Wait for move complete not waiting for timeout

Hi,
I am running a small rotary stage with a 7358 motion controller. Occasionally when I command a new position, the "wait for move complete" seems to get triggered almost immediately even though the move is not complete. Since I have put in a "halt" downstream of this to cover the case where the move times out, the move stops immediately. The problems seems interrmittent but I haven't discovered a pattern yet except that is happens for more often when making a reverse move, i.e. I go to 1000 counts as a forward move and then back to 800 as a reverse.
Has anyone seen something similar?
Thanks,
Dave

oops syntax error! I put waitComplete, but it's supposed to be moveComplete as the last argument for flex_wait_for_move_complete. Just want to let you guys know that. Thanks!

  • Flex wait for move complete

    Hi,
    I am currently programming a 7344 motion control board in Visual C++.
    Right now I am using the function flex_wait_for_move_complete function but it causes an exception error when passing the pointer, moveComplete, into the function ( it is the last argument).
    According to the prototype, u16* waitComplete is a returned pointer the function returns. 1 if move is complete, 0 if move is not. Maybe I am referencing it and using it the wrong way.
    In my function
    void moveSingleAxis(..)
    u16* moveComplete = (u16*)1;
    //some code
    status = flex_wait_for_move_complete(boardid, NIMC_AXIS1, NIMC_AXIS_CTRL, 10000, 20, waitComplete);
    //status is used for error checking, but irrelevant to my problem
    If I make the pointer to 0  or NULL, flex will error and say pass in null pointer . If I make the pointer to any other number it causes null reference exception error. Any help? thanks!

  • THE VOLUME FOR "MOVIES" CAN NOT BE FOUND

    Not sure if I posted this in the right place. I would appreciate anyone that can help.
    I installed iLife 08 yesterday and everything seemed to go fine.
    When I go to open my MOVIES folder I keep getting a : "THE VOLUME FOR "MOVIES" CAN NOT BE FOUND" message?
    What happened??
    More importantly....
    On the left hand of my Finder window where it lists DEVICES, PLACES, and SEARCH FOR.... if I click on SEARCH FOR and go to ALL MOVIES....
    I was relieved to find all of my movie files still in there.
    BUT HERE'S THE PROBLEM:
    I was watching some of the movies... and I noticed as soon as I clicked off and started viewing a new movie... the previous movie would disappear from the ALL MOVIES FOLDER... and the number tally would decrease.
    I finally realized after 10 movies that files were disappearing... or perhaps being deleted.
    I used FIND to try to locate the lost files but no such luck. I can't find them anywhere.
    It also appears to be only my WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER FILES that are disappearing.
    What happened to my MOVIES folder? and where are these lost files going? Are they being deleted? UGH UGH UGH!
    If anyone can help I'd greatly appreciate. I'm very frazzled.

  • I downloaded some movies and the I-Tunes extra for the movies will not download

    I downloaded three movies on ITUNES and the ITUNES Extra for them specific movies will not download. I have the latst update version of ITUNES installed. I've hit the download button and it states "ITUNES extra has errors   please try again".
    Can anybody assist!

    Ok, so after like 4 days of going through all these different issues, I figured out that several programs weren't downloading, and it was an issue with my wireless connectivity messing up the digital signatures, so if you plug in your comp to the modem and delete your temp files, it should start to work!

    Trash your preferences. Trash your project render files. Switch off background rendering. Export without using the computer for anything else.
    Oh, and if you're using 10.9 switch off App Nap.

  • Error in BP transfer No contract account for premise- move out not possible

    Hi experts,
    I am trying to transfer a BP from its current premise to another premise in the Web IC screen. While doing so i am facing the error saying that " No contract account for premise->move out not possible". I checked the contract account for the premise through normal premise search and it is existing.
    I am facing this problem only when i am trying to transfer the BP which has multiple premise, for BPs having single premise it is working fine.
    Request you to help me in this regard.
    Thanks and regards,
    Madhukar.

    Hi,
    For all people struggling with connecting their iPad to their router, constantly getting 'Incorrect Password' even though you have entered the correct one - this may be your solution as it just resolved my issue.
    In your router settings online (usually found at 198.168.1.1) change your security from WPA2 or WEP to WPA.  For my iPad it for some reason only accepts WPA but now it is running without problems.  Let me know if this helps.
    Cheers.

    2 Some movies may not be available from iTunes in the Cloud. These movies, if purchased in HD, will download both the HD and SD versions for you to sync to your compatible iPod and iOS devices. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.

    Do you have a question ? Not all content is available for re-downloading e.g. if the content provider (or Apple) removes them from the store, and there are also some film studios (in countries where film re-downlaoding is possible) who haven't agreed to allow their films to be re-downloaded.
    Otherwise, re-downloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

  • Old .mov files not viewable in qt for 10.4.3

    i have several quicktime (.mov) files from a digital camera that work fine in 10.3.9 with qt 7.0.1. i recently bought a new powerbook and the video portion of the movies is not displayed (audio is ok). any ideas?...

    worked perfectly, thanks! (when i checked my old pb's scavenged hd the quicktime folder had several codecs not found in the new one-must have been installed with various hardware drivers, i guess.)
    thanks!

  • Blend complete rather than Move complete?

    After I issue an absolute move on a closed loop stepper axis with PCI-7344 using flex_Start, the Move Complete bit never gets set, but the Blend complete bit does. Since, I'm waiting in a loop for the Move Complete bit, the program (VB 6.0) hangs. Why would the Blend Complete bit get set rather than the Move Complete bit?

    You might want to check first that you have the latest NI-Motion 5.2 driver. Then, check your Move Complete Criteria because it might have all the conditions disabled hence never gets a flag. Blend Complete checks also for a Motor Stop and Profile Complete bits to be set and then it sets itself. Anyways, focus on why the Move Complete Criteria does not flags, the NI-Motion Software Reference Manual will show which function to use to set it up and the bitmap order. If you need further assistance on this issue I would recommend you to contact NI Support, www.ni.com/ask.

  • Rented movie does not play after download if not connected to the internet

    rented movie does not play after download if not connected to the internet

    Hello b noir.
    Thank you for your interest in solving my problem.
    What I did I opened iTune. I read the information about what does my computener need to play back a rented movie. My computer is okay to play back rental movies. So I went to the iTunes store, I searched for the movie I want to watch, i singned in into my Mac account and I bought the movie. The movie started to download to my computer, it took some time because I bought a HD version, but it never stop and after a couple of hours or little less the movie was in the Rented folder of my iTunes and also I checked to be sure that was in the movie folder. So, next day I open iTunes and click on the movie, it opens but I wait for five minuetes and never started to play back, so I tried several time and I looked for info in different internet forums but I couldn't find anything that help. So I posted the problem in this forum and also I called Apple. Apple contacted me and they let me to download the movie again. So I did it and now I will watch the movie later. Not sure if the movie will play back normally or if I am going to have the same problem. I'll keep you posted.
    Apple representative did not know why this happened.
    Thanks.

  • Bluetooth completely not working on Yosemite

    Hi,
    I did a clean install of Yosemite on my MacBook Pro (Mid 2012). Before that I had an upgraded (from Mavericks) version of Yosemite and everything worked well.
    Now bluetooth is completely not working - it doesn't see any devices. I tried reseting PRAM and SMC but it didn't help. Have you got any clues?

    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
