  1. QUOTE (zmarcoz @ Mar 25 2009, 11:23 AM) If I had submitted 1000 resumes and only had one interview, I would start asking myself what I'm doing wrong (I would have started asking after about 25 submissions to be honest). Is your resume professional and concise? Are you applying to jobs that you are actually qualified for (All your degrees are nice, but they don't automatically qualify you for senior level positions)? Do you apply with a personalized resume and cover letter or are you blanketing monster.com with 100 applications at a time? If someone Googles your name are they going to find information that could turn them off towards you, like a myspace account with a picture of you taking a bong hit (this actually happened with a guy that we were ready to bring in for an interview). Personally, I would not interview someone who only had temporary work status unless they were the only qualified candidate or unless I was prepared to sponsor them. It is costly for a company to hire and train a new employee only to find out that for some reason their green card was denied and they have to return to their country of origin.
  2. QUOTE (Fritske @ Mar 24 2009, 01:28 AM) It is in the signal processing --> signal generation palette... http://lavag.org/old_files/monthly_03_2009/post-8758-1237904088.png' target="_blank">
  3. QUOTE (rie88 @ Mar 24 2009, 12:22 AM) I would use tdms files in this situation. They are fast, compact, and indexed for faster viewing of incremental data. Search ni.com for tdms and you'll find quite a bit of information.
  4. QUOTE (NeilA @ Mar 17 2009, 05:10 AM) Check out http://forums.lavag.org/Import-Web-Service-function-and-WS-on-Java-LV-85-t11369.html' target="_blank">this thread. It might have some useful info. We had problems with our WSDL as well and got it working with a different method that I outline in the linked thread. -Toby
  5. QUOTE (neBulus @ Mar 16 2009, 07:27 AM) I like this one...it seems to be a skill that many programmers lack.
  6. QUOTE (Oliver Barrett @ Mar 13 2009, 01:09 PM) Welcome to LAVA! You can do something like this: http://lavag.org/old_files/monthly_03_2009/post-8758-1236976945.png' target="_blank"> It allows you to place your indicators wherever you want, but still pass them through a state machine (or any other architecture) on a single cluster wire. Just build a cluster constant to initialize them all.
  7. QUOTE (Mark Yedinak @ Mar 13 2009, 11:39 AM) How much free memory do you have? I ran both versions using the "Run Continuously" button and did not notice any performance lags or memory leaks, but I'm thinking that if you are running into low memory problems and having to use swap space that could slow you way down. I'm on a T7200 @ 2.0GHz with 2GB RAM for what it's worth.
  8. QUOTE (Mark Yedinak @ Mar 13 2009, 10:28 AM) I am also seeing load times of well below 1 second. Scan Lines with queues is taking nearly 0.5 seconds, but scan lines is in the hundredths of seconds. Are your real images much larger than the sample images you posted?
  9. QUOTE (Antoine Châlons @ Mar 12 2009, 06:21 AM) That is awesome!
  10. QUOTE (Maca @ Mar 12 2009, 07:43 AM) Is that a typo or an Aussie term I'm not familiar with? In any case - probably not a good idea to forward too much to your boss unless you're getting all of your TPS reports in on time.
  11. QUOTE (Cat @ Mar 11 2009, 06:36 AM) :ninja: I see. I'll try to remember you (and others in your situation) when I post code. Screenshots are good :thumbup:
  12. QUOTE (Antoine Châlons @ Mar 11 2009, 06:32 AM) :thumbup: OK
  13. QUOTE (mindmoody @ Mar 10 2009, 09:52 PM) bmoyer pointed you to a good example. Did you look at it? Do you have any specific questions about it? -Toby
  14. QUOTE (Antoine Châlons @ Mar 11 2009, 05:26 AM) Just curious...why did you use the sequence structure here?
  15. QUOTE (Cat @ Mar 11 2009, 03:25 AM) Would a viewer really help anyway? If you can't install software...
  16. QUOTE (mindmoody @ Mar 9 2009, 11:37 PM) I would start here... 1. Turn on your computer 2. Open LabVIEW 3. Click "Empty Project" Seriously though...that is a really vague question. You need to start by learning enough about LabVIEW to be able to ask a specific question. I would recommend the Basics I & II classes offered by NI, or buy LabVIEW for Everyone and go through it on your own. Either one of these methods should give you enough knowledge to write a simple serial communications control program.
  17. QUOTE (Mourad @ Mar 4 2009, 12:26 AM) You'll have to either make your own dialog, or you can use the 3-button dialog (which has an option to customize the title) and wire empty strings to the left and right buttons.
  18. QUOTE (star @ Feb 27 2009, 09:25 AM) Use Spreadsheet String to Array.vi and pass the output to your graph. If you need more help than that, http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=RTFM' rel='nofollow' target="_blank">RTFM.
  19. QUOTE (star @ Feb 27 2009, 04:32 AM) We don't know what your output string looks like, but essentially you need to convert your data to an array of numbers and pass that into your graph. Because your x-axis is just a count of data points you'll be better off using a waveform graph instead of an XY Graph. Look at the help for graphs for more info.
  20. QUOTE (Tomi Maila @ Feb 26 2009, 12:27 PM) Excellent point! Although a little luck in landing the right contracts couldn't hurt.
  21. QUOTE (crelf @ Feb 26 2009, 08:37 AM) Or 1GB would be even better It's been a long time since I used a computer running 1MB of RAM.
  22. QUOTE (Tomi Maila @ Feb 26 2009, 03:16 AM) Congratulations Tomi! And best of luck :thumbup:
  23. QUOTE (ASTDan @ Feb 23 2009, 11:35 AM) I confirmed that this doesn't work in XP with LV8.2 (that's all I had installed). What happens if you open this vi? It should look about like the screenshot I posted above, but with each character in its own comment/constant. Edited to remove attachment QUOTE (TobyD @ Feb 23 2009, 11:52 AM) I confirmed that this doesn't work in XP with LV8.2 (that's all I had installed). What happens if you open this vi? It should look about like the screenshot I posted above, but with each character in its own comment/constant. Edited to remove attachment I pulled the attachment because it appears to have done some weird things...when I closed it, it crashed LV with this error: When I relaunched LabVIEW, the other VI that I had opened looks like it has been converted to Japanese (the block diagram too)!!! I don't have time to try to reproduce the issue now, but it looks like there might be a bug here somewhere. If you want to play with it AT YOUR OWN RISK here is the VI.

  24. QUOTE (ASTDan @ Feb 23 2009, 10:07 AM) Hmm, not sure what is going on then. It works fine for me using the application font (LV 8.6 on windows vista). http://lavag.org/old_files/monthly_02_2009/post-8758-1235412709.png' target="_blank">
  25. QUOTE (ASTDan @ Feb 23 2009, 09:47 AM) Have you tried the alt code for phi (alt+237 φ or alt+232 Φ). They both work in a string constant. If you're not familiar with alt codes, simply hold down the alt key and type the number combination on the keypad, then release the alt key.
