How to automate lambda power supply

Can anyone help me how to automate lambda powersupply..Using the lambda drivers vi I've configure to control powersupply programed by setting different voltage levels and current limits at regular interval by changing input variable... Now I have to automate this system to automatically set the pre programmed values and perform the operation.

Naveen,
You will need to use Action step of Teststand using the labview adapter.You can refer the help or the examples to find out how to call VI from TestStand.

Lambda power supply+labview+current control

Hi there,
I want to control the output current from TDK lambda power supply based on input from a pressure sensor. Based on available drivers from Lambda site, I was only able to output certain current and voltage value. But don't know how to control it depending on other input like pressure reading.
Is there any way to do this in labview?
Thanks in advance.
Arihant.

Unfortunately I don't have drivers for either of 'Pfeiffer vacuum gauge controller' and 'TDK lambda power supply'...!!
But went through your code, and it looks like you're reading from both the instruments... but you should be reading only from 'Pfeiffer vacuum gauge controller' and should be writing (current or voltage or both values) to 'TDK lambda power supply'...!!
Now before you write the new (current or voltage or both) value(s)... you can place a simple algorithm that will calculate new value (based on reading from 'Pfeiffer vacuum gauge controller')....!!
I am not allergic to Kudos, in fact I love Kudos.

Sample programmes in C# for setting voltage in a TDK lambda power supply

please provide some guidance for setting the voltage of a TDK lambda power supply through GPIB. Any driver software needto be installed?

If you use an NI GPIB controller, then you will need to install NI-488 and it is recommended to install and use NI-VISA. There will be coding examples installed with the drivers. You don't mention the model number but you might find an existing instrument driver from NI or the vendor.

How big of a power supply should I get? / ram question

Here's what I have
K7T266 Pro2-RU motherboard
Radeon 9800 pro
2 40gb hd's raided
1 20gb hd
cd burner
dvd drive
Audiophile sound card (forgot the model #)
and i'll soon have either 512 or 1024 of kingston hyper x pc2700 ram
right now my power supply is 300w and i'm pretty sure that's not good enough.
when i install the new ram, i'm also gonna install a new power supply. how many w should it be, and any recommendations on brands to get?

When I look for any part I always try to find the best deal, price/performance.
Are you in the UK?
I have the JSP sprite PSU 550W and I would recommend it to anyone.
Its a 550w PSU, the make is JSP.

How to change the power supply to the CD/DVD Drive so that it is off by default?

When running on battery I often use the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon from XP to "unplug" the Mat****a CD/DVD drive in order to safe some battery life.(Does it?) I use Fn+Tab to bring it back to life. I wonder if there is a way to make my Notebook (M400) boot with the power supply to the Drive off by default. By the way, any idea where I can find the extra battery for the CD/DVD-Drive slot and at which price?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello Robert
If you check start page you will see that this support forum is not any kind of Toshiba support directly but user-to-user forum. But you are not alone and many users expect that some Toshiba support team sit in the office and wait to write answers.
Anyway there are many Toshiba notebook users with very good knowledge and also enthusiasts who try to help other guys with different issues and also share own experience.
Professionalism is not forum but action when you need assistance because of hardware damage or something similar. If you need competent answers and help every authorized service partner should be able to give you info you need. But please dont mix service partner and Toshiba because it is not the same.
Anyway I have found info that you can use additional (second expansion battery) and it should be batteries with part numbers PA3510U-1BAL and PA3510U-1BRL. I can not tell you how much it costs but you can find it alone using Google.
Back to your first question: If I am understand you right you want to save more power and because of that you want to disconnect ODD. It is nice idea but you have obviously misunderstood something. "Safely Remove Hardware option is there to help operating system and say this hardware part will be removed and dont exist anymore but it does not mean physically disconnection from other hardware.
If you need more power use second battery and enjoy your life.
If you have more questions you are welcome. Many users here have M400 and I hope in the future some of them will participate a little bit more.
Have a nice day! :)

How to recognize fake power supply for iPhone?

Hello,
last year in August I purchased at Amazon a "original" power supply plus USB-Cable for my iPhone 3GS. Now this thing sometimes works and sometimes it doesn´t. I called the vendor but he sees no responsibility for the artivle because it is out of warranty.
I told him that to me (and by comparing with other Apple-Hardware) the article looks pretty fake and therefore it does not matter if it is out of warranty or not - he sold fake hardware with "original" labeling on it.
Now I would like to verify my guess and see if this thing is fake or not. Do you have any idea how I can do this or what I should do now?
Thank you
kcn

To some extent it depends where the OP lives. In the UK and the EU warranties are expected to be for two years (though Apple still advertises one year). There are however, different definitions about what a manufacturing fault is.

How to check the power supply? iMac G3 233

How to do it?
Can i just take the case with the mainboard out and "short" the pins Power on (pin 8) with GND and check the voltages on the connector that comes out of the monitor case?
I know that the pin 8 is the power from articles about imac>atx case conversion.And i know that you can power up a normal ATX power supply by shortening two pins, and want to know if i can do the same with iMAc power supply. I don't want to fry anything.

