AS2 monitoring issue

Hi Gurus,
we use an AS2 adapter from seeburger and now there are some messages (in seeburger adapter monitor) in status "Waiting for delivery-, receipt- or both reports". Which is probably, that message has been sent successfully, just we haven't received the MDN.
How can I find out, which are these messages in SXMB MONI? Is there some correlation between XI message ID and seeburger ID?
thank you,
olian

Hi,
Take thr Correlation ID from the Seeburger message monitor and search in SXMB_MONI.
SXMB_MONI -> Advanced serch Criteria-> Message ID.
cheers
Ramesh

  • Trouble with color on Presario, No red tones on display. Not a monitor issue.

    Am experiencing trouble with color on Presario, model no. CQ5500F. Purchased a couple of years ago, and trouble was present immediately. Am getting no red tones - red items appear black or sometimes blue. Was told by HP that it was a monitor issue, and let computer slide out of warranty. installed new monitor today and problem still exists. Is this merely a display adjustment of some kind? Or will I have to pay HP their $99 for a one time fix? Any suggestions appreciated.

    Hello UncleBob62,
    It could be the display driver that is not properly working
    1. Click on the start icon
    2. Right click on computer and go to properties
    3. Select Device Manager
    4. Expand display adapters and right click on the video card driver and uninstall
    The computer screen will go blank
    On the keyboard press the windows key the right arrow key twice and then the letter R.
    At this point your computer is going to reboot. After the reboot Windows will install generic drivers for your video card. Do you still see a lack of red tones?

  • Multiple Monitor Issue

    Alright, so I have a 15" Macbook Pro with the dual graphics cards (GeForce 9600M GT and GeForce 9400M GT 256 version). It's the 2.66 intel processor one. Anyway, I've been trying to figure out this dual monitor issue that I've been having for a few days now. When I'm using the 9400M card and I plug into my mini displayport everything works just fine. This includes the VGA cord, the HDMI, as well as a standard Apple monitor. Now, when I switch over to the higher end graphics card, as soon as I plug into the mini displayport my screen goes black. And that's it. I can't do anything. I have to hold the power button down until the computer turns off.
    I've been searching for days in order to find an answer to this question or if anyone has ever had a similar problem and no one could help me. I even went to the genius bar and no one could help either. Keep in mind I've tried this in a variety of ways. I've plugged the monitor in after the computer was running, I've had it plugged in while the computer was turning on, and each time after the initial boot up everything goes black.
    To make matters worse, I originally came across this issue because I use Windows 7 on bootcamp and I wanted to use dual monitors within Windows. Bootcamp is only set to use the 9600M graphics card which is the one giving me all the heartache and apparently there's no way around it. If anyone has the slightest clue as to what's going on here or why it would be doing such a thing, let me know. Thanks.

    Jon: Thanks for answering those questions. Run the Apple Hardware Test that you'll find on one of the DVDs that came with your MBP. If any errors are reported, go back to the Genius Bar with the error codes reported by AHT and ask to have the machine repaired.
    If you have extended AppleCare protection, you have a TechTool Deluxe CD/DVD. You can also use that to test your hardware. If it reports any errors, take the exact wording and error codes from that report along with you to the GB, too.
    The problem is not with your three external displays or your cables, adapters, or your MBP's mini-Displayport, because they all work fine with the 9400M. The problem isn't some wrong contact that's being made momentarily as you insert the mini-Displayport plug into the port, because it occurs even when the cable is securely connected before starting up the computer. It seems to me the problem must reside either in your 9600M GT or in its connection to the mini-displayport.

  • Graphics card issue or monitor issue?

