PCI-6133 always returns huge constant number of counts

Hi,
I am trying to use a PCI-6133 with a BNC-2110 adapter to counting leading edges of pulses. Please excuse my high degree of ignorance of how to do this. Anyway, I connected up my TTL input signal according to the BNC-2110 instructions (to PFI-8 via User-2). Whenever I run the DAQmx sample program Count Digital Events.vi, it recognizes the PCI-6133 OK, but always returns an absurdly high and constant number of counts, like 3.2e9. The number doesn't change as I send test pulses into the input. It also remains the same even if I disconnect the input line entirely and rerun the sample program.
Rebooting yields the same behavior.
Using DAQ assistant to generate my own code, instead of the sample program, produced exactly the same result.
Thanks for any help you can give me. I don't even know where to start to debug this problem.
Thanks,
Andy

Finally, does it read the same value every time you run it (the reported 3.2e9)?

Thank you very much for your help.
How/what exactly are you measureing from;?
I am measuring (counting) TTL pulses coming from a TTL driver. They are about 1 us long and nominal TTL high and low values. The pulses look fine on a scope. The rate is very low, typically a few Hz up to perhaps 200 Hz. The behavior is the same regardless of whether I have the input signal connected to the BNC-2110, however. The pulses are ultimately generated by a neutron detector, with a bunch of signal processing in between.
Are you wiring the digital signal directly into PFI 8?
The input signal is connected by BNC cable to the "User 2" port on the BNC-2110. A jumper wire connects the "User2" PFI Terminal to the "PFI-8" PFI Terminal. Again, the behavior is exactly the same regardless of whether these wires are installed or not.
Have your tried using the other counter (CTR1) on the 6133?
The behavior is exactly the same on ctr1, which has no wires connected to it.
You may also try generating a pulse signal from the 6133 and reading it with this VI to determine if your source may be the issue (you could use PFI 2 as a Digital Output for this).
I tried running a "test panel" in MAX to count the 20 MHz internally generated signal. It gave the exact same results, on both ctr0 and ctr1. It did not throw any error message.
Finally, does it read the same value every time you run it (the reported 3.2e9)?
It reads the same value every time I run the sample VI or test panel (3217997774) on both channels, except that the number changes to a different constant number (very close) when I reboot the computer.
I have been wondering if the problem might be associated with the configuration of the ports on the PCI-6133. The manual repeatedly says that you can configure the ports to input or output, for example, but it is not clear to me how to do that. When I right-click the device in MAX, "Configure" is not one of the choices, despite what it says in the "Getting Started" manual.
Again, thanks for your help.
Take care,
Andyaina

Field Number(19,8) always returns Zero!

Thanks for reading this
I am developing an application in VB6 on
NT 4 SP5 and have come accross a very strange
error. This project is a migration from
Sequel Server, I am redoing an ACCESS application.
In one of the tables, the Latitude and Longitude is stored as of Type Number(19,8)
(don't ask why - I didn't design the tables).
All of the data is being retrieved through disconnected ADO recordsets. The data is being written with ADO connection SQL statements.
Writing of the values through the Oracle ODBC driver seems to work properly (8.01.05 - 02/02/99). When I read the values through a ADO Recordset query, the latitude and longitude always returns 0 (when they are not null).
I tried switching to the Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle, and that driver works fine. The latitude and longitude are correct.
I can view the data fine through SQL Plus or
ACCESS via linked Tables, so the data is OK.
Thanks
John
null

And what does this have to do with JDBC?
There was a bug in one of the earlier 8.x Oracle ODBC drivers that woukld cause this behavior. Get the latest patch version of the driver frorm Oracle support and you will be fine.

