Ramp-up

Hello all,
As soon as I am concerned, EP7.1 will include a new funcionality that allows to the final user to change the visualization order & to show/hide the top level navigation tabs.
1. Could you provide me information about it? links, documentation....
2. This funcionality will be avaiable in EP7 with any SP??
Thanks in advance!
Abi.

Hi Abi,
First, welcome on SDN! About your question:
That is the so-called SAP NetWeaver Business Client (NWBC) ; for some basic info, see SAP NetWeaver Business Client
As far as I can see, there is still no product line defined with which it will appear (many press releases talk of A1S, but that's a story for it's own).
So Malini's hint doesn't work...
Hope it helps

FCP clip time remapping / speed ramping question re realtime after changes?

Hello All,
My first post here! I tried searches for this topic but didn't find....
I wasted hours today messing with the keyframe editor to try and ramp parts of a single clip... first time using this feature and couldn't follow the manual! way too difficult to grasp without fluency in 'techygeekconfusic' lingo. Anyway, I don't think the topic was covered from what I read in my version of the manual.
So I went straight for the keyframe editor graphic display under the clip in timeframe and put in a few points with the pen tool (using time graph blue line) and seemed to be going great until I realised that the segments in the single clip (ten minutes long) that I was adjusting were affecting what came after - ie slowing down the remainder of the clip. And that was all I could get from my manual that this happened without any explanation about stopping it happen by letting the outpoint of the clip readjust automatically for the changes made to that part of clip so that altered clip would be shorter in timeline...
I then tried again from the start but noting the minus time on pentool arrow when I slid each keyframe point back and subtracting it from the duration in motion tab and that seemed to work for a while...
but God bless my little brain! what I really wanted to happen - for the blasted thing to readjust itself automatically after I had adjusted a segment of the clip so that the remaining non-adjusted part would play in realtime with a new shorter outpoint in the sequence timeline - just couldn't be realised in my little brain or in the 'user friendly' control panels of FCP.
I tried to get hold of the 'bezier' point at the end of clip and drag forward at the same rate as each change but could'nt get hold of it! I tried to put two points with pen tool at same time but couldn't isolate them from one another to create four points for adjustment without having still frames between.. blah blah.. I tried to get snapping to the pen tool points for further control but couldn't... duh!
Please! how do you do it! obviously I have limited intelligence but I need to do this now. I want to adjust the 10 minute clip (DVCproHD 720p24N format - not that this should matter as my sequence settings are same) adjust the clip at maybe 10 different places so that it ramps in speed to cover up some boring areas and then back to normal speed after the changes - not back to some slo mo **! speed.
I tried cutting with the razor tool to isolate and that didn't work either and other analogue brain type stuff ok I know you are laughing at me now but please help?!! I'm pretty new to this stuff, give me the old reliable Steenbeck and a few real bins and strips of film hanging on clothes pegs and I'll be ok...
Help will be most gratefully appreciated!!!!!!!!

Andy did a very good job explaining the underlying problem with the time remap tool.
The key thing to remember is the first and last frame are fixed in time. If you speed up the clip, time after that keyframe will have to slow down to compensate. Imagine the clip is a rubber band that has been cut so that it is a long string-like form. Now imagine anchoring each end of it with a push pin to a board. If you grab a point on the band and pull it toward one of the pins, the part of the band on the side you are pulling away from the anchor will stretch (run slower) and the side you are pulling toward will bunch up (run faster). But, when all is done, the start and end will still be at the fixed points.
The way I've worked through this is to make a general guesstimate of how long the clip will be once all the ramping is complete. For example, I want the clip to start at normal (100%) speed and ramp up to 300% and back down to 100%. I might start with a clip having a constant speed of 200% and then change it to variable and play with it. The key concept is if you can get the overall LENGTH to where it should be, the rest works out fine.
I have repeatedly asked in the FEEDBACK/New Features page that they add a toggle to the speed/time remap tools. This toggle should allow you decide whether the playback TIME for the clip should be fixed or flexible.
For example, if you were working with a 4 second clip and wish to slow it down by 50% -
If 'Maintain Time' is toggled ON, when you decrease the speed of clip by 50% - the clip will still play for 4 sec (but will show only half the total frames).
If the toggle is OFF, the 4 sec clip will now play for 8 sec and will display all the frames.
Where this concept becomes really powerful is when it's applied to time remap. If you have 'Maintain time' toggled OFF, as you adjust speed, the end point of the clip will float in time. If you increase the speed, the overall time of the clip will shrink. If you slow it down, the end point moves out in time.
We need to keep asking ...

