How to perform power spectra analysis in DIAdem

Dear all:
I am a beginner in DIAdem but I have to complete my PhD thesis that is about the
analysis of rat EEG in DIAdem. I have acquired 10G data of rat EEG. I prefer the
power spectra method. Would someone please tell me:
1. How to perform power spectra analysis of multichannel EEG(8 channels) in
DIAdem? I hope the unit of the vertical axis is microV^2, but not dB ,nor
10*log10(microV^2/Hz).
2. How to calculate the absolute power and the relative power of EEG at a certain
frequency band in DIAdem? Is it possible to do it in DIAdem?
Thank you very much
Jing

  • Limit testing on frequency/band power (octave analysis) data

    I have performed an octave analysis and displayed the result in a regular XY-graph. The frequency appears on the x-axis and these values are not linear (they appear to be logarithmic). On the y-axis there is band power expressed in dB. I would like to perform a test to see if the graph falls within a certain region of the graph area. I would like to define this region using a small number (i.e. much less than there are octave analysis points) of XY-value pairs and then have LabVIEW interpolate in between these XY-value pairs to come up with a well-defined region in the graph. How can I do this? I'm using LabVIEW 8.2.1 with the Sound and Vibration add-on. I'd greatly appreciate any hints.

    Of course.

  • Power BI analysis services connector - the remote server returned an error (403)

    Hi all, does any one have any suggestions what to try to identify the configuration problem I have?
    I have, a SSAS 2012 tabular instance with SP2, there is a database on the instance with a read role with everyone assigned permissions. 
    When configuring the Power BI analysis services connector, at the point where you enter Friendly Name, Description and Friendly error message, when you click next I receive the error "The remote server returned an error (403)." 
    I've tested connecting to the database from Excel on a desktop and connect fine.
    I don't use a "onmicrosoft" account so don't have that problem to deal with.
    We use Power BI Pro with our Office 365. As far as I can tell that part is working ok as I pass that stage of the configuration with a message saying connected to Power BI.
    The connector is installed on the same server as tabular services, its a Win2012 Standard server. The tabular instance is running a domain account that is the admin account for the instance (this is a dev environment) that account is what I've used in the
    connector configuration. It's also a local admin account. There is no gateway installed on the server.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks, Brian
    Brian Searle

    Brian-
    One other common issue I've seen is the UPN not quite matching. Log onto the SSAS server as the user who's logged into Power BI. Then open a command prompt and run:
    whoami /upn
    Hopefully the UPN it says will match your EffectiveUserName test and will match exactly how you're signing into the Power BI site.
    If that doesn't work, your best bet is to go to
    http://support.powerbi.com/ and click Contact Support and describe this situation and someone from the Power BI support team should get in touch with you to troubleshoot.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless A909g, CB023A, how to perform full-reset

    I own this printer since December 2009, during the first 15 months I had several problems/defects and also repairs and excange units. The problems continue on and in September 2011, in October 2011 and in November 2011 I got excange devices after repair attempts (one device was delivered without any function). The last device worked with one (?) (minor resp. accepted) problem until today resp. June 2014. ...this is the previous history ---> ---> I need sequence to perform full-reset on HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless A909g ---> Please send procedure/sequence how to perform a full-reset on this printer - not hard reset nor semi-reset: full-reset !!! Please send this information without unnecessary questions about my problems: My only problem is to own such printer!

    Hello AlexBW,
    I received your private message and I thank you for writing me back.
    One other step that I think may assist us would be to please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    Once you have the unit connected directly to a wall outlet, follow the instructions that  I provided in the private message.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
    Thank you once again for your time.  It has been a pleasure working with you.
    Click the “Kudos Thumbs Up" at the bottom of this post to say “Thanks” for helping!
    Please click “Accept as Solution ” if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others find the solution.

  • How to edit Power plans (SCM power plans)

    Hello!
    Like topic here https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=250101.0 (where it's left unanswered and with error link)
    I'm interested in, how to edit these power plans to get each time the same personalised power plan. I have noticed the EPS file but i can not edit it.
    Please help.
    Thank You

    Hi spam,
    Don't bother with custom or "personalized" power plans as long as the SCM is running because the SCM overrides them.
    The SCM uses the built-in power plans that come with Windows (balanced, high performance, power saver, etc.). They can be edited from Windows Power Options area. Use the "advanced" settings for full control.
    We didn't want our power settings to ever change, so we manually configured all of the built-in power plans that came with Windows. They are all the same now and, regardless which Eco mode is selected in the SCM, our power plan settings stay the same.
    Kind regards, David

