Remote channel selection on a 19LV505

I have my 19 inch LCD/DVD combo connected to an HD antenna. I have gone thru the list of channels and add/delete d the one I receive and the ones I don't. All of the add's were HD signals with station numbers like 12.001 and 15.001.... when I use the remote to key in a channel, I press 12 and I get 12, not the digital 12.001....and I need to Channel up to get the digital channel.... I know logically pressing 12 and getting 12 is logical... BUT, I have a another Toshiba 40 inch LCD that I set up the same way, I think, and when I key in 12 on its remote, I get the 12.001, the HD station I want. Soooo, any ideas on the 19 inch set as to why it won't go to the HD station...? Thanks

Welcome to the discussions, Faye S!
+The channel selection is also set to automatic on the AX. Does it matter what channels are selected, so that I should manually specify the channels?+
Check your settings on both devices, as they should look like this:
On the AEBS, open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
Make sure that there is a check mark next to "Allow this network to be extended"
Update to save any changes
On the AirPort Express (AX), open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab
Wireless Mode = Extend a wireless network
Wireless Network Name = The name of your AEBS network should appear as a choice to join...select it
Check mark next to "Allow wireless clients"
Wireless Security = Exact same setting as the AEBS
Wireless Password = Same password as the AEBS
Confirm Password
Update to save settings
Note that there is no channel adjustment for the AX when it is setup to "extend". It will automatically be on the same channel as the AEBS.

How to make a good UI for channel selection using DAQmx

A lot of my Labview programming was with earlier verisons of labview (pre Labview 7), and there are a ton of new features that I'm trying to digest (currently using Labview 8.2).
My question is (in general terms), how are people programming their UI for selecting channels and such when using DAQmx hardware? What I have in mind is a compacDAQ system with a number of modules. The user would be able to pick and choose which channels to monitor. Using MAX as part of that process seems counter intuative, and somewhat static (yeah I know you can change it there, but it feels more like something you would use for something that really doesn't change much). I'd like all the UI to be within the VI.
Are programmers using the create task VIs for that or something else?
Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I wholeheartedly second the motion to keep MAX out of the picture as far as users are concerned.
Setting up UI's for channel selection is a breeze in DAQmx when you create channels on the block diagram. The control you create off the Channels input will populate itself with the inputs that it knows are capable of performing the desired task...
<<< My configuration knows that my Module 5 is capable of doing Analog Input.
So... Just create a panel that waits for the user to select the proper channel. I also run a quick check of the user's selection before creating / starting the task. For example, if they choose ai30 or higher, and I know that the system isn't wired for those inputs, I'll not allow that selection. Also check for using two of the same input, etc.

Can you automate keyboard channel selection?

Hi,
is it possible to automate channel selection on a midi heyboard controller,
in order the needed sound to be automatically selected while playing?
Thanks,

Set send level = 0 as the off button, and level = 127 as the on.

Keep switch channel selected for multiple steps in a scan list

Hi,
I have 3 switches (PXI-2575), one to apply a source to a given line, one to apply a sink, a one to apply a DMM. I have all three switches triggering off each other as well as a DMM (PXI-4070). I apply a source to any given line with the source switch and then cycle through other lines using the DMM switch. Problem is i want to keep the wear on the relays of the source switch to a minimum (for each cycle through the DMM lines I'm selecting same source pin multiple times!). Is there a command for scan lists or some way of setting up the switches so that this can be done?
I thought it might be possible to use the debounce command ';' on its own to signify that i don't want to change the channel selection but this does not appear to work, the DMM times out whilst waiting for a trigger on the second reading. Simplified example scan list that i currently have:
Break Mode: No Action
Source Switch: ch0->com;;;;~ch0->com & ch1->com...
DMM Switch: ch100->com;~ch100->com & ch101->com;~ch101->com & ch102->com;~ch102->com & ch103->com;~ch103->com & ch100->com...
I've also tried selecting the same channel in subsquent scan list entries which flags up error saying explicit connection already exists between the channels.
So is the only possibility just to needlessly wear out the relays?!

