How to generate a delayed retriggerable pulse using only one counter with PXI 6070E card

Hi
I have a problem in generating a retriggerable delayed pulse with a single counter(triggered through a signal at gate) using PXI 6070E card. VI was developed in NI LabVIEW traditional DAQ Ver.7.1. I have used the "delayed pulse generator config" VI and a "Start counter" & "Stop counter" VIs for the purpose. But there is no output seen at the out terminal of counter. So I introduced a "wait" VI and set it to 1 sec. Now the pulse output appears but some pulses are missing mometarily after every 1 sec interval. (any solution for this)
I have gone through a few similar requests in the forum but they suggest either to use two counters or to generate a finite pulse train which does'nt fit my application. Moreover PXI 6070E has only 2 counter timers. I am already using one counter to measure the frequency of a pulse train(signal 1). The application requires to generate a delayed retriggerable pulse for every pulse in signal 1. So I have only one counter left.
Can I measure the frequency of signal 1 by analog means.? so that I can use two counters for pulse generation. (Signal 1 is a TTL signal).
Request some help.
Thanks in Advance
Regards

A finite pulse train (N_Pulses >= 2) does require the use of 2 counters on most of our older hardware including your 6070E.  If you're just talking about generating a single retriggerable pulse, you would only need one counter.
Here's an example in Traditional DAQ that shows you how to set a retriggerable pulse generation (it also allows you to adjust the characteristics of the pulse on-the-fly).
If you're writing a new program, you might consider switching to DAQmx as it supports NI's latest hardware and recent OSes should you ever need to upgrade.  Traditional NI DAQ is no longer in active development.  Here's an example of how to implement a retriggerable pulse generation in DAQmx.  You should take note that you can't use the two drivers to simultaneously talk to the same piece of hardware, although you should be able to go back and forth by resetting the Traditional DAQ driver before switching to DAQmx.

  • How do I program a NI 6602 card to send trigger pulses, one at each output port, triggered by an input trigger signal, using only one counter for each output port?

    Hello,
    I have managed to program a NI 6602 card in LabView to send pulses on three different output ports, one pulse on each output port (with individually chosen delays) for each input trigger pulse coming on a separate input port. It is the DAQmx Create Channel (CO-Pulse Generation-Time)-VI that I have used for this, see attached code. However, this VI controls both pulse delay and pulse width, and therefore uses two counters for each output port (although you only specify one counter in the VI input signals), as I understand.
    In my application though, I only need to have the delay chosen, the pulse width can be arbitrarily short, and thus I should only need one counter for each output port. How do I accomplish to program this in LabView?

    Configure Side Camera Flash 1 Triggering.vi ‏47 KB

    Well you're welcome to do that--it will work just fine as long as you are configuring a start trigger.
    <rant>
    However, personally I really don't like putting multiple counter outputs in the same task.  I have seen so many people assume that the counter outputs would be synchronized due to having them in the same task when this is not the case (you need to configure a start trigger in order to synchronize the counter outputs even if they are in the same task).  This is the only case I can think of where multiple channels in a DAQmx task are not automatically synchronized.
    As an example:
    Running this on my PCIe X Series gives a measured 2 edge separation of 1 ms + {7.78 us - 10.11 us}.  This would likely be much worse on a bus with more latency (e.g. USB).
    The resulting output is close enough to what you might expect that it might go unnoticed, but really these counter outputs are not synchronized and it would be easy to glance at the code and not even think twice about it.  For the small amount of extra work on my end to create a separate task for each counter, it really clears up some ambiguity about what the counters are actually doing.  For me it's worth it.
    So again, for your case there really isn't a problem with having the counters in the same task since you are using an external start trigger anyway.  I have just gotten in the habit of avoiding doing this.

  • Ecommerce site - how do I create several product pages using only one table of data?

    Hi
    Im designing an ecommerce clothing site for my assignment using an access database.
    When I create the Data Set it takes all the information from my Acess table "Products" , creating one huge list of products on a single web page.
    However, i would like to have the product data split across many web pages depending on there specific Category given [i.e. T-shirts, Jumpers, Trousers, Bags, Acessories].
    Does anybody know how to do this? I think it involves setting certain Parameters, or writing a SQL statement in Dataset.

  • Using one counter with FiniteSamps and another with ContSamps

    I am trying to use 2 counters on the USB-6229 (or USB-6259), where one counter is set up for FiniteSamps and another for ContSamps. I have the following MeasurementStudio code:
    ErrChk DAQmxCreateCOPulseChanTicks(hCnt0, "Dev1/ctr0", "", "20MHzTimebase", DAQmx_Val_Low, 0, 400, 400);
    ErrChk DAQmxCfgImplicitTiming(hCnt0, DAQmx_Val_FiniteSamps, 100);
    ErrChk DAQmxStartTask(hCnt0);
    ErrChk DAQmxCreateCOPulseChanTicks(hCnt1, "Dev1/ctr1", "", "20MHzTimebase", DAQmx_Val_Low, 0, 400, 400);
    ErrChk DAQmxCfgImplicitTiming(hCnt1, DAQmx_Val_ContSamps, 2);
    ErrChk DAQmxStartTask(hCnt1);
    When I run it, I get a run-error 50103 "The specified resource is reserved". If I change the FiniteSamps to ContSamps on the first counter, everything works fine.
    If I use only one counter with FiniteSamps, everything also works fine.
    Is this a bug in DAQmx or the dual counter use on M-series devices is limited to ContSamps?
    Vic
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi Vic,
    This is actually expected on an M Series device.  Here's a timing diagram from the M Series User Manual that might make this a bit more clear:
    The device actually uses one counter to gate the other so the result is a finite pulse generation.  If you can provide the gate from another source, you may configure a continuous pulse generation on both counters and gate them (DAQmx calls this a "Pause Trigger") from this external signal. 
    You might also want to look into using Correlated Digital I/O to generate multiple finite pulses (up to 32 lines on your 6229 and 6259).  You could use one of the counters to generate a timebase for the digital lines, and build the waveform accordingly.
    One thing to note is that our new X Series boards can generate a finite pulse generation on a "single" counter (there is actually a paired internal counter that allows for this).  There are four user-accessible counters on X Series devices, meaning you could generate four finite pulse trains.

  • How to query on a single row form using only one page

    Hi APEX experts, I am just a beginner in apex and I face several problems on development. Despite that the forum helps me a lot and your answers to other people are valuable , I have stacked into something. Could you please someone tell me : if there is a way to define a single row form page based on table in which I could query and update without using a tabular page (to call the single row form). I want only to use only one page. Does APEX has this functionality? Thank you very much?

    I haven't tried it, but I am going to guess that yes it's possible (or if I were going to do this, this is what I'd try and I suspect it will work).
    If you take a moment and step back and look at what the wizard does when building a "form on a table with report", all it does is build two pages with page 1 (report overview with drill-down Edit button or link usually) calling page 2 (form) and setting the PK field on the page 2 form with an automated row fetch process and built-in DML processes. It's not that hard.
    Page 2 really doesn't care what the calling page was in order to query a single row; it just cares that ANY caller sets the primary key value for the ARF process to fetch a row. So I would just make page 2 call itself. This is what I'd do (and you might have to fine-tune little things that I might not have forseen but I think this will work).
    For the sake of example, let's say our table is PARTS and in it is a PART_ID, PART_NUMBER, PART_DESCRIPTION, PART_COST, etc. Assume PART_ID is the primary key and sequentially assigned by the DB in a trigger and is functionally meaningless to the user and is for PK purposes only. Let's assume PART_NUMBER is a unique key (although not the PK) by which the user will "know" a unique row (since the PK of PART_ID is more internal and not meaningful to the user). Assume PART_DESCRIPTION, PART_COST, etc. are just attributes.
    1. Use the wizard and build a "form on a table with report". This is just to get the handy dandy ARF process and DML processes, validations, etc. all generated for you. Let's assume the report page is Page 1 and the form is Page 2.
    2. When done, delete the report page entirely (so delete page 1).
    3. Edit the form page (page 2) and change any branch references from the nonexistent page 1 to now be page 2.
    Now here's the part where something has to set the internal P2_PART_ID field when page 2 is run. So why not set it from itself from something the user will uniquely enter?
    4. Create a P2_PART_NUMBER_FETCH item (text item is fine or if you want a LOV or whatever that's good too....whatever works. For clarity, you might even want to create a separate "search" or "query" region separate and above your existing form region to set this field apart visually so users know it's a search field. Source for this field should be "only when current value in session state is null".
    5. Created some sort of "GO" button to go along with the P2_PART_NUMBER_FETCH field.
    6. Make sure none of your existing post-submit processes fire when GO is pressed (edit all of the computations and validations and processes and ensure that they have conditions such that they do not fire when the submit value is "GO", so like a PL/SQL expression and set to v('REQUEST')<> 'GO').
    7. Add a new validation to your page that only fires when GO is pressed. Have it validate only when GO is pressed. Have it validate that P2_PART_NUMBER_FETCH is not null.
    8. Add a new PL/SQL process to your post-submit processing that only fires when GO is pressed. Have it look up to the database based on P2_PART_NUMBER_FETCH and get the PART_ID that corresponds to the part number the user entered and set the part number, something like this (even better for style and reusability if you embed this in a DB package function and call it):
    SELECT part_id
    INTO :P2_PART_ID
    FROM PARTS
    WHERE PART_NUMBER = :P2_PART_NUMBER_FETCH;
    9. Not sure if the branches that were generated will suffice for this (might need to add a new one...review what you have and see) but the bottom line is that the page should branch to itself (page 2) and not clear the cache.
    10. When the page repaints, since :P2_PART_ID is now populated in session state (again, page 2 should not care how it got populated...only should care that it did get populated by anything (including itself)), the automated row fetch (ARF) should fire and query up the row from the database for editing.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
    For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

