Recommendations for low power Windows Labview controller

I build a lot of battery powered Labview systems.  The lowest power Windows controllers I've been able to find are the Intel Atom based units (e.g. iGoLogic iBox510 at about 3-5 Watts).  I'd love to find something in the 1 Watt or less range.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I'd be willing to consider non-windows solutions if they had really low power consumption.
Thanks - Gene

Yes, that is correct that the modules need to be plugged into a chassis or controller.  I'll take a look into our controllers and see if any of them meet those power constraints.

  • Recommendation for protection of a LabVIEW built application

    Hi all
    I was hoping that someone out there could give me some advice on protecting a LabVIEW built application (the application runs on an operator interface for TestStand and call LabVIEW written modules).
    Any advice on what products work best with TestStand and LabVIEW written applications?
    Would you recommend a hardware or software implementation? (the application is a specialized application and realistically will be sold to a reasonably small number of vendors, should this influence our chose of SW v HW protection implementation.?)
    Do NI provide any software protection products or will we need to work with a 3rd party’s implementation?
    This area is somewhere I have very little experience in so any advice that you could provide would be much appreciated.
    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Hi Alberto
    Thanks a lot for you response. It looks like we will go for the Sentinel Superpro keys option for protection. I have added another post outlining in more detail my specific application, if you have a chance could you have a quick look (its under labVIEW general titled "software pretection"). In you experiance do you think the Sentinel Superpro keys would work well in our case. Any futher input will help our confidence in forking out the cash for the Sentinel Superpro development kit.
    Thanks again for you input

  • Needed: Recommendation for lower-price color inkjet with postscript

    I'd like to keep my total budget for an inkjet printer to under $750 if possible. What are my options, good folks? I am a graphic designer, so I need to be able to proof clean vectors and very good color reproduction. 13 x 19 output would be optimal. I'm thinking the Epson 1400 plus PowerRIP. Any other options out there?

    Then we spent a lot of time with the child on air, walking on wood. After 3 hours of walks Sasha has started to complain of strong weariness and a pain in joints. Have taken temperature. 38,7. The doctor who has suspected a usual sharp respiratorno-virus infection has been immediately caused. Standard antibiotics and warm tea with a raspberry have been appointed. Late at night observed very strong pains in the bottom of a stomach and its pressure (the stomach was «доскообразный»).Fast immediately hospitalised the child in the Central regional hospital of of Balashikha with suspicion on a sharp appendicitis. Emergency operation has been spent, the diagnosis has proved to be true. The peritonitis, an inflammation began. Operation on appendicitis removal has passed successfully. But after operation condition Сашеньки has not improved. The heat (from above 38).В stably kept Every possible analyses of blood, including on rare infectious diseases, have not given results. But viruses of a belly typhus and a salmonella have been found out. Meanwhile a condition of the child promptly worsened. Haemoglobin level was more low 60, the quantity тромбоцитов and лекоцитов has sharply decreased. Donor blood and an intravenous hormone преднизолон was applied. From children's branch of oncology МООД of Balashikha, Svetlana Varfolomeyev has been invited to that moment were зав.отделением which has suspected system disease of blood at the child. Sasha it has been urgently translated in children's oncological branch where the diagnosis «sharp лимфобластный лейкоз» has been exposed, a blood cancer. Pathological бластных cages in a bone brain was more than 96 %.Состояние the child - the hardest. There has been immediately begun antibacterial therapy by antibiotics of a wide spectrum of action, in parallel - massed инфузионная therapy (glucose, физраствор), was applied преднизолон. After a while there has been begun chemotherapy of the sharp period under German report ALL BFM-90.

  • Up-to-date recommendation for a home ESXi 5.1 server?

    Hi,
    a similar thread was here end of last year:
    From: "Joseph Marton" <[email protected]>
    Subject: What processor for a home VMware server?
    Date: Sun, 02 Dec 2012 04:48:11 GMT
    Message-ID: <f4Bus.4$[email protected]>
    Lines: 7
    [snip]
    I'm planning to have a new ESXi at home for just testing VMs and my
    "home file & media" server. On new hardware, main aspect is low power
    consumption, so I was wondering, if a box with internal disks or some
    iSCSI capable NAS, that will power down the disks during idle times
    (e.g. QNAP) would be the better choice.
    Perhaps somebody has done this lately, pointing out recommendations and
    pitfalls to avoid?
    Tx, regards, Rudi.
    PS: the old ESXi at home is a retired, reused old Proliant, consuming
    faaaar to much power...