Hi leon007,
I can understand your desire to keep the wear on the relays of the Source switch to a minimum. I have a few questions, but we should be able to get the application working without needlessly wearing out the relays.
1. Can I assume you are using NI-SWITCH to program this application? If you are using the NI-DAQmx Switch API, please let me know.
2. When you state "I have all three switches triggering off each other as well as a DMM", can I assume (leaving out the Sink switch for now) the scan advanced output of the Source switch (TTL0) is sent to the trigger input of the DMM switch (TTL0), the scan advanced output of the DMM switch (TTL1) is sent to the trigger source of the DMM (TTL1), and the measurement complete destination of the DMM (TTL2) is sent to the trigger input of the Source switch (TTL2)?
3. If you are still having troubles after this post, I would like to know the following so I can assist in testing the issue: What versions of NI-DAQmx and NI-SWITCH do you have installed?
OK, that's it for my questions. Now for yours. Unfortunately, the debounce command ';' didn't work because it is simply a dummy entry - without creating a connection no scan advanced signal will be sent. I've noticed this is not documented well in our help file, and I apologize for that. However, attempting to create a connection where one already exists should be an error. Either the user is attempting to redundantly connect channels (which shouldn't happen if niSwitch Get Relay Position is used), or there is a driver issue.
To keep the relay wear to a minimum, I want to suggest a couple of ideas.
1. Use only one trigger line for the DMM's measurement complete and one trigger line for all the switches scan advanced outputs. To use this option, it cannot matter in your application which switch operates first, and which operates last. The switch that always makes a connection (the DMM switch) will send a scan advanced output trigger with a set scan delay (configured in niSwitch Configure Scan Trigger) that should accommodate for all the switches. This option may add delay in your application, but you will save relay life.
2. Use the DAQmx Switch API and the '&&' command between seperate switch connections. In the DAQmx Switch API, you use just one scan list for all switch modules. For example, we would perform the example scan list entries you provided with the following scan list:
/Source/ch0->com && /DMM Switch/ch100->com; ~/DMM Switch/ch100->com & /DMM Switch/ch101->com; ~/DMM Switch/ch101->com & /DMM Switch/ch102->com; ~/DMM Switch/ch102->com & /DMM Switch/ch103->com; ~/Source/ch0->com & /Source/ch1->com && ~/DMM Switch/ch103->com & /DMM Switch/ch100->com...
The above connects the Source switch CH0 to COM, waits for the relays to settle, connects the DMM switch CH100 to COM, sends the scan advanced output signal, and waits for the trigger input before executing the next scan list entry. This method will keep an order to the madness, as you will have the power to decide which switch operates first, and which operates last.
Let me know if I assumed anything incorrectly or if neither option works for you!

How to design channel select VI for Agilent34970A

Hello Guys,
I want to design a temperature data acquisition system by using 34970A,but now i have a problem that i don't know how to design a channels selecting vi?
My idea is to select any channel from multiple channels to scan,pls help me for explaining how to do,because my labviw knowledge and experience is so poor.

Thanks for the response. In order to incorporate the sampling information (sampling frequency) into my data ( 160 X 512 2-D Array), I use "Build Waveform.vi." However, for the input argument "Y," I can only use a 1-D array. I try with my 2-D array, but it gives me a connection error. So, my first thought was to stick the Build Waveform.vi into a for loop with a shift register. I use an indexing tunnel node when guiding my data array into the loop. I then connect the 1-D array to the build waveform.vi, and send the output to a "Build Array.vi" where the output goes to the shift register, and the other input comes from the first shift register. What prevents this from working i.e., creating a 2-D waveform array, is that the option to uncheck the "Concatenate Inputs" is not available when i right click on the Build Array.vi. I notice that I do have the option to uncheck it when i'm just using 2 waveforms without the shift register. Would you have any suggestions? I want keep it running as efficient as possible, so i figured that I might want to avoid doing the filtering 160*13 times, manually.
would there be any advantage to using the Digital IIR Filter.vi over the Butterworth Filter.vi ? The input for the former is a waveform while for the latter is a plain ol' array, but i notice that i can send a waveform into it and i don't get an error.

