Why is SCC FT MODULE USED?

i am about to use SCC FT module for one of my applications?what is this device function and under which situations is this useful?

Hello,
The NI SCC-FT01 is a feedthrough module that offers direct connection to analog input or output, digital I/O and Counter channels of the E Series DAQ device. It also includes breadboard area for development of custom signal conditioning circuitry for analog input, analog output, digital I/O, and GPCTR channels of the E Series DAQ device.
I recommend you to read the User Manual of the FT01. You'll find there a more detailed description.

Can I use SCC-DI01 modules with a PCI-6533 device?

I am looking into performing buffered acquisition of various digital signals using a PCI-6533 device. Can I use SCC-DI01 modules with this device? If so, would this be via the SC-2345 Carrier? The manual seemed to suggest is was only compatible with E-series devices?
Basically, I want to monitor 32 digital channels and will have a mixture of 5V and 24V signals.
Many thanks,
Douglas

Hi Douglas
Could you please clarify where the manual suggests that the module is only compatible with an E series board (is it because only an E series board is referenced in the manual)?
I can't find any information stating which devices are/aren't supported by the SCC-DI01, but I will continue to investigate and keep you posted with my progress.
Kind Regards

Converting RTD voltage to temperature using SCC-TC module.

I'm trying to convert the thermistor voltage from an SCC-TD module to deg C (using VB6). I am using the formulas supplied with the SCC-TC manual. The formula that I'm having problems with is Tk = 1/ [a+b(1nRt)+c(1nRt)^3]. I understand Rt to be the resistance of the thermistor but what is 1n?
If all else fails is there an API call I can make in VB6 for this conversion. I have seen reference to one in C but not VB6.

Hello,
It is not 1n, it is ln i.e., natural logarithm.
The NI-DAQ Users manual talks about the conversion functions.

Why does Lightroom (and Photoshop) use AdobeRGB and/or ProPhoto RGB as default color spaces, when most monitors are standard gamut (sRGB) and cannot display the benefits of those wider gamuts?

I've asked this in a couple other places online as I try to wrap my head around color management, but the answer continues to elude me. That, or I've had it explained and I just didn't comprehend. So I continue. My confusion is this: everywhere it seems, experts and gurus and teachers and generally good, kind people of knowledge claim the benefits (in most instances, though not all) of working in AdobeRGB and ProPhoto RGB. And yet nobody seems to mention that the majority of people - including presumably many of those championing the wider gamut color spaces - are working on standard gamut displays. And to my mind, this is a huge oversight. What it means is, at best, those working this way are seeing nothing different than photos edited/output in sRGB, because [fortunately] the photos they took didn't include colors that exceeded sRGB's real estate. But at worst, they're editing blind, and probably messing up their work. That landscape they shot with all those lush greens that sRGB can't handle? Well, if they're working in AdobeRGB on a standard gamut display, they can't see those greens either. So, as I understand it, the color managed software is going to algorithmically reign in that wild green and bring it down to sRGB's turf (and this I believe is where relative and perceptual rendering intents come into play), and give them the best approximation, within the display's gamut capabilities. But now this person is editing thinking they're in AdobeRGB, thinking that green is AdobeRGB's green, but it's not. So any changes they make to this image, they're making to an image that's displaying to their eyes as sRGB, even if the color space is, technically, AdobeRGB. So they save, output this image as an AdobeRGB file, unaware that [they] altered it seeing inaccurate color. The person who opens this file on a wide gamut monitor, in the appropriate (wide gamut) color space, is now going to see this image "accurately" for the first time. Only it was edited by someone who hadn't seen it accurately. So who know what it looks like. And if the person who edited it is there, they'd be like, "wait, that's not what I sent you!"
Am I wrong? I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone. I shoot everything RAW, and I someday would love to see these photos opened up in a nice, big color space. And since they're RAW, I will, and probably not too far in the future. But right now I export everything to sRGB, because - internet standards aside - I don't know anybody who I'd share my photos with, who has a wide gamut monitor. I mean, as far as I know, most standard gamut monitors can't even display 100% sRGB! I just bought a really nice QHD display marketed toward design and photography professionals, and I don't think it's 100. I thought of getting the wide gamut version, but was advised to stay away because so much of my day-to-day usage would be with things that didn't utilize those gamuts, and generally speaking, my colors would be off. So I went with the standard gamut, like 99% of everybody else.
So what should I do? As it is, I have my Photoshop color space set to sRGB. I just read that Lightroom as its default uses ProPhoto in the Develop module, and AdobeRGB in the Library (for previews and such).
Thanks for any help!

