Can I Programmatically Change the Active Group on a Hypertrend in DSC?

I would like to know how to programmatically change the active group of a hypertrend in Labview DSC.  I saw a link which said it can be done in Lookout.  But in the DSC module, the active group is read only.
I know of a hard way to do it.  I could save the hypertrend settings as xmlSettings to a temporary file.  The active group is one of the settings.  I could then change the active group in this text file to point to the new group and then reload the settings.  But this is not a clean way of dong it.
Anyone know if there is a easy way?
Solved!

I found a way to do it but its not very clean.  I dont know why there is not a function to change the current group.
Here is how I did it.

  • Can you programmatically change the width of columns in a table control\indicator

    Is it possible to programmatically change the width of columns in a table control\indicator ie to fit to width of the data or in my case the header information.

    Create a property node (or reference) and use the 'Active Cell' property to select which column you want to change and then use the 'Cell size'--> 'Width' property to change the size.

    First, if you want to start getting beyond the basics with DAQ, you are going to have to stop using the DAQ assistant and do it with lower level DAQmx VI's.  There are hundreds of examples in the example finder.  You can even right click on the DAQ assistant and select open front panel.  That will create a subVI that you can open and see what is going on behind the scenes.  Do it.  I think you'll find the DAQ task is being recreated on each (though I'm not 100% of how the settings are established or maintained in each section of that subVI).
    The second problem is you have a bit of a race condition on iteration 0.  Those two DAQ property nodes are running at the same time.  So when you read the AI.Max, it may be happening before or after the AI.Max is set in your case structure.
    Third, make sure you wire up your error wires.

  • Can I programmatically change the printer paper size from ActionScript?

    Hi,
    I'm a newbie Flash/ActionSript developer and I have been searching for answers for a while with no luck. I wonder if I can get some pointers from this forum.
    I'm trying to programmatically print a movie clip to 8.5" x 11" plain paper regardless of the current paper size setting in the printer. e.g if the user's printer is currently set to use paper size A4, can I change the setting to Letter (8.5" x 11") from ActionScript at runtime? I use PrintJob class for printing the movieclip.
    According to the ActionScript online API spec ( http://www.adobe.com/livedocs/flash/9.0/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context =LiveDocs_Parts&file=00002066.html), I can only READ the paper size setting after the call to PrintJob.start. I can't believe that we are not allowed to change the setting. Maybe I missed something here. Can somebody help me out?
    Thanks in advance!

    check your duplicate thread.

  • How can I programmatically change the colour of tab pages? If not, when?

    I have found that in LabVIEW 6.0.2 the "Dialog" tab control cannot be coloured, but the other type of tab control one can be coloured by the paintbrush tool. I cannot find any property node to programmtically set the colour of the enitre tab control or individual pages. When will these properties be available in LabVIEW?

    The dialog controls and indicators are designed
    specifically for use in dialog boxes. These controls inherit their color from the colors you set in Control Panel >> Display. Because of this you will not be able to programmatically change their color.

  • How can I programmatically change the voltage range settings in a DAQ Assistant

    Hi,
    First post here.  
    I need to be able to change the voltage range properties of a daqmx DAQ Assistant based on user input.  My hardware, an SCXI-1102C does not allow changing this property on a running task, so I'd like to either set the analog input voltage range before the DAQ Assistant activates, or pause the DAQ Assistant immediately after it starts, set the values and then resume.
    I don't know how to edit the task ahead of time because the DAQ assistant creates the task when it runs, and there is no task before that.
    In the attached picture, I have a conditional section, set to run only if the while loop iteration is 0.  I take the task from the Daq assistant, send it to a stop task vi, set the property, and then send the task on to the start task vi. I can watch it run with the debug light on, and everything seems to work correctly, but on the second (and all the other) iteration of the loop, I read out AI.Max and it seems like the DAQ Assistant has re set it back to 5V.  Can anyone see what is going wrong here?
    BTW, this is continuous acquisition and the code does not produce error messages when it runs.
    I did come across a similar question that someone posted here back in 2006, but his question was specifically aimed at a Labview API (VB, I think), and not an actual G solution.
    Attached are the actual vi in question and a png image of the block diagram.

  • Can I programmatically change the VI Search Path?

    I'm writing a simple program to periodically mass compile certain directories of my source code.  In my directory structure I try to enforce rules about what is allowed to depend on what, so I want to programatically enforce this during the mass compile.   To do this, I'd need to modify the VI search path before each directory is compiled.  Is there any property or method available for changing the VI Search Path?

    There is, but it's a private property, so it's not documented, and its behavior and/or availability can change with subsequent releases of LabVIEW:

  • Can I programmatically change the FP IAK file in LabView

    We are using our FP-1000 as dataloggers for thermocouples and voltage reading. However the configuration of the setup may change depending on which (and how many) modules are attached to the communication module. I would like my program to go out to the FP and figure out which modules are attached and then ask for channel configuration info form the user. This will prevent from needing multiple iak files and the operator will not have to use FP Explorer. Can this be done? Thanks.

    Mike,
    Yes, this can be done. You can use the low level serial FieldPoint VIs to do what you wish. The FieldPoint Serial VIs are located under the FieldPoint>>Advanced>>Serial Configuration palette. Side Note: These VIs used to be installed by default only if you had LabVIEW RT on the system, you may need to do a custom reinstall of NI-FieldPoint to get the VIs. The VIs allow you to determine what modules are attached (!B), configure the channels (!D), and read/write the channels. These commands are all documented in the FP-1000/1001 Programmers Reference Manual available at http://digital.ni.com/manuals.nsf/websearch/EE241C7357D3F8CE862567840072F554?OpenDocument&node=132100_US .

  • Can you programmatically change the iView Title?

    Hi,
    I have a custom iView, and a requirement is to have the iView tray title changed depending on the content shown.
    Is it possible to have the iView Title changed from the custom iView code?

            IPcdAttribute basePcdAttribute =
                pcdUtils.createPcdAttribute(PcdAttributeValueType.TEXT, IAttrPcmGeneral.ATTRIBUTE_TITLE);
            basePcdAttribute.set(locale, title);

  • How to programmatically change the password of user accounts in PDF Generator

    I am using 4 user accounts for multi-thread converting Word documents to PDF in PDF Generator ES3, and I have to update the password of those user accounts. Does PDF Generator ES3 save the password somewhere on the Windows 2008 server? Can I programmatically change the password of those accounts other than updating them manually from LiveCycle Admin console?
    Thanks,

    Not in LiveCycle API.

  • How to programmatically change the width of a graph?

  • How can we change the purchasing group which it is maintained in R/3?

    Hello All.
    In case of MM, purchasing group is assigned to material master.
    It means purchasing group is maintained based on material code.
    But SRM has different maintenance level.
    As you know that purchasing group has the responsibility based on material group (Product category).
    So we should change the purchasing group from R/3, when end user create shopping cart.
    How can we change the purchasing group which it is maintained in material master?
    Thank you,
    Best regards,

    Hello So Hee,
    I am not a technical guy.
    But for your requirement i am building a logic.
    I am not sure whether it will work.
    You need to check with your ABAPER.
    It is as below:
    When the SC is approved and the other configuration is correct ,
    PR is created in ECC by the virtue of BAPI.
    You want that the pur grp should be populated on the base of matl code and not on matl grp.
    Hence in SC you will not fill up pur grp.
    In the programme for BBPSC01 i.e. SC creation you will add modification that it will call a custom FM.
    This custom FM will get the matl code from SC and will find the value of pur grp from R/3 MM01i.e. matl master(you may get in MARA).
    Now in the BAPI you need to incorporate this additional value of yr pur grp field.
    So the desired pur grp as per yr R/3 matl master will be populated in yr R/3 PR.
    Again: this is all hypothesis.
    That's all I can help you.

    Hi!
    If you look to the sourceCode of your EP (rigthClick->show source) you'll see that some JavaScriptFiles are loaded. One of them is called:
    "WAandNavPanel.js"
    Inside this file are some nice functions like "collapsePanel()" and so on. I didn't try, but perhaps you can use them or they can show you the right way.
