Keithley 6487 Driver That Does Not Use IVI

Hi,
Does anyone know if a driver set has been developed for the Keithley 6487 that does not require the Keithley IVI? To date I have been using .llb packages to control instruments and would prefere to use one in this case if possible.
Many Thanks
Ben

How do i repair or recover data from a corrupt USB external hard drive that does not show up on my Mac desktop or disk utility

How do i repair or recover data from a corrupt USB external hard drive that does not show up on my Mac desktop or disk utility?
Last night i was using my external hard drive, for some reason the folder just closed and i couldn't find it on my desktop.
After googling solutions, i found it in the disk utilities, i clicked on the 'repair' button many times, but it said the 'error...' message.
So i ejected it to try again, now when i connect the USB external hard drive it doesn't show up on my desktop or disk utilities.
I really just want to either repair or recover the data on it because it literally has everything (documents, work files, photos etc) on it,
I downloaded an application to recover my files but it needs the USB to at least show up.recognise it which mine doesn't.
I know i should've backed it up on another USB, this definitely teaches me for next time to back up all my files.
Are the files lost forever or can i recover them by going to a shop or using a software?

Thank you for responding.
This might sound stupid since i'm not really knowledgeable with Macs,
but since all my files were moved from my mac computer to the external hard drive,
is it possible to recover those files through my Mac - like recovering deleted files?

HT201737 how do you close a thumb drive that does not show in finder?

How do you close a thumb drive that does not show in finder?

What do you mean by "Close?"
Eject??
If so, you could use Go to Computer to find it if it is not in the Sidebar or on the Desktop. Ctrl-click or Right-click on the drive and choose Eject <diskname>
Or, you could set it to show in the SideBar in the Finder Preferences, SideBar tab. Then, it would have an eject icon next to it in the Sidebar.

Login that does not use https

I don't have access to https sites from my current work facility.
Do you have a login method that does not use HTTPS?
Is there any way that I can link my metalink account and my OTN account, and get to OTN through my metalink account?

Okay ... I fixed this, Oracle XE finally convinced them to let us have access to https at OTN.

The timekeeping system we use does not like HTML 5 so what is the latest version of Firefox that does not use HTML 5?

We have been told by our timekeeping system provider that the latest versions of FireFox, Chrome and IE are not compatible with their websites at this time. I was told that it was because of the use of HTML 5 by the more recent versions of these web browsers. I need to download the most recent version of FireFox that does not use HTML 5. Can anyone tell me which version this would be?

It isn't "Timesheet Next Generation", is it? We had a thread on that here: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/961306 Websites using php and mysql stopped sorting drop down lists properly starting last week. Did something change?]
Unfortunately, HTML5 is a large specification with a lot of parts that has been implemented in pieces over the course of several years. It would be really helpful if your vendor could indicate what EXACTLY is not compatible and then it could be researched. Otherwise, you'd have to use trial and error. Either way, you would end up with an older browser that isn't safe to run on the internet. It could be time to consider other vendors...

Create timer function that does not use start-sleep

Hey all I would like to create a timer function that does not use the start-sleep command because this freezes my GUI. I've wrote the start of a function but it seems to move on before the specified time has finished.
Here's what I have:
$Global:timerCounter=0
$Global:timer = new-object System.Windows.Threading.DispatcherTimer
Function Timer{
param(
[parameter(Mandatory=$true)]
[int]$time
$timer.Interval = [TimeSpan]"0:0:$($time)"
$timer.Add_Tick({
$Global:timerCounter++
if($Global:timerCounter -ge 1) {
$Global:timer.Stop()
$timer.Start()
Then in my script i would like to call Timer -time #of seconds. It seems that when I call it the add_tick is registered and then started but it continues on with the rest of my script. Is there a better way of doing this without using start-sleep?
Thanks!

