What may cause jitter in a graph?

A simple VI to convert a string into a dot matrix text display (XY graph) worked fine initially.  After seemingly minor cleanup in the block diagram, the text jitters back and forth during updates (see attached vi).  A subtle error is suspected. Help would be appreciated.

Ah, the free property to reference bug ... oh well.
Just adding a loop and a small wait seems to calm things down, i tried with 100ms, and didn't see any jitter then, but it could feel slightly sluggish if you're writing fast. At 33 (30 fps) or 40 (25 fps) it jittered some, at 50 (20 fps) it was rare for me.
Some testing shows it's the XY graph resizing that's the issue, if you set it to a fixed size you wont get an issue. If you dont change the minimum scale it wont be much issue. Look at this slight modification, instead of using negative coordinates i subtract the minimum, normalizing it to 0+ so i dont have to change the minimum scale. I haven't seen a single glitch this way.

    There is very few documentation about this error, even on metalink.
    Do you know what may cause this ?
    if found this possibility after google-ing a litte bit :
    The DBWR process will fail if it can not access the disk, even for a short period of time.
    This might be due to hardware problems ? But I have several instances on this machine, and only this one crashed.
    Any idea ?
    Thanks for your help

    You may need to upgrade your 9.2.0.6 database to 9.2.0.8.
    Is it possible your OS does not have the required patches?This is still 9.2.0.4. I can apply this patch, but that doesn't give me any explanation.
    Is there a bug related to ORA-00471 fixed in this patch ?
    How much memory / swap space is available?
    Has an Oracle database ever run on this machine?There are several instances on this machine running for months, and I've nerver seen this error before. Memory and disk are OK.

  • What may cause Errors.log to be generated from Essentials configuration wizard?

    I customized install.wim to handle specific drivers, and while the OS installs properly... during the Essentials Configuration Wizard, the process nearly immediately stops at 0% and generates this file "Errors.log" with the contents:
    FATAL: SetFolderPermission:
    Is it just a corrupted install.wim, that just so happens to prevent the wizard from working... or did I accidently change permissions on something that would lead to this type of error?

    Well you finally lost me :) Any data partitions are pretty much irrelevant until after Essentials is done installing
    Essentials does not get it "installed", Windows gets Installed, and then Essentials "Configures".  As I said part of this configure is to decide where the largest data partition is.  The team does not do tons of what if's in
    the Dev cycle. I have no clue what that code/logic actually is, but I am certain it went no deeper than a normal standard Server install.  They did not test different allocation units, smaller than standard "hidden partitions with drive letters.
    This said, I was able to complete the Essentials configuration using my unattend.xml with 100, 350, and 328.  I used diskpart to assign letters to the 100 and 350, and formatted a 70 gb "data" partition with the 64k and gave it B: But I am
    confused as after Essentials config finished the 100 and 350 did not have drive letters?  Also when I assign the letters it was not reflected in diskmgmt.msc.  Right click still only showed Help.  But File Explorer did.
    So my ask would be that you edit your winpe to,  100, 350, and 328, and format the system drive with 4k and see if that works for you. Then we/you could change things one at a time to see what breaks it.
    All this said, even if we can figure out what breaks it and I file a bug they may acknowledge it is a bug but will mark it as will not fix in this build, and the next build.  If we can explain to the Dev team why it should work this way, that this is
    the future of Server installs they may look at changing it in V.next.next t be shipped, who knows when. 3 years from now?

  • My phone when making a call makes aloud electrical or screaming noise any idea what may cause problem

    When I make a call a loud electrical or screaming noise is all you can hear what would the most probable cause?

    If you can listen to the other person on loud speaker, means your earpeice got damaged.
    If you have warranty (1 year is basic, upto 3yrs if you bought an extended apple care), you can take your iphone to any apple store in the world for a free repair, yes, apple warranties are international.
    But usually they replace it with another new phone.
    So make sure you update your phone and backup everything on your itunes.
    Even if you're ot of warranty, you can get it fixed from apple by paying extra.
    For now you have to use headphone or loud speaker
    Goodluck

  • Does anyone understand what may cause this cryptic error ?

