Graph of an alternating output

[Anexe]

Hey Everyone,

I'm currently investigating reading and displaying multiple signals using serial (RS 232) communication with an instrument.

So far, I have managed to implement the reading of the multiple signals and a display of the output in a 'text' format.

However, I have become stuck when it comes to displaying the output in a graphical format.

I have tried many ideas, but my latest idea was to try and use arrays to get around the alternating signals...

I have now become perplexed as to how I can get around the problem, as using the 'split signals' VI doesn't work on a 1 output signal with an alternating value.

I have attached my most current test VI as reference.

Any ideas as to how to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I can't view your VI (I'm on LV 2014), but what does your text data look like?

Nobody has your instrument and your code is full of "weird" constructs. Can you attach a VI that operates on simulated data (e.g. formatted iteration number) instead of serial reads?

Why do you have a 2D array if it only ever contains a single column of two elements? Seems way overkill.

I don't understand what you want to display or what you perceive as a problem. Please explain in much more detail.
