How to display the time stamp in a data log table

[RyanWu]

Hello,

     I want to display data during the data acquisition process. How do I  add the time stamp as one of the column in the 'Result Table' located at bottom left of the example code?

Thanks,

Ryan

 I inserted the portion you added to my program and it worked but not exactly the way I want. It added the time and date when I start the data acquision. But I want the time stamp to be shown on every single row. Please see attached image.Thanks.

If you right click on the express build table , you will see that there is an option to include time data. This will write time data for each signal. You can hide the etra columns or modify the express VI to only write a single time data column. Right clock on the express VI and select 'Open Front Panel' to convert it to a regular VI that you can edit.

Skipping the express VI altogether is another option. A table is nothing more than a 2D string array.

Dennis,

      Could you give a sample?

Thanks,

Here's an example of using the regular table instead of the express. You would have to convert your dynamic data to a scalar with the Convert From Dynamic Data function.
