Measure the time in seconds each time run you a VI

Dear people,

I'm trying to measure the speed of a wheel using a magnetic sensor and other settings in the vehicle. What I also need to document in my project is the time elapsed (in seconds) each time that you run the program. Is there a way where you can measure the elapsed time in seconds in labview?

Any sort of suggestions or examples would be useful.

Below is an example of how I wanted my final to watch output file.

Time (sec) | Speed (mph). Acceleration |

0                    23                 5

1                    24                 6

2                    25                 7

Thank you in advance!

Hi iZACHdx,

That's what I was looking for exactly! Thanks for the simple example.

Thank you

  • How can I measure the time between each two successive increase edges, using digital input?

    Hello

    I have tried two measure the time in seconds between each two successive rising edges on a digital input.

    So far I managed to detect the rising edge, increment a counter at each rising edge and take the time during which the increase is edge

    all I need now is subtract edge currently rising from the previous era of edge rising to calculate (T), which can be 1/frequency and display in real time for the user.

    but I do not know how to do this

    Can someone help me please!

    Woah!

    Sorry Apok, but your code becomes much too complicated and salty. I don't think that all records to offset or Boolean conversion/operators are necessary at all.

    If you want to measure the time between two keys so it's another (much less complicated) way. It simply records the time when press button in a registry change, then compares the two.

  • Measure the time between two digital pulse

    Hello

    For a non-critical calendar application, I need to measure the time interval between consecutive TTL pulses, ranging from the order of 0.5 s for a few seconds, with a low accuracy of +/-10-50ms. The interval being measured varies between the rising edge of the first pulse and the front of the next and so on.

    I have several input lines I need to deal with. Because it's a critical machination low cost, I don't want to use digital counters for each line, so I work with an acquisition of data USB6008 and have connected the input rows TTL on the digital inputs of the device. Avoiding will be sufficient.

    I found a good example of VI on discussion forums that does almost the same thing, only it uses instead of the DAQ Assistant user input. The VI works including the time the program going on in a while loop. I replaced with the DAQ Assistant output (a channel) user input in the hope that it is still work.

    When I run the program in "run once" mode, it seems to work perfectly. However, in "continuous run" it measures only a very small interval, probably just the time between two samples.  I think it has something to do with the help of a while loop in combination with the DAQ Assistant. Anyone who has any suggestions how to solve this problem?

    Thank you!

    OK... first of all, you should never use the button "run continuously.  I wish that NEITHER would be to eliminate it, but told me that it is sometimes useful for debugging.  If you want your program to run over and over again, use a while loop with a stop"" button.

    If I'm reading your code correctly, you make your initial moment, and then collect data from data acquisition.  When one of the channels is "T", you stop your loop and the end time of capture.  (By the way, why you convert your table to a cluster?  Why not just index the appropriate channel in the table directly?)

    Since you want to capture the time between two consecutive pulses, you need to know when a transition has occurred... i. e when your digital line went from F (no pulse) to T (pulse start).  This will give you your forehead.  Right now, all you're doing is looking for a value T - so you have no way of knowing if you are looking for to the previous impulse again, or a new impetus.  You also burn 100% of your processor with the way you have your programme in place.

    You need a small loop delay so that your VI is not 100% of your hogs CPU time.  Given that you can live with an accuracy of 50msec, what I suggest that you use.

    See attached picture for you give an idea of how to implement.  He will probably need some refining operations, but it should point you in the right direction.

    I hope this helps.

  • Measure the time between the ridges of the periodic input signal

    We have built a circuit which is supposed to mimic an Exercycle.  We have an IR switch and a spinning wheel, the rccb meets a comparator circuit and the output of the element of comparison, we have running in LabView.  We successfully were able to measure the number of rotations of the wheel and the total distance travelled by the wheel, but are struggling to measure speed.  We cannot find a way to measure the time between picks in real time, which we could then divide the wheel circumference and calculate the speed in real time.  The VI I posted has a square wave simulated rather than the signal we receive on our circuit.  Thanks in advance for the help.

    Jon and David

    I think you're overloading the things trying to get the time between two pulses.  Instead, you can use the VI Express your measures and select frequency for her custom. Then, you can multiply the circumference of the wheel of the frequency to get the speed.

