LV2009 Epics Process Variables Alarm Values

Hello, I am using the epics server under LabView 2009. I wanted to be able to set the alarm values of these process variables such as hihi and lolo so I figured I would install the DSC module since that allows you to set those values under shared variables. I found that very few of these alarm values get transfered over to the process variables when you bind a shared variable to a PV. Low seems to work but high doesn't. Very strange.
Is this a bug?

After poking around a bit more I did find the following:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/7987
This seems to work fine and I was able to set up and epics IO server in my project. However, I can not figure out how to add this to my vi. I am assuming that this created a shared variable (attached is a screenshot) but when I try to add this to my project it won't let me. How can I call "Epics Client1" in my VI? Thanks.

  • Get a process variable's value to set a task's time constraints

    Hi,
    I want to have my task expiration times determined by a process variable (Data Object Artifact) that defines a task's "time to live".
    The problem is that I don't have visibility of the process variables inside the Time Constraint's Expression editor.
    Is there a way to get a value of a process variable inside a task without modifying the Web Dynpro associated with the task?
    Thank you,
    Pietro

    Hi Pietro,
    As the task is associated with the WD mapped to it, we will be able to access only the WD Interface controller context associated with it and also few other Task attributes.

  • How to get value of process variable in another flex form

    Hi,
    currently we are using Flex 3 for form development in LiveCycle ES workspace.
    We have got an "Assign Task" service operation. This service operation has got a process variable defined for "input" and "output".
    The service will be called in a flex form. When the process is called a task will be sent to a user.
    When the user opens this task another flex form will be opened. All these steps work fine!
    How it's possible to get the value of the defined process variable from the first flex form (which starts the process)
    to the flex form which will be displayed when the user opens the task?
    Thanks very much for your help!

    Solutions:
    -The 'proper' way for application specific stuff is to use a properties file, not env vars.
    -Use System.getenv(), only works for versions before 1.3
    -Use the java command line option '-D'
    -Use Runtime.exec(), similar to the way you suggested.
    -Use JNI.

  • Unable to access process variable value in the DXFA file

    Hi,
    I am using the On-Demand-Assembly solution accelerator to stitch forms. I am trying to access a process variable inside the dxfa file.
    This is the syntax i used: <c:forEach var="templateItem" items="${requestScope.paramsMap.templateList}"> The templateList value is not being fetched. The same code works fine if I hard code the items.
    paramsMap is set as the Parameters Map variable in the invokeODADocument service.
    Any suggestions on what I might be missing here??
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Vidya

    Vidya Kesavan,
    Just a shot in the dark here, but I think you may have a typo in "requestScropt.paramsMap.templateList" where "paramsMap" should be "paramsmap" in the context of the CSC template. That could be the cause, making it impossible for ODA to find the variable you're referencing. (I believe it's "paramsmap" within the CSC regardless of what name you have the Parameter Map process variable.)

  • Assigning value of note from attacments and notes to process variable

    Hi all,
    I am trying to get hold of the notes and attachments for a process, and I would like to get the title and text of a note and assign it to a process variable. How can this be done?
    I cant find anything on notes in the help menu only for attachments.
    Thanks in advance
    Sincerely
    Kim

    Hi Paul,
    Are we talking about the same type of attachments and notes?
    I am talking about the attachments and notes that you can add to a process (shown in Workbench under the user step - Attacments and Notes pane).
    I have managed to process a form and pull out the attachments (in a list variable), this list variable I have set as the attachment list for the first user step in the process and this gives an extra tab in Workspace which shows me the attachments that were in the form just attached to the process user step and not the PDF.
    I can also add more attachments if I want or even a note for the process if I want to.
    I have found a way to access the attachments in livedocs:
    Creating Processes > Designing human-centric processes > Document attributes for attachments and notes (I can not make a link, sorry)
    but I have no documentation for how to access the notes (which has a title and a body).
    The scenario I am trying to solve is actually quite simple, I want the user to be able to add his or her own note to a step (without adding a comment field on the form) and send out an email with that exact note as a part of the body.
    Like: "Form is not properly filled" or "Contact me on phone number xxx xxxxxxxx for clearing out form number YYYY".
    The point is that I cannot make a change to the form (it is legally bound to a specific design).
    I hope you can understand what I am trying to do.
    Sorry for the long post ;)
    Sincerely
    Kim

