Is there a way of programmatically accessing fault/error/BIT information from the PXI-6723 during runtime?

In fact can you access fault information for all PXI cards? How do i detect that there is a fault with a board from within the software so i can report this to a higher level application?
Thanks
Martin

Hi Robert,
So in essence what you're saying is that if a component on the device fails there is no way to know this as long as the device is still communicating with the PC? It would appear that the Self Test function is a bit of a misnomer - it doesnt actually do what it says on the tin.
So which of the 2000 errors can actually be returned by this function call? I appreciate that there are a broad range of errors but I would like to know which one(s) can in reality be returned by this function. I need to somehow categorise the errors into whether or not the device is healthy so i can communicate this to our customers software (wo have no knowledge of internal NI error codes) so they can decide whether the board needs replacing. Of the 2000 error codes which of these could potentially relate to a hardware failure of some sort as opposed to a software configuration error.
I have found this thread which details some error codes on a NI 446X device (is there something like this for all errors on all devices?):
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/95328C2FAF9DA99A862576E200785C11?OpenDocument
Lastly where in the NI DAQ help references are the list of error codes and meanings as listed in NIDAQmx.h. For instance what does DAQmxErrorPALThreadControllerIsNotThreadCreator actually mean? I don't want to wait for the error to occur in my system before I get information on what it means - it would be useful to know and understand before I write the software what errors may occur on each device.
Thanks
Martin

You can use another iPhone (or iPad) to restore it too, or you can login to www.icloud.com (assumng you weer using iCloud) and export your contacts from there.

Is there another way to close apps other than deleting them from the multitask bar.....I have a small crack in the bottom of my screen and that part of the screen does not recognize the touch. :(

There's generally no reason to be closing them that way at all. The apps you see in the recents bar are just that, apps that you used recently. Most of them are doing absolutely nothing. The only apps that are really doing anything in the background are ones that play music and ones that are using location services. Just leave them be.
Best of luck.

Is there a way to move my calendar, reminders & iMessage apps from the dock to the menu bar?

Workspaces are stored as XML files in your user profile on Windows or the user library on Mac, in a subfolder called, strangely enough, workspaces.
You may have run afoul of the new "content grabber" in the center of a frame that allows you to move the content without changing tools. Looks sort of like a dounut, or the center spot on some SLR camera focus viewfinders. You'll either love it or hate it, and it can be switched on or off in the View menu.

Is There a way to programmatically extract global virtual channel info from max?

I have a group of DAQmx virtual global channels setup in MAX and I would like to be able to programmatically extract the physical channel information to be included with the data file. In the past I have been able to use traditional NI-DAQ channel utility vi's to accomplish this, but they only see traditional NI-DAQ virtual channels and not DAQmx virtual channels. Is there a group of vi's for extracting DAQmx virtual channel information? I'm using Labview 7.1 with a Windows XP OS.

Paul,
I can access basic properties using the approach you described, but do you know how to get the units from the global virtual channel? Say I had a general appliance for reading in load cells, and I wanted to have the axis labels in a graph show the units of whatever load cell had been selected.

Is there a way to exclude title, heading and bibliography text from the word count in pages?

I've just got the newest version of pages.
The word count includes everything, from titles to endnotes - including the numbers in my sub-headings.
I used to use open office where you could select a style i.e. 'body tex't, and get a word count that didn't include every single word in a document.
Is there a way of doing something similar, or reseting the word count to only 'body text' so I know exactly how long my essays are?
Thanks.

Unfortunately, no version of Pages has this fine-grained control over document components and their word count, so the answer is no, regarding user changeable settings.
Programmatically, I just told AppleScript to count the words of body text in a currently opened Pages v5.2 document. The count matched the Pages word count for the document. So, no solution there either.

Is there a way to unlock a picture or frame downloaded from the web so that it can be used in another document?