    Hello, i have a MacPro 2.66 w/ an ATI x1900 and a MacBookPro with th nVidia 8600
    i recently purchased a 28" Hanns-g Display which i upgraded from my 20" apple cinema display, im curious if this could be a graphic issue or a monitor issue:
    When i connect the 28" monitor to my ATI card (port 1) and boot into 10.4.10 (macPro) i noticed diagonal lines that seem to "scroll" (like an overscan line or something) on greyish and lighter backgrounds.
    tried it with the second port, same thing, it does it on all resolutions
    (it runs @ 1920x1200).
    when i boot into XP and try the same sites i did in 10.4.10 it doesnt do it at all, its as it should.
    I tried both VGA>DVI and HDMI>DVI to the ATI on OSX but it only does it with the HDMI>DVI connection under OSX, VGA looks fine.
    (btw my ati card is clean as a whistle, no dust or anything)
    However if i plug it into my MacBookPRo with hdmi>DVI it doesnt do that at all.
    so im wondering probably incompatible monitor or what?
    im looking to getting a 30" Apple Display but not if its gonna act up like that on my macpro, none of this appeared on my ACD 20".
    any suggestions or tips?
    thanks!

    im not experiencing scan line son my 30" ACD display under OSX or XP with my ATI, could be the monitor you are using, but if its not doing it with your MBP than.....idk
    sonds strange, try another gfx card or another macpro if possible.

  • Playing off the Timeline via firewire( XdCam pal) Monitoring Issues

    Hey,
    I have just switched to FCP and have found that when recording the from the FCP timeline manually via firewire into a Sony XDCam PDW530 I experience 4:3 flashes in the Camera monitor and viewfinder as the timeline plays down Video Transitions. All effects have been rendered (Blue line above transition)
    However the Camera appears to record correctly to disc. I played the recorded material from the camera via an XD deck into a wide screen monitor and all appears fine the 4:3 flashes are not present on transitions. play the disc back in the camera and the 4:3 flashes for the duration of the Video Transitions return????
    when playing out of the Camera via SDI and Analogue Composite outputs into a wide screen monitor all appears ok as well.
    It's a little odd that you cannot monitor the output correctly on the XDcam. If i change the pull down settings from 2323 to 2332 it monitors the transitions correctly but the video aspect is somewhere between 4:3 and 16:9.
    Shoot in 16:9 Capture DV Pal, Edit DV Pal, Playback Output Apple FireWire Pal (720 x 576)
    Any ideas????

    Thanks Shane,
    We have been down the PRINT TO VIDEO road with the same playback issues in the XD Camera's LCD screen. We still see the 4:3 transition on the 16:9 image when playing off the timeline / playing back the recorded media in the camera and viewing on cameras screen .
    I guess this is only a monitor issue. If you don't include any video effects it plays down 16:9 perfectly in the cameras monitor
    What is recorded onto the disc is fine.
    Also my understanding is the what's coming off the timeline is a DV stream so not sure how the GOP format comes into play. Recording onto a XD Cam off the timeline thru other edit programmes has never been an issue. I have come from Avid Pinnacle and the monitoring of transitions was never an issue when streaming back to the xdcam.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    I have Dell Venue 11 Pro (7130/7139).
    I have installed “Dell Tablet Dock FW Update  0.41.23, A03” http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=97N0V  (previous version was Version 0.41.19, A02).

    I have restarted system, disconnected / reconnected power from “Dell Tablet Dock” – nothing helped.
    I tried to revert to previous version  0.41.19, A02, but the installation process requires monitors to be connected to “Dell Tablet Dock”. But they are connected, system simply do not see them!
    Could you help me with this issue or with advice, hot to force previous version 0.41.19, A02 installation (to ignore monitor connection check)?

