Measure the Frequency Of User Report Running

Hi Experts,
Currently I am working on the BW3.5 version. Currently we are having 70 reports in the system. Our client requirement to list out the reports which is not executed frequently and label that obsolete.
So I want to find out how many times a particular query has been accessed.Unfortunately, the BI statistics cube are not activated in the current server. So I cannot utilize the BI statistics cube option.
I tried working with ST03N as well with table RSDDSTAT but didn't get a clear picture. I am still amazed how people find this mode useful to gauge the frequency of use. Probably I am not interpreting the data well. Would preferably like to know who have used a particular query on a particular day.
Please through your thoughts on the issue. Thanks.
Thanks,
RR

Hello Nacho,
the output terminal of the AI Start VI will never be able to give you the actual rate when you use external clocking. It's only valid whenever you use internal clock (and the board divides down the master clock to get as close as possible to the desired rate). This is what you get at the output.
You can test this by using an example with internal clock and choose a "rare" frequency/rate such as 1621.5. The board will really sample at a similar rate, but not always at the exact speed you may choose.
If you want to calculate the frequency, you'll have to use counters and feed the encoder signal (CH A) to the counter's source (or gate depending on which method you use to compute the frequency).

Jorge M.

  • How to restrict the EBS end users to run only two same reports at a time?

    Hi,
    We are using EBS 12.0.6 and database 10.2.0.3.
    Is it possible to restrict the end business users to run only two reports at a time?
    OR
    Is it possible to restrict the end business users to run only two same reports at a time?
    Thanks.

    Is it possible to restrict the end business users to run only two same reports at a time?It is not possible.
    You can either make the report "incompatible" to itself (this means only one user in your company can run it at a time)
    Or not make it incompatible. (That means any user can run it any number of times)
    Incompatibility is a way of specifying which requests cannot be run under which circumstances.
    See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/A60725_05/html/comnls/us/fnd/incomp.htm
    You can use Hussain's suggestion to use Concurrent: Active Request Limit profile. You can set this profile value at each user level. But if you decide to set it at global level, remember to keep it a higher value for sysadmin kind of users that run scheduled jobs.
    Hope this helps,

  • I need to measure the frequency of a signal on Pin 39 (PFI 15) of a PXIe-6361 module.

    I need to measure the frequency of a signal on pin 39 (PFI 15) of a PXIe-6361 module.  All of the digital I/O pins are already assigned and in use.  The signal frequency range is 50KHz to 500KHz.  I have tried all of the sample programs for DAQmx Counter/Timer frequency measurement.  If I modify them to use my hardware, I get run-time errors with conflicts with resources already assigned.

    Hi Julia,
    Thanks for the response.  As I stated before, I have tried all of the examples available that apply.  There are only three and one of those uses two counters.  The two I have tried are:
      Examples/Hardware Input and Output/Counter Measurements/Digital Frequency/
          DigFreq-Buff-Cont-ExtClk-ArmStart.prj     and
          DigFreq-LowFreq1Ctr.prj
    These examples default to using what appears to be traditional DAQ hardware (Dev1/ctr0 and /Dev1/PFI0).  I changed the counter to mine (/PXI1Slot3/ctr3) and directed my signal source (PFI15 on pin 39) to the counter.  No matter what I tried would not run.  They would always compile but gave run-time errors ranging from resources already in use to “external trigger required”.  I have no external trigger source and, if I did, there is no indication of how to assign it to the counter.  NI has a very good X Series Users Manual that tells all of the great things you can do with the hardware, but there is NO CLUE how to do any of those things!!!!  I know that some NI DAQmx functions use hardware resources that they never tell you about.  I discovered that when trying to produce a single output pulse from a timer using counter #0.  (Which, by the way, no one at NI could tell me how to do it.)
    Measuring frequency should be very simple.  The unknown signal is routed through a precise gate to a counter, and then the counter is read.  NI DAQmx uses the opposite approach of using my signal as the gate and counting their internal source.  However, the examples would not let me use the internal reference sources.
    To answer your other questions, I am not performing any other measurements at the same time and the counter is not being used for anything else, period.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks again.

