PCMCIA Low Level Control - Satellite 5100

Hi to all,
I've an important question, my PC (Satellite 5100-503) does not works properly for PCMCIA slot when I want to controll it at low level by means Jungo Drivers (writing and reading of a particular address space for Compact Flash Card device), for others LAP TOP PC (HP) my program works properly.
The question is: do you know if this is a known problem and what driver or ather solutions you propose to solve my problem?
Thanks a lot,
Francesco

Hello Francesco
I cant give you a proper solution because Im not familiar with this Jungo Drivers.
But why did you use these drivers? Why did you not use the Toshiba drivers which will work properly?
I dont believe that you will found an answer for your question in this forum. There are users who search for a solution of common problems.
Good luck
Bye

Low level control of serial port?

Hi there,
We're using LabVIEW 7.1 and I would like to control some low level aspects of the serial port (I'm having a LOT of difficulty connecting to an ABU93 autoburette). Is there a way to set the DTR, DTS RTS and CTS in LabVIEW 7.1? Is this controllable through VISA?
Thanks for any help,
Russ

The serial lines cannot be adressed using the Configure serial port VI. You need to dig a little deeper, and access the modem property node.
See the attached vi.

Low level control of SCXI 1127 relays

Hi,
How can I close or open switches HLSELECT and 1WIRE of SCXI-1127 manually? There is a VI(1WireINDEP) which uses CIN to activate these switches. This VI allows to activate HLSELECT and 1WIRE relays when the SCXI 1127/1128 is used in 1 wire mode as a 64x1 multiplexer. The 1WIRE relay will always connect to 1wirelowref signal. The HLSELECT will connect to Com0+ when H-L Channels is set to Channels 0-31 and to Com0- when H-L Channels is set to Channels 32-63.
I need to control 1WIRE relay just like this VI controls HLSELECT relay. I have attached this VI. Can you please modfiy it or write a different VI to allow controlling 1WIRE relay. I should be able to open and close these two relays (HLSELECT and 1WIRE) manually thro
ugh the VI. If this is not possible, can we modify this VI so that the 1WIRE relay will always connect to com0- signal instead of 1wirelowref signal.
Thanks

Thanks for your reply. My problem is not that simple.I am using NI-SWITCH1.6 and need to continue using it. Can't I just use this VI as sub VI and call it? Here is my problem:
I am building a system to test cables that are open at both ends. A cable can have 4, 6, 8, 10, or 20 wires in it. I wish to test the resistance of each individual wire in a cable and insulation between wires. I have four SCXI 1127 modules with SCXI -1331 in a SCXI 1000 chassis. The switches are controlled by a PCI-4060 DMM.
I have written a VI ( in Labview 6.1, NI-SWITCH 1.6, NI DMM 1.6), which configures DMM for multipoint measurement and SCXI 1127 modules in scanner mode. I connect 1_WIRE_LOW_REF of all SCXI-1331s to a common point, which connects all wires in a cab
le/s under test. So, by using SCXI in scanner mode and generating scanlist, I can measure the resistance of individual wires. I use 1127 in 64 x1 multiplexer mode. This takes care of one requirement.
Now for insulation testing, I keep all wires of cables connected to switch channels and need to connect them in combinations. I can generate the combinations and pass it in a loop to close or open switches. I need help in creating correct paths and route the measurements to DMM.
For example:
Let�s say, we have a four wire cable, I need to test the insulation between them in pairs. There are six possible combinations: 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 2-3, 2-4, 3-4. Let�s say these wire are connected to ch0, ch32, ch1, ch33 of module 4, the VI may need to close the switches as per the paths required (attached in word document).
I just don't know how can it be done.

How to do you control lower levels from the Stage?

How to you control lower levels from the Stage?
I have a button on the main stage and I have a symbol that has another symbol inside that I want to control that timeline or label.
I have had success with going one level deep but not two or three deep.
sym.getSymbol("symbol01").stop("label01");
Any help would be great!
Thanks.

Can you explain the hierachy of your symbols? By this I mean, name of your symbol and any symbol inside and any symbol inside nested symbol and what event you are triggering from where?

