Inertia in the indicators

Hello

I am currently working on a based LabVIEW data recorder and display the program for a lab that I am running.

Wind speed and direction are among the types of data I harvest and you want to display. However, due to a low frequency of sampling, which is forced by material, gusts very erratic cases leapt to gauges that I use as indicators of wind.

I want to make smoother movements/changes by adding / simulating inertia in the gauges on the front panel, but so far, I have been unsuccessful in figguring a method to do and I have found no info on the web.

So I was wondering if someone have an idea on how to do it?

Thanks in advance!

Data feeding the meter is an average of the last 5 value or possibly superior and use the output of the value average of the gauge, this will provide a degree of depreciation, but will not mess up any data that you record. If you are sampling very slowly, you want the average of the last three readings, the actual number of samples average you will be until you feel looks better with the system you have - Mike

  • The indicators are not lighting on Satellite series

    The light is yellow, the others do not work. The laptop turns on, runs on battery, everything, but the indicators do not work. What can be the problem?

    Hello

    just a quick question: is your laptop work properly. (Except that the indicator thing)? If Yes, you have two options:

    1. you can accept.
    2. you can try another adapter (if available)
    3. you can try it without the battery inserted. Just remove it.
    2. you can send your machine to a service partner chartered for a checkup of material (if you need a link to find the service partner near, it's here: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/generic_content.jsp?service=EU&ID=ASP_SUPPORT)

    Otherwise I have no suggestions for you since I really Don t know what is wrong with your machine, but I guess something with your powersystem is not OK.

  • Update of the indicators of the façade is trolling in the test of the functions in the provider DLL

    I'm looking to see if someone can explain a behavior to display weird LabVIEW I see when to test some timeout works in a third party DLL. I have a work around in place but I would still like to know why, without the workaround, the information displayed by the indicators on the front panel are not synchronized with what is happening in the execution of the VI, even though I tried all sorts of things to impose the synchronization. Note that to run the VI in a useful way, you need to be able to communicate with a Galil axes via an Ethernet controller, and which, for the most part, limited this discussion to what the experts among you know happen under the hood of LabVIEW in situations like this.

    This is what looks like the VI when my work around (false wait added) is active. It's a small state machine that uses the elements of the array "Test Sequence" to tell him what to do in each step of its implementation. Here he plays a first time-out value, sets a new value of timeout, reading again, the timeout by asking a READING of the controller (without having first asked to say anything), followed by restoring the initial time-out and then tests to stop.  The two indicators in the red rectangle are there to show the current status of the execution, and it is this pair of indicators which are not synchronized with the State of the actual program.

    When execution completes, it is what we see.

    If the false timeout is too short, then the indicators are not synchronized with the State of the program, or in this case, with the other.  Note that the only time wherever the VI display is static enough for me to take a screenshot as it is during the period of "Test Timeout. When the time-out occurs Finally, things be synchronized and the same results are displayed.

    Here's the code.  I am also attaching a folder zipped with the code, just because I don't know if the extracts are smart enough to include all the dll referenced by library call nodes.

    Here on the left of the loop indicator 'State' and 'Index' terminals can be seen. The 'fake Wait' needed to make the indicators work synchronously appears below in the same area. Before coming with this 'fix' things I've tried, what has not worked, were:

    • addition of the structure of flat sequence seen here with the indicators in the first panel
    • Entrance to the 'value' property nodes using linked to two indicators with their outputs error Garland at the entrance of the error on the function 'G Read' (test timeout).
    • defining indicators for "synchronous display" (apparently this parameter actually only works with the multi-threaded code, which I don't believe it is)
    • setting false property to "postpone updates on the front panel.

    Another thing that worked linked a "probe" to any data path entrance side of the conditional structure. I thought that it causes also a few milliseconds of delay as the expectation.

    My best guess at what happens is that display updates are "launch and forget" actions that occur on parallel execution paths in the single execution thread and function on obtaining some of the main process to complete time slices. But when the main process is the name of an external library, which, outside the library can't share time with all other processes that can run in the same thread.  All this makes sense?

    This is because all these CFLN calls to the dll are set to run in the UI thread (to view the color orange on the top of the node).

