PCI-6014: unable to change Polarity/Range in MAX3.1

Recently we have needed to change our data input range from +/- 10V to +/- 500mV. The manual says that this occurs by changing the gain levels, however MAX does not display any data ranges other than +/- 10V.
I have tried removing the device, uninstalling and reinstalling the latest release of the drivers (v7.2) but to no avail. We also use LabView v6.1 for our applications. Any help is much appreciated.

DMC,
You will need to programmatically set the input ranges for the analog input channels in LabVIEW. They can be specified by using the input limits input to AI Config.vi.
Good luck with your application.

  • How can I set the polarity / range of NI 6014 for 0.0V - 10V?

    How can I set the polarity / range of NI 6014 for 0.0V - 10V?

    Nilton,
    The NI 6014 only has bipolar (10V to -10V) mode available, not unipolar (10V to 0V). Look into our E Series boards for both unipolar and bipolar operation.

  • (PCI-6014) AI_VRead function returns only -5V~+5V ranges.

    After installing the PCI-6014 board, The Mesuremant Automation program work well between -10V~+10V range(Analog Input). But When I ran AIonePoint example, AI_VRead() function returns only -5V ~ +5V. It returns only 5V if I voltage more then 5V. In fact, I want to use this card in range -10V ~ + 10V. What can I do?
    Thank you for seeing this.

    You need to use a gain of -1.

  • Incremental encoder: reset counter on pci 6014?

    I want to connect an incremental encoder with A, B and Z to a PCI 6014 card. I found some VI's for counting A and B (DAQmx->Counter->Count Digital Events; DAQmx->Counter->Measure Posititon) . However I can't figure out what to do with the Z. Is there a way to reset the counters by Z? (I am using labview 2009)
    Thank you very much!

    Sorry, my fault. I didn't see you have an E-Series device.
    Resetting your counter with a digital trigger is possible for Counter/Timer devices but not for your PCI 6014.
    You can reset the counter with DAQmx by stopping and starting the task again. You could read your Z index on a digital input, if the input goes high (or low) you could reset the counter.

    I think this is the only way for the PCI 6014. Since you have to go through several software layers, the performance goes down a bit. If it is possible, i would recommend to change to a M-Series device...

  • Problems changing reference range

    I am unable to change the reference range. Whenever i click a new range it just remains on the previous range. Has anyone else had this problem before? If so, how do i solve it?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Try to restart the xcelsius session again, but before that close all the excel session from task manager.
    Try one more thing like open a new session on xcelsius and try to replicate the same scenario, see if its working. Revert in case of any further clarification.
    Good Luck & Keep Posting.

  • Oscilloscope trigger on PCI 6014

    Hi...
    I tried to build triggered oscilloscope on PCI 6014 for educational purpose. First I build nontriggered Oscope13.vi and it works for me satisfactory. I can change oscillograme with time/sec and volts/sec, and measure values with cursors.
    Then I want to trigger that Oscope13.vi with Analog SW Trigger.vi that I found in Cont Acq&Graph Voltage-Analog SW Trigger.vi example as subVi.
    I built Oscope14.vi.
    Now nothing works as i wanted. Time controls don't change oscillograme and it blinks (some kind of jitter).
    Please, can anyone help me to get my nontriggered Oscope13.vi work also in triggered mode.
    I work on LabVIEW 8 Full Developement.
    Computer: Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2,00 GHz 1 GB RAM
    Thanx in advance.

    Damir,
    first of all, the 6014 is a multifunction data acquisition device, not an oscilloscope.
    I don't know where you got that example from as it is not following common implementation style guides.
    That being said, i see that your DAQmx read returns an array of waveforms. This datatype contains the raw data and timing information. Your conversion of this to a 2D double array removes that timing information. So i assume that your waveform scaling functions runs rampart and messes things up.

  • Wrong duty cycle (pci 6014 and bnc2110)

    Hello,
    I want to generate a square signal with labview 7.0, pci 6014 and bnc 2110. I attached my VI . The duty cycle works properly for instance for 10%, 20%, 30% (I suppose that it works because when I anlyse the signal: some pulse seams to not appear ) . BUT when I change the duty cycle constant to 15%: the output is again 20% and not 15%. It's the same case for 17%, 18%....
    I really need to create square signal with a perfect duty cycle.
    Do you know where is the problem?
    Thank you 
    labview 7.0

    I found the problem for missing pulse: it's the while loop. I delete it and add more samples.
    The duty cycle works now due to the precision of the "simulate signal"

