Effective way to change the values of control?

Hello

I've been using LabVIEW a little by chance to work for the last two years and have read at least a number of times that there is generally a better way to use local Variables.

In this case, I have a configuration file with 10 different digital controls for different levels of power and frequency. By choosing a ring of text I want to automatically populate the values of 'default' for these digital commands for each value of the ring of text data.

The way that I implement now is that I just a structure dealing with multiple values. Based on the value selected in the ring of text I load 10 constants in ten local variable references.

Is there an easier and more efficient way to do?

Thank you

Steven

For me it seems to be 'the' valid approach.

References can offer more flexibility, but suffer from performance degradation. Performance will not be a problem for the 10 digits, only if you place large paintings (a typical graph with 100 points, you can see the loss of performance).

Only a terminal is faster than the local (assuming you need display the value, if not of course just use a wire). Some exotic use Val Set control invoke note showed a very good area, but I think it's a little too code for just initialization of controls.

  • Changing the values of control over a key

    Hi, I have a situation where I have several digital controls where you can change to different values. I have also several subVIs with references to control (as described in this article: http://labviewwiki.org/Control_References) that takes in the references to these digital commands on the mainVI. These subVIs permanently read values into their own net.

    So whenever I change a value on any of the controls, the values change of course in the subVIs, since they refer to the value of the control.  How I would do the actual value change that once I clicked the ok button?

    To illustrate this, I've done a VI with a structure of the event and another while that continoulsy reads a reference to the control and updats loop indicator. I see some heavy solutions, while I have two controls for each value. The second control would then be hidden and written only in the case of the Ok button, press. But having two controls to do something simple, like this seems superfluous.


  • How can I change the values of control based on a file of reading?

    I understand that the controls were only outputs and indicators has only entries, but I'm looking for help to create code that has the capabilities of both. More specifically and, ideally, my façade would allow the user to select an old spreadsheet file to read, and these values of the worksheet would be poster. The user could then change these values to their liking and then submit those twisted values, such as a new file / replaces the old/etc. The important part is the the indicating and control playback in values.

    Thank you

    Need to wire the worksheet values in the local.  The control itself just watches.  What you have wired in your VI sets the control to its current value (of course, a bit pointless).

  • Is there a way to change the values of the expression by the keyframe?

    I use an expression of rebound/go-around on the position of an element of animation property.  On the major movements, I want the value of higher rebound-, but on smaller movements I want not so dramatic.  It seems that the expression is independent of the keyframe - and if change a variable in the expression it changes it for the entire timeline - vs just some keyframes.  Is this possible?

    You can also use ExpressionTimeline to combine multiple instances of your expression with different parameters. #

  • How to change the value of the Application for all users?

    Hi, I work on Apex 3.2.1.00.12 which is installed on a database of Oracle 10 g Enterprise Edition Release 10.1.0.5.0

    I'll explain my problem... At the beginning of the application, the user choose a year, each year can have 3 status and based on the State to restrict or grant access to certain tabs, pages and options. I put the status of the year selected in an Application element and then I just use an authorization scheme to check if the user can access pages or options.

    The problem is that if the administrator changes the status of the current year (for example, 1-2), users who are currently in the application will have access to the options of the State 1, instead of the State 2 options. is there a way to change the value of this element for all users?

  • Is it possible to change the values of particular #define of the various controls in CVI.

    In my application, I have different panels to file single .uir. When I save the .uir file, I get the same values of #define for different controls in different panels. For this reason, I am not able to use these #defines block switch. Is it possible to change the values of #define according to my condition.

    Hi, a little more Wolfgang post. It is the combination of the Panel to manage and control the unique ID: as you know, you can load the same panel more than once, so even if you recover the full chain of PANEL_CONTROL you have duplication. items that exactly identifies a particular control in a particular group are the combination control panel manage AND panel_control ID.

    On the one hand which guarantees more flexibility to your application, you can design only a few panels and reuse them whenever you want, even having some of them loded several times in the same instant. On the other hand, as you have discovered, there is the possibility (Finally, almost certain) duplicated in your app ID.

