There are no inputs or outputs on the DAQ assistant to connect to

Hi everybody,
I am new to labview and have run into some difficulties with the DAQ assistant. I am running labview v8.0, NI-DAQmx v8.7.1 and have a PCI-6224 DAQ installed. It seems that when ever I drop the DAQ assistant (the instrument assistant, and the simulated DAQ has the same issue) onto the block diagram, and configure it, there are no inputs or output which I can wire a control or indiactor to. Is there a step that I am missing somewhere?
Thanks in advance!

Sorry, forgot to attach the end result. Note I did have errors come up, they may have been due to no DAQ cards in my PC.

In Labview 8.5, what happens if the signal input exceeds the signal input range set by the DAQ Assistant?

Hello all,
This should be a pretty simple question, but I can't seem to find the answer on-line and don't currently have the capabilities to test this:
I'm using LabVIEW 8.5 and have a VI that imports sensor data through the DAQ Assistant. In the configuration tab there is a signal input range. What happens if my sensor exceeds this range? Will I get a warning? Will the value default to the maximum (or minimum)? I was interested in writing in some code to display an error as I approach the limits of this range, but was unsure if I also needed to include some code to display an error if the range is exceeded as well.
Thanks for the help,
Tristan

Hello Tristan,
The behavior depends on the range you choose and the device you are using.
If you are using a device with only one valid input range, we will use this range even if you set a smaller minimum and maximum in the DAQ Assistant. Thus, if your device only supports ±10V and you set the range to ±8V, you will still continue to get valid data after your sensor exceeds 8V until you approach 10V. Once you reach the limit of the range of your device, the output will "rail" and just return the maximum value until the signal drops below the maximum again.
Note: A device that is nominally ±10V usually has some overshoot (like ±10.2V) that is typically specced in the manual.
However, if you are using a device with multiple input ranges then things get more complex.
The NI-DAQmx drive will pick the smallest range that fully encompasses the range you choose. So, suppose your device supports the following input ranges: ±0.2V, ±1, ±5V, and ±10V and you choose 0V - 3V as the range in the DAQ assistant. The NI-DAQmx driver is going to look at your input range and the list of input ranges that your hardware supports and choose the smallest that encompasses the full range you set. This would the ±5V, because that's the only range that contains up to 3V. As a result, any input signal between ±5V will be returned and any outside this range will "rail" to either the maximum or minimum value.
We do this because using smaller ranges make more effective use of the resolution of the ADC. Thus we try to use the most efficient range based on what you request without picking a range that will cause you to miss data.
Let me know if I can clarify this further.

ERROR: MyService.jws:715:There are two or more operations with the same schema-element 'ns0:MyNameSpace' on the input message in a web service file or callback interface.

I have two web service operations that have the same complex type as their input
parameter. I want to map this type to an existing schema. I can successfully
do this with the first operation using XQuery but when I attempt to do this with
the second operation I get the following error:
ERROR: MyService.jws:715:There are two or more operations with the same schema-element
'ns0:MyNamespace' on the input message in a web service file or callback interface.
ERROR: SUGGESTION: Use different schema-element values for each of those operations.
How can I use different schema-element values? The input parameters are to be
mapped to the same schema and same element since they are the same for both operations....

I am having the same problem. How did you resolve this..?? could you please tell me the solution??
Thanks

How to get the sine wave sample of the input and output in the same time?

I discovered that the samples were acquired did not in the same time in my vi.Could you tell me how to get the sine wave sample of the input and output in the same time?

Hello Yun_Zhu,
Your VI looks like you started from an example, and you are on the right track.
To clarify are you trying to synchronize the input and the output waveforms? If you you will need to share a time base and a start trigger. Check out the synchronization examples from LabVIEW

Audio input and output at the same time

Hello mac users.
I have one simple question: since the new macbook has one single audio port for both input and output, how could I, for example, play my guitar AND listen to the headphones at the same time?
I KNOW (because I've tried) that with the iPhone headphones with microphone the port CAN physically work at the same time for input and output, so the question is: what can I use to do that? Will a simple splitter do or do I have to use different tricks?
(I know there is a thread on this already, but it doesn't provide a definitive answer)
Thank you!

One of the first questions to ask...
Is the audio input stereo or mono?
When using a headset mic you're dealing with a mono input so you at least know the Mac is capable of that.
If it's mono, and I suspect it is, should be easy to either make or purchase a custom cable that has two female input connectors, one mono input and a stereo headphone input.
However, I'd probably just purchase a USB audio interface, the sound, both recording and playback will be head and shoulders above the Macbooks built in internal audio.

