Starting and stopping timer using external inputs interfaced with labview

hello,
I have trouble finding how to start and stop the timer using external voltage or current pulse. we are interfacing a circuit to labview. so for that we need to count the time it takes between the two external voltages. We have to keep on comparing the voltages to some reference voltage. And when the external voltage crosses the reference voltage we have to start the timer and again we have to stop the timer using tha same logic. We need it for time calculation between the triggers.
hope you can help.

https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-23334 is agood example to start. You need to modify it to include stop trigger.

    You don't need to upgrade your software.  But if you're struggling with Spry, IMO you should cut your losses and switch to something better for the longrun.
    If you have a budget to work with, I highly recommend Project Seven's Pop-Menu Magic 3.  It's easy to use in DW CS4, 5, 6 or CC.  More importantly, it's bullet proof and works in all devices.

    If you don't have a budget to work with, you can roll your own menus with jQuery plugins.  A bit more effort on your part, but they perform better than Spry.

  • Printing event start and stop times

    In month view, is there any way to have both the start and stop times for an event show when you print the calendar so you can see the duration of an event - thanks.

    You might be able to use this script to reset the start/stop times to zero.  Try with a small selection and see if it works for you.

  • My ipod nano 7th gen. won't save the changes I make to a song's start and stop time. How do I fix this?

    So I have a few songs that I don't like the intro to or the end of it that I had cut to where I wanted on my previous ipod. When I try to do the ame thing with this one with the start and stop time, it will work for awhile and then randomly start and stop where it had originally. I have done it like 4 times now for some songs and I can't seem to get it to stick. Suggestions?

    If you use the Sync feature in iTunes, then it needs to be done to the song in your Music Library, then synced with the iPod.  If you do not use the Sync feature and are performing the changes to the song on your iPod specifically, then the setting may be getting overwritten when you drag the song that's already on the iPod back onto the iPod.  It will overwrite all local settings for the song on the iPod with the settings in your library. 
    Try performing the changes to the song in your music library, and then dragging it back over to your ipod (or Sync your iPod if you use that feature).  This will make sure that the setting are consistent in both your library and iPod in-case you were to ever overwrite the song once more.

  • Reset song start and stop times

    Resetting start and stop times for all songs.
    Hi. I recently trialled a DJ BPM matching software product and unknown to me, it scanned all my songs and in the majority of cases, put new start and stop times (in seconds) so now when I play my songs in iTunes, they either start to play early and/or stop playing before they are complete.
    I can go and reset these parameters manually but I have 5000 songs so wondered if there was a utility or a file I could edit that would do this for me as its really annoying that the DJ software didnt reset these when I uninstalled it at the end of the trial period.
    Thanks

  • In Month View, showing start and stop times for appointments

    Hi, I want to show both the start and stop times for all appointments in my iCal Month view and have not been able to figure out how to do that. Any suggestions? - Dave

    I would also like to know how to do this if possible. I want to print month-view schedules with start and end times for events. Thought I'd bump this up to see if anyone has any ideas.

  • Is there a DJ app for the Ipad that will read the "start" and "stop time" setting for each individual song, as they are set in the song Options screen in Itunes?

    Is there a DJ app for the Ipad that will read the "start" and "stop time" setting for each individual song, as they are set in the song Options screen in Itunes? The Ipod Touch, by itself does not allow cross-fading, therefore when the stop time is edited short, the song jusst truncates then goes to the next song. I tried the DJay ap and while it would crossfade, it would NOT read the song settings for the stop marker. So now I want to try and Ipad and see if there is an app that will READ the Itune stop settings within the song. I do NOT want an app that will allow me to DO the stop marker. I want an app that will READ the stop marker from the song as it is set in Itunes.

    Itunes provides the option for setting the Start and Stop times of each music track.  However, the start and stop times do not synchronize to the iPhone.  I don't understand why this option is even available as it doesn't work when listening to music on the phone.  I have not found another application that will support the start and stop time markets.  I have searched quite a bit for this but can't find anything.  I hope we can find something.

  • HT1349 cant change start and stop time on aac file using PC

    I am trying to create a ringtone for my iphone.   So i created a AAC file of the song i wanted as a ringtone.  And I am doin exactly what the videos say.  So when i click Get INfo on the AAC file, it says i am supposed to be able to change the start and stop type. but it doesnt allow me to do so. 

    Set the start/stop where you want. Then right-click on the song in your library and choose "Convert Selection to mp3." This creates a new shorter file, files it by artist/album, and adds it to your library. It will play correctly inside or outside of iTunes.
    After you've confirmed the new one plays OK, you can either keep or delete the longer original, as you wish.
    Note that the above assumes that the source file is unprotected, which is true in your case, since you are starting with an mp3.

  • Start and Stop Trigger using PXI-6120 and DigitalSta​rtAndStopT​rigger.vi not working :-(

