USB 8451 - SMbus with labview: help please

Dear all,
I just purchased an USB 8451 and I need to interact with a smart battery using a labview interface. I really need a departure point to build up a VI read/write and finally interact with the battery, and the tutorial on NI website ( http://www.ni.com/white-paper/5767/en/) seems not too exhaustive to me. I set the I2c configuration property node as specified, but I have some doubts on the adress to put, is it really 1010000 for the smart battery (it is my only slave)... Once this is solved, how to "ask questions" to the battery?
Could anyone who had the same problem than me post a complete VI I can use as starting point?
It seems like I must gather much more information about this topic, so, please, any suggestion on how to interact with the battery is welcome....

Yep, the problem is definitively the adress of the slave (smart battery), which I set to 1010000 as specified in the NI tutorial, but that is not correct, because this is the error message I get when trying to read two bytes:
Possible reason(s):
NI-845x: The slave did not acknowledge an address+direction byte transmitted by the I2C master. If you are using ACK polling, consider increasing the timeout. Other reasons include the incorrect address set in the I2C configuration or the incorrect use of the 7-bit address. When entering an address to access a 7-bit device, do not include the direction bit. The NI-845x Basic I2C API internally sets the direction bit to the correct value, depending on the function (write or read). If your datasheet specifies the 7-bit device address as a byte, discard the direction bit (bit 0) and right-shift the byte value by one to create the 7-bit address.
I also attach my VI

The Call Library Function Node will allow you to call a DLL. To do so, you need the documentation on the DLL. This documentation would list the functions as well as the arguments for those functions (i.e., inputs and outputs). There does not seem to be any documentation in what you uploaded. Actually, I have no idea what you uploaded, aside from the fact that one of those files was the actual DLL.

Integrating an NI-USB 8451 driver and Labview Run-Time Files in an installation package of a .vi application

Hello,
I've built a .vi which uses the NI-USB 8451 device (please see http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/202368), and I would like to create an installation package to be used on a costumer's PC, which has no Labview installed on or a driver for this device.
I would like to have this installation as a completely stand-alone setup, so that the user could take this file and run it, and have the driver to the 8451, the run-time files for the Labview application installed by themselves, and have the .exe file working on a completely "clean" PC.
How can I integrate it all in one package ?
Thanks,
Michael.

Nice hearing from you again, Ipshita
I do not call any dll's currently, but am using the driver of the USB device, NI-USB 845x, version 1.0.1
Now, I would very like to make the use of my application, by another user, with no Labview or this driver on his PC, as simple as possible.
I just thought that maybe I could create an .EXE file with some Labview created dll's, which this executable would use, and spare the need of the 845x Driver or Labview Run-Time library prior installation. I could be wrong.
What should I do ?
P.S.
Meanwhile, I've been playing with the Application Builder and tried to create an installation with the Driver and the Labview Run-Time.
It had started the compile, but stopped with the following pop-up window: "Locate the 'NI-845x Software 1.0.1' distribution. Labview needs to copy a component installed or updated by the distribution..."
(Attaching the pop-up window below)
What is it looking for and where can I find it ?
Thanks,
Michael.

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

I used to have a Nokia E55- my hotmail was working properly, and when ever i receive an email, it synchronize it directly to my mobile phone. but when i changed my mobile model to Nokia E 72, it could not work at all!!! even my gmail too.
the steps are as follows:
1-enter Email application.
2-create a new mailbox
3-start (preparing for setup)
4- i choose whether Windows live hotmail or Gmail
5-i place my email and password.

I don't have a Hotmail account and don't need a Hotmail mailbox on my Nokia Messaging.
However, when I installed the Windows Live Messenger app from Ovi Store, it automatically created a Hotmail mailbox in my Nokia Email. Since i was trying out the Windows Live Messenger only, I removed it after I tried it out. Right now, there's a nonfunctioning Hotmail mailbox still in my Nokia Email that I couldn't delete nor access... Still finding a solution on how to totally completely remove it (since the Hotmail mailbox doesn't appear in the settings portion of Nokia Email/Messaging unlike the Yahoo or Gmail mailboxes which I've defined and created on my E72)
Your device has to be online with the NM server to delete the mailbox.
How do I go online with the NM server?
I only use my home wifi to connect to the Internet and update my emails on the E72.
Also, the Hotmail mailbox exists only in the Home->Messaging menu but not in the Home->Email menu. From what I know, there's a Connect menu option in the Home->Email menu, but there's no "Hotmail" mailbox on my Email menu.

i can not figure it out what is the problem what just happen to my mac
it wont run osx but can run windows
please need a big help here

Install and setup are the same thing. What I'm asking is Windows 8 installed on the whole drive or only on a small partition with Boot Camp.
Boot Camp is a Mac program that enables you to install Windows on your Intel-based Mac computer, using a
Microsoft Windows install disc that you provide. Windows is installed on its own
partition. After installation, you can use either Windows or Mac OS X on your Mac
computer.
The Boot Camp Assistant application helps you create the Windows partition and
restart your Mac using your Windows installation disc. Then you can follow these
instructions to install Windows and install software drivers that enable Windows to
work with your Mac hardware

Has anyone used an USB ASIO driver with LabVIEW ?

Anyone has already tried to use LabVIEW to get data from USB audio recording equipment (M-Audio Quattro)?
RKO

Hi,
NI-VISA 3.0 is the only driver in LabVIEW that would give you access to an USB device. You would probably use NI-VISA USB Raw mode.
To use the VISA driver you need to know in detail how the device works and how to program with USB. There isn't too much documentation, but if you are clear on those two things it should be easier to get familiar with the NI-VISA API.
You'll need the USB specification (www.usb.org). Also check the NI-VISA Programmer Reference Manual
Hope this is what you are looking for.

WAD - adding menu entries with JavaScript - help please!

Hiya,
I am completely new to JavaScript and I need some help with adding menu entries into my WAD template. Can anyone please help?
I want to add functionality into my WAD template to enable users adding results rows on a selected characteristic, at a single mouse click. Currently they need to go to the menu -> properties -> characteristic -> display results -> always -> ok. That's five clicks of a mouse (provided they know were to go).
I want to add this option to the basic menu so that they can click once only.
What I have managed to figure out so far using SAP help is the following. I have added a Script Item into my WAD Layout and added the following line of code in the Script Editing window:
sapbi_addToMenu("Add totals", "alternate_context_menu", "X","CHARACTERISTIC", "", "bottom", "", "")
It worked fine in that it added an extra item "Add totals" to my menu when I righclick on a characteristic. So far so good. However, I have no idea what function I should be using here, or how to code it. Surely WAD uses some function to perform this action, something that I could reuse? Is there a library somewhere of all the function used in WAD?
Can anyone please help with the code?
Many thanks,
Agata

Hiya again,
I have managed to partially solve this problem by using the following code. However it requires me to define on which characteristic the function is performed. In this case I have managed to get it working on 0PROJECT, but I want it to be ANY characteristic which has been right clicked?
Any ideas how I can pass the characteristic name as a VARIABLE, whose value would be read automatically when menu is triggered?

Saving disk space with aperture, help please?

Ok, let me start by saying I am using a Macbook Pro 17inch model, with a 120gb HD. I just recently switched this summer to Mac over from PC. Now iPhoto has not been very satisfying to me, so that prompted me to buy Aperture. When I used my PC, which I still use now since it is a powerful desktop that I customized and has all my main hard drives hooked up to, I was used to using Google's Picasa software for organizing and searching my photo database. Picasa was very good for me, and I really wish that they had a Mac version of it, but since they don't, I need something to fill that need on my Macbook Pro. As I wrote before, iPhoto does not exactly satisfy me, so I would prefer to find an alternative to it. I am hoping that Aperture can do this, but I am having trouble so far.
Now I only need Aperture for its organizing and database qualities, which I am very impressed by. I do not plan to use it at all for image editing, I leave that to PS, and I don't particularly like the way it creates so many files for each photo and such. My main problem that I am coming across is that when I import my entire photo library (which I have already organized into a very convinient folder heirarchy) into Aperture, it literally doubles the size of my photo library by creating the huge Aperture Library file, and all of the project files within that file. Now I wouldn't mind this too much if it was on my desktop where I have plenty of hard drives to absorb these huge files created, but my desktop is PC for now and can't use Aperture, I plan to get the new Mac Pro next year when my budget can allow for it, but even still, I am not happy with the idea of creating a huge Aperture Library file that essentially doubles the size of my entire photo archive.
Now I noticed this huge file is due to the huge Project files created within the Aperture Library file. Unfortunately, to my knowledge and my trial and error this far, it is impossible to import photos into Aperture without importing them as projects. Am I correct in noting that I can not simply use Aperture for just its organization or database tools? I was really looking forward to getting aperture, but I can not afford to double the size of my entire photo archive on my laptops hard drive, because it is only 120gb and will not be able to sustain a growing photo library like this, especially if it grows at double the size for every photo imported.
Now I do own plenty of external hard drives, and am aware that I can direct Aperture to create its library file on an external hard drive, but it is not too convinient to have to have an external hard drive connected to my laptop every time I want to use Aperture, and not very cost-efficient to have to dedicate a whole external HD just for Aperture's library file, plus I have doubts to how fast the program would run if it is running my library off of an external hard drive.
So in the end, do I need to find another piece of software from an outside company to suit my needs for an image database program? Is it possible to import all my photos into aperture without creating any project files? Please anyone with suggestions for what could help me, please do respond, and thank you in advance for any help.

Thanks for such a quick reply. What you wrote is helpful, and I did consider that at one point... but to go that route would require me to commit completely to using Aperture only for accessing my photos, and would never be able to use other programs to access my photos, I would have to do it all through Aperture, which is not all that bad, but I would like the freedom to access my photos from any program, or from simple folder view. I do see that in the long run it will help conserve HD space, but I really don't like having to commit completely to using only Aperture.
Is it really too much to ask for to have Aperture support maintaining my files in their original location while referencing them in its own library? I don't think that's too much to ask for, every other photo management software is capable of doing this, and at great speeds as well. Even iphoto doesn't create copies of every single item, Google's Picasa on the PC side is EXTREMELY fast and does exactly what I need it to do... I only hope that someone from Apple understands the needs of people like me, as I'm sure I'm not the only one out here who wishes Aperture could work the way I am describing, and hopefully Apple can do something to appeal to this group of people like myself.

FTP problems with CS5 - Help please

I volunteer helping charity and education organisations with their websites. One of my clients has just bought CS5 - I personally am still working on CS3 - so when I went to help them download their site first of all the set-up was quite different (why do companies fix things that aren't broken), but I got over that issue and managed to connect to the site, download and make a couple of changes. All was well!
Two days later I went back, because they were having problems and I couldn't connect to the server.... Well, when I was on the main Dreamweaver screen the computer said it was connecting and made all the right moves uploading files etc, but nothing on the website changed, so goodness knows where the files were going. When I went onto the screen showing local and remote files, on the server side there was just a message saying you can't upload unless you set up a control version and the little blue plug was just greyed out.
I don't want or need to set up a control version as it is just one person dealing with this site from one computer.
As this is the first time I have come across 'subversion' or SVN I am a little confused. I have sent an email to the hosting company to make sure it is not a problem with their server, but won't get a reply until Monday so I thought that over the week-end I would just ask all you out there....
Help!!

DW is more than capable of managing your FTP tasks on its own. Please tell us - when you connect to the remote site and then LOOK at the Remote side of the Files panel, what FOLDER names do you see? As an ancillary question, what do you have in the Root Directory field of the Remote site definition?
