Long days in the lab...

I have spent the last 2 days processing shallow snow and firn cores in the lab, this is the last one (for now). Really nice datasets coming out, but a lot of concentration required.

At least I have a great view (when I remember to look up).

Review of the Fluke 1953A counter/timer shows it is fully working as hoped (operating under local and remote control.) Verified all inputs and operations via GPIB remote control with a simple LabVIEW program. Have a few more esoteric tests to run in near future, but for now, it looks great for a counter/timer from the 1970’s. #TestEquipment #LabVIEW #NotTimeNut

Photo of a Fluke 1953A multi-function counter on a very busy table top. Counter is under  remote control and measuring a frequency of 20.123457 MHz from the TinyGTC source.Desktop photo from above showing a NI GPIB-USB-HS module connected to the rear of the Fluke 1985A counter. Coaxial cable from the TinyGTC clock output is routed to the counter's A input jack.Poor photo of the laptop screen showing the LabVIEW virtual instrument control panel controlling the Fluke counter via GPIB. The display shows mode control, time base, cycle LED, and output measurement of 20.123460 MHz. It works!

@alcea moooment. Ich habe mehrere Programmiersprachen gelernt, und gerade zum ansteuern von Geräten und zur Darstellung von aufgenommen Daten ist LabView aber sowas von viel einfacher als alles andere. Es eignet sich für ganz viele Dinge nicht so gut (und deshalb kann man zum Beispiel Matlab Code einbinden, statt den mit LabView zu programmieren), aber für die Dinge die es tun soll ist es super (und teuer).

Es ist auch mega einfach zu lernen: Datenströme werden als Draht dargestellt, und jedes Kästchen ist eine Funktion, die mit Inputs (kommen von links) bestimmte Outputs (gehen rechts raus) erzeugt. Rahmen um irgendwas herum sind Strukturen wie Schleifen, cases, ...die die entsprechenden Code Blöcke unter Bedingungen ausführen. Das ist wirklich straightforward, wenn man nicht gerade einen chinesischen Screenshot nimmt.

Rainy day in EN52 Chicagoland - time to setup and test a Mini-Circuits ZX47-55 RF detector module to see if working or not. Measured DC Out vs 100 MHz RF level In and DC Out at -20dBm In while sweeping from 0.1 to 6 GHz. Result: It works as a RF detector module but DC output is not easy to use (want dBm, got neg-slope DC mV instead). Might make a LabVIEW program to display/chart dBm with Digilent AD3, or maybe write code for a standalone Arduino w/ display showing dBm… #RF #LabVIEW #Arduino

Used SATSAGEN software to control the Pluto TX as a signal generator (setting frequency and RF Out level).Clip of output voltage graph from ZX47-55 data sheet showing voltage reducing as input RF level is increasing (negative slope).Screenshot showing detector output voltage vs input level at 100 MHz. Output correctly goes down as RF level goes up.

I need to get ridge of my 36 years old T1600 laptop and a couple of ++ books which I probably never read. Anyone interested?

To this day I'm convinced that by far the best way to do concurrent programming with #threads (beyond graphical programming languages like #Labview, where concurrency is natural) is that used by #Tcl

In other words each thread is created with its own sub-interpreter. Each has its own context, not shared. Information is passed by messaging (which the receiver receives in their own event loop). Channels moved (not shared) explicitly.

This massively reduces race conditions and other nasties.

So the background: we have a optical spectroscopy lab, with several instruments doing similar stuff and producing similar data. Each instrument has components and the whole setup is controlled by PC. Normally, one would use #labview for this kind of work.

But I do not. Why we would use gargantuan multi-gigabyte proprietary commercial program, when we could have the same functionality with few hundreds lines of open-source code, right? 😀

There are some reasons why I "don't like" LabView:

Why is everybody making a HyperCard cline, and nobody is making a LabVIEW clone? Not that I don’t love HyperCard, but LabVIEW is cool too.

Виртуальная лаборатория робототехники или Как мы выбирали подходящее ПО

Вступление Так получилось что мы группа студентов и преподавателей заинтересованных в создании имитационных виртуальных лабораторий, в которых студенты могут без особых углубленных знаний попробовать поуправлять квадрокоптером, конвейером или другими интересными моделями. Ведь не всегда есть возможность потренироваться на реальных физических лабораториях. Нужны: место (деньги), оборудование (деньги) и время (тоже деньги). Следовательно придется смотреть в сторону виртуальных моделей. Мы искали удобную среду для создания таких моделей и вот до чего дошли (обозреваем ниже). Немного истории : факультет электромеханики (ныне переименован в Мехатроники и Автоматизации) НГТУ создавался в 50-х, чтобы готовить специалистов по разработке и производству электродвигателей, электрогенераторов e.t.c. Позднее факультет оброс кафедрами смежных направлений а в конце 2020-х открыл направление Робототехники. Профиль ФГОС и 70% предметов оставили прежними. Как и педсостав. В результате получили выпускников которые: умеют подобрать двигатели для круглого квадрокоптера в вакууме (и не только подобрать, но и спроектировать с нуля или пересчитать/перемотать); умеют настроить регуляторы для этого пепелаца; знают как рассчитать мощность и КПД. А вот о том, как программировать автопилот — только «имеют представление». В принципе такая заточка имеет право на жизнь если разрабатывать не роботов-доставщиков, а промышленные роботизированные ячейки.

As part of NI’s push for “#LabVIEW everywhere” in the mid 90s, the development environment was ported to a wide variety of platforms, including several video game consoles.

These console versions were never officially released, though internal beta copies are rumored to exist.

@scarletfire I'm probably going to be yelled at by saying that I really like Labview. Used it to tune my experimental setup with the Alphatrack midi mixer. Thanks @ct_Magazin for a short product info in some article back in 2007 (I think..?). Ah the times....
