Sorting Machine.SLDASM file from the labview \examples\Motion\SolidWorks\SolidWorks Files

Hi.
I'm new with labview. I need to use labview for my project for virtual pototyping.
Foe beginning, I'm trying the tutorials from http://www.ni.com/white-paper/9566/en/
I'm trying to open the below link both in LabVIEW and SolidWorks to understand the assembly operation.
<labview>\examples\Motion\SolidWorks\SolidWorks Files directory
I've looking for the 'Sorting Machine.SLDASM' file.
I've search everywhere but I can't find the directory for the file.
Really appreciate if anybody can tell me where I can find the link.
Thanks in advance.

The problem seems to be with Scan Engine.
Here is a screenshot of the error mesage when deployment:
Configuration:
OS: Windows 8 Final
LabVIEW Version: 2012 with all updates installed
NI SoftMotion Version: 2012
Solidworks Version: 2010 SP4
I doubt the problem lies in OS as all examples are running flawlessly except that with Mechatronics Examples. Hope to get any response from NI SoftMotion Team. Thanks for your assistance in advance.

How to save SOME time machine Mac backups from the TM disk to other disk WITHOUT formatting the destination disk?

Hi,
How to save SOME time machine Mac backups from the TM disk to other disk WITHOUT formatting the destination disk?
I have a Time Machine disk (A) including the backups of several different Macs (B, C, D & E) generated with an old Mac OS X 10.5.8 (iMac PowerPC) over the years.
I have transferred the old Mac contents to a new Mac with OS X 10.8.3 using Migration Assitant. All OK.
Now, I want to erase such TM disk A to use if for other purposes, but first, I would like to RECOVER the backups of some Macs inside it (D and E). Is that possible WITHOUT formatting the destination disk and selecting only some Macs from the TM disk and not the fulll TM disk? How?
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. I do not think that is messy, anway. I simply used the same external disk as Time Machine disk for different Macs. And that worked OK all the time for years.
The ExternalTimeMachineDisk contains the folder Backups.backupdb
which contains the following folders (each one corresponding to the Time Machine backup made from each Mac):
Mac1
Mac2
MacBook1
MacBook2
In relation to my message above, is it possible to select specific files, folders or full Mac backups from such Time Machine disk and save them to other disk? How?
Thanks.

I want to take (1 or 0 ) signals from the labview

i want to take (1 or 0 ) signals from the labview to drive the motor using pick what can i do ? somebody told me to use serial cable is it possible and if it is how can i ?

ok every one i am doing a fire fighting robot that search for the fire using camera i finished the lab view match pattern program and now i can find the fire and locate it in the image so i want to have from the pc any signal represented in voltage when the lab view program find the fire which mean i want to convert the softwear to hardwear this volt or signal i will take it on terminal of relay that will conduct the motor so the robot will continue moving and when the program of lab view didn't find the fire the signal output will be zero so the relay is off an the motor is off i think now every single information has been explained

Wow, that's one long sentence, and an interesting robot that needs to be controlled by software, for which LabVIEW is an excellent choice, but as others have mentionned it will not provide the voltage directly, but can control the device that does, such as a cheap trick by using telecom relays, which draw very little current and are actuated using a 5 volt signal, which could be from the parallel port, and the relay could be closed to provide up to 24v from a battery source to the motor.
So to recap:
PC > LabVIEW > algorithm > parallel port control > 5V actuated relay > provide power to the motor (but that means the PC has a tether from the parallel port to the robot)
However, from what I could understand, you already have the circuit which has a microcontroller. You could use the RS232 (serial) port and send the appropriate commands. What I would recommend is first trying to communicate with the microcontroller using a terminal emulator such as HyperTerm or TerraTerm or ProComm. That way, you could confirm that the motor / microcontroller is responding to the appropriate commands. Once you are satisfied with the communication, you can easily implement using LabVIEW.
There are many examples of serial communication within this forum. You can also do a search under the Help Menu and select Find Examples. Within that enter serial as the keyword to search. You will find 2 interesting examples a casic and and advanced serial communcation vi's. Do have a look at the advanced examples as it will most likely be better suited for you. You can modify the code to suit your needs.
Enjoy!

Has anyone ever succeeded to use the scope_identity() from the LabVIEW DB toolkit ?