    Originally Posted by W_Prindl

    processors, fully redundant power supplies and fans, 8 internal SAS
    10k rpm and 15k rpm drives, 8 network interfaces and several other
    add-ons.
    But if only you personally are using these VMs, the utmost power saving
    you get, if you power your server only up, if you need it. Assuming 40
    hours work per week, some weeks out of home on vacation, some hours
    sleep per day gets you easliy down to at least 50% power consumption of
    a 24h/7d working server. And you will have to disconnect the server/PC
    physically from the mains via an own mains switch to get down to zero
    power consumption during power off - the power consumption of a server
    in standby (for NICs and ILO management etc) can be more than 10W,
    which I find quite bad if you really power down the server to save
    energy - if you just power down servers for maintenance and
    reconfiguration, that's of course irrelevant.

    Typically VMWare has you modify the BIOS to not do any power-saving, although I suppose you could "sleep" the guest VM's.

  • Low power warning for AIR-LAP1242AG-C-K9

    Hi Buddie,
    We purchased some AIR-LAP1242AG-C-K9 , but not perchasing any wireless controller. When I connect the LAP to Cat2950 or Cat2960 PPoE port, all the LAP can not boot normally. It indicates low power, please refer the two pictures attached. But if I use external power cable, the LAP can work well. So, I would like to know two things.
    1. Can I use LAP standalone without using controller ?
    2. If the above is Yes, how should I configure the PPoE on cat2950 to Support LAP correctly?
    Thank you very much.

    Hi Jian,
    Q. Can an LAP operate independent of a wireless LAN controller (WLC)?
    A. No, LAPs cannot function independent of WLCs. LAPs function in conjunction with a WLC only. The reason is that the WLC provides all the configuration parameters and firmware that the LAP needs in the registration process.
    So you will need to either send the AP's back and get the IOS version, purchase a WLC or convert the LAP to IOS :(
    Q. How do I distinguish between a regular (autonomous) AP and an LAP?
    A. The easiest way to distinguish between a regular AP and a LAP is to look at the part number of the AP.
    LAP (Lightweight AP Protocol [LWAPP])?Part numbers always begin with AIR-LAPXXXX.
    Autonomous AP (Cisco IOS? Software)?Part numbers always begin with AIR-APXXXX.
    From this good Q&A doc;
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps430/products_qanda_item09186a00806a4da3.shtml
    You can convert an access point from lightweight mode back to autonomous mode by loading a Cisco IOS Release that supports autonomous mode (Cisco IOS release 12.3(7)JA or earlier). If the access point is associated to a controller, you can use the controller to load the Cisco IOS release. If the access point is not associated to a controller, you can load the Cisco IOS release using TFTP.
    Using a TFTP Server to Return to a Previous Release
    Follow these steps to revert from LWAPP mode to autonomous mode by loading a Cisco IOS release using a TFTP server:
    Step 1 The static IP address of the PC on which your TFTP server software runs should be between 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.0.30.
    Step 2 Make sure that the PC contains the access point image file (such as c1200-k9w7-tar.122-15.JA.tar for a 1200 series access point) in the TFTP server folder and that the TFTP server is activated.
    Step 3 Rename the access point image file in the TFTP server folder to c1200-k9w7-tar.default for a 1200 series access point, c1130-k9w7-tar.default for an 1130 series access point, and c1240-k9w7-tar.default for a 1240 series access point.
    Step 4 Connect the PC to the access point using a Category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet cable.
    Step 5 Disconnect power from the access point.
    Step 6 Press and hold MODE while you reconnect power to the access point.
    Step 7 Hold the MODE button until the status LED turns red (approximately 20 to 30 seconds) and then release.
    Step 8 Wait until the access point reboots, as indicated by all LEDs turning green followed by the Status LED blinking green.
    Step 9 After the access point reboots, reconfigure it using the GUI or the CLI.
    From this doc;
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps430/prod_technical_reference09186a00804fc3dc.html#wp161272

