How to plot a graph curve 3d with these conditions??

[sssssss]

Hi,

I am using labview 5.1 and i am posting all doubts which had appeared.

I am goingo to explain the program and the situation.

I am reading 16 channels:  15 termistors and one sensor for noise.

I have already done a graph with Temperature & Termistors.(X Y) (Temperature in aix Y,and ecah termistor individualy (15) in aix X).This graph, is like a bargraph and i have done fitting.

What i am not obtaining, is plot a curve 3D (each channel of termistors,Temperature, and the hour).

For example: I begin the test now 9:30 10 and i have the temperature of each termistor, 9:30 20 i have to plot in the same graph 3d the temperatures and the hour (9:30 20).

Could you help me??

Thanks a lot and sorry by my ensglish.

Hi Rafael,

As you might already know, we released LabVIEW 7.1 last year and it is far better than LabVIEW 5.1 ....please consider upgrading.

As for your issue, I am not sure if I am understanding you correctly.  You have a graph (bar graph) that has one bar for each thermistor and the height of the bar represents the temperature. Now you somehow want to bring in the time as a third axis on the same graph?? Please explain. Also be advised that the waveform graph is 2 dimensional ...it cannot have three axes.

Hi Ankita,

I have to use LabView 5.1 because it is the only verion which my university has.

Well, it is exactllly as you thought but the other graph which i have to plot it isn't a waveform graph,needs to be a 3d curve.(temperature,termistors,and time). It is a expansion of a bargrpah that i had built.

Thanks e continue helping me.

Help me please!!!!!

Thanks..

If necessary i coul send the vi.

HI rafael,

There is  a 3d surface graph example in the Examples that ship with LabVIEW 5.1. Is that example not helpful? Where are you running into problems?

If the problem is specific to your code and not in the general understanding of 3D surface graphs, please post a  simplified version of your code that isolates the problem and I will do my best to help you.

Hi,

The example of 3d graph surface is not helpful,i will say why.

I want to plot many curves, aix x = temperature of each termistor,aix y = termistors (14 total),aix z= time.

I am doing the aquisition every 1 minute.So to each 1 minute ,i want to plot a curve .And if i did the aquisition in 10 minutes,i want 10 curves.The last curve has to be the curve referent from the aquisition on the fist minute.

Sorry by my english.

I am sending a piece of my code.

Thanks a lot

Rafael

ps: i will write betther tomorrow explaining details.

Hi,

I am not sure if I understood your last post. I still cannot understand what specific problem you are facing. In any case, please post your VI (not a snapshot) and that will give me a better idea.