    Hi,
    I had almost the same problem. I used Dell Venue 11 Pro (7130/7139) with Dock and NEC MultiSync LCD 1770 NX through HDMI-DVi cable. There were no probs while tablet was on, however when it was sleeping or off the NEC MultiSync LCD 1770 NX permanently (each 2-3 seconds) showed the sign that there were no input signal. It was not critical for me, however it was one more my disappointment in Dell new products (I have used Dell latitude D620 and dock for 7 years without any problems, thats why I chose Dell Venue 11 Pro, assuming that the Dell quality remains the same... I was wrong, Dell Venue 11 Pro has too much loose ends).
    Yesterday I updated Dock firmware to “Dell Tablet Dock FW Update  0.41.23, A03” and Dell lost NEC. I.e. the monitor was connected, but the tablet just did not want to see it or recognise. I connected dock to another monitor Samsung SyncMaster 226CW (took from my friend) through the same HDMI-DVI cable and found that it is working with it. So I decided to downgrade the Dock firmware to 0.41.19, A02 (the only previous version I found at dell support), however it was impossible with my NEC, as tablet didn't see it. I connected again the tablet to  Samsung SyncMaster 226CW which was recognised through the dock and successfully downgraded the firmware to 0.41.19, A02. Afterwards connected my old NEC MultiSync LCD 1770 NX and fortunately it was found by my Dell tablet and dock. Now it's working.

  • Mid 2013 Macbook Air External Monitor Issues

    I am running on 10.8.4 and am using a fully upgraded 2013 macbook air. i7, 8gb of ram, 512 ssd. Recently, I have been having issues connecting my computer to external displays. I have reset the PRAM, and the SMC multiple time with no luck. I have also deleted the windowserver plist files and that did not seem to do anything as well. The issue is as follows: when I plug in my laptop through the thunderbold port to the hdmi on my tv, the screen on my laptop goes blue, as normal, but then nothing shows up on my tv. I have used the same cable with my roomates macbook and it works just fine, on multiple tv's. Mine is not able to connect to any of those tv's. When looking at the display settings in system preferences, I do not see that it ahs detected any external displays. I am not sure what to do at this point.

    I think I have fixed it somehow. I reset the PRAM while the tv was plugged in and it worked, but it seems that something may be wrong with my video card, because there was a bunch of fuzziness and weird colors on my computer's monitor for a few seconds before everything went to normal

  • Windows 7 and Multiple Monitor Issues

    Alright, I have spent the past 3 days searching these forums as well as on Microsoft's support pages and all of Google to find the answer to my issue and it seems as though I'm the only one who is running into this problem.
    I have a 15 inch Macbook Pro with the GeForce 9600M GT Nvidia Graphics card with the latest version of Mac OSX and Bootcamp installed on it. I have Windows 7 installed in bootcamp. I just purchased a Mini DisplayPort to VGA cord with a VGA cord so as to connect my computer to my Sony Bravia HDTV to use as a second monitor. I plug in the cords, plug them into my TV, and put it into the proper input and it works like a charm. Then I go and boot up in bootcamp under Windows 7, plug in the cord, and my screen gets to the "starting windows" logo and then it goes black. I push ever button, I try control alt delete, nothing. I have to hold down the power button to turn off the computer and then turn it back on.
    I turn it on, boot up into Windows 7, let it load, then plug in the cord, and the computer display instantly goes black, again, and yet nothing displays on the TV. Again, I try everything to no avail, so I power it off and back on. I go through this at least 10 times to no avail. I finally give up and try again the next day.
    Next day, I plug it in, and the monitor stays up, but yet nothing is displayed on the TV. I go to my resolution settings in Windows, and go to the multiple monitors tab, and select every possible option (extend, duplicate, etc) and nothing will display on my TV. I try to change the settings to which it responds with "unable to save display settings" and nothing changes. I attempt to enter the nvidia program and make changes that way. The TV is detected, but when I select it and attempt to apply anything, no changes take effect and I am left with only the laptop display. Keep in mind I uninstalled and reinstalled all of the video drivers and such.
    Finally I get fed up so I purchase a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapted and a DVI to HDMI adapter. I try again. Again in OSX it launches immediately, no problems. I go back into Windows, and immediately I'm dealing with the instant black screen.
    I'm going crazy over here trying to figure this out. I know it's possible to do this because I've seen people on youtube doing this and again it works on OSX so why the heck won't it work? If anyone has any idea what's going on here please help me out. Thanks.

