How can I programatically modify a teststand sequence global in Labview ?

Hello,
I am automating some tasks using Labiew to modify data in a Teststand sequence file. How can I programatically modify the value of a Sequence Global from labview ?
Thanks,
Sam

You have to pass in the TestStand variable RunState.ThisContext to the vi through the connector pane. I'm not sure about the exact variable name because I don't have TestStand loaded at this time. But there is a variable for the sequence context in TestStand and this has to be passed to the vi. Note that you cannot run the vi stand alone. You must run it from TestStand in order to get the proper sequence context.

How can I programatically get the TestStand version?

I want to programatically get my Teststand version. Can I get this from inside a LabVIEW VI? I'm writing a VI that produces a Software Description Document and one of the things I want in there is my TestStand version.

You can use the Engine.Version to get a string of the version number. This is useful for a string for display information.
For more detailed information, you can use the following properties:
Engine.MajorVersion
Engine.MinorVersion
Engine.RevisionVersion

How can I programatically identify PDF files with embedded images?

Our company has 27,266,949 .PDF files that we're planning to compress in order to save server space.
We don't want to compress any of the .PDF files that have embedded images as to not alter the image's state.
How can we programatically create a list to exclude from the compression process?

Ah, see told you we were new to this and no, my taxs already have enough digits to the balance.
Ok, so based on that, we should be able to use the preflighting tool to identify the PDF’s with images, factor them out, and then continue with lossless compression on the remaining balance.
That will give us the compression we need to save space, but also allow us to stand in the court of law (if the scenario was to ever occur) and proclaim that none of our medical images have ever been altered by compression.
Sound like a reasonable plan?

HT1338 How can I sort folders in descending sequence

How can I sort folders in descending sequence?

There are two display options in the Finder, Arrangement and Sort. They are both under the same menu item/toolbar button. A regular click brings up the Arrangement menu. Holding down the option (alt) key brings up the Sort menu.
Except for Arrange by Name, all of the Arrangements are groupings. It groups the items by whatever criteria you chose. Within the groups, you can sort the items by other criteria.
If you arrange by Name, you can't sort by anything else.
Also, with an Arrangement set, you cannot adjust the sort direction.
To control the sort direction, set Arrangement to None, and sort by Name. Open the List view of that folder and click on the sort triangle in the column header.

How can I decouple the pagination for a global region?

I was having a delightful time using a common region defined on a global page when I determined that pagination setting was begin carried from one page to the next. Arghhhh! So for example, if I have paged to the second set (page) of rows (11-20) on Page 1 and then I go to Page 2, the second set (page) of rows (11-20) is displayed there. If I go to a page which only has a first set of rows (1-10), I get the pagination error "Invalid set of rows requested, the source data of the report has been modified. Reset Pagination". And when I click to reset, it just repeats the error. [I suppose it tries to display the second set or rows (11-20) again -- which doesn't exist. What's that saying about insanity?]
How can I decouple the pagination for a global region? I want it to operarate just as it would if it were not sharing a common region. So if I'm looking at rows (11-20) on page 1, I can go to any other page beginning with rows 1-10 there. Then return to page 1 where I left off with rows 11-20 displayed. One solution is NOT to paginate but that's not my preferred solution.

The fact that there are different numbers of rows returned on different pages implies that the reports have some local page dependencies, so why try to use a global component? What's the actual requirement? How many pages does the report have to appear on? (Please say it is a report and not a tabular form...)
How can I decouple the pagination for a global region? I want it to operarate just as it would if it were not sharing a common region.
The point is that a global region is just that: a single region that happens to be displayed on multiple pages. It does not create multiple instances of a region on different pages. (Specifically, a region has a single region ID, and this is used to reference it whether it appears on one page or all of them. The region ID is used by the report for the purposes of AJAX refresh, pagination etc.)
A similar situation was discussed a long time ago. I'm rather surprised that Scott regarded it as a bug: the fact that it doesn't seem to have been "fixed" or have a bug number attached may indicate that the others on the APEX team disagreed with him? I haven't tried the workaround he suggested, however I don't think it's likely to be prove a useful line of attack for your issue, as (1) it resets pagination rather than preserving it; and (2) it doesn't appear to be compatible with the AJAX PPR pagination used in more recent versions of APEX.
I can't see any straightforward "solution" (largely because I don't think there's really a problem: the exhibited behaviour is exactly how I expect/want global regions to behave). Pagination processing is undocumented. The current 4.2 apex.widget.report.paginate JS method is specifically annotated as "for internal use only". Search the forum for custom pagination techniques. Messy looking hacks for IRs have previously been suggested.
So if I'm looking at rows (11-20) on page 1, I can go to any other page beginning with rows 1-10 there. Then return to page 1 where I left off with rows 11-20 displayed. One solution is NOT to paginate but that's not my preferred solution.
Assuming that there aren't too many pages involved, the other obvious option is to create unique regions on the required pages. You can achieve some level of reusability by creating SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query) reports based on an external function so that there's only a single SQL source to be maintained.
Explain the requirement in more detail. Pagination is not the only option for reducing the quantity of displayed information. Often it's better to display some of all of the data, rather than all of some of it...

Yes, there are VIs for acquiring data from Sound cards. And examples too. If you don't have LabVIEW yet, do a search on NI's site for example VIs.

