Output data type of NI 9225

How can I get the output data type of NI 9225 (300V rms module) module as waveform? By default it is coming as DBL and other datatype options are disabled.

The DAQmx read function is polymorphic. Right click and select Type then choose Single Channel Multisample waveform. Post your code if you can. If you are using the DAQ Assistant configure the from dynamic data type to be a waveform.

Naive Bayes Training - CLOB as output data type for JSON string?

Hello everyone,
My training model outputs a large JSON string that doesn't fit into one row, so the string is split across multiple rows. Default - or only possible output data type for that matter - is varchar according to the official documentation on PAL. Is there any chance I could use CLOB for the output?
Regards
Henry

The property you provided is for applying an NB model, not for building one.
For build, you should have used Sample_NaiveBayesBuild property file.
I ran the NB apply sample program with your property, and was able to get past the point where you have problem.
Please double check if you really used the property you provided and if it matches to the program you wanted to use.

Output data type of HP34401A

The output measurement of HP34401A is of array data type. How can I convert it to double data type?

The output from "HP34401A Read Meas.vi" is an array of readings. You can either just extract the first element of the array or average the whole thing to get a single value.
Also there is an alternate VI called "HP34401A Min/Max Meas.vi" that also reads the average input value. You could also try that.

Data Type for File adapter

hi all,
we have a scenario which is idoc-xi-file
the output data type should be something like this:
[Data.1]
Promo,1000,,,,,,,
PromoD,2000,,yup
Item,1,IGRP,,,,,,FTY,3
Tier,1,,,,,,,ITEM,,
Itemy,1,IGRP,,,,,,FTY,1,A_,100,,ELST
we have to use file content conversion parameters for this as well as this needs to be converted to a CSV file format(third party system).
any help in declaring this kind of data type(structure) and handling file content conversion parameters would be highly appreciated.
for data type if any anybody can help me build the structure or give an example!!!
would be gr8!!!
thanks in advance

Data types used in a sub VI - selecting the correct input and output types?

data types used in a sub VI - selecting the correct input and output types?
I can never work out how to choose an input or output format for Subvi's.
I want to create a SubVI for the code in red. I needs an VI Server Reference compatible input and an output that goes to a waveform.
Thanks in advance.

GerdW,
I realise now I have taken us in the wrong direction. apologies for that.
History, this is not my code and I do not own the process and NOT my preferred method of using it. I was looking for a simple way to make subtle changes.
What we do - We use these programs to collect data from typically 6 pressures and 6 temperature probes and capture RS232 / USB VISA strings from sensors.
So every few weeks / months or up to a year we rearrange each sensor location to suit the new process. I did not write the code. I cannot change the procedure too much without resistance.
So headers in the CSV file have the DaqMX string passed through the code. Great.
Other data to the CSV file comes from calculations or extracted from the VISA string. Hence why we have headers with "Untitled 1 ()". These values also go to a History Chart.
So I was looking for a simple way to read the the local variable label as it is always linked to the front page indicator. People can cope with editing the indicator label, save the VI and hit run.
TL;DR - GerdW is now a psychologist.

The output of my mathscript node is not changing the data type ?

hi
iam attaching my .vi iam having problem that my math script function is not changing it data type in its output

First off, there is a dedicated mathscript forum that might be better to get your problems answered. (I see if I can have this thread moved from the LabVIEW board, else you can re-post over there.)
I see the same problem that (1) the outputs have no datatype and (2) all datatypes are greyed out, so they cannot be selected manually. (The input is trivial, just wire something and it will adapt).
I am not a text programmer, but I suspect that there is something wrong or incompatible with your code. I have not looked at the statements. Is this copied from an existing matlab program, for example?

