Number of decimal places in the recorded data

Hello world

I use the writing on measurement file Express VI and everything works well except for one thing. I have too many decimal places in my saved data. I really need 2 decimal places for my application. Is there a way I can fix this without having to open the file with Excel and format numbers?

Just FYI I'm writing dynamic data, the VI write is configured for text (.lvm) file format, and it is delimited by tabs.

Joint are two images: one of the worksheet of stored data, and the other is my writing to measure Express VI.

Thank you!

Laura

Not with the express vi

You CAN specify a format "%.2f" write to the spreadsheet file

  • To the number of decimal places control user input

    Hey everybody,

    I am all new to LabVIEW and just learn how it works. I was wondering if there was a way to allow user input to change the number of decimal places (the output of my function is infinitely extensible).

    I tried, but it did not work:

    Using a digital input, I appended a string with "%" + '[INPUT]' + 'f' with the number of function concat strings and string functions. I used the resulting string as the formatting string in the value format function.

    This doesn't quite work. The output should be something like "28.274", but instead, it displays "283f. Anyone know why? Is there a better way to do it?

    In addition, attach a picture of the front panel and diagram of block for clarity.

    (Yes, it's homework, but the assignment does not include allowing the user to adjust the number of decimal places, it's just something I would like to add.)

    Get rid of the number 2 for the width of your decimal string number.  It requires a space before a number to a number.  %. 6F is not equal to % .6f.  The string format don't quite understand the first format string.

    (PS.  It helps if you attach your VI.  In this way we can play with what you have rather than trying to recreate it from scratch.)

  • Number of decimal places of precision for numeric fields Standard

    Is there a number of decimal places of precision integrated in PLM4P for standard, off-screen digital box? This level of precision is editable for the system, or on a case-by-case?

    We don't currently support it. The default precision is 5 digits.

  • Change the number of decimal places according to the value of the field

    Hello world

    I'm doing a form using Adobe Acrobat.

    I want a field that usually has only 2 decimal places, to have 4 decimal positions ONLY when necessary.

    Example: If the value of the field is 3.53 that's fine, but if the value is 3,5346 I want to show him this.

    I played around field properties and I realized that I need to use a custom format script. I don't know where to start, however. Can you point me in the right direction?

    Thank you in advance.

    I just threw together quickly and did not test, take is as a general guide. It is intended to be placed in a JavaScript to the document level and called from custom Format script of the field. You can not put it simply everything as the script to Format because of the way that Acrobat behaves when you do.

    The point of the script is to calculate the number to use as the first parameter to the AFNumberFormant function, which is that Acrobat uses when configuring a digital format. I couldn't think of a clever name for the function, so I leave it to you:

    function fmt1() {
    
        // Set the minimum number of digits to the right of the decimal
        var min = 2;
    
        // Get the field value, as a string
        var val = event.value;
    
        // Round to the nearest 10-thousand of a cent
        var rn = util.printf("%.4f", val);
    
        // Replace any trailing zeroes with nothing
        rn = rn.replace(/[0]+$/, "");
    
        // Get the number of characters after the decimal
        var num = rn.split(".")[1].length;
    
        // Set to the minimum if appropriate
        if (num < 2) num = 2;
    
        // Use built-in formatting function
        AFNumber_Format(num, 2, 0, 0, "\u20ac", true);
    
    }
    

    Call it like that in the case of the field Format:

    fmt1();
    

    If this isn't a calculated field, but the one who interacts with a user, you'll want to add a function with the swing, something like:

    function keystroke1() {
    
        AFNumber_Keystroke(2, 2, 0, 0, "\u20ac", true);
    
    }
    
  • Number of decimal places in Write Back

    Hi all

    We use the writeback option ERPi/FDMEE to rewrite data in Oracle EBS12. Everything works correctly, but when extracting data from Hyperion FDMEE takes data in 7-8 decimal places. Is it possible for this round to 2 decimal places when exporting data?

    What version of FDMEE?

    When the data is written back to the LES, it is actually extracted using a view.

    For EBS, there is a view named AIF_EBS_GL_INTERFACE_V, where you can find the SQL code to extract data from FDMEE

    You can try to change this view to include a ROUND for the column amount:

    CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW "FDMEE" OF THE FORCE. "" AIF_EBS_GL_INTERFACE_V "("SEGMENT1","SEGMENT2","SEGMENT3", 'SEGMENT4', 'SEGMENT5', 'SEGMENT6', 'SEGMENT7', 'SEGMENT8', 'SEGMENT9', 'SEGMENT10', 'DIRECTION11', 'SEGMENT12', 'SEGMENT13', 'SEGMENT14', 'SEGMENT15', 'SEGMENT16', 'SEGMENT17', 'SEGMENT18', 'SEGMENT19', 'SEGMENT20', 'SEGMENT21', 'SEGMENT22', 'SEGMENT23', 'SEGMENT24', 'SEGMENT25', 'SEGMENT26', 'SEGMENT27', 'SEGMENT28', 'SEGMENT29', 'SEGMENT30', 'QUANTITY', 'ACCOUNTING_DATE', 'CURRENCY',"LOADID","ACCOUNT_TYPE") AS

  • Detection of contours in the recorded data

    Hello

    We will perform a few data capture high speed by using a number of cards SMU-6537.

    Once we captured the data we need to re - charge and to decipher. One of the steps in this decryption will require detection of outlines on specific lines, the data recorded. Traditionally, in a language such as C++, the code would be loop keeping previous comparison of data values. It seems to me that LabVIEW can be a little more intelligent than that, if we knew where to look. Is there a better way, for example replay data through a simulated map? Load the data into a structure and perform a function call to this topic? (We expect a lot of data, so we will not be able to load it all in at once)

    If someone could point us in the right direction that would be more useful,

    Thank you, Jon.

    Hi Jon,

    Thanks for your post on the forum.

    Just to confirm, you want to 'Acquire' continuous data (storing in a file) then "Generate" output based on the data stored after some post-processing/decryption.

    The SMU-653 x series of HSDIO cards use the functions of 'DAQmx API' (known as the VI in LabVIEW) for these tasks. Unfortunately, you will not be able to use a card "simulated" such as those in 'Measurement and Automation Explorer' to re-read data, simulated maps are used to configure tasks, testing and coding of materials who has yet to buy, their output is fixed.

    I can refer you to some (linked below) examples that illustrate how calls DAQmx API allows to acquire and generate data.

    Example - DAQmx: Acquisition of continuous digital high speed for the 6536/6537 (continuously acquires the data stored in RAM on the card)

    Example - build permanently and acquire Source synchronous data with software comparison

    That you connect to the file, I can recommend using ' Producer/consumer' architecture by which data are queued in FIFO memory as it is acquired, so the acquisition loop can run at a faster pace. The data are removed in the second loop of written and lower priority in the file.

    Community example - using producer/consumer Architecture for DAQmx reading and writing to a file

    Your data will then be "loop through" as you would in C++, the post-processing/decryption will be then performed before that data is written through the card.

    I hope this helps during the review of the architecture of your application of Jon.

    Thank you very much

  • How to round a number to a specific value and not to a certain number of decimal places

    Hello

    I'd round up the numbers according to a grid.

    Let's say I have a grid of 6 between 3 and 4 (3.0 3.2 3.4 3.6 3.8 4.0)

    I'd round up to the nearest number in the grid, so if I choose 3.7125, it will turn to 3.8.

    I found already in the forum how to round decimal degree, but not in my approach.

    You know to force rounding to the nearest of the grid.

    I thought a ramp up to make the grid then interpolate the number and use its index to round. But I don't know that there is a much easier way.

    Thank you

    Zied

    These ideas, everything seems to work if you try to round up to a set of specific values.  But you must set specific values for all the possibilities.

    If you want to round to a given interval, there is an easier way to do it.

    If you want to round each 0.2.  Divide your number of this interval.  Round to the nearest integer.  Multiply your number of this interval.

    If you need to force a number less than or greater than a given to be in this range, such as having range 1.255 round up to 3, then put a stove and Coerce before or after this piece of code.

  • Is it possible to retrieve the record date of maximum in one step?

    Look for not having to create two steps for these data (for example, create a table with the values I want and then in the second stage, link to these maximum values)

    So, what I have is:

    SELECT
    a.mbr_id
    b.address_1
    b.address_start_date

    Of
    Member has,
    b address

    WHERE a.mbr_id = b.member_id

    GROUP BY
    a.mbr_id
    b.address_1


    There may be a mbr_id attached to many address_1 in the address (but only a record of mbr_id by Member to Member). So, I want to, on one line, address_1, which is attached to the maximum address_start_date.

    Is it possible to do in 1 (one) step? Or what I need to create a table with the values maximum address_start_date first, then link to this table in a second time to get the max address_1 values?

    NOTE: in the SQL above, I added address_start_date just to show that this field exists in the address, I know that I must remove this, if there is another way to get what I want.

    Thanks for any help...

    Hello!

    Try the following SQL code:

    SELECT
    a.mbr_id
    substr (MAX (to_char (b.address_start_date, ' ' YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS) | b.address_1), 20)-if 20 is not OK try 19 or 21

    Of
    Member has,
    b address

    WHERE a.mbr_id = b.member_id

    GROUP BY
    a.mbr_id

    Explanations:
    1. "to_char (b.address_start_date, ' ' YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS) | b.address_1' allows you to link an address on the date indicated on the same line and the date is in a format that is well ordered as VARCHAR2.
    2 MAX (...) will build on the first 19 characters (the length of the day)
    3 SUBSTR (...) allows you to eliminate the date (which was used only for the order) and have the address only.

    Please please tell me if this solves your problem.

  • Decimal places in the Borough of editor (webtool not RDP)

    Hello guys,.

    I looked in the files related to the rounded numbers on OBI on the forum and the Web Editor, but since I am a noob on it I really need a trick.

    I'm doing a SUM on my database (SQL Developer) and model data whose result is correct - 7053 - but when I put the list of items in the editor and add it to a table or a Pivot it rounds the values of 0.6 to 1 and those below it is vacuum!

    Causing me 136 of the difference of the raw request to the Publisher.

    How can I stop this round? I changed the Data Format and the mask of formatting on the properties of the field.

    Pictured below (image 1) you can see that on an ordinary table since I ordered it order growing numbers less than 0.5 returns as white, the pivot table dynamic is more give when viewing but when you change the report always when you actually run the round up persists (picture 2).

    Hey guys,.

    A good friend Gareth taught me how to fix below, what worked:

    1 open the report in edit mode
    2. Select the properties icon in the upper part of the window
    3. Select the tab formatting
    4. scroll down
    5. in the end, you will see a setting called "use Compatibility Mode 11.1.1.5." Set this property to TRUE
    6. Select ok and save the report.

  • Why Captivate do not let you type decimal places outside the reporting points?

    If I have 15 questions on my test, how much is each question is worth. You can't enter decimals as points in the reporting section.

    Help, please. Thank you

    I understand that, but the points and percentage must not be the same.

    15 questions, 10 points each.  maximum number of points is 150.  100% = 150 points.

    The questions are always also weighted, you can specify a percentage of pass/fail, so let's say pass is 80%.  80% of 150 is 120, which is 12 correct answers in the example above.  Or if you use the value of the pass/fail point, you can set it to any multiple of 10 up to 150.

    Am I missing something?

    hiNi.

    You must format the values separately and mount it as an array of strings. I don't understand the purpose of the shift register. Why are there controls and a case user operated inside the loop structure, because the loop will run so fast that any user control would be unpredictable.

    Here's a simple code (LabVIEW 8.5) that you could use. Modify if needed.

  • How to make the calculation script to show 2 decimal places and stop rounding down to integers?

    Hello. First of all, thank you to those of you who have helped me create an interactive PDF file last year that worked perfectly if only integers are entered. This year, my client wants to show two decimal places in the calculations, and I'm back in this forum hoping to find the same expertise to make it happen.

    My form includes 43 fields for various monthly expenses. The sign of dollar for each field is part of the content of the form, not part of the scope of formatting. Users enter values directly in these fields, and the fields are formatted to display two decimal places. Each of these includes a the following validation script:

    Event.RC =! (event.value & & + event.value < 0);


    To the right of each of these fees, the fields are yes/no boxes ( expense Typecalled) that answer the question, "is this essential expense? The value of exports for Yes's 'essential', and the value of exports is "discretionary".


    A value entered in all areas of expenditure is directed to the field Total expenses by checking Yes or field Total discretionary spending by clicking No. two of these total fields are formatted to display two decimal places. In addition to long calculation scripts, the two totals fields include this custom validation script:

    If (event.value == "0") {event.value = util.printx ("", event.value)}

    Here's the problem: when values with two decimal places are entered in any area of expenditure, the calculation in two fields of total script rounded to the whole number closest. When 10.99 is entered in a field of expenditure and the Yes checkbox is checked, the value 10.00 is displayed in the field Total expenses . I want to display 10.99.

    For testing purposes, I inserted a new text field and did a simple calculation in choosing the fields of the somme and the values displayed correctly. The problem is definitely with the script in the two fields in total .


    I can drop the scripts of math here, but they are long and I'm not sure what the Protocol is super-long positions. I could also download the file, but I never did it and will need to understand this.

    Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you can help me, very well!

    To explicitly convert the field values for numbers, do something like this instead:

    var expense0 = + getField('monthly$.0').value,

    depenses1 = + getField('monthly$.1').value,

    etc.

    In the PES 10 folder, the sort order is by filename - [in PES 11 is by date and time with respect to the miniature display].

    If you are going to display-> display file names and check, displayed under thumbnails - will appear in the order?

    Normally it is numbered in the right order-, you renamed photos?

    If it was me, I create two tags, Holyrood and Britania and apply them to appropriate pictures. Then switch to thumbnail view and filter by tag.