  • Recommendations for userva option in Windows 2003

    Hello,
    we are running ERP2005 on Windows 2003 32Bit and Oracle 10.2.
    We activated the /3GB option in the boot.ini
    Due to problems we wan't to activate the userva option.
    Unfortunalely i can't find any recommendation for the value of userva.
    Please give me an advice.
    Kind regards
    Mathias Dieckhoff

    well it is as Eric already mentioned:
    1st recommendation: Go for 64 Bit!
    2nd recommendation:
    decrease the user address space carefully if you have to.
    start with /userva=2900, if the problem still happens change /userva step by step to lower values each time evaluating wether the new value has fixed the situation.
    the problem with /userva is, that it shortens the virtual address space (addressable memory for normal applications). with /userva=2700 your application is able to address 2.7 GB of virtual memory, the remaining 1.3 GB can only be used in kernel mode (operating system, drivers etc). In this case (/userva=2700) your application (ABAP Report, other memory consuming programs) can only utilize 300 MB less memory compared to /userva not set.
    Those ABAP reports currently utilizing 95 percent of the available address space will no longer run when /userva is set to 2700.
    It is much less pain to run on 64 Bit OS - you don't have to play around with all these funny parameters.

    Have you looked at the Linux version of the Sharp Zaurus SL-5500 PDA. I
    believe there are several Intel processor based PDAs that can run Linux.
    Since they can run Linux, they can run LabVIEW for Linux. Wow, that's
    awfully simple... perhaps I should get one. A used one on Amazon is
    $380. Tell us how it goes.

  • Low power on USB port for external hard drive

    Hi all!
    I'm new here and I have some question about my brand new hybrid - HP Envy x2.
    Couple days ago i found an issue that usb ports are powered by from motherboard even when tablet with dock is turned off or in hibernation mode. This is problematic when I leave device with plugged usb hub, external HD, speakers (powered from usb port) and mouse. After 8 hours in work when I go back home I saw that battery is about 10-15% lower than before leaving Envy x2. I disabled USB charge mode in BIOS, but after that I have problem with working of my external HD.
    When I try to attach hard drive to computer and then I try to turn it on nothing happens - looks like system (Windows 8.1) can't boot. But after immediate unplugging HDD from USB system goes to procedure of starting. I also tried to plug Toshiba HD after turning on my Envy x2 and being in desktop, but nothing happens. Light on HD is blinking, I can hear from it sound like clicking (trying to start?). Also HD is visible in Device Manager but not in My Computer (as additional partition).
    I have tried to change boot options in BIOS by positioning of devices (priority to boot from CD ROM, HDD, OS etc.) but did not fixed problem. 
    After couple of tests provided to found why my HD did not work properely in disabled USB charge mode I know that USB port did not give minimum value of power from supply. I found cable with one plug on one side, and with two plugs on other side (like "Y" type). Then i plugged one end into first USB port, then second end in second USB port and finally - last end of cable to m HD and booooom! It works!
    Here is my question: Is there any ability to change that kind of power supply on USB ports? I want to power mu external hard drive from one USB port, not from two. I have USB hub but don't want to use two USB ports (on the opposite positions of docking station) and additional USB cable. I have the most recent BIOS (F12) and all fresh drivers installed on my computer.
    Any solutions?

    I am not going to take credit for this. I had a similar problem, but all of my USB ports stopped working for EVERYTHING! You were right on track, and here is the final bit of information that you needed: Microsoft Surface tablet External USB hard drives auto-sleep in Windows 8.1 Posted on November 4, 2013 After upgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 Pro, my SeaGate Expansion 2TB hard drive always runs to sleep mode automatically and then disappears if no file transfers occur. when I try to access its stored files, the File Explorer will be unresponsive. Changing the power options is not working. In Windows 8.1 the external USB hard drives and USB flash drives are configured with a low power state by default. That causes USB massstorage devices auto-sleep or file transfers stop unexpectedly.

  • Recommendations for running Windows on Macbook with OSX Lion version 10.7.2?

