Help with Controlling the HP E1411B multimeter with LabView

Hi -
I'm using LabView 7.1, and trying to control the HP E1411B multimeter in a Textronix VX1410 frame, using a VXI-MXI-2 interface.  I've read that this is a register based device, which means what?  I can't control it using the VISA method in LabView?  I've been successful in this with other devices, so I'm guessing it can't be done because it doesn't work.  I also downloaded both the drivers for this device from the driver database, and neither work.  I can't seem to figure out to nake them work either.  Can anyone help?  I just want to use the MM to make simple measurements and display them in LabView.  If I wanted to create my own driver, what would be the best way to communicate with it?  Thanks.
Charlie

 Sir,
   I want to make automatic test setup for testing accelerometer. My resources are Test station PC with windows 2000, Agilent E1401B High power mainframe with slot 0 controller, Slot 0 controller is NI VXI-MXI-2 controller, shaker etc. MXI-2 bus begins at PCI at the PC and goes to VXI backplane. Agilent E1401B cage have Agilent E1411B 51/2 Multimeter (in slot 3), Etec Test Head Support Module (slot 2), Etec Digital stimulus response module, ETEC test head I/O panel etc. we have old version labview-2009. using labview i want to control my test whole setup.
     Procedure for test setup is that i need to give power supply to shaker. Also i have to give input signal of 1kHz to shaker for vibration. Accelerometer will be mounted on shaker. Accelerometer output voltage has to be measured with agilent DMM E1411B in VXI cage.
I have installed NI-VISA n NI-VXI driver and i was trying to program it using visa VIs in LABVIEW, but couldn't succeed.
First, i am trying to make a simple program which can read resistance and voltage from HP E1411B DMM. There is difficulties in using VISA Out and VISA In VI. to measure DC voltage value from DMM, how should i give command to DMM using VISA out, because input to VISA out is numerial value so how can i give command to DMM. VISA In has only input offset and address space, so how will i know that which offset setting will show voltage value.

    Please check with new version of TFTPD 32 server. The error may be due to older version of TFPT server, the new version available solved this error. Files are getting uploaded with no issues.
    1. Download tftpd32b.zip from:
    http://tftpd32.jounin.net/tftpd32_download.html
    2. Copy the tftpd32b.zip file into an empty directory and extract it.
    3. Copy the file you want to transver into the directory containing tftpd32.exe.
    4. Run tftpd32.exe from that directory. The "Base Directory" field should show the path to the directory containing the file you want to transfer.
    At this point, the tftpserver is ready to begin serving files. As devices request files, the main tftpd32 window will log the requests.

  • Need help in controlling a video (play/pause) with the main play bar in Cp7.

    In a presentation, I'm doing an online ordering demo - my slide(s) have a video object, audio clip and may have various text and/or shapes that will transition from time to time. The problem being, if Pause is clicked in the main/TOC play bar, the presentation pauses but the video continues to play, until the end of that video. My video is an .f4v (I've also tried it as an .flv).
    What can i do to allow the main play bar to control the video?

    Insert as Slide video, not as Event video.  Then the playbar will also control the video.

  • Af:ConvertDateTime how to control the year to start with 19xx or 20xx

    Hi,
    I am facing an issue. I have a af:inputDate component with af:convertDateTime with pattern MM/dd/yyyy and secondary pattern= MMddyyyy.
    The issue is when the date is entered as 101147 the date gets converted to 10/11/2047 but the user wants it to be converted to 10/11/1947
    Th requirement is if the two digits entered for year(yy) is less than the last two digits current year(2011) the year should be 20yy else it should be 19yy
    example: if entered date is 052104 it should get converted to 05/21/2004
    if entered date is 062198 it should get converted to06/21/1998
    if the entered date is 07132009 it should be 07/13/2009 (no conversion here)
    if the entered date is 07131986 it should be 07/13/1986 (no conversion here)
    Kindly reply

    This one is a tricky problem - a side-effect of JSF doing a lot of things automatically is that sometimes it does too much.
    I don't have a great solution, but here's a couple of ideas:
    (1) Try using multiple <h:form>s on your page (not nested one inside the other, but separate). Data will only get updated in the form that contains the button that got pressed.
    (2) Use an intermediate model layer, and discard updates as appropriate.
    Neither of these are beautiful solutions - the second is way ugly - but they might help. Long-range, I'd love to see something like "subforms" supported in JSF that can provide finer grained control over what gets processed (validations, model pushes, etc.) and what doesn't without resorting to the blunt hammer of multiple HTML forms.
    I'm a little confused about "the model is updated with the value of the components whenever the form is submitted, and regardless of whether the value of the components has changed or not.", because JSF is checking the old value and using ".equals()" to see if its changed. Note, however, that it's not caching the old value across the request, but simply going back to the model on the subsequent request, which may (or may not) explain the behavior you're seeing.

