How do i activate a 3 way valve using lab-view ????

I am trying to automate a miniature punch press by connecting it to a computer having labview. this is done thro a 3 way valve which is in turn connected to an air compressor.
I would like to know how i wud be able to control the valve using lab view ?

Your question reads like;
"I would like to know how I can drive a car using my hands?"
Please provide the details on the value (inputs/outputs) and the type of hardware you are using to act on the valve.
Trying to help!

    Hi,
    We are doing UPS project. In this project we have to shutdown the PC if there is a battery low condition. I want to know whether is their any library function in Lab View to shutdown the PC. And also we want make this labview to run in background whenever PC turns ON, is their any way to make Lab View VI to run in background process. We are also planning to send UPS Status through SMS message to specified mobile number using modem, is their any way to do this using Lab View. Please help me in this regards.

    I would be interested in knowing how you can decouple the obpmlogviewer.exe app from the OBPM Enterprise installation.
    How can I send a simple .zip file to others and tell them: "hey, unzip (or install) this only and you will be able to read OBPM engine logs files on your local machine" ?
    The logViewer executable can't be run without an enterprise install (at least not easily decoupled), however, an alternative, would be to pass someone the .jnlp and some log files.... To do this, open up the process admin, and in the top right, is a link for 'Launch Log Viewer'. Open that, and then go to 'File - Save As', and this will save a java executable to your computer.
    I'm pretty sure you can pass that, and either an admin user and password to view 'live' logs, or just have them cancel the remote log, and open a local file....
    Adam,
    PS: I don't see any opbmlogreader.exe or .sh or .bet in the OBPM_HOME\bin directory. I am looking at OBPM standalone, and the only relevant files I can see are obpmlogviewer.exe , obpmlogviewer.lax , lax.jar. Am I missing something?
    MaxI too don't have the log reader, however I do remember it... I'm thinking the .sh might only be included in the linux distribution of enterprise, so I'm downloading that now to verify... I will let you know what I find...

  • How to control a NI USB 6210 from a Lab View program?

    Hi,
    I started today with Lab View with some earlier experience long ago.
    While it took me only about half an hour to get my first program running (great), installation time nor included (of course), I meanwhile read documents for some hours and cannot find out how to control measurement hardware in Lab View.
    I want to use a USB 6210 to set a 1-bit digital port. But at the moment there is no USB6210 available so I wanted to write (or do you say draw ?) the program without it and if possible simulate the hardware.
    I drew DAQ Assistant into my block diagram and selected digital line output but get "No supported devices found". I don't know if the appropriate driver was installed during Lab View installation.
    Also I don't understand the mechanism between DAQmx, tasks and the real hardware. Now I have a "Digital Bool 1Line 1Point" Control in my block diagram. How do signals get from program flow to hardware pin? How can I create a simulation for not connected hardware?
    Any help is greatly welcome
    Thanks a lot

    Launch MAX, it was known as Measurement and Automation Explorer, there should be a shortcut in your start menu / desktop.  Under devices and interfaces you can find your hardware and open test panels to control it.  This is the first place to ensure your hardware is working.  If the device isn't seen you'll need to install the drivers and DAQmx software.  If it is there, great.
    Now launch LabVIEW.  The easiest way to control hardware is using the DAQ Assistant.  It has many limitations and isn't recommended for large applications.  But for something quick and dirty it works fine.  You'll find it under the Measurement I/O >> NI DAQmx palette on the block diagram.  If it isn't there you may need to reinstall the DAQmx drivers.  This can happen if you installed DAQmx before LabVIEW.
    Also you'll find under Help >> Find Examples on the toolbar, many examples on controlling hardware.  Feel free to post some code if  you are having problems.

  • How to make Multiple column listbox in CS4 using tree view

    Hi ,
    I am a beginer in Indesign Cs4 plug-in creation.In one scenario i want to create multiple column listbox,i tried with one cloumn using tree view and that is working fine.so suggest how to create multiple column listbox using tree view.
    thanks
    Arun

    InDesign does not have a native multi-column widget. You have three options:
    1) Use the treeview widget and align your widgets in the tree node to create the illusion of columns (stroke panel is an example - the Links panel in CS4 is a better example)
    2) Go the way of the CellPanel SDK example and tweek it to work like a listbox
    3) Create the User Interface in Flex

  • How to show madatory fields on form that uses a view?

