Is possible to give a 5V input to the umi 7764 connector blick for the limit switch inputs

I am using a umi7764 connector block for my 7344 controller. My motion control hardware provides me a 5V output in case the limit switches are enabled. But the umi 7764 connector block connections for the limit swithces are in such a way that it doesnt get any input, instead it has to be directly connected to the limit switches.Is there any way to come around this problem so that the limit switch inputs read the 5v given out by my motion control appplcation

If your drive has individual outputs for the forward, reverse, and home switches, then you could connect these to the their respective terminals on the UMI. You will need to either disable limit functionality on one component (controller or drive) or make sure the limit behavior for the devices does not conflict with each other. It probably is best if the controller handles the limits, but this will depend on your application.
If the drive only has one output to indicate that one of the switches has been activated, then you have fewer options. In this case, you should probably just use the limit protection on the drive and poll that single output with another input on the UMI.

    Is it possible for the next IOS 6 update for the music album art to display on the homescreen as a backround image when music is playing?

    It does, under certain circumstances. If you are playing music and lock the phone or it locks on its own, when you wake it up, the album art will show. It also shows as the background if you are in the music app. If this is not exactly what you are looking for, you can submit feedback to Apple about this feature at www.apple.com/feedback.

    Using an  iPhone wall charger for the iPod is fine.  You can also use an iPhone cable for the iPod.
    The term " iphone's charge battery" is not really clear.

  • HT204053 I would like to have one apple ID and sign in for the Australian Apple Store and for the New Zealand Apple Store without it asking me to switch stores. Is this possible?

    I would like to have one apple ID and sign in for the Australian Apple Store and for the New Zealand Apple Store without it asking me to switch stores. Is this possible? If not can I setup two stores (one in each country) using the same email address and same password (both and / or either)?

    An iTunes account can only be used in one store at a time, and you need to be in that country with a valid billing address on your account for that country in order to use it there. An email address can only be linked to one account, so if you want two separate iTunes accounts then you will need two email addresses

  • Can not select a PDF file in the file uploader window after clicking the Browse... button for a file type input element.

    After upgrading to 5 (this worked in 4) I can not select a PDF file in the File Upload dialog that appears when I click the Browse button next to an HTML file type input element. The specific HTML element source code has the attribute: ACCEPT="image/*". I can select image files such as jpg, png, tiff, etc. But not PDF. This worked great in Furefox 4 and works in the latest version of Safari.
    The HTML code for the form element is:
    INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="file_1" ACCEPT="image/*" SIZE=35
    The File Upload dialog lists all files with PDF extension as dimmed and not selectable in Firefox 5.
    Can you help?

    Unfortunately we couldn't solve the problem. Our IT specialist checked it with SAP directly. SAP doesn't support the SAP KW solution anymore. Therefore we checked-in the document in ".doc"-Format.

  • Please choose a document name so the destination name is different for the different input files.

    I loaded a folder into Bridge, of files which I intend to reduce to 800 px using one of my own custom actions.
    Please note that I have done this successfully numerous times in the past.
    I go to tools/PS/batch/set:margie's actions/action:reduce to 800
    Source: Bridge
    Destination:Folder
    Choose/new folder/I name folder/create/choose
    The folder name shows after users:users name:desktop
    The problem is in File Naming. After I type in Document Name a name totally different from the folder name/OK,
    the attached window appears.
    I have to select document name in order to complete. So can't I give a name to the files? Thanks

    The problem is in File Naming. After I type in Document Name a name totally different from the folder name/OK,
    If you use an action for resizing based on existing filenames it is not needed to change the document name but just leave it as it is so the files will be save resized and in the folder you have chosen/created.
    When you need to have an addition to the filenames just leave the first field with document name and change the second field (default: extension) to whatever you wish and as last field choose 'extension'.
    e.g.
    field 1: Document Name (If you leave this as it is it reflects the current filename)
    field 2: document name (fill in an underscore "_")
    field 3: 3 digit serial number (adds 001 and further after the underscore)
    field 4: extension (either lowercase or uppercase depending on your needs,I prefer lowercase, but don't change the field name. This puts the existing file extension at the end)
    The example field that is showing above the option fields is a bit distracting because it keeps showing 'MyFile' but that is your existing filename.
    Personally I have a save as to destination in my actions recorded to dedicated folders with the resulted size and I simple run those actions without creating a folder in the batch window, just select the dedicated resizing action.
    When done I move the result to a new folder using Finder, it is just another way of working but the above given example should also work for you.

  • What are the 4 analog inputs of my umi-7764 (on the analog input terminal block)

    I would like to known what are and how connect the 4 analog inputs of the anolog input terminal block of my umi-7764. I am french, so if you want to answer in french, it will be easier for me .