    I hope this helps.

  • Measure the time difference between a digital output and an analog input that responded to the questionnaire

    Hallo,

    I use the following system:

    • OR PXI-1044 with controller NI PXI-8109

    • OR PXI-2564 switch module to turn on the monitor of my test device

    • Data acquisition multifunction NI PXI-6259 to measure the signal that responded to the questionnaire jump

    The two cards are the same - PXI trigger bus. For both, PXI-2564 and PXI-6259 I use DAQmx to set the reading and writing of the channels.

    Now, I want to measure the time between the digital output, my unit turns and the analog input, which measures the response of my system.

    I can't do work by myself, please help me!

    I thank Ludwig.

    Gurus,

    How to display the time running in my form? can you please send the code as well as the event and in my application if I want to Flash a particular text, can I do this? If so, how

    Concerning

    Of course, you need to start the countdown in a trigger. A TIME NEW FORM INSTANCE is a good place to do it. Be sure to create it as a timer that repeat themselves.

    To see if your fire WHEN-CLOCK-arrival at EXPIRY, put a message in it and see if it is displayed.

  • Measure the time of the rising edges of a digital stream using a USB-6341

    I have a DAQ USB-6341 map.

    I use Measurement Studio (writing code in c#) on a Windows 7 computer.

    I'm relatively new to the DAQ cards, programming, so I could ask something that is obvious (sorry if this is the case).

    I went out a stream of digital pulses to an analog output channel.  I wired this channel to one input of the meter channel.  I am able to measure the number of edges upward to the inlet of the meter channel (since the digial flow is continuous, the number of rising edges increases with time).

    I would like a time stamp of each rising transition and I like to keep these timestamps in a table without ever growing (or maybe bin these timestamps in a histogram).

    Set up the meter channel to provide the timestamp data? (rather than just count)

    Thank you for your help.

    WRB,

    The meter must be able to measure the relative time between the different edges of your signal.  To do this, you will take care to set the meter to measure time.  It will measure how long a full period of your signal takes.  You can configure edge that you want to start with.  You'll want to set up your timed 'implied' measure.  This sets up the meter to automatically take action whenever a period is over.  While it's not exactly a timestamp, you can find the distance between two edges by adding the time periods between the banks in question.

    I see another technique that you can use.  This would put the counter to edges of County one of the basics of time of your device (it has 100 KHz, 20 MHz and 100 MHz bases long).  Then configure the task to use your signal as a sample (configuration to use rising edge) clock.  Whenever the song occurs, you will get the number of ticks ticks selected timebase that took place at that time.  One thing to note here, however, is that the counters are 32-bit wide, so your code will have to manage the overthrow of this charge if you are using a fast time and base running for long periods of time.

    Hope that helps,

  • How to measure the time, that the slider flew over an area reactive

    Hi all


    I have a task in which participants will have to make a decision with two options. Therefore, I created two spots, one for each option. I want to measure is the time that the "flat" mousecursor on each option before a choice has been done (one of the two hot spots clicked). Thus, for example: If a user first flat 2.5 seconds over option 1, then go to option 2, flat il.45 seconds, then go to option 1 again, hover pendant.5 seconds before clicking, I want to save these two values (2.5 +.5 = 3.0 s to option 2 for option 1 et.45 s) what is performed on a hotspot. I thought using a conditional in my interaction icon something similar to ObjecOver (which gives what icon display the cursor is currently above), but then to have something like HotspotOver (which does not exist). Anyone know how I can accomplish these measure hovertimes?

    Kind regards
    Frank

    The solution I came up with that has five hot spots. First a calculation icon: OptionTimes: = [0,0]

    Then the interaction with hotspots: click on option 1, option cursor area 1, the option click 2, cursor in option 2, the single area finally a hotspot that surrounds all the other

    In the display area hot point type for option 1, I have the calculation:

    Option: = 1

    OptionStartTime: = SystemSeconds

    I hope you can see where this goes. There is a similar calc for option 2 in the cursor in option 2 of the area. It affects only the number of Option 2. In the latest hotspot that surrounds the other, I have this:

    OptionTimes [Option]: = OptionTimes [Option] + SystemSeconds - OptionStartTime

    When the user rolls over an option and then leaves, the hotspot that surround other intercepts and records the time they spent. You also need same calc in the way of response for both options catch the time taken by looking at the option just before clicking in their choice.

