Can I have the user enter a variable to be used in Signal Express?

We are looking to use Signal Express to collect data from load cells and analog sensors. We would like the user to be able to enter a variable that the Signal Express program can act on. Is this possible within Signal Express?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Actually, I just found another way that you could perform this task when using the formula node.  What you have to do is create a DC analog signal, bind the variable to the offset parameter and then implement this into the forumla node.  I attached a screenshot below for your reference.  You will have to enable the created DC waveform in the formula node to reference.  Hope this helps!

  • How can I have the user input two things to get result

    Hi
    I am trying to produce an interactive slide where the user will input two items and then receive the result.
    The easiest way to describe what I am hoping to do is..........
    Imagine the multipllication table and the user has to input what he wants to mulitiply ie 3 in the first text entry box and 5 in the next presses the button and the result is shown.
    Now imagine the table isn't a mathematical table but a series of words across the x and y axis. The user inputs Word A, Word B and presses submit and the answer (another word) depending on the two inputs appears. There would be 12 x12 table so 144 different combinations.
    Is this possible in Captivate 7?
    thanks
    Ruth

    HI
    There is little relationship between the two, this isn't actually the table but the same principle and shows what I am trying to acheive.

  • How can i have the captions in Spanish on the form, even though user is English user?

    Hello Experts,
    My requirement is,
    I am launching the form back end ERP system's app, where in i have screen, wherein user will enter the employee # on the first/home screen's input field then as a next step the form will be launched on the IE browser together with the employee details. Now user has a chance to change the details on the form.
    Initially the user logs into the system and gets into the intranet, by this moment system knows about the user's logged in languge because we are maintaiing the user/employee master records in the system
    Now, say for example User_1 has English as logged in langauge, and user also want to see the form's labels/captions in ENGLISH when the form is rendered on the IE browser
    Now, say for example User_2 has English as logged in langauge, but user want to see the form's labels/captions in SPANISH when the form is rendered on the IE browser, pls. let me know how to achieve this?
    But, the form is only one (bcz of licensing company bought only one form)
    Thank you

    Thank you
    I have a home/initial screen, where i i have 2 fields, 1st is for Employee # and the 2nd is meant for LANGUAGE, here the user enters the Employee # and the the language name in which the user want to see the captions/labels of the about to launch form
    Pls. let me know

  • HT4847 Can I have multiple users's family devices backed up to the cloud e.g. 2 iPhones and 2 iPads under the same iTunes account

    Just got a second iPad for the home.
    Can I have multiple users's family devices backed up to the cloud e.g. 2 iPhones and 2 iPads under the same iTunes account?

    Yes, but it's not usually recommended to share an iCloud account within a family.  If you do, any data you sync with iCloud will be merged and you, for example, will end up with each other's contacts and calendars on your devices.  Also, any action taken on one device (such as adding or deleting a contact) will be replicated on the other devices.  You will also all be sharing the same 5GB of free storage for all your data and device backups.
    Normally it's best to use separate iCloud accounts for each person's devices.  This will keep your data separated, and allow each person to have their own free 5GB of storage.  You can continue to share the same iTunes ID within the family; the ID you use for iCloud does not need to be the same as the one your use for iTunes purchasing.  (Each person should also use a separate ID on their devices for iMessage and FaceTime to avoid getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.)

  • How can I have multiple users on iTunes (in order to connect to a shared office iPad)?

    How can I have multiple users on iTunes (in order to connect to a shared office iPad)? Currently each of us has our own iTunes account, so I've made an "all office" Apple ID. However, I can't seem to get two different accounts (my personal and the office) to work on my machine. Even when I login as "the office", my personal library is still showing. Additionally, when I try to setup with a first-time use in iTunes, I get an error that I don't meet the minimum age requirement - no matter what birthdate I enter!

    The library exists regardless of which user is logged in.
    The only way around that is to create different user accounts on the computer.
    There is no way to have 20 unique iTunes users access a shared iTunes under a single login on the computer.

  • How to get the user entered data?

    Hi all,
    I have created an HTMLB DynPage component.
    In That i have created my input screen with textboxes using response.write method.
    i have added one onConfirm event on which the data whould validate.
    so onConfirm method im trying to get the data with request.getParameter method which returns null...
    how to do...how to get the user entered data to do my validations...can anyone plz advice.
    Thanks,
    Viswes

    Hi
    inputfield or textbox component entered directly using response.write(...) are not htmlb , but html.
    to create portal input field (ie HTMLB), you should do something like
    this in the doProcessBeforeOutput member function
    InputField field1 = new InputField("Id1");
    field1.setSize(8); // 8 characters
    this.getForm().addComponent(field1);
    and in doProcessAfterInput member function
    InputField field1 =
    (InputField) this.getComponentByName("Id1");
    you can then manipulate the content of the field.
    Hope this help,
    Guillaume

  • How to keep a calculation field blank until the user enters a number?

    I am building a sales sheet for a school that sells scrip as a fund-raiser. I have the document set so that when the user enters the number of scrip certificates he wants (say, two $25 gift certificates at Lowe's), the program will automatically calculate that this user owes $50 for that scrip category. However, there are more than 100 companies that one can choose from, and if the user doesn't enter a number, the calculated field shows $0. Is there a way that each field can stay blank until the user enters a number bigger than zero? By the way, I'm using this calculation to determine the value (borrowed from a user on this forum): event.value = 50 * this.getField("Lowes").value
    Thanks!