Okay. Going bigger is better, do so when you can (in 16-bit). Darn, those TIFs are big though. So, ideally, one really doesn't want to take the picture to Photoshop until one has to, right? Because as long as it's in LR, it's going to be a comparatively small file (a dozen or two MBs vs say 150 as a TIF). And doesn't LR's develop module use the same 'engine' or something, as ACR plug-in? So if your adjustments are basic, able to be done in either LR Develop, or PS ACR, all things being equal, choose to stay in LR?

PS RGB Workspace: ProPhotoRGB and I convert any 8-bit documents to 16-bit before doing any adjustments.
Why does one convert 8-bit pics to 16-bit? Not sure if this is an apt comparison, but it seems to me that that's kind of like upscaling, in video. Which I've always taken to mean adding redundant information to a file so that it 'fits' the larger canvas, but to no material improvement. In the case of video, I think I'd rather watch a 1080p movie on an HD (1080) screen (here I go again with my pixel-to-pixel prejudice), than watch a 1080p movie on a 4K TV, upscaled. But I'm ready to be wrong here, too. Maybe there would be no discernible difference? Maybe even though the source material were 1080p, I could still sit closer to the 4K TV, because of the smaller and more densely packed array of pixels. Or maybe I only get that benefit when it's a 4K picture on a 4K screen? Anyway, this is probably a different can of worms. I'm assuming that in the case of photo editing, converting from 8 to 16-bit allows one more room to work before bad things start to happen?
I'm recent to Lightroom and still in the process of organizing from Aperture. Being forced to "this is your life" through all the years (I don't recommend!), I realize probably all of my pictures older than 7 years ago are jpeg, and probably low-fi at that. I'm wondering how I should handle them, if and when I do. I'm noting your settings, ssprengel.
ssprengel Apr 28, 2015 9:40 PM
I save my PS intermediate or final master copy of my work as a 16-bit TIF still in the ProPhotoRGB, and only when I'm ready to share the image do I convert to sRGB then 8-bits, in that order, then do File / Save As: Format=JPG.
Part of the same question, I guess - why convert back to 8-bits? Is it for the recipient? Do some machines not read 16-bit? Something else?
For those of you working in these larger color spaces and not working with a wide gamut display, I'd love to know if there are any reasons you choose not to. Because I guess my biggest concern in all of this has been tied to what we're potentially losing by not seeing the breadth of the color space we work in represented while making value adjustments to our images. Based on what several have said here, it seems that the instances when our displays are unable to represent something as intended are infrequent, and when they do arise, they're usually not extreme.
Simon G E Garrett Apr 29, 2015 4:57 AM
With 8 bits, there are 256 possible values. If you use those 8 bits to cover a wider range of colours, then the difference between two adjacent values - between 100 and 101, say - is a larger difference in colour. With ProPhoto RGB in 8-bits there is a chance that this is visible, so a smooth colour wedge might look like a staircase. Hence ProPhoto RGB files might need to be kept as 16-bit TIFs, which of course are much, much bigger than 8-bit jpegs.
Over the course of my 'studies' I came across a side-by-side comparison of either two color spaces and how they handled value gradations, or 8-bit vs 16-bit in the same color space. One was a very smooth gradient, and the other was more like a series of columns, or as you say, a staircase. Maybe it was comparing sRGB with AdobeRGB, both as 8-bit. And how they handled the same "section" of value change. They're both working with 256 choices, right? So there might be some instances where, in 8-bit, the (numerically) same segment of values is smoother in sRGB than in AdobeRGB, no? Because of the example Simon illustrated above?
Oh, also -- in my Lumix LX100 the options for color space are sRGB or AdobeRGB. Am I correct to say that when I'm shooting RAW, these are irrelevant or ignored? I know there are instances (certain camera effects) where the camera forces the shot as a jpeg, and usually in that instance I believe it will be forced sRGB.
Thanks again. I think it's time to change some settings..

