How do you manipulate and display multiple DAQ channels?

I have two sensors wired into the same DAQ (USB) module.  I can monitor the signals in LabView using DAQ Assistant, but I'm having trouble separating the channels.  I would like to display the signals on separate waveform charts and also apply different conversion formulas to each one before writing the data to a file.  However, I can't find any way to distinguish between the two signals in either of the express VIs for these tasks.  I can display both signals simultaneously in one or more charts, but I can't figure out how to make each chart display a different signal.  I searched through LabView help and finished the DAQ tutorial, but neither helped with this simple problem.  It's very important that I learn to work with multiple channels, because I'll eventually have even more signals coming into this DAQ hardware.

Hey Jonnyboy,
Check out the example called Select Signals.vi.  Are you using dynamic data?  Go to Help>>Find Examples... and type select as the search word. 
Basically you have to index the one that you want using the Select Signal express VI.
Hope that helps get you in the right direction.

  • How do you enter and display album liner notes

    Ipod Touch, 16gig, 2nd generation. I have a sizeable jazz collection and am ripping a lot of CDs. No problem on adding album art. Question is, how can I enter album information such as side men (like the album may be Cannonball Adderley, but I want to note that John Coltrane played tenor on tracks x, y and z), when the album was recorded and where, historic facts of interest, etc. When I right click an album I've entered in the music section, I go to a page where I add my album art and I see a comments section. Is that it? But, as important, when I'm listening to the album on my Touch, how do I retrieve the notes on the Touch screen to read them?
    Thanks for any help!

    Paste the liner notes into the lyrics field in iTunes. They will then be visible on the Touch when you tap the album art (not in Coverflow)

    How do you select and move more than one bookmark at a time?
    Shift+Click does not select multiple items that are next to one another in a list because the items open in firefox before this happens.

    Use the bookmarks library. You may use Shift +Click, and Ctrl + Click to create groupings of selected bookmarks to drag and drop.

  • How do you make ruler display ticks every 12 inches instead of every 16 inches?

    Hi all,
    How do you make ruler display ticks every 12 inches instead of every 16 inches?