  • PI Control Error Between Process Variable and Set Point

    I've developed a PI program that uses measurements from a pressure transducer as the process variable to control air pressure released from a motorized valve. The program works great at lower pressures, but as the set point pressure increases the error between the process variable and set point increases. I've tried several things....adjusting the P seems to initially increase the overshoot but the process variable always settles down below the set point....tried adjusting the EGU min and max values but no real pattern develops with this. It appears as the process variable get closer to the max EGU value of 70000 pascals the error increases.
    I've attached three screen shots showing the process variable curve and setpoint value. The graph of interest is the one in the upper right hand corner.
    Any recommendation or advice would be appreciated.
    tks, Terry

    Kyle,
    First off....I appreciate your comments. No...there is no value is system represented as U16.
    Actually errors start to develop quite a bit before the maximum. If you look at the mid pressure.jpg file you'll notice that the set point (~28125 Pascals) and process variable (~25625 Pascals) are roughly off by about 2500 Pascals. Then if you look at the high pressure.jpg file you'll notice that the set point (~53000 Pascals) and process variable (~45500 Pascals) are roughly off by about 7500 Pascals. Therefore it appears as the setpoint pressure increases towards maximum the error tends to increase.
    I was curious about something....the set point value I'm inputting into the PID.VI , shown in the high pressure.jpg file, is from EGU to percent.VI. It would look exactly like the EGU to percent VI feeding the process variable input of the PID.VI with the set point value feeding the EGU to percent.VI input. Would I be better off feeding the actual set point value to the PID.VI input instead of percentage?
    Thanks, Terry

  • Process variable string into filename at Save service

    Hello,
    Does anyone know how to put a string into the Pathname Pattern (Template) property of a Save service (FileUtilsService - Write Document) ?
    What I'm trying to do is strip the /'s out of a date string and put that date into a filename. For example, 042208_Greg.pdf
    Instead I get d:\WMS\C0419\04\22\08\_Greg.pdf
    I want: d:\WMS\C0419\042208_Greg.pdf
    I have a Set Value service putting a form submit date (MM/DD/YY format) into a process variable called @stringDate. I am stripping /'s out of the date and setting @stringDate like so: /process_data/@stringDate <--- concat(substring(/process_data/xfaform/object/data/xdp/datasets/data/C0419/Approvers/Init iator/Date,1,2),substring(/process_data/xfaform/object/data/xdp/datasets/data/C0419/Approv ers/Initiator/Date,4,5),substring(/process_data/xfaform/object/data/xdp/datasets/data/C041 9/Approvers/Initiator/Date,7,8))
    At the Save file service, I am using @stringDate in my Pathname Pattern (Template) to create the filename: d:\WMS\C0419\{/process_data/@stringDate}_{$/process_data/xfaform/object/data/xdp/datasets /data/C0419/Approvers/Initiator/CompletedBy/Name$}.pdf

    Hi Greg
    You've done a great job getting this done with xpath.
    It looks to me like you've done everything right - what's not working - are you getting an exception, or is the file being saved with the wrong name?
    There is a nice little DateFormatter component here, that might make things a little easier/flexible.

