ASCII to binary conversion

Does anyone knows how to convert the ASCII value to binary? For example
ASCII 'U' to 01010101?

Hi,
If I understood you correctly, you want to convert a character eg:'U' to
its ASCII value which is 85 (in binary representation 01010101).
With the following method you can convert the first character of a string to
a one byte long unsigned integer.
method BaseClass.CharToInt(input pStr: Framework.string): Framework.ui1
begin
return *(pointer to ui1)(*(pointer to pointer)(&pStr));
end method;
See also the attached .pex file for some more, usefull little methods...

Sending text (ASCII) as binary code. Beginner.

Hello there LV-gurus.
My mission is basically being able to send information one bit at a time and since I have no background knowledge it is a tedious process figuring out how to do so. I'm not asking for complete solutions considering I want to actually learn it, but I am hoping I could get some pointers on what I should read up on or how to make this happen.
At my disposal I have a DAQmx, from which I hope to send binary information (or a digital wave) regulating a component that will basically just pass this information on to another (actually the same for now) DAQmx where I want to decode it back.
What I'm trying to do, but failing to understand how, is more or less this;
Convert ASCII to binary/digital wave. Here I've tried using the string to byte array but I'm having trouble to finding a way to use the values I get in the byte array.
How to incorporate a "start/stop listening" signal before/after sending the information.
I'm certain there is whole bunch of functions/procedures/whatnots I'm completely missing, so any help or friendly nudges in the right direction is much appriciated. My feeble attempts to scan through the plethora of instructions, help texts and posts relating to this matter has left me stumped.

So is this going to be continuos transmission of a stream of bits that emulate a maintained connection or bursts of data transmission followed by long periods of zeros? Square wave is not really going to be helpful for transmitting data considering the effort required to start/restart/stop the square wave would cause significant slow down, especially if you want to transmit real data and not just varying frequency square waves.
You should simply be able to start off converting your data into a digital waveform then passing that data through a DAQmx Write command (Digital Wfm>1 Chan>1 Samp).
Assuming you want to be able to read this information as well you can simply read the data using a DAQmx Read command configured similarly to compare the output and inputs.
For most of your data configuration set up you will want to have a look around the Waveform -> Digital Wfm
The conversion menu should hold some VIs of interest regarding generating the waveform data.
For the data transmission I would say looking at the "Digital - SW - Timed Output.vi" in the example finder would help a lot.
(Example finder is found under Help -> Find Examples)

Converting ASCII as Binary... Transposed?

Hello friends!
I am building a VI to break apart a string of characters and convert each to binary code. Please see the attached example. When verifying the input string against the output boolean array, I notice that each 8bit code is transposed from left to right when compared against any standard ASCII to Binary table. Am I understand that binary is usually read from right to left? My concern is how other systems will translate this code after it is transferred. The main question is this: Do I leave it be, or transpose it before data transfer?
Any advice or comments would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Zach
Solved!

Remember you are looking at an array. Index 0 of an array (which corresponds to bit 0 of the number) will be to the left. As long as you are just doing standard computer functions and bit manipulations, don't worry about it.
If you are doing something where you want to graphically show on the front panel to a user what the bits look like and have the 0th bit on the right, then you will need to manipulate the array so that the 0th bit will be in index 7 and the 7th bit will be in index 0, and so on.

Converting ASCII to Binary

Hello I need some help.
I need to convert the ASCII data to Binary form. Like if i have the character 'A' and its ASCII is 65 then its binary would be 01000001.
If there is any function/method available in java to convert ascii to binary, i would be really thanful.

Binary Conversion of file in Emigall(why)

Can any one tell me what is the purpose of converting the file to binary before loading through EMIGALL?Why is it necessary?I have checked the file On application server in the directory where file after binary conversion is placed.I was expecting it to be in binary format i mean combination of 0's and 1's.But it was not.So can anyone please elaborate.
Thanks

Hi Arya
Very strange question.
There's only one valid file format for the EMIGALL upload files at the moment, so obviously the file has to match that particular format.
Not absolutely sure why we chose this file format instead of a delimited TXT file (it was a very long time ago), two things spring to mind:
Inclusion of "special" characters in the content, that could also be used as column delimiter, without compromising the file layout
Incorrect file layout, like missing or additional columns compared to the EMIGALL customising, easier to identify and more likely to fail
Please note, I don't want to start a discussion here why one format is better than another. Simply accept it, it's not a big deal and move on.
I am certain your file is in binary format, you only use the wrong editor to display the file
Yep

Binary conversion of a big image leads to "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError"?

Hi,
My program loads a black and white 1 bit depth image of around 20 - 30mb. When I try to convert it to binary image, it gives the following error: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap spaceI am converting a bufferedimage to binaryimage. I used the following conversion method:
// This method converts an image to a binary image:
     public static BufferedImage convert (BufferedImage src, int type)
          int w = src.getWidth ();
          int h = src.getHeight ();
          BufferedImage dst = new BufferedImage (w, h, type);
        Graphics2D g = dst.createGraphics ();
        g.drawRenderedImage (src, null);
        g.dispose ();
          return dst;
     }The program was working well before but now it keeps giving the heap memory error which is really weird. Is there any way I can fix this? Can anybody suggest a better way to convert a black and white image to binary data. Thanks.

