How do I send a 2-10 MHz pulse train to my DAQ 6052E why simultaneously reading in data? I'm using the NIDAQ Tools with Igor Pro.

I need to send a continuous 2-10MHz TTL timing signal to a low pass filter (to set the cutoff frequency) while I collect data from one of the analog inputs. I'm hoping that I can send the TTL signal and collect the data through the same DAQ 6052E board.
I've been told that I can send a pulse train using one of the two counters on the board. But does anyone have more specific advice how to implement this using the NIDAQ Tools extensions to IGOR Pro? In particular I'm concerned about how I can send a continuous TTL signal and simultaneously read data. Or can you just turn on the timing signal and it stays on until it's
turned off again?
Thanks for your help

You can program one of the counters to generate a continuous pulse train. Once programmed to do so the counter needs no further interaction. It will continue to generate the signal until stopped through SW. So you can start the counter using the functions provided to you, then forget about it and program the AI operations.

  • How do I use the App store with macbook pro and mac pro

    I currently use the app store with the mac book, but want to buy (share?) apps and music with the mac pro.
    I can't find anything that specifically outlines how this works.
    I use SplashID with the macbook and an iPhone, and want to use it (and sync it) on the mac pro as well.
    If you buy apps for a macbook, can you use them on a second machine, or do you need to buy it a second time?

    Your license from the MAS allows you to download and install the apps on as many Macs as you own or have under your control (institutional or employer supplied Macs.) The Mac should to be running Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard or Mac OS X 10.7.2 Lion. Open the MAS app on the Mac Pro and sign into your account to have access to download all of your previous purchases in the Purchased pane.
    Simple apps can also be dragged & dropped over a network connection from the MacBook to the Mac Pro.

  • How do i use the stretching tool in soundtrack pro

    i have a split track song with muitiple track.got them all loaded in soundtrack pro,when i play the track there are i lot of skips please help big project for fathers day

    O.K. so do you need to slow down the music, or speed it up? That's what the stretching tool is for, like in a video scene where the music slows to the tempo the actors are speaking. To use it; you must have an audio file: export multiple tracks by selecting them and choosing Export from the file menu. If you're trying to interlace audio then you should export each track individually and paste them together in an audio file. Next select the audio you want to change then drag the parameters of the selected music: either forwards to delay, or backwards to speed up, just like changing the crop of a photo. Be aware that you can drastically change the audio, trial and error works best, just use Edit>undo till you get it. Also try removing some clicks and pops in analysis.

  • How do you use the MASK tool with 4K footage?

    Hi everyone!
    Normally when I use the mask tool, I drag it onto the footage and four nodes appear on the clip, one in each corner - and then I can move each corner to where I want it...
    I've just shot some 4k footage using a Canon 1d-c and for some reason, when I drag the Mask onto the footage, the four nodes still appear but I can't move them around!
    Does that make sense?
    Any help would be massively appreciated!
    Thanks in advance!

    There shouldn't be any difference in being able to adjust them just because you're using 4K. I can't reproduce the problem and can't think of a reason why it would happen. Hopefully someone else will chime in.

    Hi there - I think I am having problems associated withg Cause 9 in that in google mail I have another pop email address associated so that I can send using this email address, but then I have both addresses setup seperately in BIS. When I receive a mail from GMAIL I receive a duplicate with "received by: unknown" in the header. I had gmail setup so that it would send using by pop email address as default.
    In your answer the settings for the two filters you recommend creating are broken links and I canot actually see them. What are they?
    Also What do you recommend setup wise with gmail and a pop account. Some people say it is better to get gmail to receive the pop mail account and run the whole account from there. Blackberry doesn't seem to like this setup very much. Should I completely dissociate the pop account and to try and clarify the distinction between the two? Or should I setup a second gmail account and have that poll my pop account and then have the blackberry feed off these two gmail accounts? The reason I am considering this option is gmail provides a lot of storage and online continuity and this would effectively persist my account.
    Your help would be much appreciated.. I have had blackberry woes now for over a month and I have spent hours with various support personel, tried deleteing and sending down new service books etc etc but had no luck yet.
    thanks,

  • UIX/JSP - How to use the UIX Controller with UIX/JSP

    After reading the UIX Developers Guide I am under the impression that I could use the UIX Controller with UIX/JSP pages. Is this correct and are there any available examples?
    Bill G...

