Create and Send an array of hex code to a device through serial port

My name is Tina Drew,
I am working programming a project involving an RFID system. In order to get the project to work the way that I desire, it must send a hex code of 01 to start the device and 6A to run in continuous mode. I have part of the program by the device does not appear to be responding to the hex signal. Maybe my programming is incorrect. In addition, it will not read the information from the microreader through the serial port. It says that the time has expired before the operation can be carried out. What should I do? A sample of the program is attached.
Please contact me as soon as possible at 410-651-7604 or [email protected]

You forgot to attach your program. It happens to the best of us. I sure wish NI would move the darn attachment button next to or before the submit button.
Things to check:
Baud Rate
Number of stop bits
Parity bit
DCE device talking to DTE or vice versa. If both devices are DCE or both DTE, you must use a null modem cable.
You can use Hyperterminal to see if you can communicate with your device manually (On the hyperterminal screen, hold down the Alt key and type 001 from the numeric keypad, not the numbers from the top row above the letters, a smiley face will appear if the device echos back the character. If it don't, you can setup hyperterminal to display the character - look under file-properties-settings-ASCII Sending-Echo typed characters locally). If you receive a good response, this will tell you if you have the correct baud rate, etc... After proving that this works, make sure your vi's serial port configuration match your hyperterminal settings. You can use a breakout box to determine if you have a good DCE-DTE match. DCE will assert the RS232 signals DSR, CTS, and CD. DTE will assert DTR and RTS. By hooking up a breakout box on one end of the com link, you can see which LEDs are on and this tells you whether you have a DCE or DTE. Most computers are DCE. Modems are DTE. Your device would have to look like a modem to the computer as far as RS232 signals go.

  • How to create and use mutable array of UInt8

    Hello!
    If I get it right, UInt8 *buffer, buffer - is a pointer to a start of array?
    Then how to create and use mutable array of UInt8 pointers?
    The main target is a creation of the module that will store some byte array requests and will send all of them at the propriate moment.

    I try

  • Create and send EDM using Adobe MUSE and Business Catalyst.

    There is just one thing missing in my armour as a graphic designer – creating and sending EDMs.
    Given the success of creating websites using Adobe Muse, an EDM functionality would be a fantastic addition to MUSE and Business Catalyst (BC). Imagine this:
    1. I open Adobe Muse.
    2. I select "New EDM"  (instead of "New Site").
    3. I design and build my EDM to spec.
    4. I test my EDM using 'Preview' or a single send to myself.
    5. I publish my EDM to Business Catalyst.
    6. In BC, I review my EDM and add 'FROM NAME', 'FROM EMAIL ADDRESS' and 'SUBJECT'.
    7. I import my database.
    8. I hit SEND!
    After my EDM has gone out, I can review a report in BC - just like any report for a website.
    As a designer that does not know code but can build a website using MUSE - creating an EDM is the one thing I can't personally offer. Using a digital supplier can be expensive and website like Mail Chimp aren't professional enough.
    To the Adobe Muse team, please – for the love of humanity – consider this as viable addition to MUSE. You will save a lot of heart ache and win a lot of hearts.
    Thanks,
    Phil

    Done!

  • How do I create, and send a group email on my iPhone?

    How do I create, and send a group email from my iPhone 4?

    How to send group email without additional APP
    Just spent an hour on ichat.  Long and short....can't send group email.  The group name appears in the TO: line, but if you click on the group name, only the first email address is blue..the rest are black and will not get the email.  We tired using the CC and BC lines...same result. 
    However here is one solution:
    I sent one email with each of the group (we are only 9 ) in the TO: line.  I included my primary email.  When it came to the iphone, i moved it to one of the subfolders.  (Each account you may have has a list of the inbox at the top and Account at the bottom.  ... that is where you can access the subfolder)
    I moved the email with all names to that subfolder.  I can then, open it ...do a relpy to all and just change the message and subject line.   It is cumbersome, but it does work.  I really think Apple, a company committed to ease of use, needs to review this flaw.  I suspect it may be a bandwidth economy ....  and i feel the pain of the providers...but you did create the beast.