You could increase maximum memory (-Xmx): [http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/windows/java.html]

ASCII to XML conversion

LS,
I've been asked to check whether OWB can be used as a conversion tool for ASCII into XML.
I've found some references of OWB being capable of reading XML sources, but haven't found concrete answers about XML output.
Is it possible to use OWB to access an ASCII flat file (as an external table for instance) and then map the read data to an XML output file?
Thanks, Patrick

Patrick,
There are no specific features for converting ASCII files into XML, but OWB could be used for this purpose since it does write to file targets. The mapping would read from the ascii file as a source (you could use external tables for this, for example), perform the logic inside the map (wrap data in XML tags, etc.) and then target the output file. You could even use DB tables as XML containers / staging areas.

JMS Adapter binary conversion error

I am getting an MQ message. The message has / embedded when it is picked by JMS Adapter. Because the message content has /, JMS is stripping the message. Is there anyway to get the whole message into XI from JMS without the message getting stripped.

FTP Transport - ASCII vs Binary mode

I need to receive both ASCII files and Binary ( simple Pass thru) files into Oracle B2B using FTP. Also I need to send out ASCII files and Binary files using FTP to our different trading partners. How do I specify the mode of FTP as ASCII for one trading partner delivery channel vs Binary for another trading partner delivery channel? Is there an obvious parameter I am missing in the transport configuration? I would appreciate any help
Thanks

Which data file format is better for storing setup information? XML, ASCII or Binary?

Hello,
Our application is using cluster, string, Integer and other data types and storing them in ASCII files. We are using flatten to string function and storing it to the text file. However, going ahead we want to migrate to XML file format. Is it a good idea? What would be the pros and cons?
Thanks.

If you are using LabVIEW's Flatten to String function, you are storing your data as binary, even if you are sending a string to the file writer.
The issues you will run into using this method or any of the canned LabVIEW XML VIs: If your data type changes, your files can't be read in any more. You mentioned you have clusters. If you add an element or take one away, the old files won't be read in anymore. You would have to store old versions of the data type and file reader and then convert the old data type to the new data type.
The nice thing about OpenG's INI functions is they take variant's, so you can pass complex data structures and it will write the file. If the data type changes, as long as it can be coerced into the format, it will still be read in. If you pass a cluster and a value is missing from the INI, the default is used. If there is an extra value in the INI, it's just skipped. So, your reader and writers can be updated without as much concern about supporting old data files.
One method you can do if you want to use binary is the "TLD" method. TLD stands for Type, Length, Data. I use an enum for the Type. The Length is just the length of the Data which follows, and then the data is the binary data. If I change a data type, then I create a new enum value (always has to be added to the end of the list to maintain value consistency with the old files). This way, the reader can still handle the old data type and convert it into the new data type in whatever method is necessary. It can also completely ignore it if desired. I usually process clusters as individual items so I don't have to save old versions of the cluster. It works quite well and only adds a few bytes per data item. The big caveat is you have to remember to update your file writer and reader whenever you change a datatype or add a new value.

To store ASCII into Binary

I just want to store a large set of numbers.when i did it..the file is too big to open.is about 100 MB.
its in ASCII ,now i have to convert it into binary files..can anyone help me.

Well, if it is now too large to open you cannot convert the existing ASCII file , instead you should modify your application to write a new one in binary. Presumably, later you also need to have a way to read the binary file back into another LabVIEW application.
Open the example finder in LabVIEW 6.1 and look at the following two examples:
Write Binary File.vi
Read Binary File.vi
They are both in section "Fundamentals ... File Input and Output". Let us know of you get stuck .

Binary conversion

when converting a integer to binary using Integer.toBinaryString, the leading zeros are removed. Is there a way to keep the leading zeros in the conversion?
any help would be appreciated!
thanks

when converting a integer to binary using
Integer.toBinaryString, the leading zeros are removed.
Is there a way to keep the leading zeros in the
conversion?if by integer you mean int you never had the leading
zeros in the first place ... other that legosa's way, you could be
a bit sneakier, and do:String thirty2 = Integer.toBinaryString(2);
int length = thirty2.length();
String temp = "00000000000000000000000000000000" + thirty2;
thirty2 = temp.substring(length, 32 + length);
System.out.println(thirty2.length() + ": " + thirty2);

KNOWING WHETHER IT IS ASCII (OR) BINARY

I get different types of files into my Java program that needs to know whether a given file is binary or ASCII. I cannot depend on the extensions because there are a lot of non-standard ones. Is there a way how I can know whether a file is just ASCII text or is it in binary form?

I am trying to compare two flat files both of which need to just contain ascii or unicode words separated with tabs (or someother delimiter). Before doing so, I just want to check the partial content of both the files that none of them, by accident, is a binary file.

ASCII (SYMBOLS & CHARACTERS) Conversion to Telephone numbers

I am using oracle Release 9.2.0.7.0 and I am trying to access a database containing telephone numbers and codes, the table contains two columns with the names no and code both are VARCHAR2 column datatype. As you can see below the values in these two columns are ASCII characters and symbols. I tried to save the SQLPLUS query (select no, code from subdata) into a a file using spool command but the Ascii symbols and characters have being changed into some other format I am not familiar with I will show it below. Therefore is there a function that can help me to convert the ascii codes into the telephone numbers without doing any import or export, an embedded SQLPlus function will help me very much.
This is a sample of the current table containing the ASCII codes:

Help with binary conversion project

hey my assignment was to make a program that would say the binary representation of an int. i got my program working and im pretty sure it works for all negatives and 0. my question is can you guys help me with a way to do the same steps with for( or while( ? it seems like i went the long way doing this project and even tho it works theres probably a much simpler way of going about it. theres no interface or anything we just change the value of N and recompile it and run from command prompt so far in our class. thanks for the help
