, one place I found
htp.prn (cbuf IN VARCHAR2 CHARACTER SET ANY_CS DEFAULT NULL);Do you suppose it's affected by the character set used?
