Read and write data at different rates, parallel loops.

Machine monitoring and datalogging application.
imple question, maybe not so simple answer.
I want to read fieldpoint channels at a certain rate, say every 2 seconds, so I can verify satisfactory operating conditions of a machine under test.
I then want to write these values to a file at less frequent intervals, say once an hour, as I have no need to record all the data if the machine is running correctly.
I thought parallel loops with "wait until next ms multiple" would be the way to go, but I am having trouble ensuring that the slower loop actually grabs the values I need. I am not clear on the intricacies of shared variables, local variable, and queues and not sure which way I need to go.
Semaphores didn't seem to work for me as the faster loop grabbed control and the slower loop couldn't sneak in to read its values.
Any help would be much appreciated,
Thanks

 I would use a queue.  As you gather data, enqueue the data.  In the slower loop, process the data queued so far by reading from the queue until it is empty.  You can use the Queue Status vi and then flush the queue to get ready for new data.
Here is some sample code to get you started.

  • Read and Log Data at Different Rates

    Hi all, I
    'm certain this a fairly easy task with the right training but I just can't seem to figure it out.  What I would like to do is be able to read from a source and display the values at one rate while simultaneously storing the data to be analyzed later at a different rate.  For example if I was to read a thermocouple and display the readings every 3 seconds on the screen but only log the data every ten seconds.  What's the most efficient way to accomplish this?  I've come up with ways that have given me the results I want but I know it wasn't good programming practice.  So in an effort to get better, does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks.

  • JSP read and write data in MS-SQL database

    I am new to JSP. I need to write JSP page to read and write data in MS-SQL Database. I wonder if it is different from other database. I couldn't find useful pointers in the web. Please advise. Thanks!!

    Sure, SQL Server is different from Oracle is different from MySQL is different from...
    But all of them can be accessed using JDBC:
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jdbc/
    Maybe you should learn about that for starters.
    You can use SQL tags from JSTL in your JSPs. I'd recommend JSTL highly. No scriptlet code that way. - MOD

  • Read and write data from content repository .

    Hi All,
    We are using content repository to store some document and images on web center server .
    So we have created/setup a content repository on web center .
    Please proivde me some documnet /wiki page to get some idea how can i read and write date in
    content repository .
    You are most welocme to provide some idea /suggestion .
    Thanks,
    Arun.

    Have you already configured webcenter spaces so it can use content server?
    Have you installed the content server seperatly from webcenter or as a part of the webcenter installation?
    Check if you have the webcenter spaces component installed in content server because without i don't think it will work...
    If you already have configured UCM to work with spaces it's quiet easy.
    From your groupspace, open the settings page of your groupspace. Go to the services tab. In the left hand side you can enable the documents services. WHen you have done that, you are able to add the document services taskflows to your pages. Just go to a page in your pagegroup and edit it. Open the resource catalog and you will find some extra taskflows you can add.
    If you haven't configured UCM and webcenter to work together, here some steps that will help you:
    * Integrating UCM with Spaces
         * They both need to use the same LDAP store.
         * Since there is no LDAP server available, we choose for embedded WLS LDAP.
         * Integrating the ucm into apache
              * Stop UCM
              * In /oracle/product/wls10320/WebCenter/ucm/config/config.cfg, check the SocketHostAddressSecurityFilter to contain 127.0.0.1
              * Add the SocketHostAddressSecurityFilter to /oracle/product/wls10320/WebCenter/ucm/admin/bin/intradoc.cfg
              * Add to /oracle/product/wls10320/WebTier/instances/instance1/config/OHS/ohs1/httpd.conf
                   include /oracle/product/wls10320/WebCenter/ucm/data/users/apache22/apache.conf
              * Change the mod_wl_ohs.conf file to
                   <IfModule weblogic_module>
                         WebLogicHost localhost
                         WebLogicPort 7001
                         Debug ON
                         WLLogFile /tmp/weblogic.log
                   </IfModule>

    We don't have many samples left for Windows Phone 7 + Azure, the closest one to what you want to do is probably:
    Using Local Storage with OData on Windows Phone To Reduce Network Bandwidth
    this sample uses the local database feature: 'LINQ to SQL', available to Windows Phone 7.1 and 8.0 Silverlight applications, instead of simple file storage but even if you choose to stick with simple file storage I believe you should be able to adapt the
    networking related portions of the sample to your particular application.

  • How to read and write data from Excel to TestStand without using LabVIEW VIs

    Hi,
    How can I read in columns of data from Excel into a TestStand array and write columns of data to Excel from TestStand without using LabVIEW VIs?
    I don't think the Property Loader custom step type in TestStand will work because the data I would like to read in from Excel is in a column that is thousands of rows long and the data has to be in the proper format to use the Property Loader to load in an array from Excel.
    Thanks for your help.

    That example does not use LabVIEW and it does about 40% of what you need to do by calling Excel through ActiveX. If you don't know how to use Excel through ActiveX then you'll need to brush up on that.

  • Read and write data from / to cube in CUSTOM_LOGIC BADI

    Here are the details:
    BPC displays a set of details - with 5 rows and 5 columns. There are 50 additional rows for the 5 columns which are blank to start with.
    User changes a cell. BPC 10 only sends that cell which is changed by the user in CUSTOM_LOGIC and WRITE_BACK BADIs.
    I need to get other 5 X 5 cells (other than 1 cell, which is changed and being passed in the BADIs) details to determine all the details and calculate the additional 50 rows. After calculating these values, i need to update the cube so that the BPC report refreshes with the data i have updated.
    Whats the best way? What are the funtion modules involved in reading / writing? Are there any best practices to read / write data from cube.
    Appreciate your help.

    Hi Ravan,
    Look at my sample write back badi here: http://scn.sap.com/message/14290977#14290977
    At the end of the code I have values updated in ct_data. The contents of ct_data will be automatically written to the cube (you don't need to have special code to write data).

  • Urgent: Please help. how to solve the time delay during buffer read and write using vc++

    I need to continuously acquire data from daqmx card, write into a file and at the same time corelate (in terms of time) the data with signals from other instruments. The current problem is that there is time delay during read and write data into buffer,thus causing misalignment of the data from multiple instruments. Is there a way to solve  the delay? or Is there a way to mark the time of the data acquisition in the buffer?  If I know the starting time (e.g. 0) of data acquisition and sampling rate (e.g. 1kHz), can I simply add 1ms to each data sample in the buffer? The current code is shown below.

    Hello kgy,
    It is a bit of a judgment call. You should just choose the board that you think has the most to do with your issue. For example, this issue was much more focused on setting up your data acquisition task than the Measurement Studio environment/tools, so the MultifunctionDAQ board would have been the best place for it. As for moving your post to another board, I do not believe that is possible.
