Logical multiply instead of pause trigger

Hello all!
Can some one help me with gating counter with another one,
i want to produce modulated timebase, first counter generate pulses in continuous mode, and another one does the same, but with lower frequency,
for example f1 = 20Hz, f2 = 0,1 Hz. The first counter gated with another one, are there any option to temporary stop counter1 when counter2output is in logic low state, i want produce timebase OUT = [ctr1out] [logical multiply] [ctr2out], not pausing.
Alexander.

Hi AlexanderRyabov,
If you would like to produce a modulated timebase you should be able to achieve this by connecting the outputs of counter 1 and counter 2 to the source and gate of a third counter. The low frequency counter would be connected to the gate and would act as the enable/disable signal for the high frequency counter that is connected to the source. The result would be when the low frequency counter pulse is high, the counter 3 output will exhibit the high frequency counter pulses from counter 1 and when the low frequency counter pulse is low, the counter 3 output is low for the duration of the gate's (counter 2) low pulse. This is equivalent to a logical multiply of the two counter signals.
Here is a link on how to route the outputs of two counters to the gate and source of a third counter on the board you are using:

ApEx 4.1.1: update record in a view with 'instead of update' trigger

I created a form against a view. The view is complex enough which prevents direct updates. To incorporate the update logic I created an 'instead of update' trigger on the view. When I open up the form, do changes, and click 'Apply Changes' button I am getting the following exception
ORA-02014: cannot select FOR UPDATE from view with DISTINCT, GROUP BY, etc.
I understand that the standard 'Automatic Row Processing' process is trying to lock the record before updating using a cursor like
select *
from my_view
for update
and fails. Is it possible to bypass this locking while using the standard APEX processes?
I think I can create a custom PL/SQL process which would execute the UPDATE statement (at least, it works in SQL*Plus), but I would like to know if I can use a standard ApEx functionality for this.

Hello,
Sorry for delay.
I had found a feedback about trigger issue when restore SQL Database from a BACPAC file. Microsoft said the fixed will be available in the next major release of DacFx.
Feedback:
SQL Azure fires a trigger when restoring from bacpac
You can refer to the workarounds in the feedback. For example, if there is small amount of triggers on the database, you can try to remove the triggers and then recreate when restore from bacpac file.

Hi Varad and Andy,
Thank you both for your responses first..I was soo tensed since no one replied to my previous post fr 5 days..
Varad,

Instead of delete trigger rows deleted

Hi All.
Im using a few instead of triggers over a view. The view selects data from other tables and merges them together. This view essentially forms the parent of a few one2one relationships with other tables.
However my application doesnt know its a view (im using hibernate orm framework) - so when I delete this object which is mapped to a view, I get an error saying that no records where deleted. Also, if i test in sqlplus, i get "0 rows deleted" in response to a delete - which of course is true, but i want it to say 1 or some number of my choice.
How can i modify my "instead of delete" trigger so that the number for records deleted count returned to caller is 1, or some number i can define?
Here is my current trigger...
create or replace
trigger product_view_delete_trigger
instead of delete
on product_view1
for each row
begin
null;
end;
Thanks.

In regards to why Im using a view - its discussed here...
Crazy Union across 3 tables
The view im using is not updatable - it uses a union. I use "instead of triggers" to trick my application into thinking its a real table which is insertable. And this works fine.
Im having trouble tricking my application into think that the delete was successful, because the "instead of delete" trigger doesnt actually delete anything - which is what i wnat - but i want it to report back to the caller that a delete occurred.
I want the SQL%ROWCOUNT to be set to 1 or whatever. Perhaps this is not hte variable, but im hoping there is some variable I can set which is used to report back to the client as to how many records were deleted.
thx.

Instead of update trigger

Hi
I have a view, I like to create a update form for.
Someone have a sample how to use a "instead of update trigger" with a form?
I would like to have a report with a column link to the form, and the form use a "instead of update trigger" to update the row.
Best Regrads
Jesper Vels

Hi Jesper,
I'm not sure I understand your problem correctly but I'll have a go nevertheless.
I think you can accomplish this with standard out of the box apex functionality. 
You can create your report with a link to your data entry form which has auto DML functionality built in. I do not understand the need for an update trigger, based on what you have said. 
I think this link will give you an idea how how to accomplish the functionality your looking for.
Otherwise In version 2.0 (the only version I have access to at the moment - though should be the same in 2.2). Create a new page of type form and specify "Form on a Table with Report" in the next stage of the wizard. Work through the rest of the wizard and see whether what is generated fits your purpose or can easily be adapted to suite your purposes. 
Let me know how you get on.