Low-level USB control

Hi all,
I'm trying to do some very-low level USB control using Labview. Tasks are:
-Write 1 to output
-Write 0 to output
-Write clock to output.
Very simple tasks (no need to read, just write) , but i need to be able to do this with just a USB cable attached without any device. It will be used to characterize the cable.
The other end of the cable will be terminated appropriately.
If anyone could give me some information for me to start this, that would be extremely helpful.

If you want to do something like setting the pins of a RS-232 port without a device attached, this will not work.
USB works fundamentally differently to RS-232. It is a point-to-point connection. It doesn't work open ended and you don't have direct access to the signal levels at all.
Look for a cheap I/O device instead and use it for testing.
Shane.

Satellite L670 19E low level background noise

Hi
Recently purchsed an L670, downgraded it from windows 7 to Xp and now find that there is a very low level noise being emitted through headphones which seems to be associated with hard drive background operation, can anyone suggest how i can fix it its driving me mad!
thanks

Hi
Did you notice this noise coming from speakers too or just using the headphones?
To be honest its hard to say what could cause this
Maybe you should change some settings in sound option
Decrease the mic and other controls for testing purposes...

Replace my notebook drive in a Toshiba Satellite 5100/5105 - Experience?

I plan to replace the failing CDRW/DVD-drive in my Toshiba Satellite 5100-503 (european version, it was sold as 5105 in the US and other countries).
The built-in drive is a UJDA730.
As upgrade I consider the highly regarded a Slimline DVD+/-RW drive. Unfortunately, some research on the internet revealed that upgrading a notebook's optical drive is not as straightforward as one might hope. I had no trouble removing my old drive (you only have to remove the keyboard and unscrew two screws), so I consider myself capable of putting in an new drive instead. However, two problems remain:
-mechanical compatibily: The 6500A appears to have a different front bezel layout. Its eject button and LED are in a different position than that of my current drive, so I doubt I will be able to use my old bezel with the other one. In addition, the bezel of my old drive has a recess in the lower right corner (similar to that found on some Fujitsu-Siemens notebooks), which gives room for the volume control of the notebook. So I cannot reuse the old bezel, and the NEC's bezel will probably not allow me to close the drive's tray. I wonder if some Dremel-work on the plastic parts of the NEC drive will allow me to fit it in physically. Has anybody tried that?
-electronical compatibility: notebook drives generally do not have jumpers to change their Master/Slave/cable select configuration. Instead this is set within the firmware, so changing it requires flashing a new firmware, which is not easy to come by and hard to do if your drive is not even recognized. SO I need to find out whether my notebooks needs the optical drive set to master, slave. cable select or "inverse cable select". Can anyone help me here, either by own experience or by directing me to an appropriate source on the web?

@chris_cool: I very well know that the drive is not removable like the one in the 5200 or many other notebooks. But it is simply wrong that it is "only replaceble with the same model". Slimline drives are standardized, so their mounting holes, connector placement etc. are not the problem. The only problem ist the front bezel (which is made of plastic, and I won't hesitate to cut it to fit to my notebook) and the master/slave setting, which, since it usually cannot be changed via jumper like in standard IDE devices, has to "fit" to the notebook. My primary question is what master/slave-setting my notebook expects from an optical drive. Since the usual system utilities cannot discern a true "master/slave" setting from a master/slave configuration derived by using "cable select", I don't see a way to find this out myself.
BTW: I don't care too much if the bezel of the new drive doesn't look too good on my notebook, as long as it works.
Especially since I will get superior functionality (DVD-recording) while probably paying less than for an original spare part. And going with an external drive is absolutely no option, since I would have no optical drive when taking the notebook along. Even if I did lug the heavy external drive around, most of them need an AC adapter. Some are powered via USB, but since my notebook has only USB 1.1 which only transfers a (theoretical!) maximum of 1,5MByte/s, this would allow reading and writing of CDs at a maximum speed of about 6x-8x. Less functionality, less comfort, and a higher price -> no option.
@danielgaspar76
Do you happen to know the configuration of the replacement drive you bought? Is it in a master, slave or "cable select" or "inverse cable select" configuration?
You say you changed the front bezel... I think this only worked because the drives are from the same manufacturer. I doubt I will be that lucky with the NEC drive, since LED, eject button etc. are in a different place. I don't mind cutting the NEC drive's bezel to fit. It won't look pretty, but I am quite confident that it can be done. Yet not a 100% sure... ;-)
I am not too much concerned about the recovery CD, since I am using Linux with the notebook anyway.

