Simultaneous triggering on 4 channels with SignalExpress and NI-USB6210

It seems that the USB6210 doesn't support analog triggering, however we'd like to know if there is some way that SignalExpress can be made to trigger simultaneously on 4 separate channels when either one of them triggers. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Pat,
Thank you for posting on the NI Forums. You are correct in the fact that the USB-6210 does not directly support analog triggering, you could however apply a software trigger in Signal Express. This means that the data will still be acquired from the 6210, but the software will only display data once the trigger parameters are met. I have attached an image that shows how to include this trigger after your DAQmx Acquire step. Under the configuration tab you can specify your parameters. Give this a go and let me know if it works. National Instruments will be closed on Thursday and Friday for the holiday weekend. I can respond when we return on Monday if you have additional questions. Thanks!

  • Several DAQmx Channels with Start and Clear Task VI's

    Hi,
    I'm trying to read in several DAQmx channels in a while loop. When I just place the channels within the while loop and connect them directly to the read VI's, everything is fine. But I read in the help, that this will slow down my system, because it's opening and closing the task each cycle. So I used Start Task and Clear Task VI's to open and clear them before and after the loop. But now it's only reading one of my channels in, although I wired all of them in exactly the same manner. Anyone has an idea, what I did wrong?
    Thanks,

    You would have seen the error if you had wired up and error indicator.
    You cannot run multiple tasks of the same type (i.e. an analog input) at the same time. What you read about stopping and closing tasks is correct but it was the only way your program could work. What you don't realize is that you can have multiple channels with a single task. If you used a physical channel constant, it would be something like 'dev1/ai0:2' if you had consecutive channels or 'dev1/ai0, dev1/ai2' for non-consecutive. Global channels are done in a similar fashion. You would have 'FSR1, FSR2, Knee Angle', etc.

  • How can I read two channels with fieldpoint and labview

    I'm trying to read two or more channels with the TC 120, and I follow the examples of sopport page, but doesn't work.
    What can I do?

    For more information about reading or writing to or from multiple channels in Fieldpoint, please refer to:
    How Do I Read or Write to Multiple Channels on a Fieldpoint Module in LabVIEW?
    This should enable you to read multiple channels. The only other option available is to use one fp open.vi, multiple Create Tag.vi's and multiple FP Tag Read.vi's.

  • Bad Picture Quality On SD Channels With HDMI And Panasonic VIERA 720p LCD HDTV

    I just bought a new Panasonic VIERA 32" 16:9 8ms 720p LCD HDTV TC-L32X1 for my in-laws when they finally had Verizon FIOS brought into their neighborhood last month.
    Install was by the Verizon tech using the HDMI cable I also had shipped to them.
    The HD channels quality is excellent, but the SD quality is smeared -- almost looks like an impressionist painting.
    It is not the TV -- the TV menus are crystal clear, as are the HD channels.
    And, it is not just the broadcast HD -- the DVR box menus are also smeared when viewing as SD channel, as is the guide and the pop up channel info.
    We've tried all the settings on the TV -- Zoom, 4:3, etc.
    The other TV (an older CRT) actually has better SD quality than the Panasonic.
    My research indicates we're not the only ones on FIOS with this problem. Someone suggested using the component hookup rather than HDMI?
    Other say that IMG 1.7 is supposed to solve the problem, that the SD quality was fine before IMG 1.6.
    Any suggestions, solutions, or updates?
    The picture is virtually unwatchable.
    Thank you!

    Joe01880 - Being a new customer as of last October, I have never seen anything other than IMG 1.6.  My understanding from other posts is that before IMG 1.6, the SD PQ on an HD box was just fine.  I'm not sure what the complaints/gripes/begs were for IMG 1.6 but it seems to me that, if Verizon knows what changes were made, it should be straightforward to determine which changes caused a deterioration of the PQ.  I think it's been at least 6 months since the first complaints of poor PQ, so I don't really see how anyone can claim that Verizon is in danger of "rushing" an update to address this problem.  I also don't think that a forum topic, no matter how much it complains or gripes, will cause Verizon to rush.  I am much more worried that during a large portion of my 2 year contract that the issue won't be addressed at all, so I'm happy to add my voice to those complaining."

  • URL in sender SOAP channel with user and password

    Hi Expert,
    I have developed SOAP to proxy scenario.The serder WSDL is generated by using sender agreement. In the WSDL we are using default below URL.

    But the client requirement is that he want SAP user and password also in above url.
    Is this possible in sender SOAP channel?
    Any body can please help me for above issue?