  • Measure the time betw keyframes?

    Hi-

    It is essentially a question to see if a function exists in AE 7.0/Mac.

    I would like to know if there is an easy way to (non-arithmetique) to measure the number of frames between the 2 keyframes.

    Can I select 2 keyframes on the same layer of the timeline and have AE just showed me the number of frames (or the amount of time) they are out?

    TIA an experienced response.

    JL

    No, there is not such a function. If you need something like that, create an expression on a text layer, or use a script that measure these things. for expressions, he would use the time indicator to detect the nearest keyframe and a previous / next, whether he should really be coming from a precise selection, only scripts can offer that.

  • with these changes, I can only print a page of print preview ability has been removed I use it all the time when you want to print something on a Web site

    When I was on a website and I tried to print a page, it allows to be a tab that says "FIREFOX" in the upper left corner of my screen, I could click on that tab and I had several options, one was "print" and "print preview". All the time, I use the Preview button before printing to see how the page would look like when I was feeling and how many pages there are. I could then choose to print all or part of an article and adjust it to what I wanted to print. I don't have this tab in the upper right corner. A tab for "open menu" is now in the upper right corner, however, in this menu is only a button 'print '. There is no option for "print preview" and so I can't address that I want to print. I could also adjust margins, etc. of a tab from the view, I can not find too. I really hope there are always options and how I find, where are they located?

  • Before the controls Panel reset each VI run.

    Hello

    I have a test unit, MISTLETOE is designed in Labview; Measures pressure and writing for a Word report are required. I currently have a problem regarding the behavior of VI when I run. It is explained below:

    All my settings front and controls which give before you run the vi reset empty Windows when I run the VI.

    Also, I first thought that, ok, same if control values disappear, as long as they written in the report, it is very good. But, it happens that easily. When I have the controls on the front panel before you run the VI of power and then run the VI, I must stop the VI and run it again for them to print the report.

    The model is like this:

    1. go the front panel control values.

    2. to run the VI ===> Panel control values before disappearing.

    3. perform the test, stop the VI and print the ===> no control value to print.

    4 restart the VI without going all control values.

    5. run the VI ==> controls front are empty (of course, because no values have been entered).

    6. perform the test, stop the VI and print the report ===> initially entered control values to print.

    So, essentially, before control values not only disappear when the VI is executed, but there are also two that works for the values to enter in the memory and to print the report.

    The goal is to punch in the values of control-> Run the VI-> > print the report and the report is complete with all the values in that control.

    Now a bit about the VI:

    Control values, that I don't speak are simple string as the name of the company controls, operator name and al.

    The block diagram composed of (LEFT to RIGHT):

    Consumer & producer loops--> Type in front of panel controls--> print the report.

    In other words, loops of producer/consumer of output data in the toolkit of generation report. But the Front panel to be fed contols lie between producer/consumer loops and report printing function. (No express used screws)

    So, how can I get rid of my front panel endangered control values. I want to display when the VI is running.

    Please advice.

    Thanks in advance,

    RP.


  • How to measure the time for each mapping?

    I use oracle11g with OWB.

    I have several mapping and each dimension tables to update the mapping.

    I want to measure how long it takes to complete each mapping. What is the best way to find the total time for each mapping.

    One way is, we can have POST MAPPING and PROCESS of MAPPING PRE. I can trigger the stored procedure to enter the start time and the end time of each match. On this basis, I can calculate the total time for each mapping. But I have 50 mapping. Now, I need to write 50 different stored procedure and open the POST-PROCESSING of the MAPPING and PROCESS OF MAPPING of the PRE for each mapping. It is complex.

    Is there another way, we enter the total for each mapping of execution? Y at - it that no data in OWF_ MGR dictionary can help on this?

    I would be grateful if someone can help me on this.

    He will remain forever unless you purge it explicitly.

    See you soon