    There are two approaches. You can either add the following Validate script:
    // Custom Validate script for calculated field
    if (+event.value !== 0) event.value = "";
    Or you can change your custom Calculate script and set the Format type of the field to "None":
    // Custom Calculate script
    (function () {
        var v = +getField("Lowes").value;
        event.value = (v !== 0) ? util.printf("$%.2f", v) : "";

  • Form A calling Form B, can I prompt the user for parameters?

    I'm in the learning curve for Oracle Forms. I have one form that is little more than a menu of buttons that each call other forms. Let's say for the sake of argument that I have a button marked "Quarterly Report". I believe I have to put a call_form('quarterly_rpt_parms.fmx') on that button. The quarterly_rpt_parms form would just be plain with a single field the user fills in (quarterly ending date) and another button that issues a call_form('quarterly_rpt_view.fmx').
    Is there a built in method of prompting the user for that date, rather than create a separate form just for that purpose?
    Thanks in advance,
    Darren

    You can very easily put a prompt for the date on the top line of your Quarterly Report form, or you could put it in the form, but on a separate canvas, which would show only when the form starts. Once the user enters the date and clicks the report button, you could show the report canvas and hide the input canvas.
    ...and you don't need the '.fmx' in the call_form.

  • Add WHERE criterias in addition to what the user enters on search page

    Hi,
    This may be a simple problem, but I have not been able to solve it.....Is there a way for me to code another search criteria in addition to what the user enters?
    I'm trying to create a simple search page. Basically, user logs on, i get his acoount number and save it in a variable. Then whatever the user's search criterias are , I want to add "AND ACCOUNT = ???."
    I've tried:
    In the processRequest, retrieve his account number using a VO, stored account number in variavle x and then call a initQuery(x) for the VO to get only the rows that he should be able to see. Problem A: I get 'SQLStmtException' when I test the page by trying to do a Simple Search. So to fix that, in the VOImpl, I added these two calls -- setWhereClauseParams(null); setWhereClause(null); -- after the executeQuery(). After I did this, ran into Problem B: the user could search any record that wasn't associated with his account.
    I also tried to dynamically create the vo using createViewObjectFromQueryStmt("Select * from table where account = " + x) but was not successful. The page didn't render and I received a ClassCastException similar to this thread -- Re: How to Create OAViewObject programatically
    I'm new to OAF and would appreciate any pointers on how to implement this.
    Thanks,
    LL

    Hi,
    I assume that you haven't tried the following steps..if you have and still get an error, give us the SQL statement error that is coming up. If I misunderstood your requirement, could you elaborate.
    I assume that when the user logs in you get the account number automatically.
    You could define the VO to have the following where condition 'WHERE ACCOUNT=:1'.
    Then you set the account id from the user using setWhereClauseParams(0,accountid) and call executeQuery. This would limit the result to that user.
    This will work in addition to any other search fields that might have been used in the query.
    For e.g with just the account id the sql that will be fired is
    Select attribute1, attribute2....from Tablexxx where account = :1
    Any other user search criteria given in the page will result in a ssql query like the following
    select * from (Select attribute1, attribute2 ...from Tablexx where accoount = :1) where newattribute like `%xx`
    Hope this helps. Let us know if you still have issues.
    Thank you,

  • How can I have multiple users on one apple id?

    How can I have multiple users on one apple ID?
    ie: I have my apple ID with my own credit, how can I set up credit for my son under the same apple ID, so that he can still access the same apps I've already downloaded and paid for?

    I've been trying to figure out a clean way to do this too. I think you may need more than one Apple ID – one that is shared and used to purchase "sharable" items and then "individual" Apple IDs for you and your son. That's the idea that I'm pursuing for the moment.
    It seems that there must be a way to do this, App Store purchases for the Mac are licensed across multiple machines. iPhone app purchases have "all your devices" licensing. Makes me think that Apple has a process in mind for sharing an account (or associating a device with multiple accounts).
    Other things I've learned:
    - Apparently you can't merge Apple ID accounts. I asked about this once at an Apple Store and was told that there was no way to do it.
    - If you share an Apple ID the Messages app behaves in a somewhat surprising manner. It must use your Apple ID to decide where messages should be sent because all users get all messages. This can make it very hard to organize a surprise party :-)

  • How can I move the user home folder from server to the mac

    I have a mac mini which i use for OpenDirectory, DNS and email. It is not a big installation it is for my wife and I.
    My wife logs in using an network account, and the user folder is saved on the mac mini. This gives me a few problems.
    a. If the server is upated and restarted, my wife has to relogin, or sometimes reboot the imac to get acces to the email etc.
    b. Having the home folder on a mac mini is causing the imac to be very slow
    c. Itunes can't synchronize to her Iphone. Connecint it gives her a message that synchronization has been turned off, and if i try to turn it on I get an error message saying somthing about shared access to the user folder.
    I do not use a network account and have none of these problems.
    So I have decided to try to put her user folder on the imac instead of on the server..
    But how do I do that?
    I still wan't her to use the network user account, but the user folder should be on her imac.
    Kind Regards
    Henrik

    I do not think you can move migration assistant for this situation.
    The mac mini is a osx snow leopard server, running openDirectory, DNS and E-mail, so its not like she is logging into the server.
    Her imac is bound to the OpenDirectory and she uses an openDirectory network user account to log in on her imac.
    But the user folder is saved on the server, which is very nice if you have a bigger server with faster disks, and more mac clients to log into.
    But in this situation she only uses her imac, and the performance of having the user folder on the server is not good enough, as well as the other problems I have with itunes sync etc.
    So I do not think it's a job for the migration assistant.
