Multiple Channels for Campaigns

Hi Folks ,
Is it Possible to possible to Execute a Campaign for Different Communications Channels at Once - If so , how is it possible ? Needed valueable inputs - Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Amrita.

Hi Amrita,
You need to have different campaign elements assigned to your campaign to achieve this.
Assign the communication channel and Profile to each element which you want to execute.
If you are executing the campaign manually you need to go to segments tab of the campaign element and goto extras in the menu and select target group to channel.
If you are executing through campaign automation you need to have start node and all the elements one after the other connected using the connections. Then you can schedule the campaign in the start node and execute using the start button.
I hope the above answers your question.
Reward points if it helps.

Select multiple channels for one task - control and shift keys don't work

Hi,
Following advice from several other posts, I'm trying to select multiple physical channels from the dropdown list so that I can then use the "unflatten channel string" function later on. It looks like if I hold down either shift or cntrl I should be able to select multiple channels from the list, however, this doesn't work for me. I tried going into the "key navigations" property for the task channel control but it doesn't have any associations listed. Has anyone else come across this and found a fix? I have previously got around this by stating multiple channels with a colon (eg. ai1:3) but this doesn't work for the unflatten function.
Thanks,
Claire.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for your reply Dennis, I see what you mean, unfortunately that doesn't solve my problem so I'm missing something else. I've attached my VIs. I expected that the output from the unflattenstring block would be an array of either the channel references or the names I had given them, and that therefore the "array size" in the 4th pane would be "9" (equal to the number of channels). Instead the output is a an "unnamed task#(some number)" when I look at it with a probe. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding how the task naming works?
THanks,
Claire.

How to place outbound files to multiple channels for a single agreement

Hi All,
We need to send single HIPAA 834 document to two different locations(channels) of the same TP. We have single HIPAA 834 agreement with one TP and one channel. is there a way to add two TP outbound channels for a single TP/agreement?
Thanks,
Kathar

Hi Kathar,
is there a way to add two TP outbound channels for a single TP/agreement?One TP may have multiple channels but one agreement can have only one associated channel. You may consider using the broadcast feature of Oracle B2B here.
You may read about this feature here -
https://blogs.oracle.com/oracleb2bgurus/entry/broadcast_feature_in_oracle_as
Please note that this blog was written for 10g but concept and implementation is same in 11g.
You need to create two TP profiles for same TP (you should use different name/identifiers for both) and then make them part of same group by adding identifier "Grouping" in both the profiles with same value. From middleware pass the header "Grouping:<value>" in action name or event name header. At runtime B2B will send the same message to both TP profiles.

Reading multiple channels for multiple graphs

Hey I am fairly new to Labview and am using it just temorarily. My project is to take in readings from a Gaussometer (X,Y, and Z axis) and graph them in read time. The Gaussometer outputs a DC Voltage equal to the gauss of the magnetic field. The X,Y,Z all come in on three differnet channels. Connected to a NI USB-6009
I know I can use the Express> DAQ Assistant, however that outputs "Data" and I was hoping to use this in an Array. So I used the DDT to Array to convert it to the Array format that I needed (thanks to the forums for the help there). My only problem is that I don't know how to do this with multiple channels at the same time. But I have possibly been going about this all wrong.
So I just wanted to know if I could get some help on how to read multiple channels and write to them to three different graphs in real time that would be of great help.

Whether or not you use the Convert From Dynamic Data or the Split Signal, your data should be shown as soon as the DAQ Assistant returns. How you format the data is irrelevant. If the number of samples you request is greater than the sample rate, then it will take longer to acquire the data and there is nothing you can do about that except reduce the number of samples and acquire in a loop. You can append new data to old and display everything in a graph if you want.