  • How to perform calculations using column data in BI Publisher

    Hello guys
    I am very new to BIP, and recently I am learning to create new templates using XML files..
    I am trying to create a report that has Account Amount, Amount Net Amount, PM_Amount and a New field say "X"
    For Account Amount it is what it is, but for Net Amount it is "Account Amount/40%", for PM_Amount it is "Net Amount x (Account Amount/30)" and for field X it is "(Net Amount + PM_Amount)/column A" where column A is another data field in the XML file but it should not be included in the template report..
    Could anyone help me with how to perform such kind of calculations in BIP Template builder? In OBIEE, it is very easy that I can just use column formula, but in BIP I still haven't figure out the way yet..
    PLease advice
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply..
    I looked at the link you provided already, what I wanna know is how to exactly apply the expression in my calculation. In other words, I know that Column C = "Column A div Column B", but in BIP form property, how do I actually substitue "column A" with the actual column..
    I wish I could post the XML, but it is huge, it contains 6 data sets and more than 100 columns. I only need 15 columns on my template.
    On the form property of each measures, in the "advance tab", I see codes like <?accountamount?>. Now I wanna have a new column said "PM_Amt" which should be "(accountamount div %40) x column B". So I just randomly select another column said "payment". I rename it to "PM_AMT" and on its "advanced tab" it is still <?payment?>. So right there, if I wanna replace that code with a new one that does "(accountamount div %40) x column B" calculation, how would I do it? What would be the syntax including how to propertly refer to the right column field as part of the expression?
    And do I have to always use xdofx between <>? how would I know?
    Please advice if you understood what I am trying to say
    Much thanks

  • How to read the Variance Analysis report S_ALR_87013139,  Pdt cost by Order

    Hi,
    Could someone tell me how to read the variance analysis report, S_ALR_87013139 - Cumulative for product cost by order. The report has the following fields, Target (Debits),     Actual (Debits),     Scrap,     Var. Without Scrap,     Work in Process(WIP),     Control Costs.
    I am looking to find how the numbers add up.
    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks Sridhar,
    When I analyse the report S_ALR_87013139 - Cumulative , for a product for a period (with no scrap), I get the following
    Target (Deb) -   46,855.55
    Act (Deb) - 58,315.87
    Scrap - 0.00
    Var W/O- Scrap -  11,269
    WIP- 0
    Control Cost - 0
    Here Actual - Target is not equal to Variance. What could be the issue?
    Could you please tell me how SAP would update this report  with target & actual costs with respect to open production orders, carried over from previous periods.
    Thanks,
    Ram

  • Can I use a MacBook like a Mac Mini? How would I power it on?

    Is it possible to use a MacBook like a Mac Mini when I'm at home, with it plugged into a monitor? I've seen pictures of people using theirs when the MacBook is closed, but how would you power it on? If it's turned off, can it be powered on with the remote? And if not, how would I turn it on without opening it? I don't much fancy leaving it in sleep mode all the time.

    Basically, you have to use sleep mode, either
    with a USB keyboard and/or mouse
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86286
    or with bluetooth
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1308
    You can use the Energy Saver preferences to set up schedules for automated shutdown (at night), startup (in the morning), and sleep (when idle) settings.
    If it's powered off, just open the lid and power it up, then close the lid again, or get a laptop stand and use both the built-in display and the external display at the same time in extended desktop mode, if you have the desk space.

  • How to perform a classic Mac OS search in Tiger

    Disclaimer: Apple does not necessarily endorse any suggestions, solutions, or third-party software products that may be mentioned in the topic below. Apple encourages you to first seek a solution at Apple Support. The following links are provided as is, with no guarantee of the effectiveness or reliability of the information. Apple does not guarantee that these links will be maintained or functional at any given time. Use the information below at your own discretion.
    In an this post I will describe how to perform a classic Mac OS search and give example results. You may perform the search with or without the spotlight database. This search falls under the smart folder implementation introduced with Tiger. I have done all my testing with Mac OS 10.4.11. I assume this will work with any version of Tiger or Leopard.
    The results will be slightly different with a spotlight database on the partition and without a database on the partition. With a database, you will not see Unix hidden files. You may be able to use all of the spotlight special find features. I did not test much with the spotlight special fields. Without a database, using the special features nulls out the search and the "Search for" field seems to give the same result as using the name field.
    This search technique was obscured by all the hoopla over spotlight. Authors of Tiger books avoided mentioning the Classic search interface. When I looked in Leopard books I noticed some authors put back information on the Classic search interface.
    For testing I created these files
    For testing I created a test "z-find" folder on my Macintosh-HD, containing files and folders with various attributes, then copied it over to my Spotless flash drive. This means both searches searched for the same file names.
    I put these files on my Macintosh-HD and Spotless partitions.
    Here is the list of files:

    Perform the Classic Mac OS search with a Spotlight database.
    {color:red}By Classic Mac OS search I mean a search on the filename and the results shown in list format.{color} How do you get to this interface?
    *Click on the Desktop to access the Finder.*
    *Click on File then click on Find. (Command-F)*
    Pick what folder you wished to search. With Tiger you can click on Others... to select a folder. Click on the plus sign to select the folder you wish to search. Be sure the selected folder in the list is the only one checked. In the first example I picked: /Users/mac/Desktop/iMac/z-find/
    {color:purple}The "Search for" field on the first line is used for spotlight. Avoid using this box.{color}
    *Click on the double arrow to the right of the first option (Kind). Go down to the name field.*
    *Change the 2nd pop down field to Contains.*
    *You can now search for the contents of a filename.* I searched for name contains: bash-
    To see the Classic display format, click on the three line icon which is located on the upper left of the window (list view). There is a small refresh icon on the lower right of the window.

    bash-copy-invisible-attr    {folder}
    bash-folder__green    {folder and labeled with the Green attribute}
    ping_command-bash-copy.html
    You can create a smart folder to take you directly to the search panel. Just click on the Save icon to the right of the window near the top. For readers of books, you should look under smart folders.

    There are some downsides. Initially, the search will find both visible and invisible Mac OS files. However, the search seems to get confused between visible and invisible files when you select the visibility option. It seems to get the visible correct when you use visible but when you add invisible things get confused. Sometimes it will find invisible files and sometimes it won't. I used both the Unix invisible files and the Mac OS X visiblity attribute.
    In putting the same search in the upper right-hand-corner spotlight search and in the Search for field, I did not get the same results. The spotlight search returned a 182 items while the with Search for field returned 179 items. The Search for field seemed to miss items in the mail boxes. With the Search for search you could display spotlight results in the classic format.
    I did a successful search on my fat32 flash drive.
    Perform the Classic Mac OS search without the spotlight database.
    If you turn off spotlight indexing on a volume and delete the spotlight index, then Mac OS Tiger reverts to the prior Mac OS search facility. In the preferences for spotlight, you let searching continued on the partition.
    Here is what I did:
    I installed the spotless application.
    http://www.fixamac.net/software/spot/
    I use spotless to configure spotlight. Click on disabled indexing then click on delete index files.
    !http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3527/3239751839_c760c46628.jpg?v=0!
    Spotless creates the .Spotlight-V100 directory with the _IndexPolicy.plist and _rules.plist to prevent indexing on the partition.
    I performed the search for files containing "bash-" in the name field.
    !http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3430/3240587902_171d8d46c3.jpg?v=0!
    This is the result of the search without the Spotlight databases:
    bash-backup-inside-bash-copy.html
    bash-backup.html
    bash-batChmod.html
    bash-battery_yellow_4k.html    {labeled with the Yellow attribute}
    bash-copy    {folder}
    bash-folder__green    {folder and labeled with the Green attribute}
    ping_command-bash-copy.html
    Limitations:
    Does not search in Unix hidden folders. That is folders beginning with a period (.) .
    Sometimes will find files beginning with a period (.).
    Does not find Mac OS invisible files.
    Using the special features nulls out the search.
    The Search for field seems to give the same result as using the name field.

    I have a new SSD drive and need to either migrate my old HD data, including the Windows 8.1 OS or do a a clean install.  I have obtained the ISO, prepared the boot for the flashdrive and downloaded the install software.  It asks for the product key.   I used the suggested BIOS reader and obtained "a" product key off the BIOS and used that it but (as above) it does not recognize the image.
    How id I get my single Windows license onto my new SSD HD?  Reload, clean install, ???
    How do I get the proper product key or confirm it is correct? 
    It is a new system with little data that I need to copy. I just want the operating system.  I have the driver disc that came with it.

  • How to Perform a "Clean Install" - Offline installer link not working...

    The thread containing - "How to Perform a Clean Install of Flash Player in Mac OS X" -  was an answer given by Mike M. several times in this forum. I attempted to access the "offline installer" link that was offered, but it does not seem to be working. Does anyone have an updated link to a functional offline installer that I can use to finally download Flash Player for Mac OS X v. 10.9.5?
    I receive an error message stating "Error: Unable to proceed with the installation."
    Many of the photography and game websites I use (almost all, actually) FP, and I would really love to get back to my daily routine soon!
    Best Regards,
    Mel R.

    Hi Mel,
    The correct link is posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac page, in the 'Still having problems section'. The download links recently changed and it appears the FAQ was not updated.  I have updated the with the help page URL as it's less likely that this link will change, and if it does, a re-direct to the new location would be implemented.

  • How much performance can I get from my macbook?

