Shortcuts for change in read/write (control/indicator)

Hello,
I try to find a shortcut for change to read/write a local variable ?
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for you quick answer, I'll suggest this idea in the LabVIEW-IdeaExchange.
An other idea, do you know if we can add a property to the shorcut menu by modifying a configuration file... ?
Thanks,
Sylvain

Incorrect data type when writing to FPGA Read/Write Control

I have run in to a problem this morning that is causing me substantial headache. I am programming a CompactRIO chassis running in FPGA mode (not using the scan engine) with LabVIEW 2012. I am using the FPGA Read/Write Control function to pass data from the RT Host to the FPGA Target. The data the RT host is sending comes from a Windows host machine (acting as the UI) and is received by the RT Host through a network published variable.
The network published shared variable (shared between the RT and Windows system) is a Type Def cluster containing several elements, one of which is a Type Def cluster of fixed point numerics. The RT system reads this shared variable and breaks out the individual elements to pass along to various controls on the FPGA code's front panel. The FPGA's front panel contains a type def cluster (the same type def cluster, actually) of fixed point numerics.
The problem comes in the RT code. After I read the shared variable I unbundle the cluster by name, exposing the sub-cluster of fixed point numerics. I then drop an FPGA Read/Write Control on the RT block diagram and wire up the FPGA reference. I left click on the FPGA Read/Write Control and select the cluster of fixed point numerics. I wire these together and get a coercion dot. Being a coercion dot hater, I hover over it the dot and see that the wire data type is correct (type def cluster of fixed point numerics), but the terminal data type is listed as a cluster containing a Boolean, code integer and source string, also known as an error cluster. I delete the wire and check the terminal data type on the Read/Write Control, which is now correctly listed as a type def cluster of fixed point numerics. Rewiring it causes the terminal to revert back to the error cluster. I delete the wire again and right click on the terminal to add a control. Sure enough, a type def cluster of fixed point numerics appears. Right clicking and adding an indicator to the unbundle attached to the network shared variable produces the proper result. So, until they are attached to each other, everything works fine. When I wire these two nodes together, one spontaneously changes to a error cluster.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

My apologies I never got back to responding on this. I regret that now because I got it to work but never posted how. I ran in to the exact same problem today and returned to this post to read the fix. It wasn't there, so I had to go through it all over again.
The manifestation of the problem this time was that I was now reading from the Read/Write FPGA front panel control and writing to a network published shared variable. Both of these (the published shared variable and the front panel control) were based on a strict type defined cluster, just like in the original post. In this instance, it was a completely different cluster in a completely different project, so it was not a one-off thing.
In addition to getting the coercion dot (one instance becoming an error cluster, recall), LabVIEW would completely explode this time around. If I saved the VI after changing type definition (I was adding to the cluster) I would get the following error:
Compile error. Report this problem to N.I. Tech Support. Copy cvt,csrc=0xFF
LabVIEW would then crash hard and shutdown without completing the save. FYI, I'm running LabVIEW 12.0f3 32-bit.
If I would then reopen the RT code, the same crash would occur immediately, ad nauseam. The only way to get the RT code to open was to change the type defined cluster back to the way it was (prior to adding the new element).
I didn't realize it last time around (what originally prompted this post), but I believe I was adding to a type def cluster when this occurred the first time.
So, how did I fix it this time around? By this point I tried many, many different things, so it is possible that something else fixed it. However, I believe that all I had to do was to build the FPGA code that the RT code was referencing. I didn't even have to deploy it or run it... I just had to build it. My guess is that the problem was the FPGA Reference vi (needed to communicate with the FPGA) is configured (in my case) to reference a bit file. When the development FPGA Main.vi ceases to match the bit file, I think that bad things happen. LabVIEW seems to get confused because the FPGA Main.vi development code is up and shows the new changes (and hence has the updated type def), but when you ask the RT code to do something substantial (Open, Save, etc), it refers to the old bit file that has not yet been updated. That is probably why the error getting thrown was a compile error.
I'm going to have to do an additional round of changes, so I will test this theory. Hopefully I will remember to update this post with either a confirmation or a retraction.

Imaqio (fpga) PCIe 8255R read/write control ISO input

Hi. I have an external trigger connected to ISO INPUT 5 on my PCIe 8255R which has an fpga RIO (see manual). I want to read the value of ISO INPUT 5 using Read/Write control vi on Labview but this vi doesn't show that input (it shows iso inputs from 6 to 11). I'm using the default IMAQIO bitfile that comes in the installation directory to open the FPGA. What should I do?. Thanks in advance.