SSRS 2008 Column Chart with Calculated Series (moving average) "formula error - there are not enough data points for the period" error

I have a simple column chart grouping on 1 value on the category axis. For simplicity's sake, we are plotting $ amounts grouping by Month on the category axis. I right click on the data series and choose "Add calculated series...". I choose moving average. I want to move the average over at least 2 periods.
When I run the report, I get the error "Formula error - there are not enough data points for the period". The way the report is, I never have a guaranteed number of categories (there could be one or there could be 5). When there is 2 or more, the chart renders fine, however, when there is only 1 value, instead of suppressing the moving average line, I get that error and the chart shows nothing.
I don't think this is entirely acceptable for our end users. At a minimum, I would think the moving average line would be suppressed instead of hiding the entire chart. Does anyone know of any workarounds or do I have to enter another ms. connect bug/design consideration.
Thank you,
Dan

I was having the same error while trying to plot a moving average across 7 days. The work around I found was rather simple.
If you right click your report in the solution explorer and select "View Code" it will give you the underlying XML of the report. Find the entry for the value of your calculated series and enter a formula to dynamically create your periods.
<ChartFormulaParameter Name="Period">
<Value>=IIf(Count(Fields!Calls.Value) >= 7 ,7, (Count(Fields!Calls.Value)))</Value>
</ChartFormulaParameter>
What I'm doing here is getting the row count of records returned in the chart. If the returned rows are greater than or equal to 7 (The amount of days I want the average) it will set the points to 7. If not, it will set the number to the amount of returned rows. So far this has worked great. I'm probably going to add more code to handle no records returned although in my case that shouldn't happen but, you never know.
A side note:
If you open the calculated series properties in the designer, you will notice the number of periods is set to "0". If you change this it will overwrite your custom formula in the XML.

My iPod Touch (5th generation) is not responding to my touch. There are also several colored lines in the background of my screen. Virus?

Since my iPod isn't responding to my touch, I can't switch it off or restart it as I normally would. I've tried doing the hold-down-the-sleep-button-and-the-home-button-for-ten-seconds thing but when the Apple logo appears, it's either completely pink in color or there are these vertical colored lines in the background. When the lock screen reappears, sometimes it looks completely normal (but it still doesn't respond), or everything's blurred, or there are these weird colours in the background, or those lines I mentioned before, but most of the times, it's completely dark and I can onlu see this moving flash at the bottom of the screen (indicating the presence of the slide to unlock thing).
My computer was recently reformatted because it had had a virus, so I'm worried my iPod has gotten the virus too. I have some data on there that I really can't lose. (I haven't backed up this data because my computer had been on the fritz for the past two weeks).
Is taking it to an Apple Help Centre the only cure? (I purchased the item in March 2013; Is there any chance I can get it replaced for free?) I tried moving the photos from the device to my PC but it says there are no photos in my device. (I've moved my photos before when I'd forgotten my password and was about to reset it.)
I would really like some advice ASAP because if it is a virus, the longer I keep it untouched, the more havoc it causes. i fear.

I do not think talking to Apple will do more than the following:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

When adding a printer share within Print Management receive "There are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper."

I've installed Server 2012 as a print server (Print server will be the only function of this server). I'm now trying to add printers. The first one I've added is a HP 2035 with the Windows update HP Universal PCL6 driver. If I chose to share the printer
during the setup I receive "There are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper." If I choose not to share during the setup, it adds without any issues...until I launch Properties and attempt to share it. I'm finding it doesn't seem to
matter what driver I use, whenever I share I end up with the same result. I've also tried using the PCL6 Universal Driver from HP, no change. I'e been researching this issue for hours without any change. By default, we disable firewalls on servers (Some TN
thread suggested checking to ensure the firewall is disabled). Spooler isn't crashing. I've tried adding a few others printers, running into the exact same issue. Why is trying to share the printers causing this issue?

I've seen some people state they get this error when disabling the Windows Firewall service. I've never seen the error with the service disabled but it may be the replacement software interfering.
If it's off start up the service and let us know the outcome.

I imported about 300 RAW images yesterday and worked with them for about an hour. iPhoto locked up on me and I rebooted. After I did the event icon is now gray and it says there are no photos. I know the photos are there. Any idea how I can recover them?

a best practice to is to never have any computer program (including iPhoto) delete the photos from the card but to import the photos and keep them and then after at least one successful backup cycle has completed and then reformat the card -- I use three very large (32 GB) cards in rotation so I do not reformat for typically a year or more giving me one more long term backup of my photos

Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive. Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes. At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.

Take it to an Apple Store or other service provider for testing.

Is Apple providing any karaoke service such as selling karaoke software, whole set of karaoke hardware or even karaoke store? If yes, please give me information on this; If no, let me know if there are similar karaoke services providing in the future.

No, Apple does not. What other companies might provide what you're looking for I don't know. Try searching the web for "karaoke software" or something similar.

There is an unclosed comment block in the SQL statement. Ensure that there are balanced "/*" and "*/" comment markers in the SQL statement.

I get this error - when I try a Multi-line comment entry - by using the /* and */
"There is an unclosed comment block in the SQL statement. Ensure that there are balanced "/*" and "*/" comment
markers in the SQL statement."
Even though I am entering both the /* and the */.
I tried it many way - in the same line, in different lines etc..
like
/* Select xxx from xxx */
or
Select xxx from xxx
or
/* Select xx from xx
Please help anyone..! ;=(

But When I do a Help/About I see that it is
the SSMSE's Help About screen says "SQL Server 2005"
However I downloaded and installed SQL Server 2014 last night and was entering queries..
Most Select Queries work fine..
the -- comment line works fine..then I stumbled on the /* - */ does not work.
Thanks.
Well, you have two different version of SQL Server installed on your machine. Please connect again from SSMS to the SQL Server 2014.