    If they eat the cycles in the UI thread, they may not leave enough cycles to LabVIEW to make updates to the user interface of the front panel.

    What make these 3 part of the dll?  They need to run in the UI thread?  Is there a problem with the standby so that the DLLs are not pounding the UI thread?

  • Read the indicators continually the Subvi execution

    Greetings,

    Number of previous threads about this problem. However, it looks like all the need of huge changes to to the Subvi.

    Now, we have a bunch of Subvi programmed by different programmers, but at the end it is difficult if we combine all the indicators in each Subvi and display the values in the façade of a single main vi, without big changes for each Subvi.

    Control reference using will be a solution, with some changes in the sous-de VI, but it seems that the main vi and Subvi need to run at the same time. We cannot run only a Subvi himself then.

    Variable overall is another station, however, we have a huge amount of indicators, creating global variables for each indicator in each Subvi seems like redundant procedures.

    '

    I wonder if there is a way to create a main vi shell-like read these indicators permanently without needing to touch the inside of each individual Subvi. Or please let know us if you have better ideas.

    Thanks in advanced for any comment.

    -chen

    I was not involved in all this other discussions that you mention, so I can only go off of what you have described in your post. So the questions I ask are:

    -Don't the SubVIs run continuously (called) before the end of the application?

    -How to stop the sub live? You are reliant on the controls on the front panel (for example, a stop button)?

    If you'd rather not touch the sub live, you could put the sub sub-panels in the main vi screws. This would allow you to expose their facades, hosted in the main vi. Search for Sub panels using LabVIEW or online. It would also expost controls too, but you can customize the front of each to hide these off-screen, so to speak. There is also a VI properties that allow you to programmtically re - locate originally and resize the front panels in order to ensure the proper display.

    If this does not work for you then I think you should take a hard look at your architecture. Sometimes you can get so far from Shoemaker to things together. Look closer at all misconceptions of what a VI is actually and what calling a VI in an another VI means in fact (you're basically calling a function with some extras added as a front panel). There are ways to get what you want by programming, but they are hard work, not very easy to manage and can be more effort than other solutions.

    My strategy of choice? Use a messaging system any to communicate between your objects in your system. You have your items (hand UI, each Sub VI is a small entity of independent work of others) and you can use one of the buildings available to you through LabVIEW base (notifiers, queues, events user Global Variables (yuck), FGVs etc.) to allow these objects communicate with each other.

    But I guess you've heard all this before. All I can say is that "they are right". Sometimes there is no better solution for the bad design to re-design.

  • Structure of the case duplicates all the indicators on the user interface.

    I create a true/false case structure that contains several indicators for each of the cases respectively.  These indicators are displayed simultaneously on the user interface.  Is there a way to have indicators or indicators to replace the other as the other case is active or control must be in the user interface at the same time?

    Thank you!

    Is there a reason you want to duplicate the indicators?  The normal practice is to move the indicators outside the structure of the case and the wire coming from each case out through a tunnel.

  • Is there a way to update your EOs based so that the indicators of control of OS which will appear in the t?

    Hello world

    If I created a VO based EO but not indicia of control specified. Is there a way to do that now on the area of occurrence, and then refresh the VO for the indicators of control?

    As long as you have not given advice in the original Version that you can just add the tips in the EO and recompile the model project. The indicators will then be inherited by the VO.

  • Using aliases for the indicators, controls, procedures and calculated channels

    Hello

    I noticed that aliases do not appear in the workspace for the controls and indicators and procedures system Explorer and see calculated. Is there a way for them to appear? I need to use aliases because I like my definition of the system to control several test systems (which have different CAN report names). Otherwise my system definition would break every time I go to another CAN the database. I thought that the inability to address limited to the configurable alias controls add on, but it seems that VeriStand natively cannot address the areas I would like to also well done right click. Any recommendations would be welcome.

    Thank you.

    You are right that you cannot use alias in a file system definition for mapping purposes. It is an area that we hope to improve in the future. The initial design of alias was to serve as a public interface for the workspace, profiles of stimulus and so on. However, it is certainly a use case valid to be used as an interface in a system definition.