  • Process Instance : Update Process Variables with Java API

    Hi,
    I need to set a lot of process variables in a java service that is executed in a process but can't find the way to do that.
    Is it possible to modify the value of a variable from a process instance with the JAVA API ?
    I didn't find this type of function (for example with the ProcessManager API).
    Thanks,
    Will

    Could you place your logic in an executeScript service?
    You can use native Java there.
    I have had good luck getting values in and out of process varaibles with the get... set...
    this is a very simple example.
    import com.adobe.workflow.pat.service.*;
    String allowLogging = patExecContext.getProcessDataStringValue("/process_data/@allowLogging");
    patExecContext.setProcessDataStringValue("/process_data/@errorActivity", "Save Doc XML");
    patExecContext.setProcessDataStringValue("/process_data/@errorMessage", "SystemException");
    if (allowLogging.equalsIgnoreCase("true")) {
    System.out.println("@@@@ Save Doc XML @@@@");
    System.out.println("@@@@ SystemException @@@@");
    }; // END allowLogging

  • How do I manipulate process variables within sql?

    Hi,
    I am working with Oracle 10gR2.
    my main problem is to indicate a problem within the execution of a SQLPLUS.
    I saw in this forum that there is a bug and the return code will be ignored.
    So it was suggested:
    As a workaround you can define processflow variable and bind RESULT_CODE parameter of Sql*plus activity to this variable. Then you can define transition from
    sqlplus activity with custom ("complex") condition (like PF_VAR_RC=2 etc.).What exactly shall this mean?
    I am now on the way to solve this by manipulating the process variable within SQLPLUS. But how can I access this variable and manipulate it within PLSQL?
    Many thanks
    cheers Daniel

    Hi Daniel,
    even with this "bug" it is possible to get result of execution SQL*Plus activity:
    - SQL*Plus command exit 0 produce SUCCESS return code in SQL*Plus activity
    - SQL*Plus command exit 1 (or with other non zero value) produce FAILURE return code in SQL*Plus activity

  • Initial a process variable of PDFSignatureAppearanceOptionSpec

    I got a problem in set configuration parameters for Sign Signature Field activity. In this activity, there is a field call Apprearance Option Spec. We can not set it in literal value as we want it configurable without changing the Process. So here we use variable. We create a process variable of type PDFSignatureAppearanceOptionSpec. In SetValue activity, we try to set all the fields of this variable. But the problem is most of the fields in this variable are not trivial, they have some class type, TextDirection or AppearanceType, it is hard to set the value for those fields in XPath Builder. Do you have any idea to initial a process variable that is PDFSignatureAppearanceOptionSpec type?

  • Process variables populating on adobe eForms ES2

    Hi all,
    I've an adobe process with an output integer process variable called StepID and i made a form and want to populate this variable on the form, i've made a WSDL data connection and found the variable in the invoke response but when i put this variable on the form to be bound i found no value of it on the form although the variable has a value in the process.
    thanks so much for your time and effort.
    BR

    Hi paul,
    sorry for my late reply, yes i bound the datafield as output , also there is no security on the web service and unfortunately it is not on the public domain it is on private server in addition i didn't call the click event on the invoke button because the WSDL is already invoked from a JAVA servlet also i don't want to invoke it from the eForm just i want to know how i can bind a field in the eform to a process variable even if i don't want to use WSDL data connection if there is another type of connection or variable type or something.
    Thanks so much paul for your help.

  • Third party process as inventory value

    Dear Experts,
    Kindly need help for third party process.
    We have third party process which triggered from Sales Order. This Sales Order will automatically created PR. PR will be convert into PO.
    The issue is we would like to have goods in Sales Order (or Purchase Order in next process) as inventory value when receiving goods.
    Can third party process be treated as inventory value when receiving it?
    Thank you in advance.
    Best Regards,

    In third party process your customer gets the goods directly from your vendor.
    You only make a statistical GR ("phantom" GR) in the system, the goods are physically received by your customer and your customer's inventory will increase after your customer's GR and not yours. Knowing this your question doesn't make any sense I think.
    If your third party process is not a real third party process and you receive the goods physically and after that you sell it your customer you can use individual PO scenario.
