How to use Mathscript Node to calculate integrals

How do you use the command quadn_trap within a Mathscript Node to calculate the integral 5x^4 dx numerically. The upper bound is 1 and the lower bound is 0. The answer should be 1.
Solved!

Hey Wear,
Cool. Never even heard of quada_nc8 function. Works like a charm, just don't forget the semicolons or single quotation marks.
Thought you might be interested in where my question originated. I am studying the 'Hands-On Introduction to LabVIEW' by John Essick. Problem 5 in Chapter 3 reads:
It is easy to show analytically that the integral (he has the elongated S symbol for the bounds with upper=1 and lower=0) 5x^4dx equals exactly 1. Open a Mathscript Interactive Window and then type help quadn_trap in the Command Window, After learning the syntax of the Mathscript command help quadn_trap write a VI called Numerical Integral that uses quadn_trap within a Mathscript Node to calculate the integral (again elongated S symbol with same bounds) 5x^4dx numerically and then displays the result in a front-panel indicator with Digits of Precision equal to 5. For your numerical result to be correct to five decimal places (i.e., the first five decimal places are all zero), how many x- values must be supplied to quadn_trap within the integration range x=0 to x=1?
Thanks for your help!

How to use mathscript node in server side with the parameter from the client side

I tried to develop a server/client system with some algorithms written in matlab. So I included a mathscript node on the server side. The client will send the parameter to the server. According to these parameters, the sever will call the matlab functions to do some computings and then send the results back to the client. The server has to wait for all parameters received before the computings. How do I know this since I only connect the parameter variables to the inputs of mathscript node on the server. The sever cannot know whethere these parameters are the new ones or old ones since the client may send parameters multiple times?

It seems to me you have two perfectly good options to start with. You could send all possible parameters in a single packet from the client to the server. This could be in the form of a cluster or an array of values. If by server/client you mean you are sending data over the network, then you could flatten this data to string before sending and unflatten it on the other side. Since all parameters come in one packet, you know all the data is valid every time you send data.
The other option is to send the parameters individually, but include some extra information such as a timestamp or iteration count. The server keeps reading and storing parameter values until a packet arrives with the next timestamp. Alternatively, you could include some information such as an end-of-parameter-list boolean that is sent with every parameter. It would be false until the last parameter packet.
Give it a thought. There are lots of solutions.

Can someone bail me out of this ....I've hit a hard brick wall!!!!...What's the problem? What does a brick wall look like?
Connect to the database and execute four SQL INSERT/UPDATE statements as a single unit of work. The fact that you have one form shouldn't be an issue.
I'll bet you're having trouble because you haven't layered the problem either in code or in your mind.
I'd recommend that you write a POJO to take in some objects and execute the SQL. Once you have that running successfully you can worry about the form. Decouple the two.

How to use mathscript to operate on multi-channel data?

I want to measure two or more channels at the same time, and then use mathscript to do some operations.
I used DAQmx Read and For Loop to do measument. The data was saved as "Analog 1D Waveform N channels N samples". The data was wired to the input of the mathscript block, which was outside the For Loop. However, the wire was broken and the data types were not compatible.
So, I extracted each channel data in the For Loop, and form two seperate waveforms. For each waveform, I got the Y component which was used as the input of the mathscript block.
My question is: can I read the multi-channel data directly into the mathscript block?
Thanks,
Qifu

Adnan,
Thanks for your reply.
Here comes another question. The attached is the new .vi file. I compiled it to an executable file. Because the .exe file runs automatically when it is opened, I put a RUN button and a STOP button to control running. However, the .exe file didn't do everything that the .vi file did.
In the .vi file, after the run button in the toolbar is clicked, the file won't run until the RUN button is clicked. The RUN button can be clicked again and again based on how many times we want to do measurement. The file won't stop until the STOP button is clicked.
When the .exe file is opened, the run button in the toolbar is already in the status of running. Since I put a RUN button there, the file actually won't run until the RUN button is clicked. However, if the RUN button is clicked for the second time, there is nothing happened. It is same for the STOP button. Both works well only for the first click.
I am not sure if I explained my question clearly. Because the size of the .exe file is too large, I couldn't attach it. Could you guess what's the possible reason?
Thank you again for your consistent help and support.

How to use Property nodes?

Hi everyone,
I am a beginner of LabVIEW. So I want to know about Property Node in detail. Please Please someone help me know the function of each property node......
Thank You in Advance,

Property node allows you to programmatically read/write that particular property of associated object. For example, say you have a String Control, and you want to modify its 'Display Style'... for that you need to create and use that particular property node (of the String control).
Check the attached example.

How to use formula variable to calculate the days for a document.

Hi expert.
I have a question, I need to calculate how many days it cost for a document, therefore , it should be like this,
cost days = clearing date - creation date..
how can I implement this calculated key figure by formula variable..
Here cost days should be a key figure, but the clearing date and creation date are the characteristics in the document.
it seems that formula variable by replacement path can not be used, do I have to use the customer exit for this variable ??
any other good ways to calculate the cost days (beside during the data loading or by virtual key figure).
I just want to implement this in the query designer..
Please give a detailed steps if you could, thanks a lot.