ODBC problem caused by SQLGetInfoW function's data type abnormally output

Background:We have designde a set of ODBC(Unicode) driver.We use Access2013x64 for data import operation according to the ODBC driver, which is called the
SQLGetInfoW function.Because of the third parameter in SQLGetinfoW function outputing 8 bytes data in error,Access abnormally stop.While using Access2010x64,the same operation, the SQLGetInfoW funtion has also output 8 bytes of data and Access is normally
end.
Questions:
We want to know for the operation of the third parameter'outputing data of SQLGetinfoW funtion,is there a difference between Access2013 and Access2010 ? And what
is the specific difference?
In addition, we also want to know the development on the ODBC what kind of standards should we followed? In other words,in the SQLGetInfoW function, the second
parameter InfoType and the third parameter InfoValuePtr existence of the corresponding relationship in theory.
We saw about the second parameter InfoType and the third parameter InfoValuePtr with the definition and the range of instructions in MSDN ODBC API Reference.
We want to know the relation about the value of InfoType and the third parameter InfoValuePtr should return data's type.
The function SQLGetInfoW statement as follows:
SQLRETURN SQLGetInfoW(
SQLHDBC ConnectionHandle,
SQLUSMALLINT InfoType,
SQLPOINTER InfoValuePtr,
SQLSMALLINT BufferLength,
SQLSMALLINT * StringLengthPtr);
looking forward to your answer...

I think this is a very difficult question, but I really need to know the answer.I hope someone can help me.

Issue with xsd Data type mapping for collection of user defined data type

Hi,
I am facing a issue with wsdl for xsd mapping for collection of user defined data type.
Here is the code snippet.

fintObjInst.add(val);
Public class AccountIC

In the above wsdl the collection of fintObjInst if of type xs:anytype. From the wsdl, I do not see the xsd mapping for AccountIC which includes Name and Desc. Due to which, when invoking the web service from a different client like c#(by creating proxy business service), I am unable to set the parameters for AccountIC. I am using JAX-WS stack and WLS 10.3. I have already looked at blog http://weblogs.java.net/blog/kohlert/archive/2006/10/jaxws_and_type.html but unable to solve this issue. However, at run time using a tool like SoapUI, when this wsdl is imported, I am able to see all the params related to AccountIC class.
Can some one help me with this.
Thanks,
Sudha.

Did you try adding the the XmlSeeAlso annotation to the webservice
@XmlSeeAlso({<package.name>.AccountIC.class})
This will add the schema for the data type (AccountIC) to the WSDL.
Hope this helps.

JDBC MS Access--- cannot extract entry with null value with data type Meta

I'm trying to extract a data entry with null value by using JDBC. The database is MS Access.
The question is how to extract null entry with data type memo? The following code works when the label has data type Text, but it throws sqlException when the data type is memo.
Any advice will be appreciated! thanks!
Following are the table description and JDBC code:
test table has the following attributes:
Field name Data Type
name Text
label Memo
table contents:
name label
me null
you gates
Code:
String query = "SELECT name, label FROM test where name like 'me' ";
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(query);
while (rs.next())
String name = rs.getString("name");
rs.getString("val");
String label = rs.getString("label");
System.out.println("\t"+name+"\t"+label);
catch (SQLException ex)
System.out.println(ex.getSQLState());
System.out.println(ex.getErrorCode());
System.out.println("in sqlexception");
output:
C:\Temp\SEFormExtractor>java DBTest
yet SELECT name, label FROM test
null
0
in sqlexception

The question is how to extract null entry with data type memo?Okay, what you need to do is this:
if (rs.getString("val") == null)
// do something
}This way, when it's a null value, you can check it first, and then handle it how you want, rather than getting an exception.

Arrays of Different Data Types

Hi, I am studing Java Development as 2 of my units (Programming Theory and Programming Practice), and I have a problem with a program which involves an array that contains two data types; int and long. The program is designed to store Student ID's and Exam Marks (1 Exam Mark per ID). The program is designed to use sorting, and the array is to be populated at the start of program execution. It compiles fine, but I get an error when the program is running as soon as you input the first value. The program is not very complex, but I need to understand how to get this fixed and why is isn't already. Any help is appreciated as this is a genuine problem. This program follows a consistent style template given to me by my tutor. The source is given below, and I appreciate any positive response.
Thanks in advance...