Channel Selection

I am trying to develop a channel selection VI for a Keithley 2700 DAQ system with a 7708 card installed. to specify the channels to be scanned the user send a string with the channels specified (ie 101,102 etc.) a comma is used to separate thechannel numbers. I want to use a series of check boxes that will create teh string. This is the easy part. Where I am having difficulty is with the commas. Each channel number is to be separated by a comma however the if a comma is placed after the last channel number in thr string, the 2700 chokes. I thought about passing the selected channels to an array and then to the array to spread sheet function, but then I get too many deliminators(101,102,103,) I'm using labView 6/6.1. Any Ideas?
Andrew

Hi Andrew,
You can build the string with embedded commas as shown in the attached diagram, for instance. Or, use your existing approach and remove the extra comma at the end, again as shown ion the diagram.

Cisco Valet M10 Wireless channel selection question

hello
Not sure if anyone knows or not, but I'm wondering how the option under the router wireless confirguration page, channel selection operates?
My Valet m10 (firmware: 2.0.03) offers an option to either manually set the wireless channel or have it set to 'Automatic' and I was wondering that when the option is set to 'Auto' how often does the router change channels.
Does it change only after being restarted?
Or does it change periodically all on it's own?
thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

How auto channel is supposed to work is that the router does a wireless survey and figures out which channel is best at the current time to lower signal interference between channels.
On some routers this feature doesn't work well and setting the channel manually is best.
Please remember to Kudo those that help you.

Gateway Channel Selection

Does anyone know accurately what is Ascending vs. Descending channel selection on a MGCP gateway? Cisco labels the gateway configuration with Bottom Up or Top Down. Yet I have conflicting documentation, one a Cisco document and another a 3rd party document. I'm leaning towards trusting the Cisco document.
Thanks
Fred

Ascending = Top Down
Descending = Bottom Up.
Top Down (a.k.a ascending) is for channels going from 1 to 23.
Bottom Up (a.k.a descending) is for channels going from 23 to 1.
I have seen that documentation on Cisco callmanager help page is wrong.

Remote cannot select channels, either directly entered or by selecting channel in the guide.

For a month, everything worked perfectly. Now all of a sudden entering a channel and hitting Enter, or OK does nothing. I only discovered this after I looked through the guide and found I show I wanted to watch. I hit OK, or Enter and the guide goes away and I am still on the channel the box was tuned to previously. The only way I can change channels is by using the channel button, going one channel at a time until I get to the channel I want to watch.
I am soooo frustrated!! I have reset the box and looked through every menu I could find to see if there was a setting somewhere that got switched.
Help me, please!!

Can you add a few more details?
What type if box do you have?
Do you have more than one? If so, does it happen on all boxes? Does a remote from another box have the same issue?

HT1600 I have Apple TV version 7.4.2 and we pressed on the remote the select button and the menu button at the same time to update our software. The box shows white light, we can get the screen to select netflix but nothing will move and the box will not

I have Apple TV version 7.4.2. We read in a blog that in order to reset our Apple TV we should press the menu button and the select big button at the same time which we did. Now when we attempt to turn on the apple tv box it with the remote we get a white light and sometimes we can get the menu screen but the remote will not let us move now will it allow us to turn the apple tv on or off. If we just leave it alone, the white light eventually goes away. I did unplug the apple tv and we removed the batteries and reinstalled them from the remote and that did not make any difference. Please advise.

If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.

CS4 and it's rearranged channel selection hotkeys...?

in all the prior versions of photoshop, the hotkeys to select the individual channels of an image were logically bound to the matching numbers...
ctrl-1 = view channel 1
ctrl-2 = view channel 2
ctrl-3 = view channel 3
ctrl-4 = view channel 4
ctrl-` = view rgb channels
does anyone know why those got remapped by adobe to this in cs4 :
ctrl-3 = view channel 1
ctrl-4 = view channel 2
ctrl-5 = view channel 3
ctrl-6 = view channel 4
ctrl-2 = view rgb channels
those make no sense at all and what makes it even more annoying is that when i went into the hotkey editor, i looked to see if ctrl-` or ctrl-1 were bound to any new commands and they don't appear to be, so it looks like adobe rebound those for no purpose at all.. :(
has anyone found any way to revert those hotkeys back to their traditional (and logical!) hotkeys?