  • How do you use only one plugin in Logic for multiple guitar tracks? I want to only use one instance of Pod Farm and run all my guitar tracks through that one instance.

    I want to be able to use only one instance of Pod Farm for my guitars, and have all of my guitar tracks run through it while I'm recording.

    What he said. Or here is a similar approach with a picture.
    1. Press the SEND button on every stereo (or mono) guitar track you want to send through the effect. Then select a free bus.
    2. Make sure you turn up the amount of send (in db). Holding alt while leftclicking on this circle sets the send level to 0 db wich is good.
    3. Open the mixer (Cmd+2). Please see that I here have turned the output off from the stereo guitar track. That way the only output will be the BUS, in your case the AmpTrack bus where all your guitars will pass through. If you want both the original guitar sound AND the Ampfarm effect then just set all outputs on your guitar tracks to Stereo Out, like the AmpF Bus track is set in my picture.
    4. Insert your AmpFarm plugin here. I don´t have that plug so I inserted Waves Renes Axe for demo purpose.
    Adjust the volume/effect of every guitartrack by turning the circle input shown as 2. in my picture.
    I now see that you mentioned Pod Farm, not AmpFarm. But I guess it´s the same trick.
    Have fun.

  • Multiple Qaawses but use only one Qaaws at a time

    Hi,
    In Dashboard , I have two Qaawses (Qaaws1 and Qaaws2). When I am trying to generate SWF file both the qaawses are running. My requirement is, in Excel file I will set a flag value in one cell (0/1).
    If the cell value is '0' then the Dashboard should use only Qaaws1.
    If the cell value is '1' then the Dashboard should use only Qaaws2.
    In essence my requirement is, even though multiple Qaawses are present in Dashboard, the Dashboard should be able to use only one Qaaws at a time based on my requirement (i.e., based on flag bit value 0/1).
    Can any one suggest,  solution for this?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    M. N. Kishore Babu.

    Hi David,
    Thank you very much for the response and sorry for the delay.
    Our actual scenario is a s follows:
    We pass customer id and shipper Group Id as an input parameters to the flash variables from front end (through Java program). And these two values will written in Excel cells (let say Customer id in A1, and Shipper Group Id in B1)
    Now there are two Qaawses, Qaaws1 and Qaaws2 in the xlf in addition to flash variables.
    Qaaws 1 query is as follows :
    select * from shp_details where customer id = A1
    Qaaws 2 query is as follows :
    select * from shp_details where customer id = A1 and ShipperGroup_id = B1
    On front end we have two drop downs, Dropdown1  is for customer id and Dropdown2 is for Shipper Group Id.
    When we select an item in Dropdown1, from front end we pass only Customer Id and when we select an item in Dropdown2, we pass both Customer Id and Shipper Group Id.
    Our requirement is,
    When we select Dropdown1 (we are passing only customer id), we expect only Qaaws1 to be executed.
    When we select Dropdown2 (we are passing  both customer id and shipper Group Id), we expect only Qaaws2 to be executed.
    Please let me know, if I need to provide any further clarification.
    Thanks & Regards,
    M. N. Kishore Babu.

  • How do I change my Apple ID on only one device?

    How do I change my Apple ID on only one device? I inherited my husband's iPhone 5. He cleared it but I set it up with same Apple ID so we could share same iTunes account. However, I realised that there are inconveniences such as not being able to Facetime each other. In addition, his iTunes account is UK-based and we'd like to also have a New Zealand iTunes account for various reasons.

    Go to settings/icloud and sign out. Then sign in by creating a new Apple ID. Do the same in Settings for Messages, FaceTime and iTunes & App Store. Next, link your Apple IDs using Family Sharing so you can still share music and apps. Family Sharing - Apple Support