    To resolve the problem of duplicated IDS you can act in two ways:

    1. If you know that no Panel is never loaded several timer in your application, you can retrieve the name of constant of Panel with GetPanelAttribute (panelHandle, ATTR_CONSTANT_NAME, string); and to distinguish between the name of constant, then switch between control ID

    2. If you happen to have duplicate panels you will need to store each panelHandles in the non-volatile variables, switch between them and then switch between the control ID

    An alternative might be to use Panel callbackData attribute and assign a significant value during the loading of the Panel, other callbackData finally from a control ID. Something like this:

    Loading panels:

    panelHandle = LoadPanel (0, "myfile.uir", PANEL1);

    SetPanelAttribute (panelHandle, ATTR_CALLBACK_DATA, (void *) 1);   Assign different callbackData in each instance

    During the failover between controls:

    void * cbkd;

    GetPanelAttribute (panelHandle, ATTR_CALLBACK_DATA, &cbkd);)
    Switch (cbkd (int)) {}
    case 1: / / elements of the PANEL1
    switch (command) {}
    case PANEL1_NUMERIC:

    your code here
    break;
    case PANEL1_STRING:
    your code here
    break;
    }
    break;
    case 2:
    // .....
    break;
    }

    One final note: it seems to me that all this is necessary in a very limited situation, where you have the same callback called on various panels/controls. Whenever the reminder is unique to a specific panel or controls on a single panel you don't need to work that way.

  • Can I change the values of the variables in the variables view control?

    I want to use the variables view control in Labview. I see only the values, but I can't change the values or create new Variables. Will there be a chance to do?
    I use Labview 8.6.1 and Teststand 4.1.1.

    You must activate the edit mode for the ApplicationMgr, by setting ApplicationMgr.IsEditor to true. Note that you must have at least the license of the custom editor for teststand so that it works (otherwise it will prompt the user to activate a license with these privileges).

    Hope this helps,

  • How can I change the value of a control on front panel?

    On the front panel, I'm doing a complex control that consists of a Slider control and control of the digital inputs. Both controls display the same information and either may be used for entry. When changing value, I want the other control to display the same value.

    How can I change the value of a control on front flap when another control changes the value? I know how to use a structure of the event to detect value has changed, but I do not know how to impose control on front panel to change its value in the block diagram.

    Why do you not use a digital display on the slider, and no code is required:

  • How to change the value of string clustered, to implement using the node value of property instead of writing directly on the flow of data or using the variable

    new to labview :-) and I have a problem when I want to change the value of a string in bunches, and I want to implement this using the node value of property instead of writing directly to the stream or by using the variable, enclosed is the picture.   No matter, I have change in cluster (control) or value of Popery out (indicator) cluster, the value (sensor 7) dataflow keeps unchanged even I gave the new value by value of property node. Thank you to give me some advice about this.

    Hi GerdW

    Thanks a lot for your answer. The reason I'm stubbornly tring to break the flow of DATA is: we have a test system that have about 100 screws, they have a few connected flow, some of them will be unbundling a cluster dataflow chain to check the value in order to make the different cases.  Now I want to insert user event by changing the control and influential cases during run time.

    As I initially uses a global variable (to control cases) instead of unbundle string data flow, it works well.  But then, I found there are a lot of screws that are using the string unbundle.  One of the 'lazy' means, I tried is to change the value via the property node (because that way, I did not need to find all the places where using the unbundle string and replace them with the global variable), then I noticed a problem with "dataflow", the value in the stream of cluster in fact will not be changed by changing the value of the property node.

    I did a test with VI simple (like the picture in last post), and after reading your advice, I tell myself that I need to understand the concept of "DATAFLOW" in labview, it seems that my "lazy" way can not work in this scenario.

    I have attached the criterion VI here, have you furthur suggestions on what I can do in this case?

    Mant thanks!

  • Change the values of the cluster in while loop and in the face at the same time

    Hello.

    I have a little problem in a test program, that I'm working on. I'll try to simplify as much as possible. I have a cluster control that contains two controls A and B. I want to:

    1. switch to update the value of the command A a while loop
    2. allow the user to change the value of the B control through the face, while the loop is running

    To change the value of order in the while loop, I first get the cluster control cluster, update the value of the control for a way to group by name and finally rewrite the cluster in the cluster control.

    The problem is that if the user changes the value of the B control while control that is in the middle of the update, the new value of B control is lost because it was read before updating in the face. Is there a way to get around this?

    DennisBengs wrote:

    1. switch to update the value of the command A a while loop
    2. allow the user to change the value of the B control through the face, while the loop is running

    Then they do not belong in the same cluster.  They are disconnected obviously enough that they do not go hand in hand.

    Where it can get really complicated, it is that you're talking about the user and code changing the same cluster.  It is very dangerous and very difficult to manage.  You might be able to get there with a driving force.  But walk slightly, my friend.

