How do I log data in a spreadsheet once every 30s?

Hello,

I'm pretty new to LabVIEW and I need to figure out how to log data into a spreadsheet once every 30s. I have attached a practice VI that is based on the actual program I am trying to update. (The only difference is that I am simulating the signal).

 

Thanks!

I hope you mean a CSV file that you can open in Excel, because writing to an actual Excel worksheet requirements familiarity with ActiveX.

 

To simulate writing to a CSV file, I would simply use a FOR loop to generate some "fake" data and try writing it to the CSV file every 30s.

 

Learn to start small.

Yes, I was referring to a CVS file. Thanks! I will try that out.