How can I view the color ramp in LV 8.6 sensor-mapping express vi during run-time?

Hi All,
I've been using the sensor mapping express VI that is new in LV 8.6. When I place the express vi in my block diagram of my main vi I get the normal 'express' style configuration dialog. As a part of the configuration there is a really nice 'color-ramp' control where I can configure ranges; max; min; out -of-range colors and so on.
What I would like to do is have the color-ramp control appear as a control on my main vi's front panel. After I convert the express VI to a regular VI I can't seem to find the connection to this control. Although I have found the sub-vi that the expressvi uses in an .llb here:
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.6\vi.lib\express\express 3d picture\SensorConfig.llb
Can anyone point me in the right direction to do this? I get so deep into all the sub-vi's I end up getting lost-haha!
Thanks - Paul

The characteristics of the color ramp (max, min, colors) are all part of a "colorrampstuff" cluster that is inside the Sensor Mapping express VI. In order to change those values for the express VI, you will need to create a custom express VI that provides you with inputs to this cluster. This is done similarly to creating a subVI. Then you can use a variety of methods to write to the elements in this cluster and change them while the program is running.
It may be easier to place numeric controls on the front panel that write directly to the elements in the cluster than to use a color ramp as a control.

SAP BPC 7.0NW (project in Ramp-Up)

Hi,
We are doing 2 Ramp-Ups currently on the BPC for Netweaver version, and I have a question relating to script logic.
Knowing the Microsoft version very well, we are quite experienced with using logic for budgeting or forecasting purposes. I have read that ABAP/BADI's are the alternative for SQL Logic or could be. In fact, I am looking for the alternative statements of the SQL logic, but then Netweaver-compatible.
- Is there information available on how to write BPC-logic based on ABAP/BADI's?
- Will all of the SQL logic available in the Microsoft version become fully available in the NW version (now very limited availability)?
Thx
Bjorn Van Damme

Hi Bjorn,
The alternative to SQL based script logic in SAP BPC NetWeaver would be MDX based functions. There are 2 methods that you can utilize.
1. MDX based functions
2. ABAP based functions/ BADI's
SQL Logic in NetWeaver environment doesn't work. You may try utlizing microsoft based MDX in NetWeaver environment. Well, it is up to you if you are able to utilize BADI's too prefereable method in terms of NewWeaver environment. You may have to get the information from SAP regarding what standard functions are available in writing script logic using ABAP/BADI's.
Regards,
Sreekanth.

Using a timer to ramp up voltage in code?

I'm currently using a small VI for the Xandrex XPD power supplies, and I have to automate this program so that the voltage will ramp up, say .2 volts every 500 milliseconds to a user defined voltage (say 15Volts). While I know some basic loops can do this, I am somewhat green with LabView and any help that could be given would be much appreciated. Right now my VI can set current limits and voltages on the PSU. With that out of the way I believe there shouldn't be much more needed in the VI to create a ramp time.
I have attached a picture of my block diagram, if there is anything else that's needed I'll post it up. Thanks!

Here's the VI in 8.0 form. One thing to be aware of is that the time between steps will not be exactly 500msec because Windows is not a realtime (deterministic) operating system. Most of the time it will be very close, but if something happens that severely loads the CPU it is possible for the value to increase significantly.

To resolve step 3, remove the EXTBIND=1 parameter from the instance profile. EXTBIND is only needed when using ports < 1024.

Thanks very much for taking the time to post the info Florian. I will update this thread as well if I run into any new information.
Do we have any idea on SAP's direction for Product Definition? PD is still version 2.0 and I heard that PD functionality will be incorporated into PPM 5.0 which does make a lot of sense. I very briefly went through the notes and config doc in this post and did not get the impression that PPM has any idea and concept management capabilities.

