How to count and stop at multiple encoder locations
Hello, I was given an assignment at school to create an encoder-based stepper motor driven wheel to be stopped at multiple preset locations as established in a simple list and controlled by a M series board (PCI-6221). The task involves a spreadsheet created list of locations (Stop locations) on the encoder where the stepper motor will need to advance to, stop for a preset period then advance to the next encoder location and so on until the list of locations is completed.
Specifics
1 stepper enable line to run motor that spins the wheel
1 quadrature input pair with reset (Index)
1 Power disable for stepper driver
Period of stop to be from 100msec to 10 sec
I have studied and searched for answers but I am stumped on the stop point list. How can I enter this "stop list" without writing a separate program? According to the teacher, there is a way to do this all in Labview but I can't find it.
Thanks so much for any help you can offer me,
Jessie

How to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with one iTunes account
We recently received iPad 2's for Christmas and was looking for some advice on how to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with One iTunes Account (Apple Id). I have created or attached other e-mail addresses to our apple id but do not know how to use them on the new devices. Our home MacBook Pro uses our main apple id for FaceTime. The iPads have been setup with the main apple id w/o being able to use FaceTime and iMessage.
Please Help...
I appreciate the help and support.P and V-
If you are trying to connect to someone with a different Apple ID, I think all the devices should work, but one at a time.
The problem is when you try to connect between two with the same Apple ID. Once the calling device tries to make the connection, it finds the second device to be "busy". That is where each needs to use a different E-Mail address when setting it up.
On iOS devices, when you press the Home button to exit an App, the App may still be active in the background, even when the device is sleeping. If FaceTime or iMessage is merely being active that way, it may be enough to "tie up" the E-Mail address.
From the Home screen, double click your Home button. You will see a list of recent Apps along the bottom of the screen. Press and hold on one of them until they start to wiggle. You will then see a red minus sign on each. Pressing the minus sign will remove an App from the list, and stop it from working in the background. (Click the Home button to stop the wiggling, and again to hide the recent Apps.)

How to Start and Stop Processes?
How to Start and Stop Processes?
Im trying to create a program which allows me to Start and Stop (and Restart) GameServers. I will then expand on this so i can start and stop them through a web applet with build in useraccounts.
Currently the way we do this is to log into the server using a RemoteAssistance. Which is not very safe as the users have the abbility to do anything on the server and potentially corrupt it.
Below is my code for how i start the servers. But i dont know how i would stop the process.
private void startServers()
for(GameServer gs : servers)
int ID = Integer.parseInt(gs.getID());
if(isChecked(ID))
try
String cmd[] = gs.getStartString();
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
int sleepPeriod = Integer.parseInt(sleepField.getText());
Thread.sleep(sleepPeriod*100);
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println(e);
}//end of iterator
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"All Selected Servers Have been started.","Servers Started",2);
}//end of startserversAnyhelp would be great thanks.Using the process class would give you a nicer API, but using destroy isn't a nice way to shutdown a process. Its like killing the process with your task manager. You should make a connection in some way with the game server and tell it to shutdown in stead (gracefull termination).

How to Start and Stop the SAP System
Hi,
I have installed "Sneak Preview"; Searched for start and stop scripts but there are more than one script which has named start.bat and stop.bat. Moreover, I searched the documents which comes with Sneak Preview but could find useful instruction there either.
Question: Could you please point me to the documentation where it explains the starting and stopping SAP, for Sneak Preview?
Thanks in advance

