I2C implementation using Labview.

Hello ,
I am trying to communicate to my IC using Labview. The board on which the IC is uses I2C interface. currently it is connected to the PC using a parallel port dongle and there is GUI which does this, I want to make a I2C interface so that I can communicate to the IC directly using Labview. Is it possible that I use the parallel port to pass the signal directly to the IC, If yes how do i do that? Or is there any other way I can go about this issue.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
RKD

The kind of "bit-banging" you need is defined in the Philips I2C spec. You can get a basic overview of the actual protocol from Wikipedia, or you can get the full spec from the Philips NXP site (at the very bottom there's a link to the PDF). Since the GUI developed in-house you should be able to see the code to see what it does. It should basically just be toggling two of the parallel port lines based on the I2C protocol.
Usually when you buy an I2C interface you get drivers for it that you can use from LabVIEW. Some companies provide LabVIEW drivers directly. Examples: Cal-Bay Systems (pretty popular as it's parallel port), Total Phase, Telos, MCC (Micro Computer Control Corporation) and NI. I've used the Cal-Bay interface and the Total Phase Aardvark so I know they work. The Cal-Bay approach is to basically do bit-banging of the parallel port so it's dependent on software timing. There's an open source interface that was designed for Linux, though there's a port of the library to Windows. Have no idea whether it will work with LabVIEW. As for other sources, you can take a look at the code that was posted in reply #4 of this post. The device being talked to is a SPI device, but the premise is similar. It's using the parallel port to toggle lines to generate the protocol. This 2-year old post refers to an interface with LabVIEW drivers that user KC created. Don't know if it's still available.

Using USB-6008 software timimg Generate waveform

I am using USB-6008 device. Base on it's User Guide, this device on support software-timed and maximum update rate is 150 Hz.
By place a time delay VI for 1ms, I have a 1.660Hz sine signal. Is this wrong for place a time delay VI for software timing?
I would like to generate a 60 Hz signal by using software-timed VI on USB-6008 device. How should I do?
Thanks a lot.

DephinTW,
The update speed of the USB-6008 is largely dependent on the speed of
you computer as well as anything else on your USB bus. If you are using
an older computer or have other USB devices on the bus, you may not
achieve this rate. In order to output a 60Hz signal, the minimum output
sampling rate is 120Hz. This corresponds to an 8.3 msec. delay between
samples. Instead of using the "Wait" VI, you should try using the "Wait
Until Next ms Multiple" VI. Place this in parallel with your
generation. This will synchronize the output with multiples of the PC
clock, rather than waiting for a fixed amount of time, irrespective of
code and USB overhead.
Hope this helps,

Best way to produce PWM using NI-6008

Hello,
I am looking for best method to produce Rectangular waveform with a specific pulse width/pause ratio using NI-6008. It does not matter if I use DO or AO port. Important is frequency which should range soemthing between 1 Hz to 1kHz. (so far I have understood from datasheet that the AO has max output frequency of 150 Hz which does not meet our requirement)
I have tried using frequency functions (DAQmxWriteCtrFreq or DAQmxWriteCtrFreqScalar) in the examples which were shipped with the device but get an error like channel does not support the function or device does not have channels to support these functions.

Hi Amith,
IDOC configured throgh CHANGE pointers.So no need to worry about IDOCS and all.My work was trigger idocs by user exits.Wen ever i change venodr no.. idocs shoud be triger.
Now my question was Insted of going transaction( from there we can go to debuging mode) i want to check this Exit by RBDMIDOC programe(ofter excute this programe and give Message type as CREMAS,from there i want to go debugging mode).
Just now i checked,i put breakpoint in Include programe(INCLUDE ZXF05U01) and excute from XK01,it goes to debuging mode,so its fine.But i want triger from RBDMIDOC programe.Ofter excute RBDMIDOC programe,we can enter CREMAS.From there i want to go debuging mode.

Logout implementation using Site Studio

Hi,
I just wanted to know if the logout functionality of UCM has been implemented using site studio and if yes, how to go about it. We are currently using the logout component that is present in UCM. However, the problem is, that the usage of that component requires you to add a registry entry in IE, to allow this to work. This isnt something that can be done on all machines and is hence not a feasible solution. So I was wondering if there's any other way that this can be implemented. Suggestions please?!
Thanks.

Is there a way to use Fragments or do I need to get a developer to write me non-Stellent code? Well, you need to get yourself a developer to write a fragment. And - dependet on what you want to do - maybe some Content Server customizaitons like custom services.
Imho though it is not a good idea to use Site Studio as a web application plattform. A simple form is fine but if it gets more than that, you should consider writing a jsp or hcsp and check it in to the content server. This jsp or hcsp can still use your fragments and your html layout so that it does not look different from the Site Studio pages. Then you can link this script to a section in your Site Studio web site hierachy and by doing so include this dynamic part into your web site.
Another approach for when you really need to do a lot of application stuff is to write the applications in another Java web app - not checked in to the Content Server - and use CIS to pull content from the Content Server. Or Web Services.

Flush Implementation using mbeans

Hi all,
need your help with an issue regarding mbean implementation using IBM WAS + JMX + Spring. The requirement is : we have a spring based application and in the spring applicationContext file we have certain value injections that i need to make configurable. For this i have used a facility provided by spring to expose a bean as an mbean. Now everything works perfedtly fine but only till the time my server is up and running. As soon as i restart my server the changes that i made using mbean are lost. I want to flush the changes(using JMX) made using mbean to the code so that these changes can be made into the codes permanently and not temporarily as its being done by jmx. Any help is highly appreciated. Thnx in anticipation.