  • Changing the values of the project

    Summary

    Here change the link reference and report Suite fields or be able to migrate all between projects. Lack of one of these options, I want to know that the values of these fields don't really count.

    Example values:

    Basic reference: link Analytics: report Suite
    DPS 2014 Appcom.mycompany.MyAppcom.mycompany.MyApp
    AEM Mobile Appcom.mycompany.myappdevcom.mycompany.myappdev

    The correct values have been changed to protect the innocent.

    Details

    Currently, we had weeks of progress by creating a new application AEMM to replace our DPS 2014 application. The problem that has developed is the AEMM project, we created have values of different parameters in two places which do not match the existing application of DPS. Because we couldn't find a way to change these values, we have created a new project with the correct values. Once we did that, we discovered that there is no way to move content between projects. So we are facing days of work to address this problem. That's assuming that the values of these fields have an important effect.

    Questions

    1. What are the effects happen to have value do not match in the field link reference? Reading this forum leads me to believe that the feature gives even does not yet.

    2. What are the effects happen to have value do not match the scope of report Suite? I still have to find a good reference for analytical how will be between these two editions of the DPS/AEMM.

    You want solutions

    1. in an ideal solution, we could get help from Adobe to fix the values in the original draft of AEMM

    2 or a way to pass the work weeks of the old AEMM project to the new, corrected one.

    3. we would be willing to leave the values as they are, provided it would have serious consequences.

    4 and if this is not possible, we will have to carefully recreate the settings in the new project, using the old as a guide, the hierarchy and content.

    Short answer: continue to use the previous project. You don't have to worry about these values for the migration.

    1. What are the effects happen to have value do not match in the field link reference? Reading this forum leads me to believe that the feature gives even does not yet.

    That is right. The reference link field is not supported at the moment, so there is no problem having a value do not match. (Link reference was intended to be used for the deep link outside of the app, but right now, we use dps. .)

    2. What are the effects happen to have value do not match the scope of report Suite? I still have to find a good reference for analytical how will be between these two editions of the DPS/AEMM.

    During the migration of DPS to AEMM, it is good to use a different value in the field of the report. Both platforms use different methods to collect Analytics requires different reports. If you have Adobe Analytics, you will want to ensure that your analytical information is implemented correctly in the master settings. If you need assistance with setting up Analytics, contact Adobe support. Support information are available when you connect to the portal using a master administrator account.

    Another question that you did not mention, but might want to consider. When you build your application, you specify a Bundle ID. When you build your Mobile AEM application, it is important to use the same Bundle ID you used when you build your DPS application so that you can update in the store. In addition, it is a good idea to use the same Bundle ID for Android and iOS apps for certain services such as In - App Messaging.

    At first reading, I thought you were talking to the ToolTip that appears when you mouse over a marker (or control, assets, etc. elsewhere in the application), but while they inspected your screenshot, I see that you actually talk to the superposition of the Source (added by CC7.1) monitor feature.

    The appearance of the overlay content is customizable.

    1. Click the key icon in the lower right corner (betw resolution playback and duration)
    2. Overlay settings > settings...
    3. Adjust the setting of the opacity of a lower value. Increase the text size setting might help, too.
  • How can I change the value of the sample during my simulation period?

    I'm about to set discrete PID profile vi to specify the values of the period of sampling of the order hold block. At t = 0, I wish that the value of 0.5 and then change to 1.0 when t = 5. Currently, only 0.5 goes to the waiting order discreet block. I think it's because the block takes this value and then use it for the entire simulation, do not check to see if the value has changed. Is there a way to tell the block to check this value at each time step and then adjust if necessary sampling its period?

    See code attached for reference.

    What is your overall goal for the sampling period? You will change the value more than once? Or only from 0.5 to 1?

    The PID setpoint profile should allow you to specify a profile for the values to send to the hold. He will see property values. For example if you specify only t = 0 setpoint = 0.5 and t = 5 setpoint = 1, you'll find it ramp the setpoint in 0.5 to 1.0 for the first 5 steps of time. If you want the sampling period of stay up to t = 5 0.5 is reached you will probably want to three elements in the array. set = 0.5 point t = 0, t = 4.99 set = 0.5, 1.0 = set point t = 5.

    If you're just fill one step, (from 0.5 to 1.0) you can use the Index Timestep in the Simulation parameters to determine the sampling period. Is attached a screenshot of what I mean.
