System Time meets set time - Alarm

2 Different questions.
E:
Eased up my program.. I think.
Now I need more simple things(I think).
This is what I planned:
I have a string, what shows the current system time.
Below there is and editable DateField.
Now, when these 2 times, the real and the set time, meet each other, it launches an alarm -> Which will shut off after 5 seconds.
You think you can help me with that?

How to create a type of 'alarm event' based on acquired sensor data and system time?

Hello all,
I'm fairly new to LabVIEW and have successfully created a VI that reads voltage data from sensors. Each sensor outputs 2 voltage values and I treat these values as 2 different DBL values. I'd like to be able to record each voltage value as a base and then compare the subsequent data readings with that base. Once the base is determined, I'd like a sort of 'variable' set as "TIME" to be recorded at the moment the base voltage is recorded.
The alarm should occur (or anything Boolean set to TRUE I guess) once the continuously read voltage remains within certain limits for about 2 hours. I know I can compare the system time w/ the "TIME" that the voltage base value was recorded. If the voltage readings escape those limits, I'd like the voltage base value reset and the TIME set to the corresponding system time again.
I apologize in advance if this I haven't' described my problem well, but if anyone could help me figure out the best way to create this code, I would appreciate it much!
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

ill try to illustrate a couple scenarios:
keep in mind that i dont necessarily want the voltages in these specific ranges, but just a range of +/- 20 mV ... in an above post i refer to a "base" voltage reading, in this case that would be 200 mV for V1 and 400 mV for V2, just because the voltage has shifted to those values for an extended amount of time each (> 2 seconds)
Scenario 1
1:00 pm
Sensor readings
Voltage 1: 200 mV
Voltage 2: 400 mV
between 1:00 and 3:00 pm:
Voltage 1 does not deviate from 180-220 mV range
Voltage 2 does not deviate from 380-420 mV range
at 3:00pm I want an alert/alarm/Boolean to change to 'true'
Scenario 2
1:00 pm
Sensor readings
Voltage 1: 200 mV
Voltage 2: 400 mV
at 1:45 pm:
Voltage 1: 2 mV
Voltage 2: 600 mV
Since the voltage has shifted out of the range, i want the new base voltage to equal whatever it changed to out of the range, and also the time spent within the new range (2 +/- 20 mV and 600 +/- 20 mV, respectively for V1 and V2) would be reset, so a new 2-hour counter would begin

How to set system time from Terminal while booted from 10.6.3 server install disk?

I'm installing from a 10.6.3 server install disc onto a Mac Mini. However, the battery on this Mac Mini is pretty much dead, forcing the system time back to 1/1/2001. Through some research, this has created a problem in that I cannot move beyond the Welcome screen during setup of OS X server. It looks like the binary has issues with the system time being older.
But I'm stuck in that I don't know how to adjust the system time from the Terminal Utility on the boot CD. Can anyone help?

Hey, i just run in to something similar, tonight while trying to fix a computer.
The user set the time and date on his computer to 1998 and computer locked everything including time and date in system preferences, and his user account basicly making him from administrator to guest. he could not almost any program properly that required administrator privilages.
to fix this we used this comand in terminal " sudo date 201703162014 " todays time and date
20:17 03/16 2014
we tryed everything and this fixed in 2 seconds
ps: when you type sudo in terminal it whil give you a warning the improper use of this command is bad.... click continue.otherwhise you will not be able to execute the command.
thanks again for this post and have a great day

Help please - how to set an alarm with time?

Hi guys,
I have got a task here, basically it required me " to displays the time and can set an alarm, which sounds at the right time." (when match it)
Well, I have created 2 edit boxes, and a button and a radio box. When I typed both the equal string into the edit box, the string will say match! However,I couldn't show the time that run by thread code...
any guess?
here is the code:
import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.util.Date;
public class j27 extends Applet {
AudioClip audClip;
String Msg1=null;
String Msg2=null;
Label info;
TextField box1Text;
TextField box2Text;
Checkbox charTrue;
int myVar1=0, myVar2=1;
Font theFont=new Font("TimesRoman", Font.BOLD, 24); //
Date theDate; //
Thread runner; //
public void init() {
info = new Label ("string and integer demo j27.java");
add (info);