Hi,
Using LabVIEW 2014 DS, and MSSQL 2008R2.
I have configured a table with identity, so the indexed will be incremented automatically.
I am trying to get the ID of the last Insert command that I am using.
I am trying to SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY() but with no success.
I read about trying to so it with a procedure or transaction, but I just could not succeed myself.
Has anyone ever succeeded to use the scope_identity() from the LabVIEW DB toolkit ?
If yes, can you please elaborate more or even share the code ?
Thanks,
Amitai.

Yes I have...let me dig out some code...
I do my INSERT query (with a semicolon at the end) and in the same query string do a "SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY() as inserted_id;" - essentially what you're doing here is running two queries in one - one to insert your data and the second to retrieve the ID. From what I remember of when I did this (last year?), I think scope_identity() is valid for the same connection so as you're doing both queries in the same connection it should always be valid.
I then do this to get the ID (pardon the crappy VI snippet):
Essentially I execute the query and the result is a 2D array that contains one row/column which is your last inserted ID.

BUG: Sorting drop-down lists from the field tab when using "specify item values"

Hi all,
I've finished creating my form now, but I came across this whilst writing up my documentation for maintenance tasks.
This occurs when adding new values to a drop-down list that has the "Specify item values" checkbox in the binding tab checked.
When I then try to sort my list using the built in sort buttons, it will sort the items, but the list of specified values in the binding tab does not sort reorder to stay with the original items in the list. This is hapenning when I sort from the Object > Field tab. If I sort in the Object > Binding tab then the sort will include the specified values.
For example:
A    5
C    2
D    9
Add a new value to get:
A    5
C    2
D    9
B    10
Sort the list using the button:
A    5
B    2
C    9
D    10
But it should be:
A     5
B     10
C     2
D     9

I was able to duplicate this problem and it looks like a possible bug. I've submitted it to support.

From the Community: Example Community Apps for general use and ideas

Hello,
I believe it makes sense if we have an overview thread on the example apps that have been created either to help a user or (why not) just show off.
Some simple rules:
1 post per application
Follow the structure as in the first post: Name, Description, Download link, Creator
"I love this", etc. This is a functional thread to help the community not a discussion.
If someone from the core team could make this sticky it would be highly appreciated

Multifunction Printer/Scanner/FAX machines and FAXing from the desktop.

I've got a Canon MP530 thanks to an Apple Bundle and after a lot of gyrations, it has come down to be that neither I, Canon, nor Apple can make this unit send or recieve FAXs from the desktop!
Apple seems to be "stunned" (better word than "clueless") about this lack of functionality. Canon's response is (literally) "Buy a PC."
I know I can do software that will let me FAX but but that is not an option at this point. I've got four machines who all can plug into the same printer/scanner/unit and there's no reason that this machine shouldn't be able to send a FAX for me.
So, I'm here posting this message wondering if anyone has purchased an "All-in-one" unit (preferably part of an Apple bundle) that supports printing from the computer, scanning to the computer, and FAXing to and from the computer and that they've actually used (themselves) and seen work.

Yes absolutely. I set it up last Fall and have been using it until last week, at whick time I lost wireless connectivity with router for no reason at all. I can not remember how to do it now and I am looking for the answer myself.
This link to an online chat on www.hp.com with a tech might help you.

I unfortunately upgraded my browser to IE8 last week and the chat support online does not support that browser. If you get an answer, I would appreciate it if you would post the answer on this thread so that I can re-learn it myself. Thanks. Good Luck.

Editing text in graphic in site #3 selected from the GoLive examples

Hi All
I own v6 and am using the CS2 tryout and am looking to buy the v9 edition. I have created a site in v6 and upgraded it to cs2. I have looked in the manual without success for the answer to the following four questions:
1. The top of each web page has a graphic on it which text which is presumably editable when creating/customising the page. I cannot see how I "open" the graphic to edit the text.
2. The graphics also have (pixel?) sizes on them. I am not sure how to remove them.
3. If I wanted to eplace some of the graphics what is the best procedure?
4. How do I set the margin for the text in cells/tables? I have one cell/table where the left hand text goes all the way to the margin. I'd like a couple of pixels of margin (white space).
Answers or suggestions for any of the above would be appreciated. TIA/gary

