How Do I Include Non-Displayable ASCII Characters in a Character String in Labview 6 ?

I would like to send different ASCII (ETX and STX)to a device via a serial connection.
The problem is that Labview understand it as the string E + string T + string X ...
how can I do it ?
Thank you for your help

If I understand your question correctly, try using the Type Cast function (in the Advanced>Data Manipulation SubPalette). Where you want to insert your hex value, use a numeric constant and wire it to the Type Cast input. The output of the Type Cast will be a string with the non-displayable value.

  • Non US-ASCII characters in download file names

    I am trying to implement a simple file download in a JSP, and trying to get IE, Firefox and Opera to all display and handle non US-ASCII characters in the suggested download file name. Only concerned with Windows platform for now. Here's the code I am currently using:
    String agent = request.getHeader("USER-AGENT");
    if (null != agent && -1 != agent.indexOf("MSIE"))
    String codedfilename = URLEncoder.encode(cfrfilename, "UTF8");
    response.setContentType("application/x-download");
    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;filename=" + codedfilename);
    else if (null != agent && -1 != agent.indexOf("Mozilla"))
    String codedfilename = MimeUtility.encodeText(cfrfilename, "UTF8", "B");
    response.setContentType("application/x-download");
    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;filename=" + codedfilename);
    else
    response.setContentType("application/x-download");
    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;filename=" + cfrfilename);
    }This URL encodes the file name if the browser is IE, MIME encodes it if the browser is Mozilla, and sends plain UTF-8 (the encoding of the JSP) for all other browsers. I get "cfrfilename" from translated properties files, and the string can contain characters from any character set - Chinese, Thai, Korean, etc.
    This code works correctly for IE - the file name is displayed correctly in the file Save as dialog, and it is saved correctly on disk, no matter which character set is used.
    For Firefox, the file name is displayed correctly in the file Save as dialog, but it is only saved correctly to disk if the file name is in a character set supported by the system locale. This seems to be a known Firefox bug (not fully using the Windows Unicode APIs), so nothing I can do about that.
    Nothing seems to work for Opera, however - I cannot get the file name to display correctly in the file Save as dialog, no matter which method I use (I have tried URL encoding and MIME encoding in addition to the plain UTF-8).
    Has anybody implemented something similar that works for at least these 3 browsers?

    I tested your code today,
                         dialog           save           open
    Firefox 1.5          OK                 OK               OK

  • Non-displayable Chinese Characters

    I have found an interesting issue with iPod nano (not sure if this happens to other iPods as well) on displaying Chinese characters. There are some characters that couldn't be displayed in iPod nano, for example, if the song name contains 3 characters, and one of them is the 'magic word', iPod nano will only display 2 characters in the song name.
    There isn't anything to do with the song name (ID3 tag, file name, whatsoever) because all applications running on my Mac display the song name correctly. It's only on iPod nano.
    (I'm going to add on to this list if I discover more) The non-displayable character, so far, is:
    1. 聽

    I was able to display that character OK in a note in my iPod 5G. You should let Apple know via the feedback channel about this bug, using the Unicode number for the character (U+807D):

  • Processsing non-printing ASCII characters using ABAP

    Hi All,
    I would like to process a GUI field input that contains a non-printing ASCII character. It is actually from barcode being read into a GUI field that is then picked up by an ABAP program e.g. in readable format looks like this: 123456789 but actually contains a non-printing ASCII character (ASCII char 29) used as a data separator e.g. 1234<sep>567<sep>89.
    I would like to parse the input using ABAP at the non-printing ASCII character so that I have 3 variables A=1234 & B=567 & C=89.
    How should I best tackle this?
    Cheers,
    N.

    Pls check this...
    DATA: hx29 type x value '29'.
    data : wa_hx29(1).
    data : wa_str(30) type c.
    data : wa_str1(10),wa_str2(10),wa_str3(7).
    wa_hx29 = hx29.
    split wa_str at wa_hx29 into wa_str1 wa_str2 wa_str3.

