Fulltime LabVIEW programmers, what do you do all day?

This question is for all who have a fulltime LabVIEW Job.
What do you do on a typical work day/week?
How many percent of your time do you use for programming, documentation, communication with costumers, communication with your team/colleagues, hardware selection, etc, etc.
The Enrichment Center is required to remind you that you will be baked, and then there will be cake.

What do you call someone that can only speak one language?

By the way, did you misspell 'observation' on purpose?

  • How do you disable all-day event notifications?

    I've already read the various threads about the issues with all-day events disappearing from the Today view and only appearing in the Notifications.  However, I am having an issue when trying to disable all-day event notifications.  I currently use my all day events from my work calendar (Lotus Notes 8.5) that is synched to my phone.  I have disabled the "Notify Me" option within Lotus Notes and changed the default all day event notification on my phone to "None".  The problem is that this has not disabled any all day event notification and I still get notified every night at midnight for the event.  This didn't happen on iOS 6 or any of the iOS 7 beta versions.  Is this something that can be fixed?  Thanks!

    the Automation quick access should be off by default. I don't think this is what will do it for you, but here is a description of it, Page 320 of the manual
    Automation Quick Access
    This feature makes Track Automation extremely fast and simple if you only have one hardware MIDI controller available (one fader on your MIDI keyboard, or maybe just the Modulation wheel). You can use this single hardware controller to access (and automate) the currently visible Automation parameter of the selected Track in the Arrange window.
    since it is midi messages that you do not want to send from your controller, I think you need to go to song settings an filter out incomming midi messages. File>song settings>midi>imput filter
    but really any messages being sent should only effect the channel you are playing. I am assuming you are playing one of logics instruments for live performance.

  • New ical no longer lets you see all-day events without scrolling, can this be changed?

    I have lots of all-day events on my ical, just upgraded to from mobileme to ical and the new calendar does not expand all-day events to allow you to see them all without scrolling.  I really need to see all of them without scrolling through them.  This applies to both the weekly & daily views.  Is there a way to change this?  The previous version allowed you to view them all, I don't call this progress. 

    I understand now - that behavior is annoying under the circumstances you describe, as you clearly want to indicate only a 'delay' in the start date and not necessarily and extension of the end date.
    This is one of those human interface things where they may have considered the behavior, and decided that instantly and automatically maintaining the event duration was the best choice, though a savvy programmer could have likely avoided the issue by testing for a duration of > 1, and changing only those cases where the duration was = 1. Durations of < 1 would not exist, by definition, so it would have been an extremely simple conditional test.
    I don't think that you are actually being too picky: the case you describe is not necessarily the controlling event type, but is highly likely to be encountered [it seems] and therefore should have been accounted for in the manner I described just above, or by some other similar mechanism.
    It's funny how these issues arise: the recently released Entourage single day event definition is different than the one used in iCal, as that team chose to define an all day event as:
    2006-03-15 00:00:00 +0000 for start, and
    2006-03-16 00:00:00 +0000 to end
    While both the iCal event description and the Entourage description might represent the same data points on either a 12 or 24 hour clock, they are clearly not identical, and this 'disconnect' in definitions might cause future problems as both applications push different representations to the truth while describing the same event.

  • LabVIEW Subcategories - What do you think?

    Hey all -
    We have a new approach to the LV Categorization issue, and we want to know what you think!
    Basically, from the main page, we can provide links to some customized searches that will return results that are related to the different LV modules regardless of where those threads have been posted in the community.
    1 - Please give us feedback on whether we should keep this in the community or not.  If you like it for LV, are there other places we should put in similar "filters"?
    2 - Also, let us know how to better fine tune the searches - what words should we be including and/or excluding?
    Thanks!

    In addition to rethinking subcategories, it would also be a good idea to rethink the granularity of the boards. Many boards have become complete ghost-towns (Hyperception, VideoMASTER, HiQ, some of the Additional Interest Boards...).
    Stepping back again, I think a reconciliation between some of the forums and some of the Communities Groups is in order. Currently, these are two internal entities fighting each other for traffic.

  • Freelance LabView Programmers where are you?

    I am searching for a freelance LabView programmer (in N.Wales / Manchester U.K.) does anyone know of a site that connects projects to freelancers?

    Do you need someone locally, or will a telecommuter be appropriate? I find it useful to have contractors working on the other side of the world - you can give them a task at 5pm, and the answer's on you desk (ie: in your email inbox!) by 9am the next day...

  • TS1398 what if you done all the steps and your still waiting to connect?

    i need help getting my ipod to connect to the internet

    I don't suppose that you could give us a clue what happens when you try?

