Change programmatically VI Description

I'm trying to programmatically change the Description of VI for a wide range of screw Seems like it should be very easy, but it doesn't seem to work. I can read the text of Description of VI very well, but when I try to write to this property, nothing happens. The text does not get published, and no error is reported. What I am doing wrong?

NEITHER documentation says that the Description VI property can be set programmatically:

Thank you for your help.

You must save the VI after you update the description.

  • color of the text decoration, change programmatically

    Hello

    I have a VI with a text on it (not a chain). Is it possible to change the color of the text programmatically?

    I can change the color of the background of the text using nodes property to determine its decoration Ref, wiring and then the new values of color to the property "color".

    A similar stated is possible to set the color of the text?

    -i realize I could achieve something similar by replacing text areas FP with indicators of chain and ownership of wire knots, but would prefer not to have to at this stage!

    Although the decoration of the façade have no icons of block diagram, it is possible to change some of their properties. If you access the list of properties of the Panel before decorations [], you can return references to each element of the façade decoration. However, the list of available properties for the decorations of the façade is limited, so identify your decoration will be difficult.

    One possibility would be to perform a cast of a decoration > classroom text and verify the error. If this means no error then you know you've found yourself a text decoration. Then, in a case of no error, check the text property against the decoration you are looking for. If it matches, change the color of the text property.

    Of course, don't forget to close all references (my example is unfinished, but works ok).

  • Changes programmatically to the tables of the ICM

    We use IPCC 6.0 (0) with Office CTIOS sr3. We have about 500 agents and skills ~ 40.

    We try to write a web application to allow supervisors to agents to recycle without remote control in an AW (too complicated and unwieldy by their report). Certainly, we can make changes to the table on the AW and even the loggers (in the laboratory, of course). However, the changes do not seem to be reflected in MCI and ITAS. They appear in the Configuration Manager well.

    What do we lack? Is there an additional procedure, we have to do to get the committed change, or a security procedure to allow the change to be taken?

    Any help is appreciated. Snatching the this will be a big victory for my team.

    See if I can explain what happens when you make a change with ICM set up on an Admin workstation and you will see why your idea will not work.

    As you probably know, you can not run ICM set up on a distributor AW if it does not flow in real time. You've probably seen cela when CIM (RTDist, RTClient, UpdateAW, Logger) services had not been started and you pulled up to the graphical interface of configuration and it hung for a minute before reporting that he could not get the feed in real time.

    On a client Admin work stations, it is run through the Distributor AW, and a proxy configuration applies. However, there is a real time stream.

    Assuming that you have the running configuration tool and you change the skills of the agent group.

    1. the configuration tool sends the request to the DBAgent processes running on the router.

    2 DBAgent confirms the credentials of the user on the domain controller.

    3 DBAgent sends the request to the router process (rtr).

    4. the rtr process informs the process lgr running on the recorder the Canal of MDS.

    5. the lgr updates the SQL from Microsoft Central controller database.

    6. once the change has been introduced to the DB, the lgr informs the rtr that the update was successful, and now the rtr is updating its configuration in memory. To do this, after the validation was successful - should the commit SQL failed, the rtr config does not change.

    7. the rtr process informs the DBAgent process.

    8. the DBAgent updates GUI Config CIM on the stream in real time, and it shows that the skills group has changed.

    9. at the same time, the rtr process tells the RTServer processes running on the router to tell the Distributor AWs (you probably have two) that there has been a change in the configuration.

    10. the RTDist process running on the AW Dist means change and all the RTClients that changed the config.

    11 RTDist also said the UpdateAW process running on the Dist AW that the configuration has changed.

    12 UpdateAW queries the central command database for the configuration change and tells the processes running on the AW Dist lgr.

    13. the lgr process writes the data in the DB of AW.

    If someone opens the Config anew ICM tool they read information from the database of AW, but it has been updated with the change as the last element in a chain complex.

    The result of all this is - do not!

    What you want to do is upgrade to ICM 7.0 and you will get two elements that will make you happy:

    * a Web interface to the evolution of the powers of jurisdiction.

    improving agents to sign, and then reconnect to get calls about the new skill, they have just received - it is dynamic (as it should).

    There you go - a big win for your team at the cost of an upgrade of the ICM. ;-)

  • How can I stop my list of exceptions of the cookie to be changed programmatically?

    I never accept cookies from Firefox, and I have a list of exceptions specifically allowing cookies from sites of my choice. Problem is this exception list is somehow expanded with sites that I didn't understand, and in some cases, the sites that I've blocked more precisely. For example, I explicitly blocked cookies from Google. Yet, when I check the list, I find the rule I entered the blocking of Google and a new rule that I go by specifying that Google may drop of only first party cookies.

    Question: Which (apart from me, the user) is allowed to expand the list of exceptions and why? Seems to me that what makes the promise of the list almost worthless.

    I am running Firefox 33.1.1.

  • If you change a value on a disabled control programmatically, become reactivated?

    I'm trying to solve a problem on a surface that worked before I added new codes...

    I have a cluster with Boolean LED, ring type dropdown menus and text boxes.

    Before... I've had situations where I've disabled the entire cluster... and it worked, and I even felt on the mouse down, that someone was trying to make changes while he was disabled and I put forward a teling user message that them no change is possible.

    Now... I have added code, it'll make the updates on the value of the function from code LEDs now a serial connection. I am wanting to change the value of the LED (and possibly the other controls on the cluster) even if it is disabled.

    However, now when I click on the disabled so-called cluster... I can now change the value of the LED... as it is not off more, but the code for the Message of the user triggers always.

    Just to test things... I set the disabled property of 1 to 2... so it would be totally disabled and grayed out... THAT is not the case now... so, I'm stumped.

    My first thoughts were... may LV is the reactivation of some of its parts when I change programmatically a value of something is disabled on the Panel before... is this the case?

    Thank you

    Cayenne

    In a cluster when you update the value of a disabled control, it will be updated and you can read the value programmatically, but if the same command that you try to access it manually through the front side you can not access this similar case with the disabled grayed out property. So that you can understand the property is given to show the user that the control is in-accessible, but it will not be reactivated unless you change the disabled property of the control.

  • Adapter DLL: Name of the function change & params without unloading of the DLL

    Hello

    I use teststand adapters API to dynamically build a DLL call step. Each dll function is called through this subsequence "DLL Manager."

    Tried 2 methods (here is a summary of the code):

    1 ActiveX as follows:

    CommonCModule.ModulePath = myDllpath

    CommonCModule.FunctionName = myFunc (Note: this call unload the DLL previously loaded)

    Module-> LoadPrototype

    (to set the params)

    2 steps statement:

    RunState.Sequence.Main ["Call DLL function']. TS. SData.Call.LibPath = myDllpath

    RunState.Sequence.Main ["Call DLL function']. TS. SData.Call.Func = myFunc (Note: this is a step, but the info seems not be updated-online the new feature is called not properly)

    Module-> LoadPrototype

    (to set the params)

    The two methods is exactly the same behavior, but good for the 1st function I call a work or if I dump the dll after the execute step.

    However, is there a way to use these steps (or other) at stage configuration, but without unloading the DLL between each call. In my test sequence, I must OpenConnection with the object to be measured before starting my orders, as well as the dll should not be discharged to keep the connection open...

    for example

    (1) OpenConnection()-online this function takes the handle of communication with the device

    (2) myCommand1()

    (3) myCommand2()

    (4) CloseConnection()

    Thank you for the help

    C.

    If I understand your question, there are several ways to solve the problem. The easiest is to place a call to the dll before your loop that you never change programmatically. This step will then keep the loaded dll (if any stage that uses a dll is loaded, then the dll remains loaded. A dll is unloaded when all the steps that use it are unloaded.). Another option is to have just internally your call to the dll LoadLibrary on itself so that it is never unloaded. You then leave the process to unload the dll well. Another option is to add the code directly to the sequence that explicitly, charge and discharge your dll with the Win32 API LoadLibrary and FreeLibrary.

    That said, what you describe, if I understand correctly, looks like a very unusual use of TestStand. Looks like you use TestStand as a dll calling rather than as a sequencer and write your own sequencer above it instead. Have you thought to generate an entire sequence to run in teststand, rather than a step at a time? Basically, convert your test script in a TestStand sequence.

    Hope this helps,

  • Definition of series R Analog Input Mode programmatic

    I understand that the mode setting of analog input for 7854R series card can be made through the project manager (RIO Device setup)

    I would like to know if there is anyway we can do programmatically (as in the case of some cRIO modules HAVE).

    Hey,.

    No, you can not change programmatically. Right under the RIO device installation program.

  • Change camera vision Builder link attributes

    I have a Camera Link camera and a NI1427 Council. I need to change the shutter speed by program during an inspection. Is it possible to change the attributes of the Interior VBAI camera?

    I have seen a few examples for Firewire cameras and Camera Link cameras do not use IMAQdx, IMAQ simply. Is it possible to send commands to the camera inside VBAI? Is it possible to call a LabView VI that was to change the camera settings? Thanks for your help!

    Thanks for the input Brad. In fact, I realized another way to change the exposure through VBAI.

    It turns out that my camera camera (Sony XCL-5000) link has a mode in which the shutter speed can be controlled by a trigger pulse width.

    In IMAX, I changed the following attributes of the camera:

    Mode of operation-> pulse width

    Source of relaxation-> Camera Link

    Duration of exposure-> 7ms

    Then I put CC1 to "switch 0.

    In VBAI, I have configured step to acquire images at:

    Triggered-> checked image acquisition

    Trigger-> external 0 line

    -> Rising edge polarity

    I thought I'd be able to use the stage to generate impulses, but the width cannot be changed programmatically. So I use two measures of e/s of read/write with a time delay between the two. The first read/write IO affects 0 ane high external line that second place low. The value of the delay can be changed using a control variable. The pulse width resulting is probably not the most accurate, but it works for my application because I want to just increase the exposure when the picture is too dark and decreases when it is too bright.

  • change the push button for control or indicator at run time

    Hello

    I have a lamp that can turn into power according to the value of a Boolean variable.

    There are two ways in which I can control the lamp.

    (1) manual mode in which the button must be used as control to change the value of the Boolean variable.

    2 auto mode) in which the value of the variable is changed programmatically. Push button must return to an indicator to indicate the value of the Boolean variable.

    I should be able to swith bw manual and automatic mode for the duration and the push button should switch to control and indicator respectively.

    For those who might wonder why it's necessary: there is a sign which must be controlled in manual/auto mode. in manual mode, operator will manually use the buttons as controls for updating the control variables, in auto mode, my control algorithm updates the variables, and the Organizer must be able to see which button is pressed and when. If the button should be the control of update of variables in manual mode and must be the indicator of the evolution of the variables in auto mode.

    How is that possible?

    A basic VI with three objects are attached, and the Boolean control variable is global.

  • Update of Description@ADSAccount stuck in a loop.

    Whenever users change employment status, I'm wanting to update their field of Description@ADSAccount.  I modified the calculation of value model to try to achieve.  It should include the old value more added value for duty that I created.  The problem is it will insert the old default value, and then go into a loop with the custom value until it fills the field.  Here's a snippet of what I'm trying to do.

    If ($[IsLoaded]: Bool$) then
    If ($FK (UID_Person). $ IsTemporaryDeactivated:Bool = True) and (($FK (UID_Person). CustomProperty02$=Connection.GetConfigParm("Custom\HR\EmployeeStatus\LeaveOfAbsence")) or ($FK (UID_Person). CustomProperty02$=Connection.GetConfigParm("Custom\HR\EmployeeStatus\PaidLeaveOfAbsence"))) then
    ("Value = $ $Description &"-"& Connection.GetConfigParm("Custom\AD\AttributesTemplates\AccountDisabledDescription ") &" "& Date.Today
    End If

    The loop occurs, because you have a self-reference on $Desciription$ in the template. As long as the changes of the description, the model will be called.

    Replace the $ $Description with value. This should solve the problem. Value always contains the current value of the column in the model code.