  • Triggering frequency measuremen​t with 9402 and cDAQ

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to take a speed measurement off of a shaft using a hall effect sensor and a 9402 module in a 4 module cDAQ 9174 chassis. I've used the low frequency measurement example using DAQmx but if the shaft isn't spinning I get a timeout error.
    Two questions, is there a way to use the Express VI's to accomplish this and how do I create a trigger to start the measurement?
    -Ian

    Why not clear the timeout and report 0 RPM.  The timeout is 0 rmp but you dont want to wait forever and block program flow.

  • Is it possible to start a PCI4472 and a PCI-MIO-16E-1 simultaneously using an analog trigger (with pre-trigger)?

    I would like to start several PCI 4472 and a PCI-MIO-16E-1 simultaneously. All boards are connected via a RTSI cable.
    My program works fine if I use software trigger, or an analog trigger from a PCI4472 channel. However, the analog trigger works only when I set pre-trigger (or pre-scan) to 0.
    Is it possible to start a PCI4472 and a PCI-MIO-16E-1 simultaneously using an analog trigger (with pre-trigger)?
    Thanks.
    Ian Ren

    Hi, Bill
    I think it is possible to set more than 38 pre-trigger scans on a single 4472 card. I've done this before. You can verify this by running the Labview example "Acquire N - Multi-Analog Hardware Trig.vi" which comes with LabView.
    What I try to do but without success/luck so far is to start data acquisitions of several 4472 cards and a PCI-MIO-16E-1 card using an anlog trigger (with pre-trigger).
    Thanks for your help.

  • Problem with Roles and Triggers

    I'm having a strange problem with Roles and Triggers in Oracle. It's a little difficult to describe, so bear with me...
    I'm trying to create a trigger that inserts records into a table belonging to a different user/owner. Of course, the owner of this trigger needs rights to insert records into this other table. I find that if I add these rights directly to the owner of the trigger, everything works okay and the trigger compiles successfully.
    However, if I first create a Role and grant the "insert" rights to it, and then assign this role to the owner of the trigger, the trigger does not compile successfully.
    To illustrate this, here's an example script. I'm using Oracle 10g Release 2...
    -- Clean up...
    DROP TABLE TestUser.TrigTable;
    DROP TABLE TestUser2.TestTable;
    DROP ROLE TestRole;
    DROP TRIGGER TestUser.TestTrigger;
    DROP USER TestUser CASCADE;
    DROP USER TestUser2 CASCADE;
    -- Create Users...
    CREATE USER TestUser IDENTIFIED BY password DEFAULT TABLESPACE "USERS" TEMPORARY TABLESPACE "TEMP" QUOTA UNLIMITED ON "USERS";
    CREATE USER TestUser2 IDENTIFIED BY password DEFAULT TABLESPACE "USERS" TEMPORARY TABLESPACE "TEMP" QUOTA UNLIMITED ON "USERS";
    CREATE TABLE TestUser.TrigTable (TestColumn VARCHAR2(40));
    CREATE TABLE TestUser2.TestTable (TestColumn VARCHAR2(40));
    -- Grant Insert rights on TestTable to TestRole...
    CREATE ROLE TestRole NOT IDENTIFIED;
    GRANT INSERT ON TestUser2.TestTable TO TestRole;
    -- Add TestRole to TestUser. TestUser should now have rights to INSERT on TestTable
    GRANT TestRole TO TestUser;
    ALTER USER TestUser DEFAULT ROLE ALL;
    -- Now, create the trigger. This compiles unsuccessfully...
    CREATE TRIGGER TestUser.TestTrigger AFTER INSERT ON TestUser.TrigTable
    BEGIN
    INSERT INTO TestUser2.TestTable (TestColumn) VALUES ('Test');
    END;
    When I do a "SHOW ERRORS;" after this, I get:
    SQL> show errors;
    Errors for TRIGGER TESTUSER.TESTTRIGGER:
    LINE/COL ERROR
    2/3 PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
    2/25 PL/SQL: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    SQL>
    As I said above, if I just add the Insert rights directly to TestUser, the trigger compiles perfectly. Does anyone know why this is happening?
    Thanks!
    Adrian

    Hi Raghu,
    If the insert rights exist only on TestRole, and TestRole is assigned to TestUser, I can do the INSERT statement you suggest with no problems if I just execute it from SQLPlus (logged in as TestUser).
    The question is, why does the same INSERT fail when it's inside the trigger?

  • How do I configure 128 channels of DIO and 128 channels of Analog output with the availabili​ty of 3 pci slots

    I have only 3 slots of PCI or 4 slots of ISA bus, I want to configure with the minimum possible modules to attain 128 channels of DIO and 128 channels of analog output. This is inturn fed to the PCM (Pulse code Modulator). The cards will be placed in industrial PC.

