IVI drivers - OK to use SetValue rather than the specific functions of Config

It is a general question of IVI driver, although I am currently using c# with the supplied agesani driver by NOR.

The IVI specifications provide many methods for configuration of devices (for example, ConfigureLevel, ConfigureAcquisition, etc.).  The IVI specification also requires that all drivers provide support for configuration of attributes through SetValue.

Configurations, the question: can be done through SetValue, or is it necessary to use specific methods to "configure"?

Thank you... and my apologies if this lame question.  Always learn from IVI.

Hello Dasher,

It is possible to set all the attributes in writing through SetAttribute functions, but this is not the recommended approach.  Configuration methods have been designed to set the related attributes in a logical manner.  Sometimes an attribute must be configured before other attributes.  The configuration functions should be considered.  If you use SetAttribute functions directly, you will probably have to learn more about how the instrument works and responds to commands.

See you soon,.

  • Is it possible to save a PDF file in a variable to be used later, rather than the record in a file?

    I am contiuing to a thread unresolved I made ages ago @.

    http://forums.Adobe.com/thread/574764?decorator=print & displayFullThread = true

    The interesting point is the following:

    People, I do not see anyone suggesting a feature that can help here. You don't really need to create files with these CFPDF tags * if you do not want.

    For example, as is the problem of Paule, if a tag is creating something that the other uses (as its result CFPDFFORM then flattened), you can use the NAME attribute (the destination) to indicate a variable to contain the output of a previous step and then use this variable in the SOURCE of a later stage.

    It's a tag, not an attribute.

  • Firefox uses https rather than http

    I had problems to connect to a site recently so I tried to use https instead of http and I got but only a text based page. Now I want to go back to using http, but Firefox uses https rather than http.

    I put browser.urlbar.autoFill.typed and browser.urlbar.autoFill to false, but it does still even after restarting Firefox. I deleted cookies, the tab of this site closed and restarted Firefox. He always does.

    I tried to set the keyword. URL to http://***.***.org/ "obviously with the correct url.

    Anyone has the clues how to stop this?

    One of the reasons why a "Strict-Transport-Security" header sent by your server (or an application on your server). Once Firefox stores this parameter specific to the site, you may be stuck with HTTPS forever. See this thread for an example: Firefix 25.0.1 forces SSL even when http:// is specified in the address bar.

    The function "to forget this site" will erase all the known places that Firefox can keep information on the site. This, of course, history and cookies, but also includes the permissions specific to the site and even favorite.

    If you want to try it, the option is available in two locations:

    • The library dialogue (history > view history). Right click on any entry to the site.
    • The subject: permissions page (type or paste on: permissions in the address bar and press enter). Choose the site from the list on the left and look for the button in the upper right.
  • Using skins rather than using the new components

    Hello

    I have briefly spoken on BlackBerry Playbook workshop at LeWeb 10 with the presenter and thought I'd share it here as well.

    Most of the QNX components already exist in the 4.5 Flex / AIR SDK 2.5 framework (button, checkbox, list, StageWebView,...), but they exist in QNX specific packages so that they are "tactile."

    I believe that BlackBerry created a few new components "tactile" because the Flex Framework was not yet ready, but now with Flex 4.5, there these prepared components for mobile.

    Create BlackBerry applications using components from QNX records is easy, but if you really want to develop for multiple platforms, it would be preferable to use skins rather than new components. Skins such as the display of the box could be easily SDK BB so that there is no need to change all the 'new' instructions (or the need to create several plants) but simply to define it in a CSS or Flex theme. In this way the exact same application can be on Android and BB without having to redefine each instantiation.

    I hope the SDK already thought about this team and will provide these theme / Skins

  • Can I use points rather than inches * definitely * when you use the menu box "cloak"?

    Can I use points rather than inches when the dressing specification in menu box "cloak"? In other words, can I use points and there is no change to inches as soon as I'm done?

    Thanks for responding!

    You can always insert any available unit, just add the unit if it is not the norm. For example write 5pt if you wand 5pt, even if the field displays mm or inches.

    Changing permanently would be possible through preferences, but not only for the single string.

    Hi cjohnm,

    You can use the 5 Lightroom Catalog and improve it in Lightroom 6, therefor all folders and collections will be identical in both version.

