I have a PXI-8109 with Real Time installed. That displays USER1 indicator?

HI all,
I have a PXI-8109 with Real Time installed.
That displays USER1 indicator LED on the panel?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thank you.
The NI PXI-8109 front panel has 4 LEDs.
(Figure 3-1. NI PXI-8109 Front Panel Layout and Dimensions)
- PWR OK/FAULT LED
- DRIVE LED
- USER1 LED
- USER2 LED
The NI PXI-8109 User Manual describes only 2 LEDS:
- PWR OK/FAULT LED
- DRIVE LED
What do USER LEDs on the NI PXI-8109 front panel mean?

Compatibility of Pattern I/O with a PXI-6533 card with real time application

Hi,
I use a PXI-6533 card on a chassis with a PXI-8145 RT controller. I want to acquire 32 bits of data with this card at 1,25 kHz. These data are generated by an external FPGA card together with a clock signal. Referring to the 6533 documentation, a simple way to synchronize the acquisition is to use pattern I/O, entering the clock signal on the REQ pin. I tried the LabVIEW example Cont Pattern Input.vi. It seems to go well, but it does not work when I change this .vi priority to Time-critical or any higher priority than normal. Is there an incompatibility between this type of acquisition and real-time ?

Hi,
Sorry for this late answer, I effectively added a �wait until next ms function� in the time-critical loop and it seems to work. In fact, I don�t see exactly how, but it works with 1ms up to 50 ms.
Nevertheless, the next step is to add the content of this example in a more complex system with a communication loop to transfer the acquired data to the Host PC. I already have such an architecture, with a �time-critical priority� .VI to read the data at 1.25 kHz and a RTFIFO to transfer them to a second �normal priority� .VI loaded on the PXI, that ensures a TCP communication with the HOST PC. This architecture works correctly on another application with an internal clock, BUT doesn�t with this example, even with your solution.
In
fact, it seems to work when I put the two .VIs loaded on the PXI in �normal� priority, but with a tremendous jitter (the frequency varies from 1 to 2 kHz) and a scan backlog that gets full very fast. Then, the PXI crashes as soon as I change any priority.
You�ll find attached these three .VIs and I hope this could help to find a solution.
Cordially
PS: Since we started this thread, I�m in relation with NI Support France on that subject. Nevertheless, we haven�t found any solution yet and any new idea is welcome !

How can I boot my PXI controller into real-time without a floppy disk?

My PXI controller is in a lab which has intense magnetic fields that could corrupt the floppy disk used to boot the PXI controller into the LabVIEW Real-Time (RT) Operating System. How can I boot the PXI controller into real-time directly from the hard drive?

If you are using LabVIEW 5.1.2 Real-Time (RT), launch Remote System Explorer and select Disks >> Create Format Hard Drive Disk. If you have LabVIEW 6 RT, launch the Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) and select Tools >> RT PXI Disk Utilities >> Create Format Hard Drive Disk (LabVIEW RT 6 has not be released yet). Once you have created the disk, boot the PXI controller with the Format Hard Drive Disk, and this will format the PXI's hard drive and install the real-time OS boot loader. Now you can reboot the PXI without a floppy disk and configure the PXI using Remote System Explorer or MAX. Be aware that this will remove all information from the hard drive, including other operating systems.

TCP/IP Connecting with Real Time Controller

I have a host running Labview on a windows XP and a realtime embedded controller on a pxi chassis that acts as the server. When the realtime is started it automatically goes into listen mode and listens for a connection from the host. The host opens a connection. After a valid connection is open the Real-Time side goes into a TCP_Read and the host can then send commands that the real time processes and sends to the FPGA on the pxi-chassis.
Now the problem I'm having is how to handle the case when a TCP connection is lost. I can have the TCP_Read on the real-time error on a time out and then go into a listen mode but this isn't very logical because then the host will have to reconnect each time a time out occurs. So if I make the TCP_Read timeout be infinite and if the connection is lost (let's say I unplug the ethernet cable and re-plug it back in) then I cannot recover from this and the Real-time will need to be re-booted.
I've tried to send the Real-time into listen mode if the error code is other than a timeout error (code 56) and have it go back to TCP_read mode if it is a timeout error. But if the connection is lost by means of a physical way (such as me pulling the ethernet wire and plugging it back in) then the Real-Time never sees that the connection is invalid. The host on the other hand can detect it bc it will get an error when it's trying to write?
So my is:
Is there any way to prevent an infinite loop that needs a reboot and at the same time prevent the host from reconnecting every time there is a timeout?