  • Can I control the plug ins parameters with a single knob?

    I have a question for garageband users. I have the iControl from m-audio to control the paramteters of a plug in but most of the times the knobs don't correspond and it takes a lot of times to figure out which knob controls what. So I use iControl mainly for play rec and the scroll wheel is very helpful. I also use metric halo ChannelStrip and it has a lot of parameters. With this plug in and many other when you put the mouse over a knob you can control it by turning the arrow up down, I find this very imprecise and I would like something else. Is it possible to click with the mouse on a parameter knob of a plug in and increase or decrease it with an external knob?
    I don't know if my question is clear, may be it's possible to do that with some midi programmation?
    Thanks in adavance for all input

    You have an overdetermined system. To exactly define one of three states, only two booleans are needed.
    Test for too low and too high and if both are false we are automatically in range, right?
    Here's what you could do.

    Please let me know, how should l develop the VI for all? How to get started?, any helpful links? If there is any example code?
    Its little urgent !

    If you are not familiar with LV, I would suggest you go through the tutorials. Then take the leap and figure out how to use Action Engines and State Machines (search any of the terms I used that don't understand, there are a zillion threads on them).
    Then...
    Sit down and write stand-alone testers for each of the widgets you are going to control monitor etc.
      These testers will give you an idea if they really work the way you think, their character, and will serve as a "Sanity Check" when you think you are going crazy  durring development.
    THen integrate the tester so they can all work at the same time. This will become a utility screen that will serve you well when maintaining the critter latter in its life.
    Only then...
    write out a complete set of state diagrams that describe what you plan to do (don't cheat! ) and walk through them in your head until you are cetain it will all work blah blah blah.
    This step is optional but highly recomened...
    Compose a detailed set of documemtns describing what you have in mind and post them here (include the images, they will get many mor readers) and let people  pick aprat your design.
    When you have a final design, use everything you learned along the way to be a kick-ass developer.
    Along the way post distinct well defined question on this site and as long as it looks like you are trying someone will probably reply and get you going again.

  • Controling the MC or animation with the mouse moviment

    Hi folks... how are you?
    I need some help... I did a cube on the 3DMAX and exported as
    SWF and imported on flash... the animation i've made on the 3dmax
    is working... my question is... there is a way to control the cube
    moviment? like when mouse move to the right the cube moves to the
    right and same for left side? i put a picture on each cube's face
    and planing to use as a kind of menu.
    Tks a lot

    Any way we can see this cube? Do you have this uploaded
    anywhere?
    If you are using the imported cube as a symbol, and give it
    an instance name, you should be able to add a few lines of code to
    move it with the mouse. But it doesn't sound as though this is what
    you want. You want to control the full rotation. Maybe you need to
    use your imported swf as a template for redrawing the cube in
    Illustrator/Flash.

  • [partly SOLVED] Controlling the uswsusp s2both feature with acpid

    Hi,
    I am currently using uswsusp on my laptop to suspend to both disk and RAM, which works flawlessly by using the
    $ s2both
    command.
    Now, I would like to use acpid to execute that command and also lock my screen using my display manager which is xdm, whenever I close the lid of my laptop and resume once I open it again.
    passing
    acpi_listen
    and then closing and opening the lid gives me:
    button/lid LID close
    button/lid LID open
    Next I created the following file: /etc/acpi/events/lid_close
    It contains:
    event=button/lid LID close.*
    action=/etc/acpi/actions/lid_close.sh "%e"
    The problem is, that I have no idea what the corresponding lid_close.sh script would need to look like in order to do what I want it to do.
    I'm aware that I would need an additional event file for the opening of the lid and a corresponding script, but for now I would be happy with automating the suspension/lock process and resuming manually using the power button.
    Hopefully you can help me with this.
    Thanks in advance.

    Ok.
    my /etc/acpi/events/anything file now looks like this:
    # Pass all events to our one handler script
    event=button/lid LID close.*
    action=/etc/acpi/handler.sh %e
    My /etc/acpi/handler.sh looks like this
    button/lid)
    case "$3" in
    close)
    #echo "LID closed!">/dev/tty5
    s2both
    open)
    #echo "LID opened!">/dev/tty5
    esac
    and it works!
    Didn't think it would be that easy. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction nierro!
    Now I just need to figure out how to return to xdm instead of my WM upon resume.

