Data and plot it

Hi
I have one dream.
I want a program to plot the data I put in the table, and then I can save the table and the plot.
the attachment is a trial. it is not very good, but it tells the concept.
thanks

  • To read & save data from serial port (write to .csv file), and plot data as waveform

    Hi,
    I've been stuck with this problem for weeks and really need some help. I've been searching a lot but I can't find a proper solution.
    I am trying to use Labview to plot and display some parameters of a data acquisition system for a project.
    The data acquisition system is connected to a computer via serial connection through COM 1 port.
    The data acquisition system sends a serial stream of data (ASCII string with baud rate 19200), as shown below (from HyperTerminal),
    01:00:26,933.24,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,
    01:00:27,931.54,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,
    The serial data stream consists of a time stamp (as 1st data), followed by 16 individual channel data, separated by comma "," and each stream ending in return "\n". Each value of the data ranges from 1 to 6 digits (value of -5000 to 15000).
     I have no problem reading this values correctly using HyperTerminal, but I have problem to plot and display individual parameters of this serial string in Labview. I want to save the entire data in  a “.csv” file corresponding to all the 16 channels with time stamp and plot each individual channel parameter in a graph with time on X-axis.
    I am relatively new to Labview hope I can learn a lot from your help.
    　Thank you

    Thank you Dennis.........
    Now I had modified the program incorporating1D array for gauge display.....but currently I have a new problem. The program is running updating the file, waveform graph and Gauge very slowly. Approximately once in every 15 seconds 16 data streams are getting updated in a bunch with gauge sticking to the last value rather than indicating real time value.

    Some questions a teacher might ask:
    What's the display setting for the "\n" string diagram constant? Why?
    Is it better to read the file one line at a time or all at once?
    What would you do to be able to stop the chart display before it runs out of data?
    What would be different if we combine the two FOR loops into one?
    How would you display the header as a multiline string instead of an array of strings?
    Why is the scan format %03x instead of %3x? Would it make a difference?
    What is the purpose of the two items of the property node?
    What would you need to change to plot the data every 50ms? (change in two places!)
    Why is the error output of the property node wired to the first FOR loop? (After all, the error value is not really used anywhere there!)
    Instead of the two "array subset" operations, we could do it with one icon. Which one? (two possibilities!)
    So... be prepared!

    You seem to select EMG voltage vs Angle(Z-axis). Is that really what you want? More resasonable would seem e.g. EMG voltage vs. time.
    If you want to process the 3D (xyz data), you probably need to add some more math). Why are you taking the absolute value? RMS does not care about the sign anyway, right?
    They you are trying an XY graph with a single point, because your Y value is only a single number. You need an equal number of points for Y.
    Here's a quick modification that graph EMG(mV) vs. time(ms) and takes the RMS of the EMG data. See if this gives you some ideas.
    Please provide more information what you want to do with the angles.

  • Trouble shooting and plotting my ECG data (The VI. is included)

    Hello Everyone
    Im trying to simulate a ECG for a project. I choose the Wavelet Transform approach as I hear it would be more accurate and easier to create.
    Ive created a sample ECG signal with noise imposed on it now Im atteplting to filter out the noise and detect and plot the real ECG data.
    Ive come to realize I can't use a simple wave graph after the array function due to types of input data.
    How do I graph my data?
    Does youguys have any idea on the proper setting to get the best reading on my multiresolution analysis.vi ?

    The outputs of the Wavelet Denoise Express VI and the Multiresolution Analysis Express VI are of waveform (dbl) type. When wired into a waveform graph, your information should populate within these graphs. Another route you could look at going for your application is mentioned in this discussion forum. It is a simulate ECG Signal Express VI, which I believe will give you the necessary inputs you are looking for. This might be a little easier to implement.

  • Dynamic Creation and Plotting in CNiGraph

    Hi,
    I would like to create a temporary CNiGraph object, plot some data, and render it to an image.  I am able to create the object dynamically (I think) but I get a runtime error when trying to plot data (using ChartY) on the graph.
    The error is in the function AfxGetAmbientActCtx.
    My code for control creation looks like:
      CNiGraph niGraph;
    CRect rect(CPoint(0, 0), m_Size); // the size of the graph
    CDC *pDC = pWnd->GetDC();
    BSTR bstrLic = :ysAllocStringLen(/* stuff to generate the license */);
    niGraph.CreateControl("CWGraph", "", WS_VISIBLE, rect, pWnd,
                                  m_staticControlID++, NULL, FALSE, bstrLic);
            //use the static control ID to ensure unique IDs
    :ysFreeString(bstrLic);
    ChartPreviewData(niGraph, pList, settings);
                  // ... some untested code to render to an image follows 
     pWnd is a CPropertySheet (which is a valid window, but I am using as a dummy to temporarily hold the graph).  ChartPreviewData does this...
     void CXyzClass::ChartPreviewData(
    CNiGraph &graph, ... some other arguments....)
                    // some code to get the data ready to put in the NI vector
    CNiReal64Vector niVector(numPoints, pBuffer);
    graph.SetChartLength(numPoints);
    // Chart data and adjust delta X to reflect sampling frequency used
    CNiPlot plot = graph.Plots.Add();
    plot.MultiPlot = TRUE;
    plot.ChartY(niVector, (double) 1/pSeries->GetFs());  // crashes
    delete pBuffer;
    When I step through in the debugger, it looks like NiGraph gets created okay.  In fact, I can see it on the dialog.  However calling ChartY is giving me a runtime error.  I suspect I am missing something to do with ActiveX but I'm not sure what.
    Thanks, Nick

