TDMS file written in red

Hello!

I would like to know if is it possible to write a column in excel (with a tdms file) in a color. Or if it is possible to make the word "failed" appear in red in the excel file.

Thanks in advance!

Discover this TDMS conversion Excel, I did.

https://decibel.NI.com/content/docs/doc-36555

It takes a PDM and transformed it into an Excel file, but it makes all the cells that contain the green card, and anything that contains red Fail.  Also, it creates a summary spreadsheet better and freezes the first row and column in the data sheets.  You can take it and do something similar after the import is done, ActiveX are working to make the file that you want, and then save it.

  • Creation Waveform TDMS file using the functions DDC_ in C 6.0?

    I'm trying to implement an export written in C 6.0. I can make the TDMS files using the DDC_ controls without any problem. But I can't understand how waveform TDMS files. I thought that if I added properties wf_ I should be able to define the waveform = Yes. But it seems to be more complicated than that.

    Here's what I work until now... (with the exception of the error handling to make it easier to see)

    Any suggestions? (Details of this aid are intended for LV or completely absent)

    Thank you very much

    Hi Don,

    Thanks for the additional information.  After doing research a bit more, it seems that there are 3 required properties so that the property of waveform to be set to yes.  These are wf_start_offset, wf_increment and wf_samples.  If you add in a call such as the following, this should solve the problem:

    DDC_CreateChannelProperty (lphchannel, "wf_samples", DDC_Int32, 5);

    Just replace with the length of your table 5.

  • Extract strings in the tdms files and write the strings in the file txt or lvm

    Hi all

    I'm struggling to extract strings from a file of tdms to write them in a txt file.

    The strings were written in tdms is a time stamp data recorded to a compact RIO.

    I put the chain in a different group from the PDM, but when I use the function read tdms with the group name, as I said, an error message is always take place.

    Thanks for all the help.

    I tried your attached file and it seems that everything goes file. I have attached the screenshot of my VI here, what do you want?

  • TDMS file creates several tabs data. You want to create only one.

    Hello NOR community,

    I am currently using the DAQ Assistant with my pots of chain record travel over a long time interval (see annex VI). I then use the vi "Write to a file as" to save the data in a file TDMS (see 'Write the file settings' photo attached for all the parameters chosen for the writing of the file). The file is written, however when I open the PDM file, the document creates a tab in Excel for every second of recorded data (please see attachment ""). It seems that the TDMS file is grouping all data every second, and then by creating a new group of data.

    How can I get the file to write all data on a single tab instead of creating multiple? I don't want to concatenate hundreds of tabs in a single great sheet.

    Thank you

  • TDMS files will not correctly import in Matlab

    I am trying to load the content of the TDMS files in MATLAB for post-processing. I'm not too picky on what method to use to achieve this, but I want that he be relatively simplified for processing batch and I want it to work (this is key)! I tried the NEITHER provided DLL with sample files ".m" (see "reading TDM/PDM files with The MathWorks, Inc.® software MATLAB", http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/5957). I can get to work perfectly with the TDM file provided, but it does not properly cover my own TDMS files. I also tried to treat the binary TDMS file using MATLAB Central M-script (see "ConvertTDMS", http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/28771). This file was written to process files TDMS file format description-based of NOR (see "Internal TDMS File Format Structure", http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/5696). M-script is my preferred solution since it does not require a bunch of other files such as the DLL approach does, but I'm willing to take the approach that works best.

    All I want to do is to be able to read all properties (names and values) and each group of channels (the names and values) to a TDMS file in MATLAB. Is this too much to ask? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    See the attachment document that has several screenshots to explain the problems I encounter. I have also attached my modified versions of the scripts mentioned above and my example of TDMS file which is not treated properly.

    Thank you

  • Set the format digital u32 when writing of TDMS files

    We use two meters of a PCI-6251, with two counters in the mode of angular position, to measure the angular positions of the two optical encoders 1000 per second for intervals of 10 to 20 hours.  We are writing to write files using PDM.  The files are very large, about 800 MB, but it is acceptable.  Convert us the TDMS files in .txt files, and then the data from .txt files are analyzed in Mathematica.

    My question is: How does one control the digital format of the data that is written in TDMS write?  At this moment we have two counters of the value of the product N = 10000 numbers U32 samples are then transmitted continuously to a TDMS file every 10 seconds.  The counters are using units of ticks (integers) and we would like to see whole in our data files.  We are convinced that the counters are producing U32 to the format number, since we see the correct U32 integers in the indicators on the front panel and we see labels on the value axis on our waveform graphs are integers, not real numbers.

    But it is also clear that Scripture TDMS puts double-precision (64-bit) numbers floating point in the PDM file, not numbers of U32.  The double-precision floating-point numbers cause our .txt files to be twice as big as they should be - these .txt files are half full with useless zeros and decimal points.  In addition, when you convert the U32 to double-precision real numbers, it seems to be a loss of precision as a result of writing of PDM, which is not acceptable.

    Our experience produces pairs of integers: U32 (or I32) format.  We could even get away with numbers I16.  Is it possible to get our data to stay in U32 (or same I16) format when they are written to the TDMS file?  What controls the digital numbers written to tdms?  Do all the numbers written in a PDM file end up being written as floating-point numbers double-precision?

    We use LabVIEW 8.2 on a PC running windows XP.

    If associate you TDMS write U32 data, data in the file will be U32. Floating-point conversion probably occurs when you read data from the file back. You can change this by plugging in a U32 empty table at the entrance of 'data type' reading PDM.

    You can check the data type in the file by examining the channel properties in the viewer of TDMS files. If NI_DataType is 7, given in the file are U32. If it is 10, data are floating point.

    Hope that helps,

  • The decisive TDMS file size when running.

    I have a request where the .tdms file can grow very quickly, due to the amount of stored data - 7 channels of data acquisition in 50 000 samples dry.

    I want to determine when the file has reached about 2 GB and close the .tdms file and create a new one with a different/timestamp name.  I want to break these files due to portability problems.

    It is, how to determine the size of the .tdms file?  When I try to give the Sub - VI "to get the size of the file" the .tdms, a GPIB controller file path must be in error of the charge occurs.  Also, the refnum of the tdms file is not the same as the file refnums, so the Subvi "get file pointer" will not accept the PDM refnums.

    I could probably calculate somehow what is happening in the PDM file, but that seems to be a workaround and will not exact due to the header information.

    You can't get the size directly from the refnum file, but you can probably still get the size another way. Use the file/directory information of the pallet of Advanced File i/o. It takes a path as input, not a refnum. This should give a specific semi file size value, although it will be possible that there is data to cache that has not yet been emptied to the file. Yet, when you talk about the file sizes in the range of 2 GB, it should be close.

    It is roughly the same thing that I look in Windows Explorer as the TDMS file size expands as it is written.

  • TDM file query property names

    I use the TDM files to save data from the trial.  At the file level, I am inserting a number of custom property labels (using the Property.vi defined in the IO file-> storage-> advanced storage pallet).

    Is it possible to query the names of these properties once the file has been written?  For example, if I put in a custom property "TestLocation", is there a way I can find the name of this property afterwards, so I can read the value?

    Hey Joe,

    Please try the attached VI for the names of the custom properties.

  • Card data scope of device to the TDMS file buffer

    How transfer brought data card device buffer to TDMS file directly bye passing buffers LabVIEW and Windows. In the same way as DAQmx configure logging (VI) do we have any function scope?

    The API OR-SCOPE doesn't have the ability to record data acquired directly on the disc like the DAQmx API offers.  All data must be retrieved from the on-board memory, which makes data transfer OR-SCOPE kernel driver via DMA, and a copy must then happen to transfer data from the space of the kernel in user space (LabVIEW), how it can be manipulated.

    The main reason for this flow is because the calibration scale occurs in the NOR-SCOPE driver and not the material.  So if you were to save data directly to the disk as DAQmx, he stock raw ADC codes, without correction calibrated.  The API OR-SCOPE allows to recover the coefficients of scale if you want to apply them at a later date after extraction of the data from the hardware.  To optimize flow of data applications, it is recommended.

    The only exception to the logging directly on the disk would be the Oscilloscope Reconfigurable SMU-5171R.  It is being implemented with LabVIEW FPGA firmware using the design of Instrument libraries, code is open for editing.  With the open nature of this software stack, it is possible to implement "direct to TDMS" functionality with LabVIEW FPGA Read region node.

    I hope this helps!

  • TDMS file corruption when using FTP

    I use FTP to transfer files a cRIO to computer TDMS.  The transfer looks like it works; However, when I try to open the crowd using TDMS files Viewer, I get an error indicating that the file in not a PDM standards.  That being said, I use Windows to FTP the same file to compare.  I use the PDM viewer to open this file very well... no problems.  Have any ideas?

    Did you find the difference between the size of the TDMS files before and after the transfer? If so, maybe it's quite possible that the "transfer mode" software FTP questions, maybe you can try to use "binary" instead of "text" for fashion?

  • How to merge and write analog inputs, and export data to a tdms file?

    N ° you write in the same file, just different GROUPS.  TDMS is a hierarchical data format.  You have the file, group, channel.  Waveform data will actually in the channel data.  But you can have metadata on any level.  So, I do a group I and a group of the AO.

  • Concatenate with DIAdem TDMS files, depending on the time

    This question is in French and English.

    Hello

    I'm trying to find a way to concatenate/merge several files TDMS analog measurements with DIAdem 2012, in order to have more than one file. I be provided with attachment 1.

    I am beginner in DIAdem and don't know not the language of the script code. En 986KO on this forum, I found the script 'Import data from several Files.VBS use', and changed lines 17 and 18 not 'csv' by replacing "tdms" (as it was stated on another topic on the forum). This script also appealed to "concatenate groups."

    The problem is that the TDMS files contain several groups (the slots on frame of measures Canada) each containing several different channels. This script concatenates so each group and the result makes more sense the script to modifier is certainly "CONCATENATE Groups", but in what way?

    Thank you

    By searching on this forum, I found the script 'Import data from several Files.VBS use' and changed lines 17 and 18, replacing 'csv' by "tdms" (as demonstrated in another topic on the forum). This script also uses "groups of concatenate.
    The problem is that the TDMS files contain several groups (pointing to the slots on the frame measurements), each containing several different channels. If this script concatenates each group and the result is meaningless. I think the script that needs to be changed is "CONCATENATE Groups", but how?

    Hi Oliver,.

    Try to run the script you downloaded once for each group and encodinng group to load in the assignment of "ChannelSet" in line 10 using the index group, like this:

    ChannelSet = "[1] / *" or ChannelSet = "[2] / *".

    I just found out that this example breaks in 2014 DIAdem because the 'DataFileHeaderAccess' command has been relegated and replaced by a new.  I need update soon.

  • Scaling of TDMS files

    Hello

    Someone has a good example of VI for scaling of TDMS files. I have capured data using the attached VI and I want to change this data in a new file by using the scaling slope and intersection derived a calibration VI. I thought it would be simple, but when I followed the example OR doesn't change it anything but the writing of information scaling for the PDM file properties. The data remains the same.

    Thank you

    Hello

    According to your here attached excel file, I don't know if the meter works or not. But I think it works! You set 0.033939 = slope and intercept =-8.962304 on the 'Raw data' group and the DATA on this group looks quite compatible with this METER.

    This excel file attached does not a "Scaling of raw data" group but a group of "Raw data" which is not in line with your description.

    Please join the PDM Moose and a scale TDMS file here, it is perhaps better to understand the reason. (I can fix the slope = 1 and the ordinate at the origin = 0 to read the raw data of the scale tdms file.)

  • Opening of TDMS files larger than 500 MB in LabVIEW

    Hello

    We were faced with a problem when opening files TDMS connected using a LabVIEW, PDM Viewer (the vi in palette Advanced TDMS) application, or by creating a new PDM vi player. The recorder app is built using TDMS functions in palette file.

    When the TDMS files are everywhere higher than 500 MB or the application hangs or crashes. It can sometimes give full error memory.

    I browsed the forum and found the screws to split large TDMS files into smaller files and then open them. The other option is to use NI DIAdem. Currently, we use the option of the tiara. We do not want to modify the application to split the files into smaller sizes.

    I'd like to understand why this is happening for files of these formats. I can easily play TDMS of 100 or 200 MB files.

    The configuration of the system plays a role in the present? How is it that DIAdem can open the file and cannot LabVIEW?

    What I want is to know if upgrade to Win 7 and LV 64-bit will solve this problem, without cut it files each time, or use the TDMS vi Viewer.

    More likely since the channel data is placed in a very wide range and fragmentation of memory makes it very hard on 32 bit with LV 32-bit OS. Another thing that could be a problem on your 32 bit LV: display data as it creates a copy of data. So maybe the original data of the channel can hold in memory, but tries to display it sweeps away memory.

    Another thing for 32-bit applications is to check the largest block of data you always free. Use tools like VMMap for your request of fragmentation of memory snapshot.

    As I wrote already, a generic application 64 bit triggers the limited "insane" values depending on the operating system like Windows 7... still, there are limits.

  • write with a fixed size tdms files

    Hi guys, I'm stuck with the problem of how to write a series of files tdms with each file has a fixed size of continuous analog sound recordings. Each file is named by the timestamps. The solution that I am trying at the moment is to create a new tdms file all the few seconds (provided) using the PDM open function. This idea implies a case structure for the State. When it is true, the new file name is created and then the open function tdm is called. When it is not true, I would use the name of the file created earlier. However, I do not know how to get the filename that is created previously, and so I'm unable to wire the false conditon of the structure of the case. Any help would be appreciated.
