Can I measure 2 differential channels on a single SCC-SG24?

I am trying to use a single SCC-SG24 module to excite and measure the
output of 2 pressure transducers. The module is installed in the
ACh2 position of an SC-2345 carrier. When I configure the module
through 'custom voltage with excitation' in MAX, I can set the terminal
configuration of ai2 to differential. However, the other channel of the
module, ai10, can only be set to RSE or NRSE; the other options are
greyed out. I want both channels to be set to differential. Can I
configure the SCC-SG24 to measure 2 differential channels on a single
SCC-SG24? Thanks.

Hi,
I did a little looking into the DataSheet
for SCC Modules, and I found the following schematic.
As you can see there 2 instrumentation amplifiers that make it to where your measurements
are really differential, and then mapped to the NRSE lines in the
SC-2345. If you were to set up the DAQ board for differential it would
simply read the difference between one pressure transducer and the next.
Long story short, you set up the DAQ board for NRSE for all of the channels,
the SCC-SG24 makes it to where you are really taking a differential
measurement. Everything works quite simply in the end.

Can I measure with DAQ NI 6115 differential signals with a value of 0-5 V? ( ACH0-3 - is then outside the spec of +-2.5V)

I have to measure differential signals (0 to 5 V level). Unfortunately the maximum working voltage of the analog input channel of NI 6115 S-serie - is +-2.5 V. What will happen? Will the performance of the NI 6115 decreases? And - can I get an error when I connect fast signals to - (!), because the inputs are pseudodifferential?

Hello matops,
I don't think you should be running into any type of problem trying to measure a 0 to 5 V differential signal using the NI 6115. The maximum working voltage for the negative input is specified at +-2.5 V, meaning that you can have a maximum common mode voltage of 2.5 V in your measurement system. However, the maximum working voltage on the positive input is +-11 V or +-42 V, depending on your voltage range. If you are going to be going above this limit, then you may want to reconsider your measurement setup as you could damage the hardware.
Though pseudodifferential signals are usually composed of a signal on the - input that is slow to change, the 6115 is specified at a maximum sampling rate of 10MS/s, and thus I think it is going to be OK to co
nnect a fast signal to these inputs (depending on what your definition is of a fast signal).
Hope this helps.

I can't measure many signals at the same time using the DAQCard-AI-16XE-50.

I'm using a Compaq Presario 1655 laptop with a DAQCard-AI-16XE-50 on the PCMCIA slot, and LabVIEW 6i and MAX 2.0.
I have a SCXI-1001 Chassis with SCXI-1122 and its terminal block SCXI-1322 installed (I have others too).
I'm trying to measure some signals at the same time, for instance, measuring 2 load cells signals, and a frequency of an indutive sensor (using the analog way with the "Extract Single Tone Information.vi").
I realized that I can't measure at the same time my signals, neither the load cells - a 10608 error occurrs "NI-DAQ LV: No transfer in progress for the specified resource".
What's the problem?
Some DAQCard limitation? Configuration?
Thanks!

Hello;
By your description I'm assuming you are trying to read those analog inputs in parallel. The SCXI-1122 doesn't have that feature. All the analog inputs will be multiplexed to one single Analog Input channel on your DAQ board. If you need to make measurements in parallel, you need to use one of the SCXI modules that allows that operation. For more information on what modules support that operation, you can always refer to our home page at www.ni.com.

How can I measure the hertz in a wave form?

How can I measure the hertz in a wave form?

As an example, this is from BBC Technical Requirements for HD material:
3.1.1 Stereo line-up tones
All stereo tracks must use EBU 1KHz tone (left ident). All tones must be sinusoidal, free of distortion and phase coherent between channels.
Digital Audio Reference level is defined as 18dB below the maximum coding value (-18dBFS) as per EBU recommended practice R68.
See also:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/guidelines/dq/pdf/tv/tv_delivery_to_network_programmes_v1.2-2011.pdf
for full document.
And for BBC Radio:
Not every Network requires tone. Check the delivery requirements with the commissioning network or click here.
Reference tone, where used, should be at -18dBFS or PPM 4 on A, B and/or M.
If submitting material with reference tone, tone and programme material must be have been monitored and measured through the same technical chain. The level of the tone must be equivalent to 0dBu and no less than 8dB below peak audio level for the programme material.
THE LEVEL OF TONE MUST HAVE A KNOWN RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LEVEL OF THE PROGRAMME MATERIAL AND THIS MUST BE STATED; for example: “Tone at 8dB below peak programme level”.
As a newcomer to digital sound (my background is camera) I confess to being somewhat confused. We are normally told to record at the highest level possible. So for voice podcasts I tend to record at about -6dB below peak for maximum volume, distributeds on MP3 files.
But I can underatand that televison and radio especially for analogue transmission) may have limited headroom, hence the requirement for -18dB peak = 0dBM.
I remember when we first rented out Digital Betacam cameras, some recordists were recording almost everything OVER -18dBM.
I suspect that until we have an all-digital world, these requiremnents will still be in place.
Many thanks to all. It's a ghreat community!