Make a number in column A always return a different specific number in column B

I'm trying to create a retirement calculator.
How do I set it up so that no matter where a specific number appears in column A, column B, same row, always returns a different specific number.
This second number cannot be derived from the first mathematically.
example:
Column A your current age is entered in the first cell.
Column B is the Life Expectency Factor (LEF). Before age 70 it is 0. At age 70 that number is 24.7, at 71 it is 26.4 etc.
Column C returns the Minimum Required Distribution (How much one has to withdraw) (B * $IRA = $MinDist)
Depending on the age in the first cell of column A, age 70 could be in any row.
How can I have the LEF in column B move with the age so that no matter in which row age 70 may appear in column A, that row in column B always returns 24.7 and age 71 always returns 26.4... and on.
No matter which row 70 is in, 24.7 is always next to it in the same row. This will go from 70 to 100 each with a specific LEF next to it.
Thanks

Hi Les,
Setup a Lookup table listing the LEF in column B beside each age in column A. Assuming one header row, start with 0 and 0 in A2 and B2, 70 and 24.7 in A3 and B3, etc.
On your Main table, enter the formula below in the first data cell of Main::column B (B2, again assuming a single header row for labels). Fill the formula down to the end of the table.
Main::B2: =LOOKUP(A,Lookup::$A,Lookup::$B)
Fill the formula to the end of column B
Numbers on the lookup table on the right are from the (US) government Social Security Administration Actuarial Life Table, and may not (do not, for the two examples in your post) agree with those you are using.

Barry

APEX_UTIL.GET_PRINT_DOCUMENT always returning empty BLOB

Dear community,
I have a huge problem when using the function APEX_UTIL.GET_PRINT_DOCUMENT in a job or database procedure.
The following code runs perfectly when I integrate it in the APEX application directly e.g. using a button to execute it (of course I use an anonymous PL/SQL block in APEX itself). But when I run the same code as a procedure or job in the APEX database itself I always receive a mail with an empty PDF:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE APEX_DRUG_SAFETY.CALL_MAIL
is
l_id number;
l_document BLOB;
BEGIN
wwv_flow_api.set_security_group_id;
l_document := APEX_UTIL.GET_PRINT_DOCUMENT
+(+
p_application_id=>'105',
p_report_query_name=>'TestReport',
p_report_layout_type=>'pdf',
p_document_format=>'pdf'
+);+
l_id := APEX_MAIL.SEND
+(+
p_to        => '[email protected]',
p_from      => '[email protected]',
p_subj      => 'sending PDF via print API',
p_body      => 'Please review the attachment.',
p_body_html => 'Please review the attachment.'
+);+
APEX_MAIL.ADD_ATTACHMENT
+(+
p_mail_id    => l_id,
p_attachment => l_document,
p_filename   => 'mydocument.pdf',
p_mime_type => 'application/pdf'
+);+
wwv_flow_mail.push_queue(
P_SMTP_HOSTNAME => 'DESMTP.TEST.COM',
P_SMTP_PORTNO => '25');
end;
The problem is that the function APEX_UTIL.GET_PRINT_DOCUMENT always returns an empty BLOB when executed outside of the APEX application. I found this issue in several other posts in this forum but I did not find a solution.
The mail transmission itself works perfectly. Also with an attachment if e.g. I use another BLOB already stored in the database for testing purposes. So it is not the mail transmission that causes the problem but the empty variable l_document that is still empty.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Return PDF page number from the name of the link in InDesign CS4 JS

Hi, I need to return pdf page number of the linked file in InDesign.Here what I have so far, but my FilePath comes back undefined, and I am not sure if pageNmuber line would work:
    var myArtBack = app.activeDocument.pages[1].rectangles[0].graphics[0];
    var myArtBackName = myArtBack.itemLink.name;
    var myBackFilePath = myArtBackName.filePath;
    var myPageNumber = myBackFilePath.PDFAttribute.pageNumber;
Your help is highly appreciated.
Yulia

Your first problem is:
var myBackFilePath = myArtBackName.filePath;
That should be:
var myBackFilePath = myArtBack.itemLink.filePath;
What you should have done is something like:
var myLink = myArtBack.itemLink;
var myPageNumber = myLink.parent.pdfAttributes.pageNumber;
Maybe you need the file path for some other purpose, but that's not the route to information about the PDF graphic (the parent of the link) which has the pdfAttributes property -- property names always start with a lowercase letter.

