Motion with Soft Motion

Dear Sir,
I already have all the hardware necessary for my thesis comparing PID and Fuzzy logic on the axes Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS - logistics) using Fieldpoint 2000 and Soft Motion software.
I will follow the method of MODEL BASED CONTROL DESIGN PROCESS involving:
1. Plant modelling and analysis
2. Control Design
3. Simulation
4. Deployment
All step will be using the necessary toolit.
Please advice me especially on the right stimulus and response using System Identification toolkits
Each axis uses ac servo motor.
Thanks.
SADIAH

That is going to depend on which part of the system you are trying to analyze. Is it the softmotion with the Fieldpoint or the motor itself or both? If it was the motor the stimulus would be the voltage and the response would be the torque. For specific questions regarding the System Identification Toolkit I would look at that manual for it. It is located from Start>>Programs>>National Instruments>>LabVIEW x.x>>LabVIEW Manuals.

Living in Japan and I'm an American who just signed up with Soft Bank the phone service here and spent a TON of money on an iPhone. I can't figure out how to connect my bank account at home to my app account so I can Skype my family. Please help!!!! I don't have a credit card nor do they gove debit cards to foreigners here, or at least it's really hard so I'm using my bank at home and still have a debit there. My phone number is 8 numbers plus the country code which is strange! Another thing is I was given a phone email that I was told to use for texting but I'm not sure how that works!! It's so frustrating too because no one speaks English here and I'm not very tech savvy. God bless you if you can help :)

whichever app store you are connecting to, hyou need a credit card with an address in that country. Also, itunes gift cards must be in local currency too.

Is there a way to use eraser tool with soft edges?

Hi,
I am wanting to erase the edges of a rectangular object so that it blends better with the background, and am wondering if there is a way of doing this using the eraser tool with soft edges?
Here is a snapshot to illustrate further what I mean:
You should be able to see that above the curve on the left there is a gradient which extends to the top of the image. This is the rectangle which I have applied a gradient to. At the top of the rectangle the colour is the same as the background. What I am trying to do is to blend the left edge of the rectangle in with the background above the curve (below the curve there is a line so no blending is needed). The way I thought of doing this is using the eraser tool with a soft edge. I can do this in Photoshop, but I'm not sure if this is possible or the best approach in Illustrator.
I would be grateful for any advice on this,
Thanks,
Nick

I don't really understand yoru end goal. However, the answer to yoru Eraser Tool question is no. There is no such thing as a "soft edge" for the eraser tool.
The ways to blend objects in specific areas only would be:
Gradients with transparent stop
Gradient mesh with transparency nodes
Opacity masks
Fake it by blending to the same color as the background.

Your iPhone's iOS must be same or newer than the one in backups. In your case it is older so you need to update your iPhone and then recover it with backup.

I brought a new macbook air, but to my despair my friend touched the screen as soon as I opened it. Now, since it is brabd new I am very obsessed with the finger mark. I did clean it with soft cloth, but still I see the marks. Can any 1 suggest?

Is it suitable to play game with soft torch phone?

Dear all
I am interested to buy nokia c7. Is it suitable to play game with soft torch as like keypad. Please some can someone help me to answer me in details? Thanks

It somewhat depends on whether the game supports it or not.

Dead 2008 Mac Pro with Soft Raid - Diagnostic Ideas?

