LabVIEW: how to route time base to counter source using 6602.

How do I route the 80Mhz internal time base on a 6602 card, to the source of any counter using LabVIEW? I can only see the option for an external time base, and drop down from source only allows me to select source pins or RTSI lines? I am using the DAQ Assistant!!Message Edited by ddudge12 on 06-08-2005 09:37 AM

ddudge12,
I haven't ever really used DAQ Assistant, but I *think* that the drop-down menu you mentioned is for selecting the Sampling clock, which is different than the counter Source. There doesn't appear to be a way to select a source signal in the DAQ Assistant -- it seems to expect you to wire a signal to the counter's default Source pin.
You'll need to use a DAQmx Channel property node to select the 80 MHz timebase as a source. Attached is a screenshot of a very simple example that will count up as high as a 32-bit int can go, rollover to 0 and continue counting up, etc. It'll take a little less than a minute to rollover if all is working correctly.

How to remove time zone offset when we use a number as a relative time variable?

Hi everyone!
I've a small doubt in using a number as a relative time. If I change the display properties of a numeric to relative time, it takes default value "5:30 AM", may be because I'd set time zone to Indian time during installation ( India is 5:30 hours ahead of Greenwhich). I want it to take default value "12:00 AM'. Please help me how I do it?
( I can also subtract 5:30 hours and get the same. But I want that to have "12:00 AM" by default......?!)
Thank you all..!

As Ravens already stated, you are using ABSOLUTE time. Relative time can only be set to display hours, minutes, and/or seconds.

How to route Quadrature Encoder signal to CC1 using PCIe 1429 + IO extension card

Hi there,
i am currently trying to interface the Basler L304kc to the NI PCIe 1429 + Cameralink IO extension board
I want to operate the camera in Ex-SYNC level controlled mode. I would like to route external Quadrature Encoder signals (connected to the IO extension board) to the CC1 cameralink control of the camera
Currently, I cannot find this option either in MAX or the Camera File Generator.The L304kc camera file only provides pre-defined pulses, or MAX only offers "External","ISO","RSTI" options for the CC1 sources.
Is it possible to route the encoder signal from the IO extension board directly to the CC1 of the camera? Or is there a work-around?
Thanks!

Hi Alex,
I posted the following (similar) text to the support center but I think it is of common interest:
A) CL-card with ext. board. One can use the ISO, ext. and RS422 encoder inputs and also output cannels ISO and external.
There is also a SMB connector corresponding to the ext. channel 0.
B) with MAX one can define what kind of signals should be routed to CC1 to CC4. As I learned from
this side one cannot use MAX or the Camera File generator but has to do this manually in order to use RS422 encoder triggering!!!
C) on the other side there exists function to route and control signals explicitely, for example
* imgSessionLineTrigSource2 -> what is this good for then? All your manuals are saying that this is done in MAX or the camera file by defining what signal drives the correspondung CC ine?? On the other side there is an example in CVI that does not work ("Trigger Each Line From Encoder") (at least it does not work with the PCIe1430).
D) Can one implement the CC routing from MAX or the camera file manually with the following functions
* imgSessionLineTrigSource2
* imgPulseCreate2
* imgSessionTriggerDrive2
or does MAX use hidden functions ore mechanism to control the CL Cards?
E) I can use one single line to setup scaled encoder triggering
* imgSessionLineTrigSource2(iLS_ZK1_SessionID, IMG_SIGNAL_SCALED_ENCODER, 0, IMG_TRIG_POLAR_ACTIVEH, 0);
but this only starts to work if I reset the encoder position to zero by sending this to the CL card, i.e.
* imgEncoderResetPosition(SessionID);
AND only in positive counting direction!
If I just run though the zero position without a position reset I do not get ExSync on CC1????
Is the information where to route the Scaled encoder to coming from the camera file? Why cannot I simply and explicitely route the scaled encoder
signal to a certain CC line? Why using all those different approaches?
F) now if in addition to E) i use
* imgSessionTriggerDrive2(iLS_ZK1_SessionID, IMG_SIGNAL_EXTERNAL, 0, IMG_TRIG_POLAR_ACTIVEH, IMG_TRIG_DRIVE_SCALED_ENCODER);
to drive ext. 0 (SMB connector) I can see exactly this behavior on the scope. No signal until I reset the encoder counter. Then I get signals as long as the image sequence is running. After the recording the signal disappears.

