Help with case structure

In the VI that i'm enclosing, i have used a boolean array of two booleans to operate two case structures. Inside the case structure, when the boolean is true the shift register value is to be incremented once.The difference between the two incremented values is taken as count. I am facing two problems, firstly, the increment takes place continously instead of just once every time the boolean is true, secondly, the count switches to zero when the switch is turned back to false.
Thanks in advance.

Need help with case structures- please help :)

Hey all.
I'm currently trying to program a infrared furnace. I'm setting a temperature, subtracted my set temperature from the actual temperature (thermocouple hooked up to SCB-68), and voltage is being sent to the controller of the furnace accordingly. However, I need to hold the set temperature for a certain amount of time. I need help programming this: when the VI reads the set temperature from the thermocouple, it results in a timer running down. When the timer runs down to 0, the While Loop ends. I'm thinking case structures is most appropriate, but if you have a better suggestion, please let me know.
Thanks

You should probably implement a state machine.
The state machine would keep track of the temperature and making ajustments on a timely basis.
There is a template of a state machine is you select under the File menu > New > From Template.
You can also look under Help > Find Example > and do a search for state machine.
There are lots of state machine examples on this forum, some of which may be quite useful.

Can I control pages in tab control with case structure?

Hi there!
I'm quite new to Labview and my company wants me to make some programs for testing of electronics. I'm currently working on the GUI and I would like to control three pages in a tab control with buttons.
I only got the base package of Labview 2009 so I can't use Event structure.
If you open my .vi you can see I have a tab control with three pages. In the first page I got a "Start" button that should open the next page in the tab control. In the middle page I have a "Tilbake (Back)" button that should go back to the previous page. The button called "Lagre (Save)" should work as a next button and go to the last page. On that page I have a "Tilbake(Back)", "Ny test(New test -> go to first page again)" and "Avslutt (Quit)".
The buttons under the tab control where something I copied from an example just to try out. That works perfectly, but I cannot edit the Event Structure from the example.
Is this possible to solve with Case Structure? Or maybe there are other solutions? Feel free to edit my .vi if you like
Thanks for the help!

Hi again!
Well it solved my problem, but I got a strange error while running my program.
When I press "start", the tab control changes page. When I press "tilbake(back)" it is totally random how many clicks it is necessary for it to change back to the first page. It can be from 1 to 20-30 clicks. Which is very strange since all other navigation buttons works perfect. "Tilbake(back)" button on the last page works correctly and has the same structure as the "tilbake(back)" button on the middle page.
I have tried all the different options on how the button will response on a press.

I need help with event structure. I am trying to feed the index of the array, the index can vary from 0 to 7. Based on the logic ouput of a comparison, the index buffer should increment ?

I need help with event structure.
I am trying to feed the index of the array, the index number can vary from 0 to 7.
Based on the logic ouput of a comparison, the index buffer should increment
or decrement every time the output of comparsion changes(event change). I guess I need to use event structure?
(My event code doesn't execute when there is an event at its input /comparator changes its boolean state.
Anyone coded on similar lines? Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

You don't need an Event Structure, a simple State Machine would be more appropriate.
There are many examples of State Machines within this forum.

Need help with XML structure

Hello, I would like to create an extention that will help to
manage a
glossary.
First I need to decide on the structure of the xml document
that will
contain all glossary entries. Since I don't have much
experience with XML in
extention content, I was wondering if there are certain
recommendations I
should follow.
What is preferable: using attributes that will holt the
content or rather
having xml-elements. What is easy to parce?
I would greatly appreciate any tips, help and suggestions.

I would start as simple as possible, for example with
something like
this:
<glossary>
<entry>
<term>...</term>
<explanation>...</explanation>
</entry>
<entry>
<term>...</term>
<explanation>...</explanation>
</entry>
</glossary>
Of course it also depends on what you want to do with this
structure and
if you need additional informations.
>What is preferable: using attributes that will holt the

>having xml-elements. What is easy to parce?
There's no real rule-of-thumb whether to use elements or
attributes.
If unsure, use elements.

to convert abap itab or variable into xml string use ABAP key word call transformation.
call transformation (`ID`)
            source output = itab[]

Broken Arrow with Case Structure Input Selector

Generally We get a broken arrow when a case structure
is wired incorrectly to its case selector .
I found that even after this is fixed, the arrow remains broken.
however when you click on the broken arrow, the VI
starts to execute instead of highlighting the error.
Seems like a compiler Issue.
I want to know if anyone has faced this issue.
I am currently using LV 8.6

I can confirm that. I HAve seen it with type defs as well as LVOOP classes.
I have never been able to reproduce it on demand but it always seesm to be associated with situations where a type or class definition was changed. I think I have seen this issue on and off from LV 8.2 thru LV 8.6.

Possible to do this with case structure?

Essentially I want the case structure to do: If case1 = run OR case2 = run, do this, else do case3++
I'm using a string case structure right now, where for example, the inputs could be SWEEP_A or SWEEP_B but I want the case structure to use case SWEEPAorB. This is so I can have different names for the input string BUT run the same case (this is to avoid redundant code for what I'm doing).
Thanks.

For more complex logic use can use create a boolean array and convert it to a number.

Help with Event Structure!.

Hello,
I am trying to config one event structure in the way I could change the range of sample graph to analyze it.
I have 3 graphs. The upper is the signal input. In the middle is the signal fitted with some calculations and the bottom is the graph where I fix the sample width to analyze with anothers values.
I put event structure in the way I read from file and later update the array of data to force the execution of Case "array 2".
Its only one example but I would like to change the value of "start" and " length" of sample signal but I cant get the data to show again. I tried diferent options, like put another event source inside of event case "array 2".
I could join case 1 and 2, but the problem is with "start and lenght" control, I can`t get its display when i change the values.
I created a example since its part of my program, to simulate the similar way i need.
Thank in advance, Fred.