  • Suddenly I get .... was about to tell you that all day I've had "Unable to connect to ITunes Store" and now I'm connected.  I attribute this sudden success to magic!!!  Hope y'all have the same.

     

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Calendar/All Day Event NOT SHOWING ANYMORE!!

    First of all this is the reason why I bought a BB. When I got the phone in Sept all of  my All Day Events would pop up first thing in the morning and not go away until I dismissed them. Now, don't know what has happened my all day events do not pop up anymore! This is really really bad.  For unorganized people like myself this option was the sole reason why I bought this phone and I need to have this back!
    And also, how frustrating is it that they don't have a customer support number where you can talk to an expert to resolve your problem.  Thank god I am slightly computer savy.
    Can anyone please help!!!
    Thanks

    I also lost most of my birthdays that I laboured to set up in my address book contacts. Can anyone please help on these disappearing calendar events?

  • Midnight Notification on All Day Event

    How do you get all day events to notify you at a decent time of day?
    Having this go off at midnight causes all kinds of issues. Why can't set have a user preference setting for when we want to get these notifications?
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    You would have to set up a timed event; all day events can only have a reminder set to none, event time, or 1,2,3 days, or 1 week in advance. They cannot be set to a specific hour of the day.

  • Do labVIEW programmers get any RESPECT where YOU work?

    I'm starting to get irked at the comments from C and even VB users who think LabVIEW is... well I'm not sure WHAT they think it is -- schematic capture for programmers?. For example, the other day in a meeting, I told the crew that I had to change part of my code to accommodate a hardware change. The C programmer looked over and said "So, you have to draw some pictures?". In another meeting, I recall another C programmer proclaiming to the entire audience that "LabVIEW is basically good for talking to hardware, and making fancy buttons."
    So many of them think that LabVIEW is just a GUI for NI cards. When I tell them that 90% of my apps don't even use NI hardware, their eyes just glaze over. I honestly think some of them believe there's an LabVIEW "Icon" for every specific programming task. If that's the case, can someone tell me where the VI "Make Valves Actuate Automatically With Incoming Sample And Check The Solution Temperature Before Running The Cleaning Cycle And Apply More Heat If It's Not Hot Enough With PID Control Unless The Omron Controller Is Not Set To PID" is located?
    What irks me the most is, it seems the people who have NO exposure to LabVIEW are the people that have the strongest opinions about it. Sure, I know they are defending their platform. And I know it's my job to defend LabVIEW when they bring up these comments. But I'm tired. So... tired.
    Oh, and back to my question, Do labVIEW programmers get any RESPECT where YOU work? If they do, let's do lunch. I work for peanuts.Message Edited by Broken Arrow on 06-24-2005 02:33 PM

    Respect will derive from the quality and reliability of the work you produce, not the systems you use to produce them!
    The same is true for them of course.
    The people I most respect at work are those who are well grounded in their area of expertise, systematic and methodical in their approach, grow their skill base, flexible in their solutions, document well and organise religiously.
    They almost always seem to be the most softly spoken in meetings, listening more than speaking and the most successful wherever they choose to exercise their talents.
    Selection of a particular system for your solutions may considerably aide you in producing higher quality and higher reliability solutions in a more timely fashion, that are also lower cost over the life cycle of the solution!
    In considering the issue that you raise; remember that software solutions, which is actually what you are about, relate to basic constructs such as: -
    A black box approach using: -
    Sequences
    Selections
    Iterations
    These should be based on a requirements analysis document and synthesised into a software specification document using a standard methodology.... I bet they have never seen either and probably couldn't manage some Axiomatic Set Theory....
    I would suggest that a strongly typed development methodology such as that encouraged by Labview, results in more reliable solutions more frequently than weakly typed approaches such as C. (Ask them about memory pointer management, type casting issues, memory de allocation and buffer overruns.... ohm yes and of course DLL hell..... that will keep em quiet)
    Do I consider my self a Labview programmer?
    Not so much as I consider myself a solutions architect -
    That is, I will use the most appropriate tool for the problem from an armoury of skills, Labview just happens to be one of my favourites.
    Well, it doesn't matter what you use to arrive at the solution, it's the quality of the solution that counts!
    Good luck wherever you choose to exercise your talents.
    P.S. At the moment I constitute one of the majority of Labview users.... I am the only one at our location.
    I don't know how much respect I have; but I do enjoy what I do and those I choose to do it with.
    As I anticipate doing it for a long time yet, I look forward to many more years enjoying myself thoroughly!Message Edited by Conseils on 06-24-2005 10:31 PM

  • Labview Full 6.1 - You get CIN Tools header files and what else?

