Stroke Time Evaluation

[JacobHermance]

Using Flexlogger, I have recorded a linear actuator position, using a digital optical encoder. The linear actuator travels from 0 inches to approx 2 inches. What is the easiest way to determine stroke time from 0 in to 98% of maximum recorded travel.

Hi Jacob,

Does your data set have a Time channel that you're using to graph the stroke vs. time, or is your stroke position channel a waveform channel?

Can you post a sample data set for us to look at?

Have you tried the "Y-Axis [%]" display in VIEW?  That plus the cursor window and band cursors would give you a quick qualitative answer.  If you want a programmatic, quantitative answer, I'll need to see your data.