Kris

DAQmx: Gating Pulses with Pause Trigger

I have an NI 9401 module in a 9171 chassis and would like to gate the output of one counter with the output of another counter. Counter 1 (the signal to be gated) generates a 3 Mhz signal and Counter 0 (the gate) generates a 10 Hz signal that is externally routed to Counter 1's Gate pin. I expected this would gate Counter 1's signal to produce the 3 Mhz pulse only when Counter 0 is high, but the wiring had no affect on the output of Counter 1, it still generated a continuous 3 Mhz pulse train. I found that some code is needed to get a counter to pay attention to the signal at its Gate pin (this post was particularly helpful) and that this can be done with the Pause Trigger property node. After setting up the node, however, I ran into this error:
Error -20124 occured at DAQmx Start Task.vi:2
Lines 4 to 7 of this port are configured for input. Cannot configure these lines for output at this time.
I'm pretty perplexed by this. The problem seems to be coming from trying to designate PFI 5 ("CTR 1 Gate" on the 9401) as the Pause Trigger source. If anything, I would think the error would be that lines 4 to 7 are configured for output, since those lines are grouped under CTR 1 which is configured as a CO channel to generate the 3 Mhz pulse train, and that setting line 5 as the Pause Trigger source is changing the configuration to an input. Searching for this error in the NI forums and Google doesn't pull up any troubleshooting information. I've tried to create a task to configure line 5 as a seperate digital input channel, but then I get the opposite error (Error -200125) saying that lines 4 to 7 are configured for output and cannot be configured to input, to make things more confusing.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. I'm concerned that I'm missing something obvious about gating pulses or configuring CO channels since I keep reading that one of the advantages of DAQmx over DAQ Legacy is that it makes signal routing easier. I'm using LabVIEW 2012 (32-bit) with DAQmx 9.5.5 installed.

Hi agoncalves,
I took a quick look at your VI and I see two immediate problems:
1. There is not guarantee that both tasks will reserve before either one starts. This explains your error and why it seems confusing. The 9401 is nibble configurable but you can't change the direction while the device is in use (why the reserves are important). The module powers up with both nibbles set to input. Your first task drives an output so it switches direction on one of them. When your task is committed (started) it locks in that configuration. The second task then tries to also drive an output but on the other nibble which is input and cannot be switched because the first task is running. The solution is to use the error wire to force the execution order (or use a flat sequence structure).
2. You'll run into problems with your gating signal unless you wire it into a separate input (and put both pulse trains on the same nibble). You can change that by setting the channel property CO.Pulse.Term. That's if you want to route your signal through some external circuitry and back in. If you are using the signal directly, you could just use it internally. Such as /cDAQ1Mod1/ctr0InternalOutput

I have just rented a film and clicked the menu button instead of pause. When I go back to the film to rent again it says I have already rented this go to settings and check for downloads. But there is no download option in settings?

It does... Apple TV has a problem with the assignment to the itunes account after updating. Restore to factory settings or unlog and news login to the itunes store helps to see the rented/downloaded film(s).

Edge counting with digitial pause trigger

Hi
I should write a program for edge counting with digital pause trigger in visual basic. I have found an example of using pause trigger in edge counting but it is written in C#.
Steps in the program followed is:
1) creating task
2) creating count edge channel objecy
3) configuring thr trigger ( where i have been strucked)
code in c # is:
taskname.triggers.pausetrigger.digitalleveltrigger ( source, level)
When i tried to look for trigger function and to configure it in Visual Basic, I have not found any trigger function to set/configure in the function library
Thanks

Hi there,
Here is the code in text format. That's pretty much all you need. I took the example code called CntDigEvents.vbp and added the following code before the start task function call:
    DAQmxErrChk DAQmx.DAQmxSetPauseTrigType(taskHandle, DAQmx_Val_TriggerType6_DigLvl)
    DAQmxErrChk DAQmx.DAQmxSetDigLvlPauseTrigSrc(taskHandle, "PFI0")
    DAQmxErrChk DAQmx.DAQmxSetDigLvlPauseTrigWhen(taskHandle, DAQmx_Val_Level1_High)
As for the C# code I am not familiar with C# so I don't think I can be a great help on that one.
myTask.Triggers.PauseTrigger.ConfigureDigitalLevelTrigger(triggerSourceTextBox.Text, gateLevel) This function is the main call for the pause trigger and all it is doing is setting the properties. triggersource should be along the lines of "PFI0" or "Ctr0" and gate level defines whether the gate level is "high" or "low)
How is the VB code going?

AO Generation using Pause trigger

Hi all ,
I'm trying to do an Analog Generation with my X-Series NI-6356 DAQ ,
My problem is that I want to make 5 tests each one with 200 points that reflects as a linear wavee for the AO.
I'm using DAQmxWriteAnalogF64 but this command is too slow 100 ms over USB!
And I don't have that time.
So I Want to use a Pause trigger.
I'll set a buffer of 1000 points and I want to make 5 tests:
test 1 - AO of 1-200 from the buffer
test 2 - AO of 200-400 from the buffer
test 3 - AO of 400-600 from the buffer
test 4 - AO of 600-800 from the buffer
test 5 - AO of 800-1000 from f the buffer
my questions are :
1. Is it possible ?
2. Is there any example I can use ?