Hi Akiel,
Thanks for your question, I'm guessing the reasoning behind this is that you have a large number of indicators?
Whilst there isn't an in-built way of dynamically referencing which indicator on the FPGA to read from, there is a custom FPGA interface tool which may be of some use to you:
https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-17185
If you read through this, let me know if this helps or if you need any help understanding what this is doing.

Is it possible to change the read/write permissions on a time machine back-up of iTunes? I need to restore it, but old version is locked....

Is it possible to change the read/write permissions on a time machine back-up of iTunes? I'm needing to restore it as my phone deleted half our playlists during sync & am not seeing a way to unlock the permissions. I have the current version unlocked, but can't seem to get the backed-up version. When I click on restore I get a pop-up that says iTunes can't be deleted as it is part of the OS. I'm not even trying to delete, just restore the old version. Any suggestions?

Hmmm, ok I'll give it a shot. I've always had the iTunes sync w/ my phone set up to only load selected playlists to the phone b/c there's a lot more in iTunes than I have room or desire for on my phone. A few months back I started having trouble w/ trying to sync everything & subsequently adding more to the phone than it could hold. The quickest thing at the time was to unclick the sync music option in iTunes so I could still backup the phone to the computer & not have a problem.
When I asked about it during one-to-one session shortly after, they advised me to delete the music off my phone & then re-sync it to the computer, run a backup of the phone & redownload the music to the phone. When I tried this it ended up deleting all my playlists (but not my husband's) from iTunes. Irritating, but I've been rebuilding the playlists since. I had also unclicked sync music again & an Apple person told me the most likely best fix was to delete & reload iTunes completely.
A few days ago I realized I hadn't backed up the phone to the computer in over a month so after deleting & reinstalling iTunes, & w/o changing anything (sync music was STILL unchecked) I ran a backup & my phone went from having 4 GB free space to being 2 GB over capacity due to iTunes trying to download the entire music library to the phone. I made a one-to-one appt again & it was suggested AGAIN that I delete all the music off my phone & then resync it to the computer & redownload the music. We did this (though a few random songs that had previously been purchased somehow remained on the phone), I got home, connected the phone & instead of the music that shows as 'on my device' disappearing from iTunes it just sat there, so, as the guy had told me I MIGHT have to do, I threw all those songs showing in iTunes as being on my phone, in the trash so that it was completely clear.
At this point I checked sync music, made sure the options were 'selected playlists only', checked the ones from my own list that I wanted (I usually have one playlist of comedians from my husband's folder that I also have on the phone, but didn't check it at this point). It uploaded all my stuff just fine, but for whatever reason when it saw that I wasn't uploading that comedy playlist any longer, it not only didn't upload it but proceeded to delete my husband's entire folder of playlists from iTunes. -_- I got on the phone w/ an Apple support person right away but he wasn't able to tell me anything .. basically said we'll have to rebuild everything. I asked about the possibility of using time machine, he said he's not qualified to answer that, so that's when I started looking around online & found, among others, the link I referenced a couple replies ago.
I hope this all makes sense. It's been a long-term issue so I'm trying to go from memory as I figured to begin w/ that I had just made a mistake somewhere, so didn't try to document anything. Now w/ it having happened a 2nd time, I'm not sure if it was 'user error' or something else.......

FPGA Read/Write Control Issues

Hello all! Rather new to using FPGA, but I have an interesting issue that's popping up.
Currently pulling in RAW voltage data from a set of sensors (Pressure Transducers, Load Cells, etc) through a cRIO DAQ. Have the FPGA file setup to pull in that data already and have the main VI and all the sub-VIs working just fine.
What I'm trying to do is save the raw voltage data (TDMS files) on the lower level and the convert and display on the upper level so that I don't have to convert and save (speed up saving data). So that leaves 3 distinct levels/sections:
On FPGA that pulls in the raw data
On FPGA that saves the raw data
Main VI that does all the controls/conversions/displays etc.
Number two is where I'm having an issue. I want to save all the data in parallel so I'm creating a save FPGA for each I/O device (8 Relays to command solenoid valves, 3 Pressure Transducers, 1 Load Cell, 4 Thermocouples). To do this I want to create a separate VI for each device (not sure if that's a smart thing to do).
The issue I'm having is when I use the FPGA Read/Write control to read in from the Target and save to the TDMS. When I only use a single FPGA target reference the lines are broken, but as soon as I switch to two targets, it now works.
Any reason why it might be doing this? Any ideas/suggestions at all on how to go about setting this up in general?
Thanks!