How to arm channel 1 of a PCI 6133 DAQ card using labview?

Hi,
I am new to the Labview and I need some help. I have a PCI 6133 multifunction DAQ card and I'm using Labview 8.2 to capture five channels waveform data. I setup channel ai0 to be the trigger channel and I need to capture data from ai0, ai1, ai2, ai3, and ai4 when ai0 is trigger.
Question:
1) I am using DAQ assistant to configure my channels. How can I arm the channel ai0? I have an "execute button" and it should arm the scope when I click it.
2) Is there trigger ready signal, so I can save all the channels data when channel ai0 is trigger?
Can anyone provide some help?
Thanks

Hello wirte spreedsheet,
Thanks for posting to Discussion Forum. It looks like you are using the
PCI-6133 to acquire analog data from ai0:ai4. You want to use ai0 as
the trigger for the other channels.
Does your application need to be retriggerable?
Are you doing continuous acquisition?
Are you doing Analog start trigger or reference trigger?
Take a look the following shipping examples, found in LabVIEW click
Help>>Find Examples. On the browse tab, Hardware Input and
Output>>DAQmx>>Analog Measurements>>Voltage:
Cont Acq&Graph Voltage - Analog SW Trigger.vi
>> This example demonstrates how to perform an analog software
triggered acquisition. The example allows the user to specify the
triggering condition and the number of pre-trigger samples to acquire.
Cont Acq&Graph Voltage - Int Clk - Analog Start.vi
>> This example demonstrates how to continuously acquire data
(Waveform) using the DAQ device's internal clock and an analog slope
start trigger.
Take a look at these applications and let me know if you have any questions or comments.
Have a good day.

problem was with the parameter you have passed as schema url.
here is the modified code.
problem was in this line.
l_xml_context.isschemavalid('"http://ibtco.com/common/exception/context"');
you have to pass the url as just a string without the double quotest (").
now it returns 1.

Execute oracle stored procedure from C# always returns null

Hi,
I'm trying to execute a stored procedure on oracle 9i. I'm using .Net OracleClient provider.
Apparently, I can execute the stored procedure, but it always returns null as a result (actually all the sp's I have there returns null)! I can execute any text statement against the database successfully, and also I can execute the stored procedure using Toad.
This is not the first time for me to call an oracle stored procedure, but this really is giving me a hard time! Can anyone help please?
Below are the SP, and the code used from .Net to call it, if that can help.
Oracle SP:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE APIECARE.CHECK_EXISTENCE(l_number IN NUMBER) AS
v_status VARCHAR2(5) := NULL;
BEGIN
BEGIN
SELECT CHECK_NO_EXISTENCE(to_char(l_number))
INTO v_status
FROM DUAL;
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
v_status := NULL;
END;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(v_status);
END CHECK_CONTRNO_EXISTENCE;
C# Code:
string connStr = "Data Source=datasource;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=user;Password=pass;Unicode=True";
OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection(connStr);
OracleParameter param1 = new OracleParameter();
param1.ParameterName = "v_status";
param1.OracleType = OracleType.VarChar;
param1.Size = 5;
param1.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input;
OracleParameter param2 = new OracleParameter();
param2.ParameterName = "l_number";
param2.OracleType = OracleType.Number;
param2.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input;
param2.Value = 006550249;
OracleParameter[] oraParams = new OracleParameter[] { param1, param2 };
OracleCommand cmd = new OracleCommand("CHECK_EXISTENCE", conn);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.Parameters.AddRange(oraParams);
conn.Open();
object result = cmd.ExecuteScalar();
conn.Close();

Hi,
Does that actually execute? You're passing two parameters to a procedure that only takews 1 and get no error?
Your stored procedure doesnt return anything and has no output parameters, what are you expecting to be returned exactly?
If you're trying to access V_STATUS you'll need to declare that as either an output parameter of the procedure, or return value of the function, and also access it via accessing Param.Value, not as the result of ExecuteScalar.
See if this helps.
Cheers,
Greg

