Do I need a fieldbus Configurator software?

Beginning of I m to learn more about the Fieldbus Foundation and I'd like to develop a simple Visual Basic application to automate the calibration of analog input of fieldbus instrument, for example, set with a standard 1 Volt in the analog input of fieldbus instrument and read the value displayed by the instrument using the API OR-FBUS and my Visual Basic program.

Do I have to buy a NOR-Configurator of this network of simple fieldbus H1 with a single field device and and NI USB-8486 interface?

It s is not clear to me if I need a Configurator, for example, with a new instrument of Fieldbus needing to adjust some parameters with NOR-Configurator before using the API OR-FBUS Communications Manager in my Visual Basic program.

I've seen a few old messages that you want to sell a Configurator API. Do you still sell this API?

My intention, if possible, is to build an application that does not require installation of a fieldbus Configurator software.

NOR-FBUS software consists of two components, Communications Manager (CM) and Configurator.

CM provides a basic API for access to the network of FF.  You can create your own application of Fieldbus Foundation with the API.

Configurator is a graphical tool to long for the full configuration. You don't need to build the application.

CM (VB, VC, c#, VB.Net) APIs supports the following Basic configuration tasks.

-The list interface, device, function blocks

-Block/playback device tag

-Read and write parameters by name or index

-Read the alert data and trend

I think that the APIs are not enough for your simple VB application.

You may need to use the Configurator if you need the following features.

-Get and set the device address

-Put the tag block/device

-Configurator and download Application Block function annex

    Hello

    It would be unwise to try to start without antivirus/antispyware are has just too many real threats and
    methods for malware to attack the system. If you attempt to do if of course you have redundant and
    current backups.

    Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
    launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
    reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leave the file system, Web,.
    Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
    right of IE)

    Two versions of Avast are available 6.x and 4.8 x

    Avast - home - free - 6.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
    Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
    Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
    Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
    disabled - click OK
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

    Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
    and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
    Finish those you don't use).
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

    Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

    Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
    programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
    or use Google to see how to remove.
    http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
    http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp  <-->

    Choice of PCmag editor - Prevx-
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
    would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
    (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
    never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

    If, as you say, they are completely separate installations on separate hard disks, each with there own version of PS for example, there should be no way that they could interfere with each other! I assume you are using a form any of Boot Manager to load a specific version of Mac OS x?

    I did something similar at the start in a similar situation with client compatibility and not had a problem with either interfere with others!

    However, you share the programs somehow between different OS, so that would be another matter.

    What is your system brand and model?

    Do you have any type of RAID configuration with your hard drives?

    Do you experience a system crash and blue screen of death (BSOD)?

    If you are experiencing a BSOD, you think people AVAST is going to help you with this?

    Don't you think that your system has some malicious software on it?

    If you think you have an infection and can always go on the Internet, I scan with other software first, then see if you still have a problem with the configuration of the memory dump and if you do, then fix it.

    Of course things should work, but it makes no sense to try to fix something on a system where malware can hide.  Malware will sometimes afflict the debugging tools and options on your system that you can use to find and remove it.

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:

    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
    Restart your computer and solve the outstanding issues.
    Just to review, here's what your settings should look like for a partial memory (usually suffixient for troubleshooting the BSOD) image:
    Right click my computer, properties, advanced, startup and recovery settings.
    In the system failure section:
    Put a check mark in the box "write an event to the system log.
    Put a check mark in the box "send an administrative alert.
    Uncheck 'automatically restart '.
    In the Write debugging information section select:
    Partial dump (64 KB)
    Set the directory small dumpster:
    %SystemRoot%\Minidump
    Click OK, OK.
    Restart your computer.
    If you see a BSOD and want to see if you can fix, follow these steps:
    Here's a BSOD example showing information you provide:
    Send for the nose and the Red arrows (3 to 4 lines total).
    Send all * line STOP message since there are clues in the 4 parameters.
    Ignore the boring text unless it seems important to you.  We know what a BSOD looks like, we need to know what your BSOD looks like.
    Download BlueScreenView here:
    Unzip it and run it (BSV installs nothing) and let him complete the digitization of all your crash dump files.
    If you double-click on depressed, you will get information on it (including the field caused by the driver) and you should be able to spot the problem right away - especially if you see a model in landfills where Caused by field pilot is the same (beginning with this driver).
    Select (highlight) one or more of the most recent dump files by clicking on them and hold down the CTRL key to select multiple files.  Try to select only the most recent links that relate to your problem (perhaps five or six to start dump files).
    Click on file, save selected items and save information from the dumps to a text file on your desktop called BSOD.txt
    .  Open BSOD.txt with a text editor, copy the text and paste it in your next reply.
    Here's an example of report ASB to a single BSOD I initiated on purpose that indicates the cause of the accident as the pilot i8042prt.sys belonging to Microsoft Corporation:

  • Need help with the disks 'unreadable' configuring software raid after the death of the startup disk and system restored.

    I'm looking for some advice on how to restore a windows xp installation software raid 5 that was running on my XP system. I had a problem when the startup disk has failed, but I was able to backup the system before it can. I replaced the drive and restored the system and everything came, but I was not smart to do this and accidently left the readers connected when restoring raid. I don't know if windows has done something when I tried to install XP on the new drive, or maybe something else has happened when I restored the system from the backup, but my raid drives can not be used. There was a moment in the restaurant business I saw a message on the MBR, but I thought that was just for the drive being restored. I didn't have a single player who held any information on the other disks in the system, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

    When the system boots the windows logo screen takes 10-20 minutes before you get on the desktop. Windows Disk Manager takes 20-30 minutes to fill the list of drives and status on the disks three raid is 'dynamic' and 'unreadable' is not reassuring. I suspect it's a problem MBR or partition table that must be corrected before trying to reactive the raid, but this is just speculation.

    The raid drives are on a promise ide/scsi disk and make it appear to start correctly with names and sizes. After that I get nothing. I do not have another scsi controller (or), but I thought I'd try active @ partition recovery to see if she can find information on the disks.

    I hope someone has some experience with recovery like this, because this is a first for me. I thought I was pretty sure running a raid-5, but wouldn't you know, the tech gods have found a way to crush my plans...

  • Need help to configure the VLAN on a powerconnect 5448

    Hello world

    I am currently working on 2 switches PowerConnect 5448 but I'm completely lost in configuring VLAN.

    My bow:

    My needs are:

    -J' have 2 different networks that need to be isolated in different VLANS

    -I want to port 11-14 to use for network backup, all others must be used for the production network.

    -This 2 networks must pass through the port 48 (fiber)

    How can I configure this kind of network on the powerconnect interface (or via telnet)?

    My understood are the following, I have to create 2 different VLAN tag all ports, switch to safe mode all ports of the entitlement each port to the VLAN voted. Am I wrong?

    How the fiber port?

    Thanks in advance for your help on this matter.

    Since your 2 VLAN need not communicate with each other, you should be able to get this working.

    The easiest way to do this would be to have your production on VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 second network.

    Assign an IP address to the switch with the command IP #.

    Assign a default gateway with the # ip default-gateway command.

    Create a VLAN 2:

    Database console (config) # vlan

    Console (config - vlan) # vlan 2

    Set 11-14 ports to access the mode for VLAN 2

    Console # switchport mode access

    Console # switchport access vlan 2

    Set 48 on trunk or general mode ports.

    Console # switchport mode Trunk

    console # permit trunk switchport vlan add 2

    You should get pretty close to a work environment. You may encounter some problem with VLAN 2 contacting 192.168.1.0, maybe just need to put it up and test.
