Time between to time

Hi, experts
Can i get a method that give the time between two time.
I have two times 'oEditHEmb' and 'oEditHDeb'  which are in two columns. I want to calculate the time between these two times.
Pls help.

hello freind try this function
hear yu can use  dtmStart  and dtmEnd for yur 1 colum and second colum
Function TimeDiffString(ByVal dtmStart As String, ByVal dtmEnd As String) As Decimal
        Dim intHrs1, intMins1, intSecs1 As Decimal
        Dim intHrs2, intMins2, intSecs2 As Decimal
        Dim hrs, min As Decimal
        'Dim strHrsString, strMinsString, strSecsString As String
        'Dim dtmEnd1 As Date
        'dtmEnd1 = DateTime.ParseExact(dtmEnd, "HHmm", Nothing)
        If (dtmStart.Length < 4) Then
            dtmStart = "0" & dtmStart
        End If
        If (dtmEnd.Length < 4) Then
            dtmEnd = "0" & dtmEnd
        End If
        intHrs1 = Convert.ToDecimal(dtmStart.Substring(0, 2))
        intMins1 = Convert.ToDecimal(dtmStart.Substring(2, 2))
        intHrs2 = Convert.ToDecimal(dtmEnd.Substring(0, 2))
        intMins2 = Convert.ToDecimal(dtmEnd.Substring(2, 2))
        hrs = intHrs2 - intHrs1
        min = intMins2 - intMins1
        If (hrs < 0) Then
            Return (-1)
        ElseIf (hrs = 0) And (min < 0) Then
            Return (-1)
        ElseIf (hrs = 0) And (min = 0) Then
            Return (0)
        ElseIf (hrs = 0) And (min > 0) Then
            Return (1)
        ElseIf (hrs > 0) Then
            Return (1)
        End If
    End Function

  • How do I use the time capsule to share itunes music between multiple apple devices? Also, is it possible to control the music on one device using another, and how do you set this up?

    How do I use the time capsule to share itunes music between multiple apple devices? Also, is it possible to control the music on one device using another, and how do you set this up?

    unless i'm missing something, i think you got mixed up, this is easy google for walk throughs
    i'm assuming this is the new 3tb tc AC or 'tower' shape, if so, its wifi will run circles around your at&t device
    unplug the at&t box for a minute and plug it back in
    factory reset your tc - unplug it, hold down reset and keep holding while you plug it back in - only release reset when amber light flashes in 10-20s
    connect the tc to your at&t box via eth in the wan port, wait 1 minute, open airport utility look in 'other wifi devices' to setup the tc
    create a new wifi network (give it a different name than your at&t one) and put the tc in bridge mode (it may do this automatically for you, but you should double check) under the 'network' tab
    login to your at&t router and disable wifi on it
    add new clients to the new wifi network, and point your Macs to the time machine for backups

    I want to be able to play my music on the time machine from any of my apple devices and it update one music Library.
    Is there a way i can do this?
    Regards and thanks for your time

    You can sync your music to each of your devices using the iMac which is referencing the library on your itunes. So all good there. If you want to share the information amongst all your devices then home Sharing will do it. But only if you are in your own network.
    If you want to use the same klibrary on your Macbook as your iMac you can point it at the Library on the time capsule.
    If you want the content on your Macbook then Home Sharing between computers will let you copy it but it will not copy over playlists etc
    Using home sharing you have to have itunes open on your iMac so that the other devices can see it. Also ensure that sleep is not set for your computer.