How do I generate two finite pulse trains using counters on PXI-6251

I'm trying to use Counter 0 and Counter 1 on the PXI-6251 to generate two finite pulse trains. But, I get this error: "The specified resource is reserved. The operation could not be completed as specified." See attached example.
Inside the disabled box is what I'd like to run on both counters. I stripped things down to creating the task, starting, and stopping. I then started to add things to see what my problem was. The timing VI seems to be what causes me issues but I don't know why.
My end objective is two identical pulse trains with one delayed by 5us, which I figured would be easy to do in the initial delay. I tried both in a single task and as separate tasks with no avail.

Hi SirMutt,
Creating a finite pulse train requires
two counters. What’s really happening is that one counter is creating a
continuous pulse train while the other counter applies a finite pulse to “window”
the pulse.
What you want to do is correlated DIO. I’ve
done a search on our website for “correlated DIO” and have come up with a few
resources. Hopefully that will help you get started.

How do you convert the encoder counts to RMP of the motor using a myRIO in LabVIEW?

My intent is to gain hardware interfacing and general Labview experience. I am using a myRIO to control a Pittman 8222 34V Brushed DC motor (Motor Specs).
I recently created a code to control the angle of this motor using PID, which was visually implemented using the black disc with a white tick mark on it (see attached picture: "IMG_2523").
I now want to control the speed of this motor againg using PID, but I am not sure how to properly convert the encoder counts to RPM of this motor. I have attached 2 screen shots of my block diagram and my front panel for reference ("Capture" and "Capture2"). In the front panel picture, you can see my "actual" speed of the motor is a very choppy signal when it should theoretically be a flat line. To get the RPM, I currently use a shift register to store the current count value (which I converted to deg, then to radians), and then subtract the previous run's value, then divide by the while loop sampling time (10 ms). This would give me rad/s, which I then wrote a subVI to convert it to rpm.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hi,
One thing you could try doing is verifying that the conversion from rad/s to rpm is working correctly.
This tutorial might also be helpful. It's not using the same hardware that you are, but goes through the general steps using PID control.

How to set up router as base station

Hi -
I've recently purchased an Airport Express for the purpose of playing music from iTunes on my stereo. I've plugged the AE into my wall outlet and hooked up cables to my stereo. The AE is now flashing amber, which I understand means that I still need to establish a connection to a network.
Because my desktop uses a DSL internet connection, I acquired and set up a Netgear wireless router. My goal is to have my AE (as client) communicate with my router (as base station) wirelessly.
I tried using Airport Express Setup Assistant, but it scans for a base station and tells me it can't find one.
When I try using the Base Station Chooser on the Airport Admin Utility, it asks for the IP address and password of my base station. This presupposes that I know how to set up a base station.
Can anyone help me set up my router as a base station?
Thanks
John

When I open up Network Connections, I do not see any
reference to a wireless network. When Netgear
configured my router, did they necessarily set up a
wireless network? If so, how do I find it?
The Netgear is either configured by the supplied Netgear configuration utility or via a web browser.
Check the manual on how to do this.
Also, when I open Airport Setup Assistant, I receive
an error message stating that my computer has no
wireless interface enabled or Windows isn't set up to
manage wireless networks.
In this can you will need to use the Airport Admin Utility rather than the Setup Assistant.
It tells me to either
enable the wireless interface and allow Windows to
configure a wireless network, or to configure the
base station using Ethernet.
Which of these options
should I be pursuing?
Using ethernet, plug the Airport initially into the Netgear router.

How to send data to labview code at run time while using with (or executing the sequence)the teststand

Hello
I am new to the Teststand.
I am using labview8.0 with teststand 3.1
I have developed some labview codemodules as vi's without using the teststand utility library pallete
Now i have to run them in teststand.
While executing them(as a sequence) in teststand,i need to enter the data to the labview code at run time.For this labview front panel should appear as GUI or popup (while executing).Is it possible to do this without using teststand pallete.
or i need to change the code with teststand pallete(i think it is difficult now to change the code)
Plz provide a solution to this problem
Also one more,how and where to use the 'pass by reference' option
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
see your other post http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=330&message.id=13914
Also, you can, specify to display the front panel of your VI when you specify your VI in your sequence file.
There are examples, for dialog panel using LabVIEW, in the examples folder of TestStand and on the NI Web Site.

