How to get and display voltage value in Labview?

First a little background:
I am a college student doing an internship at a university and my project for the summer involves load cells. I am planning to use LabVIEW as both a multimeter and a calculator that would convert the voltage given off by the load cell into the force exerted on the load cell.
Now here comes the situation:
I have gotten everything hooked up and the load cell is working fine when using a standard multimeter. The data acquisition card is also working fine (The dac is the Measurement Computing USB-2416) as it was reading the same voltages as the multimeter. So all that was left is to put a numerical indicator and use some block code to send the voltage amounts to the indicator.
But the problem is: I simply do not know how to make the proper coding and the Internet is of no help to me on this subject.
My first thought is to do something using AIn() like the first attached picture show, but that resulted in an error stating:
"This function can not be used with this board."
Which is odd, for I am sure this is the right function to get analog readings from the dac.
Then I do something like the second picture, which does not produce an error, but it does produce a value of 255, which is obviously not correct.
At that point, I went on the Internet to get some answers, only to return with no answers at all.
And now, I turn to you guys to help me, for I have a single big question:
Which blocks/code should I use to obtain a voltage from a dac like the Measurement Computing USB 2416 I am using?
Summary of details:
The DAC I am using is the Measurement Computing USB-2416
The DAC is loaded with the latest drivers and Instacal was used as well
The LabVIEW I am using is LabVIEW 2012 version 12, 32 bit.
I got ULx and Universal Library for LabVIEW installed.
The operating system is Windows 7 working on a desktop that is a few years obsolete.
With that being said, can you guys help me out, please?

If you installed the entire Measurement Computing MCC-DAQ CD, you will have installed the ULx for NI LabVIEW. It comes with a bunch of examples. It makes sense to open those examples, and use them as the starting point.
Take a look at the Quick Start for the ULx for LabVIEW - http://www.mccdaq.com/pdfs/manuals/QS%20ULx%20for%20NI%20LabVIEW.pdf
Also, the more comprehensive help: http://www.mccdaq.com/pdfs/manuals/lvulx.zip
As you can see, there are quite a few examples.

How to get and disply dynamic values on the fly and display in applet

hello all ,
i have a problem in refreshing a applet.
i have a scrolling applet which will get the share values from the database and display in a scrolling applet in the browser . i am getting the values and displaying it.
but the problem is , if i enter a new record in the database, until and unless i press refresh button of the browser, i am not getting the new values . please help me if anybody having the idea. please mail me to [email protected]
thank you all.

You want a database update to trigger an applet refresh? Can't be done.
However, you can have the applet periodically re-query the database and update its display with the information it retrieves. Just kick off a Thread that sleeps for a bit, wakes up, queries the db, updates the display, and goes back to sleep.

How to retreive and display return value from BAPI

Hello,
I am using SUP to create a sales order application. In my MBO I have a create operation which calls a BAPI to create a sales order. How can I retrieve the return value (saled doc number) and display it on a screen and display it as an Alert of BB application.
Regards
Nidhideep Bhandari

Hi David Brandow,
I have tried your solution where I just created a MBO for my 'operation' and I'm using sync parameters to execute the RFC.
The problem I'm facing is, for example, if I create a record it gets saved in the MBO table and the record successfully gets created in SAP as well after a sync. But when I create another record and sync, the previously saved record in MBO table also gets executed so I'm getting duplicate entries in SAP.
Have you or anyone faced this problem?
Any response is appreciated. Please let me know if I'm not clear, I realized its a complicated scenario.
Thanks,
Sandeep

In Workflow, How to get and set table values at runtime.

Hi All,
I m having a doubt,
here in my workflow, i have used a object where in i have made a 'Z' method which is suppose to populate a table container.
Actually after using std SOFC-COMPOSE activity my table which has 4 user id's contains only 1 user id who has runt that activity.
So in order to get all 4 user's back in the container i made a 'Z' method, which will populate the values back in tht user_id's table.
But it is not doing so.
Can you please help me as to how to do it?
I m sending u the code that i hav written in the method.
There are 2 codes i tried.
first:
BEGIN_METHOD ZPOPULATE CHANGING CONTAINER.
data : User_Release type table of zfitlevel-zuid,
       wa_user_release type zfitlevel-zuid.
data: User type table of zfitlevel-zuid.
swc_get_table container 'User_Release' User_Release.
wa_user_release = 'USNOSIJOH'.
append wa_user_release to User_Release.
wa_user_release = 'USNOSOSAT'.
append wa_user_release to User_Release.
wa_user_release = 'USNOANMER'.
append wa_user_release to User_Release.
swc_set_table container 'User_Release' User_Release.
END_METHOD.
and second : Suppose User is the tabel that has correct values at run-time.
BEGIN_METHOD ZPOPULATE CHANGING CONTAINER.
data : User_Release type table of zfitlevel-zuid,
       wa_user_release type zfitlevel-zuid.
data: User type table of ZUSRID.
swc_get_table container 'User' User.
swc_get_table container 'User_Release' User_Release.
User_Release[] = User[].
swc_set_table container 'User_Release' User_Release.
END_METHOD.
Please let me know if anyone can solve my doubt asap.
Thanks & Regards,
Alpa