Read analog trigger signal gated by digital pause trigger

Hi!
I want to use and analog trigger together with digital pause trigger. At the same time i want to see on the scope the analog trigger signal which was gated by gate signal. Is it possible? Can i somehow wire the gated trigger to one of the outputs of the board?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sergei_phys,
Thank you for the forum post!
I have a few questions about your post:
What hardware are you using? Is it NI or 3rd party? You mention using a scope, is that a NI piece of hardware/module?
In theory you can have a analog trigger to start the acquisition and a digital trigger to pause , but it depends of the hardware.
Thanks,

Does "pause trigger" have a status flag?

Hi,
I am using a BNC2110 with PCI6133 multifunction DAQ card. I am reading random analog voltage pulses on one channel for now, and using the "Pause Trigger" properties (on trigger property node) so that the read task only takes in samples from the pulses, and not samples of the baseline noise between pulses. This works ok. But is there a way of signalling when the pause trigger has actually started and stopped (at the rising and falling edges of a pulse, respectively)? I want to use these signals to index the collected data so that I know where in the data any one pulse starts and ends, and so keep all pulse data separate, but in one array.
Many thanks,
Oliver.

Hi Oliver
One thing you could do it to look for a timeout error to flag when a pause occurs. The time-out error code is -200284. If you set the timeout value to the minimum (1) you can keep checking for the timeout and set a boolean to true when a timeout occurs. So if the boolean is true you know you have a pause, if the boolean is false you know you are reading in the signal.
I have adapted the vi that you posted to do this and attached it below.
I hope this helps
Thanks

Anyway to change back to Logic 9 instead of X?

Is there any chance of getting back with the "old" Logic 9 instead of the Logic pro X? I really need all my plugins that wont work with the 64 bit that is X. Does anyone know if theres any chance of doing that change?
Dear regards
Robin

Robin,
Logic Pro 9 is not longer sold by Apple.
You may be able to purchase a used copy of Boxed edition of Logic Studio 2.0 which included Logic Pro 9 from somewhere like eBay however. Note: There are two versions of Logic Studio 2.0 The upgrade version and the full version. Make sure you purchase the Full version.
Note: You would not get a refund for your purchase of Logic Pro X and you cannot sell Logic Pro X to anyone else.
However, for the cost of buying/shipping Logic Studio, you could almost afford to buy VEP5 which would allow you to use all your older 32bit plugins with Logic Pro X... along with many other features VEP5 provides.
http://www.viennaensemblepro.com
One question though...
Which 32bit plugins are you using that you cannot find 64bit versions of, to use in Logic Pro X?

Import of .bacpac fails on view with instead of delete trigger

I'm using Azure Premium SQL.
When I export the database using the portal and blob storage and then immediately try to import it as a test to a new database (also using the portal) I get the error below.
Looking at the restored database, many of the views are not there (including the one listed) although that may be because it failed on this view during the restore.
The trigger seems to be working just fine in the original database. It just won't restore from the bacpac.
BTW, I notice in the original database before backup, the trigger says "DELETE
FROM alndata.AptChangeLog", not "DELETE alndata.AptChangeLog"
Thanks.

Time machine restarts instead of pausing when I stop backing up

I am using time machine for the first time on my new imac 2012. When I am doing something computer intensive like video editing, I want to pause the time machine. It is on its first backup which will take 3 days. Apple says that if you click stop backup, it will pause and then restart where it left off. WIth me, it goes right back to the beginning.
Why? What can I do about this?

I am not sure about the term snapshot. Maybe that was how it worked in the past.
I have actually solved this one.
First, I get it that it might work better without intervention... but I needed to turn it off and it didn't make sense that it started over.
Turns out.. It DIDN"T start over. It just looked like it did.
The little bar went back to the beginning and didn't restart at the place where it stopped. Underneath it said 1 MB of 721 GB and started climbing. What I didn't notice was that originally, it was out of 950 GB!
So it WAS resuming where it left off. It would have been much clearer if the bar began again at the same place as it was and the numerator and denominator were the same. Instead, it started the numerator at zero but there was a new denominator... set to where it had left off.
Apple is supposed to be intuitive. Chalk one up for non-intuitive. Having said that, the result is what it should be. If you stop the backup, it doesn't go back to the beginning and start again. It resumes without admitting it did!

The Oracle database doesn't support the returning clause for database views using instead-of triggers. ADF BC inherently includes the returning clause, if in a relating EO you have the refresh-after-insert or refresh-after-update property set on for an attribute.
Hope this helps.
