Tginkpad Yoga 15 customizat​ion?

Does anyone know when the thinkpad yoga 15 will have customization options? or at least the ability to buy a 16gb ram option like how it was announced at CES?Anyone have an idea when this would surface?

To add to this reply,  this assumes that the lenovo launcher is enabled.  You press the three dots at the bottom right of the screen and choose wallpaper.  It then allows you to select one of the stock wallpapers and gives you the option to set it on lock screen or desktop. 
If you want to set your own picture that is not so easy! You will need to install total commander and put the image in a folder as described in the 6th post in This thread. Not at all straightforward but possible!

  • NI 9871 best way to create customizat​ion to veristand

    I would like to use a NI 9871 module with NI veristand to communicate with some devices over RS485 using modbus protocol. I know that this device can be used in scan mode and VISA commands, but will not work with the EtherCat Scan Engine custom device. 
    I am wondering the best method to modify NI veristand.
    1. Create custom FPGA personality and write the drivers to directly interface with the ports on the device by modifying cRIO Modbus.lvproject http://www.ni.com/example/31166/en/. Expose the commmands as channels passed from the FPGA personality to the workspace and command those from the workspace.Current limitation, I am unsure how to modify this into a custom device or model due to the FPGA IRQ in the RT application used for timing. Can this be included in the custom device?
    2. Use the 9871 in scan-mode and write a custom device to interact with it using VISA command. Deploy Modbus I/O servier in custom device and send commands to shared variables from workspace. This would be easier and more robust driver, but I am unsure how to implement if my other 7 modules are using the scan engine custom device. I cannot implement this one in scan mode and the other seven in FPGA because of only 3 DMA.   
    3. Modify the Scan engine custom device to support 9871? Not sure if this is possible. 
    Thanks, 
    Mike
    4. Not use the NI 9871, and use the serial port on the Crio with a custom modbus device. This leads to a timing issue as I have five devices that I would like to interact with from one port. May reduce functionality. 
    Solved!

    An update, since I found a method that worked pretty well and was easier than I expected.
    If you are using the cRIO in scan mode with the scan engine custom device, the ports will show up in MAX for the 9871 module. I didn't realize this when I initially started the post above. From there you can utilize all the functions of the ports similar to the rs232 port that is included on the NI 9074. 
    I wrote a custom device that opened a VISA session to my port and then was able to implement the code I needed to communicate with my rs485 device. I was using modbus protocol and all of the functions worked inside of my custom device with no modification. I could also adjust the VISA settings in MAX and could run a VI from my pc that would send/recieve data to the ports. This will be useful as an additional way to test/change parameters on my rs485 devices outside of NIVS.
    One thing to note from my last post, deploying a Modbus library did not work. The shared variables from Veristand would not work correctly with the variables as they were configured in the modbus library that I deployed. I was able to manually set them from the distributed system manager. I could also make the variables standard shared variables and they would update from the NIVS workspace in the distributed systems manager, but would not change the value in the modbus server. I decided to ditch this and create a custom device that just used VISA vs. the shared variables. 

  • Please wait, Preload Customizat​ions in progress..​...

    Hi,
    Recently, my hard drive died on my T61 ThinkPad. I have received a new hard drive from Lenovo and having followed all the instructions to install the 4 recovery DVDs that came with the hard drive, I have now reached a stage where the screen reads:
    "Please wait, Preload Customizations in progress.....". Now I do realise that this process is very time consuming but can someone reassure me that nothing is wrong and I should be prepared to wait for as long as it takes?
    Any help will be highly appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    Dadzi

    As far as I can tell from my experience depending on your hardware it may take arounf 3 hours or more.
    Hope everything is allright wiht your machine as I write.

  • Gauge customizat​ion

    Hi,
    I need to custumize a gauge, There are some items that i can´t figure a way to do it:
    - Change the scale numbers to outside the gauge but maintain the scale ticks inside the gauge.
    - Increase the size of the scale ticks.
    - Change the color of some particular ticks (not all)
    Anyone have an idea how i can do this??
    I appreciate some help.
    Thanks.

    tst wrote:
    I don't think you can change the position of the ticks and numbers. I suggest you try using a knob instead (where the numbers are outside) and customize it to look like a gauge.
    Yes, we can change the position of the ticks and numbers (together), go to custumize, right click in the ticks and "Reverse Ticks".
    (but it's possible to do this in the slide, just drag the numbers to the other side of the ticks)
    I don't think you can do that either, but you can replace them with another image (like a thick line). Even so, the modification does not seem  to stick.
    Yes, but the image doesn't rotate around the gauge, so big trash.
    (but it's possible to do this in the slide, just resize the ticks)
    I don't think you will be able to do that at all. You can set seperate colors for the major and minor ticks in the properties, but I don't think you can set which is which.
    You might wish to try creating your indicator using the picture control where you can do everything yourself
    Yes, i know that i can separete the colors of major and minor ticks, but isn't that i want, i want just to color the ticks is some set point (alarms and warnings).
    Yes, yes,yes i can use the picture control, but i can also use assembler and specify all the pixels in the screen and i can also do everything.