    If you look at the table which is output of the given query , there is column called "STATE_ID" It shows the current state ie open or closed or all report.
    The column 'PREVIOUS_STATE' shows the state before the current state. .In the table in 2nd row in previous_state column there is state_id = 1 (open)which is the state before 'all report state'

  • Reporting on open orders between 2 times - suggestions

    Hi all,
    I'm looking at creating a report that shows the differences in open orders on the system between 2 times and need some suggestions as to how to tackle this.
    Our ORDER_LINES table has the order/line number and an effective from/to date plus all of the product order, quantity, etc.
    So I'm wanting to be able to put 2 date/times in, a beginning and end, and be able to report on the movement of open orders between 2 points in time. Example - say today at 8am we had open orders for "widgets" quantity totalling 100, at 5pm today we had open orders quantity totalling 90 ( nett movement of -10), however that was made up of 100 new widgets orders and 110 were fulfilled.
    My initial thoughts were to create a dashboard prompt with 2 dates and 2 times, into presentation variables date_1, time_1, date_2, time_2, and have the resuklting report be run as a combined query, running smilar reports selecting the date/time 1 and date/time 2 respectively Then using a pivot table produce the report by means calculated columns that do an end date - start date calculation.
    has anyone else come across producing similar styles of reports?
    Thanks
    B

    My suggestions,
    Have a look at your cube and understand the field available -
    1,Open orders 0-3 months  - Document no where status is open and creation date is in last 3 months. Restrict sales key figure on status and creation date.
    2, Open orders 4-6 months - Document no where status is open and creation date is in last 3 months. Restrict sales key figure on status and creation date.
    3,Turnover past 12 months - Sales of last one year - restict sales on doc date (last 12 months)
    4,Open orders >6 months - Document no where status is open and creation date is in last 3 months. Restrict sales key figure on status and creation date.
    5,Trdae receivables - sum(check out the field in cube)
    7Metal Exposure - sum (check out the field in cube) and restrict it to Metal
    Hope it helps

  • LabVIEW/SignalExpress: How can I automate measuring the time between two pulses?

    Hi everyone, bit of a newbie here so please bear with me.  
    I'm a student at a university conducting a muon decay experiment with an oscilloscope connected to some photomultipliers.  To summarize, if a muon enters the detector it will create a very small width pulse (a few ns).  Within a period of 10µs it may decay, creating a second pulse.  The oscilloscope triggers on the main pulse 5-15 times per second, and a decay event happens roughly 1-2 times per minute.  I am trying to collect 10 hours of data (roughly 1500-2000 decay events) and measure the time it takes for each decay.
    I've been able to set recording conditions in SignalExpress that starts recording on the first pulse and stops recording on the last.  The Tektronix TDS 1012 oscilloscope however feeds 2500 points of data from this snapshot into a text file (for use in excel or other software).  Even if I perfectly collected the data, I would have 100,000+ data points and it would be too much to handle.  I don't know how (or if it's possible) to reduce the sample size.
    To conclude, using Labview or SignalExpress, I would like to be able to have the software
    1.  Differentiate between the single pulse detections and double pulse decay events
    2.  Record only when two pulses appear on the oscilloscope
    3.  Measure the time between these two pulses and ONLY that to minimize the amount of data recorded.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, thanks!

    Hi wdavis8,
    I am not that familiar with Tektronix, but there should be a place in the dialog that you go through when you create the action step to acquire date to specify a sampling rate. That would allow you to reduce the number of data points you are seeing, but may reduce the quality of the data.
    If it’s just a matter of that much data being hard to dig through when you have that many points, you could do some analysis on the data after the fact, and then create a new file with only the data you want to look at. For example, you could identify the peaks in the data, and based on the distance between them or the difference in magnitude, selectively write data to a new file.  
    Here is some information about peak detection in LabVIEW:
    http://www.ni.com/white-paper/3770/en/
    You could also do some downsampling on the data to get fewer data points:
    https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-23952
    https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-28976
    Those are just a few quick ideas.

  • VISA Write differs between TS Development System and LV Run-Time Engine

    Hi all
    I made an application on LabVIEW to test BERs (Bit Error Rates), and I used VISA Write between two COM ports to exchange data.
    Everything works fine using just LabVIEW.
    Afterwards, I used TestStand to call my application (VI). The LabVIEW adapters from TestStand were set to Development System by default, and everything works OK!!
    Finally, I needed to disable the development system, and set the LabVIEW adapters from TestStand to LabVIEW Run-Time Engine and I notice that the speed of the data exchange between the two COM ports decreased dramatically.
    The only difference was the speed...because all the data (changed slowly in this case) arrived correctly on the other COM port too.
    The symptom was the same as decreasing the baud rate...but the baud rate and all the other configurations remained the same. The only difference was the change between Develpment System to Run-Time Engine to notice this decreased speed between the exchanged data using VISA Write.
    Any solutions for this?
    Thanks in advance

    Joao,
    you state that using the LV Developement System as execution platform for your LV code modules result in faster datatransfer between the COM ports than using the LV Run-Time Engine.
    So i am pondering: Does this refer to TS at all?
    Please check the following:
    Run you communication using a sole LV application in LV Developement System. This should be fast. Now build an executable of this application and run that one. Do you see the same behavior?
    If there is no difference in a sole LV approach, there have to be some settings in the TS approach making this slow. So please let us know:
    Are there different modules involved in that data transfer (which in fact points to the reply Christophe made)?
    What about loading/unloading options of the modules?
    How big is the hierarchy of the modules, e.g. is it necessary for the RTE to load stuff the Dev Env has already in memory due to loading a lvproj.......?
    Could you provide a simple example sequence+modules showing this behavior?
    What versions of LV and TS are you using?
    hope this helps,

  • How to measure time difference between zero crossing of a sine wave and rise time of a pulse on a same graph?

    I have a 50Hz sine wave and a pulse signal on a same graph. The phase difference between two is between 0-90 degrees.
    Now I need to calculate the time difference between (when the sine wave crosses zero volts) and (when the pulse rises). The frequency will stay approximately same for both signals.
    The application is for a three phase generator. In simple words, when the time difference between the zero-crossing of sine wave and the pulse rises increases, that means that the load on the generator has increases.
    I am a beginner user of LabView (version 9, 2009), maybe it is a very simple problem but I've been pulling my hair out for the last few days and coudln't figure anything out. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am using DAQ USB-6008 to measure these voltages and pulse from the generator and a sensor
    I have attached a jpg (a graph that i just made with excel to explain). The time 't' is what I am trying to measure
    Cheers

    Hi
    Thanks for the code but I'm afraid it won't work. Like you said the probability of choosing a value that is on both graphs may not happen. This is something that I would like the code to do automatically.
    But I did use the previous code posted and made some modifications to it and it seems to work perfectly. Now the next thing is to be able to get just that one value that tells you the first time difference.
    Here is what I get using that code.
    As you can see from the t Values. I only need the one that is highlighted. If there is a way to filter out the rest it would be great.
    I was thinking of a while loop and as soon as the value is higher than 3E-5 it would store the number and stop the loop, but I'm not too familiar with arrays in labview.
    Here is the the code modified.
    As you can see, it wasn't that big of a modification and it still is your code.
    I will keep trying.
    Thanks for the help

  • Image time display discrepancies between product

    The following is an example of a problem I've observed in many places in my photo collection.
    I have two files taken 8 seconds apart in April 2009 with a Nikon D70 shooting .jpg format.  The files were subsequently imported from the camera memory card using a card reader and Photoshop Elements.  PSE was also used to add tags to these files.
    Since then I've acquired Photoshop CS 5 Extended.  The other day I was looking at these files in both PSE and Bridge.  PSE shows the time of these two files to be the same (as it should), however, it adds an hour to the actual time the image was taken to adjust for the difference between the time set in the camera (it was Pacific Time) and the time zone where my computer is now located (Mountain Time).  When I look at the time on the images in Bridge, one of them shows the correct time in Pacific Daylight Time, but the other is showing the corresponding UTC time value, 7 hours later than the local time.  Looking at the file list in Window Explorer shows the "Date" and "Date taken" values to be the same as that shown by Bridge.
    There were two other images taken shortly before the first one mentioned above and they show the correct local time.  The two files that followed the UTC timed file also show a UTC time value.  Then following that the next file shows local time and then there are a number of files showing UTC for time.
    If I look at the two files with Windows Notepad so that I can see some of the text strings in the exif data portion of the file, the first file has a couple different places where time is shown in the format "...hh:mm:ss-07:00" and the other in the format "...hh:mm:ssZ".  The time value is preceded by the date in yyyy:mm:dd format. It would appear that Bridge is reading these values and displaying them, while PSE is getting some other time value from the file. Here is the actual string from the file that displays in UTC:
         exif:DateTimeOriginal="2009-04-05T17:08:10Z"   exif:DateTimeDigitized="2009-04-05T17:08:10Z"
    and for the file that displays time in local time the string is:
         exif:DateTimeOriginal="2009-04-05T10:08:02-07:00"   exif:DateTimeDigitized="2009-04-05T10:08:02-07:00"
    I've observed this same discrepany with files taken more recently with a Nikon D700 and images in NEF format.  I think I can reasonably eliminate the possibility that this is a camera caused discrepancy.  I suspect that some program is actually reading the local time and offset, then writing that back to the file as a UTC time value.  The behaviors of PSE and Bridge seem to point to the fact that the two programs are extracting time from different fields / strings in the file.  At this point the occurrance of the problem seems random, at least I've not been able to discern a pattern and reproduce it at will.
    Although this is not a catastrophic problem, it does cause confusion.  I've also looked at these files in Lightroom, which on initial inspection appears to get the same time values as Bridge.  The down side of this is that files in Lightroom are sorted into time order, which may not be the order they were taken.  Although I recognize that these products may not have been design for complete compatibility, it sure would be nice if they all treated time in the same way.

    I believe I now have more information about how PSE works and therefore need to slightly correct my original post.  It looks like PSE takes what ever time it finds for the photo's "time taken," converts it to UTC, then converts it to the local time on which PSE is running.  That will explain why two images taken seconds apart, with on having time coded as local time plus UTC offset and the other having an absolute UTC time, display the time taken in local time.  On the other hand, Bridge (and Lightroom) just displays what ever time it finds in the file.

  • Firefox crashes every time I open it and try to go between pages, I can not use firefox, help

    I converted my new computer from an old one about a week ago.
    Every time I open Firefox, it either crashes immediately or once I try to go between pages it crashes. I get a window that says Firefox quite Unexpectedly. Apple Care worked on this with me.
    We opened Firefox in Test Mode, the crashes did not happen.
    I would like to use Firefox, it is much better than Safari, but not being able to get help for Firefox; I have no choice.
    I don't know how to submit information to Mozilla, therefore I have no crash ID.

    With Test mode, do you mean starting Firefox in [[Safe mode]] ?
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

My modem is working correctly and I can still get on-line by going straight from my computer (MacBook Pro) to the Ethernet port. It must be the Time Capsule -- any ideas?

    Any ideas?
    Wireless Interference
    Might be caused by a cordless phone in the vicinity. To give you an example, my neighbor.....across the street...used to be able to literally crash my wireless network if he was in his front yard talking on his cordless phone.
    I discovered this by accident one day after spending weeks trying figure out why my network would crash at random times.
    Other possibilities include a wireless security/camera system near you
    Still other things might be an amateur ham radio operator....which should not interfere....but again from experience, I know that this can occur.
    Yet another possibility is another wireless network near you that is being turned on and off at random times. Some users power up their modem/router only when they want to do so and leave it off otherwise.
    Some general rules to help avoid interference:
    Move any cordless phones that you might have as far away as possible from the Time Capsule and/or your computer(s)
    Avoid placing other electronic devices....computer, television, amplifier, satellite receiver, etc. near the Time Capsule and/or your computer(s)
    Avoid metal surfaces near the Time Capsule and/or your computers
    Elevate the Time Capsule as much as possible. Think of it as a water sprinkler....you want to get the room as wet as possible
    Experiment with different wireless channels on the Time Capsule. To do this:
    Open AirPort Utility
    Click on the Time Capsule
    Click Edit
    Click the Wireless tab
    Click Wireless Options
    Start with Channel 11 on the 2.4 GHz band and work your way down
    It is unlikely that you are picking up interference on the 5 GHz band since there are.....for now at least.....far fewer networks using this frequency.

  • How do i plot with the operating system time in one plot and show lines between cursors in another using the same XY graph?

    I am having some trouble graphing two plots at once. One plot is to show the current temperature inside a chamber as a function of time. I am trying to pick the current time and temperature each second and plot it with each point being connected by a line. I am able to show a moving, blinking dot each second but I can't figure out how to develop an actual line with these dots. To make matters worse, the blinking dot is back in the year 1903. I understand that it uses seconds elapsed since 1903, and am trying to find out how to graph the current temperature with the system time.
    The second plot is just 5 moveable cursors that are to be connected by a line. I am able to move the cursors and retrieve the position information, but I can't make a line between them.
    I have attached my main .vi, though you may have to pick the graphing part off to have it work for you.

    You're not creating the XY graph data correctly. I've attached an example with a couple of simple XY Graphs. One is using a couple of shift registers to hold the spearate x and y arrays. I think this is what you were trying to do. The other one uses a VI from the shipping examples called XY Chart. It makes an XY Grpah act like a chart. I've also shown the correct way to display current time.Message Edited by Dennis Knutson on 05-12-2005 03:51 PM

  • How can I do to sinc my iPad 2 and iPhone 4s with Time Capsule? i need to transfered informatioon between bouth ip and time capsule.

    I have got and iPad 2 and iPhone 4s and I need to do a back up of docs, music and photos between Ipad and iphone an Time Capsule.

    You backup iOS devices to iTunes.. the iTunes then keeps the files and they are backed up via TM.
    To copy the files, you need to download a file app.. just look up file app, and that will allow you to copy files to and from the TC.. you cannot sync to the TC. There is no TM type app for iOS.. and in fact the file apps do not use AFP at all.

  • Sharing a Time Machine backup between two Macs

    Hi
    So I was running my music production software on a first gen Mac Mini.  I would store all of my project files on an external drive and backup that external drive to a second external drive using Time Machine.  I had Time Machine set so that it excluded everything on the Mac Mini except my original external drive.
    Now I've stepped up to the latest and the greatest Macbook Pro 15 inch.  I'm running the same music production software on it and loading up all my files from the same external drive.  When I go to back it up with Time Machine, it wants to start a separate backup for the Macbook Pro, even though it is only backing up the same stuff from the Mac Mini.  The thing is that there aren't any system specific files being backed up, just my project files.  For the life of me I can't get it to continue the original backup.  I plan on using both Macs for music production and plan on using the same drive for both.  I would like to back up every time I finish a session on either computer.
    Is there anyway I can get Time Machine on each computer just continue one backup??
    I know I can access the backup from each computer by "Browsing Other Time Machine Disks", but I want to backup, not restore.
    If not, is there any other software you can recommend?  Although I would hate to lose the backups that I already do have...
    Thanks!

    That's probably a good option for you. It's not easy to keep a 3 way sync.
    If you really want to keep certain files synced on your Mac Mini, you might want to look at ChronoSync. It appears it's a good backup-sync program. Don't know if will keep synced between the 2 computers and external drive without a little manuel effort, but would be easy to sync at least 2 devices, such as MacBook to Mac Mini, or MacBook to external.
    If you don't need to keep synced files, then best option is to do a full TM backup of both computers. Since you have 2 externals, use one for each. You can still use TM to access files if you need, and if you have a hard drive failure, it's an easy replace drive and restore the whole computer from TM.
    And don't overlook the option of File Sharing between the 2 computers to access each others files or a shared folder. That's a real easy way just to copy a few files when you need them.
    Anyway, Good Luck and Happy Holidays
