How do I get an SCXI-1121 to turn on its output analog voltage?

I don't know if this is operator error or a hardware problem. I have never used an SCXI-1121 before to provide power to an instrument. The incoming signal on the 1121 responds like a champ when I drive the instrument from an external power supply, indicating all the connections are good. However, I guess I don't know the right Labview .vi to turn on the excitation voltage. Please help! Thanks, Bill

Bill-
A couple questions:
1) What sensor are you trying to measure?
2) What kind of excitation does it require?
3) Do you have NI-DAQ installed?
4) How are you reading this voltage?
5) Have you configured the chassis and data acquisition device in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX).
The best way to troubleshoot problems of this nature is in MAX. You can create a virtual channel and test it in MAX. To create a virtual channel, right click on the Data Neighborhood folder. Select create new, then NI-DAQmx global channel. Follow that wizard to create your custom channel. Then you can test it there (green test button).
Another thought, does your device require more current or voltage excitation than the SCXI 1121 can provide?
Voltage Excitation: 10V or 3.33V
Current Excitation: .15mA or .45mA
Hope this helps.

  • How do I get an iPod touch to turn on other than the normal way. It has been dropped and all I can get is a blank screen. Have tried holding the HOME button down for 30 sec. but that didn't work.

    How does one get an iPod nano to turn on other than the "normal" way? This one has been dropped and all I can get is a blank screen. I have tried holding down the HOME button to restart it but no go. When I connect it to my computer, I am told to enter the PASSCODE which I cannot do as there is no touchpad.

    David ..
    Your topic refers to an iPod touch
    Then you say:  How does one get an iPod nano to turn on ......
    If it's an iPod touch, try a reset.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, whether it's an iPod nano or touch, it probably needs service >  Apple - Support - Service Answer Center

  • How can I get my ipod touch to turn on or to charge?

    How can I get my ipod touch to turn on or charge?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • My laptop had to be reset to factory settings. prior to that i had all my itunes songs stored on a portable drive. how do i get itunes to recognize the drive as its library?

    my laptop had to be reset to factory settings. prior to that i had all my itunes songs stored on a portable drive. how do i get itunes to recognize the drive as its library?

    If the library file is on the external drive, hold <SHIFT> while launching iTunes.  When it prompts to select a library file or create a new one, point it to the location of the library file.
    If the library file was on the internal harddrive, easiest solution is to restore it from the backup.  If no backup exists, use File > Add Folder to library.  Also under Edit > Preferences > Advanced, change the library location unless you want iTunes to move the media to the internal drive.

    If you have exhausted your free trial period on your computer, even if you didn't actually get to try it, short of wiping and reinstalling your entire system from scratch you're not going to be able to extend the trial period.  If there was a way, there would be people who would take advantage and just never subscribe.

    My Iphone 4s is plugged in charging after it has fully died. Instead of the apple appearing and staying constant on the screen...the apple is blinking. What does this mean and how do I get the phone to charge/turn back on.

    - Try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Next try letting the battery fully drain. After charging for a least an hour try again
    - Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store, it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • How do I get multiple hyperlinks to diplay in a query output?

    I am using two tables to list all of the sport teams for a school. The sports table lists all of the team data grouped by gender. The second table uses the sportID from the first table to associate the team with a schedule.  The problem is not all teams have a schedule yet.
    I am trying to display a link for those teams with schedules. I compare the two tables, sports & schedule and use a CFIF statement to compare the 2 sportIDs in the output to determine which teams have a schedule.  If the two sportIDs match then a hyperlink is displayed.
    Unfortuanetely, only one link will be displayed, even though there should be three links. Below is my code:
    Table to display the teams grouped by gender
    <cfquery name="getSports" datasource="#application.database#">
    select gender, team, levels, sportID
    from sports
    group by gender, team, levels, sportID
    </cfquery>
    Table used to get the sportID for schedules already created
    <cfquery name="getID" datasource="#application.database#">
    select sportID
    from schedules
    group by sportID
    </cfquery>
    I then compare the sportIDs and if they match, I then display a hyperlink
    <cfoutput query="getSports" group="gender">
    <h1">#gender#'s Teams</h1>
    <ul>
    <cfoutput>
         <li>
              <cfif getID.sportID EQ getSports.sportID><a href="teams.cfm?sportID=#sportID#"></cfif>
               #team# <cfif levels GT "">(#levels#)</cfif>   //levels is used to differentiate between J.V. and Varsity. Not all teams use levels
              <cfif getID.sportID EQ getSports.sportID></a></cfif>
         </li>
    </cfoutput>
    </ul>
    </cfoutput>
    How do I get the other teams to display their links?