    Sébastien,
    Selon la carte de contrôle d'axe que vous utilisez (7344, 7334 ou autre), vous pouvez disposer d'entrées analogique.
    Si votre carte possède des lignes analogiques (voir la documentation de celle ci), cela signifie que vous pouvez les utiliser pour 2 choses:
    1. Utiliser ces lignes analogiques pour le feedback (retour en position) de vos servo moteurs. Cela veut que vous travaillez avec un servo, et que vous êtes en boucle fermé. (Pour informations, un servomoteur peut aussi asservi avec un retour en position).
    2. Si vous ne faites pas d'asservissement en tension ou que vous controliez un moteur pas à pas, alors ces lignes d'entrée analogique, peuvent être utilisées comme des lignes classiques. Pour les utilisez dans ce cas, vous devez cabler
    votre signal sur l'UMI (qui n'est qu'une interface entre vos signaux et la carte) de la manière suivante:
    - Le point chaud du signal sur "Analog Input X"
    - Le point froid du signal sur "Analog Inout Ground"
    De plus si votre carte de contrôle d'axe intègre des entrées analogiques, vous pouvez configurer leur gamme dans MAX (Measurement & Automation Explorer) le range de ces voies (+/-10, +/-5, 0-5 et 0-10 V).
    (Comme l'UMI est un bloc générique, assurez vous bien que votre carte possède des entrées analogiques)
    Finalement, pour lire le niveau de tension sur ces entrées, il existe dans le driver NI-MOTION, la fonction "Read ADC".

  • Not possible to give ratings to posts in Forums He...

    ... which is illogical to me. Many people post here because they can't find another area that suits the topic and people take trouble to give very helpful replies, but don't get rewarded and therefore might get discouraged to continue to help. Look at the number of posts/threads that the mods have to shunt elsewhere, often to a sort of best-of-a-bad-bunch alternative.
    (Not that many people use the ratings anyway - very many helpful posts just get apparently ignored with a zero rating count.)
    These forums really do need a shake up. Although there are some very helpful and friendly people aboard, the way the forums are set up is just clunky and badly-oiled, which makes them sort of awkward and un-user-friendly  to use.
    It's been mentioned before by many people including me, but nothing gets done. I'll probably be banned now for being repetitive. If so, bye all, it's been nice knowing you. I'm only trying to be helpful and improve the forum experience, and follow Ian Livingston's advice to speak up when I'm worried.

    Hi Pasha_Selim
    Thanks for the post.
    The reason there are no ratings in the Forum Help & Suggestions board is as follows:
    “You’ll also note that we’ve turned our rating system off for the Forum Help & Suggestions forum.  While we value your participation in this forum – please keep the suggestions coming – we agree with the feedback we’ve heard that ranks should primarily be based on help related to products and services.”  (taken from the Rankings announcement)
    As ratings have an influence on rank movement it was decided to remove them from the Forum Help & Suggestions board.
    If someone has posted in the Help & Suggestions board with a query that is related to BT products and services then the mods will move it to the correct board.  When the post has been moved into one of the main boards it is then possible for ratings to be given, so anyone providing help can still be awarded a rating. 
    I agree that use of the ratings system is a very easy way to say thanks to those providing helpful answers and I would love to see more use of it.  If anyone wants to help promote this system why not add something to your signature to alert others to the ratings system, e.g ‘if you think I’ve been helpful, say thanks by clicking on the star to the left of this post.’
    Thanks for the feedback about people finding the best place to make their post – with this in mind I have posted an announcement in the Forum Help & Suggestions board which explains the purpose of this board and what type of thing should be posted here.

  • Modbus Ethernet Slave seems to fail when the Master query information simultaneously for more than 16 Coils or Discrete Inputs.

    I'm developing an control application by using the Modbus TCP/IP for communicating with the host computer.
    I'm using the Modbus Library for LabVIEW
     (http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/niepd_web_display.display_epd4?p_guid=F1582737BACF5CA8E0340003BA7CCD71&p_node=DZ52363&p_source=External).
    The LabVIEW MB Ethernet Slave seems to fail when the MB Ethernet Master
    query information simultaneously for more than 16 Coils or Discrete
    Inputs.
    The Modbus Application Protocol Specification (http://www.Modbus-IDA.org) state that:
    1- The function code 0x01 'Read Coilsis' is designed to read from 1 to 2000 contiguous status of coils in a remote device.
    2- The function code 0x02 'Read Discrete Inputs' is designed to read
    from 1 to 2000 contiguous status of discrete inputs in a remote device.
    To test the behaviour of the LabVIEW MB Ethernet Slave I have modified
    the 'MB Ethernet Example Slave.vi' by adding more Coils and Discrete
    Inputs. I have added up ONLY to 20 Coils and 20 Discrete Inputs.
    By using the 'MB Ethernet Example Master.vi' the answer to the MB query
    is correct for the first 16 Coils or Discrete Inputs. Starting from the
    17th Coil or Discrete Input the MB Ethernet Slave doesn't give any
    answer.
    By shifting the start point address the answer remain correct for the first 16 Coils or Discrete Inputs.
    I have tested the slave by using also a third part MB Ethernet Master and the behaviour is the same.
    1) There is a reason for this behaviour?
    2) There is a Modbus Library for LabVIEW that satisfy the  'Modbus
    Application Protocol Specification' managing from 1 to 2000 contiguous
    status of Coils or Discrete Inputs?
    Thanks,
    Asper

