Menu ring

bonjour,
je voudrais utiliser le menu ring pour pouvoir choisir une option pami medium, high, low , null et off.
merci a vous,

Bonjour sirenne,
Il y a quelques facons d'accomplir cela en utilisant le "ring menu".
J'attache un simple exemple qui indique la selection choisi a travers le menu.  Dans l'exemple, le menu offre un chiffre qui corrsponds a la selection choisie, soit de 0 (OFF) a 4 (HIGH).  Examine le "block diagram" afin de voir ce qui se produit entre le menu et le "Case Structure" qui fait sa selection a partir d'un chiffre.  Le Case Structure peux selectionner des "booleans", chiffres ou texte.
Si tu nous offres une explication de ce que tu desires accomplir, on peux (possiblement) offrir de meilleurs conseils.

  • How can I change the background color of a menu ring?

    Hi
    Does anybody know how to change the background color of a menu ring??? (not the backround color of the first item, the background color of the list (remains always gray))
    thanks martin

    Try Preferences>>Colors>>Menu Background, but this will change ALL menu's background color.
    Hope this helps

  • Using a property node of a menu ring to generate a secondary address does not work in a subvi unless the subvi has been or is opened. Why?

    I am writing drivers for third party equipment using LabView 6.1. I am using the property node, digdisp.text, to get the item number of menu ring. This number is being used as the GPIB secondary address for the equipment. This vi is one many subVIs like it in a main vi.
    The only way the main vi works consistently is if I open all the subVIs, otherwise the secondary address isn't picked up and I get a EARG and ENOL error in NISpy and a GPIB write error in the Error Out cluster.
    I have attached an example of a NIspy capture of a failed attempt.

    Hi,
    EARG (4)
    Error Condition: Invalid argument to a function call.
    Description: EARG results when an invalid argument is passed to a function call.
    Possible Cause: The following are some examples: you call ibtmo with a value not in the range 0 through 17 (possible timeout values correspond to a table of values ranging from 0 to 17, where the default is 13, which represents a 10 second timeout); you call ibeos with meaningless bits set in the high byte of the second parameter; or you call ibpad (or ibsad) with invalid addresses.
    The reason you are getting the error is because not only is your secondary address invalid, but your primary address is also invalid. Lines 14 and 16 of your attached NI-SPY capture set
    the primary address (ibpad) and secondary address (ibsad) respectively. You need to make sure that you are passing the addresses properly to the subVIs using a connector. It seems like your programming when sending and receiving data (like the addresses) from your subVIs is not correct. You have to be sure to pass the data back and forth in the proper method using connectors.

  • Waveform Names to Menu Ring String Property Node

    Hi,
    I am extracting waveform data (names) to go into a menu ring as string data.
    It seems to work, apart from when you actually click on the menu there is no text (though you can successfully change it).  I am wondering if it is to do with the odd symbol in front of the name but not sure how to get rid of it.
    Hoping it is something simple but it is just knowing where to look with all the options available to you.
    Please see attached.

    Hi James,
    You were 99% of the way there all you needed to do was to pull that weird character from the string, I used the “match pattern” function to allow me to isolate that character and pass the resultant string into the text ring property node. A good bit of advice if you find a character in LabVIEW that you do not recognise or if you are unsure about spacing, right click the output string and select “ ‘\’ codes display “ this will show what the code representation of the string is and you can just feed that directly into the “match  pattern” function. I have attached my code (LabVIEW 2010 if you need in previous version please just ask) for you to have a look at. I have used a producer consumer template and selected multiple input channels from a simulated PCI 6220.
    P.S. I’m not sure where that character comes from??

  • How do I modify multiple Menu rings in a loop?

    I would like to modify the Strings of 15 Menu Rings in a loop as follows:
    Calculate new values
    Start For Loop
    Write new values to property node Menu ring(N) / Strings[]
    End loop
    I want to have one poperty node in the loop, whos' reference (or link) gets modified, to point to a different Menu Ring for each iteration of the loop. In other words, without having 15 different property nodes.
    Is it possible?  
    Thanks.

    You can create a reference for each control (right click->create...), then build these references into an array using build array, then iterate over the array in a for loop using auto-indexing.
    You can do the same for the arrays of strings, but because the arrays can probably have different lengths, you should put each 1D array into a cluster and build a 1D array of the clusters. This is because a 2D array can not have a different number of elements in each row.
    If you do this kind of thing often, you can save time on creating the reference by using this.

  • Using a "menu ring" feature on the front panel with event structures

    hello - right now i have many event cases controlled by many "ok buttons". i would like to use a menu ring on the front panel to save space from all those buttons, but i don't see how it will work with all the individual event cases. currently each event is tied to a single button, and the menu ring acts as one thing on the block diagram so i can't tie an event to a choice in the menu. any suggestions? thanks....

    Alternativley, you could use an enum control instead of a menu ring. It will name the cases according to the selection automatically.
    If you want to use a menu ring and strings, you could do something like in this image.

  • Using a menu ring to select DAQ device channel and indicator

    Hi,
    New user here. I am using the DAQ assistant with multiple analog inputs. I would like the front panel to have a menu ring where the user can select which channels are to be active. Also, this corresponds to a single graphical indicator. 
    Currently I have a VI that displays all channels each with its own indicator. I want to simplify the front panel so that a user can simply use a menu ring to select and focus on what he/she is interested in. Is it possible to use the Select Signals Express VI to implement this?
    Thank you!

