HP89410A VSA example problem, Trace data problem

after downloading the VSA driver from NI web, i'm trying the VSA application example vi, but the instrument keeps giving me "invalid seperator;:CALC%d:UPHFFS %f DEG:" error, turned out to be in the DataFormat vi. I'm using the default setup, anyone knows what's going on? and also i'm trying to use this example to measure some spectrum, but sometimes there's no X-trace data. But if i directly wire the VSA VISA session to X-trace and Y-trace subvi, i can get both trace data, seems having problem when concatenate these two subvis (Xtrace, Ytrace). i wonder if it's a time issue, anyone has the experience?
Thx a lot.

Hi Bankim,
thx for the message, i deleted the space and also add one more ";" at the last "cal" string, then it seems to be working, attached is the new dataformat vi, u can compare it with the original one. There're altogether 3 places which use the "cal", i'm not sure if i add the ";" right, cos ";" was there in the first 2 string, and if u don't add this ";", u still get an error.
Thx
Ben

Trace filters & Trace Data Viewer crash problem

hi,
i've just managed to get trace running and all, but now i have too much data to view. i would like to view only sql statements that come from my application and not all action that goes on on the server...
my other problem is trace data view. it crashes when i click on details tab beside Sql statement.
what data is displayed in details tab? the reason i'm asking is that i execute some insert/update/delete querys with parameters that i cannot see in vb.net (i mean the values of those parameters) but i need to be sure that application passes right values. when i worked with sql server it was very simple to see what is happening on the server, here i only get sth. like
INSERT INTO ismm_merilna_mesta
(id_ismm, ime_postaje, ime_vodotoka,
vstopno_za_napravo, izstopno_za_napravo)
VALUES (ismm_seq_merilna_mesta.NEXTVAL, :b1,
:b2, :b3, :b4)
so parameter values :b1, :b2... are completly unknown to me!
are those values displayed under details tab? Can i see them any other way? is there mybe any other tool for real time tracing & displaying data similar to sql servers Profiler?
thanks for all replies...

Maybe check this:
http://www.psoug.org/reference/trace_analyzer.html
I wouldn't trust such analyzer... but this is my private opinion

Is anybody has the example problem for AD/DA converter controled by PIC16F84?

In my circuit( Multisim 9), I use PIC16F84 as the
MCU to control the DAC and ADC. I want to ask if anyone has the example
problem for the controlling?
Further more, the I/O port of
PIC16F84 seems can not be connected with the digital output of DAC, so
I asked myself, is it right that for PIC16F84, the I/O port can only
connected with the serial port of DAC and ADC? Or it needs a converter
to adapt to the input port of DAC?
Looking for any help! Thanks!

You can test the new Design Circuit Suite (includes Multisim10 with MCU10 and Ultiboard 10 with Ultiroute10). When you open Samples you find the folder MCU with PIC folder. In these you can find some examples to PIC16F84. With that as pattern you should solve the problem.
I attached you here the MCU examples in the *.zip

Example: Calculating Operation Dates

Hi Gurus,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/7e/d4191b455911d189400000e8323c4f/frameset.htm
Menu path: Routings > Scheduling Routings > Example: Calculating Operation Dates
We have an example in SAP library in the above link.
As per that queue time, setup time and processing time it is taking 10min extra.
I mean the setup time is 0.5hrs, but as mentioned in the example,the setup start at 09.20 and setup end at 10.00. My doubt is setup end time should be 09.50. Why it is taking 10min extra.
Please refer to this example in Library and explain why this difference.
Regards,
Jejesh

Dear,
please refere the example as the Working Time for work Center is 8 hours Which is then reduced to 6 hours after subtracting breaks & Utilization factor it comes as 6 hrs.
So the Total reduction is 25% this means that all timings will be set by adding 25 % so that they can be set in 8 Hr scale. the 10 min that u are refering is result of that.
Think & Try to set the Time considering Breaks & Utilization factor for a Problem ur self u will then able to appriciate that example.

Transfer trace data from the intrument - Anritsu MS2721B Spectrum Master

HI all,
I would like to solicit some helpful hints from you.
I am trying to transfer trace data from an Anritsu MS2721B spectrum master using the TRACE command. I have configured the instrument to run in a continuous sweep mode.
Using the Visa Interactive Control I am sending the following viWrite command to the instrument ":TRACe?\n"
viRead returns some alphanumeric characters which unfortunately I have been unable to decipher. The returned information looks something like this:
#42204\xe0\xcd\xfe\xff\xac\xcc\xfe\xff\x18\xc9\xfe\xff\xe8\xc4\xfe\xff\x8c\xc8\xfe\xffD\xd1\xfe\xffd\xd5\xfe\xffL\xc9\xfe\xff\x94\xc4\xfe\xff\x9c\xca\xfe\xff\xd8\xc5\xfe\ ...
From the user's guide I am able to understand that the first #4 means that a 4-digit length info will follow. The 4-digit length info is the next 4 byte characters -- "2204", means that the actual data block 2204 bytes will follow.
I would just like to know how to decipher the data block? I have tried the command several times but I keep getting the same ASCII header with the same the number of data bytes i.e. 2204 but different alphanumeric characters in the subsequent data block.
I have tried by sending different format commands to the instrument before sending the TRACe query command like :FORMatATA INTeger,32 or :FORMatATA REAL,32 with no success.
When I run the ":TRACeREamble?\n" the trace header information is returned without problems.
I will be grateful if I can get any helpful hints.