Hi SJeane,
I apologize for taking so long to respond, but I wanted to test this on my end. In doing so, I realized that using the RT Reboot Controller.vi after the connection is lost does not work because the message to reboot cannot be relayed to the target without communication! Thus, to solve this problem, we have to approach it a different way. You mentioned that you tried programmatically clearing errors, but did you try to reestablish connection after clearing the errors? I tested this on my end with a FieldPoint controller, and the attached VIs resumed operation even after unplugging/replugging the Ethernet cable (no reboot). Will this solution work for you?

Using PXI 6541 in real time applications

Hi,
I am using PXI 6541 for data acquisition from an electronic card. Electronic card generates an interrupt signal and PXI acquire data when it gets interrupt signal. The interrupt signal is generated 1 KHz. But using my windows XP, I cannot acquire data on this high rate. The highest rate that I can acquire data is 50 Hz. If I want to acquire data with 1 K Hz, from electronic card using PXI 6541 and using Windows XP, What Should I do.

Are you trying to use the 'interrupt signal' as a sample clock for your acquisition? If so, you should be able to route the signal to the PFI input and configure it as the sample clock.
As mentioned in your other thread (http://forums.ni.com/t5/Digital-I-O/Using-PXI-6541-in-real-time-applications/m-p/2561885), I would also recommend looking through some of the examples to get a starting point for your application.

B2MML with real time data

Hi All
I want some B2mml files with real time data.
So exact( maintenance infromation and Production) B2MML that is coming from MIS.
So if anyone have some information regarding this please tell me.
Thanks in Advance
Ramshanker

Hi, Ramshanker.
In the cases where the plant system is directly delivering B2MML documents (such as with certain products from Wonderware, Siemens, and some others), using the data in xMII is quite straightforward.
1) If the B2MML message is not "standard" B2MML (be aware that very few plant vendors use the baseline standard - most have a number of specific extensions), you can add the vendors' schemas or B2MML example documents to xMII by adding them to a ReferenceDocument folder on the server.
2) In xMII BLS, create a transaction (let's assume you called it B2MMLHandler) with one input parameter, of type "XML" (let's assume you called it "B2MMLDocument"). Add a "ReferenceSchema" or "ReferenceDocument" action, and configure it to load the vendor's B2MML format. Use the "assign reference document" menu option to assign this format to the transaction input.
3) You can now use the B2MML document to perform analytics or to map from the B2MML document into any RFC or BAPI calls or ESA service calls from within BLS.
4) The plant system system should "post" the XML data to an xMII transaction using the "Runner" URL as in:
http://<yourserver>/Lighthammer/Runner?Transaction=B2MMLHandler&InputParameter=B2MMLDocument
Of course, if the MES system isn't capable of posting the documents and they are available on the file system, you can use the xMII file actions (or remote file access via FTP) to access and load the B2MML documents, perhaps at a scheduled interval.
Hope this helps get you started in the right direction.
Best regards,
Rick Bullotta

RMAN in active data guard with real time apply ON without a catalog DB

I would like to know whether I can take RMAN backups (both level 0 & incremental) in active data guard with real time apply ON without a catalog database. version is 11.2.0.3.2. Will it make difference in the control file of standby syncing with primary? Can I use these backups on primary to restore and recover the database(including control file backup)?

Thank you very much msberg. Could you please answer the below queries as well?
Should I cancel Real Time Apply before starting RMAN?
Will it make difference in the control file of standby syncing with primary? Is it possible to use these backups on primary to restore and recover the database(including control file backup)? If possible, how will I do that?

RAC with real time knowledge

Hi, I'm interested in learning RAC and dataguard with real time knowledge......... please help me finding some training institution or peoples with real time knowledge
Thanks

The term "+real-time+" has a very specific meaning in Information Technology. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_computing for the basic details.
Oracle RAC is not a real-time database.. and nor does the "real-time knowledge" make much sense IMO...
Always difficult to get to grips with the nuances of the English language where it is your 2nd or even 3rd language. But it is important that we speak the same language and understand the same terms and concepts, in Information Technology.

[Solved] QJackCtl won't start in with real time.