    I Just bought a new MacBook Pro, running Lion, version 10.7.2. I am looking to run some windows applications on my mac, including AutoCAD, etc. I would ideally like to install bootcamp on my MacBook, but from what i understand, Lion is only compatible with Windows 7... I have Windows XP and VMWARE Fusion that I had run on my previous MacBook, however, I am unable to install VMWARE Fusion on my new MacBook (Lion). Any recommendations for running higher-profile windows apps on a mac without having to purchase Windows7 or a new version of VMWARE? Thanks

    Newer computer = newer drivers and apps. You can only run Windows 7 using Boot Camp Assistant with the newer computers. Or, you can download and install Parallels or Fusion (the most current versions work in Lion). If using Parallels or Fusion you can install XP, Vista, Windows 7, etc.
    Or, you could try the free VirtualBox.

  • I want to use QuickBooks for my very snmall bussinesso the recommendation from my accountant was QuickBooks (Windows). I just do not understand enough to decide whether to buy QuickBooks for Apple or Windows and use it in the Parallels world?

    I want to use QuickBooks for my very small bussiness, the recommendation from my accountant was QuickBooks (Windows). I just do not understand enough to decide whether to buy QuickBooks for Apple or Windows and use it in the Parallels world?

    QuickBooks for Mac has been available again since at least 2004 (Intuit before that had done nothing with it for years). The current version is QB for Mac 2014. It's pretty much the same price no matter where you look.
    The Mac version data is not directly compatible with the Windows version. Sending your data out to your business tax accountant and getting it back in is not at all easy. It's such a pain, our accountant comes here to finalize the books at year end.
    There is still also a lot of Windows features for QB Pro which have never been added to the Mac version. They're all on the higher end side that larger businesses would need. I've never run into anything with the Mac version I couldn't do.
    If your accountant wants ease of data transfer, then you'd be better off purchasing Snow Leopard Server and run that in Parallels. Then run the Windows version of QB in that.

  • Recommendations for configuring DSEE 6.3.1 to run as a Windows service?

    Hi All, I need some recommendations for configuring DSEE to run as a Windows service. Currently I have CACAO, DSCC, and the Web Console configured and running as Windows services and this works fine. I would like to configure the directory itself to run as a Windows service so that it will restart automatically if the server reboots for any reason. Using dsadm enable-service --type WIN_SERVICE I configured this but initial testing indicated that the service will fail to start automatically on reboot. I can start it manually once the server is rebooted. This appears to indicate a dependancy of some sort with one of the other services like CACAO or DSCC but I did not see any documentation on this. Does anyone know the appropriate way to configure the directory to run as a Windows service? Thanks.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

    There is an entry in the application-management-common-agent-container log

    Which was the problem. The zone was picking up a stale NIS map with the wrong hosname for its IP address.

  • I have Mac OSX Lion 10.7.4, Quickbooks Pro 2010, Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac, Operating in Windows 7.  Are there any recommendations for running Quickbooks Pro 2010?

    I have Mac OSX Lion 10.7.4, Quickbooks Pro 2010, Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac, Operating in Windows 7.  Quicbooks Pro 2010 is not responding or opening currently. Quickbooks does not support Parallels anymore.  I hear Apple Bootcamp is an opton.  Are there any recommendations for running Quickbooks Pro 2010 on Mac?

    QuickBooks Pro 2010 for Mac is not supported in Lion. QB Pro 2011 will work, but I just got an email today that 2011 will not be updated to work in Mountain Lion. QB Pro 2012 will be updated for ML.
    Be aware that the Mac version of QuickBooks is shamefully lacking in features compared to the Windows version. I do use the Mac version, but it has more features than I need for a small business, so it doesn't affect me. No one knows why Intuit seems to hate Mac users, but they show it every day.
    If QB Pro 2012 for Mac can be downloaded as a demo, I would strongly suggest testing with it before making a final decision. You will be able to import the Windows data, but possibly not all of it, depending on the Windows version features you use.
    Boot Camp allows you to install Windows on its own, bootable partition. When you boot to it, you are of course running Windows in every sense of the word. Just on Mac hardware rather than typical PC gear. Your Windows version of QB will work there without issue. The problem is having to boot back and forth between Windows and OS X, depending on what software it is you need to use at the time.
