X-y table with motor control

Hello all,
Has anyone come across a decent off the shelf x-y table that can be
position controlled using labview ?
It does not need to be extremely precise, I would just like to be able
to move different quadrants of a circuit board into position for
viewing with a CCD. I cannot currently get the entire board in my FOV
with any reasonable resolution so would like to be able to break up
the board into segments.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Have a great weekend.
Rick B.

Rick,
You can check our Motion Control 3rd Party Resources to see if any of our Partners do have a XY stage or table to fit your needs.
Good luck!

Communication with motor control using RS-232

I need to use labview to communication with a stepper motor drive using the serial port RS-232. Could someone please get me started I'm not sure if a should use VISA or instrument I/O. And if I use one of those, how would I set it up?

Hi Phil,
Outside of LabView, how do you communicate with or control the motor drive? If you are able to use software like HyperTerminal or Procomm, then using the VISA serial communication tools will be the simple way of implementing your solution.
Here are some links which may provide clues on how to proceed. You can also do a search on VISA Serial communication.
Happy wiring!!

Fast method to fill Table with ring controls from index

Dear Users,
I have a rather big table that contains one row with ring control cells.
Teh table is filled from a few arrays before usage and the user is supposed change the value of certain cells by selecting the ring items.
I have 2 questions:
1.) is there a fast way to fill the ring items (value list ) of a complete column ?
     All cells should have the same ring elements.
     (The function InsertTableCellRangeRingItem() is rather slow...)
2.) is there a fast way to fill the column using an array of ring indices ?
     I have an array of indeces present that I want to use to fill the whole column at one.
     Using SetTableCellValFromIndex() is rather slow. I would need a function SetTableCellRangeValFromIndex
     Is there any possibility ?
Thanks for your help !!!

How to make a contour (3D) plot with motor control and DAQ?

Hi,
I have a instrument sitting on a movable slider. What I am doing right now is :
a) Go to position 1 and wait until position reached.
b) Measure the spot.
c) Go to next position.
What I want to do:
a) Move the device and measure continously at the same time.
Question: Is there a strategy, how to bring those to data streams (positions, measured data) together with not so much effort?
System: I am using Labview 2014. Data aqcuisition rate is 20Hz.
I can think of: collect data in a queue, manually setting timestamps and comparing them afterwards. But I guess, there is an easier solution existing already somewhere... Any advice?
I can not easily support correct VI´s, because they require hardware connected. I will build a simulator in the meantime

I made a small simulation Vi. But as I understood now, Labview can only scale the indices and not have a real matrix of data points with different distances.... So I need to have equal time distances and equal movements over the surface. I thought, I should track the actual position and give that arbitary parameters as an axis.

Simple motor control with Labview

Can anyone suggest a simple motor to be controlled by labview. I am interested in making a small scale elevator that is controlled with a labview interface. If anyone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. - Bryan

Attached is the vi for the program. I will also try and attach the C code for the project. It took a lot of failed attempts to get it working so I hope this works for you. I don't have a schematic for you, but if you look over the C code it should let you know. Also I used the CCS development kit 16F877A. I'm not great at programming in C so there is a good chance you can clean it up a bit.
I'll keep an eye on this post if you have any questions, when winter comes I'll probably work on this some more.

DC Motor Control - AKD Drive and LabVIEW Softmotion

Dear all,
I need to control a DC motor, which basicly has to rotate from -15 degrees to +15 degrees with changeable frequencies/time period.
The motor is used for inducing vibrations, thus the frequency and positioning must be (easily) controlled in LabVIEW.
My setup looks as follows:
cRIO 9082, NI 9514 C-Module, AKD Servo drive and an AKD DC Brushless motor.
Until this point i have used a "Contour move block - repetitive" for controlling the engine using a table, however, this doesn't allow me to configure velocity and acceleration etc. Furthermore, I don't know what units the block inputs are (radians, degrees, units/rotations whatsoever) - See pictures for details on diagram and setup.
Also, i would like the possibility to actually see and/or control a PID-controller using the feedback option.
So, i short, i basicly want to:
- Control the positioning of my DC motor (from -15 to +15 degrees).
- Control the motor using a PID controller (not necessarily needed, but i would like the possibilty)
- Control the velocity, acceleration, deceleration and frequency/time period.
Thanks in advance - looking forward to some good answers!
Have a great easter holiday.
Best regards,
Jzaulich

Hi Anders,
Thanks for your reply.
I have the softmotion module installed and working - thats not the issue.
However, at the moment i'm using the "countour move" example provided with the SoftMotion module.
It works fine, however, it doesn't allow me to change the system too much and the unit of the input is not denoted anywhere (radians, degrees, revolutions etc.).
As i am all new to both LabVIEW and SoftMotion there's obviously a lot of obstacles.
I would like to model the motor control using a PID regulator with the position as input - is this possible, without making it too complex?
Best regards,
JZaulich.