Okay the issue I'm having is that I have code after the $timer.start that I don't wan't to run till a powershell job is done. In all the examples I've seen it has to come to the end of the code then it starts the tick. So in your example it comes to the
end of of your code and showsDialog() then starts ticking.
So:
add-type -AssemblyName system.windows.forms
$form=New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Form
$btn=New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Button
$form.Controls.Add($btn)
$btn.add_Click({$form.Close()})
$btn.Dock='Fill'
$btn.Font='Lucida Console, 20.25pt, style=Bold'
$btn.Text=[DateTime]::Now
$timer=New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Timer
$timer.Interval=1000
$timer.add_Tick({$btn.Text=[DateTime]::Now})
$timer.Start()
$form.ShowDialog()
#I want to do other things here but only after the ps job has finished
Thanks I really am trying to figure this out.
Here is the code I'm working with I guess I'm unclear on how to order the timer and the rest of my code:
if($syncHash.mainCopy){
$syncHash.mainJobDone = $false
$syncHash.writeHost = $false
while(-not $syncHash.mainJobDone){
[System.Windows.Forms.Application]::DoEvents()
if($syncHash.writeHost -eq $false){
Write-OutputBox -Message "Copying"
$syncHash.writeHost = $true
$syncHash.inProgress = $syncHash.mainCopy | Where-Object {$_.State -match 'running'}
$syncHash.currentCopyTime++
}elseif($syncHash.currentCopyTime -ge ($syncHash.averageCopyTime * 2) -and $syncHash.collectionCopyTime.Count -ne 0){
$syncHash.Unusable += $syncHash.currentMainCopyMachine
$syncHash.computersNotForInstall += $syncHash.currentMainCopyMachine
$syncHash.inProgress = $null
$syncHash.mainCopyTimedOut = $True
Write-OutputBox -Type WARNING: -Message "$($syncHash.currentMainCopyMachine) is taking too long. Removing Job.."
Add-Content -Path $log_path -Value "$($syncHash.currentMainCopyMachine) taking to long to copy to"
Stop-Job $syncHash.mainCopy
}else{
$syncHash.inProgress = $syncHash.mainCopy | Where-Object {$_.State -match 'running'}
Write-OutputBox -Message "." -NoNewLine
############################# ############# So I need it to wait right here I have other code other than in this block ############# that needs to run $syncHash.currentCopyTime++
if(-not $syncHash.inProgress){
$syncHash.mainJobDone = $true

How do I create an executable for a computer that does not have IVI drivers

I'm creating an executable driver (based on the NI drivers) for a TDS 3054 intended for a computer that does not have the IVI engine. I would prefer to install as little software on this computer as possible. Is it possible for me to build the driver with the appropriate support DLL's without installing IVI on the user's computer? How do I do this?
Thank you,
Zach Oberman

Zach,
Since the tkds30xx driver you are using is IVI based, you will not be able to use it without the IVI Engine.
If you must build an executable that does not require the IVI Engine, then you will need to use a traditional LabVIEW driver or convert a VXIpnp driver into LabVIEW. Neither of those drivers would require the IVI Engine.
At this time the only TDS 3054 driver on NI's IDNet website is the IVI-based tkds30xx driver.
You may be able to obtain a traditional LabVIEW driver from

I want a quiet drive that does not light up the room

I need a quiet drive that does no light up the room. I use my imac as a media center and the last thing I want is a blue light lighting up the room.
Many have recommended the drives from OWC as quiet, but they have the blue light.
What about the ones from Lacie, Western Digital or any other recommendations?
iMac Intel 2 ghz 20 inch Mac OS X (10.4.8) 512 ram

WD My Book Pro.....does have the obligatory blue light.....but remains relativley dull if you do not install the Button Manager software.....which I didn't.
Quiet and fast.

Building an application that does not use any local program files or libraries

I need to build an application that will not use any local libraries or LabView program files(even if LabView is installed on the PC). I also am curious if anyone knows if there is a way to debug such an application(in it's compiled state).
Any help on these topics would be greatly appreciated.
-Nate
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello,
I am unclear on what you are trying to accomplish here. As the previous poster mentioned, if you enable debugging when building your application, you can remotely connect and probe the block diagram of the running executable. Executables use the run-time engine but could also access drivers or other run-times if using a specialized toolkit/module. This all depends on your application.

How to install a package that does not use DESTDIR?

