Graphing Waveform Data

Complete the following steps to display waveform data on a single-plot waveform graph.

  1. Select a waveform graph located on the Controls»Graph palette, and place it on the front panel.
  2. Build a block diagram with the following objects:
  3. Wire the x/y output of the Divide function to the x input of the Sine function.
  4. Wire the sin(x) output of the Sine function to the waveform graph terminal. An auto-indexing tunnel appears where the wire intersects the loop border.
  5. Wire the iteration terminal of the For Loop to the x input of the Divide function.
  6. Right-click the y input terminal of the Divide function and select Create»Constant from the shortcut menu. A numeric constant appears.
  7. Enter 10 in the constant and press the <Enter> key.

    Macintosh and UNIX Press the <Return> key.
  8. Right-click the count terminal of the For Loop and select Create»Constant from the shortcut menu. A numeric constant appears.
  9. Enter 100 in the constant and press the <Enter> key.

    Macintosh and UNIX Press the <Return> key.
  10. Run the VI.

Refer to the Waveform Graph VI in the examples\general\graphs\gengraph.llb for an example of graphing waveform data.