Try this piece of code...... I adapted it to your program, so it starts from 1. You should pass numOfStudents - 1 as numOfStudents to don't get the notorious error =D
if (menuChoice.equals("1"))
findHighest(module, numOfStudents - 1);
I added the println statement because in your prog isn't present an output routine (well, at last I didn't see it..... maybe because I'm sleepy =) )
public static void findHighest(StudentRecord module[], int numOfStudents)
String outputMark;
String outputSID;
StudentRecord retValue = new StudentRecord();
retValue.sID = module[1].sID;
retValue.mark = module[1].mark;
for (int i = 2; i <= numOfStudents; i++) {
     if (module.mark > retValue.mark) {
     retValue.sID = module[i].sID;
     retValue.mark = module[i].mark;
outputSID = String.valueOf(retValue.sID);
outputMark = String.valueOf(retValue.mark);
System.out.println(outputSID + " " + outputMark);
Hope it can help you

Problem with pl/sql table data type

hai friends,
i have one procedure it has some in parameters and one out parameter which fetches values to front end.
But the out parameter will be pl/sql table data type.
if it is ref cursor
then i declared as
var x refcursor;
exec procedure_name(1,:x);
it is ok.
but for pl/sql table data type is out parameter then what i will do in the prompt .
give me syntax and clarify my doubt.
advanced thanks...
madhava

The SQL*Plus VARIABLE statement does not support user-defined types, hence it cannot support nested tables. It can support cursors because they can be weakly typed (so we can use the one SQL*Plus VAR to hold any shape of resultset). Nested tables are strongly typed; SQL*Plus is a relatively stupid interface and cannot be expected to understand UDT.
So, it you want to use nested tables as output you'll need to code a wrapping procedure that can understand your nested table type and handle it accordingly.
Sorry.
Cheers, APC

How do I make a VI that contols a 6534 card take less time to load 1Mbyte and output data ?

Hello-
I'm developing a pattern generation burst mode type VI that reads byte characters from a text file, manipulates the bytes that it reads and then outputs the data from a 6534 card. The REQ1 pin is pulled high which makes the card continually output data until the internal buffer is empty. An internal clock is used. The problem is that the size of the file that is read by the VI can be relatively large, in the 1MByte range. After the VI manipulation, the output array is 16 times larger than the input string. So, when the VI reads a 1MByte text file, the output array contains 16 million entries (each array entry is 3 bits by the way). It takes about 20 seco
nds to run and output data from the 6534 even when reading files that are 200kbyte or so. I'm outputting the data at 5Mbps. I'm not sure where all the delay is coming from. Using the 'Profile VI" function under the 'Tools' menu shows a snapshot of time that really doesn't help me since it only shows that the time is spent in my VI. Is this just the result of loading large files ? Or, is there a way to preload the 1MByte file into the 32MB of RAM on the 6534 card before the VI is actually run. What I mean is that I do have the option in my system to have a time when all text files will somehow be loaded into the 6534 memory, during some initialization period, and then the VI would be run with the text file already loaded. This of course assumes that the delay is loading the file from the harddrive, but since the harddrive transfer speed is fast, I have no idea where to speed things up. Any ideas ? Thanks !