public boolean action (Event event, Object object) {
if(event.target instanceof Button) {
Msg1=box1Text.getText();
Msg2=box2Text.getText();
if (charTrue.getState() !=true) { //test for text or integer input
myVar1 = Integer.parseInt (Msg1); //if integer input convert string
myVar2 = Integer.parseInt (Msg2); }
repaint(); }
return(true);
public void start()
if (runner == null)
runner = new Thread (this); //new thread
runner.start();
public void stop() {
if(runner!=null) {
runner.stop(); //kill thread
runner = null; }}
public void run()
while(true)
theDate = new Date();
repaint();
try {Thread.sleep(1000);} //thread sleeping 1 second
catch (InterruptedException e) {}
public void paint (Graphics g) {
g.setFont(theFont);

if (Msg2 !=null) g.drawString( "box2=" + Msg2, 30, 150);
if (charTrue.getState()==true) { //text for text or string
if (Msg1.compareTo(Msg2)==0) g.drawString ("strings match!", 30, 160); }
else
if (myVar1 == myVar2) g.drawString ("integers match!", 30, 170);
else
audClip = getAudioClip(getCodeBase(),"loop.au");
audClip.loop();
}

You can use the call library function node. Once you drop it on your block diagram double click it and you will be able to select the dllyou want to use. Choose kernel32.dll and you will see methods listed called getsystemtime and setsystemtime. Use those

Program to Set System Time in Java

Is there any way to set the system time through Java. If there is can you help me some information.
Regards,
Shivakumar Thota

Hey Hey,
You could run Runtime.exec() to execute a command such as VBScipt to do it.
Other than that you may have to take a look at Java Native Interface(JNI) that will basically take control of doing anything you need.
Also, You may want to post this in "New To Java" or some other forum other than Java Web Start. You'll get more people to help ya.
Hope this helped,

Set system time in both unix and NT

i need to write a software to be run on the 2 platforms to set the system time if anyone know how to go about doing it please guide me along and provide me some code.
thanks in advance

You cannot set the system time using pure Java, so I guess you'll have to use JNI or Runtime.exec().
If you use JNI, you'll have to set up a native method and the build a different DLL for each platform. From my point of view this is the cleanest way.
Using exec() requieres to detect the system your program is running on, and then call the appropiate external program or command.

Set system time to myrio programmatically synchrinized with GPS

Hello,
I have succesfully connected the PMOD GPS to my RIO and i extract the time and date string from the NMEA sentence in the following format:
Time: HH:MMS
Date: DD/MM/YY
I would like to synchronize myrio system time to the GPS time. I have tried to use the nisyscfglvlib: Set Time.vi. For test purposes i try to set the time using a time stamp constant like the attached picture. However, when i run this code i get the following error. Where i can find this library and how do i add it to myrio? I
LabVIEW: Failed to load shared library nisyscfg.*:nisyscfg_lv_sysapiPropertySetString:C . Ensure that the library is present on the RT target. Use either MAX to install NI software or FTP to transfer custom libraries to the RT target.
LabVIEW: Failed to load shared library nisyscfg.*:nisyscfg_lv_rmcfgPropertyGetItem:C . Ensure that the library is present on the RT target. Use either MAX to install NI software or FTP to transfer custom libraries to the RT target.
Is there another way to set the time of myrio programmatically?
Thank you,

Hi ckyamaha,
Below is an example on how to set a real time system's time using the System Configuration API.
https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-20082
It sounds like you may need to include the library on your myRIO when you configure it in NI-MAX. If you haven't already installed the System Configuration API, you can do so from this link: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-13216
You can add the library to your myRIO in the Add/Remove Software menu in NI-MAX. Instructions for installing software using NI-MAX can be found here: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/373925A-01/myriohelp/myrio_advanced_config/

Synchronize system time and set system time zone in SAP

Hi,
How to Synchronize system time and set system time zone in any SAP system?

Nabarun -
Setting of the system time may be different depending on your enviroment and systems. (Windows, AIX, etc)
Windows enviroment you can use a time server or net time command, I believe its simialr with UNIX but I do not know that command.
Setting the time zone in SAP is done through the IMG in client 000. You can get there with transaction SPRO.
Once in the IMG, navigate to:
SAP Netweaver
General settings
Time Zones
Maintain Time Zones (here you can define the time zone settings/rules)
Then go to:
SAP Netweaver
General settings
Time Zones
Maintain System Settings
There you can change the time zones for the system.
Hope this helps.

RE6500 system time not set and, why set a DNS address?