I'm starting to run out of ideas how to diagnose and fix my 2008 (March) Mac Pro: Dual quad-core Xeon, 2.8GHz with a 2TB four-HD soft RAID.
I think it died of a bad or partial or otherwise failed update of Mavericks. Since Mountain Lion, I think it was, soft RAIDs no longer support Recovery Disk partitions, but I have a Recovery Disk on a USB thumb drive, created on my MacBook Pro running Mavericks. The MacBook Pro can boot from it, so I'm confident that it was created successfully, but no luck booting from it on the Mac Pro.
Below is what I've tried along with the results I got, pretty much in chronological order. Any of you have any other ideas?
Experiment
Result
Normal boot from soft RAID
There's frame-buffer-memory garbage (largely quasi-random noise) at the top of the screen. The grey Apple logo came up offset to the right of the screen, with the spinning thingie below it. That spinning thingie (I forget what it's officially called) spins for about the right amount of time where it would start drawing the desktop, but instead it freezes up, and then I start seeing flashing orange stripes on the screen. The disk keeps cranking for a while.
Powering up in target-disk mode, over Firewire
Works normally, and I in fact successfully backed up the RAID that way to a 2TB USB drive, using the MacBook Pro.
Zapped the PRAM, then normal boot from RAID
The only change was that there is less frame-buffer-memory garbage at the top of the screen, and the Apple logo and spinning thingie is now centered again. Other than that, the failure to boot happens identically.
Boot with option key down and Recover Disk USB thumb drive in the front USB (on the Mac Pro itself; no USB hubs intervening).
It boots up showing icons for each of the four disks of the RAID, but does not show the recovery disk. (Doing the same on the MacBook Pro does show the recovery disk, and I am able to boot from it on the MacBook Pro.)
Booting with C, since I gather that that could also tell it to boot from a USB drive.
It did not boot from the USB drive.
Booting with D, to try to get it to run hardware tests.
No effect; still fails to boot in the usual way.
While connected to the MacBook Pro in Target-disk mode, running Disk Utility looking for disk problems.
No problems found. I have a Mavericks version of DiskWarrior on order. Should be here in a day or two.
I haven't tried any network boots, since I don't know of any network drives to boot from, and I'm not sure if it would do any good anyway.
I really doubt if this would work, but one ... conceptual ... way to replace the OS on the RAID might be to connect the RAID, via target-disk mode, and buy (again) Mavericks (or Yosemite?) from the App Store, and then tell it to install it on the RAID rather than the MacBook Pro itself. The problem with that, I imagine, would be that after loading it onto the RAID, it would presumably perform an installation appropriate to the MacBook Pro rather than appropriate to the Mac Pro. So, I'm not desperate enough to try that yet...

Just how did you create the recovery disk on the thumb drive? Maybe it is unique to the laptop.
"but I have a Recovery Disk on a USB thumb drive, created on my MacBook Pro running Mavericks."
If y can download the Mavericks installer on your laptop y can make a Mavericks bootable installer with

Are weak references cleared with soft ones?

Suppose a program holds both weak and soft references to an object X. Suppose the virtual machine clears all the soft references at once, making X weakly reachable. Is the virtual machine guaranteed to clear all the weak references next before normal execution resumes?
I ask because I am setting up an automatic interning system for immutable objects of a certain class that will guarantee that at most one object of a given value is reachable by the rest of the program at one time but will allow objects to be garbage collected if necessary. I need to decide what reference object(s) to keep to each interned object. If I keep only a weak reference, objects will be discarded at the whim of the virtual machine; I would prefer to keep them around longer so they don't have to be recreated so many times. If I keep only a soft reference, I am concerned that another part of the program might keep a weak reference. If the answer to my question above is "no", the soft reference could be cleared and the interning system could create a second object with the same value while the first is still accessible via the weak reference. It seems safest to keep both a soft reference and a weak reference and only recreate the object if the weak reference has been cleared.

Softs hang around until memory needs dictate theygo.
In my experience (Apple's 1.4 VM) this appears to be
as soon as GC is run, making them effectively
useless. Maybe VMs have improved.Not in my experience (Sun 1.4 VM). Soft references hang around forever. I had to stuff my class with bloat to make the instance larger, then change the VM heap size to get it to start collecting my soft references. Whereas the weak references are dumped ASAP. Inside scoop has it that finalizers will delay object collection a bit so be careful of that.
Also the only guarantee is that soft is cleared before weak when they refer to the same object. in my experience weak references go quickly. Like at the first GC when they are weak. You can not depend on any timing with respect to when the weak will be cleared. I don't think the spec even guarantees that soft will be enqueued before weak. Im not sure on that point.

How to do a background with soft circles(?)

Hi - I've seen this effect a lot. I don't know what it's called (maybe a name for it?) but was wondering if someone knows how to create this in CS4 PSD? See the image below - it's the soft circles background:
Funny thing is, you can actually create this effect optically with a camera and Xmas lights by zooming in from afar and then de-focusing the lens. But I'm hoping there's a way to do it completely in PSD.
Thanks.

Again, can't thank you enough for revealing the effect - bokeh.
Found a great tutorial in case others want to learn:

I also threw my own together after watching above. It needs tweaking but now I know how to do it:

Do you mean on a project you've saved with the distortion knob set a certain way? The project is not loading the way you saved it?
Or do you mean anytime you first open the compressor, why do you think it should be set to soft?

