How do we get information from an MFR reader and write it into a log file?

We are working on a project using an MFR 4100 reader with a serial port
to read data from RFID tags into an Excel or text file.  So far,
when we run our VI, the data from tags shows up fine on the front panel
but shows up as garbage in the Excel/text file.  It also shows up
as garbage when we probe the block diagram.  Does anyone have any
insights on doing this?
Thanks,

  • Urgent: Please help. how to solve the time delay during buffer read and write using vc++

    I need to continuously acquire data from daqmx card, write into a file and at the same time corelate (in terms of time) the data with signals from other instruments. The current problem is that there is time delay during read and write data into buffer,thus causing misalignment of the data from multiple instruments. Is there a way to solve  the delay? or Is there a way to mark the time of the data acquisition in the buffer?  If I know the starting time (e.g. 0) of data acquisition and sampling rate (e.g. 1kHz), can I simply add 1ms to each data sample in the buffer? The current code is shown below.
    void DataCollectionWin::ConnectDAQ()
    DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxCreateTask ("", &taskHandle));
        DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxCreateAIVoltageChan(taskHandle,"Dev1/ai0,Dev1/ai1,Dev1/ai2,Dev1/ai3,Dev1/ai4,Dev1/ai5,Dev1/ai16,Dev1/ai17,Dev1/ai18,Dev1/ai19,Dev1/ai20,Dev1/ai21,Dev1/ai6,Dev1/ai7,Dev1/ai22","",DAQmx_Val_Cfg_Default,-10.0,10.0,DAQmx_Val_Volts,NULL));

       //memcpy(l_data,data,6000);
      SetEvent(hEvent);

    Hello kgy,
    It is a bit of a judgment call. You should just choose the board that you think has the most to do with your issue. For example, this issue was much more focused on setting up your data acquisition task than the Measurement Studio environment/tools, so the MultifunctionDAQ board would have been the best place for it. As for moving your post to another board, I do not believe that is possible.

  • Using the REST API for files, how do I get information on all the folders and files in a folder?

    I have an app that can successfully get a list of a folders content. However, by default the list is limited to 200 entries. I luckily ran into this limit when getting the list on a folder that contained 226 entries and realized I needed to then request
    a list of the next items but it wasn't obvious from the REST API document how to do that. I tried sending the skipToken query parameter and setting it to 0 initially and incrementing each time I sent the request but always got the same 200 items back. So,
    how do I get the list of files and folders beyond the initial list?

    In SP2013 the skiptoken query parameter does not work with list items. You can look at the link below which discusses using the "__next" parameter.

  • Getting information from laptop to host and visa versa

    Hi!
    Here is the situation. I need to tranfer all the data that exits on the laptop to host and I also want the updated data back to laptop. what is the easy way to do that. I have already created the tables on the laptops which is also exactly the same in the host. the oracle that we are using is 8i. could anyone please help me what is real process to go about this and how I can do this process.
    people who has a laptop they go out in the field and enters the information and comes back to office and they have to sync back to host all data.
    Your help on this process would greatly appriciated. Thank you.
    my personal e-mail address is [email protected]
    Sincerely
    Beshu

    Beshu,
    I would think the best way to handle this is Snapshots, or Materialized Views. The master table would exist on the host, and each
    laptop would have a replica of the master table. This would be an updatable snapshot/MView. Unfortunately, you would need to create
    the snapshot/MV on each laptop, rather than use the existing tables you have already created.
    With updatable snapshots/MViews, the laptop user can modify the snapshot table, and the changes are recorded in a log file.
    When the laptop user goes back to the office, they can run a job which posts their changes to the master table, and then
    receives updates from the master table as well. Since you would be using updatable snapshots, you would need to define
    conflict resolution on the master table to resolve data conflicts.
    Depending on the database versions involved, there are lots of things you could do to make your life simpler, such as using a single
    deployment template to instantiate all the laptops.

  • How do I get the pages left to read and the percentage of pages I've read back on my Kindle app?

    Suddenly the information at the bottom of the page that I'm reading is gone.  Typically there is a progress bar and then the percentage of pages I've read and the numbrt of pages I've read.  Now, all I have is the progress bar.  I don't know how to get that information back.  There does not seem to be a setting. 

    Thank to both of you....it worked!  I also found a settings button where all that can be turned on or off.  They just had a revision on the app and the information on the page has changed.

  • How would I get information from Windows Media Player to determine when a file is finished playing?

