Need help - I2C write/read with TAOS TCS3414 light sensor using USB-8451

Hello, I'm new to labview and need help setting up a vi that will allow me to communicate with a digital light sensor (TAOS TCS3414) using a USB-8451. I need to use the sensor to measure light from a light source that I designed and built as part of a project im working on. I've tried looking at several labview I2C exampled but find them to be very confusing. I've used an arduino to interface with the sensor successfully but need to use labview and dont understand how to write the program. The actions are simple; I need initialize the sensor with a simple command and then request data from 8 data registers and then read that data. The data will then be used in further calculations. The portion i need help with is writing and reading from the sensor. I've attached the datasheet for the sensor as a guide. I can also provide the arduino code that i use to read data from the sensor if that would help.
Pleae keep in mind that i am completely new to labVIEW. I really do want to learn from this but need quick results so the more help the better. It would greately appreciate any help or explaination.

Hi Aaron,
Here you go, this is made with a USB-8452.
When you run the code tick the power en dac enable box on.
Maybe you can help me with my problem, I want to use a fiber to sense light from a led.
Do you use any fiber hardware with the TCS3414?

I2C Write/Read Error

Error -301742 occurred at NI-845x I2C Write Read.vi
"Possible reason(s):NI-845x: The slave did not acknowledge an address+direction byte transmitted by the I2C master. Reasons include the incorrect address set in the I2C configuration or the incorrect use of the 7-bit address. When entering an address to access a 7-bit device, do not include the direction bit. The NI-845x Basic I2C API internally sets the direction bit to the correct value, depending on the function (write or read). If your datasheet specfies the 7-bit device address as a byte, discard the direction bit (bit 0) and right-shift the byte value by one to create the 7-bit address."
We have connected the pull up resistors on the SDA and SCL line.
The error seems to be strange in our case,
We have two setup
1. Using a push button to power the device and wires through the pull up resistor.
2. We are trying to communicate using a NI 2569 for the SDA and SLC and the Power supply to the device.
We do not observe the error in case 1,however, in case 2 we do observe,attached are the waveform pics for the same.
Noted that we have the clock signal rise delay in case 2, is this because of the relay 2569?
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Naru

I don't quite understand your setup, and I'm not sure what I'm looking at with the figures you posted. What does the 2569 have to do with the 8451? You also said
1. Using a push button to power the device and wires through the pull up resistor.
I have no idea what this means.
It's hard to tell from the pictures, but for the Case 1 figure, it appears that you are generating a correct start condition. It's also indicating that are sending a read transaction. You didn't indicate what device you're talking to, so we can't say for sure if this is correct.
In the second case it also appears that you generating a correct start condition. The slow rise times that you are seeing in the clock is probably due to extra capacitance on the bus, or weak pullups, or both. This transaction appears to be a write transaction, but with no data.
At this point, without knowing what device you're talking to, a better explanation of your setup, and the code itself, I'm not sure how much help we can be.

I would like to remove a short gray edge from two images. I need help in that I am not yet able to use PhotoShop. Could somebody kindly help me with this?

I would like to remove a short gray edge from two images. I need help in that I am not yet able to use PhotoShop. Could somebody kindly help me with this?

I doubt it Doc Maik, but I am certainly happy to learn The image is this one (and a similar one). They would be beautiful portraits if not for the "extra mouth". The grey edge that I would like to remove is the excess of (grey) mouth that is actually my horse's chin, but that in the pictures looks like a wider, looping mouth. Practically, looking at the picture, the "extra mouth" to the left. What I would love it to be able correct that to look like a normal mouth, which means that half of the protruding edge should be removed. I am not sure I was able to explain myself, but here is one of the two pictures. I thank you for you kindness in being available to advise me.

Need help re-synching iPods with new computer and getting iTunes to...

Need help re-synching iPods with new computer and getting iTunes to recognize our iPods (it doesn't even recognize them when they're plugged in).
Hubby wiped my harddrive for me, so now I need to get everything back in proper places. I'm using windows XP and installed iTunes once again (I believe it's version 8). I also installed all of my iTunes songs. Now I need to know where to go from here. We have 3 iPods and I need to get them all synched once again. I know how to create different libraries for each of us, but I can't figure out how to get our songs back into our iTunes libraries. When I open iTunes and plug in an iPod, iTunes doesn't even show that an iPod is plugged in.
What do I do now to get each of our iPods synched with our own libraries?
TIA
Brandy

Thanks Zevoneer. The "Restart ipod service" worked and itunes is now recognizing my ipod! Hooray!
Okay, now how do I synch all of our ipods with our individual libraries (I don't want all of my kids' songs and vice versa)? We each have hundreds of songs on our ipods that we don't want to lose.
Thanks again!

Need help on struts configuration with ColdFusion 10 using IIS

We need help on struts configuration with ColdFusion 10 using IIS.
Earlier we were using ColdFusion 8 with IIS 6 for one of our application. This application internally calls struts. After upgrading to ColdFusion 10 struts calls are not loading. We get 404 error.
In ColdFusion 8 struts were configured using actions extension .do in IIS from this file-
C:\ColdFusion8\runtime\lib\wsconfig\jrun_iis6.dll.
But in ColdFusion 10 this file is not present as ColdFusion 10 uses Tomcat in place of Jrun.
Also there is no information in ColdFusion log file.