I occasionally need to copy a picture from a blog or website and modify it for my own use. No matter how I try to do this, generally in Pages or MSWord for Mac, I can't find a way to unlock the frame or picture so that I can copy just the picture. Is there some way to do this?

Right-click on the website image. Copy Image. In Word, Edit > Paste Special > As Picture (TIFF).
You may wind up with a black border around a white background. That is because the default Word wrap is Inline with Text. Right-click on your blank image, and choose a different Wrap Text submenu choice, such as behind or in front of text. Your image will appear in a borderless container.

Is there a way to create a file merge that updates from the original source file if changes are made?

I have thousands of PDF documents that are merged with other files. I'll give an example so it's easier to understand.
File #1 may be merged (or in a portfolio) with Files #2 and #3 but also in another merge (or portfolio) with Files #3 and #4.
If I update File #1, is there a way for it to automatically update both of the merge or portfolio files with the updated File #1? (File#1 would be replaced, same name and location).
I'm using windows and Adobe Acrobat Pro

You would need to add favorites to the WebHelp output prior to creating a CHM. You would need something along the lines of: http://www.wvanweelden.eu/product/favorites-widget-webhelp
But since it's in a CHM, I'm not sure whether you will be able to save anything from the webhelp output between sessions.
Kind regards,
Willam

When I sync my iPad and iPod is there a way to limit what goes on one, different from the other?

I have an 8 Gb iPod and a 16 Gb iPad. I'd like to be able to decide what not to sync to my iPod but would want on my iPad. Is there any way to do this?

in itunes, once your device is conected it will appear on the right hand side. click on it and then on the main window you can select at the top, apps, music movies, etc..
that's where you can customize you sync for that device, by checking unchecking boxes.
and this is only for that device. plug another and do the same. and another, and another, as many as you want.
hope it helped

Is there a way to deactivate PC's without doing it from the PC?

I had my work laptop and desktop activated to sync my IPOD and my Desktop at home. I got laid off and forgot to deactivate my workstations before they were wiped. My Desktop at home crashed so I wanted to activate my personal laptop but it says that I already have 5 activated. I would like to deactivate all 5 that are associated with my IPOD Classic Video and activate my laptop. If I can get my desktop going again I can re-activate it. Is there a way to deactivate everything?

Use the Deauthorize All command documented in this article.

Is there a way to delete and acess iPhone text messages from the computer?

I lost my iPhone and someone else has it. I would like to delete everything from it because there is no pass code on it. Is there a way to do that online?

Hi kennedysekanina,
You can wipe your phone if you had Find My iPhone enabled on it, and if it is still online. You would do this through your iCloud account by logging onto it at iCloud.com
Cheers,

My iPod was stolen yesterday. Is there any way I can delete my e-mail account from the iPod?

My iPod Touch was stolen last night. Unfortunately, on my iPod was my e-mail account, which was synced to the "Mail" app. I don't want the thief to be able to access my e-mail, so I changed my e-mail password on Gmail.
But is there anything else I can do? I'm scared that even though I changed the password, the Mail app will still be able to access my Gmail account.
The same goes for Twitter, for me.
Thanks so much for your help in advance.

You can wipe the iPod only if you had already set up ther FindMyiPod feature. and wifi is on and some other conditions are met.
Apple - iPod touch - How to set up Find My iPod touch
Change the passwords for other accounts on the iPod
Unles you have a screen-lock passcode, the conents of your iPod will be available. to anyone with access to the iPod.
Report it to the police.

Is there a way to print/convert a file to PDF from the Command Line? If so, how?

I'm trying to do something that I imagined would be really simple, but I haven't found a good resource on how to thus far. I'm trying to do something along the lines of this:
Acrobat.exe /print inputfile.xls outputfile.pdf.
Does anything like this command exists?

For automating Acrobat there are many interfaces for programmers, but no command line like that. (Microsoft declared command lines dead almost 20 years ago, but they've been an unconsionable time a dying).