Select query on table rcv_lots_interface is always returning null

Hi ,
I need a help on the below issue.
The issue is after creating PO in Oracle 11i I receive it in MSCA application.
When we receive it at that point data gets inserted in the table " rcv_transactions_interface " and we have written a trigger on it.
From the trigger on table " rcv_transactions_interface " we are calling a package and in the package we have select query on "rcv_lots_interface."
But the select query is always returning null even though we are passing the correct "interface_transaction_id " and also after the "Receiving Transaction Processor" is executed i can see data in the table " RCV_LOT_TRANSACTIONS " for the same transaction.
Below is the sample code i am using.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER inv.RCV_TRAN_TRIGGER

There are a lot of bugs listed in Metalink with respect to wrong results and function-based indexes.
Here are a few:
Bug 4028186 Wrong results if function based index exists
Bug 4717546 Wrong results / poor plan when function based index exists
Bug 5092688 Wrong results if function based index exists
Based on reviewing them the workarounds range from dropping the index to setting "_disable_function_based_index" to TRUE.Facinating. It seems to me that if you use the undocumented intitialization parameter you might just as well drop the FBIs too.
Another hazard of FBIs is the Law of Unintended Consequences. 2 years ago we tried to use one to speed up a query in a PL/SQL package. Worked OK for that purpose, but an unrelated loader on the affected table ran and rand but never finished until the FBI was dropped.

Output parameters always return null when ExecuteNonQuery - No RefCursor

I am trying to call a procedure through ODP that passes in one input parameter and returns two (non-RefCursor) VARCHAR2 output parameters. I am calling the procedure using ExecuteNonQuery(); however, my parameters always return null. When I run the procedure outside of ODP, such as with SQLPlus or SQL Navigator, the output parameters are populated correctly. For some reason, there appears to be a disconnect inside of ODP. Is there a way to resolve this?
Anyone have this problem?
Here is the basic code:
===========================================================
//     External call of the class below
DBNonCursorParameterTest Tester = new DBNonCursorParameterTest();

               //     Create the input parameter and the output cursor parameter to retrieve data; assign a value to the input parameter;

Other things to note:
I have no problems with returning RefCursors; they work fine. I just don't want to use RefCursors when they are not efficient, and I want to have the ability to return output parameters when I only want to return single values and/or a value from an insert/update/delete.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

GetUsageData is always returning Null

Let me first start out by stating that I know there are many questions on this issue, and I have read them all. However, none of the suggestions that I have read have seemed to help my situation. Therefore, I figure I would supply my code with the hopes
that someone can solve the issue that is mentioned in the title. Let me first supply a little bit of background.
My goal in this code is to determine what are the most visited sites in our SharePoint 2010 farm. To do this, I figured I would cycle through all of the webs in the farm, and then obtain the amount of page views within each site using the GetUsageData function.
Just to test if the GetUsageData was supplying the correct data, I coded the web part in such a way where if GetUsageData returned "Null", it would print it for every site, and "Not Null" if otherwise. In every case I have tested this web part, it has always
returned Null for evey site it has checked.
I am fairly new to programming web parts in C#, so a lot of this code is derived from what I have read when researching the subject. If anyone can assist me to see where I could fix my issue, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you.

Hi, Shiladitya.
Sorry I haven't replied until now. I'll paste the current code I am using, but my solution is not yet complete. What it does as of right now is it creates a data table with all of the webs located in your farm, as well as the total amount of page views for
each web. What I noticed though is that when I compare these stats with the web analytics for the specific web, they don't match. I put the project on hold for this reason, and I might start it back up again soon. Feel free to use the code, and perhaps you
maybe can shed some light on my issue.

