Display 2D array in a table, 1 row at a time

[Farracillo]

I am using a For Loop to read a serial port 40 times and display the values in a table of 40 rows and 5 columns.  I auto index the output of the For Loop to build the 2D string array. The problem is that the serial port takes too long to answer and the VI takes about two minutes to display the values in the table because it doesn't do it until the For Loop finish its 40 iterations. Is it possible to display each iteration as it executes? I mean, to pass the value of the 1st iteration to the 1st row of the table and then do the 2nd iteration, pass its value to the 2nd row of the table and so on? Thanks a lot! (Merry Christmas to the ones that celebrate it)

Yes.  Put your array indicator inside the loop.  Use the Build Array function to build up your array.  Feed the array to a shift register.