After Effects CC crashes PC (BSOD) using Gradient Ramp effect

I've done it three times now to make sure, but whenever I make a solid layer and add the gradient ramp effect, and then change the color, it gives me a BSOD. I've had some BSOD issues while using AE for various reasons, and I've gone through solutions considering disk cache, Open GL rendering, multi-core processing, etc. I'm pretty sure I need to replace a piece of hardware, as each BSOD is indicating such, but I've had a hard time determining which. I should note that going to the color palette for something like text doesn't give this issue. So far it's been for the solid layer and gradient ramp. Note that I've also used other plugins, such as Element 3D and Keylight and such without a problem.
I recently signed up for CC so I haven't yet uninstalled CS6, and I'm doing that as I write this.
My computer is running 64-bit Windows 7, has updated drivers for PSU, ram tested healthy, GPU driver updated, and more. My RAM is 16 GB DDR3 1666 GHz, Processor is AMD Six-Core Phenom 2, GPU is Geforce 470 GTX, and I'm running standard 7200 rpm disk drives. I have intentions to update all of the hardware over time, so I'm wondering if maybe a switch to Intel or an updated GPU might be helpful.
Thanks!
Katie

How to make a ramp affect other layers

I'm trying to create a lower thirds that will include some motion, otherwise I might try Photoshop for this. But basically, I'm trying to create a gradient using ramp in AE so that the lower thrids I've created fades away on the sides. Similar to the image I've attached. I don't know how to make the layer that I put the ramp effect on affect the other layers. Can anyone help?

Dave's method is great.
Like all things AE, there are many ways to accomplish the same thing.
Some alternatives are: Make a black & white gradient ramp on one layer, and use it for a track matte on another matte. You can also use the Set Matte effect to copy the alpha of one layer to another.
There are direct ways to create alpha ramps using 3rd party plug-ins like Ramp Alpha that's in Red Giant's Key Correct and Image Lounge.

Urgent help required: color template - use color ramp instead

hello,
I want to match color using the color matching vi. i understand you need a color template before executing the system.
however i want to give my users the chance to choose any color from a color ramp and then this should be used an input to the color match vi (template). is this possible????
if yes how... i have put a color ramp in the front panel and then put the output to the input of the color match template but get an error: not a template...
thanks

Hi farhan,
Can you please send in some example code, as I can not find the VI you are talking about. The closest match I have is IMAQ Color Match and this does not have a template input.
Please can you also tell me what version of LabVIEW you are using as well.

Hi Simon,
I appreciate your help.
It noticed by me that in the GRC 10 front end system, the component GRCFND_A_V1000 was not installed!!!
How this was missed I dont know. Inspite of this, other component GRCPINW_V1000_700 was installed.
Now I have figured out and installed the correct component and I can now activate the BC sets
Thanks for your rhelp again

How do I control furnace temps (ramp and soak)? What hardware do I need?

Please help me~~~~
I use Labview version 8.2 and Compact Field Point. I currently have a small Lindberg/Blue furnace (120V, 6.8A, 8KW) that has a mounted Lindberg/Blue UP150 programmable controller. The temperature control is not currently connected to my PC (and that's a pain).
I would like to replace the present furnace controller with labview control through Compact Field Point. I need to create a ramp and soak program in labview. My
program must be able to:
Soak at 300C for 30 min
ramp to 650C
soak at 650C for 15 min
ramp to 700C
soak at 700C for 10 min
cool to 300C
repeat the above steps as many times as desired.
I am familar with labview but have never controlled any furnace temps. I have figured out that I will need the PID control toolkit. But I'm totally stumped about the hardware I will need. I have searched everywhere but can't find an explanation. I have Compact Field Point and the furnace. What hardware goes inbetween? Just what hardware does the PID toolkit (PID VI's) send a signal to? It seems to me the PID would read a thermocouple and then send a signal to some sort of current regulator that sends a varying current to the furnace. Am I way off? How do I set this up. Can anyone recommend a good book or web site that explains how to set up furnace control using labview?
I really appreciate your help. I'm at the end of my road without it. Thanks alot.