Hi Tomohide Tsukasaki san,
Thank you very much for your helpful suggestion.
I did manage to read the trace data from the instrument. Unfortunately, I was not giving enough time between the write command sent to the instrument and reading the data from the instrument. I discovered that the sweep takes several tens of seconds to finish. If I wait for about 50 ~ 60 seconds between the write and read command, I get the correct trace data.
Thank you all and sorry for any inconveniences caused.

Provide simple example for Arbitrary data sending through NI4551(DSA)

We Converted NI-DSA function palette
in LabVIEW under Application
Examples>>Advanced>>Arbitrary Output Example.
But, We not exactly getting arbitrary wave. Our arbitrary data is correct. I think there is a problem with FFT settings. So Please Provide simple example for Arbitrary data sending through NI4551(DSA)

Hello Sateesh!
First, what versions of LabVIEW and NI-DSA are you using. I have been searching around for the example you are refering too and I am not able to find it. Are you creating and arb. wave in the frequency domain and then performing an FFT to get it to the time domain? Next, remember your wave will only be as exact as the AO specs. of the hardware...
The output conversions occur simultaneously at software-programmable rates from 1.25 to 51.2 kS/s in increments of 47.684 µS/s. The analog output circuitry uses eight-times oversampling interpolators with 64-times oversampling delta-sigma modulators to generate high-quality signals. Software-programmable attenuation of 0, -20, or -40 dB is available on the output channels. The PCI-4451 has excellent amplitude flatness of ±0.2 dB within DC to 23 kHz, and a THD of -90 dB at 1 kHz.
Now, as far as obtaining other examples If you use the LabVIEW example finder and goto Hardware Input and Output>>Traditional DAQ>>Analog Output. I would also in the lower right hand corner of the Example Finder select your 4451 this will show you all examples that work with your hardware. I hope this helps a little but please give me more details we will go from there. Have a great day!

How can I read the trace data from Agilent(HP)8510C in C++ using NI488.2 and PCI-GPIB ?

Hello! I am trying to develop an application in C++ for measurements with Agilent(HP) 8510C network analyser using NI488.2 and National Instrument's PCI-GPIB card. In HPBASIC the trace data is read using OUTPDATA command which contains PREAMBLE, SIZE and then the data string in real and imaginary pair for the required points. The ibrd function gives data only for one point. Kindly guide me how I can read the whole trace and and separate out the real and imaginary data values. Regards, kapil

Hey Kapil,
It seems that in HPBASIC you were using an instrument driver for the 8510C. OUTPDATA is not a native HPBASIC function. National Instrument has similar instrument drivers for LabVIEW and CVI.
http://zone.ni.com/idnet97.nsf/9b2b33e1993d877786256436006ec498/7b235254f3881ddb862568ab005fbd2e?OpenDocument
http://zone.ni.com/idnet97.nsf/9b2b33e1993d877786256436006ec498/24ca7db880ab78ae862568ab005fbc0f?OpenDocument
For example in the CVI instrument driver you will find a source file called hp8510.c. In the source code you will find a function called hp8510c_dataInRaw that sounds similar to the function that you described.
Note that this example is designed for CVI, but it is possible that you could extract the information you need for C++. If
you had a copy of CVI you could just add the files downloaded from the instrument driver to a project and then compile and run the project. It already contains a ready to run example that allows you to capture data and use your instrument.
If you want try CVI you can download an evaluation copy on-line at http://ni.com/lwcvi/launch.htm.
I hope this helps out,

Need some example of 'SET DATE MASK'.

Hi Gurus,
I need come example of 'SET DATE MASK ' & 'SET TIME MASK'.
Thanking you.
Subash

Hi Subasha,
/ : SET DATE MASK = 'MMMM DD, YY'
This displays the date as : September 26, 07.
YY Year (2 digits)
YYYY Year (4 Digits)
MM Month (2 Digits)
MMM Month Name (Abbreviated)
MMMM Month Name (Full)
DD Day as two digits
DDD Day name (Abbreviated)
DDDD Day name
Using the SET DATE MASK causes the subsequent date fields to be displayed using the same formatting. To return to the default formatting use the following command:
/: SET DATE MASK = ' '
/: SET TIME MASK = 'HH hrs MM min SS sec'
This displays the time as : 11 hrs 43 min 37 sec'
The following are the codes that can be used in the time mask:
HH Hours
MM Minutes
SS Seconds
The time formatting can be reset to the default setting using:
/: SET TIME MASK = ' '

How can I read the trace data into LabVIEW for E5071B

HI
I am setting up the measurement using vector network analyzer (VNA) E5071B controlled by NI 488.2. How can I read the trace data into LabVIEW and display on the graph? If anyone having an idea or know well about this process please give me the suggestion, I will much appreciate it.
Many Thanks

You want to start with the driver
In case you do not know it, you can do the driver search in LabVIEW from Tools>Instrumentation>Find Instrument Drivers. You might also want to bookmark the Instrument Driver Network for information on what a driver is and how to use it.

Trace data load errors in more details

Hi all.
During data load (update rules) I get error msg in Load Monitor "Arithmetical errors or conversion errors found in routine ROUTINE_0001 record 400"
First of all there is no any ROUTINES in update rules, only 1 FORMULA. So, why monitor points to some ROUTINE_0001?
Second, is there any other opportunity in BI to trace data load/update errors in more detail?

Hi,
This error is because of the internal conversion routines run at the time of loading. While loading the data there might be a chance of some invalid characters (non numeric) coming in the fields with data type NUMC/AMOUNT/QUANTITY.
The arithmatic operations can not be performed on such data. So check if this is the reason why you are getting the above error.
Regards,
Yogesh.