    I have the same problem with the MB Ethernet.
    I need 40 Outputs.
    The first 16 work perfectly. The next 8 coils do not work, The next 8 work, The next 16 do not work,The next 8 work,The next 24 do not work And work for the last 8. Conclusion, to activate the 40 outputs, I needed 88 coils.
     Because 48 coil, do nothing Can someone help me and i cant implemet the jim solution

  • I have an iPod classic that syncs my entire library, I'd like to buy a smaller iPod, a nano maybe for the gym. Can I use the same library or do I need to set up a new library for the 2nd iPod? Is that possible? I mean for one to have 2 iTune librarys?

    In other words, no. You don't need another iTunes Library for your new iPod
    Another iTunes Library, that's only if someone elses music is mixed in with yours and you want to create another Windows user account with their music in it.
    The iTunes Library is the master vault containing all your content, from there you create playlists or smart playlists specially tailored for the smaller iPod's storage requirements.
    For instance if the iPod can hold only 2,000 songs, then you create a smart playlist based upon those rules/limitation. Plus what type of music you like.
    You have a incredible degree of control with smart playlists, they update automatically so you only set the conditions for what goes into them. Including content from other created playlists and smart playlists.
    Then, when you hook up the smaller iPod, it has it's own sync options, "all of your music and playlists" or "only select playlists"  So you use the second option to select just the smart playlist you tailored for the new iPod.
    When you hook up the iPod Classic, only it's sync options are used, not the new iPod ones.
    I hope I explained it better this time.