Hello,
Take a look at this page.
Please note it says:
"The LabVIEW FPGA for SPARTAN 3E XUP driver was developed to enable educators
to use LabVIEW FPGA to teach digital and embedded design concepts. This
driver is for educational use and cannot be used on custom FPGA
hardware."
If this does not apply to you, then please take some time to look at the NI compactRIO FPGA product which may be better for your application:
compactRIO
If you are eligible to use the SPARTAN 3E XUP driver, then a video introduction and tutorials are available.
Hope this helps!

What amplifier will recomended for my k-type theromocoupler using usb 6008

I recently do a project about temperature control system using usb 6008, according to the spec, the minimum AI range is +/- 1V and the thermocouple giv the voltages in jz a mV, so what kind of amplifier will be recomamded? is there any amplifier chip set that available ?

Analog Devices AD594/AD595 Monolithic Thermocouple Amplifiers (Type J / Type K)
This would give you a conversion of 10mv per degree C using a single +5v supply you could get to a couple of hundred C
I get 11 bits of resolution available for the +/- 4v range (11 because I can't see a negative supply available so we are only using one side of the differential range).
That's a resolution of 2048 bits over 4v giving 0.001953 v per bit
The devices above give 10 mv per degree C so you would have about 0.2 C resolution and a maximum temperature of around 450 degrees C an minimum temperature of 0 degrees C.
The device draws about 1mW so you should have no problems with power consumption. (Hint Earth / Ground loops might be a problem).
I should add that whilst I have used this device many hundreds of times, I have never applied it to the USB 6008.

How advantages of "Call By Reference" can be implemented using Java

As I know that java doesnot support "Call By Reference" as C++
does.
I want to know that how advantages of Call by Reference can be
implemented using Java.

There is some misunderstanding here. Method arguments in Java are passed by value. However, if you pass a reference (to an object) by value, you can still modify the object that the (copy of the) reference points to.
public void method1() {
StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
// Here, method2 cannot change the value of the variable buf,
// but it can modify the object that buf points to.
method2(buf);
public void method2(StringBuffer sb) {
// You can modify the StringBuffer.
sb.append("hello");
// But this is useless, it will not change the variable buf
// in the calling method.
sb = new StringBuffer();

Using USB-6008 on LIS331 Accelerometer

Hi, I am looking to monitor my project with a LIS331 using the USB-6008 dac. Would this dac unit be acceptable with this accelerometer?

swong46,
I would recommend using a USB 63xx series DAQ device. You might also be interested in the USB 8452, which is a dedicated I2C and SPI device.
I can also put you in touch with some of our sales engineers, who would be the most knowledable about your options. Shoot me a PM if you're interested, and I can give you a number to call.

Turnaround/Shutdown Process implementation using PS/PM modules

We are a larger Size Fertilizer Industry, currently in the process of SAP Implementation. We carry out Annual Turnarounds each year for annual maintenance / overhauling of our equipment / machines.
The total numbers of maintenance jobs are around 1500. Each Job has an average 25 Operations. The Total duration of Turnaround is 15 Days max. Due to extensive number of jobs being handled in a very short time span, we require Planning with respect Job Execution and also related to material planning / Manpower / other internal & external services resource Planning. Moreover the Budget planning / control of the Turnaround is also part of our business.
The Planning of Turnaround starts 10 months before commencement of Turnaround. Starting from finalization of maintenance Jobs, material reservations, Budget Planning, Maintenance jobs scheduling in such a way to fit in all jobs within 15 days time span and develop a logical / technical viable links (relationship) between various operations within one job as well as between different jobs. Based on this relationship critical path is identified and activity Bar Chart is generated. The entire planned Project is then freeze as our target / base line and Planned S-Curve is generated. Before commencement of Turnaround, the material availability is ensured through monitoring of material procurement from Purchase requisition to Goods receipt.
Thereafter during Turnaround, the actual progress of maintenance jobs is monitored against the target plan on 12 hourly basis. Based on this monitoring we identify the activities lagging behind the Plan so that effective actions may be taken to expedite job progress. The daily progress is updated in terms of earned progress percentage. Moreover for management overview, Planned Vs actual S-Curve is generated.
IN SAP Scenario we are planning to configure our above process through PM / PS integration. Maintenance Work orders will be created for all jobs with reference to equipment Tag number to maintain history. Moreover, material and other resources will be attached to relevant orders / operations. Relationship between orders and their operations will be maintained. We intend to attach these orders Operations to PS Moreover we require bottom up scheduling using PS Planning board as mentioned below :
Operations       Order     Activity       Network Header       WBS element        Project
We find ourselves handicapped to incorporate progress in terms of percentages, although we have managed to get percentage by putting duration of work completed on order operations level. However, getting percentage progress through duration input will not serve the purpose. Please refer following example:
u2022     An operation is planned for 100 hours.
u2022     During execution, 50% job completed in 20hours.
u2022     Remaining duration should appear as 50hours not as 80hours.
u2022     On contrary in SAP (as far as we know), if I put 50 hours in operation to get 50% progress , this will reflect wrong information as 50% job has been completed in 20 hours.
Can anybody suggest a solution in either PM,PS or combination of both modules.

you will need to use PM/PS as follows
Create a Shut down project
Create network activities for scheduling your shut down project
Create PM orders - which could be corrective action, planned, unplanned or preventive
Assign the order headers to network activity
Now you can use the PS scheduling functionality (bottom up planning as you require) - you will also see the PM orders on the planning board
For confirmation of activites you should use the forecast hours and this will correct the POC
The POC can be rolled up using Progress Analysis for your S Curves