Monitor multiple channels for analog trigger with DAQmx drivers

Hello! I would like to start a data acquisition of multiple analog channels (16) from an analog trigger. I would like trigger to monitor four of the (same) channels, and trigger when any one of them reaches a certain voltage. I found an example that would work with the Traditional DAQ drivers (using occurances), but can't figure out how to do something similar in DAQmx.
Time is also an issue, as I would like to collect the first 80 milliseconds of data after the trigger (at a rate of 500,000 Hz).
I'm using LabView 7.0 and collecting data off of two PXI-6133 cards.
Thanks for your help!

Hi Denise-
After some research, I have found that it is not possible to use the functionality of DAQ Occurrences in DAQmx. Ironically, the reason that this functionality is available in Traditional and not DAQmx is due to the exploitation of an inherent limitation of Traditional that was upgraded in DAQmx. The multi-thread capability of DAQmx is a major advantage for most applications, but in this case it prevents the use of occurrences as they existed in Traditional DAQ.
In short, this means that you can't directly use this functionality in DAQmx. You can however emulate this functionality with minimal software analysis of the incoming signal. I have attached a modified example VI that logs data to a chart only when the analog level of one of the channels being measured has exceeded a user-defined reference value. Basically, the task is running continuously in the background but the data is not actually logged until the signal is above a predetermined "trigger" level.
Please let me know if the attached example is helpful for your application. You will see the input channels listed in the format "DevX/ai0:y" where X is the device number and y is the highest channel number of interest.

Multiple Channels for this program?

Hi,
I have built the following VI and was wondering if there was any way it could be modified to use multiple (at least 2 but preferably 4-6) channels. I was trying to maybe make the same thing repeated 4 times wo the user could do what is being done now on 4 seperate channels. I'm not sure I can do that the way I'm doing it now as it become very slow. Thanks for any suggestions.

You probably cannot go in descending order, use 0:1 to get channels 0 and 1, your indexing is fine and should work.
here are a couple of tips to make your vi run faster.
Put the AI config and AI start outside the loop so that you are not reconfiguring them each time the loop runs, also use the open, write, close file vi's manually. put the open outside the loop at the beginning (like you already have), then write to it during each loop iteration and then put the close outside the loop. this way you are not opening, writing and closing the same file every time the loop iterates.And what he means by scanning channels twice is going from 0 to 1 and back to 0 in the same scan, scans are done going from 0 to however many channels your bord has. if you put in lets say 0:9 the scan will scan channels 0-9 in ascending order then repeat.

How to trigger data recording to a text file for multiple channels for a certain voltage threshold?

I am working with 6 channels, from each of which I am obtaining voltage values ranging from 0.6-6 V. I am using the DAQ Assistant to acquire and write the data to a text file. However, I only want the data to be written to the text file when the difference in voltage (DeltaV) from one data point to another is greater than or equal to 0.04 V. I am acquiring the data at a sampling rate of 64 Hz. Any ideas on how to accomplish this? I have attached my current VI.

Your code does not do what you describe above..
I just want to make sure I understand your request...
Let's say you have the following signal:
0.00
0.01
0.00
0.03
0.02
0.01
0.03
0.04
0.07
0.05
0.08
0.03 < delta greater than 0.04, so start recording
0.11
0.21
0.45
0.93
2.87
5.85
5.86 < delta less than 0.04, so stop recording
5.87
5.89
6.00 < delta greater than 0.04, so start recording
5.85
5.86 < delta less than 0.04, so stop recording
etc..
Is the above what you are describing?
Right now, your code does this:
0.00
0.01
0.00
0.03
0.02
0.01
0.03
0.04
0.07
0.05
0.08
0.03
0.11
0.21
0.45
0.93
2.87 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.85 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.86 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.87 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.89 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
6.00 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.85 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
5.86 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
4.35 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
2.21 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
1.09 < threshold greater than 1 so reset timer
0.98
However, you did not provide a set start time to the Elapse Time (I never use Express VI's so I'm not sure what will happen..) However, something does not appear correct with the logic. I'd have to check.