    Hello everyone,
    I am using a view to create a form. After I have created the form I modified a column in one of the tables so that it is not null. Now that I have already created a form how can I show that it is mandatory.I know that APEX does this automatically if any fields are not null before I create the form. But how can I modify it now since I've already created the form and the not null field is not being shown as mandatory..
    Also is there a custom way to show that the field is mandatory when user doesn't enter any value for that field? Right it shows the oracle error.
    Thanks,
    Nehal

    Hi Nahal,
    It's two-step process:
    Step 1: Change the label template on the field to "Required Label" or "Required Label with Help".
    Step 2: Add an Item Validation on the page for the field, and choose the validation method "Item Not Null"

  • How to determine the slew rate of an amplifier using lab view

    gud evening all
    I have an op amp circuit built on the NI ELVIS board and I input a square wave from function generator to the circuit. I have to determine the slew rate of the op amp.In the labs, one would run the square wave over a range of frequencies and stop when the square wave looks like a triangular wave. At that frequency, one would then measure the slope of the signal and that will give you the slew rate. How can I do that in LabVIEW? How can I check when my square wave starts looking like a triangular wave? please help
    good
    good

    thank you johnsold
    i designed a voltage follower using 741, on an Ni elvis instrument. i can manually do the slew rate experiment by varying the frequency range on the coasre frequency knob( using a square wave) of the function generator until the slew rate occurs at 0.5volts, my problem is how can i do the same experiment with built in vi in labview with out touching the knob on the function generator and once the triangular wave starts to show the lab view program will automatically stop.

  • Is there a way using lab view objects to let an object that is contained within another object get access to its owner?

    I've been playing with lvoop for 4 or 5 months now, and in general I like it very much, but I've repeatedly wanted to build classes that know something about who owns them and I can't figure out how to make this happen.
    The simple example I've been thinking about is imagine having a person class which contains a car class. Now say that I get an instance of a car class and I want to ask it who its owner is. In C++, I'd do this by giving the car class a pointer to the person class it belongs to. (Of course you have to worry about car objects that don't belong to anyone in which case the pointer has to point to NULL.)
    I've tried copying this idea by giving the car class a data value reference to a person class, but when I dereference the reference using an in place loop and call a method on it I get data from the moment the reference was made and not the current data of the person class.
    I realize this is sorta breaking data flow so maybe it's not possible on purpose?

    Yes, LVOOP uses value based references, and when you split the wire to write the owner you created a data copy. The function you're after requires you do use a DVR for all class functions in which case you'll get reference based OOP, which is more familiar coming from text based OOP.
    It just so happens that G# uses that approach, take a look at it.

  • Using Lab view ver 6,How can I read a cell of excel file right after I write to it

    How can I read a specif cell of an Excel file using Labview VI.

    Hi,
    Attached is a LV6.1 VI which will read a cell.
    It will be looking for a sub VI found in the example C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW\examples\comm\ExcelExamples.ll​b.
    The returned value is a string value but there is no reason why it couldn't be a number. Just connect a numeric to the type connector of the Variant to Data function.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to identify the employee who logged-in using a view in peoplesoft?

    I have a View in peoplesoft, that says
    SUPERVISOR_ID = ' ' somewhere in the SQL. How do I keep this dynamic so that, it will identify the employee who logs into the system and assigns that id to supervisor_id field.
    I know we can use %EmployeeID in peoplecode.

    Peopletools has this built in out of the box. Add field OPRID to the record and set it as key and not a listitem and Peopletools will automatically add a where clause to the view based on the current user.
    After this change the view sql to join to Oprid.
    If you do not want to add OPRID field you can use a dynamic view to fill the supervisorid with %employeeid.
    If thid is a search record you can also use SearchInit event to set supervisorid to %employeeid.
    Al lot of differt possibilities, depends one what you want to use.

  • How to change the parameter 'Default Servers To Use For Viewing And Modification' using java api dynamically.

    Hi,
    I need to change the Crystal Reports setting 'Default Servers To Use For Viewing And Modification' to a particular server.this i need to do using java api.
    could you pls provide me the sample code for this.
    Regards
    Srinivas

    The IReport interface extends IViewingServerGroupInfo interface, that allows you to specify the server group. 
    The choice selection for that interface is as follows:  0 = first available, 1 = prefer the selected server group, and 2 =  only use the selected server group.
    The server group selection is by the SI_ID for that server group InfoObject.

  • How to use t-shark (wireshark ) using lab view??

    i want to use tshark using labview to extract RTCP sender and reciever reports and put them into strings so i can log and graph the Delay and jitter and loss packets by the time
    iam using windows Xp 
    Pleaaase help

    You can either setup wireshark to log that traffic and post process the log file or you will have to interface to the WinPCap driver that Wireshark is using to sniff the network traffic. There has been some work done to interface to WinPCap here in the past but the project has to my knowledge never gone to a fully fledged state, so I would expect you to have to do some work on that level too.