Difference between Low level and Normal IMAQ ?

There are two options in IMAQ palette a low level and a normal one. Both have the same function names and the same icons the only difference being the balck and white icon of low level functions and colored icons of the normal functions. What is the difference between these two and what is the need of making a low level palette of functions ?

Low level imaq functions gives you relatively more function to control the hardware. Buffer functions is one which is not there on the high level palatte

Want to restrict the Purchase order release at lower level...

Dear Friends,
The Problem i am facing is that the release strategy defined in Purchase order is such that it will be released by four authorities,
& When 4th One, The Highest authority releases the order it should not get unreleased by lower level authorities.I want to configure this.
Partially it is completed, as if Tcode me29n is used for cancel release then it is restricted by Going into
SPRO-MM-Purchasing-Purchase Order-Release Procedure for Purchase Order- Define Release Procedure for Purchase Order
& suggesting it there.into Release Indicator
But still it can get unreleased by Tcode me28.
Kindly Suggest,
Gaurav Chopra

Hi,
This is the standard like release srtetegy will not have the restriction only the release do the release . He can also should de release the document.
this can't control.

How can I get low level access to netstream using OSMF?

Hi
I'm trying to gain access to the low level netstream underneath the hood of OSMF so that I can access its netstream.info property for reading metrics.
I find that I am able to do this for MP4 videos but not for F4M dynamic streaming videos.
For MP4, I was successfully able to create a VideoElement that used a CustomNetLoader class which overrided the createNetStream method to return a netstream object.
However, for F4M, I have to use either the MediaFactory.createMediaElement(element) method or the F4MElement. The F4MElement does not allow a CustomNetLoader to be used and it seems to only accept a F4MLoader class.
Any advice on how I can access either the netstream object or the metrics of F4M videos?
Thanks

ok, I finally got access to the direct netstream object - someone from Akamai gave me the answer.
Seeing how I wasn't able to find this answer anywhere on Google, I'm going to post the solution here as there's no way I would have known this solution without someone who knew how to get direct access to the netsteam object in OSMF.
There's a hidden class that won't show up in the code hint called org.osmf.net.NetStreamLoadTrait that you have to import.
1) First, your media player playing controlling your MediaElement has to listen for a LoadEvent.LOAD_STATE_CHANGE event after you load the MediaElement into the media player
mediaPlayer.addEventListener(LoadEvent.LOAD_STATE_CHANGE, onLoadStateChange);
2) Upon LoadEvent.LOAD_STATE_CHANGE, check for a org.osmf.traits.LoadState.READY - you can only access the NetStream object when it is LoadState.READY or the netstream object will return as null.
private function onLoadStateChange(e:LoadEvent)
                              if(e.loadState == LoadState.READY)
3) Once the LoadState.READY is true, you can create a datatype of NetStreamLoadTrait and type cast it from a Load trait:
private function onLoadStateChange(e:LoadEvent)
if(e.loadState == LoadState.READY)
     var nsLoadTrait:NetStreamLoadTrait = mediaPlayer.media.getTrait(MediaTraitType.LOAD) as NetStreamLoadTrait;
4) Once you successfully type cast the Media Load Trait from your media into NetStreamLoadTrait, you can access the property netstream from the NetStreamLoadTrait object.
private function onLoadStateChange(e:LoadEvent)
if(e.loadState == LoadState.READY)
     var nsLoadTrait:NetStreamLoadTrait = mediaPlayer.media.getTrait(MediaTraitType.LOAD) as NetStreamLoadTrait;
     var ns:NetStream = nsLoadTrait.netStream;
Hope this helps someone out there.

