Conversion of a relative time counter
Hello! I have a pretty simple question, if someone has a moment. I have a while loop with a 1000ms wait inside, as well as some other stuff that is not relevant to the question. Since my incrementer essentially account seconds due to the presence of the 1000ms wait, I would take the built in incrementer (i) and use it to display the relative time elapsed since the while loop began. This loop will run for 3 hours, so I would like to display in hh: mmS format. So basically, I'm looking for a way to convert the meter in a time value. Any thoughts? I know that the wait function is not exactly accurate, but that's ok. I don't need to be 100% accurate in this vi. Just a rough estimate will be fine. Looks like there should be a relatively simple way to do this, but I can't understand it... Thank you!!
Well, I just noticed a difference between 8.5 and 8.6. With 8.6, I put the relative time display format. Other that that, I don't know what would cause it to run backwards. Your postal code.

Hello Al B,
I figure out the solution to the question
using hour: mm:s or H:mm:s, both work.
Could you elaborate what difference should normally be the '%'?

Reset relative time of graphic waveform
Hi all
I created a table of wavefrom which starts from a relative time of 00:00:00 at the start of the vi and visualize that the waveform versus time since the start of the vi.
I made this using an example that I found in the forums or by subtracting right now relative to the relative time of the waveform, as shown in the attached diagram
When I stop the vi and start it again normally it starts from scratch and so on.
the problem I want to the table in order to start from scratch each amount fixed time (ex: 50 seconds) and does not need to stop the vi and restart it in order to start from scratch back!
I thought a lot about how proceed for many and I tried many things but I could not, have an idea on how to do?
I feel that the solution will be simple to many people, but please forgive me coz I'm new to labview and its my first project with her
Thanks in advance,

First of all thanks a lot for your answer.
I just that explain how can I replace this tunnel with a shift register, where the sr will be data, coz the 'Get current date and time' is in fact placed out of the loop, also how I can change this value to a structure of housing, I'll put the 'get date and time' in a loop or in a business structure? coz I actually tried in ways that looks like that, but it did not work.
I would appreciate a lot if you showed me what you mean by a schema or on the actuall vi that I fixed to the Terminal.
Thanks in advance

I reserve this type of service to my paying customers.
I would turn around and invite YOU to post a picture of what you have tried and let us comment based on your efforts.
I'll help you get started with two suugestions and a question.
(1) you can click the tunnel entry and select 'replace with shift register.
(2) If you look at your code in execution, highlighting mode, you can see data comes and goes when.
Now for your question!
After I look at the code to run where it will take another "Get time" node should be located to obtain a new value, WHILE the loop is running?
As I said, post advise images of what you're trying to do and offer us on this basis.

Convert relative time in absolute
Hello
I want to convert my string of relative time in a channel of absolute time. How this could be done?
My relative time string has the format 01/01/00 12:29:17.9120 depending on whether I just want to generate the digital absolute time string.
Thank you
Never mind found.
All I had to do was to change the display format for the time string in the menu time to Numeric property.

How can I get the string value displayed on a digital control defined for the relative time.
I have a digital potentiometer to display relative time in increments of 30 minutes.
I want to record the value displayed on the control string. Unfortunately, when I use the "convert to decimal string.vi" number, the resulting string is just the value in seconds.
How can I get the value as a string? (for example 01:30 for an hour and thirty minutes)
Thank you
Sean
Hi Sean.C!
M_Peeker's suggestion is a good thing. A stage that could clarify things is that you must set the % t <%H:%M> format string entry.

Cannot set control schedule relative time
Hi all
I'm pretty new to LabVIEW, and I'm trying to set a time stamp time related. I put the control on the form, and then right-click and choose the display format. I have chosen Date unused, advanced editing. The control has a box with this in it:
% <%H:%M:%S> T
after I change the T t a bit big, the valid indicator lights in red. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you, < br / > Simon
The timestamp command allows only to absolute time format. You can use a normal digital for relative time (which can also display absolute time, but not vice versa).

Is that after effects remove a real-time counter or a logo of a video network?
Not automatically. Your question tells me that you don't know much about After Effects. According to the shooting you can be able to clone a solution that seems normal, but most likely you will have to just cover with another graphic.
Your question also makes me wonder if you push not copyright a little more.
If you're new to AE so the option of replacement of cloning or background will probably take you a few days to learn how to do this successfully.

Hi people,
I have a time stamp for events like a "changetime" column in a table. In my iReport, I would like to call 'changetime' as a relative time, like "20 seconds ago", "5 minutes ago" or "there are 40 days". How can I do this for an iReport?
Thank you
MeI would like to call 'changetime' as a relative time, like "20 seconds ago", "5 minutes ago" or "there are 40 days". How can I do this for an iReport?
There is a predefined for this by their SUMMIT format mask. Should be the last option in the number/Date Format popup LOV in column definition properties.
If the changetime is actually a column of type TIMESTAMP , then this might not work, so convert the value of the column in the query to a DATE:
cast(changetime as date)
The actual function used for this is apex_util.get_since(p_date date) return VARCHAR2 type if you want to experiment, but using the number/Date Format would be the preferred approach.

Hello expertsl,
I have a new challenge on board.
I have a form that is automatically popped up. Now on the form, I need to insert a timer as soon as it comes out, the timer starts and then I have to enter some data in the form and as soon as I press save button, the timer records the time count and then stores it in a table.
Any suggestions are welcome...
Thank youAs Hoek said, this is not a forum of Forms .
However, the problem is not really unique Forms and a timer itself is not necessary.
A timer is a kernel object that fires at regular intervals each time around executes a callback routine. This allows to update or treat at specific intervals.
You don't need a timer you are interested elapsed time - which means that on the creation of the form, you need to get the current time. When the user clicks the Save button you get again right now. The data you are interested in is the time difference between these two.
Don't forget that timers are objects dear to create ito the kernel resources. Some operating systems limit the total number of timers that can be created. In general, it is not a good idea to create a timer unless it is the best technical solution to the problem. And you don't need a timer to determine a period of time. You just need the code in the constructor of the form and the code in the record of the events of the form. Nothing more.

In Labview 8.5, I want the x axis to display the time elapsed the data collection relating to when the data collection was started. When I put the property at the time of parent, it shows a large number of seconds (see attached jpg)?
Thank you
Azim
As mentioned, Kiki
Use "Build Waveform.vi" and set the property to "t0" to zero. If you have a table of waveforms, pass it in automatic indexing of loop for so you can do it at each waveform in the table.

Timer counter to calculate the amount of liquid dosage
I have a simple program of command VICI pump more interface series.
The problem for me is that I need to see the amount of liquid dosed. I based it on 'elapsed time' express vi.
But unfortunately it works the way I need. When I press the start of pump, it starts counting time and in a result of the liquid volume. When I press stop volume stops, but when I press Start pump once again as he continues the volume not the moment I stopped, but given the time elapsed since the first departure.
I know that it is because the elapsed time is still running. I couldn't find a way to break it.
Is there a way around it?
I'm using LabView 8.6.
Sergey,
When you press Stop, the VI stops running. Are your referring to set up the Run on False switch?
I put the volume (ml Injected?) on a register to shift and add the amount distributed to each iteration. The calculation would be based time yet incremental time rather than total elapsed time.
I don't think there is a direct way to interrupt the past Time.vi. You can store the difference between time and elapsed time in a shift register when you enter the mode pause and then use this difference as the new time target when you restart.

TDMS of MDF time stamp conversion error / storage date time change
I fought it for a while, I thought I'd throw it out there...
Let's say I have a file TDMS which has a channel of labview time stamp and thermocouple 2.
I load in DIADEM, I get this:
Perfect! But now let's say I want to save the PDM as a MDF file so I can see him in Vector sofa. I right click and save as MDF, perfect. I started couch and get this:
The year 2121, yes I take data on a star boat! It seems to be taking the stamp of date/time storage TDMS as starting point and adding the TC_Timestamp channel.
If I change the channel of TC_Timestamp to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 etc... and save as MDF, I get this:
Very close, 2012! But what I really want is what to show of the time, it was recorded what would be the 10/09/2012.
The problem is whenever I do like recording, date storage time is updated right now, then the MDF plugin seems to use it as a starting point.
is it possible to stop this update in TIARA?
Thank you
Ben
Hi Ben,
You got it right that the MDF use written the time of storage to start MDF that is updated by DIAdem when writing time. We are working on this and will return to you, if there is no progress.
To work around the problem, you can try convert TDMS MDF in LabVIEW storage vis.
Something like the following, you can write your start time of measurement to the MDF file.
Hope this helps,

Original title: WMP 11 continues to stop audio playback
I use WMP 11 for months with no reading problems but since yesterday evening he continues to stop for about 20 seconds every five minutes or so. When she did this, WMP freezes - meter reading and time to gel and I get the hourglass - and then after 20 seconds or more, the trail starts from where it stops. What is happening on all the tracks I did not play a single. I tried 20 audio files (mp3 all) through a dozen different albums. In addition, the gap between tracks seem longer than usual. I feel that it is looking for the data and playback stops because the time it takes to find the data is longer than the amount of data he has for playback? Either way, my files are stored on an external drive, and I'm now ask to update WMP for 'monitor folders' once again.
I also downloaded a new copy of WMP 11 but this has not fixed the problem.
I ran Fix It from Microsoft, but it has not to report any issue so I'm stumped. Any help appreciated thanks.
Laptop Dell Inspiron 1300
Windows XP SP 3
WMP 11 - updates enabled
Active Windows updates
MSE firewall on / updates enabledRegistry fixers never used because they can damage the file system!
Thank you, Anoop - I notice that it is 7 - t - it too much work for XP? I'll take a look, although I found closure and restart toured (as far as the burning problem goes). Thanks for your help.
