How would I interface an instrument with a serial UART output to LabVIEW?

I am trying to gather some information on a upcoming project. I have a instrument that outputs a serial UART stream. I would like to interface this with LabView. This is the product that I am planning to interface with. http://www.pressureprofile.com/products-digitacts.php I am just learning how to use LabView so this is all new to me, any help would be greatly appreciated.

First- I would recommend takinga look into the Basic serial read and write example that ships with LabVIEW. Second, RTFM (Read The Friendly Manual) for the device. A Google search for serial comms will provide a reasonable backround for how serial comms can be configured.
As to how to implement the specific serial protocol in LabVIEW-- well, use a VISA call to the serial port to configure the various properties of the VISA ser:instr class and IF you learn the equipment's expected settings and what, and when, it responds, the "nuts-and-bolts" of wiring your device driver becomes reasonably simple.

WIth LabVIEW how do I control an instrument with a RS232 output, using a RS232 to USB converter cable.

WIth LabVIEW how do I control an instrument with a RS232 output, using a RS232 to USB converter cable since I dont have rs232 ports. I have two instruments that I want to control in this manner. One is an Imada ZPS force gage with RS232 output. The other is a Panasonic HL-G103-S-J laser micrometer sensor which is RS422. I've done considerable LabVIEW programming using GPIB but I have no experience with devices like these. Any tutorial or examples would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I understand that you want to control a device which having RS 232 port as output. If so, you can use an USB-RS232 cable from PC to device and you can control or monitor the device.
See this link http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/2669
Also, first check the device in hyperterminal and then continue to program in labVIEW. You can find the serial VI's in Instrument I/O.

HT1349 how can you track you ipod with only serial number ]

2nd Generation ipod Touch

Hello, Tommyty,
I am sorry you have lost your iPod. You don't yet seem to understand that its serial number is not tracked electronically. Here is my attempt at explaining the same thing that Limnos and stevejobsfan0123 have already told you.
Tommytj wrote: ... HT1349 how can you track you ipod with only serial number ] ...
Only by physically looking at the iPod's serial number.
Tommytj wrote: i need to find my ipod can anyone help me find a way to track my ipd touch with only a serial number using icloud.
No.
Nobody can help you with that request because iCloud and "Find My iPod touch" do not work that way.
If you cannot see the iPod, you cannot track its serial number. Unless someone sees the serial number, nobody can track it.
Regardless of whether you have properly installed and enabled "Find My iPod touch", iCloud does not track your iPod's serial number. This is true even when you or someone else can see your iPod's serial number.
Regardless of how much you wish iCloud could track your iPod's serial number, it cannot.
"Find My iPod touch" can sometimes track an iPod's location but only under the specific circumstances Limnos has already explained to you.
If "Find My iPod touch" cannot locate your iPod by its location, there is no iCloud way to find it. In that case, the only way to identify your missing iPod is for you or someone else to physically look at it.
Perhaps you will be successful with one of these alternative possibilities for recovering your iPod:
• you can physically search and find your misplaced iPod
• someone may it returned in response to a reward that you offer
• the police may find it after you have reported it stolen

How to control an Xserve G4 with the serial port

I have an Xserve G4 first generation, and was wondering exactly how you would go about connecting to it via serial port incase I need to change something when there is a network issue. I have looked around the internet without much success. It has Leopard Server on it, so Apple says the baud rate is 56700, and 8bit, no parity. So that's all set in the client machine, which is a MacBook Pro with a USB to Serial adapter on it, which shows up in Zterm. Once I'm in Zterm, it just sits there, and pressing enter doesn't prompt a log in. Does anyone see what else I'm most likely missing?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply Cemelot. Yes, I did create a profile in ZTerm. This is what I have it set to.
I also read that you're supposed to run the command "/usr/libexec/getty serial.57600 /dev/tty.serial" on the Xserve itself. It made no difference if I did that or not. I also checked to make sure tty.serial was inside /dev/. Anything else I'm missing? Thanks again.

How to call a Stored Procedure with a REF CURSOR output parameter

I am looking forward an example that call a stored function/procedure with a REF CURSOR output parameter and get the result.
In other words, I have a stored function/procedure that execute a SELECT statement using the OCI library and then it could get the values of each column and each row.
I put a code snippet, it have only the main thing to call a simple stored procedure and print the name of each column of the cursor, but I couldn´t to print out the values in the table that call the stored procedure.
I understand that the next step, it is to call a OCIStmtFetch.
How to associate the cursor with the OCIStmtFetch?
If you need more information, only tell me.
I am using ANSI C with HP-UX Operative System (C for HP-UX) and Oracle 10g.
Regards.

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your recommendations.
I change the code with OCIDefineByPos, one for each parameter from cursor and then use the OCIStmtFetch.
I don´t receive a error when call OCIDefineByPos, but when I call OCIStmtFetch receive a -1 error number.
What is wrong with the code?
The script is the same.
I need your help!

How to block an Ipod Touch with a serial number?

Who can tell me how i can block my Ipod Touch, it was stolen and i did not configured the Icloud application to find it or lock it...Can i block it with the serial number? i live in Colombia and i don´t really know where can i get support to do this..
thank you

No. The SN will only help idenify the iPod as yours if it is recovered.
- Report to police and change the passwords fro all accounts used on the iPod.

