How to control valve via PCI6023E and labview

I have a PCI6023 board and labview 5.1. I need to control the opening/closing of a gas valve via these two.The problem is that the power needed to operate the valve is 24 volts while the PCI6023E board has the power of only 5V. What can be done? Please help.

Run a secondary power supply to the valve via a transistor triggered by the DAQ board. You can get a cheap AC/DC wall plug in supply for a coupla bucks and transistors are a few cents.

  • Control valve that opens and closes linearly using DSC

    I have to create a control valve that opens and closes linearly.I want to view its variation in percentage wise in the graphical form which uses DSC module.

    Hi Gerardjoe,
    I'm not sure that I completely understand what you're trying to do. In the DSC modules, the valves (2D and 3D) are simply boolean indicators.
    One thing you could do, to see some sort of a percentage change, would be to have an indicator such as a vertical fill slide. Here, you would put a number between 0-100.
    Then, you could have a comparison, such that if this value was over, say, 60, then the boolean value would be true and the valve would turn on. Else, the value would be false and the valve would stay false.
    I hope that this answers your question; if I did not understand correctly, please do respond and clarify.

  • How to extract data via webservices and configure webservices in BI 7

    Hi to all,
    Can any body tell me How to extract data via webservices and configure webservices in BI 7.
    i have created a remote functionmodule which extract data from R/3 , now i want to upload data to BI 7 using that remote function module.
    i have use webservice (push) as adapter mode, as i want to connect function module with SOAP , via web services.
    please can any body tell how to do that.
    also how to configure the webserive , what is it .
    I SHALL BE THANKFULL TO YOU FOR THAT
    Regards
    Pavneet rana

    Hi,
    1. Using the function library (transaction SE37), call the Web service creation wizard.
    To do this, select the desired function module in the function library and choose Utilities ®Generate Web Service ® From the Function Module.
    2. Go through the following steps, shown in the wizard:
    a. Create a virtual interface.
    The virtual interface represents the interface between the Web Service and the outside.
    b. Choose the end point.
    The name of the function module that is to be offered as Web service is already entered here.
    c. Create the Web service definition.
    The Web service definition helps with assigning the Web service features, such as how security can be guaranteed in data transfer.
    d. Release the Web service.
    The wizard generates the object virtual interface and Web service definition in the object navigator.
    The function group that was generated when the XML DataSource was created is not transportable and is thus assigned to a local package. To prevent errors due to transports, make sure that the objects that were generated in the Web service creation wizard are assigned to a local non-transportable package.
    The Web service is released for the SOAP runtime.
    3. In the virtual interface for the import parameter DATASOURCE, define the name of the XML DataSource as the fixed value.
    A separate function group is generated for each XML DataSource. It makes sense to pre-assign the parameter DATASOURCE with the name of the XML DataSource in the virtual interface of the Web service for which the function group was generated.
    If you do not pre-assign the parameter, it will be necessary to transfer the data sent with the appropriate filled DataSource element, for example, by setting the value in the application that implements the Web service.
    a. In the object navigator, choose the name of the package in which the Web service was created and choose Enterprise Services ® Web Service Library ® Virtual Interfaces.
    b. Choose Change in the context menu for the virtual interface.
    c. For the virtual interface, remove the flags exposed and initial and enter the name of the XML DataSource in apostrophes, for example u20196ADATASOURCENAMEu2019.
    d. Activate the virtual interface.
    Regards,
    Marasa.

  • NB520, NB550D - how to control volume at Sleep and Music state?

    I'm looking for a possibility to control volume at Sleep and Music state...
    The only fact I've noticed is that volume depends on the level set when the computer was working. But how can I change it at Sleep and Music state when the comp is swich off?

    Hi TomPL,
    I have checked the user manual and found the following information:
    The volume adjustment and mute setting might be different between Windows mode and Sleep and Music mode. Before connecting the audio device to the computer, turn down the volume of the audio device. Sound quality may also be different.
    So according this information you have to set the volume in Windows but it could be a little bit different. I found no information about changing the volume in sleep and music mode.

    After you send "PT19" to the 8757, usually at address 16.
    Send the commands you want to go to the 8350 to address 17.
    To terminate the passthru mode, send any command to address of the 16.
    Ex:
    To Address 16: PT19;
    To Address 17: FA 8 GZ;FB 16 GZ;PL 0 DM;
    To Address 16: C1 IA;

    What do you mean with "control the output voltage of the USB port" do you want to drive the motor directly from the USB port

  • MIDI CC how to control Logic via IPad

    Hi Forum
    Ive connected my Ipad via OSC to Logic, works well,
    but can anyone tell me how I assign the avaliable midi CC to LOGIC.
    I've read tons of pages with MIDI CC lists but what is the strategi when mapping ones MIDI CC,
    yours
    Bo

    I don't believe any of those apps allow you to "load' a project.... which was one of the OP's requirements..
    Am I wrong?
    This is why I suggested Touch OSC because you can literally configure anything using that app.. and for example.. have just a simple screen to load and save and then tab to a different screen for other customized uses...
    Of course, it will require some programming skills in Touch OSC but it will do it.. and you may have to do/setup certain things in Logic to make it possible... but with a bit of study and some help from the Touch OSC community, it will be possible.
    I am unaware of any 'off the shelf' app that will allow you to open a project in Logic Pro.. but again, I could be wrong?