    I'm hesitant to give you an example because there are so many ways to do this and I don't want to lead you in a direction that might not be appropriate for what you are trying to do (outside of this code block).
    I think WolfShade is on the right track.  I would also use a single query with a join instead of trying to use a condition in a loop.  I think you would want an outer join instead of an inner join though.  You want all rows returned whether or not they have a schedule.  Right?  If so, you should be able to use an outer join and then your condition for the hyperlink becomes whether the schedules.sportID is NULL or not.  I think this would be the best way to handle this.
    OR
    If you can't do that for some reason, then you need to modify your cfif logic.  You could move your "getID" query inside of your <cfoutput query="getSports"... loop.  Add a where condition to the query "where sportID = getSports.sportID".  Then you can check if the getID.recordcount is greater than 0 (or equal to 1).  If so it has a schedule so create the hyperlink.  Not pretty though, because as you see it will need to query for each record in "getSports" query.
    OR
    You could keep your queries the same but place a cfloop around your cfif logic to check for each record in your "getID" query.  Again, not pretty because you have to loop over the "getID" query for each record in the "getSports" query.  Something like:
         <li>
              <cfloop query="getID">
              <cfif getID.sportID EQ getSports.sportID><a href="teams.cfm?sportID=#getSports.sportID#"></cfif>
               #team# <cfif levels GT "">(#levels#)</cfif>   //levels is used to differentiate between J.V. and Varsity. Not all teams use levels
              <cfif getID.sportID EQ getSports.sportID></a></cfif>
              </cfloop>
         </li>
    OR
    You could do a query of a query...  Lots of ways to skin a cat...

  • How do I get iPhoto to not copy photos into its own folder, read originals?

    I was wondering how you could get iPhoto 6 to 'read' photos from it's original file.
    I normally keep my photos in their own folder, separate from the iPhoto file. Now I kind of want to have them all organized nicely in the iPhoto file so I don't have duplicates floating around. I wiped the iPhoto Library (they were duplicates) and as I import them, they copy right back into an 'iPhoto Library' file. I want them to stay in my own folder 'My Photos'.
    Is this possible? =S

    Simply go to iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck 'Copy Files to the iPhoto Library on Import'.
    Now iPhoto will not copy the files, but rather simply reference them on your HD. To do this it will create an alias in the Originals Folder that points to your file. It will still create a thumbnail and, if you modify the pics, a Modified version within the iPhoto Library Folder.
    *However, you need to be aware of a number of potential pitfalls using this system.*
    1. Import and deleting pics are more complex procedures
    2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them on systems prior to 10.5 and iPhoto 08. Even with the later versions issues can still arise if you move the referenced files to new volumes or between volumes.
    3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
    Always allowing for personal preference, *I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organisers.*
    If disk space is an issue, you can run an entire iPhoto Library from an external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    If you're concerned about accessing the files, there are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    Your choice, obviously, but best to be aware of all the ramifications. By all means post back if you require more info.
    Regards

  • I've bought more gb for iphone 4, how do I get to use it. It says its in icloud

    II've bought more gb to download a film but it says it in iCloud. How do I get to use it??

    Correct you can't buy more KB for the iphone, what you bought was for icloud backup.
    If you want to download the film, you will have to delete some apps, pics, videos off your phone.
    You bought more memory for icloud not the phone itself.

  • How do I get google maps back and turn on location services so I don't have to use your absolutely garbage maps

    How do I get google maps back so I don't have to use apples disgusting version of an attempt at a map

    You don't. You can use Safari and go to mobile Google maps and after opening that, tap on the arrow on the bottom of the page and save it to the homescreen. That will allow you to use Google maps web app on the phone. There is a rumor that Google is working on a stand alone app for the App store however no one knows yet if it has been submitted.

  • How to execute some code in command line, and read its output?

    I'v found here http://www.sap-advisor.com/abap-coding/how-to-execute-operating-system-commands-from-within-sap/ that I can execute commands from the windows command line for example inside SAP.
    But I want to take it one step further and read its output. is it possible?

    Hi RagnaRock,
    one possible approach can be outputting the results of the command into a text file (i.e. "command >result.txt"), and then read this file from SAP/ABAP.
    I hope this helps. Kind regards,
