How do I get an XY Chart to display properly while using embedded loop

s to periodically read multiple channels of similar data? (multi-Y versus specified time) The plot just becomes a point or a single plot of all values taken at one scanning of all channels. I want multiple plots over time updated at the time of scanning.I have also stored my data in a daily text file that is tab delimited. The text files consists of a row of text column headers, a blank row and then rows of data. The data rows are mixed data types. The first column is a date/time such as Mar 1, 2002 12:01 pm. The remaining columns are numeric data. I can't seem to get my data to plot properly in an XY chart from memory and am having problems parsing the data with mixed data types in the data r
ows. The format I am using works great for viewing the history files in Excel.
When I plot the data, I either get a single point or a a series of points for a single reading of all channels or I get a line connecting all data for that single scan reading. What am I doing wrong? At this point, I don't care if I read the data from the file to plot it or if I can just get Labview to plot correctly as the data is gathered without going to the history file.
As noted in the summary question, I have embedded loops in my applicaiton. I have a while-loop that determines the scan rate and keeps the program running until it is turned off. Inside of that, I have a for-loop (in a subVI) which scans all my data channels.
Thanks for your help.

s to periodically read multiple channels of similar data? (multi-Y versus specified time) The plot just becomes a point or a single plot of all values taken at one scanning of all channels. I want multiple plots over time updated at the time of scanning.XY plots expect a cluster containing two 1D arrays for the X and Y
coordinates of the individual points. If you want multiple plots you can
supply an array of these clusters but you have to resupply the "x" array
for each of them.
Hope that helps,

  • How do you get IDcs5 to open and display properly??

    Purchased InDesign CS5 and it worked well for the first few months then it decided not to open up properly onscreen? Now when opening all I ever get is a tiny portion of the tool bar appearing in the upper left corner of the screen. If I use the 'expand' button it only fills the screen with a completely blank page which is of no use. So I'm left to resort to manually clicking and dragging the toolbar to open the workspace to fill the screen......even then, it tends to 'snap back' to the tiny toolbar in the upper left corner? This is very annoying and frustrating to say the least! I'm working in a windows environment running Windows 7 if that makes any difference. I've searched but there appears to be no fix for this? Why does it not just open up on screen properly like every other program??? Why can't the folks at ADOBE fix this? The only reason I'm using this program is because one of our biggest clients insists on using InDesign, otherwise I'd dump it! Does anyone know the cause or fix for this? Sure would appreciate it! Thanks!

    @Peter – I cannot tell what's going on here, because I'm working on a Mac OSX 10.6.8.
    I've seen such a thing in InDesign CS4, but not in InDesign CS5.5 anymore.
    However, maybe it is possible to resize the main window by scripting its bounds.
    For that, one file must be opened and its window must be resized with JavaScript. At least on a Mac. Could be different on Windows, because some UI elements behave different from OS to OS.
    To get the right values for the bounds you could do the following:
    Start InDesign, maximize it manually, open a new document. You need not to save it.
    Then start the following line of code, that will read out the bounds of the window and present them as text in a "palette" type of window:
    #targetengine "session";
    //Get the bounds and convert them to a String object:
    var myMessageString = String(app.documents[0].windows[0].bounds);
    var w=new Window("palette","ReadOutBoundsOfWindow:");
    var e=w.add("edittext",[0,0,200,50],myMessageString,{multiline: true,scrolling:true});
    e.active = true;
    w.show();
    As a result you'll get a string of 4 numbers in a "palette" highlighted.
    Copy/paste the values together with separating commas to your text editor or the ESTK.
    Currently I'm on a MacBook Pro and the numbers I will get with that method are: 22,0,999,1680.
    The numbers will be different, depending on your screen size and resolution. They are values for pixels in the form: [top, left, bottom, right].
    Now you can close the palette.
    That was just the preparation for the following lines of code, that will set the bounds.
    Every time after you restarted InDesign, you could execute the following script (you can assign a keyboard shortcut to it):
    app.documents.add();
    //Exchange the values in the brackets with YOUR values you obtained with the other script.
    //Thiese values set the working window to a specific size [top, left, bottom, right]:
    app.documents[0].windows[0].bounds = [22,0,999,1680]; //Thiese are the values of my specific MacBook Pro.
    //Now we don't need the dummie document anymore. Close it:
    app.documents[0].close(SaveOptions.NO);
    Like I said, it's working on a Mac.
    Don't know if it will on MS Windows.

  • How can I get TV show titles to display properly in the video app

    Hi,
    I have an iPad (1) which I have updated to iOS5.
    I have noticed that in the Video app, TV shows that I have created from my own DVDs only show the season and not the show title, but have a leading comma before the season as though something is missing.
    As an example, say I have episodes of Angel Season 3 on my iPad.  The title bar at the top of the page only says " , Season 3" instead of "Angel, Season 3"
    This doesn't happen with iTunes purchased content which appears to display as expected.  However I've looked through all the tags and can't see anything I'm missing.
    Has anyone experienced the same?  Is there a solution - even if it involves new tags?  I previously got all my tags working really well across iTunes, iPad and Apple TV so this is a bit frustrating for me.
    Thanks,
    Calvin

    What kind of local files are you trying to open and what kind of content is on the pages?
    Are that files that you've saved from the internet?