Assigning Multiple channels to one Camapign

Hi Gurus.
We have a requirement for our business where the marketing user would like to assign multiple channels to a campaign. Is this possible.
Ex. Marketing dept creates a campaign would like to target all existing customer. Now they want to execute this campaign through, telephone, e-mail, etc.
My question is it possible and if so how can we assign multiple channel for one campaign execution.
Unfortunately this a urgent requirement and i need to come up with a solution by very quickly.
Your help ment awould be really appreciated.
Thanks
Rao

Hi Rao
it is pretty easy,just you have to define the communication channel for all the BPs which you want to use for your segmentation cause.
within those BPs go to the identification tab and therein you just mention all those communication channels details which you want to use for assigning the BP to target group
after you are done with it just assign target group and do the segmenation.
do revert back in case of any doubt
best regards

Programatically select Multiple Channel

I am using LabVIEW 7.1, Diadem 9.1.
1)
I have created one Report layout. In which I will have one sheet with 2 2D - Graphs on that. I want to pragamatically set multiple channels for both the graphs. Using the script I could able to set only one channel to the graph.
Please guide me how could I set multiple channels? (Attached Report Layout and Script File, Both uses Example.tdm)
2)
I want to call this script file from the LabVIEW and want to pass channel names as parameters. How could I do it?

Diadem_test.zip ‏4 KB

Hi Vishal.,
You have a couple of options if what you want to do is transfer a list of desired channel names from LabVIEW to DIAdem. The first option is to write that list into a file and tell DIAdem to read it. There are plenty of different ways of doing this too. The second option is to dynamically send the array of strings to a new DIAdem text channel. The third option is to dynamically send the array of strings to a DIAdem string array.
Any of these options will work fine, and it's really personal preference which you choose. As of DIAdem 9.1, its OLE Automation Server has no dedicated method to pass either a text channel or a string array with one pointer. So you either provide the values one-by-one to a new channel or new DIAdem string array, or you use file I/O. Below you will find an example of sending values one-by-one to a DIAdem channel. This is not a good method for very long channels (>> 1000 rows), but it should be adequate for your described needs.

What is the recommended way to do multiple channel, single point sampling for control with an NI PCI-6255 in RLP?

Hello,
I am writing a driver for the M-series NI PCI-6255 for QNX. I have downloaded the MHDDK and have all the examples working. I have also enhanced the examples to do interrupt handling (e.g. on AI_FIFO interrupt or DMA Ring Buffer interrupt). My ultimate goal is to write a driver that I can use for closed-loop control at 500 Hz using all 80 channels of the NI PCI-6255. I may also need to synchronize each scan with a NI PCIe-7841R card for which I've already written a driver. I want an interrupt-driven solution (be it programmed I/O on an interrupt or DMA that generates an interrupt) so that the CPU is available to other threads while the 80 analog inputs are being read (since it takes quite a while). I also want to minimize the number of interrupts. Basically, I will need to collect one sample from all 80 channels every 2 milliseconds.
There are many different options available to do so, but what is the recommended technique for the NI PCI-6255 card? I tried using the AI FIFO interrupt without DMA, but it seems to interrupt as soon as any data is in the AI FIFO (i.e. not empty condition), rather than when all 80 channels are in the FIFO, so more interrupts are generated than necessary. I tried using DMA in Ring Buffer mode to collect a single sample of 80 channels and interrupting on the DMA Ring Buffer interrupt, which appears to work better except that this technique runs into problems if I cannot copy all the data out of the DMA buffer before the next AI scan begins (because the DMA will start overwriting the buffer as it is in ring buffer mode). If the DMA is not in ring buffer mode or I make the ring buffer larger than one 80-channel sample then I don't have a way to generate an interrupt when one sample has been acquired (which I need, because I'm doing control).
I saw something in the documentation about a DMA Continue mode in which it looks like you can switch between two different buffers (by programming the Base Count/Address with a different address than the current address) automatically and thereby double-buffer the DMA but there is no real documentation or examples on this capability. However, I think it would work better than the Ring Buffer because I could interrupt on the DMA CONT flag presumably and be copying data out of one buffer while it is filling the other buffer.
Another option would be DMA chaining, but again, I cannot find any information on these features specific to the NI DAQs.
I tried interrupting on AI STOP figuring that I could get a single interrupt for each scan, but that doesn't appear to work as expected.
I know that DAQmx on Windows has the ability to do such single sample, multiple channel tasks at a fixed rate so the hardware must support it.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Daniel Madill