doctormirabilis, Welcome to the discussion area!
1) how can i configure the time capsule in order to operate as a remote base station synchronizing with the relay using the ethernet port?
Configure the Time Capsule to act as a bridge (not distributing IP addresses). Also configure the Time Capsule to create an 802.11n wireless network with a unique network name (SSID). That's it.
2) how can i avoid that my powerbook while accessing my wireless network does connect through the relay station instead of using the time capsule?
Configure the Time Capsule to use a different network name than the WDS link between the 2 AirPort Express (AX). Configure the PowerBook to use the Time Capsule network.
There are 2 pieces of information that you should be aware of...
(1) None of the PowerBooks are capable of 802.11n.
(2) The WDS link cuts your available bandwidth in half. So the wireless link to your neighbor's has a maximum potential of 27 Mbps.
Let's for a minute assume that you have a Mac compatible with 802.11n. In your configuration the time you could take advantage of the 802.11n speed is when the Mac is sending/recieving data directly from/to the Time Capsule.
There would be NO speed increase in Internet access. The speed of Internet access is going to be controlled by the slowest link in the path to the Internet. That is probably the connection to the ISP. The next slowest path is the WDS link to your neighbor's.
Duane,
I am in a similar situation, sharing internet with my neighbor. Do you think it would be plausible to hook up a vonage phone adapter to time capsule's ethernet port if time capsule is bridging from my neighbor's router in the configuration you have described? A check of my upload speed shows 1.67Mbps (powerbookG4 w/ airport extreme). Vonage reccommends 90kbps minimum upload speed. Am I going to lose some speed putting the Vonag adapter behind time capsule?
Thank you

Have you looked at your page with images disabled?
I urge you to re-think this approach to web design because images of text are not indexed by search engines, screen readers or translators. Given the demographic group your site is targeting, you really need to ensure maximum web accessibility for all users.
Navigation, headings and descriptions all need to be in real text -- not images of text.
Ken is right. Absolute positioning is pure poison for such a simple layout. My advice is to start over with one of the pre-built Starter Pages in DW. Go to File > New > Blank page > HTML. Select a layout from the 3rd column and hit CREATE button.

Does Mackie Control work with Final Cut 7 when using USB MIDI?

I have a Mackie Control Universal Pro connected via USB to my mac and it works GREAT with Logic and all the complimentary Logic Studio software.
The problem I am having is, when I try to use it with Final Cut, it wont work at all. I have read the post concerning this that was answered by Andy Mees but, I dont use a true MIDI connection, only USB.
Any thoughts?

Need help to create report with jpeg/gif image

Hello,
I need help with creating a form with a special jpeg/gif seal. I never done this Java. Until now, I created all forms with ansi C++ with HP escape characters to draw lines, boxs, and text. This form will contain boxes which is populated with database information read from a text file.
Since this form contains a special seal on the upper right, I don't think it can be done with old fashion ansi C++. How can I create a form with Java and create it as a simple exe to just print the form to a specified printer.
Thanks,
John

Hi,
I am creating a form with boxes (lines and text). What is special about this form is that it has an image jpeg or gif at the top right corner. Is is a state department seal. Up to this form, I had used ansi C++ and print out escape HP character to print out the lines, boxes, and text. I have no idea how to print out the image. I am new to JAVA and only 1 class in it. Is there sample code out there to create this type of form with the image? I need a starting point.
Thanks,
John

Need help on dial backup with ISP

I've been googling around a couple hours and can't find a simple configuration for dial backup to an Internet Service Provider.
So far, what I've been able to find is direct dialing to routers and dial backup using ISDN.
All I need is for a router to dial. The ISP uses PAP/CHAP authentication and dynamically assigns IP addresses to dialup accounts.
I have an 1841 router with a T1 line on S0/0/0. I want it to fail over to the modem on the AUX port and use that as the new default gateway for all traffic.
Any help is appreciated.

I think you can use Dial on Demand Routing (DDR) as described here:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk801/tk133/tsd_technology_support_protocol_home.html
and this particular guide as well:
http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Internetwork_Design_Guide_--_Designing_DDR_Internetworks#Dial_Backup_for_Leased_Lines
Basically your dial connection will not be active until certain traffic will pass through.
Now, to pass traffic only when primary is down, you can define a static floating route as explained above, which is a route with a higher admin distance than the default one, so if the normal route is up, nothing will pass to the dialer, if it's down, the route to the dialer will be used.
To detect that primary route is down, either use dynamic routing or route tracking as suggested.
I hope that helps.

bastien.

New and need help - drag and drop with dynamic text

So I'm doing this project and as an animator I'm not familiar with the whole action script side of flash
Okay so far I've managed to create the whole Drag and Drop feature and it works well, the thing is I want to make it so when you drag in object in the correct spot and new text appears, and I need like six different object with the dynamic text. but I have no idea how to integrated it in my code or where I should start!
So i based myself on some tutorial so theres some code in there that had dynamic text, but not exactly what i wanted
Your help would be much appreciated!
This is my code:
var counter:Number = 0;
var startX:Number;
var startY:Number;
six_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
six_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
five_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
five_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
four_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
four_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
three_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
three_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
two_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
two_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
one_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
one_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
    event.target.startDrag(true);
reply_txt.text = "";
event.target.parent.addChild(event.target);
startX = event.target.x;
startY = event.target.y;
function dropIt(event:MouseEvent):void {
    event.target.stopDrag();
var myTargetName:String = "target" + event.target.name;
var myTarget:DisplayObject = getChildByName(myTargetName);
if (event.target.dropTarget != null && event.target.dropTarget.parent == myTarget){
    reply_txt.text = "Good Job!";
event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
event.target.buttonMode = false;
event.target.x = myTarget.x;
event.target.y = myTarget.y;
} else {
reply_txt.text = "Try Again!";
event.target.x = startX;
event.target.y = startY;
    if(counter == 6){
        reply_txt.text = "Congrats, you're finished!";
six_mc.buttonMode = true;
five_mc.buttonMode = true;
four_mc.buttonMode = true;
three_mc.buttonMode = true;
two_mc.buttonMode = true;
one_mc.buttonMode = true;

where you have
xxx.text = ....
is where you're assigning text.