    I am creating a program to for Windows Media Player. This program will use external buttons connected to a PCI card to read when a user presses a particular button. I need the program to wait until the video is complete before doing anything else. Is there any way to read this information with a property node?
    Help will be much appreciated.
    Solved!

    Attached is a very simply example (LV 8.2) of using that event.

  • How can I get text from a text field and display it in an alert?

    Hello!  I am BRAND NEW to Objective-C and Xcode and iOS, so PLEASE be forgiving of what is going to be a stupid question.  I have a text field.  I want to enter some text, click "return", and see my text in an alert.  It doesn't serve any useful purpose, but this is how I learn.  So far, I am unsuccessful.  Here's my function from my HelloEarthViewController.m file:
    -(IBAction)showInputMessageUITextField *)textField
    if ([textField.text isEqualToString:@""])
        return;
    UIAlertView *helloEarthInputAlert = [[UIAlertView alloc]
                                         initWithTitle:@"Name!" message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Message: %@", textField.text]
                                         delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
    // Display this message.
    [helloEarthInputAlert show];
    Then I go option+click the text field and drag it to File's Owner and connect it to "showInputMessage:"  Then I run it and the build succeeds, but nothing happens when I click my "return" button on the iPhone simulator.
    What have I missed?  Where have I gone wrong? 

    Okay, here's where I am.  I have this in my view controller .h file:
    @interface HelloEarthViewController : UIViewController <UITextFieldDelegate>
        IBOutlet UITextField *textFieldTest;
    @end
    And this in my view controller .m file:
    -(IBAction)showInputMessage
        if ([textFieldTest.text isEqualToString:@""])
            return;
        UIAlertView *helloEarthInputAlert = [[UIAlertView alloc]
                                             initWithTitle:@"Name!" message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Message: %@", textFieldTest.text]
                                             delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
        // Display this message.
        [helloEarthInputAlert show];
    And I have connected the text field to showInputMessage.  When I hit "return", however, I still get nothing.
    Is an "action button" a real button?  From my limited understanding, the alert should launch when I click "return" since showInputMessage is attached to Editing Did End on the text field.
    Thanks for the help.  The transition from writing C# for web applications to writing Objective-C for iOS applications is not going as smoothly as I'd anticipated.

  • How do I take data from a data grid and put it into a variable?

    I am having problems taking data from a datagrid (guess you got that from the title) and setting it to a variable. I am tak
    ing the data from 3 different rss feeds, depending on what button you press, and showing it in a grid. I would like to be able to do more with this data. Here is my code so far:
    <mx:VBox id="vbox" x="70" y="150">
      <mx:Label text="This Data Grid is doing nothing" />
      <mx:DataGrid width="1000" dataProvider="{fullXML}">
       <mx:columns>
        <mx:DataGridColumn id="dataGrid" *dataField="channel.description" headerText="Feed"/>
       </mx:columns>
      </mx:DataGrid>
    </mx:VBox>
    <!-- from test 5 -->
    <mx:Move id="moved" target="{hbox}" repeatCount="0" easingFunction="mx.effects.easing.Linear.easeIn" />
    <mx:HBox id="hbox" fontSize="12" fontFamily="courier">
      <mx:Label text="{website**}" />
    </mx:HBox>
    * this is the data I want to get out
    ** this is where I want to be able to put the variable.
    I don't know if I can do it here or if I need a function or what.
    I would like to be able to put it into an array, but step one is anything at all, so I'm trying just a variable.

    Where do I put that line of code? I see that it goes at the Script part near the top, but how can I use that, I am pretty new to this language. I am not familiar with this line, where does it bind the value from the datagrid to the variable?
    fullXML[myDataGrid.selectedIndex].FIELD_NAME;
    myDataGrid would be the id from the grid I am guessing?
    and selected index would be the channel.description part?
    and FIELD_NAME; is the variable name?
    does this go into a funtion or is it placed at the top where the variables are declared?

  • Mac Mini Sever - Public Share - how enable read and write permissions for new remote files

    Hi,
    this Sunday a friend ask me to help hum with a problem on is Man Mini Server. He has a small office and uses the mini server to share a public folder to all his employees.
    Everyone that creates a file, saves it to the public folder at the mini mac.
    That problem is that, who creates the file owns it and remains with read-only permissions to everyone else. The owner has to change the file permission in order to the rest of the employees can work on it.
    I do not know mac arquitecture, I only work with windows and linux, but i suspect the principles are the same.
    We try to create another folder , and share it, but it happens the same. Have you any ideas on what is wrong?
    I suspect it has anything to do with de file Sharing at the mini mac, but it has read and write permissions for everyone.
    Thanks for your help.