    A possible solution would be to create a set of user channels that play the public role of your interface in your system definition. Always use your user channels in all procedures, calculated channels and so on. Map your CAN channels on these channels to the user. Whenever you update YOUR database, you must remap the new CAN channels to the appropriate user channel. You can also automate this activity by importing a file delimited by tabs on the mappings page. The one drawback here is that your target will take a little more time to deal with these mappings.

  • What are the alternatives to the update of the indicators using nodes of property?

    Hello

    I'm building a VI that must update several controls/indicators in several points throughout its execution. It must also be able to accept the new values of the controls at any time.

    The problem is that all these controls and indicators on the face before of the VI another who called my VI. The current version of my program updates all these controls and indicators using references and property nodes (each indicator/control to be used has its own reference on my VI control, and these references are then sent to nodes of property), which makes it naturally slow.

    At the moment I plan to rebuild my VI so that the principal is able to recover data without the help of the references, but it is not only a lot of time but also difficult and impossible without my code turning into a massive pile of disorganized (especially since the lab computer is quite slow and the main big enough VI that by pressing the button "clean/re-organize block" causes a crash).

    Alternatives to this? Queues?

    This (my nugget events) is the best general solution, I came here.

  • CS5 with OpenGL: is there a way to disable the 'inertia' during the movement of the window?

    Hello

    Following a change in hardware, photoshop automatically reactivated a feature I had disabled, the OpenGL acceleration.

    I gave up on it 18 months because of one thing that irritated me incredibly, the crazy 'inertia' ago when we moved elements.

    Let's say you have a document open. The image is too large for your photoshop window, you will see a part of it.

    So, you keep the key space is, and you just drag and drop your left click of the mouse.

    Without openGL acceleration: the movement ends as soon as you release your mouse button.

    With the openGL acceleration: moving it gradually slows down until it comes to an end, which means that you have zero control over your working window.

    And well, that's enough of an annoyance for me to renounce the OpenGL acceleration.

    Please, do you know if there is a way to get rid of this feature? I've looked everywhere I could, I think I tried each of the options of photoshop, but without success, unfortunately

    Thanks a lot if you can help

  • Equium P200D - reduce the brightness of the indicators before LED

    I have a laptop Toshiba Equium P200D-139, model number PSPBNE-004003KS model name.

    The façade has four LED indicator, color blue and visible on the screen open or closed. They are for the input DC power, battery, and HARD drive.

    _My problem and question: _

    Led lights are extremely bright. In fact, they are so bright that they are a source of severe distraction, especially in a dark room. I'd say it's clearly a design flaw. They must be performed in a smaller current, be placed behind a darker filter. * Is it possible to reduce the intensity of the LEDS using software? * I was wondering if a command-line script or something similar may be available to do this - I did once something similar to toggle the CPU fan on my old Toshiba Satellite CT 210.

    _Background: _

    I bought the laptop a few days ago (March 2008), for £399. Is for me very good report quality / price, but in my opinion it is rented by the above-mentioned design LED fault and a very cheap feeling keyboard, with keys that creak and stick to the opportunity. The built-in speakers are also low-power. I wonder if it is a version produced exclusively for this store at a certain price point and that these questions are unintentionally introduced?

    Thank you

    Hello rich

    As a first step, I would like to say that I have the same model of laptop Satellite P200D-111. To be honest, I don't understand why write you about the problems. For me you just wrote on your personal opinion. It is logical that each of us has different opinions and I can understand you. But why all this set as a kind of design flaw. Sorry, but this is really ridiculous. Can you give me 100 different products and if I want to I'll find a design fault on each of them.

    Back to your question: all you can do is disable the SATELLITE led (BIOS settings > advanced > last option) but all the other LEDs placed in the Middle cannot be disabled and the LED intensity can be reduced. You can use tape and cover these LEDs.

    What about keyboard: I really don't have what you would expect. The keyboard is really stable and the buttons feel good. I use it for work and have really no problem at all.
    In the end, you need to know for this money, you have very good laptop. If you need better quality, why you didn t buy laptop for £1000. As you know all laptop manufacturers have models of different laptops. It's your choice.

    More money, better quality. But I still think that this Satellite P200D money is really good for laptop. Do you know that only Satellite/Equium P200 has 6 USB ports? Not bad! What do you think?

    Good luck and enjoy this cute portable!