How to Starting and Stopping OC4J Server using Ant
How to Starting and Stopping OC4J Server using Ant
In the ant task definitions for ant-oracle-classes.jar (see antlib.xml) there are two tasks called
name="restartServer" classname="oracle.ant.taskdefs.deploy.JSR88StartServer"
name="shutdownServer" classname="oracle.ant.taskdefs.deploy.JSR88ShutdownServer"
I thought that these would shutdown and start the OC4J server. I guessed the parameters as – (Does anyone know where 50 ant targets are documented?)
<oracle:restartServer
userid="${oc4j.admin.user}"
password="${oc4j.admin.password}"
deployeruri="${deployer.uri}"
/>
<oracle:shutdownServer
userid="${oc4j.admin.user}"
password="${oc4j.admin.password}"
deployeruri="${deployer.uri}"
/>
This, however does not start and stop the SOA suite. To do that I've hacked this solution together -
<path id="oc4j.console">
<pathelement location="${oracle.home}/config"/>
<pathelement location="${oracle.home}/jlib/startupconsole.jar"/>
<pathelement location="${oracle.home}/opmn/lib/optic.jar"/>
<pathelement location="${oracle.home}/lib/xmlparserv2.jar"/>
</path>
<target name="stop" description="stop oc4j server" depends="init">
<java classname="oracle.appserver.startupconsole.view.Runner">
<classpath refid="oc4j.console"/>
<sysproperty key="ORACLE_HOME" path="${oracle.home}"/>
<arg value="stop"/>
</java>
</target>
<target name="start" description="restart oc4j server" depends="init">
<java classname="oracle.appserver.startupconsole.view.Runner">
<classpath refid="oc4j.console"/>
<sysproperty key="ORACLE_HOME" path="${oracle.home}"/>
<arg value="start"/>
</java>
</target>
This sort of works – except when the SOA suite doesn't stop cleanly – and needs user interaction to press a Close button. This isn't very useful when doing a continous integration build and deploy.
So, does anyone have any suggestions or alternative methods to do this?
- frankActually if the server throws exceptions when it stops (which it always has since we applied patch 10.1.3.3) this technique will pause until a user responds to pop-up ... So a better way (I think) is -
<target name="start" description="start oc4j server" depends="init">
<java classname="oracle.appserver.startupconsole.view.Runner">
<classpath refid="oc4j.console"/>
<sysproperty key="ORACLE_HOME" path="${oracle.home}"/>
<arg value="start"/>
</java>
</target>
<target name="stop" description="stop oc4j server" depends="init">
<echo message="We expect OC4J *NOT* to stop cleanly, so we will timeout after 3 minutes ..."/>
<java classname="oracle.appserver.startupconsole.view.Runner" fork="true" timeout="180000">
<classpath refid="oc4j.console"/>
<sysproperty key="ORACLE_HOME" path="${oracle.home}"/>
<arg value="stop"/>
</java>
</target>
<target name="restart" description="restart oc4j server">
<antcall target="stop"/>
<!-- wait for server to quieten down -->
<waitfor maxwait="2" maxwaitunit="minute">
<not><http url="http://${oc4j.http.hostname}:${oc4j.http.port}"/></not>
</waitfor>
<antcall target="start"/>
</target> -
How to start and stop Oracle Application Server from ANT
How to start and stop Oracle Application Server and Web application from ANT
Thanks in Advance.
ManiHi,
You can use: startManagedWebLogic.sh, it is in your domain directory and you have to execute it in this way
./startManagedWebLogic.sh managedServerName http://adminServerHost:adminServerPort
For instance, in my case I use:
unixserv01:/webportal/domains/appServerWeb/bin>startManagedWebLogic.sh managedServ01 http://pelma3w3per01.mesaperu.next:7001
You have to run it on the machine where the managed server was installed.
Best regards,

How to start and stop a progress-bar thread before/after the main thread
hi. I would appreciate any kind of help on my request.
I have this as my main() function
public static void main(String[] args)
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){
public void run(){
Options op = new Options();
OdessaClient oc = new OdessaClient(op);
oc.setVisible(true);
}Whenever I try to start a simple JFrame with an indeterminate progress bar on it just before the main function and stop it somewhere after I get a StackOverFlow error
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.StackOverflowError

at java.awt.Component.show(Component.java:1302)
at java.awt.Component.setVisible(Component.java:1253)
...and so on...How must I implement something like it?Not precisely that way, but just off the top of my head, you would have to have a handle to the proccess (server) in the first window, then have a monitor program that allows you take this handle and end it. I would make this monitor program be the gateway to starting and stopping your server. To run a .bat file you can use runtime.exec().

How to start and stop a queue in ECC??
Dear all,
I have a problem regarding the Start and Stop of queues in ECC. Whenever I change the data in ECC (for example extension of a material to a new distribution chain, or Creating a quotation which has to trigger a corresponding quotation in CRM), replication is not happening to CRM. On analysis of the outbound queue in ECC, we are finding corresponding ernties for the material / quotation. On dbl cliking an entry, we are able to see the queue in STOP status. When tried to reset status and activate, system throws a message saying GENERIC STOP SET.
1) How to overcome this problem?
2) How to START or STOP a queue (for Eg: R3AD*) in ECC?
Please respond.
Every point you share will fetch so many points / lot many smiles to you (No surprises.. I am plagerizing the famous quote on SDN)