Can I measure pulswidths with daqmx base and NI-USB6501

Can I measure pulswidths with daqmx base 1.4 and NI-USB6501? I can measure edges width this function: DAQmxBaseCreateCICountEdgesChan. But, when using DAQmxBaseCreateCIPulseWidthChan I always get an error message back (DAQmxBase Error: <err>Value passed to the Task/Channels In control is invalid).
I also cannot find any examples about this topic in the software on CD nor on the internet.
I also don't know what values to use for the float64 minVal and float64 maxVal arguments when using the pulse width function of above (see the NI-DAQ™mx Base 1.x C Function Reference Help).
Maybe my device (NI USB6501) cannot measure pulse width's and when it does measure pulse width's, what value will it give back? Seconds or ticks and what is the accuracy?
Ok, enough questions for now. Thank you in avance for answering.
D. Stollman

The USB-6501 counter is capable of falling edge edge counting
measurements only, so the type of measurement you wish to do is not
possible with that device. The data sheet for the USB-6501 can be
found at the following link:
http://www.ni.com/pdf/products/us/20054920301101dlr.pdf
I believe the DAQPad-6015 and DAQPad-6016 USB devices are capable of
measuring pulse width, as well as many of NI's PCI data acquisition
devices.

Trying to measure 2 channels of 5MHz TTL with E series board

Using E series MIO board, LabVIEW 7, trying to measure two ~5MHz TTL signals. (sequential is OK)
Do not (can not) use AO channel.
Desire to use signal routing VI (I think) but, examples and description of exactly how to do this is unclear.
An adaptation of 'measure frequency.vi' with addition of 'signal routing.vi' would probably be what I need.
Unless of course there is something simpler.

Using the 'measure frequency.vi' uses both counters on the MIO board, so you'll definitely have to measure the signals sequentially. By default, the example will measure frequency on the selected counter's default SOURCE pin (PFI8 for ctr0, PFI3 for ctr1). If you want to use the same example to measure on a different PFI line you can scroll to the left and change the 'Source Specification' cluster to your desired PFI line. All this said, if you have both of your signals connected to different PFI lines you shouldn't need to use the 'signal routing.vi'. After the first measurement you can just change the source selection and run again. Hope this helps.

How to place outbound files to multiple channels for a single agreement

Hi All,
We need to send single HIPAA 834 document to two different locations(channels) of the same TP. We have single HIPAA 834 agreement with one TP and one channel. is there a way to add two TP outbound channels for a single TP/agreement?
Thanks,
Kathar

Hi Kathar,
is there a way to add two TP outbound channels for a single TP/agreement?One TP may have multiple channels but one agreement can have only one associated channel. You may consider using the broadcast feature of Oracle B2B here.
You may read about this feature here -
https://blogs.oracle.com/oracleb2bgurus/entry/broadcast_feature_in_oracle_as
Please note that this blog was written for 10g but concept and implementation is same in 11g.
You need to create two TP profiles for same TP (you should use different name/identifiers for both) and then make them part of same group by adding identifier "Grouping" in both the profiles with same value. From middleware pass the header "Grouping:<value>" in action name or event name header. At runtime B2B will send the same message to both TP profiles.

Anuj

How can one change the channel of a screen control within Mainstage?

The issue that I'm having is that some 3rd party apps (Dimension Pro in particular) seem to receive Sustain (64) messages on only Midi Channel 1
I'm using a multi zone controller, with sounds set in MainStage to respond to different channels. I've got it all working well except . . Dimension Pro won't "see" a controller message if it's sent from any channel other than channel 1.
I was even having the same problem with certain sounds in Kontakt.
So the question is . . how can one shift the channel of these messages over to channel 1?
Better question, how can I get Dimension Pro to respond to a controller on a channel other than 1, but I suspect this is not the forum for such questions!
Thanks in advance,