  • Can I measure the frequency from all PFI pins?

    I am using a PCI-6229 DAQmx card. I am trying to measure the frequency from pin PFI 5. I have been successful in measuring frequency from PFI0 and PFI1 but for some reason I am not able to measure on other pins. When I run the run the DAQmx Read sub VI it times out like it is not reading anything. I am using the same sub VI I created to measure 5 as I did 0 and 1 so I know that the VI is working. What is the matter? Are there only certian pins that I can measure? Would the sub VI time out because there is no signal on the pin?

    Hello Flowserve1,
    Thanks for your post!
    The basic answer to your question, "Would the sub VI time out because there is no signal on the pin?", Is yes if there is no signal coming into the pin your are bring a signal in on. It sounds like you were able to do a "frequency" measurement on PFI0 and PFI1? Usually the counter tasks are used for such a measurement. How are you performing these frequency counter tasks on your PFI lines? It looks like on the pin read out that PFI0,1 and 5 are for digital tasks and PFI routing lines. Are you internally routing your signals to other places? If you want to measure the frequency using counters, this board has two of them so use Ctr 0 and 1 gate or source to make these measurements. Let me know if any of this helps you and perhaps you could post a piece of your code that you are using to make your frequency counts.
    Cheers!

  • Wiring a SCB-68 to measure the frequency of a TTL pulse signal

    Sorry if this is a basic question but could someone please help me and tell me how to wire up a SCB-68 connector block (connected to a AT-MIO-16 DAQ board) so that I can measure the frequency count of a series TTL pulses (signal from photon counting). At the moment I don't understand how the PFI1-9 connections are related to the GPCTR0/GPTR1 counter connections on the block and how they're all realted to the source,gate and out 1-5 connections on the DAQ board.
    Ultimately I want to be able to put this measured frequency into a Labview program with a controllable gate period.
    Thanks in advance
    Nick

    You might want to search the Knowledge Base on the NI's Support Pages for "Cable Mapping for a 68 Pin Connector to a 50 Pin Connector". This should take you to a link that will explain the mapping of a 50way to 68way cable and subsequent lines you are looking for ( reference sub link 68F50M), I guess you have SH6850 cable connected from the AT-MIO16 card to the SCB-68.
    Please check out the information about the pin outs, that should help you work out which pins map to the counters, eg GPCTR0_source would be pin 37 on your SCB-68

  • How to measure the frequency of the data plotted on the waveform chart

    i have made a virtual instrument in labview that acquire data (say sine wave) into a spreadsheet file and also on the chart from the function generator. I measured the frequency of the data from the chart but it is coming out to be very less. How can i calculate the frequency of the plotted sine wave and also from the spreadsheet file.

    If you want to get an idea of the base-frequency of an periodic signal, you can measure the number of samples in between two maxima or in between two minima of the periodic signal.
    Multiply the number of samples by the sample-interval (1/Fsample in [sec]) gives you a rough estimate.
    FFT, I mentioned is one of the more advanced calculation-methods.
    The method calculates the spectrum from a waveform.

  • Help with measuring the frequency of a pulsing signal

    Hi,
    I am trying to use LabView to measure the flow from my ultrasonic flow meter. The meter sends a pulse for evey 10 litres of flow: I am picking up the signal in LabView without any trouble - it's basically a square wave that pulses at 10V and goes back down to 0V for the same duration.
    All I need to do is measure the frequency or period of the wave, but I have had no luck with any of the vi's. They seem to focus on the wave when it's either at 10V or at 0V and return the period as infinite or 0.
    I then attempted to program a sequence which returned true if the signal was =1 (the rising edge of the pulse), if true it would go to the next step, check again if =1 (falling edge), if true go to the third step and check if signal =1, and time that sequence, giving the period of the wave. Unfortunately this didn't work either.
    Any suggestions?
    Cheers,
    Liam