    JonMarx... I'm having the exact same problem. I'm in the exact same situation as you are. I'm going mad, and it's only by divine providence that I've finally located the only other person who knows what I've been going through. I've spent at least 20 hours trying to get this started back up, to no avail.
    I had the secondary display working peachy for a while, long enough to configure everything to be exactly how I wanted it. I unplugged the monitor from the computer just to see what would happen, and that's when the problems started. I managed to get it to work one last time for a brief period a few hours later, but the way it just clicked on made it feel too good to be true.
    I've had a wierd problem with a phantom display as well. The display will frequently show up as being available in both the nVIDIA panel and the windows settings, but if I apply the settings, they won't go through. I got a few screenshots of it the last time it happened.
    I was just about to reinstall windows completely, but it seems that I'll just run into the same problem again if I do... Here's to hoping a solution is found.

  • Dual monitor issue with 10.8 and Windows 7 (bootcamp)

    I've a read a lot of threads here about people having nightmare-ish problems after upgrading.  Thankfully, this isn't one of them, just a frustration that I'd like advice on.
    My system:  2010 13" MBP, 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8GB RAM, 320GB HD.  Work setup has external 17" Dell Widescreen monitor connected with VGA to miniDisplay adapter.  Home theater setup has 23" Dell monitor connected with HDMI to miniDisplay cable.
    I upgraded from 10.6.8 to 10.8, as I like to stay up to date and it seemed ML fixed many of the Lion issues.  After finding out Front Row is completely gone I just about reverted (my laptop doubles as my home theater control).  I found XBMC, and it works, sort of (anyone with news on whether Front Row will be returned to us, let me know!).
    Enough babbling, my issue:
    When I switch from bootcamp windows 7 back to OS X, my second monitor's resolution is all screwed up (very low) and the dock and menu bar are BOTH on the second (Dell 17") screen, though it's not in a mirror mode.
    Usually the dock is on the laptop screen, and the menu bar is on the second.
    All I have to do is unplug the miniDisplay port and plug it back in, but is there a setting I'm missing to keep me from having to do this?  Also, I've never used Windows at home, so I've never had to switch with the 23 inch monitor connected.  Don't really want to try as that system is working quite well right now.
    Thanks!
    -Rob

    It's NVidia GeForce 320M.
    Just checked the drivers page and the Mac side only lists up to 10.6.8
    Should I assume that the update needs to be on the Windows 7 side?  At one point last November I tried to update on the Windows side and it caused all sorts of **** on my system causing me to have to reinstall both OS X and 7.
    May be worth another try?

  • IDOC Monitoring issue - job BPM_DATA_COLLECTION* not running.

    Hi all,
    We are facing an issue with BPM "IDOC Monitoring" (under application monitoring), which we have setup to monitor Inbound and Outbound Idocs in 2 separate R/3 systems.
    In one system it works fine, and measured values are returned each time the monitor is set to run according to the specified schedule.
    However, for another R/3 system, the monitor has never run, even though the settings are identical in the monitoring setup.
    From reading the Interfaces Monitoring Setup guide, I found that this monitor depends on a job called BPM_DATA_COLLECTION* which runs in the monitored system. In the system where monitoring is functioning correctly, I can see this job is completing successfully at the time the monitor is set to run. All I find is completed jobs - no scheduled or released jobs present.
    However, for the system where the monitoring is not functioning, I found that this job is not running, but that the job is sitting in scheduled status instead.
    When I tested manually running the job in this system, it ran successfully, and in Solution Manager the monitor brought back the measured value, so the monitor only ran successfully when I manually ran the job in the monitored system.
    I read notes 1321015 & 1339657 relating to IDOC monitoring. 1321015 appears to be more relevant, yet it does not exactly describe my issue - it mentions the job BPM_DATA_COLLECTION* failing rather than just remaining in scheduled status which is what I see.
    Anyone else see this issue before?
    On a more general point - the standard BPM Setup guide doesn't really go into much detail on IDOC Monitoring, and makes no mention of what is happening in the background, i.e. the job BPM_DATA_COLLECTION* being created and run as per schedule. This info is found in a separate document "Interface Monitoring Setup Guide".
    Is there any single document which describes fully what happens both in the Solution Manager and the Monitored systems when BPM is activated? For example, to describe which monitors require jobs to be run, which monitors require additional setup in monitored system, etc? A document such as this which describes exactly the process flow for each monitor would be very useful in troubleshooting issues going forward.
    Thanks,
    John

