Record Reaction Time... Questoin

Hello everyone! I have a quick question... What are the main advantages of a HD-SD or HD-HDD camcorder over a HD Mini DV?
I am hoping but cannot find anything on it that the SD or HDD are quicker to start recording than the Mini DV version? is this correct? so in other words which is quicker to start recording once the record button is pressed? I need the fastest reaction time.

You can just ignore button reads until the time is right.
Here's a simple rewrite, see if it makes sense.
Notes:
Make sure that all controls have labels. You can hide the label on the front panel, but don't make it an empty string. It makes assigning event, etc. nearly impossible. All controls need a label for code readability.
Don't maximize the diagram to the screene. That's very annoying.
Don't trap event structures insude case structures.
Don't use right-to-left wiring (e.g. for the status)
Mind your representations. Look at all your red coercion dots. The numbers should be Integers of the same type.
Watch out for mechanical actions. Your start button is "switch until released" (like a car horn!), making detecting a press hit and miss, epsecially in the presence of long waits.

  • Recording user reaction time in Flash

    I am running several visual cognition experiments using
    Flash. See there here:
    http://vacognition.wjh.harvard.edu
    Experiments are by definition interactive, in that I am
    recording data from the people who participate. Currently, I just
    record accuracy (did they answer a question correctly or not). Many
    experiments require getting reaction time -- that is, how long did
    it take them to respond. How accurate can I expect my measurements
    to be? In the lab, they would be accurate to about 2-5
    milliseconds. I know it won't be that good with Flash over the
    Internet, but does anybody have any idea *how* accurate?
    Oh, and please participate in the experiments that are
    currently running. I need many, many people to participate,
    especially for
    this
    experiment

    to be a bit more precise i would use the Date object. the
    following is from flash help:
    Date.getTime();
    "Returns the number of milliseconds since midnight January 1,
    1970, universal time, for the specified Date object. Use this
    method to represent a specific instant in time when comparing two
    or more Date objects."
    the number of milliseconds!!! so it is pretty accurate,
    isn't it? :)
    as you start an exercise you create a Date. as the user
    finishes with the answer you create another Date. after it you can
    substract the two Dates then you get the passed time in
    milliseconds!
    (at start)
    startTime = new Date();
    (when the user finishes)
    endTime = new Date();
    duration = endTime.getTime()-startTime.getTime() //and this
    is in milliseconds
    hope it's clear and accurate enough... ;)

  • Time Constraints on ESS - Record Working Time and Leave Request

    Hi All,
    I have configured Time Constraints and their reaction in V_T554Y.
    When I record the appropriate combination of Attendances and Absences in back-end, I can see the reactions as specified... However, when I try to do the same in ESS - Recording Working Time and Leave Request, I do not see that Time Constraints taking effect on the front end.
    Here is what I have done:
    I have two attendance - P001 and P002. P001 is configured to be recorded on Leave Request where as P002 is configured to be recorded via Record Working Time (CATS) link.
    I record the attendance P001 in Leave Request and also post that into infotypes. After this, I try to record P002 in the Record Working Time Screen and I still get errors (Errors are from: HRTIM00REC E/207 and LR E/335)
    If I try to replicate the same in the back-end in IT20002, then there is no issues.
    Can anyone help and let me know how we can implement the same Time constraints reactions on the front-end and the back-end.
    Thanks a bunch
    - Harshal

    Note that Time constraints are not valid for Leave request and Working time ie in ESS
    it only comes via PA30
    in CATS too, we dont follow much HR related collisions checks these are taken into consideration during CAT6
    and in leave request via Rptarqpost
    so its not gonna work, Its intended and correct! go for a user exit cats0003 or check cac1 profile customisation

  • Custom Search help in Record Working Time

    Hi,
    We have a requirement to add a custom field on RECORD Working Time ( ESS). This field has been added and custom search help is assigned to the data element of the field. The values in the F4 help should vary based on employees department.
    The related code for this requirement is written in the serach help exit. The F4 help is working as expected from backend ( ECC) but not in Portal (ESS).
    I have added the custom field in TCATS_SHLP_ITS. After maintaining this table all the values in F4 help are displaying , whereas it should only display the values under employees department in Record Working time.
    I understand the class cl_xss_cat_value_help_general is responsible for the search help in ESS is there any user exit or enhancement available for this class in order to control the serach values on ESS.
    Thanks in advance.
    regards,
    Pradeep

    note that search help of CAT2 and record working time are different!
    these are teh steps
    please modify the following in the table TCATS_SHLP_ITS as follows:
              1. Execute the T-Code SM31
              2. Enter the table name TCATS_SHLP_ITS.
    or check the class
    CL_XSS_CAT_VALUE_HELP_GENERAL
    or check
    CL_XSS_CAT_VALUE_HELP*
    take an example from Sap note 914125

