Copley controls and softmotion
For NI softmotion, there is specific reference to copley controls Xenus drives in the NI article referenced below. I need to get the position of a servo tube (stb25 from copley controls) after it has gone through the xenus amplifer. Will NI softmotion allow me to get the postional data? Also, the article below mentions external hardware needed to run softmotion such as PXI or PCI cards? If so, What specific card is needed? Does this apply to the Xenus amplifer as it seems to have its own RJ11 contverted to serial for an output to connect withi the PC.? There is also a RJ45 (cat 5) connection on the xenus which can connect to the PC. I just want to know what hardware I need to use this.
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3302
I already have purchased the xenus amplifer, servo tube(stb25), crio (9014) with 4 moduels. from NI. I am able to control the copley drive from labview via feedback of load cell. But, I cant get the positional data from the copley amplifer. The digital outputs from the drive are just simple high and lows to indicate faults. Ironically, the CME software has the positional data readily avaiable on the same PC, its just a matter of getting it into labview which i cant do.
I also found an article on the NI site called NI "soft motion controller for copley drives". This appears to have a another set of hardware which connectsion to the digital IO of the copley servo tube? What is the part number for this device? Does the hardware connect to the amplifer or the servo tube? Would it give out positional information or I would have to calculate it myself. It appears to just do output though while getting the digital input from elsewhere through.

Sorry for all the questions. This seems to be a new product line without a lot of documentation and I want to know what is going on before i send more money out..

Hi Jim,
As you mentioned, we don't have a ton of documentation on this hardware/software, but I will do my best to help you.
First off, the PCI/PXI cards that are being referred to are just CAN devices, that interface form your PC or PXI chassis to CAN, for example, the PXI-8461.
It seems like this does apply to even the Xenus amp, because it SHOULD accept CAN communication (from the documentation) and since the software is built around that, it is what I would reccomend.
So, from everything I have read and the pinouts, it does not appear that positional data is wired into our hardware. The CME software might pick it up, but since the control is done on the smart-drive end, the position is not necessary for anything on the LabVIEW end. I could be wrong here, but that is how it appears. You might be able to find out how the data is getting passed (as far as what wire) to the CME software, and somehow route that to LabVIEW. You could also possibly call the CME code FROM LabVIEW to see what the values are.
Again, the only hardware seems to be CAN devices. Ill attach an image of all of the part numbers:
I hope that this is of some help to you.

Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.
Absolutely!
Install Splashtop2 on the PC and enable it to be controlled or ran from iPad or Reflection to simply allow iPad to serve as PC unwired monitor. With Splashtop and an Apple TV connected, you use the smartboard as usual, yet the PC and iPad can see the same content. The impaired child can even interact with the Smart Board via the iPad as if he were writing directly on the big screen. Erasing functions can be done by touching the Smart Board manual controls. Several variables are in play that cause this lack of functionality:
Apple won't permit PC software that infringes its proprietary apps.
Smart Board companies refuse to develop iPad apps because they feel threatened and are being replaced by iPads
School districts think Apple TV is meant for copyright infringement and could expose them to safe harbor lawsuits
Network administrators make it impossible to login Apple TVs because they don't want the streaming occurring
Classrooms are not able to keep up with the technology of using the iPad
Clicker companies refuse to play with iPad because they see it as a potential threat to their core business clients
Apple is not working as hard as it could to exploit its capabilities in education, thus losing money in iPad sales
The bottom line is that we educators and technology developers are hurting our childern with petty conflicts. -
Remote Control and Remote View Problem
Hi,
I work at a High School running Netware 6.0 SP5 and Zen works 4.01 ir7.
Remote Control and Remote View works great but I noticed one problem.
We have a logo of the school that is forced down on to the desktop when a
user logs in through group policies. This logo works perfect for the
desktop wall paper and loads every time a user logs in.
When I Remote Control or Remote View a computer the users desktop wall
paper turns from the logo being forced down through group policies to the
desktop to a blue desktop wall paper.
I would prefer the desktop wall paper staying the schools logo when I
Remote Control or Remote View because if the desktop wall paper changes to
the blue color I mentioned above when I Remote Control or Remote View the
users computer, they will know that someone is taking over their computer
which sometimes we dont want them knowing.
We have Windows 98SE computer running Novell Client 3.4 and we have some
computers running Windows XP Professional SP1 and Windows XP Professional
SP2 both running Novell Client 4.91 SP2.
The Remote Control and Remote View problem of the desktop wall paper
changing on the users computer occurs on all operating systems mentioned
above.
Is there a solution to my above problem? When Remote Controlling and
Remote Viewing someone's computer I don't want the desktop wall paper to
change.
Thanks!Bpilon,

How to check if a user has clicked on a digital control and changed its value?
Greetings !!!
I am looking for a simple way (without using Windows messages)of knowing if an user has clicked on a digital control and changed its value.
I have tried the key focus property; but I have to click twice to make it work.
If somebody knows a better solution; please let me know.
Thank you in advance for your helpIf you just want to know if the value has changed you can put it in a while loop and use shift registers to see if the value has changed.