  • How can I include "None" functionality in a LOV

    I am trying to setup the ability to set a value to null in a Popup LOV giving my users the “None” functionality. This is the SQL I use to ccreate the LOV:
    select 'None'VALUE,
    Null UID
    from dual
    UNION ALL
    select VALUE,
    UID
    from LOOKUP_VALUE
    when I select the “None” from the list and try to create the record I receive:
    ERR ERR-1023 Unable perform validations
    ORA-01722: invalid number
    Any idea on how to allow “None” type functionality?

    Thanks Sergio;
    You are right I am trying to insert a NULL into a number column. When I add a row and do not put a value in this column it is ok because the column is defined to allow nulls. If I put a value in this column and later want to change the value nothing (NULL) is when I have the problem. I could create a None value for all my LOV and use it but I would rather just remove the value from the column and leave it NULL.

  • Which ASCII Characters are acceptable?

    I'm trying to clean up my iPhoto library so it'll sync with my iPhone. One possible cause I've seen mentioned here is the use of non-standard ASCII characters in Keywords, Album names, etc.
    Can you wise folks provide a bit more info here?
    FIRST QUESTION: I'm trying to figure out exactly which characters need to be eliminated. Are the following characters allowed or not?
    . Period
    , Comma
    - Hyphen
    _ Underline
    ( ) Parentheses
    (space)
    & Ampersand
    123 Numbers
    These seem like relatively common characters, so I'm hoping I don't have to remove every one of them. It would be especially difficult to remove every "space" from every title.
    SECOND QUESTION: Exactly which fields do I need to clean up?
    - Keywords (definitely)
    - Albums?
    - Film Rolls (I hope not)
    - Photo Titles (please say no...)
    Please help! Depending on the answers, this could either be a manageable project or a week-long chore.
    And by the way... If these characters are verboten, why doesn't iPhoto reject them when I first try to enter the data?

    Adam
    Are you actually having a problem?
    There is no list, but when I post that query it's because some people who post here have had issues that were solved when they removed non-ascii characters. Others have found issues when they removed leading and trailing spaces... so (where _ stands for a space)
    _keyword
    or keyword keyword_
    have caused issues, thought the space between keyword and keyword has not caused issues.
    So, here's my (not very helpful, I admit) take on it: non_ascii characters are not a problem, trailing and leading spaces are not a problem, unless, of course, they are.
    The real issue seems to be that they lead to a malformed albumdata.xml file, which is the file that other apps read to interact with.
    I think the best way to examine the albumdata.xml file is the way that Dave E shows:

  • Caesar Cipher and non printing ascii

    I am writing a program to implements the caesar cipher. For the program I am using ASCII code so my encryption algorithm is:
    c = (p + k) mod 128
    The only problem is, is that depending on the characters being encrypted and depending on the key I use some of the characters are encrypted to non-printing ascii characters such as 'del'.
    So my code reads in the plain text from a file converts each character to ascii, encrypts each character using the key. It then writes the encrypted ascii values to a file as text (i.e. the character equivalent of the ascii).
    If I do then encounter a non-printing ascii value it is written to the file as a square shape. Is there any way I can get around this?
    Thanks for your help on the matter.
    Wallace

    Modify your encryption function so that it only covers those ASCII values that print, i.e. you need to implement the mod and + function yourself so that only good ASCII characters are considered.

  • Problems with password including non-ASCII characters

    I am a German language user with a German keyboard but an English OS as main language. Therefore my passwords (simple user and admin) includes non-ASCII characters used in German, French and Spanish language, which increases security. This works fine in the majority of login scenarios. There are, however, 3 scenarios where neither my non-ASCII simple user nor my non-ASCII admin PW are accepted:
    1) running "sudo" in Terminal;
    2) When I try to shut down and another user account is still open. Doing this brings up a login window asking for the PW of the other user that does not accept non-ASCII;
    3) Using Leopard/SnowLeopard CacheCleaner. Upon opening, this app asks for an admin PW, but does not recognize non-ASCII.
    Am I right in assuming that this has to do with non-ASCII PWs? I thought ASCII times were gone given the remarkable language flexibility of Mac OS over the years. I know this stupid problem only from Win XP. There it is even worse.
    Is there a way to overcome this problem without always temporarily changing my PW? Thanks.

