Need to run Labview with very low power

Hi all,
I'm looking for a way to run Labview with only a few watts.  Hopefully only two watts.  The setup will be powered by solar cells and would run continuously.  (Storage batteries would run it at night.)  The problem is that the system requirments say "G3 or better" for Mac, or "Pentium III/Celeron 866" for Windows or Linux, and as far as I can tell, these use up a lot more than 2 watts.
Is there some way to run Labview with this restricted power supply?
Thanks,
Peter H.

Another possibility would be an embedded platform:

  • ADC with very low DNL for pulse height histogram MCA ?

    I'm looking for an 100 kHz or faster analog to digital converter with
    very low DNL ( much lower than 0.1 lsb or 10%) to be used for pulse
    height MCA analysis by creating a histogram of digitized count
    values. Standard PCI interface cards have DNL of 0.2 lsb which
    produces noisy histograms when repeatedly digitizing a triangle wave
    spanning the entire adc input range. PCI card would be best, but
    external device or just the adc chip itself would be useable.
    Wilkinson style is one known for such low DNL.

    Application is time correlated single photon counting to measure
    nanosecond fluorescent lifetimes. A laser pulse generates a start
    pulse. The first photon emitted from the sample generates a stop
    pulse. The time difference is converted to a voltage pulse (0 to
    +10V), 2 usec duration (I could extend that with an external
    sample/hold) by a time-to-amplitude converter. The overall lifetime
    of the sample is constructed by repeating this at least tens of
    thousands of times. For each laser shot, the voltage pulse is
    digitized and its binary code summed into a histogram bin. A plot is
    made of number of occurances vs adc binary code value. At least 12
    bits of resolution is desired. The pulses to be digitized occur
    randomly in time at least 10 usec apart (maybe 100 usec).
    For accurate data, the width of each histogram bin should be equal. I
    test this by making a histogram from a triangle wave. The number of
    occurances vs raw adc counts should be flat. Instead, it exhibits
    variations of 20% (equivalent to 0.2 lsb of dnl).
    So what I'd like is an adc with bin widths equal to say 1% that can
    digitize a voltage within 10 usec. Its type should not really matter
    as long as it can accomplish this.
    A 20% deviation in adc bin width seems like a high value for something
    electronic in nature ike this. What is it that makes this not
    typically so, since most adc's has 0.2 lsb DNL specs ?

  • Songs with very low volume

    Hi!!
    (Excuse me for my bad english language.)
    The songs are being exported with very low volume. I mixed all tracks to best use. I tried all the quality options, including no compression. I also tried with and without Normalize. What else can I try? What could be happening? Tks!

    Hi stosfot,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has some information on adjusting the master volume of a track that may help:

  • MSI Twin Frozr 780 throttling at very low power target

    Hello
    I bought 2 twin frozr cards and have the problem that they are throttling at very low TDP percentage.
    They start to undervolt and underclock at around 85% power TDP according to gpu-z.
    I have power limit set to 103 in afterburner.
    I I look at afterburner power target % it shows 102 when gpu-z and kombustor and evga oc scanner shows 85%.
    1. Why different values in gpu-z and afterburner. Which one is correct?
    2. Why are the cards throttling so early at low TDP?
    Br Anders

    Quote
    My 2 cards show boost clockrate in afterburner and gpuz same 1032, 1019.
    That's already way above N780 TF 3GD5/OC (1006MHz in oc mode) or N780 TF 3GD5 (941MHz in oc mode) specs so what should be the problem.
    Quote
    Running heaven bench my gpu load is 98-99 on both cards. My powe consumption is around 85 in afterburner and 70 in gpuz.
    That's surely not an OSD ingame reading. 85% TDP at 99% load is about impossible. Did you use Afterburner OSD?
    Again GPU Boost 2.0 is very complex and does not result in the same clockrate in any application.
    Stop with this cheating stuff there is no cheating involved. Also I asked for your system specs.

  • Select single to RSEG with very low performance

    Hello experts,
    We have recently upgraded our sap basis from 701 to 740 and we are experiencing a very low performance with the following abap instruction:
    select single * from rseg into lw_rseg where ebeln = lw_output-pedido and
                                                                ebelp = lw_output-item and
                                                                kschl = lw_output-kschl.
    Could it be anything from the upgrade?
    Any suggestions?
    If we change the "*" for only one field of the RSEG table, would the improvement in te performance be significant?
    Thank you.
    Best regards,
    Raquel Oliveira

    Hi, Raquel!
    In SELECT statement you are not using the key fields for RSEG table.
    Replacing "*" by a single field won't do the trick.
    In our system we've got a table index on EBELN and EBELP fields in RSEG and it helps a lot.
    In case you don't want to set additional indexes you can find all incoming invoices for the purchasing document items in EKBE table and then go to RSEG having BELNR, GJAHR and BUZEI fields.
    If you already have table index on RSEG with EBELN & EBELP fields - you can trace SQL statement in ST05 and check whether it uses the index.
    And apart from that - anything can be from upgrade