    I just wish that common features like layers, color, swatches, styles, masks, adjustments, character, paragraph and so on - looked and functioned the same across adobe applications. Is that too much to ask for?
    In some cases, that would be absurd. Photoshop and Illustrator are fundamentally differerent environments, as they should be. Photoshop Layers and Illustrator/InDesign Layers are entirely different things, because a vector drawing program works with arranging OBJECTS (raster images, vector paths, text objects) in a Z stacking order and XY position. A Photoshop Layer is essentially just another raster image of the same pixel count as all the others, viewed optionally opaquely or transparently on your screen. It would be ridiculous if Photoshop created a whole new raster image every time you colored another selection of pixels. It would be ridiculous if Illustrator created a new Layer everytime you draw a new path.
    Regarding text, Photoshop and Illustrator share the same lame text engine. Illustrator's should be like InDesign's, not like Photoshop's.
    And that is a good case-in-point negating the silly defensiveness of Illustrator's outdated and buggy functionality. Illustrator's text handling remains poor today. But it was not updated even to today's treatment until CS 1. For most of its history, its text handling was pathetically primitive compared to that of other programs which were designed for exactly the same purpose and which competed directly with it. Should one "defend" that fact with some nonsensical argument that 'Illustrator is not meant to be a word processor'?
    It was not until AI10 that its print dialog acquired a simple Fit To Page command. You had to manually figure and enter a scale factor, and that was limited on the low end to 25%. Can that logically be "defended" on the basis that 'AI is not an imagesetter'? Every dang software on the planet provides a Fit To Page print option!
    This "It's not a technical illustration program" argument is every bit as nonsensical. Every one of Illustrator's direct competitors provides for user-defined drawing scales, and has for decades. Illustrator is just as "technical" a drawing program as those others are. It's just particularly lame at it in this regard. And since when is "technical" illustration not "illustration"? And since when is user-defined drawing scale only needed for "technical" illustration? Absolutely ridiculous.
    So what if in its infancy Illustrator was a tool for PostScript workflow? Illustrator's leading competitor for most of its history, FreeHand, was initially based on the path drawing engine of a font design software. But when it went to market as a general illustration tool, it blew the functional and interface doors off Illustrator, and continued to do so throughout its history.
    The simple fact is this: Throughout its history, Illustrator never kept up with the basic drawing features, interface refinements, and performance of its direct competitors. Its market share is primarily due to its carrying an Adobe label--and to the absurd defensiveness of too many of its users who have next to no experience with anything else.
    Ilustrator, Indesign and Photoshop share about 90% of the same functionality.
    Where do you get that?
    Photoshop's primary purpose is fine-tuning of raster imagery, especially photography. You don't do sophisticated color correction, channel operations, sharpening, etc., in Illustrator or InDesign. That's what I would call its "90% functionality."
    InDesign's primary purose is automation of repetitive assembly tasks and text handling in high page-count documents. You don't do master pages, indexes, tables of contents, constant spooling the hard disk, hundreds of externally linked raster and vector files, chapters-long threaded text stories in Illustrator or Photoshop. That's what I would call its "90% functionality."
    Illustrator's primary purpose is general-purpose vector drawing (which most certainly includes many kinds of 'technical' illustration) using cubic Bezier curves, and page-assembly for low page-count, illustration-intensive documents. That's what I would call its "90% functionality."
    Now ask yourself: Should programs fundamentally structured for different primary purposes necessarily share the same interface? I say no, not necessarily. Example: The mere use of the same term (Layers) in Photoshop and Illustrator for what are fundamentally two different things has led to a gross misunderstanding on the part of Photoshop users who are Illustrator beginners, which is repeated here in this very forum almost every day.
    Ask yourself this: Should unyielding adherance to the organizational dictates of Adobe's so-called "unified" interface be allowed to result in a palette flyout menu in InDesign that contains only one option? Is the very concept of a 'menu' not fundametally antithetical to a single choice? Is that not just poor interface design, regardless of whether it "matches" that of the other programs in the so-called "suite"? (Frankly, I find Adobe's over-use of flyout menus--which effectively HIDE important options--generally both ill-conceived and poorly executed.)
    No, there simply is no excuse for Illusrator's still lacking user-defined drawing scales, just as there was no excuse for its lacking multiple pages for two full decades, just as there is no excuse for its still lacking reliable snaps, connector lines, live shape primitives (!), proper arc-drawing, proper corner rounding, inline graphics, auto-fitting textframes, the ability to join multiple paths at once, (note that NONE of those can be called specifically "technical" drawing features) and a plethora of other functions that are bare-bones basic to vector drawing. The programs is just archaic and outdated in all these regards, and that's all there is to it.

  • How do you get to the "Multiple Item Information" window so I can click "Part of a compilation:?

    How do you get to the "Multiple Item Information" window so I can click "Part of a compilation"?  When I transfer a CD to iTunes, and the CD has ten tracks, it loads as ten different albums.  Also, once this happens, do I have to delete the album and start over or is there a way to merge the albums in iTunes?  Using iTunes 10.04.08.

    And you've made me remember that using the compilation flag may only work in iTunes if you go into the Songs view, then use View > Column Browser > Show Column Browser and then View > Column Browser > Group Compilations to make sure this line is ticked.
    It is also best if View > Column Browser > Use Album Artists is also ticked.

  • In windows how do we install and activite multiple versions of tuxedo at the same time ?

    Hi All,
    In windows how do we install and activate multiple versions of tuxedo at the same time ?
    Advance wishes

    You can run different versions of Tuxedo on the same server, as long as they are installed in different directories.
    See PeopleTools 8.53 installation manual Task 3-1: Installing Oracle Tuxedo
    You can install Oracle Tuxedo once for each release on a machine, regardless of the number of PeopleSoft
    applications or databases the server supports. For example, if you are a PeopleSoft 9.1 customer and have
    Oracle Tuxedo 6.5 installed, you may install Oracle Tuxedo 6.5 and Oracle Tuxedo 11gR1 on the same
    machine in separate directories. For example:
    On Windows, you may install into C:\oracle\tuxedo11gR1_VS2010 and C:\tux65.
    On UNIX, you may install into /home/oracle/tuxedo11gR1 and /prod/tuxedo/6.5.