Hi,
These steps below are for the query designer in BI 7.0:
1. First create a Formula in the Columns.
2. Edit the formula, in the "Available Operands" see for the "Formula Variable".
3. Right Click on the "Formula Variable" folder and then create a new variable.
4. Edi the Formula Variable in the edit screen provide the Description and Technical name; select the processing by as Replacement path.
5. In the reference characteristic select your characteristic "Creation Date".
6. Save the variable.
7. Select the variable into the formula and name the formula as Creation Date.
Repeat the Same steps for the "Clearing Date".
Then create another formula for the Cost days in which you mention as Clearing date (Formula) - Creation Date (Formula).
Hope your issue is solved...

How to use address node in smart forms

hii all,
can any one tell me how to print the address usin the address node in smartforms....pls explain me in detail...
thank you.

Hi Neelima,
Create a Address Node to print the addres of particular object like vendor, customer, plant, company address etc...
for example vendor address
To Print the address, you need to declare a variable VENDOR_ADRNR TYPE ADRNR in Form interface Import Parameters.
Get the Vendor Address Number from LFA1 Table and pass the value to the form interface parameter when you call the smartform function module in the print program.
Pass this to Address number &VENDOR_ADRNR& in the address number field, then the system will get the address of the vendor automatically.

How to use custom nodes in a JTree without reinventing the wheel?

Hello,
Each node contains two JTextAreas in a Box layout and a few JButtons.
I wish to display these nodes in a JTree.
Reading the tutorial, it seems I would have to reimplement the TreeModel, TreeCellRenderer/Editor, MutableTreeNode interfaces etc.
Can I use the DefaultTreeModel, and other standard widgets (great stuff!) to minimize the amount of reimplementation I must do. aka avoid reinventing the wheel? I was thinking of extending my node from the DefaultMutableTreeNode class - however it does not display the nodes with the TextAreas, buttons etc.
any help appreciated.
thanks,
Anil

How to use matlab program in formula node in labview?

hi,
i've got one equation of voltage regulation. so i did create program for that in matlab.and want to use it in formula node in labview.but i don't know how to do that.can someone please help me for that?
regards
bhavin

If you have already written Matlab code it is easier to import it straight into a Mathscript node. If you use a Formula node you need to translate m- syntax to c-syntax which may take longer. Note that the Mathscript node
may not support all the functions you used in Matlab so you may need to replace them with native LabVIEW functions. If you want to add inputs/outputs in your program you can just right-click on the border of the node to do that.
These structures can be on the block diagram under Programming>> Structures.

How to not display nodes in a tree if Oracle roles are NOT used?

How to not display nodes in a tree if Oracle roles are NOT used?
We don't use Oracle DB roles to grant users access to Forms from the menu. We use a template and role system of our own. Basically a few tables with templates and roles.
We want to convert our normal Forms menu to a tree menu and one of our key requirements is that when the tree is populated ONLY nodes with programs (i.e. forms) he has been granted to execute is shown.
Since we don't use Oracle Roles how to do this in a tree?
I created a function to show/hide LEAF nodes, BUT problem is that there are sub-menu nodes showing even if the leaf-nodes under it has not being displayed. My function has suppressed it.
My tree query is like this:
SELECT
     t.status, LEVEL, t.label, t.icon, t.node VALUE
FROM
     tma_tree_menu t
WHERE
tma_authenticate_sys_chk_role(USER, t.node) = 1
CONNECT BY
     PRIOR t.node = t.master
START WITH
     t.MASTER IS NULL
ORDER SIBLINGS BY
t.position
The tma_authenticate_sys_chk_role will return 1 only if the user has access to the form under that node.
I tried the FTree functions in Forms but even that has nothing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edited by: Channa on Mar 17, 2010 6:49 AM

Would you share the source code? I guess what I need is how exactly you retreive the user credentials from the DB table and set that boolean variable.
and then how to condition it in UIX?

How to show/hide sliders on a slider control using property nodes?

If I have a slider with multiple sliders on it how do I change which sliders are visible using property nodes? The only property I have found is making the entire control to be visible or not. This is a possible solution to have two different controls, one slider with only one slider and another slider with two sliders overlapped, but not desirable.
I found on a thread in the forum that it is possible but the user did not provide any specifics about which property it was. (http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=181279&query.id=34404#M181279)
I would appreciate an example VI if possible (Preferred version is 8.5 but versios 8.2, 8.0, and 8.6 are available to me).
Thank you in advance for the help,

How to use For-Each Structure with Multiple node XML structure

Hi,
How to use for-each (BPEL 2.0) construct for Multinode XML structure.
Here is the easy case: I have list of suppliers specified by supplier
<supplierList>
<supplier>1</supplier>
<supplier>2</supplier>
<supplier>3</supplier>
</supplierList>
Now there is a web service http://hostname/getsupplierdetails/wsdl which accepts one supplier at a time.
like
<supplier>1</supplier>
reponse object is
<message> notfound/found </message>
But how can I use for each of XML node to call this service and collect the result like
<supplierList1>
     <Suppinfo>
        <supplier>1</supplier>
        <message> not found</message>
</suppinfo>
    <suppinfo>
        <supplier>1</supplier>
        <message> not found</message>
</suppinfo>
</supplierlist1>
Thanks

For looping you use foreach loop and , loop for the number of occurences and when constructing response, adding a new element you have to use bpelx:append. Good sample at Enterprise Integration: Oracle SOA Suite 11g: Populating a list or an array in BPEL without using XSLT.