How to start and stop video acquisition in a state machine
hello,
I'm a neuroscience student and here's what I'm trying to do: 1) trigger a GigE camera (200fps), 2) start video acquisition, 3) trigger a light that will stay on for x miliseconds, 4) trigger a valve that will blow an air puff, 5) stop the tone and the valve simultaneously and 5) stop the video acquisition 1second after 4). For that, my VI is a state machine, with a state for each trigger (ex, 1 state for trigger camera, 1 state for trigger light, ect) plus a state to "stop" and a state "time to wait". Everything was working except the video acquisition - the program would trigger the camera but only acquire one frame, because it wasn't running in a while loop and this is my first question: for a video acquisition is it always necessary to have a while loop?
I assumed the answer was yes, so I built a "consumer" loop for the camera. Putting a queue in the state "trigger camera" in the producer loop, I was then able to start the video acquisition but now the problem is to stop it in the right time. I have another queue in the "stop" state in the producer loop, but it isn't able to start the "stop" state in the consumer loop, I think that may be because the consumer loop gets "stuck" in the while loop.
I hope you can help me, the VI is attached. Thanks!
Solved!

Conditioning MS vi 2010.zip 68 KBHi Gak,
Thanks for the suggestions. I still didn't got it to work though. I moved the stop command to inside the while loop like you said but it didn't work. The problem seems to be in the communication between the producer/consumer loops. When I run the VI in highlight, the queue message "trigger camera" leaves the producer and arrives at the consumer loop in the appropriate time, starting the "trigger camera" state of the case structure. However, the message "stop" doesn't seem to be sent by the producer loop, so the consumer doesn't receive a signal to start the "stop" state of the case structure. Can you think of anything I should change in the producer loop so that the second state (stop) is added to the queue?
About the functional global, I read about it, it seems that either that or a local variable could work, but I don't quite know how to implement it in my state machine, since the stop of the first while loop isn't activated in the "stop" state but in the "shutdown" state. It works more or less like this: after 10 loops of triggering and stopping the camera, light and valve (so after acquiring 10 movies), it goes for shutdown. Can you show me what you had in mind with the functional variable?

How to play and stop flv files through NetStream in AIR Application
Hi,
In a folder I have 'n' number of flv file, which are DRM protected. when the user try to play those files for the first time through my AIR application, it will prompt for username and password and gets the license/voucher from the server and store it in AIR Runtime. so that from the next time onwords it won't prompt for username and password as because it already has license/voucher.
My problem is assume there are 500 files, such that for each file the user has to enter his credentials[username and password]. which is a stupid thing. I want to avoid this process by implementing this process internally/programetically. By playing/accessing each file through netstream from the folder and setDRMAuthenticationCredentials for that file and stop the stream. Here I am able to play each file but I am failed to stop it. I mean to say I will get the license for all the flv files internally[while loading my AIR application], such that user should not be interrupted for his credentials for each file.He should play as if he is accessing/playing a non-DRM protected file. I will be very thank full if any one help me out in this.
public function init():void {
connectStream();
getLicenseForAllFiles();
videoStream.addEventListener(DRMAuthenticateEvent.DRM_AUTHENTICATE, drmAuthenticateEventHandler);
ppt_videoStream.addEventListener(DRMAuthenticateEvent.DRM_AUTHENTICATE, ppt_drmAuthenticateEventHandler);

//the current folder object

for (var f = 0; f < files.length; f++) {

//it's a directory

NI PCI 6225: How to start and stop an acquisition using triggers
Hi,
Hi already spent two days reading the previous post on start/stop trigger and end up with just a complet breakdown....
I'm using a NI PCI 6225 for a project on brain activity.
I want to start the aquisition of 10 channels at 1Khz on a first trigger (i.e. portline 0) and stop it on a second trigger (i.e. portline 1). The duration of the recording should not exceed 5min.
Any help will really be apreciated as well as some explanations. I'm not an expert but I do can understand if I'm being explained...slowly. I hope this post will not contribute additionally to the/my confusion on this topic....
Thanks for your attention and help,
ODHi,
Unfortunately, it is not possible to stop the acquisition with a second trigger (just start the task). There are some approaches to what you need, but not exactly the same. Please take a look to the next example.
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/5028
I think the only way to perform what you need will be by software and with all the consideration about timing that you should already know.

How to start and stop a server
I am doing some sockets programming.
Now, when I want to get the TomCat 4 server running for instance, I would have to run the startup.bat or startup.sh file. To stop the server I run the shutdown.bat or shutdown.sh file.
Can I do the same thing in Java?
That is, in one window, I run a program: C:\>java myserver start
The server starts running and holds there.
In another window, I run another command: C:\>java myserver stop
and the server in the other window stops.
I am thinking the server would be running in a thread. When I shut it down, I close the thread just like in the Applet Clock example.
I've tried this but it doesn't work.
Can anyone please advise.
Thanks.
Anthony.Not precisely that way, but just off the top of my head, you would have to have a handle to the proccess (server) in the first window, then have a monitor program that allows you take this handle and end it.