  • Photoshop sliced layout output are table base,  do it can control the position by CSS with div?

    Dear all,
    I have make some image in Photoshop, and sliced it to html
    page, but open it in dreamweaver it show me the table layout that
    Photoshop Sliced maked ..
    I am wonder, now many web site are integration with CSS, and
    I had saw some total using CSS with div maked Web Site, how to
    control the sliced image after that Photoshop sliced it?
    Any simple example for newbie reference?
    And sorry of my poor English.

    It seems you have exported the html from photoshop into
    Dreamweaver.
    This is not the best way to build a page. You should slice up
    your images
    and then export the images only into a folder. You then build
    the page
    using these exported images in your table or css layout. You
    can place the
    images directly into table cells or divs or use them as
    background images
    via css.

  • Trouble with getting the wireless to work with HP Laserjet P1102w printer

    Hi really struggling 
    I just bought the HP Laserjet P1102w as it was advised that it would run my apple products (Mac OS 10.6  Snow Leopard laptop and ipad). 
    I have mangaed to set up printer to work using the USB cable to the laptop. Success.
    BUT i am finding it impossible to get it to work with wireless on any devices.
    I get as far as network selection in set up and nothing is in the list (unlike USB which has the printer named) - so i click the 'create' button and input my network/SSID  code , which is a BTHub. I assume this is correct?  Or is it an address to be found elsewhere ?   I have downloaded driver and software (update HP Firmware utility)
     which I believe to be correct from the HP.com website for the operating sytem of the mac. 
    I have also followed a number of videos but often the process does not follow the video sequences. 
    I have tried to speak to PC Word  'know how team' who sold me the printer but they had no knowledge at all to help this situation.   Any help would be much appreciated - this seems l ongoing problem for some other  users. 

    Hi @bgriffiths60 ,
    I understand that you are having issues setting up the printer over the wireless network. I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue.
    To check your network Encryption type, go to the Apple, System Preferences, Network, click the Advanced button/double click the network name. (shows WEP or WPA)
    To check the network password follow these steps:
    On the Apple menu bar, click Go, select Applications, Utilities, Keychain Access, double click the network name,
    check the box to show the password, type in your Mac password to view it. (some networks have a shortcut password setup)
    Make sure Safari is set as the default browser. Sometimes the Embedded Web Server won't open in other browsers.
    Open Safari, across the top select the Safari menu, select Preferences, General, set as default.
    Restore the printer defaults: Turn the printer off, hold down the wireless button and cancel (x button) while turning the printer back on and don't release the two buttons until the printer stops making noise.
    Print out a configuration report and make sure the SSID and IPv4 address are cleared.
    HP LaserJet Pro P1102 and P1106/P1108 Printer Series - Printing a Configuration Page.
    Go to the Apple, System Preferences, Print and Fax.
    Double click on the P1102w.
    Open the Utility.
    Click Printer Setup.
    Click HTML config.
    This should open the Embedded Web Server for the printer.
    Click the Networking tab.
    Click Wireless from the list on the left.
    Under Communication Mode , click Infrastructure.
    Select your network SSID from the Available Network Names (SSID) list and then click the << button so the network name moves over to other box.
    From the Security Mode pop-up menu under Authentication , click WEP, WPA/WPA2 or open . Your selection depends on which Wireless Security Protocol your network uses.
    Make sure you select either hexadecimal or alpha depending on your password. (very important)
    Apply the settings.
    In the confirmation box (changes have been saved), click OK.
    You should get a solid blue light on the printer shortly.
    Then all we have to do is delete the USB driver and add the network driver.
    Click on the Apple.
    Click System Preferences.
    Click the Print and Fax icon.
    Highlight the printer and click on the - sign to delete the printer. (USB driver)
    Disconnect the USB cable.
    Then click the + sign and select the printer from the list and click add. (P1102w Bonjour)
    Test the printer.
    If you have any issues with the HTML config opening then do the following steps:
    Close any applications.
    On the Apple menu bar, click Go, Computer, MAC harddrive, Library, Printers, HP, LaserJet, click on folder for your printer, click on EWS browser or HTML config, click the Networking tab, click wireless on the left and fill out your information. (make sure infrastructure is selected) Apply settings.
    Then delete the USB driver and add the network printer.
    If there is anything else that I can help you with just let me know.
    Have a nice day!