  • DAQ wizards not recognizing PCI-6014

    I'm trying to do some simple data logging and also a PI loop with 4-20mA out using a pci 6014. The assistants don't recognize my hardware. I've got the data logging running but am having trouble writing to the analog out (I'm planning to use an IC to convert the 0-10V to 4-20mA). The NI-MAX can write to the card OK as can some of the examples, however when I try to write to two channels at once using the examples I get an error. Also I can't change the AO-write.vi to accept a non-waveform data type.
    Thanks
    Tom

    Tom,
    The reason your board isn't recognized by the DAQ Assistant is because the DAQ Assistant uses NI-DAQmx functionality which currently is not compatible with the PCI-6014. You will have to use Traditional DAQ 7.0 or earlier.
    As far as the errors you are receiving, can you be more specific as to the error #s and/or messages?
    Hope this helps. Have a great day!

  • EA6900 - Unable to Change to Bridge Mode or Reset router Via Smart Wi-fi

    I am unable to change to Bridge mode to do a reset of the router from within the software. There is no option to change it to Bridge.  And under Diagnostics, there is no option to Reset.  I am trying first and foremost to set the IP scheme to the same as my DSL router. I would rather not put it in Bridge mode.  I have tried setting the IP out of the range of the DSL router, and within the same scheme.
    It does not work.  This is the most current version of the firmware.

    Hi Dr. Tek, You can try to reset the router for 30 seconds and power cycle it after. Try to access the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi software again and check if you can change the connection type to bridge mode. You can also use another internet browser to isolate the problem.

  • Unable to change the data source of SAP system

    Dear all,
    We have install SAP netweaver EHP1 standalone java on oracle 10.2.0.5 on windows 2008 R2.
    while installation i have given the central SLD system as solman,
    By mistake i have deleted the system from SMSY.. now when i createed the system manually i am unable to change the data resource as SLD due to this i can start my SMD configuration
    Request please let me know how to resolve this issue.
    Thanks

    Hi Paresh,
    You can proceed with deleting your SAP system from SMSY (along with connected technical content such as AS Java definition) and the run the LANDSCAPE FETCH through transaction SMSY_SETUP to have the correct definition of your SAP system in SMSY.
    Following this, you could use the addon Landscape Verification (a new thing I learnt today!!!)  to check the correctness of transaction SMSY. The following link details the Landscape verification 1.0 for SolMan:

  • Unable to change Profile picture in Windows 8

    I recently upgraded to Windows 8.  The upgrade imported a picture from my Windows 7 Skype, and now I am unable to change the profile picture.  There is no menu at the top in Windows 8, which prevents me from changing the profile picture.
    What are my options for correcting this, and also how does one sign out of Skype in Windows 8?
    Thanks so much.

    Although I'd love to provide a proper response, unfortunately I too have only questions, which I'd hope someone could answer. "Opening Skype and clicking on the picture" isn't as helpful as one would hope. With Windows 8 -- in either mode, through either Google Chrome or IE10 -- there is not only no menu or options with either right or left clicking, but no clear way to change a profile picture through any other means. I've tried everything I could think of -- literally wasting HOURS trying to change this thing. Googling the question gets me only fixes that don't appear to apply. In fact, the lack of coherent help regarding anything having to do with Windows 8 is nothing short of mindboggling -- and I consider myself a pretty good finder-of-information normally!!! I read elsewhere in these forums (unfortunately lost to me now that I have signed in) that it may be a problem relating to whether my browser is 32 or 64 bit (if I read it right). I have since tried to load Chrome in 64 bit.... probably unsuccessfully, given I still can't seem to do much differently. Being a bit of a techno-dud I don't know how to check which version I now have as even with the "about:version" function, the reply isn't definitive to my untrained eye (unless WOW64 means something?). I need things somewhat dummied down. I'm totally new to both Windows 8 and Skype (and for that matter Google Chrome, having always been a Firefox fan, which apparently is not working properly for Windows . ANY help that might be available would be greatly appreciated in making this experience less frustrating. Thank you for whatever you can do!!!

  • Unable to change "Your name" in BIS

    I have my Gmail account set up in BIS and everything is working perfectly, however, I am unable to change the "Your name:" field to anything other than what's already there.  I've tried deleting the account and re-adding it in there from the web site as well as from my BB to no avail.  When I change the field, I don't get an error and I receive a message saying "Email account successfully updated." but it doesn't stay.  For some reason, just my last name is in there (i.e. Smith) but I would like to change the "Your name:" field to my full name:  John Smith.
    Is there something I'm doing wrong?  TIA!

