Continuous data acquisition and saving in new files

Thanks for your valuable suggestions.

Thanks for the detailed reply. As I am new to LabView your reply has helped me a lot!

Actually, I do not need charts to display the waveforms. Instead, I have to apply algorithms to extract the information from the data and to store if certain content is met. 

I have to capture the data continuously and detailed analysis will be done offline later. 

I have no idea about the TDMS-saving feature directly built into the DAQmx driver. Can you please tell this with an example in detail?

I will be very thankful if you can also give an example of creating groups in TDMS files that can be accessed later for offline processing automatically (For eg in offline processing all files are called with their name right now) that will solve my problem completely. 

Thank again!

Read about TDMS and DAQmx.

To learn about the DAQmx-internal TDMS feature you could read the LabVIEW help for DAQmxConfigureLogging function and examine the corresponding example VI in the example finder!