How do I set the RE6500 system time to current day if it's showing January 1970? It is connected to the router on both frequencies and the extender output is working on both frequencies. I have set the RE6500 to a static address of 192.168.1.3 as the router address is 192.168.1.1. In the RE6500 the default gateway is set to the router address of 192.168.1.1. Is it necessary to set the DNS address in the RE6500 as the router is the default gateway?

Hi Chadster766; thanks for the prompt reply. I tried using the external primary DNS address set in the router - saving and rebooting - and when that didn't work, I used the same IP address as the router 192.168.1.1. That didn't work either; I did a warm re-boot of the computer after setting the DNS in the RE6500. What am I missing or, should I reinstall the RE6500 and use the default DNS settings? I'm using Windows 7 Sp1 and the RE6500 icon does not appear in Network, so it appears to be an issue between Windows and the RE6500.

System time was set externally in the past.

Hi Gurus,
In our production system,several warning messages have come up System time was set externally in the past. Wait 1 second(s).
But when i checked the system time it showing the same as OS's.
Could you please throw some information around this and how these warnings can be avoided?
Thanks

Hi Sabyasachi,
What's your OS Version?
Is your SAP application hosted on Windows Server.
Please check-out SAP Note-447839.
Also to brief you about this common issue where in sometimes the OS time is reset back in the past and the SAP application observes this an warning and in severe situations as an ABAP dump.
On windows server, if the automatic synchronization of timezone is enabled it synchronizes to a master time server. Actually this should be fine, but in case of Windows server, what happens is that every time the synchronization happens from a master time server, the SAP server gets a hard reset i.e. Sudden decrease of time at the time of synchronization like from 11:45 AM to 10:45 AM. This kind of behavior affects the applications running on the server. This should have been soft reset i.e. 11:45 AM time should go back in time in fractions over the entire week (Soft Reset) until it is synced in real time. SAP applications running on windows server implemented with Hard reset of Time are absolutely not supported and in that case the hard reset must be refrained at all costs. Refer SAP Note 447839 for further details.
To narrow down the root cause of OS time shifts you can run a watchdog tool SAP time trace tool which logs the OS time every 5secs, so the next time whenever this occurs in the system it can be investigated what happened to the OS time at that instance.
If the described case matches with your scenario, you can disable the Automatic time synchronization feature on the windows server.

Akshay

Set Mac system time from Labview

I'm trying to set the Mac system time from my Labview VI.
The description of my problem is that I'm using a laptop and require that the battery be removed. So, every time I power up the Mac laptop the System Time is reset to a default time way back in the 60's or 70's.
I've got an instrument that keeps current time, so I can read the time from it and use it to set the Mac time.
Ok, so I assume that I need to use an Applescript and send an AppleEvent to the Finder. The details escape me though, and the Help system doesn't work for the AppleEvent VIs (I get a Work document with 4 words and nothing else).
ANY help would be appreciated, especially if there is an easier way to set the time. But any AppleEvent help would also be appreciated.

You may be right, I need to take the laptop apart and find that battery.
I've been inside the laptop before and it's not easy...
But thanks for the idea

Hi,
We are getting the follwing message in our production environment.

The system time is same as SAP time
Pls let me know of what has to checked to correct the issue
Edited by: Balaji Rajendran on Jun 20, 2008 5:18 PM

Hi,
Time zone can be changed at SAP level and this reflects at database level.
Have look at these transactions.. Check your logs and see wthhr someone changed the time zones.(sm20/st03(n)/stad)
STZAC Maintain time zone act.in client
STZAD Disp.time zone activate in client
Also check note 198411

Make an alarm from the system time.

I have tried a variety of formats to get an alarm at 8:00PM.
For instance, \..\$System.time=20:00:00.0 does not work.
Maybe I need to use the raw value, i.e. 8/13/04 10:40 is 38212.44444477.
Each minute changes by ~ ..00069455 -- yikes.
It seems like it should be a standard thing.
I need redundancy to shut off the superconducting magnet when the liquid helium is low in the evening.

JB cyclotron
Check TimeOfDay object out. This object generates a logical signal at a given time of the day (Timer offset) and adjustable duration (Timer Duration).
Use it as the condition of the alarm.
I'm sending attached an example.
Good Luck

How do I set the system time?

Hello
The system time can be read using System.currentTimeMillis(), but, how can I set it?
Thanks

several approaches:
you could use the OS function to set and call it via Runtime.exec().
For WIndows e.g.: "time 08:15:00" to set the system time.