Your question actually belongs to the Measurement Devices >> Digital IO section since it concerns operating the 653x family of digital boards. You will see other related questions and answers there. In the future, please direct your digital questions to that forum.
If you are trying to profile your VI, you can break it into different pieces. For instance, you can make a subVI out of the file data manipulation.
Now, are you doing pattern generation or burst mode handshaking output? From your description of the signal connections, it looks like burst mode. You can double-check in the 653x User Manual at the http://www.ni.com/manuals pages. Still, it looks like you could accomplish your task with pattern generation. There are example VIs for both operations that
I suggest you start with. They are located in the LabVIEW >> Examples >> Daq >> Digital >> 653x.llb directory.
It also sounds like you are doing a single buffered operation, where you have a set amount of data that you want to output, and once done, the VI will stop. You are preloading the data to the buffer at DIO Write.vi before the 6534 actually outputs the data with DIO Start.vi when you program like the examples.
Thus, start with the appropriate example and then add the File I/O to it. You can even test with a smaller file to see the effects. You will also find useful information concerning the 6534 in the KnowledgeBase, particularly KnowledgeBase 298CGF9M "How Many Samples of Data Can I Store in the Onboard Memory of the NI 6534?". You can find this online by going to the http://www.ni.com/support and choosing KnowledgeBase from the Technical Resources pull-down menu. Then, type in keywords to search for, such as "6534".

Liquid data type updates

Hi everyone,
With the next release (to go out on Monday) we're adding proper date format support in liquid for all modules. Besides all the improvements and additions made available with this release, one important note, which requires you to do some updates after the release, is that we're breaking backwards compatibility for liquid date tags by outputting the dates in ISO 8601 format ("yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss") instead of current format(“yyyy-MM-dd”).
Here is a brief overview of the changes:
All module fields which represent date or date times are now passed to Liquid as date time objects (previously they were passed as strings). This brings the following benefits:
Comparison between date time objects works correctly
It is possible to compute the difference between two date time objects using the minus filter. Example: {% assign dateDiff = Globals.Site.DateNow| minus: myDate %}
We added the means for obtaining the current date time: Globals.site.dateNow. The returned date is in the site’s time zone.
By default, when no filter is applied, all date variables will be output in the following ISO 8601 format: “yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss”. For example {{ myDate }} would output something similar to: “2014-12-12T07:19:49”. (Note: this is a backwards compatibility breaking change, as previously we outputted dates using the following format: “yyyy-MM-dd”. The breaking change only affects Liquid tags). Following the release, you should update your sites using the provided date filters to format the dates as you need.
The output of date time variables can be formatted using the following filters:
date (with no parameters)– displays a nice to read string representing just the date part from the date time variable. The date is formatted in the site’s culture. This compatible with the way older BC tags display dates. For example {{ myDate | date }}, in the English US culture will output a string similar to: “12-Dec-2014”.
datetime (new filter) – displays a nice to read string of the date time variable using the site’s culture. This compatible with the way older BC tags display date time. For example {{ myDate | datetime }}, in the English US culture will output a string similar to: “12-Dec-2014”.
date “format” (existing filter, nothing updated, mentioned here just for consistency) – displays the date in the site’s culture using a format specified by the format variable. The list with the available formats is available here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8kb3ddd4%28v=vs.110%29.aspx. Note that the date filter can also be used to format objects that result as a difference between two date time objects, however, in this case the format string will respect a different set of rules as defined here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee372287%28v=vs.110%29.aspx. The following example demonstrates how to display just the number of days in the difference between two dates: {{ Globals.Site.DateNow| minus: myDate| date: "%d" }}
We added the Convert filter which can be used for converting variables to a certain type. The syntax is: variable | convert: “type”. Below are the values supported by the type parameter:
“date” – converts a variable to a date time instance. We only support the following formats for strings that are converted to date time: “yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss” and “yyyy-MM-dd”.
“number” – converts a variable to a number instance. If converting from string, only period “.” is supported as a decimal separator. This filter will probably be most useful when trying to convert GET query parameters: {% assign pageNumber = Globals.get.pageNumber | convert: “number” %}. The previous example assumes that URL that loaded the page contains a parameter named pageNumber. The convert numeric filter is an alternative to the rather hack-ish approach of converting to numbers using mathematical operators: {% assign myNumber = variable | plus: 0 }. Please note that it is not recommended to use the convert numeric filter just to assign numeric constants. For example, this approach is not recommended: {% assign myNumber = “3.14” | convert: “number” %}. Use the following approach instead: {% assign myNumber = 3.14 %} (note the lack of quotes around 3.14 in the second example).
“boolean” – converts a variable to a boolean instance. Please note, that just as it is the case with numerics, it is not recommended to use the “boolean” filter for declaring a boolean constant. For example this is not recommended: {% assign myBool = “false” | convert: “boolean” %}. Use the following syntax instead: {% assign myBool = false %}
“string” – converts a variable to its string representation.
We added implicit casting to the most relevant type in comparisons and inside filters representing mathematical operations (plus, minus, times, divide, modulo). With implicit casting, if one of the two operands is of type string and the other is of a different type (for example numeric or date time), we will attempt to convert the string operand to the type of the other. The conversion will fail if the string is not in an appropriate format for the type it is converted to (same rules as in the Convert filter are applied). In comparisons, if the implicit casting fails, the comparison is made with both operands converted to strings. Additional notes:
Implicit casting allows using date time literals directly in comparisons if the other operand is of date time type. For example, this will work correctly since "2015-01"15" will automatically be converted to date time before making the comparison: {% if myDate > "2015-01-15" %}Some message{% endif %}
Date parts obtained using the date filter can be used directly in comparisons with numerics. For example:
         {% assign daysDiff = Globals.Site.DateNow| minus: myDate| date: "%d" %}
          {% if daysDiff < 10 %}
            A message
          {% endif %}
With the implementation of implicit casting we also fixed some rather funny bugs related to comparisons and mathematical operations. For example, previously, 5 < 5.5 was evaluated as false, but 5.5 > 5 was evaluated as true. Also the result of 5| plus: 5.5 was 10, but the result of 5.5| plus: 5 was 10.5 (now 10.5 is the result of both operations, as expected).
As a potential caveat, note that implicit casting will bring the operands to the relevant type only if one of them is actually of that type. If both operands are of type string, the comparison is made as of between strings. This means that following condition is evaluated as false {% if "3" < "15" %}, because as a string "15" is smaller than "3".
Implicit casting from string to numeric only works if the string represents just a numeric. If the string contains additional characters, like a currency symbol, the conversion will fail. For example, this will not work correctly {% "$15" < 20 %}. Our goal, in the next releases, is to update all modules containing price related tags to have them in plain numeric format.
We added the following filters for easily formatting numeric values representing prices.
number - displays numbers with a fixed number of two decimals using the decimal separator appropriate to the site's culture. For example, in the English US culture, {{ 99| number }} will display 99.00
currency - displays numbers in the same way as number but also inserts the currency symbol at the beginning of the returned value. The currency symbol respects the site's culture. For example, in the English US culture, {{ 99| currency }} will display $99.00
In the next release or releases, we're going to focus on fixing the remaining data types for modules.