    I am using PP CS6, on a fully updated Windows 8 Enterprise machine located in a Windows 2012 network environment, 2 Xeon E5-2650,64 Gb RAM, 2 4Gb GTX 680 cards and Samsung 512 SSD. PP CS6 has been running fine for a long time with no issues until now. Project media files on an USB3 seagate external drive and scratch disks located on a eSata GDATA external drive. Borix BCC 9, FCC 7, Reg Giant Shooter suite, Tiffen DFX suite installed. A few months back, I prepared all the media creating several sequences, one for each main subject, to be assembled later. Then, when I got back to it and started working on them, if I did the slightest modification and tried to save and reopen the file, I would get the following error :
    Note that this path does not even exist on my system !!!
    When clicking on continue it gives:
    Which means : "Impossible to open, It sounds like it is dammaged or contains stale elements"
    I tried Googling this error and could not find anything regarding that specifically. I saw some similar error, which some people tried to fix using XML Wrench tool, OMG !! I tried to do that, I also tried using some sofisticated XML tools to find differences, I tried to see that was different between the original "openable" file and the problem one. I did see, like some people mentioned the presences of DOTS instead of COMMAS, and tried to change that, of course this did not do anything.
    I also tried using Pro tools installed on my wife's Mac machine and tried to repair the file, the best I came to was to delete all transitions and media connexions, but then, it was more time consuming to reconnect all media than restarting the whole thing.
    I actually was able to recover one of the sequence only, which still was a relief, but that was it.
    I tried opening the file directly on the Mac (with a trial PP CS6 version installed) but it gave the same error as above.
    I also tried it on my Windows laptop which has everything installed, but would get the same error. So it sounds like PP is corrupting the projects as it is creating them. I survived that edit by exporting everthing as I went along to not loose time.
    Today I removed CS6, and used the Adobe CC cleaning tool. I tried to open the problem project file but same error. But this is no surprise since it did the same elsewhere.
    One other odd thing, everytime I open an older project, the time line is streched to the max, as if an older config is stuck.
    I did a test with the newly installed PPCS6 and I am still experiencing the same error !
    Anyone having any clue to the meaning of that error ? !!

    I was able to reproduce the error. I worked on one of the project that was recovered but stripped and replaced all the key-frames. No problem opening and saving, UNTIL I started to add effects, only added LOOKS from DFX and the Fast color corrector, then the error showed up. I tested it with only these two errors on only one tiny sequence section.

  • What may interfere with 802.11n?

    Hello!
    I've got a very strange problem with my MacBook.
    I've just bought a new TC to replace my old 802.11g wireless access point.
    Now, there is a very strange thing: 802.11n has a very good signal in all my house, except my room. In the corridor, the signal is excellent (100% or so), but when I walk 1 meter inside my room, the signal disappears almost completely (and it isn't possible to surf the Net).
    What may cause this? It's very strange...
    Also, my iPhone, which uses 802.11g, can connect in my room, and so was I able to do with my old router... So it seems only a problem of n-wireless...

    and so? what shall I do?
    I cannot disable n wirelessing so my MB always tries to connect using n...
    then, in every other room it's working perfectly... for istance, at the moment I'm in the kitchen and I'm surfing wirelessly...

    What may cause uneven screen brightness on iPad 3? I have noticed this briefly on my new iPad right out of the box. It didn't remain after I powered down and restarted. It occurred on the right side with the home button down.

    Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • After downloading the latest update, my playlists now go into shuffle mode everytime I try to play.  I have turn6ed off shuffle on both my computer and ipod, and even tried recreating a new list, to no avail.  Any ideas as to what may be causing this?

    After downloading the latest update for my Ipod touch, my playlists now go into "shuffle" mode everytime I try to play.  I have turned off shuffle on both itunes and my ipod and even tried recreating the playlist and syncing with no luck.  I don't know what is causing this, because before the last download, it never happened.  Any ideas on how to fix?

    Since this is an XP machine, which version of iTunes do you have installed?  Is it the latest version?
    Have you tried starting iTunes, attach the USB end of the cable, then while holding the home button on the iPod connect the 30-pin connector end of the cable to the iPod...that is the recovery mode but also should make iTunes see the iPod.
    If that doesn't work you may need to take the iPod back and have it tested by the genius bar techs to make sure the connector is not bad.

  • I bought an ipad a few days before I went on holiday. On my return some weeks later I found my BT broadband had peaked astronomically. It had quadrupled my normal monthly usage. I hardly used it for wifi whilst there. Any ideas what may have caused it?

    Any ideas what may have caused it? 

    Thank you again....Not having a clue what WEP is, I've done a little research. I have a BT Home Hub 3 which apparently by default uses WPA.  BT have suggested I turn my hub off for 24 hours for them to monitor. However on returning home my February usage has gone back down again to it's average usage, so I think it's unlikely we'll learn a great deal. I am convinced the huge peak was caused somehow by my limited use of the ipad whilst we were abroad. I've been trying to get to the bottom of it, so that it doesn't happen again next time we go abroad.
    For interest the ipad doesn't have we fi plus cellular.
    The new BT Home Hub uses WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) encryption by default to protect the data that moves across the radio waves from it to other wireless devices. Many wireless devices sold today offer this more secure method of protection. WEP (Wireless Equivalent Privacy) is an older, less secure way of protecting such data. The BT Home Hub and BT Home Hub 1.5 both use WEP encryption by default since some older wireless devices are not compatible with stronger encryption types, such as WPA.

  • My iPhone 5 is no longer charging. It'll charge for a bit and then a pop up will appear saying that the phone is not longer charging because the accessory is not supported. This is the third charger I use. What may be causing this?

    What can cause te chargers not to charge the phone? It's not the cable because I've changed it a few times. Must be the phone, right?

    Clean the connector.
    Try a different cable.