    Open the Lightroom all holding the key Alt/Opt and select only the 5 Lightroom Catalog and it will switch to it.

    Let us know if that helps.

  • Appropriate use of the specific functions of IVI Driver

    Hello

    I have to call niDMM driver specific functions, for example the diode test function and source of current value. I am able to do using IVI step types. I just input function and the ID attribute of the niDMM header files. I would use the IVI drivers, but I need the specific functions of the device in some applications. I tested it and it works well, but is it the right way to do it? What is the recommended approach?

    My IVI not look like this when usig own functions and attributes: I don't like typing in numbers, but I've not found a way to use the header file definitions (see below).

    Diode test ID is defined by nidmm.h:

    #define NIDMM_VAL_FUNC_SPECIFIC_EXT_BASE IVIDMM_VAL_FUNC_SPECIFIC_EXT_BASE

    #define NIDMM_VAL_DIODE (NIDMM_VAL_FUNC_SPECIFIC_EXT_BASE-2L)

    defined by IviDmm.h

    #define IVIDMM_VAL_FUNC_SPECIFIC_EXT_BASE (1000L)

    Current source attribute ID is defined in nidmm.h:

    #define NIDMM_ATTR_BASE IVI_SPECIFIC_PUBLIC_ATTR_BASE

    #define NIDMM_ATTR_CURRENT_SOURCE (NIDMM_ATTR_BASE-25L) / * ViReal64 * /.

    ini.h:

    /*****************************************************************************/
    #define IVI_ATTR_BASE 1000000
    #define IVI_ENGINE_PRIVATE_ATTR_BASE (IVI_ATTR_BASE + 00000) / * base for private motor IVI attributes * /.
    #define IVI_ENGINE_PUBLIC_ATTR_BASE (IVI_ATTR_BASE + 50000) / * base for the public attributes of the IVI engine * /.
    #define IVI_SPECIFIC_PUBLIC_ATTR_BASE (IVI_ATTR_BASE + 150000) / * base for specific drivers public attributes * /.

    I prefer to use a code module and call the NIDMM functions in there. You can use the type rather than the identification number definitions.

  • Windows 8 cursor jumps in the existing text and continues to type here rather than the finish line that I am on, anyone else spotted the same thing?

    Just upgraded to Windows 7 to 8, using MS Office Word 2010, worked well on Win 7, but now type text and the cursor suddenly jumps into the existing text and continues typing, rather than the finish line that I'm on.  Thought, I was accidentally touched for touch pad or other keys, so now consciously look for this but can find nothing on my part.  Have experienced it before with a processor OS Linux and Open Source, when the OS has been updated.  Think there may be a loophole to WIN 8.  It also happens when keying in the screens like this, that has happened twice while here. Someone else spotted the same thing?  Or is it just me?

    Also, anyone know how to disable "Open Tap" on the Mouse touchpad of the notebook, its annoying, I could disable in WINDOWS 7 but cannot know how Win8.

    Thank you very much for your help, the setting was not really there, but you gave me the name of the device, so I was able to download the right driver from

    http://www.Synaptics.com/resources/drivers

    above mentioned just in case anyone has the same problem. The site recommend to go with the hardware vendor's website, but ASUS has wrong driver, one of the above works fine.

    Its such a relief to be able to settle this problem - THANK you

    Lets see if it sorts the problem MS Office too.

  • When I open a new tab, it goes straight to the Bing, rather than the white page.

    I recently downloaded a program called PDFlite to view the PDF files. He seems to have changed some settings on my Firefox, I does not allow to do so. I am today and there was a Bing toolbar, which I disabled it without problem. But now when I open a new tab, it goes directly into the Bing search engine, rather than the blank page where it used to go. This turn off the coast. I hate Bing. I checked my addons and there is no new addons added by the program. I can't understand what is happening. Help, please!

  • How can I get a formula refer to the text in the cell rather than the data?

    I've formatted some cells to show 0 if the calculation is a negative number, but how do I get another formula using the value 0 (rather than the negative number that is in the data) when calculating?

    This one is stumping me!

    HI WS8,.

    Formulas will use the value in the cell. A 'format' only controls what is displayed and does not change the actual value contained in the cell.