CI - Powershell Boolean Rule Always Returns True

I'm trying to create a configuration baseline / item for a particular piece of software using a powershell script of data type Boolean. However, I'm having the issue that the evaluation is always returning compliant whether the workstation is or not. The
script is as follows:
$ErrorActionPreference = "SilentlyContinue"
$Condition1 = (Test-Path -LiteralPath 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Premiere Pro')
$Condition2 = (Test-Path -LiteralPath 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS6\Presets\Textures\720_govt1_bar.png')
if ($Condition1) {
if ($Condition2) {echo $true}
else {echo $false}
else {echo $true}
This script works perfectly fine when run locally and always returns $true or $false as expected. However it only ever returns Compliant when used in a CI. It doesn't matter what the state of the 2 conditions are, it always evaluates Compliant.
Any ideas?

I'm beginning to wonder if there is variation between how well this feature works on Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. I'm beginning to notice that it usually works well on 7 but I have constant hell with it on 8. The last thing I tried which seemed to work (assuming
it was not just randomness) was accepting the default "Platform" settings of the CI/CB. Before I had chosen Windows 7 and 8.1 only and was never able to return any value except Compliant on 8. Accepting the all platforms default Finally
allowed me to show a state of Non-Compliant on 8. This was using a powershell script of string data type as discussed previously.
My latest torment is discovering how to force a true re-evaluation of an updated CI/CB. In my non-compliant Win8 example, I have added a remediation script to an existing Monitor-Only CI and configured it to remediate. In my Win 7 members of the collection,
everything works successfully, the condition is remediated and the state reports Compliant but on the Win8, although the local Control Panel applet shows both the CB and CI to have new revisions and the evaluation shows it has run with a new date/time,
the remediation script never runs and changes to Compliant.
Any suggestions how I can force an updated CI/CB to really re-evaluate, not just report it has?

CHOOSE Menu Malfunction, HP 48G Always returns "0" regardless of selection

I have a choose menu with various functions that prove useful when dealing with circles. I programmed it on my HP 50g and transferred it directly to my HP 48g via ASCII Kermit. The choose menu does not appear to highlight a specific choice as it does on the HP 50g, there is no indication as to which choice is selected, and jumping to menu options via entereing their number also does not function. On the debugger, no matter if OK or Enter is selected on any option "0" is always returned, as if I had cancled out of the menu. Any help would be appreciated. Perhaps CHOOSE menus are slightly different on the HP 48G?

Hi!, Ranothil: Can you write, the program with, global variables << >>, what your create, in your HP50G, for comparision, if are compatible 100% with HP48G ?. I'm have HP48G+/HP49G/HP50G.

public class AddDVDServlet extends HttpServlet {
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
// System.out.println("in AddDVDServlet post method");
List errorMsgs = new LinkedList();
//retrieve form parameters
try{
String title = request.getParameter("title").trim();
String year = request.getParameter("year").trim();
*String gentered = request.getParameter("gentered");
String gselected = request.getParameter("gselected");
String genre="";
if("".equals(gentered))
genre = gselected;
else
genre = gentered;
// System.out.println("parameter retrieved");
if(!year.matches("\\d\\d\\d\\d"))
// System.out.println("year not 4 digit long");
errorMsgs.add("Year must be four digit long");
if("".equals(title))
// System.out.println("title not entered");
errorMsgs.add("Please enter the title of the dvd");
if("".equals(genre))
// System.out.println("genre not valid");zdf
errorMsgs.add("Enter genre.");
if(! errorMsgs.isEmpty())
//System.out.println("errors in entry ");
request.setAttribute("errors",errorMsgs);
// System.out.println("error attribute set in request");
RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("error.view");
rd.forward(request, response);
return;
//create DVDItem instance
DVDItem dvd = new DVDItem(title,year,genre);
request.setAttribute("dvdItem",dvd);
RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("success.view");
rd.forward(request, response);
catch(Exception e){
errorMsgs.add(e.getMessage());
request.setAttribute("errors",errorMsgs);
RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("error.view");
rd.forward(request, response);
e.printStackTrace();
System.out.println("exception:"+e);
why does getParameter always return null??? whats wrong?

I don't know. However, I suspect that because you have a tag with the same name as 'title', its causing a name conflict. Chnage the name to something else. If it works, then that's the likely explaination.