Movies with soft subtitles not playing

Hi there,
I'm using 2 Apple TVs to stream movies from my Mac Mini running iTunes. Until now movies played without problems (both with hardcoded and soft subtitles), but lately I've converted some HD material to MP4 (using Handbrake) and included soft subtitles (using Subler). These movies play fine in iTunes including subtitles, but when I try to play the movies on AppleTV the subtitles are not showing.
I have set the AppleTV (fw 3.0.1) to select the right language and tried all kinds of things with the subtitles, but the results are the same; everything OK on iTunes, no subtitles on AppleTV.
Anyone has good suggestions?
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Maarten.

...I had to see it to believe it, but it worked! Just renamed the file from *.mp4 to *.m4v and all is done!
Many thanks for the tip!
Regards,
Maarten.

Mirror boot disk with soft partitions

We've been investigating Solaris Volume Manager with Solaris 9 and have some questions. We currently use DiskSuite 4.2.1 to mirror our boot disks on Solaris 8. The fact that SVM is integrated into the kernel on Solaris 9 got us thinking. Here are some questions I would greatly appreciate answers to:
1. Is it possible to have your boot disk partitions (/root, /var, swap) be soft partitions and then mirror the soft partitions (so disk 1 you'd have 3 soft p's and on disk 2 you'd have 3 soft p's and create the mirror from them)?
2. What would the problems be with this? The major one we could foresee is not being able to see your /root, /var and swap partitions in the case of having to boot from the CD, but if SVM is in the Solaris 9 kernel, wouldn't that solve that issue. Is this a problem? Are there other issues/problems we're not thinking of?
3. Finally, is having your boot partitions be mirrored soft partitons a supported configuration from Sun?
Thanks,
Bob Jones

The reason the HDD is split into two partitions is so if there is an error with the OS, they can reinstall it without affecting the user files.
Makes sense in a way. But does this 'they can reinstall...' imply that you don't have the OSX Install DVD for your Mac ?
Cause you need that DVD for installing the BootCamp Drivers of it !
I do have admin, and I can re-partition my HDD, but I cannot touch the OS partition.
If I set it up like this: http://micmac95.fileave.com/HDD%20setup.png , by shrinking the USER partition, will I be able to install windows on the BOOTCAMP partition?
Personally I never tried this 'Shrinking one partition to make another partition' approach with BootCamp.
But, if you don't have one now is the time to make a complete backup of all the things on your Mac !
Before 'fumbling' with partitions I always make sure to have a backup.

Split screen with soft edge

I know this should be simple, and its probably staring me in the face, but for the life of me, I can't get what I want. I want to be able to set a filter on to a clip(s) that allows me to do a split screen between 2 clips of video, and in the split is actually a diagonal line, that is feathered.
I can add a 4-point matte and get the split and line, but when I go to the feather control, it feathers the line perfectly, but it also feathers all the other sides of the video, so that the clip below shows through on the top, right and left.
Thanks for the help.

Same problem here. You can use an edge wipe the length of the two shots you want the split between. Then make the start and finish positions the same (probably 50%) Problem is with an edge wipe you can control direction of the wipe line but not softness. With a gradient wipe you can have softness but can't set direction. Very strange.

Looking for split keyboard with soft keys

Does anyone know of a split keyboard that has keys as soft/sensitive as the powebook keys?

Rubs me the wrong way when someone asks a question and people criticize the question, but I thought I'd pass on my experience. I was disappointed that the "Nimitz" keyboard with the separate calculator-type numerical keypad and extra programmable buttons disappeared. Part of the reason was that the keys on the "chicklet" board felt a little more tightly-spaced (way back in the day I had even gotten a keyboard that splayed apart and you could adjust the angle of the keys you hit with your left hand from those you hit with your right). I didn't like the feel and I was typing more slowly (I'm a fairly quick typer).
I started looking around to see what replacements would match the uncluttered modern look (wireless being part of that) while giving me the conventional keyboard feel. (I'm also a keyboardist, as in synthesizer-player, so I know from the differences in tactile feel and resistance and such.)
But the truth is I stayed with the "chicklet" keyboard. I just got used to it. Going back and forth from synth to piano means you never really get used to a bad keyboard feel and it affects your expressiveness. But once I got used to the "chicklet" keyboard, now when I use a conventional typewriter-style keyboard, it feels clumsy and I find I type no faster than I do on the new one.
My two cents. If you find that's not so, good luck on the search for something suitable for you. Would be nice to have the option for those who want it.