Multiple deployed modules using log4j log to same file

We have deployed two modules in ias 6.5 Solaris - moduleA and moduleB. Each of these modules uses log4j to write to a log file - logA and logB. Each module includes logj4.jar in it's WEB-INF/lib directory and the classes are unzipped upon deployment into an org/apache/log4j directory under each module.
Upon app server startup, neither module is loaded. A request is sent to /NASApp/moduleA. logA is written to as the module is initialized. A request is then sent to /NASApp/moduleB. logB is written to as the module in initialized. A request is then sent to /NASApp/moduleA again. This request should be logged in logA but is instead written to logB.
This happened in ias 6.0 sp3 as well as ias 6.5.
An attempt to determine the source of the problem:
The /APPS/modules/moduleB/WEB-INF/lib/org/apache/log4j directory was removed. This should cause ClassNotFoundExceptions to be thrown when attempts are made to write to log4j from moduleB. The appserver is first stopped, then killed, then started again - neither module is loaded. A request is sent to /NASApp/moduleA. logA is written to as the module is initialized. A request is then sent to /NASApp/moduleB - a request that should result in ClassNotFoundExceptions being thrown because the log4j classes are no longer present in the module's classpath. Instead, logB is written and everything behaves as was described above.
Based on this test, we believe that the root of this problem is once again a class loader issue. Apparently, the log4j classes are being loaded by a class loader that is shared between both moduleA and moduleB. Normally this would not cause a problem, but in the case of log4j, the target log file is being overwritten and causes the log entries to be shared between the two modules.
What must we do to remedy this problem? At present, the only fix we know will work is to run a separate appserver instance for each module - a solution that is not acceptable due to the amount of resources consumed by all of the deployed code.

Hi,
You are correct it is a classloader problem, in sp4/6.5 you have a separate classloader for each module (war/jar) but all the helping classes inside modules share a single classloader, that's why even after deleting the helping files from ModuleB it was working.
The remedy to your problem is to create ear module out of those ModuleA and ModuleB and put the helping jar files in both of the ear modules. For ias an ear file is an J2EE application and a separate classloader instance is dedicated to it, it holds true for all the helping classes in the ear module too and the helping classes in two J2EE application (ear module) no longer share the classloader.
I hope it will solve your problem. For further information regarding classloaders please visit Classloader runtime hierarchy.
Please feel free to ask further questions.