Liam, the server date isn't helpful for converting timezones. We would need a direct date filter. With a filter for UTC and one for the user we should be able to do quite a bit from there.
The most powerful things that could be implemented for date time are the following:
• moment.js and Moment Timezone built into the filters.
• the ability to add time info into date time fields
But I know that's a tall order.

Schema Data Type in SOAP Web Service while using Integration Gateway in SMP 3.0

Hi Experts,
I was working on Integration gateway component of SMP 3.0.3 where we can have oData services which connect to different data source from SMP and finally we have to consume from SMP. Here I have an SOAP Web service where there is Schema Data type which is an xml structure and because of that while doing the data modelling with Design time tools I am not able to map the properties as there aren't any as only the parent level Schema type is available in the SOAP Web Services. Please see the below image for reference :
So now I have 2 inputs no problems for design as such then I have the schema for that which comes as a output response which is where I am facing the issue as we don't have that Data Structure itself so how are we going to map that. I have seen some thin possibilities with Custom Scripts with SMP SP06 where this will help us to process the request and response at runtime with JS/Groovy. So needed some lights on this schema data type on Integration Gateway component of SMP 3.0.3 which we are planning to upgrade to SP06 as well so it will be a good starting point for this as well
Also have concerned my good friend Rakshit Doshi for this as well.

Fenil.
