  • How do I turn a large pdf file into a hyperlink?

    Instead of downloading a huge file, I just want to send a link. How do I dothet?
    Thank you.

    Put it on a web site. Could be your own, or acrobat.com (but not sure how you;d make the file public). You can use a file sending service which makes this simple: Adobe sell "Adobe Send" to do this, there are many others.

  • How do I turn off background ni file activity when not using Labview? files such as nimxs.exe, nipalsm.exe, nipalsm.exe, nisvcloc.exe, nicitdl5.exe

    How do I turn off background ni file activity when not using Labview? I use labview rarely, and I also use my computer for demanding multimedia applications, including multitrack digital audio recording. I need to reduce as much background activity as possible, and taking a look with task manager I see files such as nimxs.exe, nipalsm.exe, nipalsm.exe, nisvcloc.exe, and nicitdl5.exe running even when I haven't used Labview (8 I believe). These files run even after I right click the NI icon on the lower right and turn off the application. I would like the computer to boot up without these files, and for the necessary files to be activated only when I start the program.
    Can this be done or do I have to remove labview from the system to improve performance?
    Thanks

    Hello, those processes are part of running NI services that start when Windows boots.  These processes serve varied purposes and stopping them can have undefined and unknown consiquences for your NI products.  These products run at "normal" priority meaning that they should be preempted by any process running at a higher priority which I would expect your other application to be doing given their time sensitivity.  That being said, in Windows XP (I can't speak for other OSes), you can lower their priorities even greater through task manager (right click the process»set priority) to further remove them from contention for resources.  If you want to prevent them from running you can set the service startup type to "manual" in Control Panel»Administrative Tools»Services.  Right click the process go to Properties and Under the General tab choose Startup Type»Manual.  This will start up the processes only when something directly starts it up.  LabVIEW will start these processes up as it attempts to use them.  When you shut down LabVIEW you will need to manually shut down these processes through task manager.  Again, doing this can cause problems with your NI products on your system and it is not advised.

  • Formatting the time stamp in "Write LabVIEW Measurement File"

    When I use the "Write LabVIEW Measurement File" vi to write data
    the files first column contains the number of seconds since the staart of the file
    How can I get the computer date and time or at least the time HH:MMS???
    Tom
    PS, And how can I put some sensible label on each columns in the file?

    Tom,
    The vi I'm attaching demonstrates how to use the computer system time for the timestamp on your LVM file. It takes a reading from the DAQ Assistant and applies a system time stamp. It's in version 7.1, but let me know if you need it in version 7.0.
    As for inserting meaningful column headers, you won't be able to do that with the express vi, but you could use the regular file i/o vis to create a file like that is similar to a LVM file, but is a little more customizeable and can be formatted however you like. The express vi is meant to be a quick solution, but does not offer all the versatility of the vis on the palette. I hope this helps you out. Have a good one, Tom!

  • Read LabVIEW Measurement File VI Multiple Times

    I Get Error 4 When Calling the Read LabVIEW Measurement File VI Multiple Times. I've searched and found a paper on this issue. http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/0576444C8FD4DC0F86256E83007FA540
    So I have a question: Is there a way to fix this to I can still Calling the Read LabVIEW Measurement File VI Multiple Times?

    The paper you linked makes it very clear. The Read File Express VI cannot do what you want.  Either use the low level File VIs and functions or open the front panel of the Express VI and then modify it to do what you want. Most likely the Express VI uses the low level file functions internally, but it may have a lot of extra code to handle special cases. It is probably easier to use the low level functions and you learn how to use them.  
    Look at the Examples under Fundamentals >> File Input and Output. Something there may do most of what you want and even if it does not, the exampels will help you learn how to use the file resources in LV.

  • Labview 8 crashes when using Read Labview Measurement File

    Hi All,
    I am a new user for Labview. I installed Labview 8.0 from the CD (evaluation copy). I was just testing the sample code provided by NI. I opened the "Load from File and Display" example and I was trying to open the properties for the Read Labview Measurement File component when Labview crashed. I tried it a couple of times and everytime it happens the same way (when I double click the component or right click on it).
    I am using Windows XP with all the updates done. In the Windows crash report, the application version is 8.0.0.4005.
    Other problem I encountered is a missing component on the Input Palette (no DAQ Assistant present) and the Instrument I/O Assistant raises the error "Measurement & Automation Explorer or the Instrument I/O Assistant is not installed correctly. Please install these from the Labview Driver CD". For the last problem, I will try to run the Labview Driver CD, once I get it. But I am not sure if the DAQ Assistant will show up then or not.
    Any ideas?
    Regards,
    Nick

    Hello Nick,
    While it is not my area of expertise, I would expect the DAQ Assistant would appear after installing the driver CD as you said you would be trying.
    What caught my attention was the crash.  The easiest way to resolve the crash is to delete the instance of the Read LabVIEW Measurement File on the diagram and place a new one from the Express Input palette (now called "Read From Measurement File").  In that situation, I would expect just pressing OK to accept the default configuration should work.  The crash occurs in certain circumstances when the Read / Write Measurement File Express VIs are dropped from a previous version of LabVIEW and then their config page is opened in 8.0.x.  This issue should be resolved in a future release, sorry for the inconvenience.

  • How do you turn off the log file?

    How can I turn off the log file for WLS? Don't want the added overhead
    of logging during performance tests.

    The only way I know is:
    # startWebLogic.sh > /dev/null &
    Only if you are running on unix.

