Two output tasks on one device

I would like to learn the best way to configure two output tasks on one device. Both tasks employ the same channels. Task 1 outputs a 2D array (raster pattern on some channels and DC on others) for which the array values and array timing may change during the rastering. Task 2 outputs only DC values in a 1D array: one value for each channel. There is a Boolean that turns the rastering on and off.
    Should I have two separate tasks or one task where the DAQmx Timing and DAQmx Write change according to the raster on/off switch? Do the tasks need to Start each time an array value is changed? I've come close to making it work both ways and the major problem seems to be a "resources are unavailable" error when I want to stop everything and send 0 to all the outputs.
Thanks, Peg

Dear Paul,
    Thanks for your response. I have managed to produce a vi that seems to work with just one task. When changing back and forth from rastering to non-rastering, the task is stopped and started, but never cleared until the vi ends. What I don't understand is why new values are output even though I don't call Start Task each time a value is changed. I'm happy it works but I'm nervous that I don't know why. I have attached it in case you (or anyone) has the patience to take a look.
Thanks,
Peg

    Can I have two iCloud accounts on one IPad?

    Yes, you can add a second ("secondary") iCloud to a device as mendi1 stated.  There are some limitations with secondary iCloud accounts.  Only the primary account can be used for Photo Stream, syncing Bookmarks and Documents, iCloud Backup and Find My iDevice.  Also push email only works in the primary account; only fetch mail is supported in a secondary account.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4020.

    Neither of those Apps allow you to (easily) add iWork documents created or edited on the device to your online storage, you need to be using a webDAV server to be able to do that. In fact pretty much all you can add from the iOS device is photos and video without resorting to convoluted workarounds, intermediate apps or emailing finished documents to yourself. You can on the other hand view most of the content of dropbox/sugarsync through those apps, which in a lot of circumstances is useful, but without it working in both directions these apps are far from an ideal solution.
    E.g from the sugarsync website
    Yes, this may not be of too much interest to the OP, I was only trying to clarify the situation with iCloud.com/iWork for you.
    However that being said, there may be areas of interest for Computer to Computer syncing, given the recent changes made to iCloud.com/iWork. I wouldn't suggest iCloud sharing for archived documents, but for perhaps up to a couple of dozen documents in progress, iCloud sharing is now quite viable. If there is any chance at all of these documents being accessed on an iOS device then iCloud would become a preferred option to dropbox or sugarsync.

  • Can we create two "TS17900100" tasks in one WF to update IT with Wait time

    Hello Folks ,
                  I have scenario in which I have to update two infotypes but with some wait time .  I have created to form scenarios and attached those scenarios in my WF  binding one by one .
    I have two WF TS17900100 task * first one has scenario update_1  and has wait time and also has approval in between .
    For my other WF TS17900100 task  , I have scenario update_2  as well as approval .
    What is the issue .
    It is update Infotype but creating 2 records because of the reason I am executing u201CTS17900100u201D task twice. But my question is it has the different form scenario inside  with different set of fields which I selected back in u201CDesign time u201C .
    Any idea how to get  rid of double entries .  Note: per my requirement I need a wait time in between  process .
    Thanks.

  • Is it possible to make two different backups for one device?

    So, here is the problem: i got an 8 gig 4, and since for now i didn't have enough money to buy, which i would like to have, a 64 5. I found out recently that social medias are wasting my memory, which also a problem that we can't delete caches. I'm just curious that if we can do more than one backup files from one device?

    You can back up to both iTunes and iCloud. The following link has a section on using the two methods together. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5262
    Also, the following link gives the location of the iTunes backup and suggests including that in your regular computer backup -- which would effectively give you multiple backups via iTunes. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4946

  • Joining two output tables in ONE table

    Hi All,
    I have 1 read query and 1 bapi... I need to show the output of these two into a table.
    EXAMPLE:
    Query returns 2 columns FIRST NAME and ID NUMBER.
    Bapi returns   2 columns LAST NAME  and ID NUMBER.
    now table should show 3 columns like FIRST NAME.....LAST NAME...... ID NUMBER.
    FIRST NAME is from Query....LAST NAME is from bapi.... where ID NUMBER is same.
    Fname 1(from Query)           Lname 1 (from Bapi)               id 1(matching in both Query and Bapi)
    Fname 2(from Query)           Lname 2 (from Bapi)               id 2(matching in both Query and Bapi)
    In other words.... when ID NUMBER is same in query and bapi those record should come in single line.
    Thanks,
    PradeeP
    Note: Right now I am using UNION operator which is showing both the results line by line....
    USING UNION OPERATOR, RESULT IS.....
    Fname1                                           id 1
    Fname 2                                          id 2

    I am thinking it is not possible after reading below threads.... please share your thoughts.....
    Merging Two Tables from BAPI into single VC Table
    union info from two datasources

    Hi,
    VC doesn't have a join operator, so it can't be done just with VC.
    Instead, you should create a service that receives the 2 tables and performs the join, and consume the service in VC.

  • Can you put apps from two iTunes accounts on one device?

    I just got an iPhone from work. I would like to put some apps I got for my personal iPod on it, but I also plan to purchase some work-related apps using a work-account (charged to the company card). Is this possible? From what I understand it would be possible to put apps I purchased for the iPod onto the iPhone, but I can't find if I can then use a new account to purchase more apps for the iPhone.
    Can someone let me know if this would work? Otherwise I'll just buy the apps using my personal account and get reimbursed (not as neat, but I can't use the work account for personal apps!)

    Yes, you can do that.
    You just have to remember from which accounts you bought which Apps when updating them, as you won't be able to update an App bought in one iTunes Account from another iTunes Account.
    As far as purchasing new Apps goes - just log-in to the required iTunes Account on the computer you sync your phone to (which should only be one computer), purchase the Apps then sync them to the phone. If you want to purchase Apps from the other iTunes Account, log-out in iTunes then log in with the other iTunes account.
    It might just be easier to purchase everything through the one personal account though...

  • Multiple apple IDs on one device

    Can i use more than one apple id on one device, though not simultaneously. I have an office apple id which has my corporate card linked, and a personal id with my personal card linked. can these two be used on one device of course one at a time.
    thank you for help with this information.

    Note though, that as far as the iTunes or App store is concerned, you can only change the AppleID once every 90 days, see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627

  • How to control two different processes with one DAQ output board

    Hi! I posted this in the Signal Generators forum, but I'm reposting here in case someone on this board has suggestions for a way to get around my problem programmatically (ie. within LabVIEW). Thank you for any help you can provide.
    Patrick
    I have a PXI-6722 8-channel, 13-bit analog output board, and with this I want to independently control both the temperature (thermometer excitation/heater control) and magnetic field in my experiment. Unfortunately, it appears that I cannot do both simultaneously, which is totally unacceptable for my application.
    Currently I'm using separate VI's for field and temperature control. This is the start of the problem, because in DAQmx you can't have 2 output tasks on the same card at the same time. In order to remedy this situation, I used MAX to create a global task containing all 8 13-bit analog outputs. However, it now appears that each time I do a write operation on this task (from whichever VI) I must write to all of the task channels, rather than just the channels I want to change. This would be fine for the temperature controls as they are of the type "set an output voltage value and hold it until told differently," so I could re-write the currently held values for channels that are not being changed. Magnetic field control will not work in this way, because we need to do very smooth field sweeps which require an analog waveform to be sent and sampled at a high rate (so that the steps are as small as possible). So if, for example, a thermometer's excitation voltage or a heater's power need to be changed during a field sweep (as is often necessary to maintain a constant temperature, via PID), then the sweep will be disrupted, potentially causing a dangerous magnet quench.
    Does anyone have any ideas on how I could make this work? It seems very wasteful to buy a second output board when I still have lots of free channels on the first.
    Thanks,
    Patrick

    I'd probably create a third process that just updates all output values on the card whenever necessary.
    One way is to send messages via queues from the temperature and magnetic field control routines to the third process. The third process doesn't do anything unless it gets a message from one of the two other processes. The message should contain the channel task ID to change along with the new value. Use the LabVIEW queue VI's, using a type definition to specify the message type either when you create the queue or use the variant VI's. Once it gets a message, it updates the changed channels, not modifying the others (use a shift register to store an array with the current set of output values).
    Hope this helps.

  • Crackling with two output devices (Bluetooth/Minijack)

    I am trying to connect my beats wireless via bluetooth, and using my regular headset at the same time. When i select two output devices on the aggregate device tab, i get crackling in either one of them depending on which i select first. Does this have something to do with the clock, and the unsynchronized audio via bluetooth and regular minijack? How do i stop the crackling?

    update: I was fortunate and got response from HP support in less then an hour.  I provided detailed diagnostic information.  HP asked me to upgrade the bios and chipset drivers, and said that if it didn't work, then I probably was having some problem with the firewire port, and that I could mail it back to them for repairs because it is still under warranty.  I should be receiving a shipping box  in 2 days.  I'll try and report back in 10 days to let you know how they did.

    We have itunes music on a computer, an ipod nano, and a new ipod touch under two different accounts. How can we combine the music from both accounts to one device?

    There is no "adding" a device.  Simply plug the iDevice into the computer.  iTunes should automatically detect the device when it is connected.
    iTunes can sync/manage as many iDevices as you want... there is no 1 device limit.

  • I have one blackberry id and two blackberry's but can only receive e-mails on one device!

    Hi all,
    I have a problem! I have one blackberry id and two blackberry. I have given my old blackberry to my wife.
    I have just setup my new phone but whilst setting up my e-mails on my new phone we have noticed that the e-mails have been transferred to my new phone but have stopped working on my old phone.
    The odd thing is my wife had a previous blackberry and we were able to both get the company e-mails on each phone.
    The message that appears when e-mails have been transferred to the new phone is there is another device registered to this blackberry id and only one device can receive e-mail.
    How can I unregistered my old phone from the blackberry id and re-register it under my wife's details and hopefully receive the e-mails on both phones?
    Please help as its vital for the business.
    Cheers Nick

    Hi woodbe and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    The BlackBerry ID is only designed to work on one device at a time. Your wife can sign up for a new BlackBerry ID by going to www.blackberry.com/blackberryid.  Also, to receive email on her device, she will have to have a BlackBerry data plan configured with your wireless network provider as well.
    To change the BlackBerry ID on her device, you can back it up using the BlackBerry Desktop Software, then perform a security wipe from Options>Security.  Upon the reboot, sign in with the new BlackBerry ID, then you can restore the data using the BlackBerry Desktop Software again.
    Thanks.

    Can I use two Apple ID account in one device. Are there irregularities

    You can use one ID for iTunes/iTunes Match, and another for iCloud, without any problems. You can add a secondary iCloud account in System Preferences (or Settings)>Mail, contacts and Calendars. Its data will appear alongside the main iCloud account though you cannot use PhotoStream with it.
