O record the data of a graph in a file

Hello,
I am initial in LabView and I would have liked to know how I will be able to make to record data which I visualize on a graph in a binary file for example with his date and his hour?
Thank you in advance for the future answer.

There are several options, depending on what you want to do with your data, listed by easiest to hardest.
Read it into a spreadsheet (e.g. Excel, OpenOffice Calc) - Use the Write LabVIEW Measurement File Express VI and pick the tab separated text format. I know it is not binary, but it is the most compatible form of data storage - anything can read it.
Read it later into LabVIEW, DIAdem, or Excel - Use the Write LabVIEW Measurement File Express VI or the Waveform Storage VIs and pick the TDMS format (not TDM). This stores the data in a proprietary binary format optimized for streaming to disk. This is the highest performing option for large numbers of waveforms simultaneously. This requires LV8.2 or above. Use TDM with earlier versions. A plug-in is required for Excel, but it is available on the NI website.
Use the data with one of NI's waveform editors or soft front panels - Use the NI-HWS VIs. This is the highest performing option for small numbers of waveforms. Since it is based on HDF5, it can also be read by other programs (e.g. Matlab, Mathematica). It also has compression and supports file sizes over 2GBytes in LV versions before 8.0.
Use the data in a custom fashion - There are very few instances that cannot be handled by the above methods, but if you want to roll your own system, use the LabVIEW file primitives. Save your t0, dt, and waveform in a sequential manner and it will be easy to get them from disk. If the t0 is in timestamp format, you can decode it on the other end by knowing its format. The timestamp is a fixed point 128 bit number with the decimal point in the center. It is the time in seconds since midnight, Jan 1, 1904 GMT.

Problem when recording the data using BDC for Tcode CJ02.

Dear Experts,
When i am trying to record the data for TCODE : CJ02 i need to enter the project Definition and enter the WBS element it takes me to the screen then i should select the WBS element and attach a file for that selected WBS element . The option for me to attach the attachment of file will be available on the application area(Services for the Object).
Now the problem when i try to do recording in SHDB this option like create attachement is not visible in the recodring . Kindly suggest me what can i do such that i attach the file for the particular project def and WBS element.
Either suggest any function module or other procedure .......
Regards,
Sana.

Hi,
in BDC each and every action is recording. If your press enter in same screen that also recorded once aging may be this is your case repeating field values will appear. we can solve the problem for repeat fields like below.
suppose in your excel having repeated field X1 X2 X3 the X2 contains repeated field X3 means delete the X3 field.
Now In your itab having X1 and X2 fields. While in the LOOP the ITAB pass the X2 field to repeated the fields.
LOOP at ITAB to WA.
CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
bdcdata_wa-fnam = 'BDC_CURSOR'.
bdcdata_wa-fval = 'RM08M-EBELN'.
APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
bdcdata_wa-fnam = 'INVFO-BLDAT'.
bdcdata_wa-fval = wa-X2." 1st time pass the X2 fields
APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
bdcdata_wa-fnam = 'INVFO-BLDAT'.
bdcdata_wa-fval = wa-X2." pass the same value to repeated field
APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
Endloop.
Hope you can understand.

How do you show the data in Illustrator Graphs

How can I show the data in my graphs? I input the data and it creates the bar graph but doesn't show the actual numbers used to create the bars. I have to put them in manually. Anyone know?

Sorry but I am just not seeing how to get the data used to plot the graph to show without manually putting in the numbers after it creates the graph. Help details not very helpful. I can show the Value Axis info, the Category Axis info, and legend info but not the numbers used to plot the bars.

I need an app or software that records the date/time each time a write something and press enter. This needs to be quick so I can continue writing right after I press enter, and the date/time is inserted for each word. Does this sort of software exist?

How to import the data in a .xls or .xlsx file into a oracle database table

Hi,
Please tell me how to import the data in a .xls or .xlsx file into a oracle database table in Oracle 10gR2 using Oracle Warehouse Builder 10gR2.

....can we do something through Non-Oracle->ODBC?Yes, it is possible, look at this thread
[SQLServer access from AIX Warehouse builder|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=2502982]
If your server (with target DB and OWB runtime) is on Windows OS this configuration will be simpler - you can use single server.
And additional link on OWB blog (with 11g transparent gateway)
[http://blogs.oracle.com/warehousebuilder/2008/01/11g_heterogeneous_agent.html]
(configuring nonoracle connection with 10g generic connectivity very similar to 11g gateway)

How to read the date and time information of a file by labview

how to read the date and time information of a file by labview? for example, created time and modified time.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

if you need to know the last modification date of file:-
"Functions->File I/O->Advanced File Functions->File/Directory Info.vi"
This vi returns the value of file's last modification date. This is returned as U32 number. To see it in MM/DD/YY format you must create the indicator, right-click on it and select "Format & Precision" item from drop-down menu. Then select "Time and Date" format there.
Thanks as kudos only

Is there anyway to pull the data from an iPhone/iTunes backup file?

Is there anyway to pull the data from an iPhone/iTunes backup file so it can be read and imported into a DROID phone. Have a customer with a dead iPhone and they went out and purchased a DROID as a replacement and would like all their contacts to be imported into the DRIOD. Is there any software out there that can do this?

Here is one that can at least get at the data: iPhone Backup Extractor
There may well be others of better value. Google is your friend.
You'll probably need to do something with the data you can extract, like add it to Outlook, rather than being able to send it directly to the driod.

How can I have a program prompt a user to input a selected number of simultaneous (different devices run off com/rs232 ports) and be able to compile all the data and/or graph it simultaneously?

I have a project that I'm working on that I could use some help on.
Some background on it is I'm taking data from a balance via RS-232 (can be a selectable list of balances), and then communicating with them on their own separate COM port. I need these to then run in parallel to then take masses in regular increments and then output them to a graph and/or TDMS file.
What I'm trying to have is that a subVI prompts the user to how many simultaneous runs will be going.
Then I will want multiple pop prompts (one for each simultaneous run) which will have initial data input (data cluster) and then associate these with the COM port and the specified balance.
I initially thought of utilizing a For Loop this way but I can't get these windows to pop up multiple times while storing their own values in say a cluster array. Can anyone give me any ideas to get me a little further?

Cameron,
I've created a prompt for the user to select the number or runs to be run simultaneously.
This then should trigger the amount of prompts the user needs to input - ie VISA resource, and headers to label the "samples".
I want this to be done in multiples (somewhere around 1-10 simultaneous runs - bounded by the program) so that data points from multiple sources can be taken and graphed/saved to file. I just am having issues with the loop situation to be able to keep prompting the user X times and also output the data to the front panel. Originally i thought I could somehow manipulate a tab control container but I'm getting roadblocked.
Does that help you understand what I'm trying to do?
I've attached an image of what I want the user to input for each sampling.

What is the data type for the Data Dashboard XY Graph?

Hey all,
I am playing with the new Data Dashboard (!!) on my iPad 2 and am having trouble setting up the shared variables that host data to the XY Graph.
On my PC, in my Project (inside of a variable library) I have set up shared variables for all of the other controls/indicators available in the app; They all work great. However, I have not been able to identify the data type that is for the XY Graph in Data Dashboard. Of course, inside LabVIEW, I use a cluster of 2 arrays; this is not an available data type that I can select while creating a new variable on the hosting side. I have even gone so far as to create a custom control from my XYGraph in LabVIEW and then creating the data type "From Custom Control..." with no success.
What gives? Am I missing something obvious? Thanks for the help!!
Tom
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Great question, Aerogoob.
The XY graph can be bound to a 1d array of "points", where each point is a cluster of two numerics (X and Y). To create a shared variable of this type, you can set the data type to "From Custom Control..." in the shared variable properties dialog. Of course, first you'll have to build the custom control of the correct type: array of cluster of two numerics.
If any of that doesn't make sense, please post back and we can walk you through it in more detail.
Also, just for completeness, the chart indicator can be bound to a scalar numeric or to an array of numerics. The graph indicator can only be bound to an array of numerics.

Good morning,
Without the instrument it might be hard for others to help
troubleshoot the problem. Was there a
specific LabVIEW programming question you had, are you having problems with the
instrument communication, are there errors?
I’d like to help, but could you provide some more specific information
on what problems you are encountering, and maybe accompany that with a simple
example which demonstrates the behavior?
In general we don’t we will be unable to open specific code and debug,
but I’d be happy to help with specific questions.
I did notice, though, that in your logging VI you have at
least one section of code which appears to not do anything. It could be that a small section of code, or
a wire was removed and the data is not being updated correctly (see pic below). Is your file being opened properly? Is the data being passed to the file
properly? What are some of the things
you have examined so far?
Sorry I could not provide the ‘fix’, but I’m confident that
we can help. Thanks for posting, and
have a great day-

How to record the data against time?

Hi there,
I am doing a real-time measurement, and i get a 1-D dataflow from the loading cell without time stamp. I know how to record it and save it to a file. However, how to store the data against time? I know I can use "get date time in seconds.vi" to obtain the system time, but how to integrate it with the dataflow from the loading cell? it would be best if I can view the dataflow changing with respect to the system time in a waveform chat.
Thanks.
Mike

You are doing a measurement with what? NI DAQ card or something else? The chart and saving to file are two different things. For an example of displaying time in a chart, look at the example called Real-Time Chart. How exactly do you want the time/measurement data written to file?

How do I record the data from the accelerometer on myRio

For example, using the template from myRio project for the accelerometer, I wanted to record the x,y,z values and store it in an array for future calculations( like k = x+y * z for every 0.01 sec). How do I do that? I tried using the array block diagram but an error of different data format came up. I tried using a table where i wire x to the table indicator, still same error. Can anyone explain how Labview works?

Hi Yourong,
you really should attach your VIs or even a picture (snippet) of the block diagram…
- To store data in an array you might use the autoindexing of a loop.
- You may use shift registers and a BuildArray function.
- You may use shift registers and ReplaceArraySubset with a pre-defined array.
All this is explained in the LabVIEW 101 offered by NI. Please go throught the basics courses! (ni.com/gettingstarted/labviewbasics)

How to select the data from DB and write into File?

Hi Experts,
Can any one please help me,
I want to write the data from a table "T1" from Data Base to one file in windows.
This functionality i need to achive in SSIS package through script component and Execute SQL task if it's passible.
If any other way is there please help me.

through script component and Execute SQL task if it's passible
The easier way is to use a "Data Flow" Task with a "OleDB Data Source" pointing the the SQL Server table / query and a "Flat File Destination" to export to a file.
