Digital start and stop trigger with restart HW

Hello

I am trying to write a program that reads continually samples based on the rise and fall of a digital triggering.  I want the measure to start on the front of the trigger and stop on the falling edge of the trigger.  I want the data that are read to be preserved and then added with the next set of data that the trigger rises again.  I have read the tutorial "Digital start and stop trigger" and can use the reference to stop the measurement process and I looked at the example "Acq & chart voltage - Int Clk - HW Trig restarts ' that comes with LabVIEW and I can get the two of them working separately with my request.  I'm quite confused however try to put the two together (see attachment).

If I put a "Start.vi" icon inside the while loop then I get an error "you can do this while the measure is still ongoing".  If I put it out of the loop and then the process only runs once.  I tried to put a loop structure case for restart only if necessary, but this has produced another error which the source escapes me.  Is there a standard way to do this and if so someone can point me in the direction of an example?

See you soon,.

I think that in this situation, it would be preferable to use a Pause trigger.  You can use the break to stop the acquisition when the trigger was low and start when the trigger is high.  In this way, served only for the duration of your trigger pulse.  I've attached a screenshot of a VI that illustrates this principle in action.

  • DAQmx: set up a digital acquisition continues with start and stop trigger

    Hi all

    I write because I can not find a solution to my problem.

    As written in the title, I just want to do an continuous (continuous sampling) a digital line. The fact that it's a digital line instead of an analog is no big deal, I guess. I want to start the acquisition on a rising edge of digital trigger (PFI0 for example) and stop acquisition on a trigger too (forehead down on the same signal (PFI0 even then) or a new front amount). This way I could precisely control the time of acquisition or of the start or stop other devices.

    Since this is a digital acquisition, you need to do first "something": create a fictitious analog input task and get the clock back to the digital input. I setting this analogue of the task to start on a trigger. It works but I can't find a way to stop it on another trigger.

    Do u hav no idea how to implement it?

    Finally I have not found an easy way to break cautiously the VI to wait for a trigger (in case you want to start an acquisition with different settings for example). Do you use the task to Abort or is it better to set a deadline to playback digital channel VI until the outbreak occurs?

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you

    Hi Chris,

    One way is to use counters as Kevin described. For me, it's usually easier to create the dummy task that has the timing engine (as I HAVE), but it depends on what resource you have on your board you will not need .

    In fact, the example is the same thing that you need to measure continues - just what you need to do is remove the counter part and replace the trigger reference to be external (your stop trigger).

    with this approach, you should be able to do the continuous measurement - I noticed that you need DI - in fact with few changes you should be able to use this example. DI does not have its own timing engine, that's why you should use the external sample clock. If we use the example to create dummy HAVE to provide the sample clock, and we start DI task until we start to HAVE fake, then we can get pretty much continuous clock which begins start trigger and stop the trigger of reference.

    Take a look in the change - once again, I have not tested, but logic seems to be OK.

    with sincere friendships.

  • Free version of ESXi can support for configuration of start and stop virtual machines via vSphere Client?

    I have read and found some documents on ESXi.

    According to the documents, I know that ESXi free version does not support some advanced virtual machine configurations and does not support write to ESXi host permission. But when I download ESXi from vmware.com, I can't find the free version. He will always be a trial of the licensed version edition because I can always do the configuration of start and stop virtual machines via vSphere Client installation. I can also run scripts (lamw) pl in vMA to stop the ESXi host (authorization to write ok?)

    Then I confused. How can I get the really free version of ESXi? Or will the free version after 60 days of evaluation?

    Start/stop above configuration is in vSphere Client via 'Configuration'-> "start/stop VM"-> "Properties"... «-> "Allow the virtual computers start and stop automatically with the system" actions setting and stop virtual machines can be configured to "comments"turn off computer"or"Suspend".» Can any body tell me if it's supported by ESXi free edition?

    Is the free version of vSphere Client too? Because when I use the vSphere Client, he told me that I have 60 days of evaluation. This confused me again. I think that vSphere Client is always free, am I right?