    It's older then 2,5 years but still quite good for my needs. It has a 2.16 GHz Core 2 Duo and I never use all the CPU, it has 2GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM and I use it all. I am not using all the 120 GB of 5400 rpm HDD but I use it often and I feel how much it is slow. Intel GMA950 is slow also, but it seems to be enough for me and is able to manage my external LCD at 1920x1200 resolution.
    So I am thinking about two possible ways to have more performance:
    1. get a new macbook pro of 13" with 4GB RAM, newer disk (may be faster);
    2. upgrade my RAM, my Disk and may be my OS.
    I know that I can use only 3.3 GB of RAM if I place 2 x 2GB 667MHz so-dimms: one more GB free could make difference for me.
    About the disk, I know that my SATA is limited to 1.5 Gigabits but, using AJA System Test, I see that my internal drive is able to read and write about 29 MB/s, that seems to be even slower of my external 7200 drive that is using a Firewire 400 connection (39 MB/s).
    It seems to me that newer HDDs on market, eg. Seagate Momentus.4 5400 rpm, are able to give much better transfer rate. My SATA should be able to manage transfer rates till 180MB/s so SATA II HDD should not suffer of it. Is it right?
    Finally I could upgrade to Snow Leopard that should be a little bit faster then Leopard and with a completely new better finder.
    So my questions are:
    1. current 5400 HDD, like seagate Momentus.4, are really double or triple faster then my 2 years old hitachi? Even on my SATA controller?
    2. 667 MHz RAM compared to the new 1066MHz could be a bottleneck even at 3.3 GB?
    3. if I buy a new macbook pro, 2.53 GHz, 4GB RAM, 250GB HDD, how much performance difference will I notice between this new machine and mine with upgraded RAM, HDD & Os?
    It's a difference of about 1.280$ (1.499$ - 220$), so I would be really pleased to listen what you think and know about this kind of upgrade.
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    Fabio.

    Ok, I'll chime in with an opinion at least.
    Wait on the new book. Do a $90 ram/$29 OS upgrade and give up on spending money on a HDD.
    Ive been looking at upgrades to speed up my laptop till I can afford a new one and have decided to wait 12months till SSD prices drop to $1.75-$2.50/GB. I think I will windup with a faster computer than anything that will come out for another 12 more months. I love getting the latest and greatest, but since I wont be able to afford a whole new computer next year I will be happy with a much faster book.
    I am using 65% of my upgraded ram(4/3.3whatever), never all of my cpu and only 35% of my drive space. Also happy with my external LCD monitor.
    If this http://www.amazon.com/Intel-160GB-Mainstream-Retail-SSDSA2MH160G2R5/dp/B002IJA1E Q/ref=sr12?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1262409156&sr=8-2 hits $360 it will be a no brainer for me. The 'new computer' option will be right out the window.

  • How do you "power search"on the new  itunes?

    How does one power search on the new itunes? Is it still possible?

    In addition, since that search window is part of the iTunes' Main Page, I have to wait for that page to load before I can do my search. Before, I could click on the Power Search link, and it would abandon the load and bring me to the Power Search page. Now, since the Main Page takes so long to load, I have to wait for that to finish before I can search.
    In other words, I have to wait for iTunes to show me what it wants me to buy, before I can tell it what I want to buy.
    Kinda like going into a record store and getting a saleman who tries to sell me the latest hits before he will listen to what it is I came in to buy. The attitude is completely wrong.

  • How much performance do I gain by enable MAT

    Hi
    I must try to ask you guys before am try to enable MAT
    I have never entered the bios before so am a little scared that I will f-up the system.
    Do anybody here at this forum with similar memory and componemts have tryed to this MAT function.
    Must it be "Turbo" or "Ultra turbo" to activate MAT?
    How much performance do I gain by this.....do I notice it in games....Battlefield 1942 for an example..or?
    If the system do not like it...what happens, shutdown or? unstable?
    Please give some advice.
    Mr Lithesteel

    MAT will give you at least a 5% increase in memory bandwidth when set to turbo mode regardless of the brand of memory you have. I own a pair of generic value ram and i see an increase of around 5 to 10 percent memory bandwidth when turbo mode is on, however my sytem fails to boot when MAT is set to ultra turbo, try to mess with the bios so you could figure out the best configuration of your system (you could measure memory bandwidth with sisoft sandra http://www.sisoftware.co.uk/), By the way your system is prepped up for hyperthreading, you own an 865pe which means your board is ready for hyperthreading, now unless you own the first generation of pentium4 procs which does not support ht, you are all set to run with hyperthreading, it would be nice if you upgrade to win xp pro or at least win2k so that you would be able to maximize your system's potential, Win XP home edition  does not support multi-threading so youre loosing a lot of performance with it. Hope i helped you with your question.
