Looking for simple waveform filter

I am using E series board using single ended input to collect 16 channels of constant value data, (ie 10volts). The data has a small amount of noise and outlying data points which I need to remove. I am attempting to implement a simple low pass filter. I attempted the Buterworth and FIR filters. The code I have attempted based upon the help examples unbundles the waveforms, filters the data, and rebundles the waveforms. This produces a discontinuous waveform when ploted. Addtionally the filtered data looks like a sine wave with an amplitude ranging between zero and the bias of the constant input data dependent upon the input parameters fo the filter. I'm looking for an example code that filters a constant signal with outlying da
ta points and small amount of noise. I cannnot use a average because the outlers are all on one side of the average value and will bias my data.
Thanks for the assistnance

Brian,
Can you try a running average using shift registers? With this, if the latest point is over x% outside of the running average, then do not include it. Since your signal is "constant," then frequency filters will probably not help you. See the attached example in LabVIEW 6.0.2. The interesting part of this example is that you need to know what your expected value is. If this is unknown, then one must do a bit of statistics (probably through histogramming) to get an initial average value.

  • Looking for simple timeline/calendar screenlet/widget.

    Good day gentlemen,
    I'm looking for a simple screenlet or widget for linux that is a calendar, but designed to be more of a timeline of past events than a reminder of future events. For my specific purpose in this case I'm trying to lose weight. So I'm seeking an application to record my previous weight and other notes about what i ate, and how much and what kind of nutrients i had that day. I would like to keep it in a calendar or timeline like format. Something easy to the point where if my buddy asked me how much i weighed last week or what i did last week, i can simply click on the date and all my notes appear about my weight, and what i ate, etc. Also simple to input data like clicking on the date and entering a note about that day. Something easy to use and sort of integrated into the desktop such as a screenlet or widget, so I don't have to open up a separate window to view these records. I did a little research and was able to find a few things, Rainlendar being one of them. But I feel most of what i found are way more complicated for my purpose. Would any of you happen to have any suggestions on what application would most suit my purpose in its most simplistic form? thanks in advance for your kind and prompt response
    Sincerely,
    Sicariuxs

    There are, apparently, quite a variety of tools just for this purpose.  here's one.  That was just the first one up from a search, I don't actually know anything about it.  But overall, I'd suggest you actually narrow your search as there are tools targetted specifically for such goals.

  • Looking for Simple JSTL Example

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm looking for an example of a simple Web application that uses "JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library" (JSTL) -- that doesn't use JDeveloper!
    I have OC4J stand-alone 10.1.3.0.0 on Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack2 with JDK 1.5.0_07

    Thanks Qiang.
    Yes, when I copy file "index.jsp" to directory "%J2EE_HOME%\default-web-app\testJstl.jsp" it works.
    I use the following URL:
    http://localhost:8888/testJstl.jspAnd this is the output I get:
    [Format modified to be more suitable to post on this forum.]
    Simplest JSTL
    CONNECTION = [Ljava.lang.String;@7348e
    USER-AGENT = [Ljava.lang.String;@10b8d03
    ACCEPT-LANGUAGE = [Ljava.lang.String;@157011e

    ACCEPT = [Ljava.lang.String;@ac8360 HOST = [Ljava.lang.String;@1e534cb
    [/pre]
    But I guess, since the JSTL related JAR files are part of the default Web application, there is no reason it shouldn't work.
    That's why you said:
    Let us do a sanity test first.So now what?
    (And, by the way, thanks for your help.)

  • Looking for SIMPLE time tracking app

    Hi all
    I'm looking for a really simple 'retrospective' time sheet app - wondering if anyone knows one?
    I've seen literally hundreds, but they all want you to 'click to start the clock' and then click to end it. This doesn't work for me, as I spend only about 25% of my time in front of the computer.
    What I'm looking for is something that I can put all my client contacts in, then separately link projects to those clients. Then at the end of each day I can quickly recall what I did during the day and assign time to each project.
    Most apps want you to assign time to each project as you go through the day, so its relatively painless to switch projects. However when you do it all at the end of the day, you don't want to keep entering the date, you just want to enter the start/end time, and what project it was. More like a journal entry I guess.
    Then at the end of the month it would print a report that groups the hours worked on each project so that you can review them and create an invoice (or in my case send to my accounts clerk who makes the invoice for me).
    Any ideas from anyone would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi shannonbray, welcome to the AppleWorks forum, which is intended for discussions of Apple's now-legacied productivity suite called AppleWorks.
    One could develop such a template using the spreadsheet or database modules of AW separately or in combo,but it doesn't sound as if that's your aim. I'm sure clever types have done such things, and perhaps shared them to the AWUserGroups and such, and I hope they note your post and reply. There are certainly numerous clever folks who follow this forum, and they may have pointers to other apps for you, but essentially I think you've posed the wrong question in the wrong place.