Hello,
The interrupt that will happen nearest the times that you need is the AI_Start_Interrupt in the Interrupt_A group. This interrupt will occur with each sample clock. By the second time this interrupt fires, the AI FIFO should have the samples from the first conversion. If it is easier to use programmed IO, you can read the samples out of the FIFO until you get all 80.
Additionally, you can set the DMA to send samples as soon as the FIFO is no longer empty...instead of waiting for half full or full. This change will reduce latency for your control loop. You can set AI_FIFO_Mode in AI_Mode_3_Register to 0. By the second time this interrupt fires, you should be able to check how much data is in the DMA ring buffer and read the 80 samples when they are available. You can make the ring buffer larger than 80 samples if you see data getting overwritten.
There is no interrupt associated with 80 samples being available in the FIFO or 80 samples being available/transferred by DMA to the host. X Series has much more flexibility with these interrupts.
I hope this helps!

Problem of Creating Multiple Communication channels for multiple files

Hi Everybody
I have a very basic doubt but this struck me...
For a file-XI-file scenario,if multiple files are coming from same FTP server but with different names then we have to create multiple communication channels for all the files of different names..but is this a intelligent approach?Can we do something so that only one communication channel can receive multiple files of different names?plz explain in detail if possible ASAP.
I have another doubt as in File-XI-File scenario how the XI understands that a particular file is from this FTP server needs to be send to another particular FTP Server?is it only the name of the file which we give in sender comm channel & receiver comm chaneel which determines this????that means this name should always be same?plz explain in detail if anybody knows?

Thanks Aamir.I understood the solution.
Correct me if I am wrong.......
1)If there are multiple files with different names & different extensions in the sender FTP then we use-->
2)if there are multiple files with different names & different extensions in sender FTP & I want only say files of 2 extension types(say .xml & .txt)then we use-->
*.xml
in one comm channel &
*.txt
in another comm channel rite??
Also I wanted to ask that only two kinda files we can pick up through sender comm channel rite?
.xml and .txt(File content Conversion).Can we pick files of other extensions also?(say .doc,.xls)If we use as u said
then files of all other extensions will also be picked up rite?bt hw will xi convert them into xml?plz explain......
One of my other q is not answered yet.........all these same doubts are there for receiver communication channel.......but you all have not said nething abt the receiver comm channel........plz explain the answers to all these queries for receiver comm channel for a receiver FTP........ASAP......thanks once again.......

Multiple channels definitions for AI

All examples for analog input use one channel only. I would like to see and example using multiple channel inputs.

Hi rlbrehm,
If you have already created Global Virtual Channels in MAX, you can use the DAQmx Create Task vi to create the task from those in LabVIEW.
If you have a Task configured in MAX, you may use it in LabVIEW as follows:
Using a DAQmx Task in LabVIEW
If you want to define the channels in LabVIEW with multiple characteristics, you can also use the DAQmx Create Channel multiple times in your code to define channels with different characteristics (scales, ranges, etc.). The following code shows how this can be done, although a more elegant solution would use an array of channel configurations in conjunction with a for loop.
DAQmx Acquire with Multiple Channel Input Ranges
The one thing to take away from this is that there are multiple ways to define your task and the parameters associated with each channel--any of the above methods should be able to produce the same result so it's up to you how you want to define your task and channels. I hope this is helpful.

