How should i modify the hp54600a instrument driver for GPIB so i can use it for RS232 interface ?

I try to modify the hp54600a instrument driver for GPIB, so i can use it with RS232. But somehow it didnt work. When i try to run the initilize it, the prgoram show VISA read error (time is up before the process is finish). How should I modify the VI so I can use it with RS232 interface ?

First, check the instrument's user manual to see if the GPIB and serial command sets are the same. Also check to see what EOS(End of String) characters the instrument requires. Then, do a loopback test to test communication in LabVIEW.

    I have an IMAC and I'm running OSX 10.9.2.  I'd like to store my Aperture /IMovie Libraries on an external hard drive.  In addition, I'd like to partition the external hard drive so that Time Machine can use it to both back up my IMac and the external library drives.  Is this possible? Can I set up a RAID 5 format for redundancy?

    I'd like to store my Aperture /IMovie Libraries on an external hard drive.
    That is fine and recommended.. use the fastest disk you can afford.. ie Thunderbolt>USB3>FW800>USB2.
    In addition, I'd like to partition the external hard drive so that Time Machine can use it to both back up my IMac and the external library drives.
    Let me be clear.. you want to partition the one disk.. use it for TM and move your files to the external disk.. and then backup to the same disk.. You can do it.. but that is not a backup.. that is an experiment in how long you can get away with running files and backups on the same disk before you lose everything.. like Russian Roulette.. pull the trigger enough times and laws of probability will do you in.
    You must have backups on a different disk .. otherwise it is pointless.
    Can I set up a RAID 5 format for redundancy?
    No.. you can buy special USB and Thunderbolt external drives that support RAID..
    BUT that is still not a backup.. let me show why.. you make a silly move and corrupt your file in aperture.. it is not that rare.
    Raid will corrupt all copies of the files.. it is replicated across all disks.
    Delete a photo it is deleted across all disks.. you have no recovery.
    Alway, always consider RAID system one disk.. backup onto another disk.. and if the photos or movies are at all important to you.. ie your family .. make another copy and store in a relatives house.. There is no such thing as too much redundancy.

    How do i change the "profile" picture on m iPad when I'm using iMessenger for IOS5?

    You do realize that only you see the photo associated with this correct - nobody else will see your photo - only you will.
    You have to add the photo in the contacts app. Locate your vcard and tap Edit. Then tap the area where the photo will be located to add a photo. You can take a photo or choose one from your photos app.

  • So I have a (PC) laptop with 8gb of RAM and I'm running CC on it. I haven't set it up on this before so I'm wondering how much should I set the RAM usage to in performance so I can use it but not ruin this laptop?

    I just don't know where specifically to put the RAM at in the preferences option.
    I mainly use it for digital painting and sketching on this. (not so much painting on this but digital art)

    8 GB is about the realistic minimum for Photoshop nowadays.
    Set it to about 70% and go for there.  Note that it represents a maximum percentage of your momentarily available RAM after the OS and other running application have grabbed what they need., not a percentage of total installed RAM.  It changes continually.
    The rule of thumb I follow to figure out scratch space says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open.  I have seen the scratch file exceed 800 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
    As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS.  I also have 16 GB of RAM installed.
    Additionally, if you only have a single HD, i.e. your boot drive, you'd need it to be large enough to accommodate both the swap files of the OS as well as Photoshop's scratch.

  • How do I clear the start up drive to download the new operating system

    how do I clear the start up drive to download the new operating system

    Here are some general tips to keep your Mac's hard drive trim and slim as possible
    You should never, EVER let a computer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
    With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
    If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
    Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
    Have you emptied your Mac's Trash icon in the Dock?
    If you use iPhoto or Aperture, both have its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
    If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
    If you are an iMovie/ Final Cut user, both apps have their own individual Trash location that needs to be emptied, too!
    If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
    Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
    Look through your other Mailboxes and other Mail categories to see If there is other mail you can archive and/or delete.
    STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
    Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
    Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
    Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
    To find other large files, download an app called Omni Disk Sweeper.
    http://www.omnigroup.com/more
    Also, Find Any File
    http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/
    Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
    http://www.titanium.free.fr/downloadonyx.php
    When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
    Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
    move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
    If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
    Moving iTunes library

  • How should I tune the PID to improve 'Jog Axis' reponse?

