I am using the function generator example

Question

i am using the function generator example to send sine, triangular, sawtooth waves to oscilloscope.
I would like to send not only the symmetric but also unsymmetric amplitude of each wave.for example the upper peak of the amplitude, i could adjust as 2 volts and the lower peak as 3 volts or vice versa.how it works in function genartor example.Please note the i am using data acquisition card AT- MIO-16XE-50 for this purpose.please tell me with some example.

Answer 1

To add a terminal to the connector pane, right click on vi icon and select show connector. Notice that the mouse pointer turns to a wiring tool when over the connector. Click on a small box inside the pane and then click on a front panel control or indicator to connect that box to the control/indicator. Then repeat for the next control/indicator. Do this until all the inputs (controls) and outputs (indicators) you need are defined. Normally, all inputs are on the left half and all outputs are on the right half, and Error In is connected to the bottom left box, and Error Out is connected to the bottom right box. You can change the terminal pattern by right clicking on the connector pane and pointing to pa
ttern and then selecting a pattern. To make the graph as an output, click on the top right box then click on the waveform graph.
As for continuous update, put the graph inside a loop where you generate your waveform and wire the output to the graph. As long as the loop is running, you will get a continuous update. The Y axis can be configured for amplitude and the X axis for time. Right click on the graph and select properties. Play with this to become familiar with all aspects.