Hey all,
I'm having a problem with QJackCtl, I got my version from Extra. The problem is that for some reason Jack won't start in real time mode using QJackCtl. Real Time is checked and marked under the set-up tab, but that little piece of info doesn't seem to make it to jackd. If I start Jack through CLI it works with real time, but not from the GUI.
I figured this out by starting JACK from the command line and then starting QJack. When I would do that it would be running in real time just without the rest of my settings (buffer,periods,sampling rate, etc). So in my head there's an issue with QJackCtl. I've tried to find a solution, but I can't seem to find one. This isn't the first time I've set JACK up on a system, but this is the first time I've had this problem.
The rest of the system is set up and ready to go. Rt Kernel, limits.conf and all other tuning is done.
Is there something I missed when setting this piece of software up? Any ideas?
Solved Edit:
Okay, so right after I posted this I got a crazy idea. When you enter setup in qjackctl on the first page there's a box for server path. The path defaults to "jackd". On that line I added "--realtime", so it looked like a basic CLI start-up of JACK and now it works!
So, if anyone else has this problem go to the Setup tab, in the setup window on the line that says Server Path it should look like this:
jackd --realtime
It worked for me and I hope it helps somebody else out.

Which volume? Assuming you're on the most common usecase (single hw audio device) then whatever command line you use (amixer for example) it'll work fine, it'll control the volume of the device rather than the pulseaudio plugin (so other playing apps get affected as well, which is probably what you want). The 'global' volume so to speak.
For multiple hw audio devices it gets tricky though.

after an update my iPhone 4 has frozen with just the apple screen visible. I have tried connecting to iTunes but now iTunes isn't locating my iPhone. I have tried reseting the phone several times and that isn't working. Any ideas?

Try DFU Mode Restore. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes.

I have a 2012 Mini with a fusion drive that won't boot from a usb cloned drive. It came with 10.8.2 pre installed. I have zapped the PRAM and reset the SMC. Any thoughts?

I have a 2012 Mini with a fusion drive that won't boot from a usb cloned drive. It came with 10.8.2 pre installed. I have zapped the PRAM and reset the SMC. Any thoughts?

When I tried using a recently downloaded (from the App store) version of MtLion 10.8.2 (12C60) I could NOT get the new MacMini to install or boot from a USB I had previously made. I was however able to use the Recovery Mode of the MacMini to create a bootable SSD which I had installed. The problem arose when I went back into Recovery DU as it saw the seperate drives (SSD & HD) as a broken Fusion Drive. Interestingly DU from the boot volume had NO issues and reported NO faults. It was the Recovery DU that identified the faulty Fusion Drive configuration. At this point I am definately out of my depth but my speculation is that the Recovery Volume is being used in some fashion to form the method or pattern that DU assigns files to the drives, System Report sees the drives as seperate volumes with all their individual characteristics.
Disk Utility did not make a bootable USB, I don't have or use CCC or Super Duper.
Here is the longer version I've been compiling:
Having bought a late 2012 Mac Mini(6,2) i7 2.66GHZ with the standard 1TB 5400 HD and 4GB of RAM (base model) I immediately decided to install a Mercury Elite 6g 240GB SSD and up the RAM to 16GB. I received both shipments on the same day and had all my new toys in front of me. After following the video advice on OWC’s website for the installation of the second drive I started the mini and formatted the SSD to accept the OS from Recovery on the original HD. This MacMini shipped with 10.8.2 (12C2034) as the OS, the normal build of 10.8.2 is (12C60). Having used Recovery Disk Utility to format the SSD it came back with an error that DU could’t Repair. I went ahead and installed the OS on the SSD and the Mini booted normally from both drives. The issue I encountered with this setup was that iMovie encountered an “unexpected error” and would not save a completed project. I therefore decided to figure the drive issue out because I suspect the new Fusion File Management software didn’t like my configuration with drives that Recovery DU saw as needing to be “fixed”. After spending some time on the phone with both OWC and Apple Support I took the plunge and used Internet Recovery Disk Utility and allowed both drives to be “fixed” after which DU created a Fusion Drive (Logical Drive) that I then ran Repair Disk on and it showed up as a single drive in DU. It works perfectly as described by Apple’s site:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5446
Having checked the Link Speed and Negotiated Speed they both show as 6g so I’m pleased not to have lost performance due to it being fuzed to a 3g 5400 drive. The biggest drawback is that Apple’s Fusion Management only allows for 1 additional partition and I would have preferred more than that.
I have sourced some additional information here:

If anyone has a factory Fusion Drive could you please post the Link and Negotiated Speeds of both drives? This information can be found in Apple > About This Mac > More Info… > System Report > Serial ATA and the drives should show up as discrete drives with their info listed separately.

Yes - I connected my phone to my computer / Itunes and went into the apps section, but from there I have no idea how to manage the push notifications. I even tryied going into itunes that is installed on my phone. I still cannot find anyplace to manage these popups. I have also gone into settings - notifiations - and tried turning all notifications for these apps all off but that didnt work either. Any guidance is MUCH appreciated - Im not sure where to go from here.