  • How can you modify the displayed columns on a Related Information List?

    How can you modify the displayed columns on a Related Information List? For example, how could you add the "Type" column to the List of columns displayed for Service Requests when you are viewing the Contacts Detail page?
    Thanks

    I'd have to say I think this is one of the biggest flaws in the OnDemand system currently. The solution I have come up with is to create reports and put them in webapplets showing the data I want to show. I have then removed the standard Related Info List Objects and added weblinks to create new records as the button on the List object is also gone.
    Keep in mind that doing this does slow things down a little, so it may not work if you have a big user base.

  • How can you change the display size on the task bar

    how do you change the display size on the task bar

    If, however, you want to change the size of the display of the menubar, meaning make the icons and text larger, there is no way to do that directly other than to change the resolution of the screen.
    You can change the as-viewed size of that temporarily by using either -
    • Mouse zoom - if you have a Magic Mouse (Apple wireless mouse), hold down the Control key and use the scroll up and scroll down finger gestures on the mouse.
    • Zoom - go to System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing and turn on Zoom. You can also use the noted keyboard shortcut to enable/disable this Zoom feature.

  • How do you Design and Develop?

    How do you Design and Develop?
    I know this varies based on alot of things such as knowledge, preference, purpose, resources, etc..but I am curious how different (level of expertise) designers actually prefer or implement their websites. I decided to do this post after two different forums discussions regarding 1.Templates and PHP and 2. Backend Development.
    1. How do you generally approach a project?--Wireframe, Freehand (as it comes), PSD template, etc.--Do you have a specific 'methodology' or procedure?
    2. What are 2-3 of your main resources / sites / applications etc that you use (and for what?)
    Specifically: What do you use (and how) to get up a website? (I know again this depends on a variety of things, but in general..) *also if you would like to comment on your expertise or level maybe helpful.
    Do you prefer (Pros/ Cons of:) What advice would you give regarding below?
    Your own HTML/CSS/Script based site that you mostly (if not completley) built. (More control and original, but harder / tedious for beginner)
    HTML Temlplate (tweak the HTML and CSS)--non framework type (Quick and easy, but usually poor quality, outdated?)--but some can servde as good starting point.
    Wordpress (And others like Drupal, Joomla) (Somewhat quick and easy access to tweak a quality WP Theme with ability for alot of features--forms, search, databases, etc (otherwise might have trouble with advanced features w/o good working knowledge og PHP and MYSQL, maybe others?)--but kind of a 'workaround' for real HTML design?
    Frameworks types like Foundation, Bootstrap, Skeleton
    A combination or hybrid of methods? -- or another method I have overlooked?
    Thanks very much for any insight you can offer, hopeully this will lead to a vibrant discussion.-

    The websites I build are 95% PHP/MySQL. They are heavy on business logic. I sometimes work with designers, SEO "experts" and (rarely) other coders. I almost never work on the content of websites. The clients do that themselves through the CMS I build for them.
    I write every line of code myself except for the use of jQuery and a few PHP code classes adapted from others. I can build a complex website in a matter of minutes by reusing the code libraries and patterns I have developed from previous projects.
    I don't use a PHP framework because I have developed my own "pseudo-framework" for the particular kinds of sites I build, but I respect the frameworks that are out there. They can teach you excellent coding habits.
    In starting the design and logic of a site, the most essential question is: What is the website (or website project) supposed to accomplish? My clients tell me what they want to accomplish, but I usually decide how to get there. This holds for both business logic and design, because design also must serve the business objectives.
    My website projects generally take four months to two years to complete. The client usually dedicates one employee to work as a liaison between me and the rest of the company. Because the sites I build are heavy on the business logic, a great deal of time is spent on testing and debugging. I make testing the responsibility of the client so I can't be held liable if, for instance, a terrible accounting mistake is discovered in the code logic.
    I like to use Adobe Illustrator for design development because I became an Adobe Illustrator ACE in 2000; however, I can see that Fireworks is probably the better tool. Photoshop is an important secondary tool.
    For general site management and code writing I use both Dreamweaver and ZEND Studio; however, I use Dreamweaver less and less.
    I now require all my clients to have their websites (and also domain name registrations, since my company is a domain name reseller) hosted on my VPS server. This prevents anyone from stealing code I have worked for years to develop and also establishes a commitment between myself and the client. When you are starting a web development business, you can't demand this kind of commitment from the client. Even a lot of great seasoned developers can't. It depends on your reputation within the specific industry(ies) you service.

  • Re: How do you create and use "common" type classes?

    Hi,
    You have 2 potential solutions in your case :
    1- Sub-class TextNullable class of Framework and add your methods in the
    sub-class.
    This is the way Domain class work. Only Nullable classes are sub-classable.
    This is usefull for Data Dictionary.
    The code will be located in any partition that uses or references the supplier
    plan.
    2- Put your add on code on a specific class and instanciate it in your user
    classes (client or server).
    You could also use interface for a better conception if needed. The code will
    also be in any partition that uses or references the supplier plan where your
    add on class is located.
    If you don't want that code to be on each partition, you could use libraries :
    configure as library the utility plan where is your add-on class.
    You can find an example of the second case (using a QuickSort class,
    GenericArray add-on) with the "QuickSort & List" sample on my personal site

    Hi Richard,
    Your question about "utility classes" brings up a number of issues, all of
    which are important to long-term success with Forte.
    There is no such thing as a static method (method that is associated with a
    class but without an implicit object reference - this/self/me "pointer") in
    TOOL, nor is there such thing as a global method (method not associated
    with a class at all). This is in contrast to C++, which has both, and
    Java, which has static methods, but not global classes. Frequently, Forte
    developers will write code like this:
    result, num : double;
    // get initial value for num....
    tmpDoubleData : DoubleData = new;
    tmpDoubleData.DoubleValue = num;
    result = tmpDoubleData.Sqrt().DoubleValue;
    tmpDoubleData = NIL; // send a hint to the garbage collector
    in places where a C++ programmer would write:
    double result, num;
    // get initial value for num....
    result = Math::Sqrt(num);
    or a Java programmer would write:
    double result, num;
    // get initial value for num....
    result = Math.sqrt(num);
    The result of this is that you end up allocating an extra object now and
    then. In practice, this is not a big deal memory-wise. If you have a
    server that is getting a lot of hits, or if you are doing some intense
    processing, then you could pre-allocate and reuse the data object. Note
    that optimization has its own issues, so you should start by allocating
    only when you need the object.
    If you are looking for a StringUtil class, then you will want to use an
    instance of TextData or TextNullable. If you are looking to add methods,
    you could subclass from TextNullable, and add methods. Note that you will
    still have to instantiate an object and call methods on that object.
    The next issue you raise is where the object resides. As long as you do
    not have an anchored object, you will always have a copy of an object on a
    partition. If you do not pass the object in a call to another partition,
    the object never leaves. If you pass the object to another partition, then
    the other partition will have its own copy of the object. This means that
    the client and the server will have their own copies, which is the effect
    you are looking for.
    Some developers new to Forte will try to get around the lack of global
    methods in TOOL by creating a user-visible service object and then calling
    methods on it. If you have a general utility, like string handling, this
    is a bad idea, since a service object can reside only on a single
    partition.
    Summary:
    * You may find everything you want in TextData.
    * Unless you anchor the object, the instance will reside where you
    intuitively expect it.
    * To patch over the lack of static methods in TOOL, simply allocate an
    instance when required.
    Feel free to email me if you have more questions on this.

    application uses a SendGatewayMessage method to start an
    interaction with a client, such as an SMS user. In this case, the
    sending code must keep track (for example, in a database) of the
    messages it sends and their destinations. When a response event
    arrives, it can look up the origniatorID to determine whether it
    was in response to an outgoing message.
    I will play around with the Application scope to see if there
    might be a workable solution there.