How can I build a table with the time values of a timer from a while loop

Hi:
I have a question concerning building a table:
Every 100ms I read a value from a sensor (while loop with a timer). I would like to build a table with the actual time and the concerning value. For example:
0msec         1V
100msec     2V
200msec     3V
300msec     4V
etc.
If I use the Express VI for building a table, I always get the date and time, but I don't need the date and the time is in the following format: HH:MMS, which is nonsensical for me as I can't differentiate within msec. Can I change the format anywhere?
Can I also save the table to a file or even to an Excelsheet? How can I do that?
Thanks for your help!

Hi Craig:
thank you very much. To solve the mystery : ) :
I want to drive a stepper motor with a specific frequency. To get the current degree value of the motor I would like to measure the current time (from the beginning of the move on). (With a formula I get the degree value out of the time)
Concurrently I would like to get data from a torque sensor and from a pressure sensor. That's why I asked you about the time and the table. The measurement should start with the movement of the motor. How can I do that? Right now I have different block diagrams (different while loops) (see attachment) and I would like to put them in one.
I haven't done the block diagram for the pressure sensor yet, so there is only the one for the torque sensor and the one for the motor.
I also would like to set a mark in the table when the voltage value of an analog input gets under a specific threshold value. Is that possible?
I'm sorry, I'm a novice in LabVIEW. But maybe you can help me.
Thank you very much!

How can I filter a table from Data Control without enter query

I have a table from a web service data control based on WSDL.
I want to filter the table without input query at filter text box. Without filter text box, each would filter the table with a hardcoded query internally.
For example, when user click A menu button then it filters the table where type = '1' and B menu button filters the table by type='2' and C menu button filters the table by type=' ' .
How can I filter the table without enter query?
Could anyone point me to a solution please.
Thanks.

Hi,
when you created the table, did you try selecting the "filter" option. Select the table and go to the Property Inspctor. In the tool bar of the Property Inspector there is an icon to change the configuration. Its adding filter filter fields for the user to search in.
Option 2: The data of the Web Service actually is held in the iterators. If you wanted to filter the WebService query, I would not use the WS DC but a JAX-WS proxy in a POJO to fetch the WS Data. Then have the Data Control created from the POJO. You could have a method exposed on the POJO that allows you to filter the internally held data

How to select one row in a table with radio button

Hi all.
I have a VO where there is an attribute (isDefault [String]) that identifies the default record in the view. The possible values are 'Y' for yes and 'N' for no. Obviously only one record can have the 'Y' value.
In my page I have created an ADF Table (with the usual data control drag & drop). I would to transform the default inputText of "isDefault" field with a selectOneRadio component in order to permit the user to select (and save contextually in the DB) the default row of this table.
Can you explain me how? I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.1.4.
Thanks in advance.

1. At the ViewObjectImpl level (for example, YourViewObjectImpl), add the following code:

     // remember a new selected row key:
    currSelectedRowKey = newKey;
}In the ViewRowImpl, in the transient attr settter, do as follows:
public void setStatusAsBoolean(Boolean value) {
     setStatus(value.booleanValue() ? ONE : ZERO);
     if (value.booleanValue()) {
         YourViewObjectImpl vo = (YourViewObjectImpl)getViewObject();

How to create a table with a dynamic amount of columns

Hi, all!
Thare is a tutorial at javaFX documentation page. This example describes how to make tableView, if you have some certain java class, which can tell you which columns you are going to have. (That is a Person class in this example).
But what if i do not have any specific class, and number of columns can vary from time to time? In my case i have such data structure:
class TableData{
    List<Row> rows; //A list with all my rows i need to have in my table
class Row{
    List<Column> columns; //Cells\Columns for every row.
class Column{
    Attribute attr; //Each column - is somethig like a wrapper for the real data i need to show in a cell;
class Attribute{ //My precues data
    String name;
    SupportingInfo info;
class SupportingInfo{//Some supporting fields...
    String name;
    String value;
    //...etc....
}So, my case is very similar to [this one|http://blog.ngopal.com.np/2011/10/19/dyanmic-tableview-data-from-database/] . The only differents is that data from the case above is not binded with its representation in javaFX table (so, even if some one will make extra controls to edit this data in a tableView, the actual object with that data will never know about it.), because it(data) goes to the table like some strings, not like some objects;
So, what do i need - is to push data to the table (like that: table.setItems(tableData)), set some set Factories, to give user ability to edit data, and to have this edited data in my tableData object;
Here are some code i've tried to make for this purpose:
//prepare my table
private void createTableHeader(TableView table, List<Attribute> ias) {
    int i = 0;
    for (final Attribute ia : ias) {
        final int j = i;
        i++;
        TableColumn tc = new TableColumn(ia.getName());
        tc.setSortable(true);
        tc.setCellValueFactory(new Callback<CellDataFeatures<List<Attribute>, String>, ObservableValue<String>>() {
            @Override
            public ObservableValue<String> call(CellDataFeatures<List<Attribute>, String> arg0) {
                if(arg0.getValue().get(j).getSupportingInfo() == null){
                    arg0.getValue().get(j).setSupportingInfo(new SupportingInfo());
                return new SimpleObjectProperty(arg0.getValue().get(j),"value");
        table.getColumns().add(tc);
//loading some data to my tableView
private void createTableBody(TableView curTable, List<Row> rows) {
    ObservableList<List<Attribute>> data = FXCollections.observableArrayList();
    for (Row row : rows) {
        data.add(row.getColumns());
    curTable.setItems(data);
//this one is to define some extra controls for editing data in a table by users
private void makeCellFactory(TableColumn curTableCol, final Attribute templateIa, final Document doc) {
    curTableCol.setCellFactory(new Callback<TableColumn, TableCell>() {
        public TableCell call(TableColumn p) {
            final EditingCell cell = new EditingCell(templateIa, doc);
            return cell;
}But, as a result, i have just empty rows in my table, with an ability to click some cell and recieve table editing controls. But there is not defult values in by table; What am i doing wrong in my code?

I put an example up on this thread No DataGrid component? with a TableView displaying values from a non-JavaFX aware data model. It might help get you started. This example is not editable, to make your table editable you would need to update the data model directly when editing is complete.
Note that if you're building the data model from scratch, there's no need for the listener-notification to be built by hand, as I did in the example. Your data model can directly use the same JavaFX collections instances the table is using.

How can I see changes in table with insertrow();postchanges()without commit

Hi friends;
I use jdeveloper 10.1.3.1 with jheadstart 10.1.3.1.
I create two view object.In the first page I create table with one view object.
In the second page I create table (with tableselectmany) with other view.
I select many rows in second page and in the managed bean,
I insert selectted rows atributes to first pages tables attributes.
I use this code.
public String commandbuttonaction(){
CoreTable table = this.getTable1();
Set rowSet = table.getSelectionState().getKeySet();
Iterator rowSetIter = rowSet.iterator();
BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
DCIteratorBinding pr_dcib = (DCIteratorBinding)
bindings.get("DeptIterator");
int i=206;
while (rowSetIter.hasNext()){
Key key = (Key) rowSetIter.next();
pr_dcib.setCurrentRowWithKey(key.toStringFormat(true));
RowImpl prRow = (RowImpl) pr_dcib.getCurrentRow();
String AM="model.AppModule";
String CF="AppModuleLocal";
ApplicationModule empSvc = Configuration.createRootApplicationModule(AM, CF);
ViewObject emps = empSvc.findViewObject("EmpsView1");
Row newEmp = emps.createRow();
newEmp.setAttribute("Manager",new Number(1));
newEmp.setAttribute("Department",new Number(1));
newEmp.setAttribute("Depno",new Number(3));
emps.insertRow(newEmp);
try {
newEmp.validate();
catch (Exception ex) {
System.out.println("validate catch");
try {
empSvc.getTransaction().postChanges();
catch (Exception ex) {
System.out.println("post catch");
Configuration.releaseRootApplicationModule(empSvc,true);
i=i+1;
In this code I only postchanges() in first view and dont want to commit.
But I cant see changes row in the page .If I press save I see transaction completed succesfully message.
But in database not insertted any rows.
If I write commit() after postchanges() code I see rows in the table .But I dont want to commit.Only post
my changes and if necessary I press save button in page.
How can I see changes in the page without commit???Thanks for all....

You should NEVER use statements like this in managed beans:
ApplicationModule empSvc = Configuration.createRootApplicationModule(AM, CF);
This will create a separate application module instance, not shared by the the web pages. That's why you do not see the changes.
Instead, you can use the following code:
ApplicationModule am = (ApplicationModule)JsfUtils.getExpressionValue("#{data.MyAppModuleDataControl.dataProvider}");
where MyAppModuleDataControl shoud be replaced with the name of your am data control.

Change Tablespace of a table with LONG column

I have a 9i database that I have just gotten control of. At this point there is just one big dictionary managed tablespace for everything created by users. I am trying to move to multiple locally managed tablespaces with fixed extent sizes but I have run into a problem.
I have one table with one LONG datatype column. Apparently there is a huge amount of work involved to change the code if I make it a BLOB so that is out.
At this point I would like to change the tablespace of this table but I can't move it the normal way because of the LONG column. I have found mention of being able to do this with "COPY" but I can't find any documentation on the "COPY" command in the 9i Docs.
Any help would be appreciated,
Chris S.

Chris-
Can't you create your new table ahead of time in your new tablespace?
You could then use a statement like:
COPY FROM old/your_password@olddb TO new/your_password@newdb -
REPLACE NEWTABLE -
USING SELECT * FROM OLDTABLE;

Creation of Custom IDoc with Message control for sales Order

Hi all,
I am trying to create custom Outbound IDoc with message control.
I wrote the code in a function module and i want to register that function module. (as in inbound registration of function module as in BD51).I am not knowing if that registration is necessary for outbound Idoc, if so in which transacition?
Please list me the steps to create a custom IDoc for Message control.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
John.

Hi,
You need to use FM : MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE to create outbound idoc.fill the data in the tables EDIDC,EDIDD and generate the IDOC.
check this link:
Re: Master_IDoc_Distribute
and use transaction : WEDI for IDOC configurations.
here you will have all the transactions(step by step) to set the outbound IDOC configurations.