  • Send DAQ measurement results through serial ports

    Hi, All
    I use PCI-6034E for measurement. After DAQ gets data, I send them to another computer through serial port (com1). I write a Virtual C++ program, which calls NI-DAQ library functions to implement DAQ data sampling (multiple channel scan) and sends measurement data to another computer through serial port under request. DAQ data sampling and serial communication are implemented in two threads. They are running concurrently. They share a global memory for measurement data. The serial communication thread will do infinite wait and send data only when another computer sends a request through serial port.
    I met two problems. First, when I reduce the size of DAQ measurement buffers (piBuffer and halfpiBuffer, I us
    edouble buffer model), DAQ measurement is often interrupted by the message "[DAQ_DB_HalfReady] returned NI-DAQ warning 10846. Your application was unable to retrive data from the background acquisition buffer fast enough so the unretrieved data was overwritten with new data. ...". I want to get run time data so I need to reduce the buffers as small as possible. How can I solve it ? The second problem is that the serial port gets error data (nothing) from measurement computer sometimes, especially when DAQ initializes itself and finishes work. It looks like that there is a conflict between DAQ and serial port. Does anyone have similar experience about this? Any suggestion?
    Thank you in advance.
    Le Cai

    Le Cai,
    You are correct that the number of scans to read is equal to half of the buffer in double buffer mode. I was mistaken and referring to a standard (non double buffered) operation. However, you can increase the size of your buffer without affecting the period of your acquisition. A buffer of 60 is quite small and, as such, will be more prone to overflow errors. The rate is actually set through the DAQ_Rate() and DAQ_Start() functions. For more information on these functions and how to configure the scan rate, please see the NI-DAQ Function Reference Manual.
    NI-DAQ Function Reference Manual for PC Compatibles
    http://digital.ni.com/manuals.nsf/websearch/1630A0B68738B269862567C1007A2912?OpenDocument&node=132100_US
    A good place to start would be the example titled, "DAQdoubleBuf.c" which ships with the NI-DAQ driver. If you installed the examples for Visual C++ when you installed the NI-DAQ driver you should be able to find this example in the \Program Files\National Instruments\NI-DAQ\Examples\VisualC\AI folder on your computer. This example would be a good template as it is very close to what you are trying to do.
    If you observe that you only receive the overflow error when you are operating the two threads, thus ruling out the buffer size as being a potential problem, you may want to examine whether or not your second thread is placing a lengthy exclusion on your data buffer during the period when your first thread is trying to move the data. If your first thread has to wait during the half-buffer transfer this could easily cause the overflow, as the acquisition would be running but the transfer would be paused. Instead of placing a mutual exclusion around one piece of global memory you could try using a queue instead. A queue approach will allow you to pass the data from the first thread into a queue to be read, when convenient, by the second thread. In this method the first thread would never have to wait as the transfer would just be a handoff.

  • Create and send workitem

    Hi all,
       I want to create an workitem without using workflow and send that workitem to the specified-user inbox. Any FM(Function Module) available for that. Can anyone help me with this because its urgent.
    Regards,
    Ramesh
    Edited by: Ramesh Vinay on Sep 20, 2008 10:35 AM

    Hi,
    As Arghadip was telling, for creating a witem, you need either a wflow template or atleast a single-step task with a triggering event. But, for creating a task that doesn't need the user action, it has to be a NON DIALOG task and i'm not sure if your BO has that task, coz your single-step task should use a method of the BO.
    Instead of sending a Notif. to the Wflow folder, if you send a mail, it'll go to the DOCUMENTS folder which also serves the similar purpose. Ofcourse, you can Delete the mails in the Documents Folder.
    Hope you got what i just said although I'm not sure if my explanation will suffice your requirement.
    Goodluck

  • Issues with creating and sending BOM XML IDOC to SAP using 2010 WCF-SAP Adapter (without using Biztalk Server)

      I'm trying to replace an existing Biztalk 2006 Send BOM IDOC process, and completely remove Biztalk server from the equation.   The existing Bizatalk 2006 server receives an input BOM (Bill of Materials) flat file, and using a Biztalk Map (BM08),
    and Orchestration, generates an Idoc and sends it to SAP.
      In my replacement C# program, I'm using the 2010 WCF-SAP Adapter, and am trying to generate the BOMMAT03 XML IDOC it to SAP.  
      I generated the BOMMAT03 schema from SAP using the Add Adapter Service in VS 2010.  I was able to generate a BM08 XSLT from the existing BMO8 map in the current Biztalk 2006 process.  I am able to run a XSLT transform on the input BOM flat
    file, and generate an XML file from that.  
      However, I've run into a few issues.   First of which, is that the XML file that is generated from the XSLT transform is NOT the same schema as the BOMMAT03 schema expects.  It's somewhat similar, but different enough that I have to manually
    translate between the two in my code.  I've verified that both the original Bitztalk 2006 process and my replacement program use BOMMAT V3 from SAP.  Question--Is Biztalk 2006 server doing some other magic to turn that transormed XML into the BOMMAT03
    schema?    
     I ended writing code which translates the transformed XML into the BOMMAT03 schema (which is a strong typed XML IDOC at this point).
      However, when I try to send the BOMMAT03 XML IDOC, I get an exception "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
                   idocClient.Send(idocData, ref sadapterTxGuid);
    idocData is of type BOMMAT03, and I've verified that the various fields are populated.  
      Any help is appreciated. 