Sounds like you have eliminated most of the possibilities, other than power supply board or motherboard. But it may also be the CPU daughter card that is faulty. I had one (233 MHz) that would run Mac OS 9 just fine, but it was unable to run Mac OS X reliably (crashes and freezes after a few minutes). I replaced it first with a 333 MHz G3 card off of eBay and later with a 467 MHz G4 card from the Fastmac booth at MacWorld San Francisco two years ago.
If you are comfortable disassembling the iMac to the point of removing the power supply board, you can layout the PS board and the carrier assembly (the thing you pull out with the motherboard, CPU card, and drives) on a table top. Then connect the power supply board to the carrier assembly, and connect the external power cord plug to the power supply board, and connect a keyboard with a power button to the carrier.
To measure the voltages, you can disconnect the 4-pin connector to the hard drive. If you turn it on using the power button on the keyboard, it will not start up with the hard drive not powered up (unless you use a bootable CD), but the system should be powered so that you can take your measurements.
Hope that works. Be careful with the exposed back end of the CRT. Keep any curious cats out of the room while you do this...

How to control HV power supply (0-5V control voltage)?

Hey there,
I (LV newbie) wonder how to control my DELTA ELEKTRONIKA Powersupply with Labview. The control interface is a 0-5V analog input to set the power supply's output current.
Also I want to get some feedback of the set power supply current from an second (GPIB-controlled) instrument.
So how do I have to program a closed loop contol (application is not time critical), cause it would be mixed up of controlling by analog out (0-5V) and feedback loop driven on the GPIB-Card?
For a first step a simple control loop to set the current and monitor it on an analog input would also be an assistance .
THX for anyone helping

Look in the example finder for DAQmx functions for analog input and analog output.

How to connect QL355TP Power Supply

Greetings,
I am trying to get a TTi QL355TP to connect through the USB connection to Labview. I have downloaded the driver for this instrument but whenever I try to run TQLP initialise (or any of the VIs) I get the error message Initialize.vi<ERR>Driver Status: (Hex 0xBFFA0000). I am using a port named COM9 which I can get to work through NI-VISA by setting the correct baud rate (19200) to respond to an IDN? enquiry. However when I try to use this in the resource name (ASRL9::INSTR) - i recieve the above error message. Am i missing a step out (maybe setting the baud rate) on Labview?. Any help would be much appreciated
Many Thanks
Graeme Smith

I don't think you need to define the instrument in MAX unless you wanted to use the IVI class driver instead. Since you are using a serial connection, I'm wondering whether TT added serial support in their driver. I might be worthwhile sending them a query to see if they did.
One of the things I dislike about IVI drivers is that you need CVI to edit them. I have CVI but not on the pc I'm using right now. I'll try to find some time to get to that pc and look at the source code but I can't promise when I can do that. I'm assuming that the download page is http://www.ttinst.co.uk/downloads/drivers-download.htm. Exactly which driver are you using?

How to Replace Power Supply

I'm stuck with what I thought was going to be an easy job - compared to a G5 tower or an iMac.
I need to replace the power supply in my Mac Pro (2008) but I'm stuck at getting the small cover off. I've removed the metal plate that was under the optical drives (POV when looking through the side). But it seems there's a small cover for the power supply that's similar to the big processor cover for the liquid cooled G5 towers. I can't figure out how to remove that.
Does anyone have a link to a manual or take-apart guide for the Mac Pro?
Thanks!

Before you begin, open the computer, lay it on its side with the access side facing up, and remove
the following:
• Hard drives and hard drive carriers in drive bays 3 and 4
• Optical drive carrier and optical drives
• Any PCI Express cards that block access to the power supply mounting screws
1. Using a short-handled, magnetized 2.5 mm hex screwdriver, remove the four power supply
mounting screws from the bottom of the media shelf.
2. Depress the upper right corner of the power supply and slide the power supply toward the
front of the computer.
3. Lift the power supply a short distance and rest it on the edge of the enclosure.
4. Starting with the top connector and working down, disconnect the four connectors on the
power supply cable from the four connectors on the power harness cable. Note: You must release the locking latch on each power supply cable connector before detaching the connector.
5. Remove the power supply from the enclosure.
Replacing the Power Supply:
1. Rest the power supply on the edge of the enclosure so that its cable can reach the media
shelf divider. Note: The following four steps explain how to reconnect the power supply cable connectors with the power harness connectors. When the power harness connectors are in their original position in the media shelf divider, it is not possible to see where they mate with the power
supply cable connectors. Therefore, the next step shows how to temporarily remove the power harness connectors from the divider for a better line of sight.
2. Starting with the top connector and working down, release the four power harness cable
connectors from their openings in the media shelf divider. Note: Each connector has two locking latches that hold it to the divider. To release the connector, depress the bottom latch first and then the top latch. You may find a flat-blade screwdriver useful in depressing the latches.
3. Placing a hand on either side of the media shelf divider, thread the J1 connector on the power supply cable through the top connector opening in the media shelf divider and connect it to the PS1 connector on the power harness. Repeat for the other three power supply cable connectors.
4. Important: The first three connectors on the power supply cable are marked J1, J2, and J3; the fourth connector is not marked. The four connectors on the power harness cable are marked PS1, PS2, PS3, and PS4. You must connect J1 to PS1, J2 to PS2, etc.
5. Starting at the bottom connector and working up, depress the locking latches on each power harness connector and reinsert it into its opening in the media shelf divider. Important: Test that all power supply cable connectors and power harness connectors are fully seated by tugging on the cables on both sides of each of the four paired connectors.
6. Fold the power supply cable on the bottom of the power supply bay.
7.Lift the power supply and holding the power supply at an angle, llower it into the enclosure until its
upper right corner slides under the corner lip of the enclosure.
8. Slide the power supply toward the back of the computer as far as possible.
9. Make sure the power receptacle aligns with the opening in the enclosure’s back panel and
the four screw holes in the power supply align with the screw holes in the media shelf.
10. Replace the four power supply mounting screws.