How to call a stored procedure on time basis with out using sql job and GOTO

Hi,
I wanted to call a stored proc, on time basis ,
please tel me how it can be done with out using sql job , goto .
1) That is, is there any timer aviable in sqlserver.
q2) And which one is better GOTO or sql job.
yours sincerley

Raj, Check if my explanation helps you:
Your job runs every 10 seconds.
Lets say first time you are scheduling and running your job at 12:00:00 PM
Now your proc will start executing.
Say it got finished at 12:00:07.
Now the next schedule time is 12:00:10 PM.
The moment this time hits, the job will get invoked and start executing the proc.
Lets say this time it finished at 12:00:22 PM (It took 2 extra seconds)
This time the scheduled time is already gone (12:00:20 PM), thus it'll now run at the next schedule that is 12:00:30 PM.
Thus if anytime your job takes more than 10 seconds to run, it'll just miss those particular schedules overlapping with execution time. Otherwise you are good to go.
PS: A job is the best way to handle this, in your problem statement you don't need a job but that would be wrong. You have another way to do that, if you keep running your procedure all the time and the moment your timestamp hits a multiple of 10
seconds you can run your logic and then returning to the timer. But this is extremely wrong for a system. Even if your requirement is extremely transactional and complex, I would not suggest this. If the job is taking more than 10seconds (which it might if
your logics inside are complex), you should optimize your code and table architecture.
Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but they refuse. They cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions. Only the ladder is real.
The climb is all there is.

How to add Time Capsule to a Telewell ASDL Router

I tried to connect Time Capsule (2 TB a bit older model) to a Telewell ASDL Router and then run Time Machine through WiFi to Time Capsule. However, the only way I was able to make it work was to plug Time Capsule to the MacBook with an ethernet cable. When I tried to plug Time Capsule to the Telewell Router (with an ethernet cable) the internet connection of the router got disconnected. So I believe I am asking how to connect Time Capsule to the router, and if I need to do something in addition (i.e. is is possible to run two WLANs - the one from Telewell and the other from Time Capsule simultaneously?).
Thanks for your help!
Matti

Put the TC in bridge mode and plug it into the Modem.. it will work fine if you set it up before you plug it in.. I have given extremely detailed instructions here..
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5703308?tstart=0
Are you really using Snow Leopard?? If so the manual setup from 5.6 utility is a bit different but the overall information is still correct..
You can run two different WLANs without issues.. you must setup the TC to create a wireless network anyway.. do not try to extend or join the modems' wireless .. that is wrong.
It has to be plugged into the modem by ethernet.

How to setup TIme capsule with a DSL router step by step?

Hi All,
Does anyone know how to conncet Time Capsule set by step through a DSL router?
I already have a DSL router, but want to connect my time capsule to that router.
Do i connect it through ethernet?, and is it possible to have my time capsule as a different router at home with a different password than the DSL router?, if so how is that possible?, is going to have the same download/upload speed as the DSL router?
Please help, thanks

You simply bridge the TC.
Plug it by ethernet into the adsl modem router and it will work fine.
nd is it possible to have my time capsule as a different router at home with a different password than the DSL router?,
No, the TC will cause trouble if you set it up as a router.. it has to be bridged. You only have a single adsl connection but there are some ISP that allow a secondary pppoe login and some modems that allow it. It is pretty difficult setup. Ask your ISP as there is often a charge that is very high for the second connection. It will still share the same link so there is no improvement in speed, merely two different authentications sharing the same line. The TC can do pppoe client but has nothing very fancy about it.

How to measure time in labview?

Hello,
I am using PCI-DAS card for Analog Input and Digital Output.
In the Analog Input for the voltage measurement labview takes near
about 1 second.But i want to reduce that time...means it has to take
one reading only in some miliseconds and there is no loops nothing
complicated just simple functions r there and as i run the vi it shows
one voltage reading.
I dont know how to reduce time period in this case.
And another thing is that i am saying this 1 second as per my
watch.but i want Labview itself shows the total time taken for the
execution.
Anybody knows about it please mail me and post the answer.
Thanking You
Safdar...

In general AI, attached example should work (i.e. 6025E).

How to route the file, base on the file name without touching file content?

Hi All,
can you please provide me solution how to route the file based on file name with out touching file content.
Business criteria :
> One source directory having zip files with different file names
> File adapter have to pick the zip files and have to route it to different email addresses based on fist 5 characters of file name.
please provide possible solutions to route the zip files to target.
Regards,
Sreeramulu Konjeti.

You can use Standard context object FILENAME.
in receiver determination Put a condition based on standard context object FileNAME
In the receiver determination, in the condition channel, use the Technical context object 'FileName' for file adapter.
Follow the below path:
Goto Receiver Detrmination --> Condition --> Left Operand f1 Help --> select first option 'Context Object' --> 1 List will be popped up --> Select FileName for File adapter from that list
It will route the file based on filename.
You can use CP for contains pattern (u2248) in condition
FileNAME u2248 ABCFI*