If you can, use a solid state relay as this will be the most reliable and noise free solution to switching. Switching 8kW loads with a relay can lead to arcing of the contacts after a while (and other issues), this is bad news for computers. For an 8kW device you will need to mount the device on some form of heatsink / dissapation surface. Solid state relays normally use an opto-isolated coupling which can usually be powered in the range 3 to 24v. This is connected to the control output of your selected controller.
For control of this sort I personally I prefer a dedicated controller, I use a PC for data logging, program management and monitoring. This is for reliability more than anything else, an NI controller won't come with integrated display and controls to set the device and the foot print in the panel is considerably larger. They also take an age to boot in comparison. You should also consider that you could get an electrical engineer to fit a standard controller with suitable solid state relay etc. and that will help you meet any health and safety requirements easily and quickly! Don't forget than any modifications will need to meet local regulatory requirements such as CE and thus circuit diagrams must normally be produced etc.
If I have the choice of selecting a controller, I like the Eurotherm range of temperature controllers, they are available with varying options just like the controller mentioned in the thread. There are drivers available in this forum and the NI web site for the devices.
http://www.eurotherm.com/
There is also OPC support and the diagnostic software available from Eurotherm is good.
But if a device has a specific manufacturers controller on it I might select one from the same family. Often I look around the plant / factory and see what models are in use. Using a model / type that already in use makes it easy for support in the factory and reduces support calls!
Hope these thoughts help out.

How to change colors in Color Ramps

Hello,
I would like to use Color Ramps, and I need to change colors. In help documents, it say that I juste have to right click in the icon and change what I want. But I tried all option and I can't do anything I want.
Can you help me ??
Thanks
David

Seems that I'm not the only one to have problems with color ramps...
Nearly everything was explained in the on-line help. Nearly...
"Complete the following steps to change the colors of a color ramp.
1. Right-click the color ramp or a marker and select Marker Spacing»Arbitrary from the shortcut menu to switch the color ramp to arbitrary marker spacing.
2. Use the Operating or Positioning tools to right-click the marker next to the color ramp and select Marker Color from the shortcut menu to change the color associated with a marker.
3. Select the color you want from the color picker that appears."
Additionnal hints :
After switching to arbitrary marker spacing, suppress all intermediate markers (right click> Delete). Then adjust the colors of th
e two remaining end markers. With some ramps, you will be obliged to move slighty the marker position to get a color update.
If you need to insert intermediate colors, add intermediate markers (right click > Add). Using the text tool, type in the exact value associated with the marker. Select the color you want to associate with the marker.
When finished, switch back to uniform marker spacing.
Have fun...

Tracking a ramping signal and checking for range thresholds

I have a signal which ramps at 0.05 volts/second. During this state, there is a possibility that the ramp rate
exceeds the 0.05 v/sec. operation (runaway condition). Does anyone have any ideas about how to track this and
respond to the runaway condition?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

How is the signal being generated? How are you sampling it?
You could just take the difference between two samples and if their rate is out of a certain range, take care of it.

Fan Ramps to High/Loud in Panther and is fine in Tiger?

Just got my Dual 2ghz, the PCI 4gig max Ram version (currently 2.5 gigs installed), and in Panther 10.3.3 the fan begins ramping up after the OS loads and continues to cycle upwards until it reaches what I can only imagine is it's high setting. I stuck some ribbons on the back of the grill and they are floating in the wind. It's the fan on the bottom of the tower underneath the video card connection. I have a Panther partition and a Tiger partition. Tiger seems fine. Panther is a wind tunnel.
Does anyone, hopefully someone at apple, know how to fix this. I would love to stay in 10.3.3 on the Panther partition cause I'm catering to some moody software. Tiger is up to date. If I have to upgrade I will, but can't we fix this issue without upgrading. Is it the Radeon 9600 (128mb, Dual DVI) video card? I've noticed that none of the ATI updates address that card. The system does have problems coming back from sleep in Panther. That's usually caused by PCI cards but maybe the AGP card isn't happy. I should re-seat the card... I will.. Haven't tested sleep in Tiger yet. Seems to be running fine, and the fact that it's ok in Tiger leads me to believe that there has got to be a software fix for this thing. I know the boys and girls at apple are clever enough to fix this. I mean... come on... they brought us Final Cut and iPods. How hard is it to fix a fan? Please don't tell me I have to lug this thing into a nearby repair shop for re-calibration. Hook a brother up. Eagerly awaiting the miracle cure. Thanks for any input towards the fix.