Help! data manipulation for high speed streaming to disk from multiple boards and multiple channels

I am using Labview 7.1 and have been trying to capture data from 12 channels simutaneously sampled at 2MS/s each and streaming to disk for up to a minute or more. The hardware I am using is 2 x PXI 6133 S series boards with a MXI4 link to a Pentium D 2.8 Ghz machine with 2Gb ram. I have 2 sata drives set up in a raid 0 configuration which should give me hard disk write speed faster or equal to the MXI-4 transfer speed.
I have first started off by using the example code "multi device sync - analog input- cont acquisition" which has enabled me to sync the two boards and sample at the required speed.
To stream the data to disk, I have first merged the data from each board together to save it to one file. I have tried using the storage vi's but I end up with a Daqmx read error (trying to read data that is no longer available). I have played around with the read data size to the point that I either get a insufficient memory error, or I get the "trying to read data that is no longer available" error. I have also tried using the file IO blocks with some success and have found that I have been able to stream to disk only if I configure the daqmx read block to output the data in "raw 1D I16" format and plugging it into the file-write block. In doing this, I have noticed that using multiple channels on one daqmx read task, I will get all the channels in one 1D array rather than a 2D array organized by channels. This makes it messy to read at the end of this, and I also don't want to write another vi to separate the channels, due to the high chance of getting the data mixed or messed up if I happen to change the number of channels on a board
Is there a cleaner way of streaming this data to disk and keeping the channel data separated from each other?, and/or is there a better way to capture and handle the data I need?
I have attached the vi which I have got to consistantly work streaming to disk using the raw 1D I16 format.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Hi,
i can suggest following
Refer to an example VI called as "High speed data logger.VI" in conjunction with "High Speed data logger reader.vi" in Labview examples. Alhrough the logger might be in Tradiditional Daq format, it can be quite easily converted to Daq Mx format to store data in Binary (I32 format) . I have used this for many of my applications and i have found that the data retrieved does not have any "messups".
Why not keep a seperate file for each card? This way, you do not have to load your application with extra process. You only have to acquire and save. After saving in Binbary format, you can retrive it offline, convert it to ascii format and merge the data files of various cards to get one consolidated ascii data file.
hope this helps

Audio Volume Sliders for multiple channels of audio

I don't even know if this is possible, but I was wondering if
there was any way you can set up volume sliders to control multiple
channels of audio. For a project I'm working on I am going to have
background audio and comentary. I want the user to be able to
adjust the volume of both the background audio and the comentary.
Is there any was I can make seperate sliders for each of those
tracks of audio?
Thanks!

you can not.
the only workaround i can think of would be to create a volume curve on one track, and then duplicate that track as many times as needed, and drag the regions of your other tracks into these duplicated tracks.

DAQ_START FOR Multiple Channel Data

Hi dears ;
Normally we use Scan_start DAQ API to get multiple channel data but i want to get data using Daq_start for multiple channel
but i dnot want to use this api like Scan_start by giving its second parameter -1 for all channels
i want to use this api in seperate thread for each channel and i want to get the data from 8 channels simultaneously using this api.
plz send code in vc++.if the solution is not possible then send me alternate way.
Detail:
There are 8 threads they are running simultanously and every thread want to acquire data from their corresponding channel i.e thread one from channel one thread 2 from channel 2 and son...all the threads goes at the same to acquire the data and come back after one minute and this process continue untill quit the application
please tell is possible or an altenate solution for this requirement.I donot use Scan_start to get the data of all the channels in one buffer i want to get the data of each channel in its own buffer.
                                 please tell as soon as possible
                                                                         thanks

Hello ajmal,
There are a couple reasons why your idea probably won't work. First, it looks like you are using Traditional (legacy) NI-DAQ functions. The Traditional NI-DAQ driver is not multi-thread capable. Meaning that only one thread will be able to access the driver at a time. Also, it is not possible with Traditional NI-DAQ or NI-DAQmx to have multiple analog input tasks running simultaneously. Is there a particular reason that you don't want to read all the channels in the same task and separate the array into a different sub-arrays for each channel?