Hi
Thanks for the reply.
But here in my case, there is a problem.
The table container in Workflow wil hav dynamic entries.
It will hav to pick it from other dynamic container elements (all single line) and append them in this container table.
For eg:
at runtime:
User1 = 'USABC'
User_table = 'USABC'
                   'USLMN'
                   'USPQR'
                   'USXYZ'
after one of these user execute a compose mail activity of SOFM-COMPOSE,
the User_table is left with only one user id who has executed the activity compose.
suppose USABC executes it so after that the conatiner values are:
User1 = 'USABC'
User_table = 'USABC'
Now i want that this table container shud hav all 4 values even after that activity for other purpose.
So how can i achieve that?
Thanks & Regards,
Alpa

How to get and display only some items out of an xml source

hi everybody,<br /><br />i have a designer-pdf based on a xsd. from within this pdf i call a second one and pass global variables to it. i want to use these vars to get specifics items out of an xml source. example:<br /><br />say that my xml is build like this:<br /><br /><form(min1-max1)><br /> <subform(min1-max unbounded)/><br /> <subform(min1-max unbounded)/><br /> <subform(min1-max unbounded)/><br /> <subform(min1-max unbounded)/><br /> <subform(min1-max unbounded)/><br /></form><br /><br />and i want just to pic up the subform element with index '2'. is there a way to do that?<br /><br />thanks,<br /><br />valerio

If you've got a chunk of XML in a string, you can read from it using XPath notation. Here's an example. Hope it helps:
var strXML = "JaredLangdonFredFlintstone";
var oXML = XMLData.parse(strXML, false);
var oFirstLName = XMLData.applyXPath(oXML,"//MyRoot/Person[1]/LName");
var oSecondLName = XMLData.applyXPath(oXML,"//MyRoot/Person[2]/LName");
xfa.host.messageBox("First LName is: " + oFirstLName.value + "\nSecond LName is: " + oSecondLName.value);

How to get and display image file through servlet

If I've got a jpg file on the server..
How can I use servlet to return that image via the following calling method
/displayfile?filename=image.jpg
the image.jpg in the server will return
I know that I need to set the content type to image/jpeg
after that, how can I return the image file to browser?

- Get the "file" Parameter from the URL QueryString
- check if the File specified exists on your filesystem
- read in the jpg from the file (best would be binary)
- set the right Mime Type (as you already wrote)
- write the filecontent to the ServletOutput as you would do with any other content
- that's it.

Lenfinkel

Hi LenFinkel,
May I know what is purpose of this requirement, as olaf said,you may parse the T-SQL code (or the execution plan), which is not that easy.
I have noticed that the condition values in your Stored Procedure(SP) are hard coded and among them there is a date values, I believe some day you may have to alter the SP when the date expires. So why not declare 3 parameters of the SP instead hard coding?
For multiple values paramter you can use a
table-valued parameter. Then there's no problem getting the values.
If you could elaborate your purpose, we may help to find better workaround.

How to acces and display datas storaged in cache for a SUP 2.0 workflow?

HI to all.
I have an application with a item menu which obtains data thought a online request. the result is shown is a listview.
My problem is when my BlackBerry has no conection ( offline scenario). When I select the menu item, I obtain an error.
How to acces and display datas storaged in cache for my MBO? I have read that I can use getMessageValueCollection in custom.js to access to my datas but once I get the datas, How can associate those datas to a Listview like a online request?? Do i have to develop my own screen in html or how?
Thanks.