Cumulation of lower level item prices to higher level items

Hi,
We have a specific requirement that we use high-level materials that is not relevant for pricing and lower level items connected to higher-level item that are RA and billing relevant. How do we modify the pricing procedure to cumulate (roll-up) the lower level items to higher level item which is not price relevant but statistical value should be updated at this level for billing purpose.
We want to achieve this using/modifying only pricing procedure and not via user exit..
Request SAP experts to provide some inputs to this issue..
BR/Rajasekhar

Hi rajsekhar
But generally if you want to transfer the cost of the sub item to main item then you can check the box Cumulative cost in copy control VTFL . But your requirement is quite opposite .So you need to go to assign a New Reqt / Alt calc type to the cond type , telling that the header item cost which is not relevant for pricing has to be transferred to sub item .So you need to integrate with the ABAP'er to give inputs to him and giving our requirement also

Low-Level or High-Level for GUI ?

I am developing a MIDLet that has to run CLDC-1.1 MIDP-2.0 Devices. The MIDLet has a simple user interface, and there is no gaming. I developed the MIDLet using the high-level GUI class, but I discovered that this class is nice, yet limited. Now I am investigating using the low level canvas class for the GUI. Is it possible to maintain cross-platform compatibility with the canvas, or should I stick with the high-level class?

High Level Group
Classes provided are
     Perfect for development of MIDlets that target the maximum number of devices
     Heavily abstracted to provide minimal control over their look and feel
     Classes do not provide exact control over their display
Low Level Group
Classes provided are
     Perfect for MIDlets where we want precise control over the location and display of the UI elements
     If more control there is comes less portability It may not be deployable on certain devices
Cheers,
Rohan Chandane

High level and low level grabs

Hi, I'm looking at different acquisition options. Fast acquisition is a priority as is fast processing. I'm a little confused on high level versus low level. Is there any benefit to which one is used? Or is it 6 one way and 1/2 a dozen the other. Thanks

If you feel comfortable using the Low Level functions I would personally recommend using them instead of the High Level. Bruce's answer is correct, high level will call low level with standard options selected. If you think of ways to improve the speed of your code, you may want to use low level, my reason is because high level VIs will actually be a function call calling other functions, which introduces a minimum delay, instead, if you use low level you are directly calling the functions for acquisition so there is kind of a small time saving if you think of it as acquisition wise.
Also, the high level VIs if you check their block diagram it has more structures for error checking, session ID checking, etc., so with low level you have direct control over the acquisitio
n from your main program without introducing innecessary structures or functions.

USB Camera and Low level VIs

Hello all,
I am beginner in LabView and I am seeking help for the following:
I need to adapt a vi using a regular (analog) camera so to start using a USB camera instead. When I viewed the block diagram (which is really complicated for me) I noticed that the original programmer used the low level IMAQ VI's (e.g. IMAQ intil.vi and IMAQ configure Buffer.vi) to communicate, control and acquire images from the camera. Now, I am really confused, does these VIs work with all cameras? If not can I replace them with the IMAQ USB VIs'? How would this affect the other VIs that depends on the out come of the replaced ones? Finally, I would be glad if anyone can point out things to read so to acquire more knowledge about this subject?
I know I asked much but really I want to learn these things as fast as possible
Best Regards
Mohammed

Hello TomBaum,
First, thanks for responding, really appreciate it.
Sorry that I cant send the Vi itself yet I have attached a picture of the part
that I want to modify (red rectangle).
All I want to do is using USB camera instead of the one used now! so does
these low level VIs work with the USB camera
or I should use the USB camera VIs which will mean that i will end up with many
broken wires since low-level VIs has
different number on inputs that the USB camera VIs
Hope this can give you an idea.
P.S. in case you will wonder about the sequence structure; it is only the
camera setting that I am interested and it is the one shown in the
structure
All the broken wires in the picture are going into a very larg while loop with
many other VIs.
Regards

Low level format

how can i low level format the hard drive from my satellite m108 laptop

"True" low level formatting went out years ago (except for some possible HDD factory processes), though there are plenty of shareware utilities still out there that use this term, but are really just performing disk wipes. Is this what are you attempting to do? You can do what's referred to as a Department of Defense (DOD) wipe (three 0/1 passes over every sector and track) with Symantec's GDISK utility or even use Microsoft's DISKPART to execute a similar type wipe.
