How to synchronize the system time/date of a PXI controller with a GPS or time server?

Using a PXI system with a NI-PXI 8196 controller and LabVIEW RTOS, I am searching for a solution to set or reset the on board timeclock of the controller trough a external signal like a GPS or a time server (ntp).
Do an easy way exist to do this?
Any response will be greatly appreciated.

How to synchronize the FieldPoint time with my computer time?

When I using MAX to read the values from my FieldPoint cFP-1804 module, there is and timestamp generated for every measurement, but it does not match my PC's system time. How to synchronize the FieldPoint time with my windows PC?
I found a thread on the forum regarding this problem (http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/C4E56AD6450FC5FD86256DFF0007FF01), it ask me to select the Time Zone on the System Setting tab, but I didn't find any System Setting tab and Time Zone setting in my MAX screen. (MAX version4.4)
I'm using the cFP-1804 without embedded CPU module, I'm using asp.net, measurement studio to link with the cFP-1804, not by using Labview. Does cFP-1804 have a Time Server function? Please tell me how to match the FieldPoint time with my PC.
Thanks

Hi Presario2100,
In order to obtain an updated timestamp with each FieldPoint Read, you should
use a Flat Sequence structure. In the same frame as the
FieldPoint Read, use a Get Date/Time In
Seconds node.
The program obtains a fresh Timestamp each time the FieldPoint Read VI is
called.
I hope this helps.

How to set the system time in the program

Hi All,
How do we update the system time inside java programme.

AFAIK there is no easy (pure java) way: either you exec something (depending on your paltform) or use native code. Appropriate privileges will be necessary.

Please provide an example of how to display the system time in CNiNumEdit.

I need to display elapsed time in a numeric edit control. The value must be a double. Using MFC, please show me an example that displays the system time in a CNiNumEdit control.

The trick is to set the FormatString of the num edit control to a format that displays dates/times and to use the COleDateTime class to handle converting the date/time to a double. COleDateTime encapsulates time stored as a DATE, which is a typedef for double. COleDateTime uses the same conversion factor for date/time as what the num edit expects, and since it supports a conversion operator to a DATE, which is really a double, and the num edit Value property is a double, displaying the current time in a num edit can be as simple as this:
// Assuming you have a member variable called m_numEdit for a CNiNumEdit
m_numEdit.FormatString = _T("hh:nn:ss");
m_numEdit.Value = COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime();
Hope this helps.

How to change the system time in (E-Business Suite)

Hi,
I need to change the system timings in E-Business Suite.
My Database & Application is on different nodes..
How could i change system timings on both...
Thanks,
Alig

Alig,
Changing the OS date/time will have no impact on the data (except for the scheduled jobs at the database and the OS levels). As mentioned in the threads I referenced above, you have to stop the application/database, change the date/time at the OS level, and start the application.
The application is just an interface which connects to the database, so it gets all the data from the database server. However, if you want to change the date/time it has to be done on both nodes (stop all the services first as mentioned above).
Btw, what is the point of changing the date/time because of Ramadan? The business requirement of your client does not make sense (how does it differ from the application/database perspective if you start working at 9:00 AM instead of 7:00 AM for example)?
The steps in the document should be enough, and if you do not trust any of the replies here you could simply log a SR and confirm this with Oracle support.
Thanks,

How to display the Date Time using the System Time zone

Friends,
Can anyone help me with below scenario..
I have to display Date Time on a jsff page, This value associated to one of Transient View object populated from the database.. Is there any way I can handle on the screen to display the same date /time bassed on the system time zone ?
I know one way how we can handle it.. while populating to View object we can set the time based on the system time zone.. but it would be easy and simple if there is any approach I can use on UI layer itself..
thanks

I don't understand why this display doesn't pay attention to the date/time format settings that are set in the language and text prefs.
Those settings are used for date OR time, and provide for different displays depending on the space available. The menu bar does not have a fixed space available, and wants both date and time.
In Leopard, it used the medium time format. To get the date and time, you could modify that format to include the date, but that could cause problems with software that happened to use the medium time format and expectede just the time. Also, you might want to change the medium time format without changing the menu bar display. For these reasons, Snow Leopard's menu bar clock uses its own formatting for data and time display.

How to get the system date as a session attribute?

Hi all,
How can i get the system time and date to a session?

This is one way:
        Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
        SimpleDateFormat sd1 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd");
        System.out.println(sd1.format(cal.getTime()));
        SimpleDateFormat sd2 = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm:ss");
        cal.add(Calendar.HOUR, 1);
        System.out.println(sd2.format(cal.getTime()));

How do you return System Time of the local box in FTP command

How do you return System Time of the local box in FTP command... since I want to output the system time of my local box copying to the FTP server...

Its asking me to enter a new date... I actually want to return it into a log file since I am using ws_ftp.... but the log files dont have any date time being returned... i just want to be able to echo that date time into the log file... but it doesnt do that... I also tried
SHELL ECHO %DATE% %TIME%
but it returns this in the log file
Processing Line 10 [SHELL ECHO %DATE% %TIME]
I also tried in my ws_ftp script and it says:

How to make the exchange of data between 2 while loop in real time

hello
I have 2 while loop
the 1st while loop includes the data acquisition program
the 2nd while loop includes the control program
my question is how to make the exchange of data between 2 while loop in real time
I tried with the local variable and direct wiring between the 2 while loop
it does not work (there is a delay)
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Bilalus,
Queues are only good to transfer data if your application isn't deterministic. Since you are using Real Time, I am assuming that your application requires determinism. If you are using Timed Loops and you use queues to transfer data between your loops, you are losing determinism. In this case, you need to use the RT FIFO functions.

How to find the Last modified date and time of a package

Hi,
We need a clarification on how to find the Last modified date and time of a package in Oracle. We used the example below to explain our scenario,
Lets consider the following example
Let A, B be two packages.
Package A calls the package B. So A is dependent on B.
When A is compiled the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS gets updated.
Now there a modification in package B so it is compiled. There is no modification in package A.
Now when the package A is executed the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS gets updated but we did not make any change in Package A. Now we need to find last modified date and time of the package A . So we can not rely on the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS . Can u please tell us any other solution to get last modified date and time of the package A .
Regards,
Vijayanand.C

Here is an example:
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 2004-05-20:10:57:32 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 10:59:04 2004-05-20:10:59:04 VALID
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE A AS
2 BEGIN
3 NULL;
4 NULL;
5 END;
6 /
Procedure created.
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 11:01:28 2004-05-20:11:01:28 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 10:59:04 2004-05-20:10:59:04 INVALID
SQL> EXEC B
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 11:01:28 2004-05-20:11:01:28 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 11:01:53 2004-05-20:11:01:53 VALID
Note that the date under the column 'created' only changes when you really create or replace the procedure.
Hence you can use the column 'created' of 'user_objects'.

How to remove the system data details from the overview tab in crmd_order?

Hi,
It is a standard functionality. Those information will be very useful when you send a message to SAP.
