Overview
Coding that exemplifies how to store in a TDSM File the scales stored in NI MAX.
Description
This code takes the data from all of the custom scales stored in Measurement and Automation Explorer and categorizes and stores them in a TDMS file. Each scale is stored in a group and the parameters, such as the slope and intercept of a liner scale, are stored as the data in that group. The name, scale type, units and description are stored as properties of the group. The program uses an auto indexed for loop to scan through all the scales, and requires no user input aside from the file destination.
Requirements
LabVIEW 2012 (or compatible)
Steps to Implement or Execute Code
1. Run the VI.
2. When the window pops up, select the desired path and use a name for a file with extension ".tdms"
