I want to use the arbitrary sinal generator VI to send a waveform command to a pressure valve(analog out) and then read the pressure from a transducer and overlay both plots. The waveform will repeat every couple of minutes and the plot should reset itself after each cycle. I am thinking it is a problem with my X-axis because it seems like they are reading different x values the chart is getting messed up. Thanks for the help.

Hi Ballen,
Editing your code will depend on what you want displayed on the x-axis. The Knowledge Base article on Customizing Display Format of the X and Y Axis on a Waveform Chart or Graph may be helpful for you. Also, when you use the Simulate Arbitrary Signal VI are you trying to send a random signal? It sounds like that's what your trying to do based off your description, but the current VI generates the same user defined signal repeatedly. You may want to change the Arbitrary Signal to be "X values continue" (just double click on it to change from "X values repeat") or if you want to continuosly generate a random signal, you could use the Simulate Signal express VI instead and add noise to a DC signal.
I hope that helps!