    What did your mobile operator have to say about it? This seems to be a problem specific to them. They can disable most of the fields your BIS account.

  • Unable to change setings, was in Siri, got 'jammed'

    This 'Senior' got jammed-up. Unable to change settings, settings unresponsive and am stuck in Siri. Problem happened IN SIRI, now can't change settings to even access the Siri option.
    SETTINGS WON'T LET ME ACCESS OPTIONS 'below level of Wallpaper'.  Swipe won'r allow to go to any other screen in settings.
    This happened in SIRI and I can't even disable 'turn-off' Siri 
    Unable to close applications on bottom of screen as well, as usually done.
    The 'voice mode' is on, and that is what jammed everything up.
    The only appications which show 'open on screen are' Messages,Phone, Settings and Safari, Mail, Music,  and I am prevented from 'closing them'.
    I did a turn-off, began again with the apple logo but can't reset.
    Can't get past the first screen in my apps. 
    I BELIEVE it is a SIRI problem but can't change settings other than 'Airplane Mode through Wallpaper.'
    I bet there is someone who would help a 'Grandma'!
    What on Earth IS wrong?!!! and how can I get 'out of it' without going to the Apple Store.
    Tiny store ,International Record  as "Smallest Apple Store in the World", Santa Rosa, California..and they aren't much interested in giving-up that claim to fame!
    it's usually like the 'final boarding of Noah's Ark in there" and NOT a fun place to be!!!

    User's Group,
    Immediate help from randers4 got me 'back in business'. I would have not beieved I could have done this without a trip to the store and a distant appointment date.
    Things seemed messed-up beyond my ability to affect any change!
    Alone, this would not have been possible.  I feel I learned a great deal about the IOS 5 system's Siri quirks.
    This is what it is all about.
    People helping others who know less than they do!
    Gratitude is such a small word,
    this was monumental for me to have done even with the assistance of another person.

  • Unable to change Date Created in Metadata

    Please help with my first post...
    Unable to change Date Created field in Metadata.
    I am a newspaper photographer sending .jpg pics with captions to my office from my iMac. They are viewed at the office on Windows PCs using SCC MediaGrid.
    When changing Date Created in Metadata Invalid Format warning appears "Format should be ISO 8601 XML compliant, that is YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm[:ss][tz] (eg 2006-07-11T13:14:30-07:00)"
    If 2009-09-26, for example, is entered then exported pictures opened up in Photoshop or shown on SCC MediaGrid do not display the date.
    To get dates to show up I first have to open a pic in Photoshop, go to File Info, enter 26/9/09 in Date Created and Save As.
    Next I have to Import this into Aperture where the Date Created shows as "20090926".
    Using Lift Metadata and Stamp Metadata the date can be transferred to other pics.
    Now when I export these pics the date does show up in Photoshop and SCC MediaGrid.
    Can Date Created be typed straight into field in Aperture?...Very important when pics go into archive on a server.
    Also if I hit Return key in a Metadata Caption, to type on the next line, both lines will appear as one with a small square in-between them when viewed on SCC MediaGrid on a Windows PC.
    Thanks in anticipation.

    Nick I don't generallt use the IPTC metadata, so I'm not sure I will be too much help.
    What version of Aperture are you using? I tried both things and I didn't have any problems with the latest version of Aperture on my Mac.
    I was able to enter a date into "Date Created" both with and without the time-zone adjustment. Can you tell us the exact string you tried to enter into the "Date Created" and exactly when you get the error? I tried to enter my time zone (eastern US) as "-5:00", but Aperture wouldn't let me enter the 5 and popped up the error message when I typed that key. I had to use "-05:00".
    As for the caption, when I hit return, Aperture ends my edit. I cannot reproduce your described behavior of actually getting a new-line into the field. I suspect your problem (although I don't know how you get to your problem) is one of the following:
    1) The IPTC standard doesn't tell if the software should use a Unix-style end-of-line (which is a line-feed), or a DOS/Windows style end-of-line (which is carriage-return followed by line-feed). Aperture may put in the Unix-style and your Windows programs don't know what to do with it.
    2) The IPTC standard does indicate the end-of-line style, but either Aperture or your other programs don't follow it.
    or
    3) IPTC Metadata doesn't actually support end-of-line, so Aperture should not allow you to enter multiple lines, but it has a bug so it does allow you to do that.
    Can you tell us where exactly you are editing the caption? I tried it in the inspector pane (on the left) in the "Metadata" tab, and then I hit the "IPTC" button at the bottom of the tab.