    Well, putting in a MSDN subscription support ticket for Biztalk server actually helped with the issue.  They didn't find, or fix the issue directly.  But one of the examples (https://randypaulo.wordpress.com/tag/idoc/) they sent over, jogged my
    memory, and I realized in the code snippet below, I had accidentally deleted the 1st line.  Such a simple mistake, yet was easy to overlook.  The URL example is almost EXACTLY like my code, but without the transform and translation code to convert
    from input XML file to IDOC XML.  If someone is interested in that, let me know.    
    //Forgot the 1st line.  
    idocClient = new IdocBOMMAT03SIEIS_WED_BOMMAT03V3R700Client(binding, endpointAddress);
     idocClient.Send(idocData, ref sadapterTxGuid);
    For anyone else interested in knowing, you CAN send a strongly typed IDOC to SAP using C#.NET and the WCF SAP 2010 Adapter, using the IDOC Binding Client class you generated using the Add Adapter Service Reference in VS2010.  
    The one difference, which no one, not even the tech support from MS could tell me, was why the XSLT which I generated from the original map, did not transform the input BOM XML into the BOMMAT03 XML.  Instead, it transformed it into an intermediate
    XML, which resembled the BOMMAT03 IDOC XML, but still needed to be translated to the BOMMAT03 IDOC format.  
    The tech support person swore up and down that it should.  But I believe that something happens in Biztalk server, after the Mapping occurs, maybe in the Pipeline, which converts that
    intermediate XML into the final BOMMAT03 IDOC XML format.
    I do think that the examples are severely lacking in showing how to send a strong typed IDOC using C# and the WCF-SAP Adapter.  Even worse, the examples are completely lacking in how to actually generate a weakly typed IDOC.  They show how to send
    that weakly typed IDOC, but show me, or give me a class to be able to generate it.
    I realize that this is not quite the "recommended way" to do it, but in reality, not everyone wants or even needs a full Biztalk installation.   For some simple stuff like this, a C#.NET program and WCF-SAP adapter do the trick.  

  • Creating and using a VI to control a 488.2 device

    I am trying to control an IEEE 488.2 device using labview. I connected a usb GPIB controller to the device and I am recieving signals on the Measurement and Instrumentation explorer. Now, I want to develop a VI on Labview that reads values from the device and uses them. How do I use the device driver/VISA/example GPIB vi ect. to do this?

    It's too esay to do than to explain it but i'll try! The only VIs you'll need to use are Visa READ and Visa WRITE under the Instrument I/O menu. The last one could be used to send strings of commands to the selected instrument whereas the first could be used to read strings of data from the instrument. To select the instrument you must plug a constant value to the "VISA Resource Name" terminal. Labview automatically lists all the possible visa peripherals you need only to select the gpib device and that's all! The same thing when you want to retrive informations from the instrument. In this case you must specify the length of the string to be read which is indicated by an integer number. To know this value you can use NI Spy in the "Measurement and Automation" sui
    te and simulate the reading operation. NI Spy will then show the command strings sent to the instrument and the ibrd command show the length of the retrived string (idrd(instr.id,string,length)).
    I hope that this explanation could be clear and of some use.

  • Want to use dotNet with teststand, but unsure how to send commands through serial port

    I have a loCom communication dll used to send and recieve commands through serial comunication for a particular product.  I the past they have used a LabVIEW wrapper to send and recieve commands, using this particular dll.  I would like to just use testStand for the DOTNET Dll.  I can get the commands, know the inputs and outputs required, however I can not figure out how to send the commands to the serial port.  Anyone have any exprience doing this in TesSTand?

    hallawt,
    With your .NET code module, you should be able to call it directly, most likely as a parameter in the .NET method.
    What are the inputs for the method you're trying to use?
    Also, could you clarify where you're starting to have problems in your project?

    Does LabVIEW 6.1 support this under Windows 2000 Pro?
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Fraser,
    I just moved an app to a new laptop and had to use a USB to serial comm adapter. At first try the app did not find the comm port.
    After sleeping on it, we downlaoded the most up-to-date driver for the device and upgraded VISA to the latest and gretest version.
    Everything worked fine after that.