  • [Yoga 2 11] Wifi connection problems, slow performanc​e, disconnect​ions.

    Hello
    Terrible wifi on the Yoga 2 11. I wish I had seen all the reports about it before purchasing this laptop.
    I tried installing another card, but I get the "unauthorized wifi card" error. (Card: Intel 7260HMW AC)
    Is there any workaround? Any new/better wifi card that actually works? Any official message from Lenovo? I don't really know where to begin.

  • Performance of S12 ION with WinXP?

    I currently have Win7 on my S12 ION.  I have 3gigs RAM on my S12 ION.  I am seriously considering wiping my HD and putting WinXP on instead.  I know there are people on these messageboards who own a S12 ION and have gone from WinXP to Win7, or from Win7 to WinXP.  I am interested to read your thoughts...
    - How is the performance of the S12 ION with WinXP compared to Win7?
    - How difficult was it to switch from Win7 to WinXP?
    - What do you miss in WinXP that you could do in Win7?
    - How difficult is it to maintain WinXP and get it to work with everything you do?

    Hi and welcome .. as spiritedguy says...
    but i think windows 7 (home premium is on S12 ION.. not the "ugly" starter edition ) .. is a younger fresher system... and forthcoming more accelerated and a better battery consumption driver will show as the power in the near future...
    XP is good on S12 ION but i dont think that you got the most of it .. depending on the driver situation (and adobe newer flashplayer) ...
    in conclusion you must decide on your own what is better or more convinient ...  ...
    The best solution in these times is a multiboot system... get the best of both

  • S12 ION BIOS

    Hi!
    I'm searching like crazy for the BIOS already installed on my S12 ION. The BIOS is called 21CN24WW.
    There is no BIOS available on the end-user site for this notebook. only for the VIA version.
    I have however googled the BIOS 21CN24WW and the first result.
    "IdeaPad S12 BIOS updates Nvidia (21CN24WW) - Lenovo Support
    Support new key part BIOS Version:Nvidia ...), you can get the information from the Logos on the C cover of the computer."
    The link leads to a site that says the following
    "Sorry, this document is restricted to Lenovo Field Servicers and/or Call Center Agents only. Please login with the authorized credentials. Thank you."
    http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=HT034685
    So the BIOS file be it either an .exe or .rom/.img must excist somewhere at Lenovo.
    Does anyone have this BIOS file or know a supporter @ Lenovo who could mail it to me?
    Thanks

    Hi Nordstrom,
    I found your bios on the Japanese support site.  Better get it with google unless you can understand Japanese.

  • S12 Ion - WinXp vs. Win7?

    I would like to read the experiences of people who own the S12 Nvidia ION and either...
    1. Had WinXP on the machine and switched to Win7.
    2. Had Win7 and switched to WinXP.
    How did WinXP run compared to Win7 on the S12 Ion?  Which did you prefer, and why? If you had/have WinXP on the machine, how difficult was it to install and how difficult was it to maintain?

  • Q150 - New Nvidia ION graphic driver

    Did anybody give a try to the newest 266.58 WHQL nvidia ION driver?
    Is it solving the now infamous 1080p HD stuttering?

  • S12 ION stuck pixel ?

    I have had my S12 ION for a little over a month now.  A few days ago I started seeing a bright blue dot which I think is called a stuck pixel on my display.  Now it is always there and is pretty annoying. 
    Is there anything I can do to get rid of the bright dot on my screen?
    Other then that, I have really enjoyed using this netbook. 
    Thanks

  • How to Clean install Windows 7 on my S12 ion

    exactly what the title says.  I think my s12 is a bit slow compared to what people are reviewing it as.  I want to remove the preinstalled software and be able to properly install the nvidia drivers and adobe flash, as i have run into some problems with that...

    Hi and welcome...
    but there is no way to make a pure windows 7 DVD ...and  loose the possible one key recovery ... 
    if you want to have these ..
    you have to make a Backup  before you do something wrong... there is no possibility to get needful things back  when partitionized the hdd.... Even One Key Recovery will be lost in space...
    No,  there is no possibility to made a Windows 7 Disk of hardisk content ... 
    If you have a full Windows 7 HP DVD and a key  (and a USB-DVD
    (dont know the OEM key works which is sticked on the bottom case)
    should be no problem ...to install a fresh windows 7 with fresh downloaded driver ...
    Windows 7 driver for your S12 ION you can found in the sticked area above