Hi community,
I am trying to integrate Cisco Unified Presence 8.6.1.10000-34 with IBM Lotus Notes 8.5.2 with the integrated Sametime Client version 8.0.2 via the Cisco Plugins 8.6.1.1185.
Phone control is working fine, whereas the presence status is not shown (= no handset symbol next to the Sametime user). When I look in the preferences of the plugin, I can see that the plugin has connected successfully to the CUCM (8.6.2.20000-2),whereas the connection to the CUPS has not been established.
The user id as well as the password are all the same on all systems. Here is a description of what I have configured via the ciscocfg.exe tool:
Feature Control:
- Enable Phone Status -> checked
- Enable Dial Using Cisco IP Communicator -> unchecked (not required)
- Enable Control Desk Phone -> checked
- Default Mode -> Control Desk Phone
Control Desk Phone Settings:
- Voicemail Pilot Number -> left blank (no voicemail)
- Cisco Unified Communications Manager
- Servers -> IP address of CUCM
- Read Only -> unchecked
- Use as Default CUCM -> checked
- Synchronize Credentials -> checked
- Use Sametime Credentials -> checked
Use Secure Connection: -> not required
LDAP Phone Attributes: -> not required
Phone Status Settings:
- Cisco Unified Presence Servers -> IP address of CUPS
- Read Only -> unchecked
- Synchronize Credentials -> checked
- Use Sametime Credentials -> checked
- Sametime User ID Mapping
- Use Business Card Attribute -> MailAddress
- Remove Domain -> checked
- Display Off-Hook Status Only -> unchecked
At the moment I don't see an error in the configuration, but maybe I am wrong. Could anyone please tell me what the error could be?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Kind regards,
IgorHi all,
here are some additions to my above post:
Servers and clients used:
1x CUCM 8.6.2.20000-2
1x CUPS 8.6.1.10000-34
1x IBM Lotus Domino Messaging Express Server 8.5.2
1x Sametime Entry Server 8.5.2 (on top of the Domino server)
2x IBM Lotus Notes 8.5.2 with integrated Sametime 8.0.2
2x Cisco Phone Control and Presence with Lotus Sametime (PCAP) 8.6.1.1185
2x Cisco Unified Personal Communicator 8.5.5.19839
Setup:
- CUCM, CUPS and CUPC are working fine, i.e. Desk Phone control via CUPC, as well as availability and presence status are working without issues
- IBM Lotus Domino server is the LDAP Directory, the Sametime Entry Server is installed on top of the Domino server and uses the Domino Directory
- User ID and password on CUCM/CUPS match the ShortName field and password in Domino
- The PCAP plug-in has been manually deployed to both Notes clients with the following configuration:
- Enable Phone Status -> active
- Desk Phone Control -> active
- no credential synchronization for CUCM and CUPS, i.e. every user must fill the user details himself
- Sametime User ID Mapping is implemented via the LDAP Attribute uid (which is equal to the user id in CUCM)
- LDAP configuration filled in with details of the Domino server
Phone Control is working fine, also the connection to the LDAP server (Domino) is fine. However, when I type in the credentials for the CUPS server login, I can see (in Troubleshooting pane) that the user (pparker) is connected to the CUPS server for a short period of time and then gets disconnected. After that no connection is possible to the CUPS server, i.e. status is always disconnected.
I have collected the Tomcat (EPASSoap00010.log and security00010.log) logs via RTMT and compared them to the logs from the PCAP plugin. The relevant time period is from 15:14 to 15:17. In the Tomcat logs I can see that the authentication is successful (see attached files), however in the log of PCAP plugin I can see the following messages:
2012/02/03 15:14:35.281 WARNUNG Credential is rejected. Nothing to retry ::class.method=com.cisco.sametime.phonestatus.cup.CUPPresenceWatcher.answerChallenge() ::thread=CT_CALLBACK.1 ::loggername=com.cisco.sametime.phonestatus.cup

I don't understand why the connection is rejected although the Sametime Internal ID and CUPS User ID match. Does anyone know what the issue could be?
All posts are very much appreciated!
Thanks a lot in advance!