How can I separate Left and right audio channels in labview 8.5 tia sal22

How can I separate Left and right audio channels in labview
8.5 tia sal22
Greetings All
I have a working Labview vi that converts a math formula to an
audio signal. I would like to have the
right and left audio channels playing different math audio signals is this
possible?
Example
Right channel -> plays the audio signal created by a math
formula
Left channel -> plays the audio signal created by another
math formula with adjustable phase control
I’ve included a VI with a working audio and math formula but
I’m not sure how to separate the left and right channels.
I’m using labview 8.5
I looked up a similar question on the
support board and it said” use an instance of the the Sound Output Write that
has a 1D waveform data type input (i.e. Sound Output Write (DBL)). Each
element in the array would correspond to a channel.”
But I’m not exactly sure what he meant. I’m using a formula to generate the wave file

Sorry it took so long to get back. Here's the new VI with it splitting out the left and right channels.
I'm using a Gigaport HD 8 output usb audio device but I'm experience clicks and pops. I increase the buffers
but I still get the clicks and pops. I know gigaport HD can use ASIO drivers which most likely would solve the problem but one needs to code in C for this which I'm not proficient in. Can someone recommend a work around to prevent this clicks and pops, can I somehow change my VI to fix this? Does anyone have a VI that will allow access to the ASIO latency properties?
I'm using labview 8.5
And a gigaport HD which is a USB audio device which outputs 8 analog signals (it is ASIO compatible)

If you are trying to use In/Out port functions that come with LabVIEW they will not work with NT. I think the AccessHW file at the following link will fix that problem:

and do some searchs at NI.com for parallel port, you should find some more usefull info.

How can I determine the liquid level in a bottle (LabView Vision)?

How can I determine the liquid level in a bottle (LabView Vision)? Does anybody have an example code? The task is, that if liqid level is between two predetermined level, the program writes, that it is correct else it writes incorrect. Thank you.

here is a little play with your bad picture:
used only the small field of interest (here a guess) ,
used only the red channel ( takes out most of the light reflection)
grey scale, 3x(blurr, median filter) , played with contrast -gamma - saturation
now you need to add the edge detection and some sort of scale.

How do I find the path to a TestStand sequence file using LabVIEW

My LabVIEW application launches a bunch of teststand sequences, provided it has the complete path to each of them. I want to make it more flexible by providing it just the name of the TestStand sequence so that it will go and find the path to the sequence by searching a directory structure. TestStand has a neat FindFile() function that can do this, but I need to do this from within LabVIEW. Is there a way to do it?

There are a few ways to do this depending on how you are getting the sequence files. If you are calling the GetSequenceFileEx method, you can just pass the GetSeqFile_FindFile (0x20) flag in the SequenceFileFlags property. If you are using the ApplicationMgr.OpenSequenceFile method, this is automatically done for you.
If you want to use the FindFile function in general, you can use the Engine.FindFile method.

How can I programatically add items to an ExpressionEdit ComboBox?

Items can be statically added using the ActiveX Properities/ComboBoxItems. How can this be done programatically from C#? I am using C# 2008 and TestStand 4.1.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Doug-
That was the answer. I was missing an assembly reference which was why I wasn't able to use the ExpressionEdit.ComboBoxItems methods. I had "NationalInstruments.TestStand.Interop.UI.AxControls" reference in my project but also needed to have "NationalInstruments.TestStand.Interop.UI" and "NationalInstruments.TestStand.Interop.Ui.Support" assemblies. ExpressionEdit.ComboBoxItems.Insert() is working fine now.
Without your input, I wouldn't have gone back to examine my references. Thanks.

Thanks Ned, but the moment I bought it I did it wrong and when they offerded me to choose one version I picked up "Windows" instead of "Mac" by mistake... now I can't find the way to modify it.

How can I use TrueSequenceFactory with multiple sequences

In the post "How to use existing Oracle sequences using KODO" answered
by Marc Prud'hommeaux a "sample code" was given. But seems to me that
example will only work with a single Oracle sequence for the entire
system. Is this right?
How can I use TrueSequenceFactory with primary-keys and their
respective existing sequences? Can you (SolarMetric guys) provide me a
sample code?

The problem is that you are using application-identity. When you
specify an objectid-class, we treat is automatically as application
identity. To resolve this, I would recommend removing both the
objectid-class and identity-type atributes from your class. With
"objectid-class" in place, we asssume that you wil take care of identity.

Well, I'll show what I have...
This is the script of my table:
CREATE TABLE LINEUP_VOYAGE (
VOYAGEID NUMBER (10) NOT NULL,
VESSEL_NAME VARCHAR2 (1000) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT PK_LINEUP_VOYAGE
PRIMARY KEY ( VOYAGEID ) ) ;
This is an excerpt of my .jdo file:
<class name="LineupVoyage" objectid-class="LineupVoyageId"
identity-type="datastore">
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="table" value="LINEUP_VOYAGE"/>
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="sequence"
value="LINEUP_VOYAGEID_SEQ"/>
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="pk-column" value="VOYAGEID"/>
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="lock-column" value="none"/>
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="class-column" value="none"/>
<field name="vesselName">
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="data-column"
value="VESSEL_NAME"/>
</field>

</class>
As you can see, the "id" field is commented.
And this is my class:
package br.com.fertimport.entity;
import java.util.*;
public class LineupVoyage {
     private String vesselName;
//     private long id;
//     public LineupVoyage(long id) { this.id = id; }
//     public long getId() { return id; }
//     public void setId(long id) { this.id = id; }
     public String getVesselName() { return vesselName; }
     public void setVesselName (String vesselName) { this.vesselName =
vesselName; }
The "id" attribute is commented.
Now the questions...
To use ClassSequenceFactory must the identity-type of my entities be
application or datastore?
Is the "objectid-class" parameter required in this case?
As you see, all references to the "id" property are commented. Can I
use this property to represent my object id?
If not, how can I identify my object with something like a long?
The last question is related to my architecture: one VM with the EJBs
(entity and session) and another VM with the web classes and JSPs,
connected by a session facade. I don't want to use any Kodo or JDO stuff
in the web tier. Is this possible?