Hello,
1. If it's an image, you'd need to edit the image in a graphics editor outside of GoLive (Photoshop, Fireworks, etc.).
2. If you select the image, the pixel size should show up in the Inspector. Try changing it from the pixel setting to "image" in the pulldown menu (meaning don't set a specific size, just use the image as-is).
3. Are you looking for ways to re-build the graphics, or re-insert new graphics after they're made. If the former, see #1 above. If the latter, and you've already added the graphic to your site window, then you should be able to either drag and drop the new image over the old, or use the Inspector to re-link the source attribute to another file (and change the size).
4. Using old-school HTML attributes, you could select the image and set the hspace and vspace in the Inspector. Otherwise, the preferrable solution would be to use the CSS Editor to, for instance, make a new class style with the desired margins, and assign that class to the image in the CSS palette.

Sorting Audio when inserting from the library

Using Captivate 5, I am adding audio to slides from the library. The library is sorted by name ascending. When it is accessed in the dialog box shown below, the sort order is unknown. I have to examine the entire list to find the item I need. Is this a bug or is there a remedy?

Can you please make sure, whether the book you are trying to copy has the Copy Permission allowed?
Also please have a look at the solution provided in thread having similar problem, error message "no permission to copy document here"

Adding Sleep-and-Music to Toshiba machine without it from the factory?

Is there any way to add the sleep and music feature to my Satellite A355? I would love to install this on my computer if at all possible.

FYI, you sync, or copy, items to an iPhone. Not "download."
To not sync apps you don't want from the iTunes library, unselect them in iTunes. They won't sync anymore.

Why do the LabVIEW examples that use the queue design have one loop in the top level and all the others as subvis?

Specifically the Weather Monitor example under connectivity/Web Services and the FPGA design examples.
There are several parallel loops. One of the parallel loops will be in the top level VI. The others are all in sub-VIs. After the third example I was looking at it seemed obvious this was being done as a standard, but I don't know why it matters.
Why not all of them as SubVIs? Why not all of them as top level loops? (Well OK maybe not that one.)

For me, it depends on what is happening in the parallel loops. When I have modules that just need to run in parallel with the main loop, it helps reusability to have it a a subVI call. I can then just copy that library to another project and use it.
There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

Why is the Keyer in FCP X different from the Keyer in Motion 5?

I'm dissapointed that the advanced features for the Keyer in Motion 5 aren't available in FCPX, ie Spill supression, Light wrap etc. It seems that they should be the same in both programs. This wouldn't be a problem if you could round trip more easily between the two programs.

But all the filters that are now in FCP X are just extensions of those built in Motion. That's what rigging and publishing is all about. So why not just add all the features of the Motion Keyer when it goes to FCP X? Which I guess is something I can do myself.

Cannot open image pgm file from the labview support's code

I use the face data base from http://cbcl.mit.edu/software-datasets/FaceData2.html
and I want to open the .pgm face image with the instructions by http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/897F7AA54F2419CE86257377004EA947
but now it comes to the error and I don't know why.
I follow the instructions to get the header for 13bytes first using read the binary.vi
Then, I read the rest of the data using read the binary.vi
Then, I reshape the binary data to 2D-array.
Finally, I convert the array to image and using IMAQ to show.
I have bring the
1.error_message
2.source code
in the attached files.
And the face pmg I have open it with gimp and work correctly.
The face pmg image file I testing is https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByMlz1Uisc9ORUIxZzloQkk5UG8/view?usp=sharing

Looks like the biggest issue is that the datatype of the "type" integer going to the seond read from binary was not U8 and so the byte spec didn't match up.

PB with the labview example "CAN Transmit multiple" doesn't work

Hello,
I have a problem with the example "Can transmit periodic" I joined it with the post...
I use CAN0 and I put 500 000 for the bauds rate.
I have an error:
"NI-CAN: (Hex 0xBFF62007) Vous avez essayé de définir un attribut de configuration pendant l'exécution d'un objet. Solutions : configurez les attributs avant l'ouverture de l'objet ; arrêtez et relancez la communication de façon à pouvoir mettre à jour les attributs de configuration."
In english: "I try to define an attribute of configuration during the execution of an object. Solutions: configure the attrubutes before open the object"
Have you the same problem?
