Is it ok to hook up two voltage analog outs in serial?

ok... I have a FieldPoint FP-210... basically an analog voltage out, 0-10V out, 200mA per channel (with added external power supply)... my question is... can I hook two channels in series? Like the way I can put two AA batteries in series... and then double my voltage? and then control my two seperate channels and the sum of the voltages would be would I subject my load to?
thanks!
Solved!

No, you can't. The channels all share the common side of their outputs. If you tried to hook them in series, you would wind shorting out one output relative to ground.
The reason you can do it with batteries is that there voltages are floating. There is no common reference between the negative terminals of the two batteries.

Need two track analog out

How can I get a two track analog output from an Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro soundcard? I need to feed a digital recorder (Fostex MR-8) that only accepts analog inputs.

I tried doing that but I get only a slight hiss. It could be the sound card. We had a power outage that appeared to mess some things up. I cannot get Lin-in 3 to play at all. The recorder works fine so it must be the sound card.

I AM TRYING TO HOOK UP TWO MONITORS AT THE SAME TIME

I AM TRYING TO HOOK UP TWO MONITORS AT THE SAME TIME. I have had no success in figuring out why I can get an image on my TV and an image on my monitor (at the same time), but no icons, no start menu and no keyboard access. M y computer freezes as well when I try to do 2 monitors.

Hi,
Your machine has:
*Integrated video is not available if a graphics card is installed.
Radeon HD 6370D, 6410D, 6530D or 6550D Graphics (model dependent based on processor)
Supports PCI Express x16 graphics cards
Two DVI-D ports (Both ports can be used at the same time)
You can use TWO monitors with the right connections for two ports #3 above. You can get more information from the following instructions:

I want to hook up two monitors to MacBook Pro

I just bought a 2014 MacBook Pro with 1 Firewire800 port; 1 thunderbolt port; 2 USB ports. I want to hook up two monitors. Can I connect the MacBook Pro to a hub via Firewire800 port on laptop to Firewire800 port on hub? That would leave me two Thunderbolt ports on hub to connect the two monitors?

How do I hook up two 24 Apple LED with macbook pro 2011?

How do I hook up two 24" Apple LED displays with my MacBook Pro 2011

I would think that with only a single TB port the best you can do is connect only a single display. No chaining possible.
If a splitter can be found (didn't check if there is such a thing) then you probably could drive two displays but of course they would be mirrored.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
That monitor has got a lot of ports you can use. The easiest and cheapest way to connect the iMac to the Dell monitor is through a Mini DisplayPort cable, because you do not need any adapter.
Another way you have is to connect it through HDMI. In this case, you need a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and a HDMI cable

Two separate Print out while MIGO transaction

All,
While doing MIGO, internal batch numbers are generated .
While doing this transaction a GR slip is printed out with batch number , production date , expiry date , material code and many other informations with output type WE01.
Now business want while doing this transaction , a separate print out with only batch number , Production date and expiry date .
These two separate print outs should automatically come while MIGO transaction .
1. Is this possible ?
2. If possible , which output type will be for the 2nd print out .?
2. Any user exit required here?
Kindly advise.
regards

Hi Sandeep
1) Inventory Mgmt IMG->Output Determ..->Maintain output types
Copy WE01 and create a new output type ZWE01.
In processing routines, you need to change the program/form for your new output. Discuss with your ABAPer for this.
2) In 'Maintain Output determination procedure', insert this new output type in 'Control'
3) Maintain conditions as required
After this, use WE90 to print both outputs.
Best regards

I got problem on installing iTunes. When I clicked iTunes out, two windows popped out. One said the procedure entry point CFAttributed String Create Mutable could not be located in the dynamic link library Core Foundation.dll.

I got problem on installing iTunes. When I clicked iTunes out, two windows popped out. One said the procedure entry point CFAttributed String Create Mutable could not be located in the dynamic link library Core Foundation.dll. and one just said *Itunes was not installed correctly. Please re install I Tunes Error 7 (windows error 127) . I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. But either way cant work. I really need some of your help! PLS HELP ME!

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The error shares a similar pattern to that in the third box, so a similar approach should work. Look for CoreFoundation.dll in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support, delete it, then repair Apple Application Support.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Increase acquisition time in Cont Acq&Graph Voltage-Analog SW Trigger.vi

The NI example Cont Acq&Graph Voltage-Analog SW Trigger.vi takes one second of data. I need to take much more and can't figure out how to increase the acquisition time.
Is this something that has to be adjusted in one of the DAQmx task sub VIs?

Hello Richard,
Welcome to the forums. You post this question on the DAQ forums and that is the correct one to ask this so let keep it there and do not hesitate in posting back if you need more help.

Two side printing out of Acrobat?

does anyone happen to know how to get a two-sided print out of Acrobat X? i have a 295 page numbers help document i want to print out and i can't find this setting no matter how much i look. the Adobe forum seems to be somewhat "windows-centric" but i am going to ask there as well.
i also tried a "two sided printing" search in the Acrobat help and no results came up.
TIA for any help on this.

hi gents.
thank you.
i do in fact have a duplex unit the HP 8600 All in One. the driver section for this printer (accessed through the Print + Scan options in Preferences) shows up as "HP OfficeJet Pro 8600" and it has both the Duplexer option checked as well as the "Additional Paper Input Tray" checked. Driver version is 3.3.3. also, note that i DO print on two sides in some of my other software (including docs printing with/from iOS7 on my iPhone).
i guess i need to check to see if i have the correct driver (?) but can you help me with two things before we get there?
1. when i hit File > Print in Acrobat i get what looks like a "Mac" printer interface. it doesn't actually look like either of your screenshots (thanks) - even though i /think/ i have seen these before either on the laptop or on the desktop.
if i click on "Printer" in my dialog i then get a prompt (in this case with an adobe logo) that i have never understood: "The Print Setup dialog box is provided by the operating system. To ensure that you can use the full print capabilities of Acrobat, please set all print options from the Applications dialog box. Do you want to continue? Yes/No".
does anyone know what this means or what i am misunderstanding in all of this? seems totally bizarre to get the mac print dialog and then get into the Printer button and then get this option especially if i am running a print pulldown option from Acrobat...
2. i am having to /manually/ put paper tray with the proper paper size into my two tray Espon WF 7520. i want to say that i /don't/ have this problem with the HP 8600 but now that i think about it i am not sure i have ever tried the second paper tray on the 8600. HOWEVER, i /do/ see the Duplexer checkbox option in the Driver settings of the 8600 while i /don't/ see this setting in the Epson WF 7520.
does anyone know if this is likely (also?!) a DRIVER SIDE ISSUE with respect to not getting any of my software to print to the second tray on the Epson? i mean, if i sherlock holmes this i /could/ say that if i cannot print to the second tray it is likely a old or wrong driver issue or even a implementation that they did not build into the good driver - since i cannot get to the second tray from anything on anything? or would this be incorrect...?
THANKS

Hook-up Two USB mics to iMac

Is there any easy way to hook two USB microphones into an iMac through USB ports? Particularly if you're an idiot?

just plug them in but using them at the same time is another matter
pretty sure the general system only support 1 at the time so it's up to the app to support more
in my sounds settings I have
Internal Microphone
line In
soundflower 16ch
soundflower 2ch
Nokia BH-503 (this is the mic in my bluetooth headset)
Logitech camera (this is the build in mic in my extre logitech usb webcam)
all can be used by the system but only 1 at the time
if you want support for more then one then I believe you have to depend on the music recording app supporting it