    Hi, I have the same problem - my LabView edition is Student so I don't think I can access them.
    Unfortunately the problem is still persisting. I have been working with someone who is quite experienced with LabView and he can't solve the problem either.
    There was some progress when I used the Trigger and Elapsed time .vi's to measure the time between rising edge pusles. Since the pulses were quite slow, by putting the period-to-flow conversion equation in, the flow could seen reducing to a minimum value as the elaspsed time increased to the full period. I have fitted new, more accuarate flow meters into he pipes which now send 100 pulses for each litre of flow. These flowmeters now pulse so quickly that it's impossible to see what the minimum flow value is to get the flow.
    If anyone knows of a way to select the maximum time value (i.e. the full length of the period of a square wave) that would be one solution to the problem. Any other suggestions on the best way to measure square waves would also be gratefully received.
    Thanks in advance

  • How do I make a VI to measure the frequency and power level of a transmitter using the NI 5660

    I am working on an RF project that requires me to measure and record the frequency and power level of a transmitted signal. I am using the NI 5660. I am quite new to Labview and the PXI, so I'm not so sure how to do this.
     I know I have to initialize the NI 5660 but I don't know what to do afterwards in terms of measuring the frequency of the acquired signal. I'm not sure what blocks to put together nor do I know where to find them. could someone please enlighten me on how I may understand what I need to do.

    Hi princess!     (it's funny writing that somehow)
    Have you considered the example finder?
    There should be examples on how to acquire and measure with the NI 5660.
    And there should be a block in LV that was delivered with the NI 5660 software, that does something like "acquire spectrum" or something like that.

  • How do i measure the frequency of a sine wave using a field point counter module

    I need to measure the frequency of the sine wave using field point. is it possible and if yes how. do i need to convert the sine wave signal to square wave. Please let me know.

    It probably would be easiest to convert the sine wave to a square wave with a simple external circuit and then use a counter module to measure the frequency. There is a shipping example in LabVIEW that shows how to measure frequency with a FieldPoint Counter module.

  • How can I measure the frequency of an analog signal?

    Hi,  I am trying to measure the frequency of VAC signal coming from a gas turbine engine at my university.  If I can get the values of frequency, I can determine the speed (RPM) of the engine.  I am fairly new to LabVIEW and I have been looking through manuals like crazy in order to find out how to obtain the frequency.  I have measured the signal with an oscilliscope and the highest frequecy will be about 1.5kHz.  I am currently using a USB-6218 and it can collect the voltage signal with ease, but it won't give be analog frequency so simply.  Can anyone explain a way for me to obtain the frequency values?  And if you could show or tell me in a very simple way (because I am not very fluent in LabVIEW yet), that would be amazing!  Thanks!

  • How to measure the frequency of a pulse being generated by a counter

    Hi,
    I am using labview 8.6 to generate 5 evenly spaced pulses for every 1 revolution of my shaft. However, I would also want to know the frequency of these pulses so I can determine the shaft speed. Since I am already generating the pulses using one of my counters, can I still tap into that or task another counter to measure the pulse frequency? If so, how? I have attached my code for generating the pulses and I am using an Ni 9401 module and an NI 9172 chassis. If someone can helo me modify the code to measure and tell me the pulse frequency as well, that would be really appreciated

    You'd probably get a more coherent answer if you didn't bounce around from thread to thread so much...