  • Read from csv file and plot particular columns

    Hello,
    I`m a new user of Labview and here it comes...my first major problem.
    Maybe this has been discussed before. I’ve made a search to solve my problem first but I couldn`t find anything helpful so I `ve decided to post a new message.
    So here is my problem:
    I`m working in a small semiconductor lab where different types of nitrides are grown using proprietary reactor. The goal is to read the collected csv files from each growth in Labview and plot the acquired data in appropriate graphs.
    I have a bunch of csv files and I have to make a Labview program to read them.
    The first part of my project I`ve decided to be displaying the csv file (growth log file) under labview (which I think works fine).
    The second one is to be able to plot particular columns from the recipe in graphs in Labview (that one actually gives me a lot of trouble):
    1. Timestamp vs Temperature /columns B and D/
    2. Timestamp vs Gas flow /columns L to S/
    3. Timestamp vs Pressure /columns E,K,T,U,V/
    I`ve got one more problem. How can I convert the Timestamp shown in csv file to human readable date in labview? This actually is a big problem, because the timestamp is my x axis and I want to know at what time a particular process took place and I also want to be able to see the converted timestamp when displaying csv file at first. I`ve read a lot about time stamping in excel and timestamp in labview but I`m still confused how to convert it in my case.
    I don`t have problems displaying csv file under Labview. My problems are with the timestamp and the graphs.
    Sorry for my awful English.  I hope you can understand my problems since English is not my mother language. 
    Please find the attached files.
    If you have any ideas or suggestions I`ll be more than happy to discuss them.
    Thank you in advance.

    Waiting for your vauable reply,

    Why don't you use the Report Generation toolkit? It has plenty of Excel-related vis. You can import data from any of the worksheets and after garbaging the non-number data you can convert it to numbers as well (or if you do not have any string-cells, only numbers you can import it as a 2d numeric array by changing the array constant). If you do not wire any input to the report generation, it does not overwrite your data. (The excel sheet goes to template.)
    I just tried it with an xlsx file and worked fine.
    After importing the data you can manipulate it the way you want it, for example plotting it.

  • Plotting dynamic data but plot showing previous acquired data too

    Hi, I am trying to plot a voltage-signal graph simultaneously, as it is being acquired by the computer from the SR830 lock-in amplifier. I have used a X-Y plot and placed it inside the for loop where the data is being acquired. <It only shows me the last point instead of all the points acquired earlier too. I want to retain the earlier data plot as well instead of just the last data point but want to update the graph as the data are acquired sequentially. If I put the x-y plot outside the loop. it will acquire a set of data before plotting which is not desirable in my case, as data has to be plotted dynamically. Can u guys please suggest me a way. Am I doing something wrong? thanks in advance.

    Hello Timothy,
    As long as a LV Measurement File Read can read each file individually, I would combine them using merge signals vi.  This will combine all of the data from all of the files into a single signal.  You can then get your information from the signals (the columns of data).  I would also be sure to read from different LVM files by passing in an array of paths where the LVM files are.  This way, you will not be reading from the same file over and over again.

  • For a few months now my ical keeps jumping back and forth.  It's very hard to use my calendar as it doesn't open on today, it may stay a few seconds and then it goes backwards to random dates and forwards.  It doesn't sit still so I can see what I have on

    My iCal is driving me nuts.
    It won't sit still when I am looking at my calender.  I try holding it still with one finger, two fingers and it just moves.  It jumps to random dates and I have no confidence in it any longer.   I use my calendar all the time and this just isn't good enough.
    I have gone into the apple store and they said they hadn't seen that before.  It did it while I was there.  They restored the phone and it didn't make any difference.
    I have turned the calendar off in settings - mail - icloud - deleted and then turned back on again.  It didn't help.
    I put the Google Calendar app on in the hopes I would have a calendar that wouldn't frustrate me and it is so slow in responding, I have deleted it.
    I see online that many others are having the same problem with their iCal. 
    It would be great to know the solution.
    Please help

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!

  • After I reset my Ipod (deleted all data and settings) windows 7 doesn't recognize by ipod touch, and it doesn't appear in the itunes library or in the device menu, but it does charge. How can I get my computer to recognize it again?