    Hello,
    I've been trying for a while now to get my PXI unit to capture a waveform between a Start and Stop (Reference) Trigger using the NI example DigitalStartAndStopTrigger.vi downloaded from the NI website. However, whilst the start trigger and stop trigger seem to be working i.e. the VI runs and stops at  the correct times there is never any data read from my DAQmx compatible PXI-6120 card. So I can see the VI is running around the aquisition loop but the Property Node AvailSampPerChan is always returning zero... this has me slightly puzzled. I thought this might just be a driver issue so I've updated my box to the following software versions (see below) and installed the latest drivers e.g. DCDNov07.exe (also from the NI site) but nothing has changed.
    my software as of now.
    Labview 7.1 (with the 7.1.1 upgrade applied)
    Max 4.3.0.49152
    DAQmx 8.6.0f12
    Trad DAQ 7.4.4f7
    before I updated I had the same problem but with the following versions:
    Labview 7.1 (with the 7.1.1 upgrade applied)
    Max 4.2.1.3001
    DAQmx 8.5.0f5
    Trad DAQ 6.9.3f4
    So to cut a long story short I still have the same problem with the triggers... does anybody have any ideas what is going wrong?
    To add insult to injury it the traditional DAQ example ai_start-stop_d-trig.vi was almost working correctly before I did the upgrade. It had the strange behaviour of capturing the AI0 channel but on the wrong edges (e.g. if I set Start on Rise and Stop on Fall it would do the opposite, Start on Fall and Stop on Rise).
    I'm going to leave my box doing a mass compile over night but i'd really like it if someone could suggest a solution or point me in the right direction.
    Many thanks,
    Mike

    Hi Graham
    I'm out of the lab today but I'll try and answer your questions as best I can...
    1) What are the values you have set for Buffer size, Rate, samples per read and post trigger Samples?
    At the moment I have all the values (e.g. sample rate, buffer size etc) unchanged apart from the ones I mentioned in my previous post (see above). I have in the past played around with changing the buffer sizes and rates in the example VI but as this appeared to have no effect on the behaviour I now have them setup as in the download.
    2) Does the program end after the stop trigger is implemented?
    Yep, if I toggle the trigger line high then low I see the program exits the read loop and the VI stops running as expected.
    3) Lastly can you give me the details of triggering method. Are you
    using a digital train of users set digital pulses? how long is the
    program running.I'm using the WriteDigChan.vi to manually toggle the first digital line of the PXI-6733 card which is wired directly to PFI0 of the PXI-6120 card. Generally, I just start the VI running  and then toggle the line high, wait a couple of seconds and then toggle it low.
    To me it all looks like it should be acquiring samples but as I said yesterday it just refuses to fill the buffer with any data (and hence no samples are read).
    Any ideas? and thanks for you help,
    Mike

  • Start and stop acquisition using a pulse train

    Hi
    As illustrated in the attached picture I would like to use a pulse train ( connected to PFI line) as a triggering devide to start and stop acquisition on rising edge
    Could you please help me to do it in LabVIEW. My problem is I have to use the same line to start and stop ( trigger and reference trigger ) and both should use rising edge
    Thanks

  • Start and Stop bpel using APIs

    Dear All,
    we have a production on 10.1.3.4
    we have a requirement to start and stop a list of BPELs including their adapters without shutting down the SOA Server.
    I could see in Process table there are values for life_cycle and active.
    is that the best way to inactivate a service ?
    Is there any API which can be used for the same ?
    Thanks for your advise.
    Best Regards
    Arc

    Hi,
    You can do certain things via IBPELDomainHandle (see [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/integrate.1013/b28986/com/oracle/bpel/client/IBPELDomainHandle.html]) but BPEL and the adapters are really no more than j2ee applications that run in an oc4j container. If you want to stop bpel or adapters you can stop the applications from the enterprise manager website. I think there are also oc4j administration java api's but i have no experience with them. I would certainly not update dehydration store tables.
    Kind Regards,
    Andre

  • PCI6601 - Start and Stop of all 4 counters individually in LabView 5.0

    Hi!
    I work with the PCI6601 card and I want to start and stop each of the 4 counters independent from the others.
    To start only one counter is quite easy, but two or more won't work.
    I have 4 external devices and want to know the counts of each device that means there are four sources.
    The Vi's in LabView 5.0 supports only the AM9513/8254/and the DAQ-STC. Perhaps there is no possibility to work with all features of the 6601 in LV5.0.
    I tried it with the counter list and with group# and the listed counters started with the internal frequency. But this is not what I want.
    Please give me some hints to "rescue the next nights".
    Thanks for your answers!
    Markus

    A couple comments that will hopefully let you sleep well tonight...
    1. If possible, use the counter functions whose icon show a "CTR" in the lower right rather than a "123". Do you have these in LV 5.0? I know they were available by 5.1.1, but am not certain about 5.0
    2. The 6601 doesn't support multiple counters in a group. To program 4 counters requires 4 config chains with 4 separate calls to "Counter Group Config". Note that each call must input a unique group #.
    You'll end up with 4 unique task id's which you can then start & stop independently of the others.

  • Start and stop time differ from iPod to computer

    I joined 2 .mp3 together using a music edtion program (the first song was 4:30 and the second one 3:40) making one long sound file. The stop time for the song in iTunes is set at 8:10.
    When I play the song on my iPod, it comes to a complete halt at 4:30 and my iPod turns dead, then moves on to another song after a few minutes (without playing anything in the meantime.)
    The same song played from iTunes on my computer doesn't do that, it plays till the end (8:10).
    Can anyone explain this?
    Do I need to edit the .mp3 files in a text editor, find the code (stop time reference) that causes the bug and resave it (what should I look for if that's the case?)
    Thanks

  • How can I transmit and receive messages using Vector CANTech CancardXL with LabVIEW?

    I'm a new LabVIEW user and I need transmit and receive CAN messages using a CancardXL from Vector CANTech with LabVIEW.
    Could somebody have any vi or suggestion?

    I made a set a LabVIEW VIs to work with Vector/Softing CANCards starting from an example program I downloaded from Softing. These use the Call Library Node to interface with the cards .dll.
    I can't give these out because they were developed for a customer. I would contact Vector and see if they have an example program for your card. Might be the same one I started with.

    Of course if you need help developing the VIs, we'd more than happy to assist you.