    how to measure rpm (5/20)
    How to measure rpm using shaft encoder and labview (5/23)
    This thread (also 5/23)
    I see you ignored my suggestion from the other thread--Kevin's solution is good too but using an encoder task offers more noise immunity (I think this is probably the cause of the problem you reported on the other thread).  You can fix it with digital filtering if you want to keep using a counter output instead of an encoder task.  Noise during transitions is pretty common for a quadrature encoder.
    A finite counter output task uses 2 counters on the 9172 (although you said 9174 earlier at one point--this wouldn't be the case on a 9174) so you wouldn't have one left to make your frequency measurement.  With the solution you have now, you can change to continuous to free up a counter if you don't care about outputing an exact number of rotation's worth of pulses (I'm not sure if you do or not--I didn't read through all of the various threads relating to this application to find out).
    For your actual question in this thread...  Have you tried running one of the frequency measurement examples?  From the code here I can't tell what you have tried (it just looks like a mangled version of the code Kevin gave to you in your other thread).

  • Measure the number of user connected to an Application

    Hi,
    How can I find the number of users connected to a weblogic application
    Can you help me understand how can I measure this parameter for a monitoring purpose?
    Thanks in advance,
    Nicola Attico

    Current Sessions is the current total number of open sessions for each application. Yes, you can use JMX or WLST within a script.
    The WebAppComponentRuntimeMBean mbean of your application provides this information through OpenSessionsCurrentCount attribute.
    For instance, in WLST enter:
    wls:/my_domain/serverRuntime/ApplicationRuntimes/my_application/ComponentRuntimes/my_app> cmo.getOpenSessionsCurrentCount()
    For JMX I suggest to you see [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs91/wlsmbeanref/core/index.html]

  • How can I measure the frequencies of two analog input signals simultaneously?

    Hi
    I have two AI signals, and I need to determine the frequencies of those signals. The frequencies range from 1-125Hz. I currently have a VI where I can sample one of the signals for 1 second (sampling at 300 Hz for 300 samples) and determine the frequency. 
    I need to read two signals at the same time and get both of the frequencies at the same time, but I can only figure out how to read them individually, so I can read one signal, then one second later I read the second one, then I read the first one again, then the sceond one, etc..  How can I read two signals simultaneously?
    Thanks

    "at same time", this depends on the hardware, you can do as has been previously stated just set up a 2 channel acquisition and you will get 2 sampled waveforms back.  Most hardware A/D as multiplexed and true simultaneous sampling is not done.  At 125Hz this is not an issue unless you are interested in very small phase changes between the samples.  just keep this in mind if you are expecting samples to be completly synchronized.

  • How to update the Dataset of a report running with universe?

    I am facing some issue in cross-tab.
    My requirement is , on click of any cell in cross-tab i want to convert  it into editable cell.
    Converting into editable cell is something which I achieved using below code:
    function onCellClick(e) {
      var text=this.innerHTML;
      var text = $.trim(this.innerHTML);
             $('<input />').attr({ type: 'text', name: 'text' }).appendTo($(this)).val(text).select().blur(
            function () {
                var newText = $(this).val();
                $(this).parent().text(newText).find('input').remove();
                var rIndex=$(this).closest('tr').index();
                data.data[rIndex]=newText;
                that.firePropertiesChanged(["data"]);
                //that.firePropertiesChanged(["visSelection"]);
        that.fireEvent("onSelect");
    I just modified the sample code.
    My report is  running with universe.
    Now I want to update the Dataset with this updated value.
    Can anyone provide any help on the same?
    Thanks

    Hi Michael,
    You got it right.
    Let me tell you the whole story:
    I have a weird requirement of creating editable grid. And the values which I edit into grid get saved into database.
    By using javascript I am able to edit grid cell item into HTML.
    Now after this I have two hitches:
    1. I am not able to get the updated cell values in Design Studio. I think this issues goes to SDK side. I try to create a external script variable and use this into Design Studio.But somehow it always throw blank.
    2.  I am not able to update dataset. I know updating the dataset permanently is not possible as its getting created from universe. But I just want to update the dataset so that any change in measure values also update total of that column.
    I start this thing this week only. So might be I am asking few stupid question. Please bear with me.
    Thanks