    It's correct, but I'm afraid we don't have much (read as "any")
    documentation on how to do that - besides reading through the
    gobs of Javadoc and guessing how to put it together.
    Half of the problem is solved by registering JspPageDescriptions
    on a PageBroker (e.g., UIXPageBroker) to tell the UIX Controller
    to use a JSP to render a particular page, instead of a UIX XML
    document.
    The other half is getting the JSP to send requests back to
    the UIX Controller. Depending on how you've chosen to name
    your pages, create either a DefaultPageEncoder or ExtensionPageEncoder
    inside your JSP, and use that to create destination URLs.

    When Photoshop just won't work properly, try replacing the Preferences file by using this procedure:
    Open Photoshop and save your custom goodies. Choose Edit→Presets→Preset Manager to save sets of styles, brushes, and other such bits and pieces you created. Use the Save Actions command in the Actions palette menu to save any sets of custom Actions.
    Review your Preferences. Open Photoshop's Preferences and go through each pane, noting your preferred settings so that you can restore your work environment later.
    Quit Photoshop. You can close the program like this:
    On a Mac: Hold down Command+Shift+Option and restart Photoshop. When prompted, release the modifier keys and confirm, that yes, you do want to replace the Photoshop settings.
    On a PC: Restart Photoshop; immediately press and hold down Ctrl+Shift+Alt. When prompted, release the modifier keys and confirm, that yes, you do want to replace the Photoshop settings.

  • How can I add to an existing path using the pencil tool?

    This probably seems like a rather elementary question, but
    whenever I draw a path using the pencil tool, reselect it,
    hover over the endpoint, and the click and drag to extend
    the line off into a different direction, Illustrator will often
    (but not always) erase the existing path and leave only the
    new one that I drew.
    To wit:
    In step 1 above, I draw a line with the Pencil tool.
    In step 2 above, I reselect the line from step 1, hover over the endpoint, and then continue to draw further.
    However, as can be seen in step 3, the line from step 1 disappears after I draw the new path.
    I am aware of the pencil setting, "Edit selected paths", and I have checked it to edit selected paths
    within 12 pixels for the above example. What I am doing in the above example, and what I
    want to do, is to be able to add more paths onto an existing one using the pencil tool,
    rather than have a completely new path being drawn every time I lift up my pen to finish
    drawing the previous path.
    I also realize that I can do this with the pen tool; but the pen tool is a more
    precise tool (and somewhat more cumbersome), and I prefer to have more
    of the rough-handed look from time to time.
    Finally, I also know that I can use the direct selection tool to select endpoints
    from two different paths and then join them using the join command;
    but this seems to be more trouble than it's worth in many cases, especially
    if I want to do it frequently for a more long and complicated line.
    Am I expecting too much out of Illustrator?
    Is my idea of how to use the existing tools wrong in this case?
    Is there some piece of knowledge I'm missing?
    I'm on Illustrator CS5, Mac OS X 10.6.8, using a Wacom Intuos4 tablet.
    However, I have confirmed the above on Illustrator CS4 for Mac as well.
    Any help or comments would be much appreciated.
    Jeff

    Thanks @rcraighead - the Live Paint process seems a bit overkill for simply adding
    a new path onto an existing pencil path, but I did try the first idea you suggested,
    which was tracing a bit over the last part of the existing path and then continuing
    on to extend the path. It's a bit imprecise because the existing path gets slightly
    modified, but it seems to work pretty well all in all. Nice idea indeed - thanks a million.
    I also found that in AI CS5, I can use the selection tool to select all of the paths
    in this case and then join them using the join command. I thought I needed to
    select individual anchor points for this to work, but it actually works really
    well, better than I thought. I seem to recall that previous versions of Illustrator
    were a lot more picky with the Join command, but then again this might just
    have been my lack of understanding.
    I'm curious to know what other solutions to the above problem that other users
    might have, so I will leave this question unanswered for a bit...
    but I will use your initial technique described - it seems to work
    pretty well, in absence of other options Many thanks again for your timely help.