  • How will i link flowmeter sensor and labview

    Hello everyone,
    I am new in this forum and alson in labview.I have a flowmeter sensor, I made cable connections bewteen the sensor and DAQ(NI-USB 6229) The question is what am i supposed to do to read the data on sensor.I just want to measure read the flowmeter sensor and dont know how to construct the labview diagram.I searched on net and learned that I have to do something with counters to convert square signal to a grapgh.and also I searched some codes about it but there must be an easy way to do this it ooks too complicated.In attachment I am sending the vi file.
    Can you please help me because I have limited time..
    Thanks in advance.

    Why did you attach a VI that writes out an analog output rather than a VI that actually reads in a signal?
    What type of signal is the flowmeter putting out?
    Did you look in LabVIEW help?  There are dozens of examples there for reading different signals using DAQmx.

  • How to control instron 5582 utm thru labview

    hi all
    i am student and new to labview.
    as a part of my project, i need to control an instron 5582 universal testing machine(UTM) thru labview.
    is this feasible? can it be done thru a daq card or gpib? any information regarding this will be useful since
    i just have 5 mths to complete this.

    Mr. Bond,
    From the way it looks in the brochure for your Instron 558x, all of the data acquisition and control is built into the hardware. I also noticed that the hardware comes with its own software interface for displaying measurements and utilizing its functionality. If the whole system is integrated, there may be no point to interface with another software program (namely, LabVIEW).
    You might try contacting the manufacturer or obtaining a more detailed user manual. Specifically, you are interested in whether the controls and measurements are exposed to the user. For example, there may be a simple connector through which you can control the instrument serially. Or the data acquisition done on the device may be accessible on an output port. Also, I would be quite surprised if the device was GPIB controllable.
    Hopefully these can be a few questions to ask the manufacturer to try to use LabVIEW for control and data presentation. Good luck with your application!

  • How to control a parallel port with labview

    Hi. I'm trying to control a dc motor with a parallel port using labview. the program has to be able to vary the out put voltage of the computer (0 - 5V) through the parallel port into a circuit which will step up the voltage for the motor. Any help would be greatly appreicated. garreth

    Do you want to output and varying signal from the parallel port pins? If so you can't do it, the port pins are digital and can only be high or low, not inbetween. You can control the individual lines high or low using the In/Out Port vis in Advanced>>Port I/O. For more help on doing this search the message archives (I know I've answered a few) and NI's site, there is some good info on it out there. Try some of these for starters:

  • Help with TCP/IP communication via Teststand and Labview

    Hello,
    I am trying to create a sequence of tests and need to communicate between LabView vi's and another program over a TCP connection. When I have the sequence hard coded in LabView everything works fine, but my goal is to break up the sequence into steps and execute it in Teststand. Currently, the working LabView code sets up a listener, and the other program establishes the connection. Once the connection is established, I use the Read/Write to TCP blocks for the programs to send messages back and forth.
    What I first tried in Teststand is to create a simple vi under Setup, that creates the listener, then the user is prompted to run the script on the other program to establish the connection. On the vi, I clicked on "create -> indicator" for the connection ID, then wired it as an output intending to use it in other vi's in the main part of the sequence.
    The main (and very strange) problem is that TestStand will crash before I even get a chance to execute the sequence. Starting with a blank sequence, I open up an "Action," then "Browse for vi" on the Module tab and once I select that simple vi mentioned above, Teststand crashes before it's even loaded properly. A screenshot of the error, the error report (which mentions that the problem is with seqedit.exe), as well as the vi in question is attached.
    This crash happens every single time I try to load the vi into the sequence. It seems to load ok on our NI machine running Windows XP, but it keeps on crashing on my pc (also running XP, i5 processor 1.85Gb RAM).
    Is the problem with the LabView code, Teststand or my pc? I've tried re-installing Teststand but to no avail.
    Any help is appreciated, and thank you in advance,
    Sorin

  • Af:query how to control the query combobox and change it's label text

    My colleague designed a well working af:query search page with several selectable predefined queries. Now it's up to me to control this combobox from outside the component with big colored buttons for user convenience. If the user clicks on one of the big buttons, the assigned item of the combobox is selected and then the query is submitted.
    I though about doing this with javascript, but the difficulty is, that I have no idea and didn't find a way to reference the id of the combobox? The combobox is a 'built in' component in he af:query component and there is no way to give it an id in the properties.
    The second problem is that I didn't find a way to change the label text of the combobox. It seems to be hard coded?
    Thanks in advance for your suggestion!

    Hi,

    Note however that you should be able to do in Java what you are aimning for in JavaScript. However the usecase you want to implement is not fully clear to me - to be honest

  • Forgotten password on iPhone 5, how can i reset via iTunes and use the phone?

    I bought a used iPhone 5 from a friend, and unfortunately i found out there is a passcode when turning it on!!, and the old owner of the phone has forgot it! i tried 3-4 times and it said "wrong password",  WHat can I do to be able to launch the phone, or reset it via iTunes?

    If it has been disabled after entering the wrong passcode - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.
    Unfortunately, you must restore it in iTunes on your computer.   There is no way to retrieve a forgotten pass lock code.
    You will need to restore your device from the same computer that you most recently synced to, and restore the device. See - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.
