Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Advanced motion controls sx30a8
1. Analog Servo Drive SX30A8
Description
Power Range
The SX30A8 PWM servo drive is designed to drive three phase brushless motors with sine wave current at a high switching frequency. The drive requires two sinusoidal command signals with a 120-degree phase shift (external commutation). The phase angle must correspond to the position of the motor rotor, while the signal amplitude controls the motor torque. The SX30A8 interfaces directly with digital controllers. The drive is fully protected against over-voltage, over- current, over-heating, and short-circuits, and requires only a single unregulated DC power supply (all logic and control voltages are generated internally). A red/green LED and two digital outputs indicate operating status.
See Part Numbering Information on last page of datasheet for additional ordering options.

Tuning With Through-hole Components
In general, the drive will not need to be further tuned with through-hole components. However, for applications requiring more precise tuning than what is offered by the potentiometers and dipswitches, the drive can be manually modified with through-hole resistors and capacitors as denoted in the above table. By default, the through-hole locations are not populated when the drive is shipped. Before attempting to add through-hole components to the board, consult the section on loop tuning in the installation notes on the manufacturer’s website. Some general rules of thumb to follow when adding through-hole components are:
• A larger resistor value will increase the proportional gain, and therefore create a faster response time.
• A larger capacitor value will increase the integration time, and therefore create a slower response time.
Proper tuning using the through-hole components will require careful observation of the loop response on a digital oscilloscope to find the optimal through-hole component values for the specific application.
†Note: Damage done to the drive while performing these modifications will void the warranty.