  • A possible solution for the folder exclamation or folder! problem

    This worked for Windows XP. Don't know if it will work for the Mac but it may.
    Three days ago my wife’s iPod, 4th gen 40gb, stopped working. I got the folder exclamation icon (or folder! as some have described it). I hooked it to my laptop and had no joy with it. The system (XP) would see it sometimes as a removable and sometimes as a hard drive. Disk Manager saw it a couple of times but it always took about an hour for it to show up. I messed with it about 5 hours the first night and then decided to take it to the Apple Store the next day. The guys at the Genius Bar had the same problem, this time on a Mac. Told me it was out of warranty and that the best I could do was find someone who could repair it. I’m a tech and I don’t want to mess with it but I’m not going to pay someone $200+ to replace what is essentially a laptop hard drive. So I kept plugging away and researching on the net. I’ve seen a lot of posts concerning the icon as well as a few concerning the partitioning of the drive. I’ve even seen where some people are advocating opening the iPod and shaking the drive which is never a good idea. Nothing really seemed to help so I kept working on it myself.
    I did find a solution and it takes a bit of time. It involves deleting the current partition and formatting it again. Since I’m using this on XP I had to format the partition as a Fat32. In order to do this I had to use the Knoppix operating system because Microsoft limited XP’s ability to format Fat32 partitions to 32GB. If you have an iPod that is less than 32gb you may be able to just format it using XP. I also couldn’t get XP to delete the partition so using Knoppix worked out very well since it has a program called QTParted on it that works like Partition Magic. Knoppix is free and does not have to be installed. It runs entirely off of your CDRom drive. If you have about an hour to try this I’d be interested in whether it works for anyone else.
    I believe the problem that most people are having comes from the fact that the Fat32 file system is not good for keeping a “clean” hard drive. It tends to leave bits and pieces around and if you update a lot it can affect the hard drive’s performance. I know that Restoring using the updater is supposed to fix this but it appears that the updater software does a quick format. That won’t always fix the problem. By following what I did you will blow away the existing partition and create a new one and format it to the Fat32. This effectively makes it a “clean” hard drive.
    Before I walk you through this I just wanted to say that I’ve purposely blown my wife’s iPod away 4 times to make sure that this works. Works like new now and did so after each time I blew it away. You should have seen her face when I did it.
    The things you will need and need to do are:
    CD Burner (you need to be able to create a disk from an ISO Image
    Blank CD
    Download a copy of Knoppix 4.0 from http://www.knoppix.com
    Download the current version of iPod updater http://www.apple.com/iPod/download/
    Make sure your system can boot from CD-Rom (Check your system docs)
    About an hour of your time
    1. Using your software of choice, burn the Knoppix image to your CD.
    2. Place your iPod in Disk Mode. You do that by resetting the iPod and , on 4th gen at least, once it resets immediately hold down the Select+Play/Pause buttons. You should see it say Disk Mode at the top of your screen. Not sure how to do that on other iPods but I figure if you’ve gotten this far you will be able to figure it out.
    2. Shut your system down and place the Knoppix cd in your cdrom. Make sure your system will boot from CD
    Note: If you are using a laptop you may not be able to use the mouse by default with Knoppix. You can try to enable it when you first start Knoppix. You do this by typing the following at the Boot: prompt.
    Knoppix pci=irqmask=0x0e98
    If that doesn’t work for you then you may need to hook another mouse to your laptop.
    3. Once Knoppix is up go to the K button (located like the start button on XP) and go to the system group. You will see a program called QTParted. Start that program.
    4. On the left of the QTParted screen you will see the hard drives on your system. One of them should be your iPod. It should say something like /dev/sda1. Click on that device. In the bottom on the left side for Drive Info I was given the information that it was an Apple iPod and the capacity. Don’t know if everyone will get that but it stands to reason that you should.
    5. You should now see the iPod’s partition information on the right side of the screen. I don’t know about anyone else’s but my wife’s had 37mb free and that turned out to be important. Make a note of any unallocated space you may have and keep it for the next step. Highlight the partition and then delete it. Once deleted you will need to go to the upper left corner of the screen. There is a button there to Commit changes that you have made. Click on this button and wait for the process to end.
    6. Now to create a new partition. In the right panel right click again on the drive. Select create partition. It will ask you what type of partition you want to create. Select Fat32 and where it gives you the option for the partition size, use the slide bar to leave the amount of space free that was unallocated in step 5. The reason for this is that when I first partitioned my wife’s I used all of the available space and the iPod didn’t like it. Once you have the size set hit OK (or whatever it is to continue). Go again to the upper right and hit the Commit button. Wait for the changes to happen and then shutdown your system, remove the Knoppix cd and then boot again as normal.
    7. Once your system has rebooted start the iPod updater. Once it asks you to plug in your iPod connect your iPod and you should be able to Restore it.
    As I said I did this 4 times to make sure it worked and each time both the updater and iTunes saw the iPod with no problems.
    At this point you should have your iPod back up and running. I apologize if I haven’t been very detailed here but I’m at work and typing this from memory. I wanted to get this out now while I’m thinking about it because I’m getting ready to go away for a couple of months and won’t have time to do this at home.
    Let me know if this works for anyone.
    Windows XP Pro

    mythic: You do NOT have to use FAT32. You don't even have to delete and recreate the partition. All you have to do is format the hard drive of the iPod. That's it. Your procedure will work even if you format the new partition as NTFS.
    But don't take my word for it. Try it yourself.
    I've done this exact same thing a hundred times, and I never used Knoppix to do it. All you have to do is:
    1. Force the iPod into Disk Mode as described here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651 (note that there's a different procedure for 3G and older iPod's!)
    2. Start the iPod Updater (on an XP box). Having the Updater open will prevent iTunes from auto-launching and trying to screw around with the iPod.
    3. Connect the iPod. It'll show up as a normal drive letter on the PC (if the PC crashes at this point, that's a Windows specific problem, not an iPod one).
    4. Use the Disk Management tool (located in Control Panel->Admin Tools->System Management) to format. Doing this as NTFS is perfectly fine. Do not do a quick format.
    5. After the format, go back to the updater and hit Restore.
    It works every time. I've posted this like a thousand times, but nobody ever seems to pay attention.
    Why does it work? It's simple, really. The Updater's Restore process is broken if there are bad sectors in certain locations. Formatting the iPod's partition like that causes it to do a scan for bad sectors. That's why the format takes so long (quick format skips this scan). The reason NTFS works fine is because one of the things the restore process actually does is to rewrite the iPod's partition table, and in the process it converts that NTFS space back into a FAT32 space. So really it makes no difference what that partition is, Restore will overwrite it anyway.
    For information's sake, what the Restore process actually does is to write a disk image onto the iPod's drive. This disk image itself is tricky, but the Restore procedure is not particularly complex. You can even extract that image and write it to the iPod yourself in Linux using dd. That works just as well.
    Anyway, when the drive won't write to a specific sector, then the Restore program freaks out. Formatting will remap the unwritable sectors and fix the problem. It's the bad sector remapping that's important here, not the partition layout or the filesystem type. Fix the drive problem and the Restore will work.