    We have Labview 6.1 Base Level and are developing 3rd party instrument drivers, initially implementing the AI functions. I have disovered it would be nice to beable to use NumericArrayResize for which we need CIN Tools and may need to upgrade. What else would we get?
    Can we build polymorphic Vis?
    Can we include our third party driver in the Measurement and Instrument Explorer?
    Can we have DAQ channels registered to our instrument?
    Can we create a functions palette for our interface?
    Are we able to build a Labview installer for the driver?

    You can go to www.ni.com and get a complete list of all the features but briefly, the full version adds analysis, signal processing, custom graphics and animation, CIN/DLL tools. The professional version adds the applicaton builder, source code control, a differencing tool, and polymorphic VI creation.
    MAX is for NI hardware and IVI drivers - not LabVIEW instrument drivers. You say that you're using the AI functions which implies an NI DAQ board so the board should already be visible in MAX as well as the channels.
    I believe all versions of LabVIEW can create a custom palette. On your function palette, click the Options button and see if there's a Edit Palettes button. If there is, the LabVIEW help can guide you in the creation of your own .mnu fil
    es that you can save and distribute.
    The application builder (which is also available separately) includes an installer that could probably be used for driver installation but I've never tried it for that. When I've created LabVIEW instrument drivers, all I usually did was zip up the LLB and mnu files, place them in the instr.lib folder and then unzip them.

    If I get a message or buy an app or take a photo on the iPhone 5, how do I get those things onto the iPhone 6?
    If you buy an App, you have 2 ways to get it to the iPhone6: If Automatic Downloads is enabled in Settings->iTunes & App Store, it will automatically download to the iPhone 6 when you buy it on the 5 and vice versa if you buy it on the 6, it will download to the 5.
    Alternatively, you can simply go to the App Store App->Updates->Purchased and look for the App there and download it. Purchased Apps will not require payment again. i.e They'll be free to download to the iPhone 6 once purchased.
    SMS Messages will sync over using Continuity as long as they are on the same Wifi network. Otherwise, restoring the iPhone 5 backup to the iPhone 6 will transfer all messages received up until the backup was made onto the iPhone 6.
    Images, can be transferred either through Photo Stream
    My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
    Or any Cloud service you want such as Dropbox, or One Drive.

    Also, something i forgot to ask initially: Should I update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8 first or does that not matter?
    If you want the Continuity features as explained above you need to update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8. Otherwise its not all that important.

  • I´ve bought the new IPad3, what a disappointment the 3G does not work, no Internet available, APPLE what are you doing for the all the people in Germany who bought the new IPad3? I´m still an Apple fan, all my products are from Apple but I need a solution

    I have been waiting since months for the new IPad4G 64 Gbt. ON recommendation of Apple Support I have changed my IPad 4G last week in the hope that something was wrong with the firts one I bought.
    The one I have now has the same problems. WiFi is working however 4G not at all. Apple what can I do? What are you doing for the thausands of German Apple fans who have bought a IPad4G and can not use it. We need a solution NOW. I´m working with this tool and need to be able to rely on it.
    Thanks for a feed back.

  • Where are all my bookmarks - what have you done with Mozilla? you have screwed up my computer!

    Everything I had on my tool bar, and all the sites listed in my Bookmarks are GONE!!!
    What have you done with those sites? They were very important to me - I can not handle all these changes by Mozilla - None of these changes are of any use to me. I want to go back to my original screen and when I logged on today you would not let me access my internet and original screen without entering info that changed everything on my computer window!!! Help me find those BOOKMARKS
    Mozilla Firefox is not user friendly - I don't want all these apps - EBay, Weather or YouTube! I had the necessary sites listed that are important and used everyday - not those listed. Who are you to determine what "apps" I should be using???
    edit: email address edited out but it is likely too late for search bots grabbing it.

    I'm desperate to get back my Bookmarks in the same unsorted way and easily accessible as I had previously - at the moment they are hidden away in some sort of zipped form I am unable to access: they were previously listed in the ideal way for me to access - as chronologically bookmarked and disparate. It really is infuriating to have this level of interference with my personal affairs on my computer without even seeking my consent. Ideally I want a return to the earlier version of Firefox which worked perfectly well for me - I'm plagued with excessive slowness and freezing since the latest -Firefox 5.0- update was installed. Is there any simple way to revert back to the earlier version of Firefox?