    I think the problem is with the applications themselves and should be reported to the developer. Although some non-ASCII characters are acceptable for an admin password, in my experience most Unix systems don't like non-ASCII characters in passwords. It may be easier to avoid them if you can.
    OS X should simply request your admin password to shut down when another user account is open. An alert dialog usually appears warning that the other user is still logged in and giving you the option to log the other account out then shut down. But in my experience the only authorization needed is for your admin account.

  • Replacing non-ASCII characters with HTML charcter references

    Hi All,
    In Oracle 10g or greater is there a built-in function that will convert a string with non-ASCII characters like this
    a b č 뮼
    into an ASCII string with HTML character references like this?
    a b & # x 0 1 0 D ; & # x B B B C ;
    (note I had to include spaces between each character in the sample code for message to prevent the forum software from converting my text)
    I tried using
    utl_i18n.escape_reference( val, 'us7ascii' )
    but for some reason it returns
    a b c & # x B B B C ;
    Note how it converted the Western European character "č" to its unaccented counterpart "c", not "& # x 0 1 0 D ;" (is this a bug?).
    I also tried a custom solution using regexp_replace and asciistr (which I can't include here because the forum software chokes on it) but it only returns the correct result for values <=4000 characters long. Unfortunately asciistr doesn't appear to accept CLOB values larger than 4000 characters. It returns an error message like
    (ORA-22835: Buffer too small for CLOB to CHAR or BLOB to RAW conversion (actual: 30251, maximum: 4000) ).
    I'm looking for a solution that works on CLOB data of any size.
    Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.

    So with that (UTF8) in mind, let's take another look.....
    As shown below, I used a AL32UTF8 database.
    Note: I did not use a unicode capable tool for querying. So I set console mode code page to 1250 just to have č displayed properly (instead of posing as an è).
    Also, as a result of using windows-1250 for client character set, in the val column and in the second select's ncr column (iso8859-1), è (00e8) has been replaced with e through character set conversion going from server back to client.
    Running the same code on a database with a db character set such as we8mswin1252, that doesn't define the č (latin small c with caron) character, would yield results with a c in the ncr column.

  • Non-ASCII Characters Appear In Path Name

    I've had this happen before over SSH via PuTTY on a Windows Host but now it's happening just in Linux. I'm testing out my first attempt at remastering the Arch Live CD and my home directory never got created while running rc.local, when I tried to execute it manually I got block characters at the beginning and end of the path. I tried to type the command manually and got the same thing. I enabled en_US ISO-8859-1 along with en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 in /etc/locale.gen and re-ran locale.gen but it didn't seem to fix my issue. Anyone have any idea on how to fix this?

    What do you mean by non-ASCII characters?
    The ASCII character set contains characters for all byte values, however not all of them are displayable characters. Is it non-displayable characters you want?

  • How can I convert ASCII characters to ISO8859?

    Hi All,
    I have written a little application that renames a TV episode by scraping a TV listing site for the episode name. It is written in SWT and works great apart from on small problem. When getting the html back from the site, it sometimes contains special ASCII characters that are not in the ISO8859 (Windows filesystem) character set.
    For example, this is the line that I have to parse:
    <td style='padding-left: 6px;' class='b2'><a href='/Prison_Break/episodes/569183/03x01'>Orientaci��n</a></td>When viewing it in a browser, it is:
    <td style="padding-left: 6px;" class="b2"><a href="/Prison_Break/episodes/569183/03x01">Orientaci�n</a></td>Notice that the o in the title has an accent on it. While researching this problem I stumbled across 'HTML Entities to ISO 8859-1 Converter' at http://www.inweb.de/chetan/English/Resources/Java/HTML%202%20ISO.html. This open source project takes in an html entity like & and returns '&'.
    So that is not quite what I want, as my BufferedReader is converting the html entity into the ASCII representation already. I need a way of detecting a non ISO8859 character within an ASCII string, and hopefully replacing its natural 'equivalent' (would be o in this case).
    Does anyone know how I could do it without having to check for every special char and replacing (not really an option unless someone has done it before!!)
    If not that then, perhaps another way to attack the problem?
    Any help greatly appreciated ;)

    This is coded in UTF-8. If you convert the bytes to a String using the UTF-8 encoding, then you will have the correct characters "Orientaci�n" in the string.
    Check your parser where it converts the bytes (coming from e.g. an InputStream) to characters. Use UTF-8 as the charset when doing that conversion.