  • I lost my iPhone device, how can I get my data back on another one without using an iCloud backup just back up on i Tunes, Please Help.

    I lost my iPhone device, how can I get my data back on another one without using an iCloud backup just back up on i Tunes, Please Help.??

    You can find the backup files and then copy them to a safe place if you are worrying about this.
    iTunes places the backup files in these places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    The "~" represents your Home folder. If you don't see Library in your Home folder, hold Option and click the Go menu.
    Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then press Return.
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, then choose Run. In the search bar, type %appdata%, then click OK.

  • How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro?

    How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro? Or am I SOL?
    Hardware Overview:
      Model Name:    MacBook Pro

      Processor Name:    Intel Core i7
      Processor Speed:    2.8 GHz
      Number of Processors:    1

      L2 Cache (per Core):    256 KB
      L3 Cache:    4 MB

      Boot ROM Version:    MBP61.0057.B0F
      SMC Version (system):    1.57f18

    You can't. Theoretically, Thunderbolt devices that only transfer video and audio should work with Mini DisplayPort MacBooks like yours, but it's not the case of the Thunderbolt Display. Its firmware doesn't allow it to be used with non-Thunderbolt Macs, so you can't use the Thunderbolt Display with the Mid 2010 MacBook Pro.
    Instead, you have to look for another screen, or you can get an adapter and connect the MacBook Pro to a TV

  • How can I get audio to play from my TV when using hdmi cable?  Video looks great, just no sound.

    How can I get audio to play from my TV when using hdmi cable?  Video looks great, just no sound.
    I've tried plugging the hdmi into the TV directly and the receiver.
    I get video every time.  HBO to Go , Xfinity, ABC, Youtube, etc...
    just no audio.  Any suggestions? 
    I've tried starting the apps then plugging in the hdmi cable.
    I never tried this before I upgraded to IOS 5.

    Claudiamil-
    I had not tried it with mine since upgrading to iOS 5, so I just did.  I'm using a small Vizio HDTV.  I did not try YouTube, but did try several videos and musical numbers.  In all cases there was sound, including stereo when the source had it.
    I assume you are getting sound from the iPad when the adapter is not connected, so the volume is not turned down.  Dah*veed's suggestion to reset may be what you need.

  • I just lost all my contacts on the ipod2 ...how do I get them back? They just disappeared while I was typing in a new contact.

    I just lost all my contacts on the ipod2 ...how do I get them back? They just disappeared while I was typing in a new contact.  Help!!

    joephilipose,
    If the contacts are still in Address Book on your computer, but just not on the phone, you can tell iTunes to force replace the contacts on your phone with those from your computer. You can do this by going into the Info tab when your iPhone is connected, and checking the Contacts box under the Advanced section at the bottom of the page.
    You may also want to backup your Address Book information as well. It's a good idea to make periodic backups of your contact and calendar information in case information accidentally gets deleted or changed. You can find out how to backup your Address Book data here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad961.html
    To backup your iCal information, follow the steps in this article:

    NicholasLiban -
       When you use the Lion restore as described, it does a fresh install on the hard drive that you can select at the beginning of the process.  This provides a complete install of the very latest version of Lion, including the recovery partition.  The drive that you choose for the installation destination winds up like what you would have on a brand new computer from Apple.

  • How do I get my iPod to talk with my iMac using FaceTime?

    I know it's going to be something annoyingly obvious, BUT, how do I get my iPod to talk with my iMac using FaceTime? Both appear to work just fine with other emails, have made calls out to others using email addresses with both the iPod and the iMac. Have recieved calls from others on both iPod and iMac using phone numbers and email addresses. Just can't call my self as it were. Both the iPod and the iMac use the same email address, is this my problem? How do I get it work? (it's for my daughter so she can talk and see her mother when she under goes cancer treatment).

    Yes, having the same FT calling email address is the problem. It like trying to make a phone call to your your phone from your phone.
    On one device add another email address for FT and then uncheck or delete the Apple ID email address the Apple ID call email adddress on the device.
    On the iPod go to SettingsFaceTime>You can be Reached At

    You need to use the CHAT link in support to reach Adobe staff. Be sure you know the product name you are trying to cancel, Adobe have lots of products, several converters etc. I think it is ExportPDF you have, most likely.

    How do I get my image numbers to display as imported like they used to? Can no longer make Events or view old events as before either.
    If this is replacing Aperture and previous iPhoto it is USELESS...WAY fewer options for editing available. New "Photos" is a piece of JUNK!

    Hi.
    I have just migrated my library from Aperture to photos. All seems to have gone smoothly, except for one thing. All of my photos are 'untitled', whereas in both Aperture, and previously iPhoto, the filename was used for the title. If I hit CMD+I and get info, the title is still there as the filename, as I use the filename for all titles.
    Is there a way to batch copy all filenames as photo titles, this was done automatically in Aperture and iPhoto, as when photos were imported the filename was used automatically.
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks.