HT4061 How can i find my ipad with the serial number

How can I find my iPad with serial number

I had FindMyPhone installed and activated on MY Lost iPad (now with a new "owner") and it NEVER worked EVER!
There is/was no such thing as FindMyiPad...ONLY FindMyPhone. It WAS installed (I dont own an iPhone) AND activated! I suspect that unless you have 4G device it is worthless. Actually I know this for a fact!
AND, I knew that the new "Owner" had gone online (despite FindMyPhone telling me otherwise and NEVER locking my iPad) because Dropbox on my laptop suddenly had new photos that were taken by the new "owner".
I am now of the mind that Apple does not want us to find our lost or stolen gadgets. They make money off us when we replace them. Do what I am going to do: BUY USED!
So sorry, I feel your pain.

We uninstall photoshop cs6 on PC (creative suite design standard). How can we re-install it with our serial number ?

After a problem with photoshop cs6 (CTRL+T stopped the application with an error message and closed the window), we uninstall it.
We can't download photoshop cs6 on the adobe site to re-install it.
At the moment I am working on photoshop cc evaluation for 1 month.
What can we do to re-install cs6 with our serial number ?
Thanks.

If you did not deactivate the software before uninstalling then you should remember to do that in the future should you decide to uninstall again. If you contact Adobe support thru chat they can help with deactivating the original installation.

How would Kirk Hunter EXS24 instruments work with Logic Pro 9

I understand that Kirk Hunter strings are quite good. Does anyone know how the EXS24 version would work in logic pro 9? Is it just a question of putting files in the correct directory so they show up in the media library, or is something else involved?
Thanks
(Note : The orchestral strings that come bundled with logic are disappointing. For a quantitative example, playing C1 (2 Cs below middle C) of the cello, there is no contribution at the fundamental frequency of ~65 Hz, as can be seen from an EQ analyzer.)

Kirk Hunter's EXS24 instruments work very well in Logic 9.
Drag the instruments folder here: User>>Library>Application Support>Logic>Sampler Instruments. (Or place an Alias of the KH instruments folder at the above location if you have your instruments stored on another drive.)
I placed the instruments in the above location but have the samples on an external drive when using my MPB, and on a separate internal HD in my MP.
Click on Options in the upper right of the EXS24 GUI to access Preferences. Make sure that Search samples on... is set to All Volumes.
The Diamond library is big bang for the buck when buying the EXS24 version. I also have the EXS 24 version of Concert Strings ll. But, it looks like KH is only going to release Kontakt versions of new products. I ended up also buying the Kontakt version of Diamond.

"hi....
I've ever controlled some instrument by GPIB interface using Labview 6.0...it's really easy to implement .....but the problem is that i hvae to control those instrument under the pure DOS environment now ..so i have to abandon the using of GPIB interface and Labview ....then i choose the RS232 interface with programing the Borland C++ v3.1 and sending the SCPI command by bioscom()....but it got no response at all......so i am wonder if i can control those instrument by using RS232 interface and Borland C++ v3.1 to implement a pure Dos program????if yse,how can i do and is there any sample can be refer to ????
thank you for you help"

I have been asked to create a custom welcome screen that would load after a person logs into their computer . This screen is to have links to a couple of items.
but I need this to show after they log in and before they see their desktop.
How do I do this or even accomplish this?

According to your description, it really seems like a start screen in Windows 8\8.1, after user logs on to the system, he will first see a "start screen" with tiles (links to an App) on the screen, then he can manually swith to the classic desktop if he
want.
But in Windows 7, I never saw this kind of settings, for VB6 and HTA page, seems more related with development, if so, I suggest you post in this forum

AUDIOPHILES: How would Apple Pro Speakers work with newer equipment?

I LOVE my G4's Apple Pro Speakers and want to use them on my new Intel iMac - Ideally to plug them into my JBL Creature Speaker bass.
My theory is to simple cut the wire before the Y junction and put on a RCA plug that would plug into my JBL Bass.
Have any audiophiles done this or have an opinion on if this would work?
Would the JBL Bass recognize the Apple Pro Speakers?

The Apple Pro speakers do not work with any computer other than an iMac G4 or a Power Mac G4 with the mini-plug. It is a different plug because they are powered by the computer, while a standard 1/8-inch plug is not.
If you really want to use those speakers (they are not very good, the JBL Creatures that you speak of are much better), Griffin Technologies used to make something called the iFire which let you do that. It was box that had the mini jack and used the audio and one FireWire port of your computer to power it. I am not exactly sure why they do not sell it anymore. Look on eBay or something like that.
I am not sure how well your solution will work, because it is a thin cable, probably twisted together. And these speakers are far from audiophile quality.

Re: how can i interface Oracle 8i with webpages in HTML

Hi all,
I am a novice in Oracle 8i. I want to know how to interface some tables that are in Oracle 8i with some static pages in HTML? Can it be done or do I have to use Java?
I need a prompt reply for this.
Thanks,

You'll have to use the destype DELIMITEDDATA to render your Report in CSV format. Then set the mime type to Excel. I don't know the exact syntax, so please do a search in metalink for "reports excel" for examples and more info.

My iPod touch was recently stolen, and I don't know how to locate it. What good would filing a police report with the serial number do?

I recently got my iPod touch fourth generation stolen. How do I get it back? I've heard of filing a police report and giving them my serial number, but what good would that do? I don't have any locater apps on it so I don't know what to do. Helpp!!!

If you did not set up Find My iPod on the unit before it was stolen, then there's no way to trace it. Whether filing a police report would accomplish anything I can't say, but it's all you can do. They might get lucky.
If you purchased the iPod with a credit card, check with your card issuer and ask if they offer any sort of loss/theft coverage. Some card programs do, and would replace the iPod for you.