    Drop the DAQ Assistant or convert it to regular DAQmx functions. The physical channel control does all that. Just look at the shipping examples.

  • How to make menu ring items visible through VNC ?

    I have an application that has a menu ring in it. I am compiling the app., distributing it to a remote system, and viewing it using VNC (3.3.7) . Everything works through VNC with the exception that I can't see the items on the Menu Ring when it is selected (if I select the Menu Ring through VNC I can see on the host computer that it does cause the ring to drop down). I saw the item in the discussion forum regarding disabling the menu animation - I did this and recompiled the app., but this did not fix the problem.

    In the VNC configuration, try "refresh entire screen" It really slows things down, but it gurarantees that every item is actually read.

  • Menu ring for tab control

    Hi,
    I use a tab control which got in the meanwhile more tabs than could still all be displayed simultaneously. That's why I would like to use a menu ring instead of the tabs in order to control which tab will be displayed in the forefront. However, I could not yet figure out how to change the "page label display" of the tab control into a menu ring. Have a look onto my simple example. I guess you agree that my current solution doesn't really look like a pull down menu although it works like one. Any hint how to improve the design?
    Thanks in advance,
    Peter

    Here's an example that is based on an example that ships with LV. I cleaned it up a bit so it would look mre like a "real" application. It's not great from the standpoint of code design (No error handling for instance) but it shows how these plugins could work.

  • Best way to implement confirm button in conjunction with menu ring selections

    So basically I have a series of menu rings that implement different cases of a structure that adjusts PWMs and other timing signals.  I have received a request to add in a confirmation button/dialog that pops up to make sure the operator wants to perform the selected operation.  I'm doing this on a PXI 7831R FPGA board and have run into timing violations in the past, so the less timing critical, the better.  If there is some way to offload this onto the host VI, even better.  Thanks in advance for the help.

    If there is some way to offload this onto the host VI, even better.
    Considering the FPGA does not support dialogue boxes or event structures, you will have to implement this into a host VI.
    My suggestion? Have a case structure with a latch boolean control on it (ie. update config). Your host VI will have an Open FPGA VI reference and run the FPGA this way. When you want to update the config, you can change your items, then hit 'update'. Include the dialogue box for confirmation if you wish. When this is done, it will use a read/write control to update the boolean 'update config' on the FPGA. Your FPGA VI will then read that case structure with the config data in it once(since it is a latched boolean) and then continue on its merry way.

  • Dynamically changing elements in an array of menu ring controls

    I have an array (32 rows, 5 columns) of menu ring controls.  When a menu selection is made in the first column of any given row, the contents of the menu ring for the subsequent columns (same row) may change.  If this is possible, how would you do it?  Thanks.

    For example, if I had a menu ring of 1,2,3,4.  I want to write some logic that says when 4 is selected, then menu ring in the next row changes to 5,6,7,8.
    A ring is just a number as far as LabVIEW is concerned, so the underlying cluster need only store numbers, not rings.
    In the example I posted in a linked thread, where controls are moved around on top of a table, you need only one ring control. Each time you show that ring, you can assign a new set of strings and values to it, using the Strings and Values property. You can decide what set of strings to show based on the existing data in the cluster, which will get updated each time you change the value in a cell of the table. Does that make sense? I don't have time right now to put together a more detailed example than what I've already uploaded in other threads, and it's only a small change to that.
    You update the menu ring at the time the user wants to select a value from it, not at the time the user changes the value that determines what set of menu items to show.

  • Database output into menu ring

    hello
    I'm doing a application where the input of a menu ring needs to be the output of a database query when the VI has already launched (real-time).
    my database for now, just has two fields: id and transducer name. i have no trouble getting those values from the db. my problem is that the menu ring input needs to be done using the property node (stringsandValues[]). I've tried to construct an array of 2D but i keep getting error of mismatched types.
    I really don't know what else to try. I would like if somebody could make a small example in constructing the type of data that i need or point me to somewhere where that is explained.
    thanks in advance,
    AdaoMonteiro
    PS: does anybody know how to convert a whole column of dynamic variant to data. In my program I'm converting each value at a time in a cycle.

    Just to clarify, the values are U16 by default, but of course you can change the representation if the ring. In this case the input should match the ring representation.
    You only need the "Strings And Values" property if your values are arbitrary. If they are just 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... etc. you can write the "strings" property as 1D array of strings. It's simpler.
    Anyway, to create the correct "String and Values" input, you could use something like the two alternatives in the attached image, the example at the bottom uses a 2D array of strings, transpose as needed.

  • Attaching binary arrays to a menu ring

    I have been playing around with the menu rings and can't seem to get it to do the function that I want.  I am looking to making a pull-down menu for some user options for different resoultion modes for an intrument.  So for example one option will be "2 eV" and with this option on I need to send 011 to a instrument.  Should I store it as a binary string or array, and how can I do that?
    Thanks in advance

    Do you always need to send a number to the instrument? If so do it this way:
    For the menu ring go to its Properties >> Edit Items. In this dialog you can enter the displayed text and the assosiated number. So yo can pair 2eV with 11. The terminal will give you the number. From your example I assume that the instrument will see the number as text with three digits. Use the "Format into string" function. Set the format string to "%03d" which will give a number with three digits padded with 0 to the left. Inthe example choosing 2eV will give 11 from the terminal and "011" as result from the Format function.

    Hi Veeru,
    you change the index of your array between 0 and 1 for every element. Do you want a binary display? If yes you switch the on color of your LEDs to blue and off to black. Then you can use the attached code.