    Hello John,
    most probably the user assigned to the corresponding RFC READ connection that connects SolMan with the backend system doesn't have proper authorization to release a job. That's why it is only created/scheduled but not released. Verify if the RFC user on the backend has the latest CSMREG profile assigned according to SAP note 455356.
    You can also check if the latest ST-PI support package is installed  on your backend system as the ST-PI usualy contain the latest definition of CSMREG.
    Best Regards

  • Monitor issues with Macbook Pro and Thunderbolt

    having issues getting my HP 2311 monitor to work on thunderbolt cable to DVI, help?
    It keeps freezing computer, or going blue screen.

    Concerning this comment:
    I know that neither the adapter nor the VGA cable have a problem since I connected the computer to my 1080p TV and it worked just fine...
    I would like to point out that 1080p has a lower pixel clock than will 1920 x 1200. So it could be the stability problem is only present when the pixel clock is at the high end of the range.
    You could return the adapter and try another. A new one might have better margins. Another thing you could try is to use a utility like SwitchResX to lower the pixel clock and see if stability improves.

  • External Monitor Issues - MacBook Pro +Acer

    Hello Everyone!!
    I currently have my new Macbook Pro hooked up to a Thunderbolt display and all is running well!  BUT, I also have a mid 2009 MBP that I am setting up with a new ACER S271HL monitor (one of their newer models) and I am having some "quality" issues.  The MBP is utilizing 8G of RAM with a 500G HD: approximately 400G available, running the most current version of LION with all updates and runs nicely.  I didn't have any connectivity issues using a new Startech mini-display port to HDMI adapter and a new Monster HDMI cable. The ACER monitor is one of the newest models with resolution of 1920x1080 and the MBP did not have any issues recognizing it and I have not had any problems with "setting it up"- all resolutions are supported and recognized and everything seems ok.  I began by using MAC's Color Sync Utility and customized the monitor profile.  Then I did some fine tweaking with the monitor controls themselves - no issues.  The PROBLEM is that it just doesn't look good!!!! The text is not sharp in any document, browser tabs, content, etc. - the whole thing is kind of dull?! Video is ok at best - but again, not sharp.  So, I tried the Color Synch Utility again and had a second person set up a profile just to make sure I'm not going crazy?! - same result?!  I tried a different HDMI cable (new) - same result.  I tried a different mini-display to HDMI adapter - same result.  I reset the SMC and the PRAM - same result?!?!  I tried moving the monitor to another location to see if it was just the light and my eyes - no good.  I switched to a mini-display to DVI adapter/cable - same result. NOW, the thing that is really bothering me here is that my office uses older ACER monitors - discontinued V213H - I have three set up with an "older" DELL PC (no hot- rodded graphics/video card - standard, boring, office PC) and they LOOK GREAT?!?! So, I hooked my office laptop up to the new ACER monitor I bought and it LOOKED GREAT!?!?!  (with NO CONFIGURATION) I even used an old ratty VGA cable and it looked SO much better!?!?  I took the MBP to the office and hooked it up the work monitors and it only looked ok - better than on the new display, but still not sharp!?  
    So then I tried the driver route...ACER actually has a specific APPLE disclaimer of sorts on their support page indicating, that although their monitors are configured to work with all current computer models, that are tested in a PC environment and you may encounter issues that should be addressed with APPLE?!  Even though the monitor drivers I had are listed as the most current, I tried downloading them anyway - the MBP downloads them, but cannot install them because they are not recognized?!?  (All the support documentation, installation CD, etc. that came with the monitor was not recognizable by the MAC either)
    SO - does anyone else have similar issues with ACER monitors?? Know of anyone else that might???  I can't hook up the MBP to the Thunderbolt display to really rule out a problem - but I'm confident this is not a hardware issue with any of the components.
    I hate to give up on this because I'm setting it up for a friend so I figure I'll give it a few more days and see what kinds of ideas others might come up with before I throw in the towel and take this sucker back!
    Thanks for reading my 'novel' of a post - any ideas are greatly appreciated!!!
    TL