You may be able to achieve the desired results by a different method. I have an Axiom, but I don't assign zones in it. I just send one zone to Mainstage and handle it all there. You can layer and or split a practically unlimited number of instruments and assign screen controls easily. You probably want to set up all screen controls at the concert level in layout mode. You can later override concert mapping in individaul patches if you want. For instance, you could use an expression pedal for volume(7) on one patch and for modulation(1) on another patch. You can send that control to one instument channel strip or you can choose to send to all. To do this, select a screen control in edit mode. In the screen control inspector, check the overide concert mapping box. You will then see two additional tabs-mappings and unmapped. Select the mappings tab. In the mapping list, double-click "Unmapped". You can the map the screen control to any single instrument channel strip in this list or send to all. Select one and then choose a mapping destination. If you want to map expression to one instrument and not others there's another way. Select an instrument channel strip, then selct MIDI input in the software channel strip inspector. Check the filter expression box. This instument will now not respond to expression, but the other intruments in this patch will. You can filter some other events on this page. The layer editor tab allows you full control ol splits and layering options of all your instruments in this patch. Hope this helps.

How can i measure the speed of the fan in sound and vibration signal simulator box

how can i measure the speed of the fan in sound and vibration signal simulator box
provided the values tach out:2 pulses/revolution and maximum speed = 6000rpm

Hi. I tried your suggestion and I could not get it to work well. In
fact it worked better without the running average (which suprised me).
I also played with the number of data points but still could not get it
to work well.
Do you have any other suggestions on how I could sort this problem out?
I
have attached a screen shot of the signal. To recap, I'm trying to
measure the'y' position of the flat regions of the signal. The signal
does not have a constant level, so this 'y' position varies with time
in a non-unform manner.
I am currently differentiating
the signal and selecting the y position when the differential is equal
to zero (within a tolerance band).
In the screenshot, the
signal has been zeroed using the method I have described above.
However, it occasionally has glitches which may be caused when the code
picks up a zero gradient at a peak or valley in the signal.
I therefore need some kind of algorithm that only measures the position of the flat regions.
Many thanks
John

Measure 8 channels DAQmx and labView

hi there,
its me again. I now have only 2 days left to complete this program for my internship and I must say that I've learned a lot.
But here's the thing, I need to measure 8 channels from a DAQPad 6015. But I cant get it to work.
Here's what I have so far. I dont know if Im doing it the right way, but I think I am.
I hope someone knows what to do, so that I can go on with finishing this program.
Thanks in advance

Woow!
Hey Jaap, if all that you want to do is acquire from 8 channels, you do not have to do all this exercise and coding!
Just see this VI, It will do the job, Modify it to work as you need
Your VI is not efficient since you are not doing a continous acquisition, you are configuring, staring and stopping acquisition in each iteration
Go through examples shipped with labview to get an idea on how to go about

Can we create ether-channel

HI
Can we create ether channel in this scenario.
for eg Switch1 in the ground floor and two switches on the first floor the two switches on the first floor are cascaded and from the ground floor switch two links are going to the two switches.
Thanks
Mahmood

Hi Mahmood,
You can create an EtherChannel on a standalone switch, on a single switch in the stack, or on multiple switches in the stack (known as cross-stack EtherChannel).
See Figure 33-2 and Figure 33-3 in the below mentioned link

How can I will declare the symbol u2018 (Single Quote) in the report

Hi ,
Could you please tell me how can I will declare the symbol u2018 (Single Quote) in the report.
My requirement is that I have concate the data with single quote and after that I have to store the data in to an internal table and I have to download the data in the form text file in the presentation server.
For example :
Let the below data I want to download into the presentation serve in the format of text file by storing in internal table.
Assume all are constants:
1st line : abcu2019add
2nd line : defu2019gef
Thanks in advance.

Hi Jyothi,
Thanks for the quick reply .
I can agree with you are point but My requirement is like this I am explaining clearly.
I have declared the internal table like this.
DATA: BEGIN OF OTAB OCCURS 0,
LINE (9024),
END OF OTAB.
So I have to append the each line item into the internal table.
So I am explaining what the data I have to append
Ist line contains
'UNBUNOC:2020308u2019 where 020308 I will get the date from reguh table
2nd line contains:
'DTM+20020510' where the 20020510 will be reference document number from the table reguh.
So I want to declare a constant 'UNBUNOC:2
2nd the date from reguh table
And another constant u2018
So that I can concate all the three and I can put into string and I will append into internal table and I can download the data into the presentation server.
Please let me know if you need any more clarification regarding my requirement.
Thanks in advance.

...that document doesnt say you cannot have multiple ASM instances on a node. It says "...ASM, +you only need one ASM+ instance for that computer, to manage the two database instances that use ASM."
The fact that you only need one - and I cannot think of a good reason to have more than one - does not preclude the fact that you do seem to be able to have multiple ASM instances on a single node, each looking after its own set of disks and diskgroups.
Again - I cannot think of a good reason to do so though!