Hi All
I am trying to create a PKGBUILD for a package called cantera. This package uses the standard "configure", "make", and "make install" process; however, "--prefix" is supported but DESTDIR is not used. Unfortunately, this package is very large (many files) and "make install" install with absolute path names. Is there any strategies for handling this situation? An example of another package that handles this would be great.
Thanks
Kevin

It doesn't work for me, I get the following error:
/bin/install -c ijs_server_epsonepl -c /var/abs/local/epsoneplijs/pkg/usr/bin/ijs_server_epsonepl
/bin/install: cannot create regular file `/var/abs/local/epsoneplijs/pkg/usr/bin/ijs_server_epsonepl': No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1
==> ERROR: Build Failed. Aborting...
So I have to create a folder called usr/bin in my pkg-folder, then it will work.
But this is stupid, can't makepkg create those folders by itself?
Hmm ok tried creating the folders and still the same error, here is my PKGBUILD:
pkgname=epsoneplijs
pkgver=0.4.0
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="a Epson EPL printer driver for ghostscript"
url="http://sourceforge.net/projects/epsonepl/"
source=($pkgname-$pkgver.tgz)
md5sums=('8bc16b9df5b2a4168abc773745b9b2d7')
build() {
cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
./configure --prefix=/usr
make || return 1
make prefix=$startdir/pkg/usr install
Whats wrong, I don't get it...

HT2518 how do you transfer video from a DVD based camcorder that does not use USB?

How do you transfet older video on tape and DVD based camcoder that do not have usb?
looking at buying a MacBook 15.4

I have done this for someone else with Tape Deck coax out through USB if you have installed a TV USB application such as Hauppauge WinTV HVR; recording with TV App which is rather tedious.
Check out these - you may find better ways to do it depending on camcorder.

I can not use the Acrobat DC Cloud. How do I get an Acrobat PDF Reader that does not use the Cloud?

The subject pretty much says it all.
I can not save sensitive corporate files on your Cloud.
Even for non-sensitive PDFs, I do not always have access to the cloud when I need to view or work with a PDF.
I need a non-cloud version of Acrobat Reader.
When Reader DC installed onto my system it must have blown away Reader XI.
After I uninstalled Reader DC, now I can't open/read PDFs anymore.
Also, I can't find a copy of Adobe Acrobat to install that isn't cloud dependent.
This is a problem for me.
Besides all that, NOW I get error messages every time I try to re-install Reader DC.
See below.
So, today at work, I can no longer open PDFs.
Thanks? NOT!
HELP!

Here, I finally have a solution.
Gotta love Google.
More helpful than Adobe so far.
Note: Clicking on the link below will immediately open the download dialogue box.

Can airport express be used to extend a network that does not use an apple airport as the primary base station.

I have a verizon fios cable modem that incorporates a wireless base station using 802.11n and wep 40 bit security. I decided that I could improve poor reception by using two airport expresses as range extenders. I cannot seem to configure them for this function. When I do a manual setup and choose extend a network, I get a message that says the network cannot be extended. I have been able to join the network, and I think they would work as clients, but I'm trying to use them in as additonal base stations to extend my network.
The primary base station, and the two airport express units are all within range of each other.
Now that I have the two units (purchased on sale from Apple this past week), the directions in the manual only include instructions for using them as network extenders with a primary basestation that is Apple? Is this the case?

Unfortunately, most non-AirPort routers are not compatible with Apple's implementation of Wireless Distribution System (WDS)...so it very unlikely that your non-AirPort router can be extended wirelessly with the AirPort Express Base Station (AX).
Your only option would be to connect the AX to the Verizon-provided gateway by Ethernet or use Powerline adapters to create a pseudo Ethernet connection between them. A wireless-only connection will not work.

USB Adapter's Use in foreign country that does not use standard 110 and

I am not taking my lap top on my trip to NZ but want to charge battery on IPod. Will the Apple USB Adapter work with an additional adapter for the different current and plug in that foreign country?

Yes, you can take the USB adaptor. New Zealand uses 230V. All you need is a plug adaptor so you can plug it into the socket. New Zealand uses the same plugs as Australia.
