Write data to text file on command using trigger

Hi there
I'm kinda new to using Labview, and i seek some advices. 
I've got this program, which is used to read from a usb-device (6215). It measures the voltage at an input channel on the usb-device, and processes it, and finally writes the data to a txt file. I want to control when it writes the data (only one instance/ measurement at a time) via a trigger. 
The problem is, that the trigger does not work. It always writes to the file i have specified. Can anyone help me getting this right?
Furthermore, if someone have any suggestions how to make the data in the text file more readable (i'dd suggest using colums - but how?) i would greatly appreciate it. Maybe converting to an exel-document could be the answer?
 Thank you in advance, Troels
Ps:
Hope you can see past the danish text

Your true and false cases are identical and the file write is outside of the case statement. The boolean trigger does nothing. Why don't you try putting the file write inside the true case statement and nothing in the false case? You wouls also place the DAQmx Read inside the true case.
If you are not going to use an event structure (but you should), place a Wait (ms) function inside the loop.

  • How to export bulk data in text file

    Dear,
    We have an requirement to get data from GL CONTAINING below tables, but it's taking lot of time, could you share the best way to get data in text file as quick as possiable.
    from gl_je_headers_v,gl_je_lines,GL_JE_CATEGORIES
    ,gl_code_combinations_v
    where gl_je_headers_v.je_header_id = gl_je_lines.je_header_id

    and gl_code_combinations_v.CHART_OF_ACCOUNTS_ID = 50349
    AND gl_je_headers_v.PERIOD_NAME = 'SEP-2012'

    it's based on formatting data in text file
    you can use utl_file but it's row by row process your data
    you can try spool

    I am trying spool more than 50 columns from a table into flat file. Because of more column lengths in few columns, i am getting space. There are so many columns with the same issue. I want to remove that space.so that, data can fit perfectly in one line in .txt file without any wrap text.

  • Deleting data from text files

    Hi there,
    I am having a real battle trying to delete data from a text file I am using. There seems to be this giant cloud with Java, where there is no real easy way to delete text from a file??
    I have a JFrame with two textfields on it where you enter the username and pcname. There is a OK button once you have entered those details.
    On action event I would like those two details, to be removed from the text file that has been read in.
    I have a text file like this:
    bob
    pc1
    bill
    pc2
    The data above gets written no problem, one at at a time using the below.
    File f = new File("\\c:\\filename.txt");
    String strToWrite;
    try
    FileOutputStream fstr = new FileOutputStream(f);
    strToWrite = username1+ '\r'+'\n' ;
    byte[] bytes = strToWrite.getBytes(); fstr.write(bytes);
    strToWrite = pcname1 + '\r'+'\n' ;
    byte[] bytes2 = strToWrite.getBytes(); fstr.write(bytes2);
    strToWrite = username2+ '\r' +'\n' ;
    byte[] bytes3 = strToWrite.getBytes(); fstr.write(bytes3);
    strToWrite = pcname2 + '\r'+'\n' ;
    byte[] bytes4 = strToWrite.getBytes(); fstr.write(bytes4);
    catch (IOException e)
    System.out.println("Error -- " + e.toString());
    To read them back in I have made the follwoing:
    BufferedReader br= null;
    Count = 0;
    try
    br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream("\\c:\\filename.txt")));
    String s = "";
    while((s=br.readLine()) != null )
    Count = 1;     
         //System.out.println("Data is " + s);
         inboundtext = s;
         if ( Count == 1 )
    break;
    while((s=br.readLine()) != null )
    //System.out.println("Data is " + s);
    inboundtext = s;
    Count = 2;
    if ( Count == 2 )
    break;
    catch(IOException ie)
    finally
    try
         if(br!=null) br.close();
    catch(Exception e)
    Now the above I know, is reading each line of the text file one at a time.
    Now what I would like is that when the text that we got from the textfields, using getText(), be removed from the file without destroying the rest of the records in there? Why is it so easy to add and replace files, but not do any deleting from them?
    please help!!

    sorry, FileOutputStream fstr = new FileOutputStream(f);
    should be FileOutputStream fstr = new FileOutputStream(f, true);

    this sample uses the local database feature: 'LINQ to SQL', available to Windows Phone 7.1 and 8.0 Silverlight applications, instead of simple file storage but even if you choose to stick with simple file storage I believe you should be able to adapt the
    networking related portions of the sample to your particular application.

  • Writing data in text file..

    1. check the file name in D:\\temp\\test.txt
    2. if it exists, then open file. if there is data, then read data. after the last record, it writes new data.
    3. if it does not exist, create text.txt file and write data into text.txt file.
    so far, I have a code..
    import java.io.*;
    import java.util.*;
    public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    String filename="test";
    String format = "%1$-9s%2$-3s%3$-30s%4$-30s%5$-30s\n";
    String arraydata[] = { "John", "F.", "Kennedy", " ", "t", "John2", "F2.", "Kennedy2", " ", "t2"};
    String cnt_id ="2";
    int cnt_orderid = Integer.valueOf(cnt_id);
    try
    PrintStream ps = new PrintStream(new FileOutputStream("D:\\temp\\"+filename+".txt"));
    for (int i=1; i<cnt_orderid; i++)
    ps.println(String.format(format, (Object[])arraydata)); // write in test.txt file
    ps.close();
    catch (Exception e)
    System.out.println(e);
    my question is..
    1. how to check the file exists or not
    2. how to write the data in the new line after the last data in the file.

    1. Use a File object.
    File file = new File("someFile.txt");
    if (file.exists()) { ... }2. Consider using FileWriter; the constructor allows you to append to the end of the file:
    FileWriter fileWriter = new FileWriter(file, true);Michael

    Kindly Help.
    Thanks in advance

    We didn't say it doesn't work. We said it isn't supported.
    There are a number of other ways to make a PDF. The one which would
    give the most control is if your application directly printed to GDI,
    controlling the font directly. This could print to Adobe PDF.
    You could look for an application that gives control of font for
    printing.
    You could use a text-to-PostScript system and distill the result. You
    could even look for a non-Adobe text-to-PDF.
    Working in the unsupported and dangerous world you chose, the font
    size for text conversion is set (and this is very bad design from
    Adobe) in the settings for Create PDF > From Web Page. There is no API
    to this.