I'm not entirely clear on what you mean by "cache" in this context. I'm going to assume that what you are really referring to is the contents of the workflow message, so correct me if I'm wrong. There is, in later releases, the ability to set an device-side request cache time so that if you issue an online request it'll store the results in an on-device cache and if you subsequently reissue the same online request with the same parameter values within that timeout period it'll get the data from the cache rather than going to the server, but my gut instinct is that this is not what you are referring to.
To access the data in the workflow message, you are correct, you would call getMessageValueCollection(). It will return an object hierarchy with objects defined in WorkflowMessage.js. Note that if your online request fails, the data won't magically appear in your workflow message.
To use the data in the workflow message to update a listview, feel free to examine the code in the listview widgets and in API.js. You can also create a custom listview as follows:
function customBeforeNavigateForward(screenKey, destScreenKey) {
     // In this example, we only want to replace the listview on the "My Approvals" screen
     if (destScreenKey == 'My_Approvals'){
          // First, we get the MessageValueCollection that we are currently operating on
          var message = getCurrentMessageValueCollection();
          // Next, we'll get the list MessageValue from that MessageValueCollection
          var itemList = message.getData("LeaveApprovalItem3");
          // Because its a list, the Value of the MessageValue will be an array
          var items = itemList.getValue();
          // Figure out how many items are in the list
          var numOfItems = items.length;
          // Iterate through the results and build our list
          var i = 0;
          var htmlOutput = '<div><ul data-role="listview" data-theme="k" data-filter="true">';
          var firstChar = '';
          while ( i < numOfItems ){
               // Get the current item. This will be a MessageValueCollection.
               var currItem= items<i>;
               // Get the properties of the current item.
               var owner = currItem.getData("LeaveApprovalItem_owner_attribKey").getValue();
               var type = currItem.getData("LeaveApprovalItem_itemType_attribKey").getValue();
               var status = currItem.getData("LeaveApprovalItem_itemStatus_attribKey").getValue();
               var startDate = currItem.getData("LeaveApprovalItem_startDate_attribKey").getValue();
               var endDate = currItem.getData("LeaveApprovalItem_endDate_attribKey").getValue();
               // Format the data in a specific presentation
               var formatStartDate = Date.parse(startDate).toString('MMM/d/yyyy');
               var formatEndDate = Date.parse(endDate).toString('MMM/d/yyyy');
               // Decide which thumbnail image to use
               var imageToUse = ''
                    if (status == 'Pending'){
                         imageToUse = 'pending.png';

                    else {

               // Add a new line to the listview for this item
               htmlOutput += '<li><a id ="' + currItem.getKey() + '" class="listClick">';

How to get zclass attribute's value inside "Execute_default" method

Hi all,
I am displaying a link in UD step under "Objects & Attachmnents".I am using zclass. I created a attribute in zclass and i am creating a instance (background task) before this UD step and i will be setting a attribute of the zclass inside this create instance method.
My problem is, if i click the link, this method "BI_OBJECT~EXECUTE_DEFAULT_METHOD" is getting executed but i am not able to get the attribute value inside this method, eventhough i am setting the attribute value before the UD step.
Pls let me know, how to get the attribute's value inside "Execute_default" method, as i need to process further using this attribute.
P.S: I tried with both static & instance attribute. I can achieve the same using ZBO but my client needs to use only class.

Edited by: S Vinoth on Jan 29, 2010 7:23 AM

Lei,
If you are concerned only about a couple of attributes, then you can manage with a separate copy of the data. But if the data is in bulk, better leave it to pl/sql side of validation.

I am trying to build a basic TCL skeleton script that reads a remote SNMP OID and displays the value on the screen.

I am trying to build a basic TCL skeleton script that reads a remote SNMP OID and displays the value on the screen.
I don't want it to be an EEM Event, I just want to run it from the (tcl)# prompt.
So I guess I'm asking if you can use cli_exec and other commands in the "namespace import ::cisco::eem::*" in a normal non-EEM script - can I do that?
This is the error I get:

If you don't want an EEM policy, then don't use any of the EEM constructs. Instead, all you need is this:
set output [exec "snmp get v2c 192.168.1.100 public timeout 1 oid 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0"]puts $output

How to get Document Set property values in a SharePoint library in to a CSV file using Powershell

Hi,
How to get Document Set property values in a SharePoint library into a CSV file using Powershell?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
AA.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to you want to get document set property value in a SharePoint library and then export into a CSV file using PowerShell.
I suggest you can get the document sets properties like the PowerShell Command below:
[system.reflection.assembly]::loadwithpartialname("microsoft.sharepoint")
$siteurl="http://sp2013sps/sites/test"
$listname="Documents"
$mysite=new-object microsoft.sharepoint.spsite($siteurl)
$myweb=$mysite.openweb()
$list=$myweb.lists[$listname]
foreach($item in $list.items)
if($item.contenttype.name -eq "Document Set")
if($item.folder.itemcount -eq 0)
write-host $item.title
Then you can use Export-Csv PowerShell Command to export to a CSV file.