HySoR,
You might check the documentation for "data" terminal of "TDMS Write" (http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361H-01/glang/tdms_file_write/). One DBL element is not accepted, but 1D DBL array is accepted.
data is the data to write to the.tdmsfile. This input accepts the following data types:
Analog waveform or a 1D array of analog waveforms
Digital waveform
Digital table
Dynamic data
1D or 2D array of:
Signed or unsigned integers
Floating-point numbers
Timestamps
Booleans
Alphanumeric strings that do not contain null characters

Well, running a Windows disk utility on a Mac drive ought to muck things up pretty well. I hope you have backups. If not I suggest you try to backup your files. Then do the following:
Extended Hard Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (only required for Intel Macs) then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Upon formatting completing quit DU to return to the installer. Install OS X. Afterwards you can restore your personal data files and reinstall your third-party software.
In the future never attempt to use any Windows disk utilities to fix or diagnose a Mac formatted drive.

FPGA Up Cast Funktion deletes Values form Read/Write Controll

Hello Everybody,
I Have an other Problem with my RT-FPGA cRIO...
I have now managed to read the module IDs to convert this combination in a certain casenumber and this one then selects the FPGA File. Now is that I have inbounded various FPGA Bitfiles. If I composed them by the the "Up Cast function" to a universal reference then there will disappear some elements by using the Read / Write Control .
I have a picture attached that this Clarifies!
The first two R / W Controller have been up before the cast and the third upcast diverted after.
I hope you can help me!
thank you in advance before

Even now I've noticed the function Invoce methode: Read TEDS is also no longer supported.
Why?!

Shortcut for changing "from" field in Lion Mail?

I manage a number of email accounts from Mail, and frequently need to send messages from one account, and then another account, and then another account ... In Snow Leopard, I enjoyed creating shortcuts to change the "from" field of an outgoing message. For example, in the keyboard system preferences pane, I assigned the command "My Name <[email protected]>" the shortcut of "SHIFT+CMD+X". That way, while writing an email, if I noticed that it was about to send from the wrong account, I'd just hit the keystroke instead of grabbing my mouse. Mail apparently knew what I was doing, because on the drop-down tab for "From", each of my mail accounts also showed the custom assigned shortcut.
This ability seems blocked in Lion. Whenever I try to re-create these shortcuts in the preferences / application-shortcuts pane, they won't work! What's worse, whenever I quite and re-open System Preferences, I find that my shortcuts have been re-assigned an extra open-bracket, such as: ">My Name <[email protected]>".
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Is it possible to re-create these shortcuts in Lion Mail?

So Entourage can go to the previous message? How do you do that?
I can't stand that Mail always goes to the next newest message after deleting.
Every other email program I've ever seen (including Entourage - see below) can do this. Why can't Apple? I don't want to touch the mouse most of the time because it really slows down work to move ones hands back and forth. I did a quick web search and found these shortcuts for all the major programs. If you know of any other program besides Apple Mail that doesn't have this, let me know.
Until then, if Outlook, Outlook Express, Entourage, Sparrow, Postbox, and Thunderbird have had this, what's Apple's problem adding it?

What is the keyboard shortcut for changing dictation language in Yosemite?

I can't find the keyboard shortcuts to change the dictation language in Mac OS X?
I would really appreciate if someone help me with this problem. I work with two languages and I really can't find any way to do that.
Thanks for your help guys