Why and how do we use CHAIN and ENDCHAIN

Why and how do we use CHAIN and ENDCHAIN

Hi,
To ensure that one or more PAI modules are only called when several screen fields meet a particular condition, you must combine the calls in the flow logic to form a processing chain. You define processing chains as follows:
CHAIN.
ENDCHAIN.
All flow logic statements between CHAIN and ENDCHAIN belong to a processing chain. The fields in the various FIELD statements are combined, and can be used in shared conditions.
CHAIN.
FIELD: <f1>, <f 2>,...
MODULE <mod1> ON CHAIN-INPUT|CHAIN-REQUEST.
FIELD: <g1>, <g 2>,...
MODULE <mod2> ON CHAIN-INPUT|CHAIN-REQUEST.
ENDCHAIN.
The additions ON CHAIN-INPUT and ON CHAIN-REQUEST work like the additions ON INPUT and ON REQUEST that you use for individual fields. The exception is that the module is called whenever at least one of the fields listed in a preceding FIELD statement within the chain meets the condition. So <mod1> is called when one of the fields <fi> meets the condition. <mod2> is called when one of the fields <f i> or <g i> meets the condition.
Within a processing chain, you can combine individual FIELD statements with a MODULE statement to set a condition for a single field within the chain:
CHAIN.
FIELD: <f1>, <f 2>,...
FIELD <f> MODULE <mod1> ON INPUT|REQUEST|*-INPUT
|CHAIN-INPUT|CHAIN-REQUEST.
MODULE <mod2> ON CHAIN-INPUT|CHAIN-REQUEST.
ENDCHAIN.
The module <mod1> is called when screen field <f> meets the specified condition for individual fields. <mod2> is called when one of the fields <fi> or <f> meets the condition. If you use the addition ON CHAIN-INPUT or ON CHAIN-REQUEST with FIELD <f>, the condition also applies to the entire chain and module <mod1> and <mod2> are both called.
In cases where you apply conditions to various combinations of screen fields, it is worth setting up a separate processing chain for each combination and calling different modules from within it.

Deployment of the SiteMinder WebAS module using SDA is no longer supported

I just came to know that "the deployment of the SiteMinder WebAS module using SDA is no longer supported by SAP "
Can any body please verify that how much this is correct.
Also,just out of curiousity, i want to know that do SAP still support SDA as the mean of deploying various modules?

Can SCC-RTD01 be used with Cernox RTD's, silicon diode temperature sensors?

Hi,
Can the SCC-RTD01 be used with negative temperature
coefficient RTD's such as the Cernox RTD's. Can it be used with
silicon diode temperature sensors?
I was planning on using the SCC-RTD01 with platinum
resistance wires, but want a screw mount type sensor. Couldn't
find any platinum RTD devices with screw mounts, but could find the
Cernox and diode temperature sensors with the screw mounts.
Thanks,
Mark

Mark,
Thank you for contacting National Instruments! When you configure an RTD channel in the Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX), you have the option of choosing from a list of "standard" RTD's or entering your own polynomial expression as the temperature coefficients. Therefore, negative coefficients shouldn't pose a problem. Also, I don't see any reason why a silicon diode temperature sensor would pose a problem either.
I hope this information is helpful to you!

Does SCC-A10 module provide isolation similar to SCC-AIxx module?

I have a NRSE signal with range of 0 to 13 volts. I am using an SC-2345 and a DAQ-6035E.
I have both SCC-AI04 modules and SCC-A10 modules. I currently have it set up with the SCC-AI04 module and a resistor voltage divider on the input to scale the input from 0-13 volts to 0-5 volts.
I wish I could use an SCC-A10 module as a first stage and a SCC-AI04 module as a second stage, but this appears to be forbidden.
If I use only the SCC-A10 module, will I lose the benefit of the isolation?
Thanks if advance.

We have a number of existing systems which use a photomultiplier tube to monitor an optical process. Mostly we use Hamamatsu R928 PMTs with C6271 sockets. The systems have been around for years and I only recently got involved with them. The NI hardware is 10 or more years old and it makes more sense to move forward to the current generation of hardware.
The operators of the existing systems do not well understand the electrical and/or electronic aspect of the system and there is lots of shop talk about 'noise' and 'ground loops'. I am working to simplify the rats nest of wiring and to separate the myths from the facts. There is a general sense that isolated everything is required. I am not convinced, but I don't want to go backwards.
The interesting bit is that I got involved because one of the operators took a screwdriver to a home-built low pass filter and when he shorted it out, it fried up the $1500 DAQ card and the PC as well. If it hadn't been for the screwdriver, I would not have seen it.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Why can't I just use my debit card for adding my child to family share?!