    In MAX the 'Jog Axis' reponse as the accessory.
    When decelerating the velocity, it exceed zero more to a large negative velocity. And this makes the settling time long.
    How should I tune the PID to disappear the phenomena? Anybody can tell me?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi, Jochen. Thanks for your answer. Now I try to express my question in detail.
    System: 2_D position table (50mm*50mm)
    hardware:  PCI7344 + 2 voice coil motor + driver(no feedback,just a amplifier) + 0.5micron encoder(Renishaw) as the position feedback
    software: Labview7.1 + MAX3.1
    Aim: To get the setting time of single axis lower than 40ms (even if there is some overshot)
    The document you mentioned I have read before. When I tune the servo,'Auto tune' can't get meaningful parameters. So all the time I tune it manually.
    1, About Step reponse: I can get a setting time lower than 40ms(step 1000 counts + 200 sample) by accident, but the same PID I can't get the good result all the time.
    2,When I use 'start motion.flx' moving 6000 counts (400000 counts/s+32000000 counts/s^2+S curve time 3) or use 'Jog axis',the setting time are more than 100ms (see axis.jpg). I try to increase the Td or Kd. It can change the overshot, but the setting time is not ideal.  IF Kd too large, the system will unstable.  I think maybe the aim is unpractical, right? Jochen, has you tune some table whose setting time lower than 40ms using 7344?
    3,what's the relationship between 'step reponse' and 'Jog axis'.Should I tune the PID according to 'Step reponse' or 'Jog axis'? (In 'Jog axis', the velocity and Acceleration and Deceleration also play an important role.)
    4,The driver have no current feedback.I guess it is an important problem.what'a your opinion?

    In Finder's Menu, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes". (no quotes)
    Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
    Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists. Try trashing the duplicates with a 1 or 2 if there are no real files in them, and reboot.

  • How do I access an external hard drive attached to an Airport Extreme using the Finder's "Go to the folder" feature?

    How do I access an external hard drive attached to an Airport Extreme using the Finder's "Go to the folder" feature?
    I have an external hard drive attached to my Airport Extreme and I can access it just fine through Finder.  I would like to be able to keyboard navigate to it in an efficient manner.  I tried to use the "Go to the folder" feature but was unable to.
    I had tried dragging the drive to the Network folder but the shortcut it created does not lead to the drive's contents...it seems to lead right back to the parent directory:
    I hope I explained the question well.  Thank you for all of your help and time in tending to my inquiry.

    Cant you set up "back to my mac" then go to finder preferences and put a check mark under everything under the shared location. Also set up back to my mac on your airport extreme.

    Self tuning will automatically manage the threads but however you can still control the min and max by adding the min and max values for each instance either directly adding in config.xml or through JVM settings
    1) Modifying the config.xml
    Just add the following line(s) to each server definition :
    <server>
    <name>AdminServer</name>
    <self-tuning-thread-pool-size-min>100</self-tuning-thread-pool-size-min>
    <self-tuning-thread-pool-size-max>200</self-tuning-thread-pool-size-max>
    </server>
    2) Adding some JVM parameters
    It's safer the following way :
    add the following option in your command line : -Dweblogic.threadpool.MinPoolSize=100

  • In iMovie, how do you modify the duration of all the clips at once?

    In iMovie, using Mavericks O/S, how do you modify the duration of all the clips at once?

    To set the duration of any clips to be added in the future select the project then "Settings" above the viewer.    Adjust the slider to the right of "Clips" to the desired duration.
    To change clips already in the timeline, select all of the ones you want to change (so they have a yellow border), click on "Adjust" then click the info button (i in a circle).  You will see "Duration:"  Set the time in seconds and press return.
    Geoff.