    i had the same problem, i solved it by buying a more higher end "hdmi to vga" wire, i 1st bought a cheap conversion wire "hdmi to vga" from a slow boat from china via Amazon and it didn't work on my macbook but seems to be working well on my windows laptop.
    so i bought another conversion wire via Amozon "hdmi to vga" from a company called Sewell Quirts in a 10' version.... now my mac mirrors or extend my laptop monitor, hope this helps.
    and its not a "file" issue like everyone else says in here.
    and my acer monitor is an older one with only a dvi and vga inputs.... using it to extend my 2014 macbook pro retina.

  • Server 2012 Dual Monitor Issue - Can't Get it to work properly.

    I have a HP Proliant ML310e that runs Server 2012 R2. It came with an on-board VGA graphics adapter, that was using a Microsoft Basic Display Adapter driver and working fine.
    Needing to run dual monitors, I contacted HP and purchased a Nvida K2000 PCIE graphics card. I installed it using their latest drivers and rebooted, making sure that the new PCIE card was enabled in the BIOS.
    While booting, the server actually now displayed on the new 'second' monitor connected to the newly installed Nvida card. When I actually logged in and went into the display properties, it was only detecting the new display - I couldn't even force detect
    the original display.
    Also, when I go into device Manger, it now only shows the Nvidia graphics adapter - no longer shows that the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter is present.
    Any advice on how to get dual monitors to work on Server 2012. I did try the Windows/P Projector display, but that did nothing.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    You should check your BIOS settings - some motherboard will disable onboard display card once a PCI(E) card is plugged in. This is a hardware settings issue. If  HP support is available, ask them for detailed configuration steps. 
    If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

  • Macbook Pro w/ 30 inch Dell monitor issue SOLVED

    I was amazed at the huge problems Apple apparently had with the bizarre $99 adapter that enables 30 inch dual channel display for the new Mini Displayport machines, including the current Macbook Pros. The reports of problems here were terrible, and I frankly waited six months or more to buy my next machine because of these problems -- Apple should be more careful about products like this.
    I'm happy to report that the Mini Displayport to Displayport cable from Monoprice works GREAT with my Dell 30 inch monitor (the current one, I can't find the number since it's hidden on the back but it's the current model they sell). Fully compatible in both Mac and Windows, video seems fine, and no issues that affect display quality. The only issue I have noticed is, when the monitor goes to sleep and I wake it up again on the Mac side, it displays strange lines. Any change in monitor color or resolution causes this to go away, so all I have to do is go to 16 bit color and back again. On top of everything, the cable is dirt cheap.
    Here it is:

    Ok. But, what have you solved?
    First off, the 'huge problems' that you mention pertain to the Apple mini-DisplayPort to Dual Link DVI adapter. There's nothing 'bizarre' about that adapter - it allows you to connect a display requiring a dual-link DVI (i.e. up to 2560x1600) to your MBP. Those issues were not really that common (judging frequency of problems by reading these forums is like judging human health by visiting an Emergency Room - you'd think most of the population was sick or injured). If you went by forum problem reports, you'd never buy any product.
    More importantly, the _cable you linked above is an entirely different product_, a mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable. It has nothing to do with DVI (note that Apple doesn't even make a mini-Dp to DP cable). If your display has a DisplayPort input (as the Dell 30" does) then it's fine. If your display has only DVI input (such as the Apple 30" Cinema Display), the cable you link is useless.
    But, although I find it utterly unsurprising that a mini-DP to DP cable will allow one to connect a mini-DP port on a computer to a DP port on a display, good to know that in that instance, the dirt cheap cable from Monoprice does the job.
