How do you find an average of peak values in a chart?

[Student12]

I would ideally like to display a value alongside a chart that represents the average value of every three peaks.  Right now I am only able to display a live value for the peaks. Is this possible?

Well, if you have the three values, how do you find the average?

Hint: Look in the Mathematics -> Probability & Statistics palette.

Or you could also simply do it the brute force way of adding and dividing.

Are you using the peak detector VI linked below? Using the index of peak locations and their corresponding values, you could try using a loop to build an array of the peak locations then averaging every 3 indexes of the array.

Is there anyway you could show an example of how to do that?

This is what I have so far

Are you doing a moving average of the peaks of your signal?