    Any suggestion or advice is much appreciated.  _

    Micky

    Configuration of start and stop virtual machines is available with the free version and licensed, with the free version you would be configured everything via vSphere Client, where as with a licensed version, you can optionally use scripts to configure it and also issue restarts/stops using scripts.

    Second, shutdownHostViaSOAPAPICall.pl for the version licensed and free of ESX (i), this script will work in both free and licensed because it uses direct SOAP calls emulating the vSphere Client communication. Take a look at the documentation for details, but this of course is not supported by VMware.

  • Satellite A200-1FL: cooler starts and stops every minute only with battery

    Hello.

    I just bought an A200-1FL and I test these days. I noticed that the cooler starts and stops every minute about when I use it only with the battery.

    Disconnected from the power, even if I do not have too much, just browse the Internet. Is this normal?

    If I work with trendy food, the cooler makes no noise.

    Thank you.

  • Start and stop Virtual Machines with the system

    Hello

    In a server cluster @vcenter HA/DRS 5.1, I enabled start and stop virtual machines with the system option but after I checked two days later, he is off again somehow. What makes this option off? I had a power failure in the datacenter. vCenter server has not been upward. I started all of the ESXi servers manually then went all VMs account is declining. I want that they start automatically when server ESXi upward.

    Thanks in advance,

    Thank you. This option is more valid than if the hosts are part of an HA Cluster license. I suspect that you configured through the traditional vSphere Client and that it is a bug with this client. If you try with the new vSphere Web Client, you will find a notice that it is disabled and there is no button "Edit".

  • Need help with keyframes for start and stop an effect

    I use a mask and blurred for a few seconds. I understand that I must use keyframes to indicate when to start and stop this effect in the video, so that the same area is not trimmed for video full.

    The problem is, I can't find help by correctly setting the keyframes. When I opened the menu keyframes in the effect, it seems that I must together for both the mask took and the blur effect. I did... to start and stop at specific times, but the rest indeed throughout the video, so of course miss me something by using keyframes. The manual to create effects is not useful. I need assistance with keyframes as what I'm doing is clearly not working. Help!

    If the mask does not move that you don't have to set the keyframe. For the blur, click the stopwatch next to 'bluriness' add keyframes as below, the Reds don't blur and blue those maximum blur this fade effect.

  • iOS 10 times to start and stop the music messed up

    I'm running a SE 64 GB iPhone with iOS 10. Many songs from my iTunes library has some moments of power, but after update, they are all mixed. Songs don't start or stop when they're supposed to, or they're going to start and stop at a random time, which is annoying. The same problem was in the beta, causing me to backup on iOS 9. I assumed that this bug would be fixed in the final version. All the solutions in addition to remove and re - download my library?

    Hello Carnage1215,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community Support from Apple. I understand your music has had some problems and I want to help him. By the sounds of things that your songs start may be delayed or in the middle of the piece, is that correct?

    Before you make too much trouble shooting, it's a good idea to make a backup of your iPhone If you don't have it already. If you do not know how to save your phone from this article will guide you in the process: the backup of your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    Once you have made a backup, I would recommend to reset all the settings on your iPhone. This will ensure that all old data of a version of iOS parameter are removed and reset default. This removes all data and applications, photos or contacts, but it removes all of your preferences for the Wi - Fi, Bluetooth, do not disturb, Notifications, general, sounds, contact ID, brightness & paper painted and privacy, then you may need to define these things upwards after this reset.

    Do this please go to settings > general > reset > reset all settings.

    If you always use the same behavior after you restart your phone, please inform the community. We are all here to help.
    Best regards.

  • Records of Vista Media Center starts and stops at the wrong time

    I use Windows Vista Home Premium, SP1 and that you may have noticed that when I schedule recordings for some a particular channel, Media Center starts 2 minutes beforehand and ends 2 minutes in advance.  This affects only shows record from my local affiliate Fox - all other shows for other strings start and stop at the appropriate time.

    I checked the system clock with the start times of the shows and both are correct.  In fact, I saw one day Media Center started to record for a show that did not begin until 08:00 at 19:58 (according to the system time).  I had my TV on at the same time and was able to verify that the program in question had not yet begun, so the flow of the internet was sychned with the dissemination of local transmission.

    It's very frustrating because I miss the end of some shows and cannot always extend registration ends because I'm ordering another channel, the next hour.

    I have the same problem with the FOX network...

    -1 make sure your clock automaticly sets in the internet and update once by pressing the link (which makes that he can see the time server)...

    There are two ways you can go with this:

    -If your departure time is correct, then just go to the Planner and choose the program (or series) you are trying to install, select the recording settings (or adjustment of series) or advanced setting... There is an option to "stop recording" 1 min, 2 min, 3 min, 5 min, until 2 hours after the recording is finished... I have mine set to 5 minutes after, and she fixed it...

    -If the starting time is disabled (as mine is), to enter ERM and manuver to tasks > settings > TV > recorder > recorder defaults

    This is where you define all the flaws of the recorder, find "Start when possible" and "Stop when possible", 4 min value (max allows MCE)... Save and exit, restart the machine too...

    You should be good to go...

    PS, I just read the last sentence in your post, you must only have a tv tuner card in your machine (I have two, and that's the reason why I bought two), so you can always have a problem when recording two different channels (back to back on the same channel should work okay).

  • Complete noob - would like to measure the voltage to manual start and stop

    I'm looking for someone to point me in the right direction

    Installation program:

    Windows8 office

    Visual Studio 2013

    NI 6255 PCI data acquisition card

    Block connection OR SCB-68

    What I want to do:

    I want to write a console application to measure the voltage on the signal ai16

    -I want to be able to start and stop the application manually

    -I want to be able to pressure measured in a CSV output.

    Where I am:

    I compiled and ran the example "NOR-DAQ\Examples\DAQmx ANSI C\Analog In\Measure voltage.

    It is said that I have "collected" samples but I don't know what that means, as I do not see an output file...

    What I don't understand:

    Samples - I do not understand cela or know even where to start

    How can output file - I get the file to save the collected data.

  • I want cRIO to start and stop the acquisition by push physical button on the cRIO, is this possible?

    When you use my cRIO 9024 on the ground, I prefer to be able to start and stop the acquisition with pressing a physical button on cRIO.

    I want to say I don't want it to be "as a start-up," I don't want cRIO to start the acquisition as soon as the power supply is ensured.

    Is this possible?

    Hi Cashany,

    you will surely find this switch status. But there are easier ways (but more expensive) for a button. Fiddling with a pen or a small screwdriver to switch USER1 is not what I call "user friendly"...

    -You have at least 2 voltage inputs on your module available. Use a switch voltage on the power inputs. Use a 'real' button!

    -You have an available serial port. You can set some pins on GND or voltage and check their status inside the cRIO/RT target...

  • Start and stop a loop automatically subtracted at each iteration

    Hello

    I know that there are some topics about this, but I couldn't find any solution, especially because I'm using version 7.1 and cannot open files from new version.

    My problem is the following:

    I need to load a tank of 6 to 10 in the morning, every day for 3 days. The process should start and stop automatically, which means, no funds to start or stop. Start and stop conditions come from time.

    I start with a big loop of 72 iterations, which is 72 hours.

    The tank must start at level 6, whenever he starts.

    After the departure, 1 unit must be subtracted to each iteration. That means, that the tank is level 10, at 06:00 07:00 level 9 and so on. At the end of the day, at 10:00 the fill level is equal to 2.

    The next day, the process must start again and the tank must start at level 6.

    Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    Hi Florian.

    Thank you for your message. That solved this problem, but in fact my VI did not work as I wanted.

    I created a new one, with and an external file from 1 to 24, repeat 3 times. Now I got it. Maybe there is a better way to do it, but it works now. Thanks for all the help. I appreciate a lot.