  • 2012 R2 DirectAccess with very low client throughput

    I have a three-node Windows NLB Server 2012 R2 DirectAccess farm.  These three single purpose servers have good specs (8 cores, 32GB RAM, etc etc).  The problem that I am seeing is that the clients all have very low throughput on each session (between
    6 and 8 MBit "aka 1 MByte" per second).  This performance spec is linear since for each concurrent client that you add their throughput is also in that range.  Clients are all high-spec notebooks with Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64.  Performance
    on these clients is excellent except when transiting the DirectAccess server.  If the same client connects through AnyConnect VPN their throughput is excellent.  Additionally, when clients connect to the DA server plugged into the external traffic
    switch (aka same network as the DA external interface) the performance is identical so this isn't a WAN performance issue.  The utilization on all devices (DA servers, DA clients, network hardware) is very low so it does not appear to be a resource problem. 
    I confirmed that NULL CIPHER is used on clients so the traffic isn't being double encrypted.  This NLB started life 2 years ago as a Windows Server 2012 environment on different hardware and I've had the exact same issue.  It works "ok"
    but not the throughput that the capacity planning documentation indicates.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Mark Ringo

    Hi Mark,
    Which transition technologies does the client use to connect the DirectAccess Server?
    Using IP-HTTPS for DirectAccess connectivity has higher overhead and lower performance than Teredo. If the DirectAccess client is using IP-HTTPS instead of Teredo, the DirectAccess client will have a lower performance connection.
    When examining performance issues, one of the first places to look is the display of the
    ipconfig command on the DirectAccess server, which indicates the type of encapsulation based on the interface that has a global IPv6 address assigned.
    For detailed information, please refer to the link below,

    If you had followed Harm's advice originally you would have solved or at least understood the terms of your problem
    by now, instead you have belittled people's attempts to assist you and left a fowl smell in the atmosphere. Not too bright.
    The wiki does shed some light on some of your issues, but it isn't a magic bullet. If you think "life sucks" then I can't help you.
    You keep insisting you're a non-technical person, so why are you trying to do anything technical? Editing on a computer is unavoidably technical. Either get a technical person to help you in person or get a new vocation/avocation. Your rants here are not currying any favour.

  • Interfacing LabVIEW with PS-325 power supply

    Hello guys, I have  a power  supply  from Stanford Research systems, PS-325. This power source  have  a comunication port with pc that requires a  KUSB-488B cable. I have installed  the  drivers necesary for this cable and  drivers  for  power    supply   from  NI site, but   doesn't work. I have  a dedicated  GUI  from Keithley with i have  tested  the cable and conection, and   all good but in LabVIEW  doesn't work. I have made   a simple   VI  to  set the voltage  to  power source and I'm getting   ERR (-10737807343). Can anyone  help me  with   this? maybe  somebody have a  VI  for  this  power  supply.

    It doesn't require a controller from Keithley. That's a choice that you or someone else made and not exactly a good choice. If Keithley provides its version of VISA, you need to install that but also NI-VISA as primary. The actual gpib driver must come from Keithley. You probably need to enable tulip support as well. The controller and instrument have to be listed in MAX.

  • MacBookPro shuts down with no low power warning.

    Once my battery drains to around 10%, my mac just completely shuts off, with no warning. In the past, I had received a warning.
    I've reset the SMC several times. I've reset the PRAM/NVRAM several times. This has had no effect.
    The shutdowns are occuring both with an Apple branded battery and with a 3rd party battery.
    I've only recently noticed this problem, because for a long time I've been using my laptop more like a desktop, completely on battery. Once I went back to using it as a proper laptop, I began to experience these warningless shutdowns.
    Any advice besides trying to reset the SMC and PRAM again and again?

    I've fixed the problem and want to share my solution.
    I suspected some corrupted system files, so I reinstalled Lion (command-R at start up followed by a large download). This was extremely easy over a T1 connection and resulted in the low battery warning messages reappearing. But the mac still unexpectedly shut down instead of sleeping when the battery got too low.
    So, I did another SMC reset, figuring it might have an effect in conjunction with the newly installed Lion. It worked!  I now see low battery warning messages (at around 6%) followed by sleep (at around 4%).
    I hope this info might help someone else.

  • X100e, It's burning my pants with very low core temperature

    Hi,
    I got X100e just a day ago. All day long, I did so many updates. During that, there were sevreal sudden reset  or freezings.
    Also, sometimes the bottom of X100e gets pretty hot, so I checked core temperature. However, it was the coolest CPU that
    I ever seen. Even, one time, it was 2 celcius degree. I checked  the temperature of the core using Core Temp, Speed Fan, and rmclock, all similar readings. I am not sure what theproblem is. Is it sensor issue or software issue?

    it's often hard to get a consensus on anything, but my opinion is that it's a mixture of comfort-level, flexibility, and quality.
    • i've heard lots of good things about the Snowball, and it's simple
    • a mixer and good mic would offer greater flexibility for recording different things while adding a level of complexity (if you're not familiar with using consoles, etc) and possibly lowering quality if you use cheap gear.
    a lot depends on what you want to do, and what you expect from your final product.
    and after saying all that, i remembered that you're talking about strictly voice for a podcast. i think for the simplicity alone i might lean toward the USB mic, it would provide excellent quality for podcasting, and not put more things in your signal chain to deal with when recording.
