Expression descriptors and plc acknolwedgments

I have two separate Lookout Direct questions here...
The first is about the characters following expressions, such as the ":b" in V0002:b... I'd like to know what they are called and where I can find them in the Lookout Direct manuals!  I spent about an hour looking for a list/explanation but could not find one.  I was watching a timer value in an expression and without the :b there the value did not match the PLC value.  I'm guessing this is some sort of typecast?
Secondly, I'm curious if there is a tutorial or suggested method on having Lookout wait for an PLC acknowledgement for a data or state change?  I used LatchGates but am not sure if it's the best way to do such a thing.
Thanks,
Dave

The characters are Data Modifiers.   They are covered in Appendix B of the LookoutDirect Getting Started manual ... which is over at AutomationDirect.com: http://web2.automationdirect.com/static/manuals/lkdm/lkdm.html#gsg.
In this case it is a BCD thing.

  • When I open logic express 8 with eyetv open but not active and i close logic express 8 and make eyetv active it won't show closed captioning even though closed captioning is turned on

    when I open logic express 8 with eyetv open but not active and i close logic express 8 and make eyetv active eyetv won't show closed captioning even though closed captioning is turned on.  When I totally close eyetv and reopen eyetv and open a live tv window the closed captioning comes back.  I never noticed this with os leopard, Just after i installed os snow leopard.  All software is up to date only I think, thanks to apple they droped support for logic express.  Thanks for any suggestions.

    Does toggling CC off & back on bring it back?

  • What do you do if someone uses your account to purchase programs? All the YuFanApp programs were purchased on my account. I called apple and they said go online to express support and that was NO help. I changed my passwords but I am concerned.

    Yesterday I started getting these emails that my address and credit card information was changed. I then got one that an order was placed on a device I had never used before. I did not do any of this so I went in to my account and there it was, all programs by YuFanApp had been purchased! (To me this is a red flag that that company may have stolen information from itunes users!) My credit card was not on file, I can't remember if I ever had it on there. The gift card I had on my account had been drained. My shipping adress was still the same. So I changed my password and tried to call customer service. They said they were sorry and just go online to the customer support express page and do things there to report it but there is nothing there to report it. Anyone have an email address or something I can work with?

  • Issues during reinstallation Oracle 10g express edition and Forms 6i

    I've been racking my head over this issue for the past two three days. Exasperated, I tried searching in the forums but could not find a specific scenario like this.
    I am facing issues while trying to get forms 6i to work with oracle 10g Express edition
    i have windows XP home edition (installed service pack 2) and installed oracle 10g express edition as well as the oracle 10g express client and SQL developer on the same machine. The database started fine and I was able to use Enterprise manager.
    After that I tried installing Forms 6i and whatever i try i am not able to connect to the database from Forms though I was able to connect easily from SQL developer. I used to get the error 12154 "TNS:could not resolve service name"
    I dont know if Forms 6i expects the database connector string in some particular format. I searched on the net and found some people solved the issue by reinstalling the database software.
    My machine name was complex so I changed it as well and reinstalled the software. Again the DB was fine and connections were fine but no way I could get forms to connect to the DB. All the time
    I tried installing Forms to the same folder that Oracle express edition home in the hope that it might fix the problem. That only caused my database to crash. The oracle xe service shows as started but the Enterprise manager link does not work and it seems the database is down. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling client and server to no avail.
    Has anyone gone through such a situation and solved this ? Appreciate your help.

    The statement about XP Home is correct, but in this case I would say the initial problem (Forms and ORA-12154) is independent of that, it also happens in a supported environment. I think it's the old problem, a second Oracle home was installed, but tnsnames.ora containing the connect informations is located in the first home.
    Either tnsnames.ora is copied from to <Second_ORACLE_HOME>\network\admin or the environment variable TNS_ADMIN is set system-wide to <First_ORACLE_HOME>\network\admin.
    I think now it's necessary to create a clean machine (remove all Oracle components as explained in the database installation guide for Windows). Then repeat the installation , but XE and Forms 6i in different ORACLE_HOMEs.

  • The Regular Expression anchors, "^" and "$" do not work for me in Dreamweaver

    I am using the Find and Replace feature of Dreamweaver 8 and especially the "Use Regular Expressions" setting.  But I have never been able to make the Regular Expression anchors "^" and "$" work at all.  This are supposed to fix a match at the beginning or ending of a line or input.  But if I search even something as elementary as "^ ", or " $", it can't seem to find them.
    Am I missing something?  Can somebody give me an example of this working?
    Any and all tips or clues would be appreciated.

  • Please help with Logic Express 7 and using DFH plugin!

    Hey guys, I'm really in a tight spot here as I have no idea how to get my setup working properly. I recently bought an entirely new Imac, Logic Express 7, and a drum plugin called Drumkit From **** Superior (VSTi I believe is the type of plugin they call it). It is supposed to be compatable but I see no way to get it to show up as a plugin. I tried some other programs and it shows up as a plugin and I'm able to get into the interface, but I can't in LE7.
    It is supposed to be compatable as a "rewire" plugin or something like that, but I'm not too sure how to approach that differently, both manuals are very vague.
    Basically, I'm wondering:
    1. How would I go about getting Drumkit From **** Superior to show up as a "plugin" (and what it would be under) if I have to use it a "rewire"?
    2. If I could get it running as a plugin, how would I go about programming a drum part using that "drumkit" in Logic Express?
    Thanks, any help is greatly appreciated.
    -Daniel

    It's a tough one man, I'm actually wanting to go for EZdrummer which I think comes under the same umbrealla as DFH, the patch will come to let you upgrade to intel hopefully by September so hold onto that plug in as I think it'll be worth it in the long run. In the mean time do you have any other options to make beats?
    I use Reason 3.0, I sequence my beats using Reason Drum Kits 2.0 and export them as WAV or AIFF files into Logic, do you have anything similar that you can do? write you beats else where and import into Logic?

  • I just got a fc7 yamaha expression pedal and can't figure out how to configure it with mainstage or logic.

    I just got a fc7 yamaha expression pedal and can't figure out how to configure it with mainstage or logic.  I'm using a Gio pedal.

    Hi
    You will need to map the "Expression Pedal" to the Waa pedal. There are several ways you could do it, here's one:
    In Layout Mode, add a Pedal Screen control, and Assign it to the in-coming MIDI from the GiO.
    In Edit mode, select the Screen Control, and click the "Map Parameter" button. While this is active click on the Wah pedal in the PedalBoard plugin. Turn off 'Map Parameter".

  • Airport Express Pops and Clicks

    I bought an airport express about a month ago with the goal of adding Airplay support to our living room.  So far it's worked well except that it pops and clicks (sometimes very loudly) every 20 minutes or so.  I've read that electrical interference may be the cause but 4 different surge protectors and line conditioners have done nothing to fix the problem.
    I'm not using iTunes.   Only streaming from iphones and an ipad.
    Are there any additinal steps I can take before returining the unit?

    If it also pops and clicks when you plug in the headphones, that points to a defective AirPort Express that will need to be replaced.
    If you do not hear the pops and clicks on the headphones, then you know the AirPort Express is good and the problem is likely somewhere between the AirPort Express, amp and speakers.
    Sometimes a compressor on a refrigerator or air conditioner will send spikes though the AC lines that are picked up in the amp, no matter what kind of surge supressor you have. I have had this problem, and had to replace the separate amp I was using.