  • Record Working Time task merging multiple employees into a single task

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm going to check our configuration again to see if this is standard behaviour, config, or a problem with EHP 3's version of record working time.
    So if employee A submits to manager A 1 task is created.  Then when employee B submits to manager A we were expecting 2 tasks.  However, we've been noticing manager A is getting 1 task with several line times. 
    We are ok with it merging tasks for employee A over multiple weeks.  That is ideal actually.
    The problem is that employee B's task should be separate.
    Is there a quick fix?
    Thanks,
    Doug Robbins

    I did try 31000007 and noticed the same behavior.  Are you saying I should use an older version of the task to get back to grouped by employee number and not merging everything? 
    Well this causing us issues for a few reasons. The main one we developed a work around because we had to make sure emails were not being sent to 1 person for all the employees with their data.  That would cause obvious security concerns. 
    But when forward tasks out managers want to be able to forward a specific employee's requests and not all of them.  If some customers want this it should be a configurable option.  To allow companies that want 1 single task or companies that want 1 task/employee/week.
    This is inconsistent with the other portal applications.  It would be nice if Germany picked 1 way of doing things or provided more configuration options.  I'm hoping that OSS gives us something because merging everything into a single task for all employees is not the behaviour we want or expected.
    I always appreciate your input because you have been very helpful as I learn about portal.
    Thanks,
    Doug R
    Thanks you

  • How to record a time-limited video with Adobe AIR for iOS

    I am trying to record a time-limited video with Adobe AIR for iOS.
    For example, I want to implement the following function. Start a one-minute timer before launching CameraUI to record video. When the timeout event happens after one minute, stop recording video, close the CameraUI view and obtain the video data so far.
      I have several questions related to that.
      1. How to stop recording video from outside the CameraUI view(in this case, from the timeout event handler) and then close the CemeraUI view? As far as I know, to close the CameraUI view, the only way is to press the [Use Video] button or the [Cancel] button from inside the CameraUI view. Is it possible to close it from outside?
      2. Even if the first problem mentioned above is solved, then how can I get the video data so far(in this case, the video data before the timeout). I know that normally we can get a MediaPromise object from MediaEvent parameter of the  complete handler, and read the video data from the MediaPromise object. But obviously in this case, we can not access the MediaPromise object just because the complete handler itself will not be executed since the [Use Video] button is not pressed.
      3. Is it possible to add a stopwatch to show possible remaining recording time when CameraUI view is open? It seems that the CameraUI automatically uses the full screen of iOS device(in my case, iPad) and there is no extra space to show the stopwatch.
      Are there any solutions or workarounds about the three problem above? I really appreciate it if anyone has any idea about this. Thanks in advance.

    You'd have more control by using the Camera object, showing the camera on a video object inside a Sprite, and capturing that. Then you could put whatever graphics alongside it on the stage.. I've used FlashyWrappers in a test to capture the video to the library.  It took some work, but the test worked well...

  • How to restrict the dropdown values in Att/abs type in Record Working Time

    Hello experts,
    We are implementing ESS business package.  In the Record Working time, within the Weekly View and Daily View tabs, there is a column Att/abs.type which has several drop down values - like:  floating value, Funeral Leave, Military Reserve, Regular Attendance, etc.   Our requirement is to restrict the dropdown values  by means of showing only one of these values (say:  Regular Attendance) and others should not be shown.   How do we achieve this?
    Thanks
    Vicky R.

    Hi Siddarth,
    Thanks for the info.  By the way, this table info is not mentioned in the Business Package documentation.  Which documentation are you referring to?
    Thanks

  • Header information not displaying in ABAP Webdynpro record working time

    1. I am not seeing the header information, personnel number, name, cost center, on the ABAP Webdynpro record working time timesheet. When I run the timesheet profile in CAT2 the header contains the personnel number, name, cost center, but these do not display when the ABAP Webdynpro timesheet is run
    2. Is there a version of the ABAP webdynpro timesheet that prompts for the personnel number, date and profile prior to executing the timesheet?  I want to define an ESS link for managers to update timesheets of individual teammates.  The teammate do not necessarily have to be their direct reports

    Hi David,
    CATS Webdynpro application is a OIF fpm. Please check if you have performed the FPM IDR configuration properly.
    In standard, the ESS CATS does not prompt for the personnel number except in CE scenario. In MSS addon, you have an option to launch the ESS CATS application on-behalf of the employee. Please refer to the sap library documentation.
    Hope this helps,
    Regards,

  • Mapping with Scd operator set to type 2 reading source records two times

    Mapping with Scd operator set to type 2 reading source records two times.Records selected count being displayed at the end of execution is double the source record count.This possibly is affecting the performance of the mapping.
    Is this a bug in scd type 2 operagtor in OWB 11gR2.How to rectify this umwamted double loop through the source data selectiom?