I want to use my child on family share but can't because I don't need or want a credit card, my bank has fraud protection, who actually just called me about fraud because I purchased the newest iPhone! I don't like credit cards. Why can't I just use my debit card as usual? Kids can get credit cards just as easily as they can debit cards! This is ridiculous. Why isn't there another option to verify I am the parent?! I am so beyond angry right now. Like I am being punished for not owning a credit card!! Otherwise there will be another way to do this. A person should have the freedom to use their chosen form of payment without missing out on all the options available. Honestly even if I wanted a credit card I haven't enough credit because of past mistakes. So this is not making me happy at all.

Mad Parent,
I feel your pain. We refuse to have credit cards, too; yet it's required in order to create a child's apple id. I will most definitely be leaving feedback with Apple. This is absolutely ridiculous that we can't just use our debit cards! Mine is a VISA. I use it to make CREDIT CARD transactions everywhere else, why not be able to use it the same way here!?
I just had to restore my sons phone because he forgot his 4-digit password and got it disabled. I didn't have it already on my itunes so my only option was to restore it. I wanted to create his own apple id so he didn't have to keep using mine. Because every time he downloads a new game it automatically ends up on MY device as well, not just his. Anyway, he needs his own apple id. But, apparently, that won't be happening until Apple gets their heads out of their butts and figures out how to serve ALL of their customers!
Signed,
Equally Mad Parent

i put money to my itunes account. and now when i try and buy a song it keeps saying that it has to charge my card. why wont it let me use the giftcard money? how can i fix this?

If you still have your old card listed on your account then try selecting the 'none' option and remove it and then try entering the card's details from scratch. If that doesn't work then what is the full error message that you are getting, and the card is registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing) that you have on your iTunes account ?

Why can't I just use DreamWeaver?

I purchased a subscription to DreamWeaver nearly a year ago, but every time I try to open the program, it tells me that my trial period has expired. When I follow the instructions to "License this Software," it tells me to log in and asks me for a serial number. When I key in the serial number--the exact serial number that's listed with my username and password--it tells me the serial number is invalid. Why can't I just use the software? I've been paying a monthly fee for 11 months now, and I have to go through this charade every time I triy to use the software. Been using computers for 30 years and never experienced anything like this. Any advice?

Hi JohnLynnBob,
You should delete all the Adobe entries from the 'hosts' file in your computer.
The location of hosts file is
For windows :-- C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts (Open it with notepad)
For Mac :-- Open finder window ---> click on Go on the top ---> Go to folder --->Type '/etc' ---> Press enter --- hosts ( open it with text edit)
If you see any Adobe entries in the hosts file delete them, save the file, and then launch the product ---> license this software ---> sign in ---> the subscription will be activated.
Thanks

Hi,
I had never heard of someone using the iPhone Number as the ID in the iMessages account in the Mac version.
i.e without adding an Apple ID
iMessages does allow iPhone numbers and mine lists mine.
I would try this.
Sign Out of the iMessages account and Quit Messages
On the iPhone in Settings > Messages remove the Apple ID
Set the iPhone to Airplane mode for a few minutes (to break with the Server)
On starting the phone up again check the iPhone Number is ticked for iMessages.
If it is add the Apple ID
On the Mac restart Messages
Add the Apple ID
At this point you should get a pop up or two saying the iPhone is using the Number and Apple ID.
Accept these and they get added to the Receive At list and Send From drop down.

Why can I no longer use my headphones remote to fast forward or rewind music videos on iPhone since upgrading to ios7?

The YouTube app is not included in iOS 6 (I think because the licensing agreement with google ended). You will either need to try one of the YouTube apps from the store (there is an iPhone optimised app from google, and other people have said that they are working on an iPad version), or (if this isn't the version that you have tried) try accessing the mobile version via Safari : http://m.youtube.com (you can create a home screen shortcut for the site)