    If you want a formula for use 0 in which case the actual value in the cell is negative, you will need to do one of the following:

    1. Revising the formula to create the value in the source cell to return a zero if the calculated value is less than zero:
      = MAX (0,formula)

      OR

    2. Revise the formula that returns the value in this cell (B2 in the example below) to convert values less than zero to zero.
      Current formula: = B2 * 1 k
      Revised formula: = (MAX (0, B2) * k)

    Kind regards

  • square pulse time rather than the sampling frequency and size dependent frequency

    Anyone know if it is possible to create a pulse square with its dependent on the frequency at the time rather than the sampling frequency and size?

    for example if I set the frequency to 10. That means 10 pulses per second.

    rather than having to set the sampling rate and use the equation

    frequency = [(# of cycles) * (sampling frequency)] / sample size

  • From LR6.1 to LR6.3: rename folders created are based on the date of importation rather than the date of shooting!

    I started using LR with version 2... My import workflow was even up to 6.1 and all my files are organized in the same way for more than 10 years.

    I went on LR6.2 given the changes made in the import dialog. But upgraded to LR6.3 think the problem has been resolved.

    But now I noticed that all my photos are renamed and placed in folders corresponding to the date of importation rather than the date of shooting... I rename my files from custom and is gone in this dialogue, but has not as how to restore LR import my photos using the date of shooting. This creates havoc on my hard drives and in LR. I use the date of shooting a lot to find my photos, since I often neglect to add keywords.

    I really need to be able to get the date of shooting on the behalf of my photos and have copied them in the folder the correct date.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    BTW: something has changed in the way the forum appears. Research is not very powerful... it has not brought something, yet I know that the import dialog has been at length when 6.2 was introduced. In addition, I see no browser passed a few more recent messages. I don't like the new interface.

    Well, I answered my own question. Yes, I was looking for settings in the destination Panel... There is a line that shows what would change the name... and it showed the date of importation as the new name... but actually... It was only to show you what the name change would look like. Because I had a selected image, I thought it would show that the change of name for this image. But it is not related to the image... The import worked as expected... My apologies for disturbing him. .

  • Is it possible to read the contents of the XML file rather than the properties for the location of FLEX

    Is it possible to read the contents of the XML file rather than the properties for the location of FLEX

    Strictly speaking, this is not really true. When running, the ResourceManager of IResourceBundles for localization, not deal with XML files or properties files. As long as you implement IResourceBundle, you can back it up with XML, properties, JSON, AMF files - what you want. The problem is that mxmlc will not build modules of resources for you what it is, with the exception of properties files, and cannot compile just resource bundles in a .swf using anything other than properties files. If you build your own interface to spit IResourceBundles, this could work, but it is probably more trouble that it's worth.

    (Assuming that you establish the link in the application) the best solution is to write a script to pre-process the XML in properties files.

  • Export to Excel button rather than the export report link

    I use of Denes Kubicek export to Excel. The customer wants an Export to Excel button rather than the link in the Section of the report for the report's export. So I created a button named "Download to Excel" and created a branch of the Branch of URL of return to function under a condition "When the button is pressed" with "Download to Excel" and action of the branch is

    Start
    return ' f? p = & APP_ID.:0 : & SESSION. : D OWNLOAD_EXCEL:no:T_REGION_ID, T_EXCEL_NAME, T_PAGE: #REGION_ID #, MiniProfile_firms, & APP_PAGE_ID.';
    end;

    When I press the button to get the following "File download" windows error:
    < pre >
    Do you want to save this file, or find a program online to open it?

    Name: .xls [1]
    Type: Unknown file Type
    < / pre >

    Why is that happening and how can I solve this problem?

    Robert,

    http://Apex.Oracle.com/pls/OTN/f?p=31517:108

    Create a hidden item: p108_region_id and it calculate whether it is NULL using the suite of applications:

    SELECT region_id
      FROM apex_application_page_regions
     WHERE application_id = :app_id
       AND page_id = :app_page_id
       AND region_name = 'Employees'
    

    Make your button a button URL with the following link:

    f? p = & APP_ID.: 0: & SESSION. : D OWNLOAD_EXCEL:no:T_REGION_ID, T_EXCEL_NAME, T_PAGE: P108_REGION_ID, my_report, & APP_PAGE_ID.

    and there you go.
