Y/t chart stops showing data depending on Maximum Display Range setting

Solved!
Go to solution

The y/t graph will not display any data if I increase the Maximum Display Range setting to .8000s or higher.  The data in the file is at 5000 Hz, is this part of the problem?  I have played around with the Time Base and Measurement setting to no avail. The data is arbirary in length, but will not be longer than 3 seconds.

Hi John.... can you send me the worksheet and the datafile? You can attach as a Zip file... or send it as a private message.

Here's the scoop...

 

You have 145 blocks of data in the file. Fewer than that are sent through the Relay00.

 

When you configure the Y/t Chart for more blocks than you have, then it waits for the rest of the blocks to come in. And they are not going to come in.

One workaround is to use the "Fast Recorder" mode of the Y/t Chart, but your block size is too small (50 vs 128 minimum).  

 

I'd suggest switching to the Chart Recorder module - configure it like this... and then, because you want the trigger to reset the time to 0, use an Action module.

Configure the Action like this... it will reset the Chart to start at 0 each time the trigger opens the Relay.

Thanks again CJ!  Did not know you could reset the recorder as that was what I orignally was using...

The Action module is pretty powerful.

 

The next choice would have been to be a lot more complex, and use the X/Y chart. If the Chart Recorder works, then we won't need to talk about that.