  • What is advantage of excel over labview measurment file

    hi
         i am doing some data acquision work in labview..i want to know that for data storage which  will be better   , microsoft excel or labview measurment file..       whats advantage &disadvantage of same

    Well in my opinion the best type of file depends on your needs, really... I don't think that one is intrinsicly better than the other.
    Do you need to be able to read your file with another soft than labview ?
    Do you need to have particular headers on your file ?
    If you make list of all the possibility you want relativly to your data files then we can discuss on the best format, do you follow me ?

  • Speichern von Zeitwerten im "Write Labview Measurement File"

    Ich habe Probleme mit den Zeitwerten, welche ab der Zeit 1E-4s mit dem "Write Labview Measurement File" gespeichert wird. Von 0s bis zur Zeit 1E-4s ist alles in Ordnung, da bis zu dieser Zeit die Zeitschritte folgendermassen gespeichert werden:
    0.000000
    1.000000E-7
    2.000000E-7
    3.000000E-7

    2.100000E-6
    9.990000E-5
    1.000000E-4
    Aber ab dann wechselt die Darstellung der Zeit von 1.000000E-4s auf 0.000100s. Dadurch gehen die signifikanten Stellen der Zeitschritte von 0.0001000s bis 0.0001004s verloren und diese werden 5 mal als Zeit 0.000100s dargestellt (gilt analog auch für die restlichen Zeitschritte. z.B.: 0.0001005s bis 0.0001014s wird 10 mal als Zeit 0.000101s geschrieben).

  • How can I convert a PDF/A file into a PDF file with Acrobat Pro X?

    How can I convert a PDF/A file into a PDF file with Acrobat Pro X? I'd like to modifiy the file which I have only as a PDF/A.

    There's two answers if you want to modify the file:
    You can temporarily turn off PDF/A Mode in your preferences, so they don't open as read-only. The problem would be if you do something to the file that violated the PDF/A standard, so you should always run a Preflight check afterwards to make sure.
    If you want to remove the PDF/A header tag, use Preflight again - it's on the Print Production Panel in Acrobat X Pro (which may be hidden, use the options menu on the Tools Pane to show it). There's a profile called "Remove PDF/A information" - choose this and press Analyze and Fix. Nothing else about the file will be altered but when you save and reopen it all the editing tools will become active.

  • How can I turn my French apple account into Australian one to be able to buy a Iphoto book I've made?

    hi
    How can I turn my french apple account into an Australian one , to be able to buy a Iphoto book I 've created ?

    And you need to set the "Print Products Store" in the iPhoto Preferences "Advanced" to the country you are in. The credit card you will be using with your AppleID needs to be valid in the country your AppleID is registered to. Will you be staying permanently in Australia? Maybe it wuld be simpler to create a second AppleID just for the time of your stay there.

  • How do I import Map Info Tab files into Spatial for a map of europe?

    How do I import Map Info Tab files into Spatial for a map of europe via FME and have oracle spatial draw the map without problems?
    So far I've got to the stage where I can import the data, spatially index it (in oracle 9i) and get my SVG (scaleable vector graphics) application to view the map.
    The problem is that countries that have more than one polygon (more than one row in the database) do not draw properly.
    When I view the Map Info tab file in the FME viewer I can see that the data is fine, but I can also see that some of the polygons used to draw a country are donugts and some aren't.
    This seems to cause a problem when I import the data into oracle spatial as I don't know if a row in the table needs to be inserted as an independent SDO_GEOMETRY or if it should form part of a larger SDO_GEOMETRY (as in 2 or more rows make up the polygon shape for a country).
    I have a feeling that I'm not using FME correctly, because at the moment I have to import the tab file into Oracle then re-insert the data into a spatially formatted table (one with a spatial index) - I get the impression that FME should do that for me but as I'm new to this I don't really know.
    Any Help welcome :|
    Tim

    Tim,
    MapInfo has a free utility called EasyLoader that allows you to upload a table directly to Oracle. EasyLoader creates the geometries and spatial index. You can download it free from http://www.mapinfo.com/products/download.cfm?ProductID=1044

  • How do I create an interactive PDF file with variable data

    We would like to basically do a 'mail merge' of our list of customers with an interactive PDF file (including videos, menus, etc - not just form fill out and web links) to create a single PDF file that contains multiple mail pieces ... one for each customer ... with each mail piece being customized for that customer.  Customizations would include different greetings (Dear Bob, Dear Dana, etc), as well as different charts based on data unique to the customer, different photographs, etc.
    I've seen that InDesign and Acrobat Professional can be used to create an interactive PDF (such as from http://tv.adobe.com/watch/ask-the-adobe-ones/14-calling-rufus-about-interactive-pdf-making).  However I don't understand how I can insert data from a database, csv file, excel file etc into the PDF file so that each page, or each set of pages, within the PDF can be customized.
    Can anyone point me to a tool to use for this?
    Thanks,
    Bob Kendall

    For that kind of volume and unattended operation, you want InDesign Server – which is the server/high volume edition of INDD.

  • How can I turn my Mac using iTunes into an alarm clock?

    Here's my question: How can I turn my Mac, using iTunes, into an alarm clock?
    I want to be able to put my Mac to sleep but have it set up so that when it wakes up at the predetermined time iTunes will open and start playing the music I've selected....
    A "musical alarm clock"...
    A friend suggested using the Energy Saver option in Sys. Preferences to wake the computer at the right time. He said that then I could use iCal to start iTunes. I would then have to use an Apple Script to get iTunes to play the song I want.
    But is there a SIMPLER way to do this? Are there any programs out there that do this already??
    Thanks for any help....

    I recently got a copy of AlarmClock Pro from MacWorld UK. It is shareware, I think it is (USD?)19. I haven't had a chance to try it out much, but it does look quite good. I have an older version. The latest version looks even better.
    I'm sure there's plenty of freeware apps out there. You might also want to try looking here for an applescript here Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes
