I want to control a telesis pinstamp using labview has anyone done this?
The pinstamp is a Telesis TMP6100 that is being controlled by a Telesis TMC090 controller. The computer communicates with the controller via USB. I need to integrate the pinstamp into an existing in-house VB software package and would like to write a .dll in LabVIEW that would allow the existing VB code to call it with as few changes as possible to the VB. I did get an activeX add on from Telesis but it came without any help files or variable definitions. Telesis seems to want everyone to use their Merlin II software that is also included but I am trying to apply a little K.I.S.S. theory to my already overgrown project. Any suggestions?
There are two ways to comunicate with a TELESIS controller: Programable Protocol for simple one-way comunications and the Extended Protocol that includes error checking and transmission acknowledgment. Both are described at the last page in the Product Data Specification Sheet Download.
Now, there is an ActiveX available to use the Extended Protocol, the Extended Protocol ActiveX Control Download.
With this ActiveX is possible to send commands to the TELESIS controller, and get response when available.
I'm using a Telesis TMP1700 that's being controlled by a Telesis TMC420 controller, and i succesfully got the status, restarted and put online the controller.
It is possible using an ActiveX Container then Insert an ActiveX Object wich is the Telesis Extended Protocol Control. THe next picture will be seen in the Front Panel.
you can change the serial port configuration by clicking on it.
The next step is crating Invoke Nodes to use the methods.
The included file was made in LabVIEW 7.1, and it only request the status. It's necesary to change the command (Type) depending on what you want to do. Check the Product Data Specification Sheet to do this.
It's all i know by two days working on it.

We have a 2009 MBP, 2010 MBP, 2011 MBA, an IPAD 2, and several ipods. Currently, my 2009 MBP is the main computer, holding all the music and pictures. This has used up the majority of the available storage and definitely slows it down some. I do back up the full computer to a backup drive and also remove the large movie files to another external drive. I'm thinking about getting a new iMac to use as the main computer. Has anyone done this? What is your experience and recommendations?
I look forward to all responses.
Thanks,
BradThanks for your response. I look forward to hopefully learning something new here.
A good share of my music was added via my CDs, but now everything is added via itunes and occasionally amazon. Almost all my pictures and video are added through my cameras via iphoto although I have added some with the 'add image to iphoto library' function also. -

Has anyone done this before? (using Win32 dll with Java)
I was wondering if anyone has succesfully completely embedded a Win32 DLL and having it launched in a Java backend using JNI? It would seem that WinMain() would be the barrier to doing this. I'm talking about containing the entire frontend inside a DLL and having it launched using a Java backend.
1. As far as I know, dll's don't have winmains.
2. Your wording is rather imprecise; how about getting rid of "frontend"and "backend", and asking your question again?
(The JNI features of java allow either C or java to be the "main program; C can call java, and java can call C.) -
i have a MacBook pro. I'm trying to connect my Mac through wifi at my house, it shows my router says it's connected with full signal yet I have no internet. So I thought I would try it at my friends house but I had the same problem. the Internet connection and wifi were on, as our iPhones were working through wifi. And my friends Mac works via wifi at my house. Just mine dosnt has anyone had this problem or can help me with this problem thanks.
Try this.
Power off the router. Unplug it from the wall. Wait a while.
Plug it back to the wall. Power the router on. Wait until all the lights are lit properly. It will take a while.
Restart the computer.
Start up in Safe Mode.

I want to make a web page using labview.
I want to make a web page using labview. I have the internet tool kit. Where do I start. Till now all I have used labview is for industrial I/O and mmi. I have used various TCP UDP comms for network purposes, but I haven't ever done anything with Web page design.
The internet toolkit has some functions for generating and manipulating HTML, but it isn't really intended as a Web page authoring tool. I personally wouldn't use it for such a purpose, and I've done a good bit of Web programming in various different environments, including LabVIEW.
The true power of the internet toolkit lies in its ability to create LabVIEW VIs to handle CGI requests, the way that perl or PHP might be used in more traditional Web development. In the old days, this was really the only way to provide Web interactivity with LabVIEW on the back end. Here is a document that outlines how to start up the toolkit's Web server and check out the CGI examples that ship with LabVIEW. This is the best jumping-off point for creating your own pages, if you are planning to use the CGI functionality in the internet toolkit. Just examine how the HTML pages and the CGI VIs in the examples work together and begin to try out your own VIs.
Since LabVIEW 6i, LabVIEW has shipped with Remote Panel functionality that allows you to publish any LabVIEW VI in a Web browser without the burden of creating special CGI functionality. Furthermore, users can fully interact with the VI--buttons, graphs, string controls, etc. That's really a better solution if you want to make VIs available via the Web and aren't so much interested in CGI/transactional behavior. Check this out by choosing Tools >> Web Publishing Tool from LabVIEW.
I hope this info gives you some ideas about starting points for Web functionality in LabVIEW. Please follow up if you have more specific questions.

want to buy airport extreme, am using mountain lion. Will this work ? also, my house is 5,500 square feet all on one floor. Do I need an extender and which one?
... If I purchase an express to extend is it hard to configure as an extender?
No, AirPort Utility prompts you with step-by-step questions and makes configuration simple.
The Express and Extreme have the same transmitter power specifications, so I suggest the $99 Express as an extender, should you need one. Beware that you cannot add a second Express to wirelessly extend the network any further - as the following excerpt from Extending the range of your wireless network by adding additional Wi-Fi base stations explains:
Extended network range considerations
In the above example the primary Wi-Fi base station ➊ is out of wireless range of the extended Wi-Fi base station ➋, therefore the extended Wi-Fi base station cannot join or extend the wireless network. The extended Wi-Fi base station must be moved to a location that is within Wi-Fi range of the primary Wi-Fi base station.
Important Note
If another extended Wi-Fi base station ➋ is placed between the primary Wi-Fi base station ➊ and the extended Wi-Fi base station ➌, the extended Wi-Fi base station ➌ will not allow clients to join it. All extended Wi-Fi base stations must be in direct range of the primary Wi-Fi base station.
A "roaming network" that Bob described, in which all base stations are connected with an Ethernet cable, is by far the best alternative. -
Controlling a solidworks model using Labview
I am an intern working on a project where I have to controll a solidworks model using Labview. I have to make straight 3-dimensional as well as pan and tilt. I am working with Labview 2009 and Solidworks Office Premium 2007. I have seen the videos on the NI website on how to do something similar to this, but they use Solidworks Office Premium 2009.
First of all, is it possible to do this using the 2007 version?
Would I need to purchase any extra Toolkits for Labview?
If it is possible with the tools I have, I would appreciate any help so that I know where to begin.

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

Updated iphone 5 and it want to restore and back up the phone i have done this 3 times, some advice please
Hi Alan Parrock,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you are not able to restore the iPhone. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Hello al!
I created a website with iWeb but use GoDady for hosting it rather than MobileMe. The images on my Gallery page do not show at all on the external domain but they DO show when seen on MobileMe. Has anyone encountered this problem before? Many thanks!Just create a new page (or use the existing photo page) on your external site and use html to add an iframe sized to the page and link it to the mobilme gallery page. Works for me just fine when showing my gallery from a yahoo site.
like this

I am trying to generate a 50kHz sine wave output on the DAQ card and then simultaneously recieve. I am using a PCI-Mio 16E-4 series board to do this. Has anyone done anything similar. I can generate a 50k wave no problem, and recieve one, but I can not get these vis to run together? Any suggestiosn
Jrod, yes you should be able to do this, actually there are quite a few example programs come with LabVIEW that handles simultaneous analog input and output, I check the specs of the board you use, the board should be able to handle the sampling/generation rate, but make sure for 50KHz sine wave, you would sample at least twice as fast, preferably ten times the generation rate, then this puts the sampling of the board to thew limit.
The program you can try is attached here, good luck with the application,

My iPages has frozen up whilst importing a Word file into iPages. I can no longer use this software. has anyone seen this before. Thanks, Ken
Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
Anyways I digress.
So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
Answers in a postcard :-)
Much love