  • I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

    Our posts overlapped there.  Are you saying you could reliably drag one pixel with CS3? 
    What other issues are you having?  Things like the Crop tool can feel strange at first, but I promise you you'll never want to use Classic mode once you get used to it.

  • How do I use the move tool in CS5 to put two images on to an A4 sheet?

    Have recently upgraded from CS3 to CS5.
    I often print out two images on A4 paper.  Under CS3 I would simply adjust and crop 2 images to say 7 ins x 5 ins, after that bring up a new A4 sized sheet (file, new), then using the move tool I'd move the two separate images on to the A4 sheet and print.  Fine!
    Now under CS5, once I've adjusted my first image then try to bring up a second image to adjust that one I seem to lose the first one from the screen.  But on going back via Bridge and clicking on the image it re-appears - problem is, I lose the second image.
    When I bring up a new A4 sheet neither of the images stay on the screen and there is nothing to move.
    Have been into Preferences to see if there is anything there to help but can't see anything.
    Does anyone know what is happening here and what I'm doing wrong i.e. how do I get 2 separate images on to an A4 sheet?
    Thanks,
    Bob Eveleigh.

    There have been changes since cs3, mainly that cs5 uses tabs.
    Tabs can be confusing if your coming from cs3.
    If your in the tabbed mode, try going to Window>Arrange>Tile.
    All your open documents should be visible on the screen.

  • How to migrate Master Data (Rule set etc.) from GRC 5.3 to 10.1 without using the "Migration Tool"

    Greetings,
    We are currently on GRC 5.3 SP 18 (Java ONLY) and migrating to GRC 10.1. I referred the Migration Guide which outlines that GRC 5.3 needs to be upgraded to SP 20 as pre-requisite for using the "Migration Tool" . Our BASIS team is reluctant to perform this upgrade from SP 18 to SP 20.
    Having said thus, I'm exploring options of migrating data from 5.3 to 10.1 without using the "Migration Tool:.
    Rule set Migration:
    I'm in the process of preparing the 9 different files (listed below) and later utilize the "Upload Rule" option for migrating the Rule set data from 5.3 to 10.1.
    While I'm able to gather data for most of the files I'm not sure how can I obtain the data pertaining to the two files (Function Actions and Function Permissions) underlined and highlighted in Red below.
    1. Business Process
    2. Function
    3. Function Business Process
    4. Function Actions
    5 .Function Permissions
    6. Rule Set
    7. Risk
    8. Risk Description
    9. Risk Rule Set Relationship
    10. Risk Owner Relationship
    Can someone please enlighten me and share their experience with regards to this exercise. Really appreciate your help !
    - Janantik.

    I have done this successfully before.  Because you are having issues, I would NOT recommend using the migration tool to move the ruleset.  Instead:
    1. Download the ruleset files from 5.3
    2. The 5.3 tcode-permission file, which defines which tcode permissions from SU24 need to be checked during risk analysis, needs to be split into the two files you mention above in red.
    FUNCTION_ACTION : this file represents S_TCODE objects and TCD fields mapped to each function (Function to Tcode relationship).  In the 5.3 file, you will filter on object S_TCODE and field TCD, and you will get a complete list that now represents "FUNCTION_ACTION".  BUT instead of having all the jumbled permission info, you will just have 3 columns: Function - Tcode - Status.
    3. The remaining permissions that are left over, after taking out the S_TCODE -TCD items, represent the "FUNCTION_PERMISSION" file in GRC 10.
    4. Manually create the excel spreadsheets for each file.
    5. Copy and past each sheet to a unique .txt file.
    6. Upload the ruleset manually through SPRO-->GRC-->Access Control-->Access Risk Analysis-->SoD Rules-->Upload SoD Rules.
    7. Select each file and then upload to the correct Logical Group.
    This is a huge pain, but it works.  Let me know how this goes and if you need any assistance.