You need to wire up the value of Array 2 to the output tunnel of the event case. Currently, that output tunnel is set to "Use Default if Unwired". So since you didn't wire up that tunnel, the value going into the shift register will become an empty array.
That's one thing I am totally paranoid about. I hate that the tunnels in an event structure are "Use Default if Unwired" by default, yet they don't show that little dot that suggests that it is.
Of course they do! What makes you say they don't?
I actually like the current behavior, especially for the boolean going to the stop button. I would not want to wire it in all the other cases where the loop should not stop.
Maybe the behavior could be a bit fine-tuned. Automatic "Use default if unwired" should only apply to scalars. Tunnels for arrays and clusters, etc. should require a manual "use default if unwired" setting.
Ha - it's because of my own paranoia about the "Default if Unwired" that led me to believe this. I guess I always have something wired to every single case so I haven't seen it in ages. I created one just now and specifically looked for the dot, and when I added a second case, there it was. Of course if I wire something to that second case, it disappears.

Still need help with case sensitive strings

Hello guy! Sorry to trouble you with the same problem again,
but i still need help!
"I am trying to create a scrypt that will compare a String
with an editable text that the user should type to match that
String. I was able to do that, but the problem is that is not case
sensitive, even with the adobe help telling me that strings are
case sensitive. Do you guys know how to make that comparison match
only if all the field has the right upper and lower case letters?
on exitframe
if field "t:texto1" = "Residencial Serra Verde"then
go to next
end if
end
|----> thats the one Im using!"
There were 2 replys but both of them didnt work, and the
second one even made the director crash, corrupting even previously
files that had nothing to do with the initial problem..
first solution given --
If you put each item that you are comparing into a list, it
magically
makes it case sensitive. Just put list brackets around each
item.
on exitframe
if [field "t:texto1"] = ["Residencial Serra Verde"] then
go to next
end if
end
Second solution given--
The = operator is not case-sensitive when used on strings,
but the < and > operators are case-sensitive.
So another way to do this is to check if the string is
neither greater than nor less than the target string:
vExpected = "Residencial Serra Verde"
vInput = field "t:texto 1"
if vExpected < vInput then
-- ignore
else if vExpected > vInput then
-- ignore
else
-- vExpected is a case-sensitive match for vInput
go next
end if
So any new solutions??
Thanks in advance!!
joao rsm

The first solution does in fact work and is probably the most
efficient way
of doing it. You can verify that it works by starting with a
new director
movie and adding a field named "t:texto1" into the cast with
the text
"Residencial Serra Verde" in the field. Next type the
following command in
the message window and press Enter
put [field "t:texto1"] = ["Residencial Serra Verde"]
You will see it return 1 which means True. Next, make the R
in the field
lower case and execute the command in the message window, it
will return 0
(true).
Now that you know this works, you need to dig deeper in your
code to find
what the problem is. Any more info you can supply?

Help with case suggestion

I need the searching power of the Apple Community, for my efforts have produced few results!
I was a blackberry user (the 8310 Curve) and I really liked the case I had. Leather case, magnetic strap, swivel clip and I was able to pull the phone out whenever I needed to.
I am trying to find something similar if not exactly like this for the iphone. Slim is nice, but I really want that swivel clip so that I can angle the case and pull out the phone whenever i need too. (I see some cases have a strap overtop)
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

It depends on your budget. I plumped for one of these http://www.vajacases.com/ as i've had them in the past and the quality is top notch. However, I couldn't decide between two different ones so I also went with one of these as well and i'll chop & change as & when I feel like a change. I couldn't resist as they look so cool http://www.miniot.com/miniot/index.htm
I also like the blackberry cases, however, i've found that the belt clip doesn't last all that long. One has broken on me and the second one is on it's way out now. The first option from vaja sounds more like what you are looking for though. Hope this helps.

Need help with case cracking - Defect?

I have a macbook (white) a1181 that I purchased in 2008...
I handle my computers very delicatly and if they travel with me, they are packed very well with support...
The body (case) of the laptop back by the fan underneath has a long hairline crack.
There is also one where the front lip is as well.
NOW,
Apple Genius Bar wants ME to pay outright to get it fixed.
It was not my fault at all!!!!! And it was not accidental damage either.
SO I called Apple who wouldn't help me because I don't have phone support Or apple care. So if I pay the $50 for phone support, they'll tell me the same thing they told me in the store the operator told me.
FIRST OFF, I didn't know that my Apple Care expired and even if I had it, it wouldn't really help me I was told...
I paid so much money for this laptop and scrimped and saved up and I feel like I'm being dragged through the mud.
I need to contact someone higher-up ASAP - this is absolutely ridiculous.
I did not do anything to cause this cracking..
I am so upset as I really saved up for years for this computer only for 3-4 years later for it to be cracking worse and worse. I paid so much...
Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
aj

Help with Server Structure and File Identification / Test vs Remote vs Local

I inherited a website at a new job. I have 0 experience with building websites, let alone DW and have only been through the beginning tutorial. I feel I am ready to make my first edits to the website.
We have two servers, test and remote. I have files saved in C: under wamp folder. When I am connected to test server, the folder structure doesnt change, but the folders turn red. If the folders are not red, I am working from the local file? If the folders turn red, I am working from the Testing Server copy? And if so with the red folders, why is the file path still the same, C:\wamp etc...?
Thanks -
John

Sounds about right.
I have my local site folder inside WAMP/www/ so when I save local files in DW, they're immediately saved in the testing server. This also allows me to see parsed content in Live View or Live Code.