  • Looking for a 'step filter' plugin...

    Essentially I'm looking for a step based filter plugin that works in a similar way to Delay Designer, whereby you can define the cutoff/resonance/pan etc within a grid, thus giving complete control over where, when and for how long parts are filtered.
    This would be a pretty cool plug I think and I've looked before but not found anything. I like the simplicity of Delay Designer too so I don't want to get lost in features I don't need. Does anyone know of such a thing? I have Reaktor if anyone knows any user files, but I always find it a bit complex and painful. Otherwise I'm prepared to pay for something if it's decent.
    Cheers

    This has a 128 step sequencer for filtering and panning:
    http://www.camelaudio.com/camelspace.php
    Also the Ensemble "Vierring" in your Reaktor factory Library has fantastic filtering features as each of the 4 filter bands can be linked to it's own step sequencer plus many FX options.

  • Looking for Simple Archiving Catalog Software

    I  have previously used AutoCat. Simply drag and drop a folder and AutoCat copies
    the folder hierarchy and makes aliases of all the files. I keep this a catalog to
    be able to simply find all of my files by a search through the finder. It tells
    me the archive number of the disk where I can find a particular project. Very
    simple, very legant. Not supported in Lion so I'm looking for a replacement.

    Touvaly serves the same function as AutoCat. But it goes too far. It makes a "vrtual copy" of a removable disk. It is so hard to tell if you've pulled up real files and folders or the fake ones! - Somebody PLEASE bring back AutoCat!

  • Looking for simple touch-to-command utility

    More and more people are using laptops these days, but the number of utilities providing extra touch functionality seems still lacking. I'm looking for a simple utility that will let me bind (multi-) touch gestures to keybindings, and preferably also commands.
    For instance:
    2-finger swipe-left > Mod1-arrowleft
    3-finger swipe-up > exec dmenu_run
    Does anyone know of such a utility?

    Hey litemotiv,
    Easystroke will do that. I use it with my stylus/tablet to execute apps, commands, text, (ie: passwords, signature, etc), key-bindings, etc... While easystroke <upstream version> isn't multi-touch, there does happen to be a multi-touch version - but as a disclaimer ~ i haven't actually used the MT version. However, here is a link to the blog about it (english translation);

    It's also in the AUR;

  • Looking for simple movie player

    I am looking for a very simple player with the following characteristics:
    * all mplayer keyboard shortcuts (I imagine some kind of mplayer wrapper application)
    * buttons for play/pause + scrollbar/progressbar + mute + volume
    * ONE dialog with: path to a movie, path to a subtitle, choose subtitle encoding, subtitle font (eventually)
    THAT'S IT, nothing more.
    Codeine is close to being a perfect simple movie player, but the subtitle thingy doesn't really work as I'd like, from my testing.

  • Looking for simple search example using SELECT

    Can anyone link me to an example of how to create a basic search page where the search criteria is selected in a drop-down list (<SELECT> in HTML)?
    Here's where I'm coming from so you have a better idea of what I'm trying to do. I've created a search page by creating a method in my App Module java class using setWhereClause(), then dropped my view onto my web page as a read-only table, and finally dropped the method and parameter as a command button and input text field, respectively. This works fine, but I'd like to replace the input text field with a select box so that the users will not have to type in their search criteria. I'd like to populate the drop-down with data from a table, which will then be sent as the argument for the method.
    I can create a ViewObject that contains the data I need, but I'm not sure where to go from there. I don't know how to create the drop-down list or connect the command button to the list. (Ultimately, I'd like to have the search text submitted when the drop-down changes, but I'll settle for pressing the button for now). I've fooled with using the LOV component, but without any luck.
    Step-by-step would be great, but if you can point me to an example, some documentation, etc., that would be great too.
    Thanks,
    Andy

    You are correct, the problem was not what I thought it was. It was a z-indexing issue, which I've fixed. So the link you provided ended up being great for my purposes.
    Now, how difficult would it be to add the fadeIn/fadeOut jQuery behavior to this?
    Current code :
    function HideContent(d) {
        document.getElementById(d).style.display = "none";
    function ShowContent(d) {
        document.getElementById(d).style.display = "block";
    function ReverseDisplay(d) {
        if ( document.getElementById(d).style.display == "none") { document.getElementById(d).style.display = "block"; }
        else { document.getElementById(d).style.display = "none"; }
    http://api.jquery.com/fadeIn/
    http://api.jquery.com/fadeOut/
    I honestly don't know enough about jQuery to integrate the fade intelligently (or in any way that would actually work).
    In other words, when hiding an object, don't have it instantly disappear : have it fade out. When showing it, same thing : fade it in.
    This would be all kinds of awesome.
