  • How to save data acquired from NI-DAQ in text format instead of TDMS using the DAQ-mx ANSI C code?

    Hi,
    I wanted to save data acquired from NI-DAQ (for example, NI 9234) in a file using the DAQ-mx ANSI C Code. The response I got was as follows:-
    One way to do it is with TDMS logging. DAQmx comes with functions designed to log to a TDMS file. This is a special file type that is used for collecting data in a logical format. It can be displayed in a TDMS viewer where data is separated into groups and channels. NI-DAQmx provides examples for how to log to TDMS. Look at the TDMS examples in the C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\NI-DAQ\Examples\DAQmx ANSI C\Analog In\Measure Voltage directory.
    However, now I want to know is there a way that using that same C code, can we save the data in a .txt file format (Text File) instead of a TDMS file? We actually want to access that file through MATLAB (that's why we want to save it in text format).
    Also on an other note, is there a way we can access & open TDMS files by MATLAB?
    Thanks,
    Sauvik Das Gupta

    There's a way you can access TDMS files in MATLAB:

    Hi,
    If your data is in an array, the easiest way is to use the ArrayToFile function.
    It automatically creates a file and puts your data in it according to the format you provide.
    If you have individual samples that you need to write once in a while, you can either collect them into an array and then use ArrayToFile or open a file with fopen and write them as they are acquired with fwrite.
    Hope this helps,

  • I would like to know how i can save an byte array to a mat file format (matlab file format '*.mat') within to use the matlab API

    So, I search the binary matlab file format('*.mat').

    Title:
    Moving Data Between MATLAB® and LabVIEW
    Problem: 
    How can I share data between LabVIEW and the MATLAB environment?
    Solution: 
    MATLAB users can move data between the
    MATLAB environment and LabVIEW, you have several options. Prior to
    LabVIEW 5.1, the only way to transfer data between these two
    environments was to use the Save and Load functions. Those are discussed herein.
    Beginning
    in LabVIEW 8.0, MathScipt was introduced. MathScript is an integrated
    part of LabVIEW that you can use to combine intuitive graphical
    dataflow programming with math-oriented textual programming. See the
    attached links below for more information on MathScript.
    Beginning
    in LabVIEW 5.1, the MATLAB script node was introduced into the LabVIEW
    programming environment. The MATLAB script node makes ActiveX calls to
    the MATLAB software from within LabVIEW. This requires that both MATLAB
    be installed on the same machine and that a valid license is obtained.
    More information on the MATLAB script node can be found in the attached
    KB's.
    For all versions of LabVIEW, this data transfer can be
    performed by saving the data in a file using the MATLAB software and
    reading it directly from LabVIEW, or vice versa. In the MATLAB
    environment, the command "save" allows you to save the data in
    binary format (*.mat) or ASCII format. You also have an option of
    saving it in ASCII format using a tab delimiter between data points and
    the command "load" allows you to read in the data.
    ASCII Format
    Complete the following steps to import or export data between LabVIEW and the MATLAB environment using an ASCII file format.
    From the MATLAB environment to LabVIEW
    To save a vector or a matrix X in tab-delimited ASCII format, enter the following in the command window or m-script file in the MATLAB environment:
    >>SAVE filename X -ascii -double -tabs
    This creates a file named filename containing data X in tab-delimited ASCII format.
    Import the file into LabVIEW using the Read From Spreadsheet File VI located on the Functions»File I/O palette.
    From LabVIEW to the MATLAB environment
    To export a matrix X from LabVIEW to the MATLAB environment, first save the data in ASCII format in LabVIEW using the Write To Spreadsheet File VI on the Functions » File I/O palette.
    Enter the following in the command window of the MATLAB environment, or in the m-script file:
    >> LOAD filename
    This reads the data into the MATLAB environment.
    Binary Format
    Complete the following steps to import or export data between LabVIEW and the MATLAB environment.
    From the MATLAB environment to LabVIEW
    As mentioned above, LabVIEW does not save multiple variables to one
    data with extra manipulation, and will not be discussed here.
    Therefore, the only way of sending the data from the MATLAB environment
    to LabVIEW without tampering with the MAT binary file structure is
    using the ASCII format. Also, please bear in mind that you need to have
    one file for one variable.
    From LabVIEW to the MATLAB environment
    Because
    the MATLAB software saves data in its own binary format, the "MAT"
    file, binary LabVIEW data must be converted to this format prior to
    transferring the data. The attached examples can be used to save
    LabVIEW data in the MATLAB software format. The convenience of the .MAT
    file format is that more than one variable can be saved in the same
    file. The example shows saving seven variables to .MAT format; the
    example can be modified for any number of variables.
    Once this data is saved from LabVIEW, it can be read into the MATLAB environment, using the following command:
    >>LOAD filename
    The Who
    command can then be used to display all the seven variable names, and
    you can display the content of them by entering the variable names at
    the command prompt as usual.

  • How do I stop Firefox from opening a new tab when I click a link or navigation button (such as "home") instead of redirecting using the currently open tab?