Hi Paul,
The G5 ran this way under Panther from the start. I need the Panther partition until all my software is Tiger capable. Plus my version of Pro Tools LE doesn't recommend that I go to the most up to date version of Panther. I think they recommend 10.3.6 unless I upgrade the Pro Tools software to the next level, which will cost me. You know how it goes. I was just hoping that the system I had on my G4 could be transfered over to my G5 partition and work as well there as it does on the G4, which it does except for the fan issue. I will try a fresh install of Panther since I cloned the drive originally. I'll let ya know what happens. Thanks.

New REACh Release - new features and ramp up

Hi, when is the next release of REACh available and what are the new features? When does ramp up begin?

Michael,
thanks for rising this questions here since this thread/forum is a good way to discuss product requirements in a broader community so that we can consider meanings/ideas from a broader group of stakeholders. And i think that your points require a broader discussion in order to find the right answer at the end. Let me therefore comment as follows on your remarks hoping that others will join this discussion:
1. Legal entitiy specific uses: It is clear that uses might be different across legal entities and registrations of each legal entities might refer to different uses. Nevertheless the idea of SAP REACH Compliance is to collect uses centrally and to let the registrant decide to pick up those uses for the registration which seems to be relevant for the Legal entitiy he or she is responsible for. The REACH coverage check we provide in our solution refers to coverage of endpoints - not to coverage of uses which is at the end as said a decision made by the registrant based on a complete inventory of known uses. Therefore we didn´t saw the need to maintain the relationship of use and legal entity in SAP REACH Compliance so far but before considering this for the product roadmap I would like to get opinions from other companies as well since this would be a major investment/enhancement of the solution. So anyone else reading this poste pleas feel free to comment here - highly appreciated.
2. Exposure scenarios in SAP REACH Compliance: First of all it is important to understand what SAP REACH Compliance is and what is not. The main objectiv of our solution is to fill white gaps and giving support to areas which are not covered by other applications whether they come from ECHA (like IUCLID5) or from industry organizations like CEFIC (REACHsief). To make it more concrete: IUCLID5 was designed for the authorities to receive technical registration dossier to ease correctness check and dossier evaluation. But IUCLID5 does not give management support to those who has to gather data and ellaborate dossiers. That is what SAP´s solution does complementary to IUCLID5. The same shall apply for Exposure scenarios, Chemical Saftey Assessessments and Chemical Safety Reports. ECHA has announced to provide a CSA/CSR tool - so it makes no sense to to this in SAP but to use our application complimentary to that compared to IUCLID5. And Exporsure scenarios? The issue here is that not all guidance documents are released or even published or finalized. So we would shoot here on a moving target which makes no sense. But beside of that there are already scientific tools in place (like ECETOC TRA) that are specialized in calculation of exposures (scenarios) independent of REACH and in most cases already used in tox departments and which compliments therefore our solution as well. Is it really useful that a business software company provides scientific tools like that or isn´t it better to build our solution complimentary to those? Consequence: REACh guidance documents propose mass communication on use descritpor model with many customers and suppliers. This is what we provide in our solution based on beneficial integration into SAP ERP with all its business partner contact data and sales and purchasing related information like purchase info records. But mass mailings based on "descriptor models for exposure scenario" are unlikely to happen and most likely not to be manageable. With regards to ES I see more a case to case communication for unusual uses or with key customers only which is more document driven than structured like the use descriptor model. And that is what you can do with SAP REACH Compliance - assigning documents describing an ES to uses and sending this to business partners. Remains the question whether it is useful at all to maintain ES in SAP (except from assigning document based ES to uses). The point is that ES are work center specific but not susbtance specific. So it might make sense to maintain ES in SAP EH&S component for industry health & safety (IHS) in order to become aware of own Exposure scenarios. But at the end you will define ES that are as much as possible generic covering as many uses as possible and providing this via a document asking for approval by your business partners. And run calculations and risk assessemtns a said in scientific tools from niche vendors specialising in toxicological applications.
Gladly feedback / comments from the community whether this is a correct perception.