    Associate Engineer-Marketing,
    Using just those 3 PCI slots you're not going to be able to get the 128 analog output channels. You will probably want to go either the MXI-3 (PCI bus extender) to a PXI chassis or E Series DAQ card to a SCXI chassis for such a high channel count system. Which analog output cards and which digital I/O cards you will want depends on your application. You will have to decide whether you will need static or dynamic analog output as well as whether you need clocked digital I/O or not. I highly recommend contacting our internal sales department at 1-800-433-3488. They are great at helping specify systems.

  • WorkFlow get triggered even if we set trigger for item update with SPEmailEventReceiver and workflow attached to same Library

    Hi All,
               I have a situation, SPEmailEventReceiver and WorkFlow is attached to same library, WorkFlow is configured to run after item is updated, but soon as the email is received in library the workflow
    is getting triggered, We have a action to create folder with subject and date and put the attachment with the date folder in SPEmailEventReceiver e.g: once a mail is received in library the SPEmailEventReceiver will create a folder with Subject and then Folder
    with Date and then put the attachment in the date folder so hierarchy will be subject folder/Date folder/attachment
    I have tried to alter the SquenceNumber attribute in Feature Element file to 1 and make the Synchronization as synchronous but no luck.

  • Show channels with own time channel and different length in one 3D graph

    Hi,
    How can i show channels with own time channel and different length in one 3D graph?
    My consideration looks like this, but i didn't found a solution with acceptable performance. ( i have many channels to merge and many data in them)
    i have 4 Channels 2 with values and 2 with time.
    Example:
    Pair 1:
    1 - 3
    2 - 4
    3 - 5
    4 - 8
    5 - 9
    Pair 2:
    1.5 - 6
    2.3 - 7
    4.5 - 8
    I want than this result:
    1 - 3
    1.5 - null
    2 - 4
    2.3 - null
    3 - 5
    4 - 8
    4.5 - null
    5 - 9
    And
    1 - null
    1.5 - 6
    2 - null
    2.3 - 7
    3 - null
    4 - null
    4.5 - 8
    5 - null
    thanks a lot

    Stefan

    Hi StefanF,
    You need to first create the timebase that you want (in this case with a 0.5 increment) using the "Generate Numeric Channel" ANALYSIS function, then use the resulting time channel in the "Linear Mapping" ANALYSIS function for each of the original channel pairs.

  • IPod working simultaneously with windows and mac

    Isn't there any way to get an iPod (from a mac) to work with windows without having to format the iPod? It's sad because I always had macs, and I have one at home- source of my iPod, and I work with windows during the day and all I wanted was to ear my music at the office...
    Hope there is a solution for this one without erasing my iPod...

  • How to play multiple instruments simultaneously on different MIDI channels?

    I'm very new (today!) to Mainstage and I have a Yamaha HX-3 organ with three keyboards (Upper - Channel 1, Lower - Channel 2, Pedalboard - Channel 3). I'd like to play all three channels live simultaneously with a different instrument on each one (ie. Piano, Organ and Bass) but I can't figure out how to do this.
    I've managed to setup a concert with all three keyboards on different MIDI channels with three different instruments but I can only play one of the keyboards at a time. The other two show MIDI keyboard activity but no sound...HELP!
    I also have Native Instruments Komplete 7 if that would help in this regard (I know the Hammond organ sound in Komplete lets me play all three keyboards at the same time).
    Thanks,
    Don Thompson.

    First create 3 keyboards in Layout mode and assign each to its own MIDI channel (I think you may have done this already). Then, create three channel strips, either at the Concert, Set, or Patch level with the three sounds you want to use. Each Channel Strip can be assigned to a different keyboard from your layout. To do this, go to Edit mode, select a Channel Strip, and look at its attributes in the pane below your layout. I don't have MS in front of me but there should be a dropdown list with the keyboards that you have in your layout. Just pick the right one for each strip and you should be good to go.

  • Multi-channel, well-coded and versatile oscilloscope vi

    I'm looking to make a really nice multi-channel (e.g. up to 8 signals or more displayed) "oscillscope" type program in labview. I have a board with 16 analog inputs, and would like to be able to display those (or choose from among them certain ones to display). It'd be great to have triggering, saving to csv format, re-scaling the voltage and time scales, etc... all operating on the fly, similar to a Tektronix TDS 2024 'scope, only with more channels. 
    I've looked at the examples that ship with Labview, and am familar with state-architecture and such that I'm sure I could make it all... but if someone already has something close to this it'd be a big time-saver.
    Anyone have any multi-channel, analog signal aquistion Labview VIs they like, use, or would be willing to share?
    Thanks!
    -Abe

    Hi Abe,
    Have you considered using NI-Scope Soft Front Panels?  You can configure your triggering, channels to display, scaling and save to file (though not csv format) all in this interface.  Also, If you haven't already, you may want to check out ni.com/community.  There are several user-posted Labview examples that could come close to what you're looking for.  Hope this helps!