    Hi Roelant,
    I think it is important to be aware that although Paris - 10gR2 - is not actually buggy (in this respect!), it is really quite idiosyncratic in exactly how it processes SCDs.
    I followed up on your and Mark's comments, and did an in depth analysis of this topic. It is at http://www.donnapkelly.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/documents/OWB_10gR2_SCD.pdf
    My conclusions are perhaps of interest to anyone considering doing SCD processing with Paris.
    I'll be doing a follow-up this weekend, and publishing a sort of 'how-to-do-it' guide.
    Cheers,

  • Enhance legend in Record Working Time IView

    Hi,
    I am working on SAP NetWeaver Portal 7.0(Service Pack 4). New NetWeaver functionality in Record Working Time section(of ESS>Working time ) allows employees to enter their working times for different attendance/absence types showing different colours in calendar for Rejected and Not Released statuses. Now the requirement is to include one more colour to show the approved times in the calendar. Ie, Currently legend has two colors with text,  like  (  <Red box> Rejected           <Light Red box>  Not Released), now i have to add   ' <Green box>  Approve '  beside   'Not Released' text,    and if manager approves the time sheet then those dates will be displayed in green color.
    If any body worked on the similar type of requirement or having knowledge....please let me know how to achieve this req.
    Thanks in advance.

    HI,
    You need to implement BADI for this ..
    BADI name : "PT_ABS_REQ"
    In the BADI "PT_ABS_REQ" interface "IF_EX_PT_ABS_REQ" you can find the method
    "SET_CALENDAR_COLOR" in that you can set the colure for the Absent type ......
    Adjust Colors of Calendar and Team Calendar
    Functionality
    You can use this method to change the colors in the team calendar.
    In the standard system, the different statuses for requests have different colors. You can use this method to differentiate the colors of requests depending on the following aspects:
    Status of requests (status)
    Action that an employee has executed: new request, delete, change (UIA operation)
    Subtype of absence (SUBTY)
    Full-day or partial-day absence (BEGMT, where BEGMT = 0 signifies a full-day absence)
    Application mode ( mode). You specify the application mode in the Select Employees for the Team Calendar IMG activity.
    Color Display of Status of Leave Requests(COLORS_ACTIVE). You specify this status in the Specify How Leave Is Displayed and Default Values IMG activity.
    Available Colors
    You have a choice of 16 colors. The 16 colors are hard coded, that is, you cannot change them or add other ones.
    The available colors are stored with their RGB value as constants of the CL_PT_REQ_CONST class. Use these constants if you want to change the colors.
    Notes
    If you change the colors in the team calendar, you should also adapt the legend accordingly. You can use the Adjust Legend for Calendar and Team Calendar method to do so.
    Hope this work!!!

    Dear Friends,
    I ran a COPA full load for (with Infosource 1_CO_PA_COSTING and) for a the same range of 0FISCPER (three periods)and the load brought different no of records each time. It brought 30,000 records the first time, 3 the second time and 1 the third time. All these loads were run with in 10 minutes. What possibly is the reason? Please share your thoughts?

    Hi,
    All the parameters are maintained in the SU01 but we are in strange situation here only for one test user id we are getting null pointer exception with the time sheet. We compared with the user id which is working there is no difference in the parameters
    maintained. Please tell me why this behavior between two user ids.
        These two are manager user ids. For employee user ids time sheet is working fine.

  • Reaction Time Test

    Hi everybody.
    I've been tearing my hair out trying to program a Reaction Time Test.  I have been trying to search for topics that were like my program, but these programs were based on lights and on-off functions while mine is based on random number generator.
    To explain a bit more in detail, I am creating a program that allows a test subject to choose 2 numbers to add or subtract (from 0-10).  Then the program will randomly generate numbers between 0 and 10 and display it to the subject and the subject will need to react when the displayed number equals the answer in their head. On the programs side, when the number randomly generated equals the true answer the loop will start a timer and when the subject presses the button, the timer stops and displays the time.
    Right now, I'm having a problem with the last sentence.  I can't make heads or tails of how to get a timer started or getting it to properly output. 
    Any ideas?

    You can just ignore button reads until the time is right.
    Here's a simple rewrite, see if it makes sense.
    Notes:
    Make sure that all controls have labels. You can hide the label on the front panel, but don't make it an empty string. It makes assigning event, etc. nearly impossible. All controls need a label for code readability.
    Don't maximize the diagram to the screene. That's very annoying.
    Don't trap event structures insude case structures.
    Don't use right-to-left wiring (e.g. for the status)
    Mind your representations. Look at all your red coercion dots. The numbers should be Integers of the same type.
    Watch out for mechanical actions. Your start button is "switch until released" (like a car horn!), making detecting a press hit and miss, epsecially in the presence of long waits.