Hrmmmm. He says that ctrl-1 got rebound to setting the zoom level to 100%, but that's not working on my machine so i don't see what he's talking about....
I curse them for doing that. The only time you should ever change a hotkey is if you allow the user to restore it back to it's original state with the hotkey editor. They shouldn't be changing hotkeys that aren't actually physically accessible in their hotkey editor.. :(

X-Fi 2/2.1 Channels Selection No Subwoo

Hi,Is there a way to enable the Subwoofer lineout 3 from the X-Fi soundcard, that is because sometime I would like to listen to 2. channels. But there is no base coming from my subwoofer once I selected 2/2. setup from the "Creative Entertainment Mode" console. Any help is most appreciated, thanks. Chris

fffcmad, in that case the software setup should have said "2.0" only and?not "2.0/2.". In "5.0/5." the lineout 3 for subwoofer is enabled, while in "2.0/2." the lineout 3 for subwoofer is totally disabled. My interpretation is "5.0/5." lineout 3 for subwoofer is enabled, therefore, when you say "2.0/2." lineout 3 for subwoofer should also be enabled. There is no harm in enabling the subwoofer for lineout 3 for "2.0/2." anyway the user can still go into the setup to disable the subwoofer if?they wish to, similar, with "5.0/5."?configuration. However, in?the current situation now the "2.0/2."?lineout 3 for subwoofer is totally being disabled and does not allow user to manually enable it. If I wishes to?add an amplifier, I won't have purchased the X-Fi pro.

Sub ChnComboBox1_EventChange(ByRef This) 'Created Event Handler
Call MsgBoxDisp("Selected channel: " & ChnComboBox1.Text)
End Sub
'advierte de cambio de variable En ANGLE2

Call MsgBoxDisp("Selected channel: " & ChnComboBox2.Text)
End Sub
'PLOTS

Hi Johnny,
As long as you have a reasonably new DIAdem version, you should be able to use the built-in subtraction function from the ANALYSIS panel instead of the channel calculator, like this:

AirPort Extreme Auto Channel Selection

I monitor my wifi environment and noticed that when I turn on my AirPort Extreme it chose a channel (11) that was also being used by multiple near by networks. These networks indicated the highest signal value of all the other nearby networks indicated, a value between 45 and 49. I am not experiencing any concerns and my AirPort seems to perform much better than the Verizon WiFi which I turned off. I left the AirPort on for a few hours and noticed that a couple other networks joined the same channel 11. I cycled my router and the new channel it chose was 6 and no other network nearby was on 6. The popular channels nearby seem to be 1, 6, 11. Would I be better off selecting say channel 8 or 9 or some channel other that the three popular ones and setting channel control to manual??? As I said I have no issues and my Apple TV seems to like the AirPort Extreme because I have not experienced the connection to the Apple store problems that I was having where I had to retry several times plus authorization and loading time has gone down. I shut down my AirPort and Verizon devices at night or when they will not be used for a few hours. By doing so at least the Airport picks a new channel. Thanks for any advice.

Would I be better off selecting say channel 8 or 9 or some channel other that the three popular ones and setting channel control to manual
I don't know who first said that wireless was half science and half voodoo, but they pretty much nailed it.
There really are only 3 wireless channels that do not overlap....1, 6 and 11.....so it is not hard to figure out why they are the most popular. If you choose channel 8 or 9 for example, then it will overlap both 6 and 11, so you actually increase your chances of picking up interference. Same for channel 3 or 4 for example, which will overlap both 1 and 6.
If you have the time to experiment, it won't hurt to try different channels to see if you can find the magic setting. But, since other routers around you are constantly changing as well, what might appear to be a good channel now, might not be a few hours from now.

Remote's Select button does nothing...

I can go up down left right and menu... but when I highlight either a movie or settings or netflix... nothing happens. The light on the apple tv box blinks once as I press it, but nohting happens.