Until the developer can release dictationswitcher compatible with Yosemite, here is an AppleScript that will toggle between two languages. After it switches, it will speak which language has been set. Currently, the spoken text is in English (United States). This script will work on Yosemite and Mavericks. Tested.
What you need to do to get this to work.
Add your alternative language to the Dictation Language pop-up.Set your languages in the AppleScript property strings exactly as they appear in the Dictation Language Menu.
Copy/Paste the following AppleScript into your Script Editor (/Applications/Utilities).
Click the hammer (compile) button
Save once as File format text (dictation.applescript) - don't hide the extension, or check any of the checkboxes.
Option+Save As… File format Application to your Desktop. Hide the extension, and check no other checkboxes.
The first time that you run this application, you will receive a dialog box just like the one below (I changed the name back to dictation):
Click Open System Preferences. Click on the gold lock button in the lower left corner. The Accessibility category will be selected, but the dictation application in the list of apps will be unchecked. Check it, and then click the gold lock again. Quit out of the dictation application on your Desktop, and run it again. If you happen to get another dialog indicating that it still does not have permission, revisit the System Preferences > Security & Privacy panel, and under the Privacy tab > Accessibility, uncheck the dictation application, and then recheck it again. Quit System Preferences. This happened to me, and following this second action allowed it to work properly.
Future releases of OS X may impact this application if Apple changes the order of the UI elements.
I modified this AppleScript from an Apple StackExchange post by qegal in 2012.
Copy/Paste the following AppleScript into your Yosemite Script Editor per the above instructions.
property defaultLang : "English (United States)"
property altLang : "German (Germany)"
-- property altLang : "French (France)"
tell application "System Events" to set p to (path to frontmost application) as string

Keyboard shortcut for change bars

I have the pleasure (?!) of updating the technical content of a whole series of documents written originally by a bunch of people, and sending the results to yet another bunch of people for review. To help the reviewers identify where I've made changes, I use change bars. Great so far...
However, while updating the original work I'm finding that I have to repair spelling, grammar and formatting errors too. The resulting change bars would be a real mess if I didn't turn them off for each of the minor repair jobs, so that they identified only the changes to technical content.
According to the FM Help and other information sources, the ESC c h or the Ctrl+Shift+H keyboard shortcut sequences toggle change bars on and off, but in reality this doesn't happen. Does anyone know of a quick way to toggle change bars?

> According to the FM Help and other information sources,
> the ESC c h or the Ctrl+Shift+H keyboard shortcut sequences
> toggle change bars on and off, but in reality this doesn't happen.
They work for me. Perhaps they don't work the way you expect.
If you want to turn off change bars, so that they're no longer
applied when you make a change, you use "Esc o b" and turn
the function off in the dialog that opens. Turn them on again
in the same way.
If you already have a change bar applied, and you want to
delete it, then you can use Ctrl+Shift+H. The problem is that
the shortcut toggles the change bars, and change bars is a
character property. The easiest way to do it is:
1. Select a range of characters bigger than where the
change actually occurs. If possible, it's often easiest
to select the entire paragraph.
2. Press Ctrl+Shift+H *twice*. The first time, change
bars are applied to all characters. The second time, the
change bars are removed.
Or, use the Find function to search for change bars,
and then press Ctrl+Shift+H *once*. Since the search
selects the exact characters where change bars are
applied, you only need one press to remove them.

Changes to Read/Write permissions not working

I have had issues with authorizing and licensing third party music production plugin applications. I'm running Yosemite 10.10.2 on an iMac. When authorizing a specific program an error message reading - "Registration File Error (permission denied, error #8313)" I was told to change the disk permissions to Read and Write for everyone. I unlocked the window and changed the permissions accordingly. I ran the authorization again and the same error shows up, despite having been changed. Will the Disk Utility "Repair permissions" tab correct this problem? I have retried this operation more than several times and no dice. Very frustrating problem and is delaying several production projects.

Hi Linc - I went to the preferences page for the Mac hard disc and changed the "everyone" tab to Read & Write in the Sharing and Permissions window. In each case where I changed the access, I unlocked and then locked the window once it was changed. Even restarted the computer. Each time that I did this and then tried authorize the software the same error message appeared. It just seems like the Read & Write function isn't taking effect. I've been working with the software company and they have replicated the problem, but were able to change their preferences tab so that the authorization went through. Is there a way around this problem? I've been going back and forth with the software company trying to solve the problem for several weeks now.

Shortcuts for filing plus reading the next message

Are there any shortcuts or preferences that allow the following in Mail:
1) From the toolbar in a message, the ability to file the message away in a specific folder ("mailbox")
2) Once a message has been filed/deleted, to read the next one in line in the Inbox.
I love Mail, but these two facilities from Outlook/Entourage are very handy...

Greetings,
There are no such preferences or keyboard shortcuts for what you're seeking. You can easily move a message to another folder by Control-clicking on it and using the Move To option from the contextual menu that appears. After it's moved, the next message will be selected and displayed if you have the two-pane message viewer enabled; otherwise it will just select the next message and you will need to double-click it to display it in it's own window.