Which infocube should I use for Controlling and Inventory?
Hi all,
I have several questions regarding Controlling and Supply chain management infocubes:
1. We need cost reports for the material ledger in order to meet the Brazilian compliance. I have found two infocubes:
CO-PC: Cost Object Controlling (0PC_C01)
CO-PC: Actual Costing / Material Ledger Costs (0COPC_C02)
What Infocube will help me to create a query that will meet our requirements? Which one is better?
2. We need a cost Center summary report, Expenses analysis, by product, cost center, business unit, region, plant, etc. and Expenses period comparison report. Which infocube will provide me that information for those reports, the CO-OM-CCA: Statistical Key Figures (0CCA_C03) or CO-OM-CCA: Costs and Allocations (0CCA_C11)?
3. What infocube will be needed to generate an inventory report (raw material, semi and finished goods)? Is it the Material Stocks/Movements (as of 3.0B) 0IC_C03?
Can I get an inventory report from the Purchasing data (0PUR_C01) infocube?
Thanks a lot
VicHi
1)you need to check the requiered characteristics are available or not from these data sources which supply data to the above said cubes,,2
2)0CCA_C11
3)0IC_C03
You cann't get the inventory report from the purchasing data(purchasing data always talks about the vendor supplying inventory,it never talks about the production inventory)
Hope it helps
Thanks

How do I click on a cell in a table control, and display the value in a string?
What I would like to do is to click on a cell in a table control, and have the value of the cell be displayed in a string indicator. What ever cell I click on, I would like the value to be displayed in the indicator.
Thank you!
Solved!
Go to Solution.... or
Event >>> ouse down for table.
Use Coords" to feed invoke node "point To Row Column" and returned "Cell Postion" can be unbundled to produce the row and column tht can be used to index out the value.

I notice in iPhoto that if I used to be able to single/double click on a photo to view it but now if I click CONTROL and then the TRACK PAD, the options don't allow me to open JUST that photo in nearly full page format. Any suggestions?
"nearly full page" means that I used to be able to double click on a photo in iPhoto, and it would open up to a full image within iPhoto itself. Now, there is absolutely no option to enlarge a photo unless you go to slideshow - no option to double click or side click or Control+click or Command+click or anything at all. The small white arrow at the bottom right corner of every photo gives you options, but none are options that include enlarging a photo to see it bigger. And no, you cannot double click it at all to even open it up in any other app unless you click/drag onto desktop and then open in Photoshop, or equivalent app. Yes, checked TP preferences. No, it doesn't help.

How to insert row in table control and save the data in tables
Hi,
I have one table control i am displaying data into table control ,
my problem is : i want to display data into read mode in table control.
but when i click on insert button on the same screen i want one blank line should inserted into table control , then i want to insert some data into table control on that row , when i click the save button . the new data inserted into the table control is insert that data into ztable ,
please give me solution
main problen is how can know inserted line in table control and pass that data into ztable.Hi,
Follow the below logic,
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
MODULE STATUS_0001.
MODULE POPULATE_TABLE_CONTROL. --> Get the data from table store in
ITAB
LOOP AT GT_CTRL_LP_D516 INTO GS_WA_CTRL_LP_D516
WITH CONTROL CTRL_LP_D516
CURSOR CTRL_LP_D516-CURRENT_LINE.
The following module moves data to control
MODULE MOVE_TO_CONTROL.--> Move data from ITAB to table control
ENDLOOP.
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
LOOP AT GT_CTRL_LP_D516.
ENDLOOP.
MODULE EXIT AT EXIT-COMMAND.
MODULE USER_COMMAND_0001. --> Here you have to take out the values from table control and update database table
Reward points if helpful.

My question is how do I increase the volume when playing a CD in iTunes. The volume slide is at full, but when I press Controls, it tells me to press Control and UP. Where is the UP on my PC or is it on the screen ??
Thank you.It means the UP arrow on your keyboard. Depending on your keyboard, it is usually located on the right hand side of the keyboard, either with the numbers keys or below the Enter (Return) key.
However, Control/Up will simply attempt to move the slider in your iTunes programme further up. If the slider is already at the top, then those keys will have no effect, since the iTunes volume is already at maximum. Perhaps your computer's volume controls need adjusting.
In Windows XP, I believe (if I recall correctly) that the volume control is in Start/Accessories/ and either Volume or Mixer. In Windows 7, it's in Start/Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/Adjust Sytem Volume. -
Problem with custom control and focus
I've a problem with the focus in a custom control that contains a TextField and some custom nodes.
If i create a form with some of these custom controls i'm not able to navigate through these fields by using the TAB key.
I've implemented a KeyEvent listener on the custom control and was able to grab the focus and forward it to the embedded TextField by calling requestFocus() on the TextField but the problem is that the TextField won't get rid of the focus anymore. Means if i press TAB the first embedded TextField will get the focus, after pressing TAB again the embedded TextField in the next custom control will get the focus AND the former focused TextField still got the focus!?
So i'm not able to remove the focus from an embeded TextField.
Any idea how to do this ?Here you go, it contains the control, skin and behavior of the custom control, the css file and a test file that shows the problem...

Unable to allow remote control and deny transfer files in RM
Hi, we're running ZCM 11 SP1 and I have a question about assiging rights to non-Helpdesk users for remote control only for user application support. It looks like if I deny transfer files that the button for remote control automatically changes from allow to deny. I couldn't find anything in the forums, KB, or docs to see if this is working as intended or a bug of some sort? If intended, do you know why remote control and transfer files go together, just curious? In ConsoleOne versions of remote management we had always limited non-Helpdesk remote operators and were hoping to do exactly the same with ZCM11. Thanks.