    Any time I click on a link within a page, such as the "home" link in Facebook, or the various links on the Mozilla page that I needed to follow to get to this screen, Firefox opens a new tab instead of redirecting using the tab I'm on. Also, Firefox doesn't go to the new tab, it just opens it. So if I want to actually go to the page I've just clicked on, I have to then also find and click on the new tab that just opened.

    Hello,
    In safe mode link still open in new tabs?
    *[http://mzl.la/MwuO4X Firefox in safe mode]
    Go to '''about:config''' and search for:
    *'''browser.tabs.loadInBackground''' change its value to '''false'''.
    If in safe mode the links still open in new tabs try go to '''about:config''' and search for:
    *'''browser.link.open_newwindow''' change its value to '''3'''.

  • Updating date in text format to date field

    I have 2 Strings which represent the date and time respectively. I need to load these into a date field. Every way I have tried has failed. Can anyone tell me how to get these Strings into the date field?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Assuming these strings are in definite format concatenate them and use function to_date
    For example if your date is 01-JAN-2000 and time 22:33-34
    then use to_date('01-JAN-2000' &#0124; &#0124; '22:33-34', 'DD-MON-YYYYHH24:MI:SS')
    More about date patterns - RTFM ;)

  • Date and time formats in DW CS3 using Bindings Panel

    Hi!
    I've seen a couple of questions on the web concerning this

    I'm using an Access database with a date field that I want to
    format on my ASP page using the Short Date format from the Bindings

    What specifically does it just won't work mean? What steps
    are you taking and what is the end result of your steps? If you get
    code inserted into the page, how does that compare to what the
    other versions are outputing?
    Well, nothing happens at all. When I select the dynamic text
    that gets its value from a Access database, the datacolumn in the
    database is in a dateformat. The default dateformat is displayed
    like this on the page;
    8/6/2008 5:45:18 PM, I just want the date to display in a
    Short Format, like this 8/6/2008.
    When I select the dynamic text in DW CS3 and try to select
    the Short Format option ion the dropdown menu in the bindingspanel
    nothing happens. When I do the same thing in the CS4 Beta this
    funktion is inserted in the head of the document:
    function DoDateTime(str, nNamedFormat, nLCID)
    dim strRet
    dim nOldLCID
    strRet = str
    If (nLCID > -1) Then
    oldLCID = Session.LCID
    End If
    On Error Resume Next
    If (nLCID > -1) Then
    Session.LCID = nLCID
    End If
    If ((nLCID < 0) Or (Session.LCID = nLCID)) Then
    strRet = FormatDateTime(str, nNamedFormat)
    End If
    If (nLCID > -1) Then
    Session.LCID = oldLCID
    End If
    DoDateTime = strRet
    End Function
    And at the dynamic text the code changes to this <%=
    DoDateTime((rsTestrecset.Fields.Item("date").Value), 2, -1) %>
    Everything is working like charm!
    But in the CS3 version noting is inserted on the page. It's
    not possible to edit the formats either, in the bindings panel. If
    you try to do that you get a dialogbox that says Something like
    "The formatttype Dat/time could not be found" (My application is in
    swedish, so it may not exactly be the correct text.)

  • Data Recover From Formatted Drive? What is the best program to use to get back Logic Projects and any other file type?

    I was in the process of reorganising my hard drives so I could RAID them however I managed to corrupt one drive and had to format it which meant I lost all my Logic Files and some other files. I managed to save a lot of files (mainly video files) before I had to format the drive but I need a Data Recovery service that will not alter anything on the hard drive and will put all the formatted files (regardless of the type) back for me so I can get the rest of the ones I need.
    Thanks in advance.

    What about folders and such?
    No. FS doesn't reconstruct folders. However, Data Rescue does, depending on how you use it. About the only thing in Data Rescue a Quick Scan ever seems to show you are files that are already live.
    So that leaves you with a Deep Scan, or a Deleted Files scan. The first pass of a Deep Scan will attempt to retrieve folders and files, along with their original names. The second pass only looks for file patterns. Like recognizing a Photoshop .psd file. It will recover it, but give it a nonsense name. A Deleted Files scan only results in nonsense names of recognized file types; no folders.
    What were you using File Salvage on? A hard drive?
    Yes, though you can use it on a flash drive, or any other mounted drive.
    At the moment it is estimating 289 hours remaining on a 1TB drive. Can it not go faster?
    No, both of the software mentioned are slower than molasses in January. When you delete anything in Windows, its file table entry simply tagged as deleted. So to unerase them, the tag is removed. That's why it works to quickly and easily (assuming you haven't already overwritten the data to be recovered).
    In OS X though, the whole idea of the underlying UNIX structure is all about security. It's not supposed to be easy to retrieve deleted items. When you delete items, their file table entries are erased. So the only way to find deleted items is to scour the entire drive for BOF (Beginning Of File) markers that don't have a matching starting block to anything that is in the file table.
    Another question, half the drive was empty. Will it fly over that empty space or will it sieve through it incase there was some files stored on it?
    If you use the Expert mode is FS, you can choose to do that:
