Time Delay Connector and Chart Question

Hello,
I have two problems with the VC 7.1
First, how can I design a time delay or a refresh function? In VC 7.0 you have the time delay connector to implement this function.
Second, in VC 7.0 I can click on a chart and start a action to show me the data of this data series. In VC 7.1 I don' t found something like that?
Regards Tobias Arnold

the output of the VISA read i got is call read buffer, but it still seems like a number instead of a string?

Time machine backup and restore question

Can time machine (which is on a case-sensitive formatted hard drive) which backs up a case sensitive partition, restore to a case insensitive partition?

IOS 8 Photo Time Delay - Photo Burst

I have uncovered a potential bug with the iOS 8 installation on my iPhone 5S.    When I use the Camera and select either the 3 second or 10 second time delay option, and then take a picture, it takes a 10-shot photo burst every time similar to if you hold the shutter button.   If I turn off the time delay, there is no problem and it only takes a single shot.    Anyone else able to confirm this is happening on their iPhone?

Thanks for confirming.   It must be with the 5S.    My daughter as a 5c and it is not doing it for her.    I sent in my feedback to apple.com/feedback.   We'll see how many other people discover this and hopefully they will speak out and hopefully it will be addressed in a future software release.
Yes, the burst mode with front camera was a new feature with iOS 8 and that works just fine when I hold down the shutter.   This is only an issue where it gives you burst mode without holding down the shutter when time delay is enabled.

Questions on graphs and charts.,,,

Hi ,
I have always been facing problem while working with graphs and charts. First of all let me be clear with the data these accept. further questions as under:
1. If I wire an array (1-dimention) to graph/chart , it plots it on Y axis. In this case, what are the values on x.axis?
2. If I want to acquire a voltage on Analog I/P channel for some specified time , say 2 sec., how to ensure that time span and data without missing anyone.
3. If I have to plot an I-V plot, how to make sure that V will come on Y-axis and I will come on X-axis.
Plz clear these doubts...
Regards

Hi,
1. Charts takes sigle point value like plotting DC voltages, Graph takes set of values like arrays (1D) which are plotted on Y-axis with respect to x axis which is integer number like 0,1,2..etc.. ,
XY graph takes bundled array of X-axis & Y axis.
2. Charts are used where a single point value is to be presented/updated w.r.t. to time or x scale (x scale can also act an index).
Also it supports update modes like sweep, scope & strip.
3. Graph are used to plot waveforms which does have no. of samples acquired from DAQ board or other source, which needs to be plot on Y-axis.
Main inputs of waveforms are starting time (t0), time stpes(dt) & Y elements.
4.X-Y graphs are used where you want to plot Y elements w.r.t. to the defined X eleme
nts. For e.g. I want to plot as
Y=10 when X = 0
Y=20 when X = 2
Y=30 when X = 3
etc.
Here we have one array of Y elements & other array of X elements. So bundle your X & Y array & fetch to XY graph to plot it.
Hope it clears you the concepts. Your feedbacks are welcome.

Chart question with, I'm sure, a simple answer (That I can't seem to figure out). Fixed 'time frame' on time axis.

Hello all.
I'm using charts to record data coming from vibration sensors on a bearing testing rig.
The problem I have (or rather the users have) is that the chart seems to only show a minute or so 'window' of data and it moves along through the day that way. Adding a scrollbar on the axis helps, but doesn't give a real 'picture' of a specified time range.
We'd like to have the time range of the chart be about 12 hours. Is there a simple way in properties that you can set the chart to show 'last X amount of time'? Or at least something greater than a minute!
Thanks for bearing with me. There seemed to be several posts sorta similar to this, but none really addressing the exact issue.
Still confused after 8 years.

Hi Ralph,
> I'm really, really confused.
Don't feel alone, this was not obvious to me either.
Here is an example in LV 8.5
You can set the log interval and the number of hours to be displayed.

Real-Time Sequencer Feedback and Questions

Post your questions and feedback to the Real-Time Sequencer Architecture and Real-Time Sequencer Architecture Example here.
Brian K.

I just purchased the USB 6341 DAQ card. I am using Dev1/.Port1 to control 4 driver transistors. The transistors fire 4 SSR. I am trying to create a sequence for the 4 transistors. Sometimes a test unit that is driven by a SSR will fail. So I have to change the sequence for the failed DUT.
Basically each SSR will be ON for 6 seconds. There will be a delay of about 5.75 seconds for the next valve to fire. The delay is used to balance the pressure testing. The second valve will need to start at 5.75 seconds later. Basically the two valves must cross at the 50 % turn OFF. How can I perform this task. There are at least 7 different test sequences??
Thanks,
Philip

Crosscorrelation time delay question

Hi!
I have a project, where i work with 2 microphones, and i want to calculate the time delay between the two signals. I had made a simple method for it, but it's a bit bad...
So now i try it with crosscorrelation, but i can't get a correct time-format...i had made the correlation correct, i have just some problem with the time format...
If i convert the time format into string with %<digit>, then i always becom 0...
Here is my vi, can somebody help me?

CrossCorrforum.vi ‏134 KB

I took a peek- your problem is with the format string on the timestamp to string functions. Your format strings are "%5u" and "%S" the %5u returns a string that represents 5 digits of fractional seconds, the %S converts only the whole number of seconds
FROM the help-
for format timestamp to string
..." Time
format codes include the following:
%a (abbreviated
weekday name),
%b (abbreviated month name),
%c (locale-specific date/time),
%d (day of month),
%H (hour,
24-hour clock),
%I (hour, 12-hour clock),
%m (month number),
%M
(minute),
%p (a.m./p.m. flag),
%S (second), %x
(locale-specific date),
%X (locale-specific time),
%y (year within century),
%Y (year including century),
%<digit>u (fractional seconds with <digit> precision).
So, How do you want to display the time information? If you want 1 January 1900 12:00:00.000AM to display as "1/1/1900 12:00:00.0am" your format string should be "%d/%m/%Y\s%I:%M:%S%1u\s%p" (ESCAPE CODES DISPLAYED)

Best way to capture data every 5 ms (milli-seconds) in the .vi diagram when using "Time between Points, and Small Loop Delay tools" ?

- Using LabView version 6.1, is there anyway to change the "Time Between Points" indicator of (HH.MM.SS) to only (mm.ss), or to perhaps only (.ss) ?
- Need to set the data sampling rate to capture every 5 milliseconds, but the defaults is always to 20 or greater; even when the "Small Loop Delay" variable is adjusted down.
Thank you in advance.

I have no idea what "Time between Points, and Small Loop Delay tools" is. If this is some code you downloaded, you should provide a linke to it. And, if you want to acquire analog data every 5 milliseconds from a DAQ board, that is possible with just about every DAQ board and is not related to the version of LabVIEW. You simply have to set the sample rate of the DAQ board to 200 samples/sec. If it's digital data, then there will be a problem getting consistent 5 msec data.

Urgent: Please help. how to solve the time delay during buffer read and write using vc++

I need to continuously acquire data from daqmx card, write into a file and at the same time corelate (in terms of time) the data with signals from other instruments. The current problem is that there is time delay during read and write data into buffer,thus causing misalignment of the data from multiple instruments. Is there a way to solve the delay? or Is there a way to mark the time of the data acquisition in the buffer? If I know the starting time (e.g. 0) of data acquisition and sampling rate (e.g. 1kHz), can I simply add 1ms to each data sample in the buffer? The current code is shown below.
void DataCollectionWin::ConnectDAQ()
DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxCreateTask ("", &taskHandle));
    DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxCreateAIVoltageChan(taskHandle,"Dev1/ai0,Dev1/ai1,Dev1/ai2,Dev1/ai3,Dev1/ai4,Dev1/ai5,Dev1/ai16,Dev1/ai17,Dev1/ai18,Dev1/ai19,Dev1/ai20,Dev1/ai21,Dev1/ai6,Dev1/ai7,Dev1/ai22","",DAQmx_Val_Cfg_Default,-10.0,10.0,DAQmx_Val_Volts,NULL));
  DAQmxErrChk(DAQmxCfgSampClkTiming(taskHandle,"",1000.0,DAQmx_Val_Rising,DAQmx_Val_ContSamps,60000));
  DAQmxErrChk (DAQmxRegisterEveryNSamplesEvent(taskHandle,DAQmx_Val_Acquired_Into_Buffer,50,0,EveryNCallback,NULL));// Every 50 samples the EveryNSamplesEvent will be trigured, to reduce time delay.
  DAQmxErrChk (DAQmxRegisterDoneEvent(taskHandle,0,DoneCallback,NULL));
  DAQmxErrChk (DAQmxStartTask(taskHandle));
int32 CVICALLBACK EveryNCallback(TaskHandle taskHandle, int32 everyNsamplesEventType, uInt32 nSamples, void *callbackData)
DAQmxErrChk (DAQmxReadAnalogF64(taskHandle,50,10.0,DAQmx_Val_GroupByScanNumber,data,50*15,&read,NULL));
   //memcpy(l_data,data,6000);
SetEvent(hEvent);
l_usstatus_e[0]=g_usstatus[0];// signals from other instruments that need to be corelated with the data from daq cards.
l_optstatus_e[0]=g_optstatus[0];
if( read>0 ) // write data into file
   //indicator=1;
for (i=0;i<read;i++)
{  //fprintf(datafile,"%d\t",i);
  fprintf(datafile,"%c\t",l_usstatus_s[0]);
  fprintf(datafile,"%c\t",l_usstatus_e[0]);
        fprintf(datafile,"%c\t",l_optstatus_s[0]);
  fprintf(datafile,"%c\t",l_optstatus_e[0]);
          fprintf(datafile,"%.2f\t",data[15*i]);
//   sprintf( pszTemp, "%f", data[6*i]);
// pListCtrl->SetItemText(0, 2, pszTemp);
    //pWnd->m_trackinglist.SetItemText(0, 2, pszTemp);
     fprintf(datafile,"%.2f\t",data[15*i+1]);
     fprintf(datafile,"%.2f\t",data[15*i+2]);

Hello kgy,
It is a bit of a judgment call. You should just choose the board that you think has the most to do with your issue. For example, this issue was much more focused on setting up your data acquisition task than the Measurement Studio environment/tools, so the MultifunctionDAQ board would have been the best place for it. As for moving your post to another board, I do not believe that is possible.

TS3297 I cannot purchase music currently as I am being asked to answer security questions due to it being " the first time have bought from this PC". This is not the case, I have not changed my PC. I have changed my passowrd and security questions but no

I cannot buy music currently as I am being asked to answer security questions due to it being supposedly "the first time I have bought form this PC". This is not the case. I have now changed my password and security questions, but it is asking me the same when I try to buy again.

First off, the name of your computer is only the way it is becuase the Apple user is the first one they created after repairing the Mac. Go into Sharing System Preferences and change the name to whatever you like.
Can you explain how you did this:
This didn't seem right so I went in to it and changed the computer so that it would recognise me as the Owner/Administrator.
You can delete the Apple user in Users & Groups System Prefs. Select that user and delete it. It will ask if you want to save the user data or delete it. If you archive it, you can always delete it later and it will be available if you need to recover that account for some reason--I doubt this will be necessary. After deleting the account, and when you feel you are still working normally, you could delete that archived user folder.
I have also never seen anything ask for that. It does sound like an Epson thing, but without having access to it, I couldn't tell you for sure.
Here's what I would try. Create a new User and give them admin rights. Log in as that user and see what happens with the installer. If it still complains, it is an Epson issue. My guess is it is looking for user id 501, the first user created. If it works, then something is indeed odd about your account. If so, use that new admin account to disable Admin privileges for your account, then re-enable it. This is done in the Users & Groups system prefs.

I had a similar problem when working on a long Pages doc (40,000 words).The glitch only occurred on this one Pages file and affected no other applications. I fixed it by duplicating the file, trashing the original and working on the new document. I have no idea of the cause of the problem.

Time Machine/Capsule -- 2.93GHzx -- and another question.

I upgraded my PowerBook G4 (1.67GHz and 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM) from Tiger to Leopard 10.5.6. I did so largely to get Time Machine. And then I ran into all sorts of woes doing my back-ups. So I took another step and replaced my external 2TB Lacie drive (that I was using for Time Machine) with a 500 GB Time Capsule. It arrived today and is right now in the middle of its first back-up. We shall see how well it fares with Time Machine. I am crossing my fingers. Does anyone see anything right or wrong I did in this exercise?
Meanwhile, I am going to take the plunge and buy a new MacBook Pro. I want to load it up. But I have a question: Is the 2.93GHz Intel Core 2 Duo THAT MUCH better than the 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo? It costs $300 more and I’m wondering if 0.27GHz makes such a significant ($300) difference — bearing in mind that I will be running Final Cut Pro, etc, and want the best I can get in strength and speed. But I don't want to blow $300 for window dressing that does not deliver. Bottom line: is an extra 0.27 GHz that significant or that much of a game changer?
And one more question: Is it OK to use your Mac and its other apps while Time Machine is running? Or does that cause a problem?
Of course, I’m not asking you all to write a thesis paper on all this but your quick opinion would be gratefully appreciated.
Thank you -- and thank heavens for this discussion groups.
Happy Easter and other holidays,

Depends on what sort of problems you had with the LaCie. If the problem wasn't with the drive itself, you may not have gained much, if anything. TC's are more convenient in some ways, but also much slower.
And since you can't partition a TC disk, I'd advise against putting any other data there: if you ever want or have to erase all your TM backups and start over, you'll have to copy that other data somewhere temporarily.
And one more question: Is it OK to use your Mac and its other apps while Time Machine is running? Or does that cause a problem?
It's fine. You may have slower response time, especially using the internet while doing a wireless backup, but TM won't crash or fail to back up.

Contradiction between time delay and fetch bmp file

Hi All,
I need to fetch BMP file by confirm.vi(pic2), but when I run the program, the BMP file won't come out correctly. the last picture always come out. (for example, the first time picture A come out, but when picture B should come out, it still show Picture A.)
the correct picture will come out correctly when i put time delay 100ms in the loop. but it will cost lost of time,two arraies have 300 elements and 20 elements separately. how can I make it faster to fetch the correct picture? thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

So you are using a file in order to pass data between loops? That a major race condition. Try using a User Event, Queue, or Notifier to send the picture to your other loop.
There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions
