I need to connect these to programs and am unsure how to do it

[Anonymous]

I have been trying to connect my two programs in order to have
continuously aquired data from four channels which I have in the cont
aqu spreadsheet file but instead of the data being shown horizontal
across the intensity graph I would like it to be split into four
channels that are seperated into four quadrants and this I have shown
in the wed.vi. Can anyone tell me how I can connect them to have the
program work? I have so far been unsuccessful.

Let me see if I understand you correctly. Basically you are trying to include data acquired from one VI and include it in another. By making your continuous data acquisition VI a sub-VI and placing it on the block diagram of wed.vi you can read data directly from the spreadsheet file. You will want to use the File I/O VIs to read data from the spreadsheet file. These VI can be found in the File I/O function panel by right-clicking on the block diagram and following Functions->All Functions->File I/O. Here is an example that may or may not help:


Continuous Acquire and Chart to Spreadsheet

If this fails to help you pl
ease post again with further questions. Thanks!

ps. Array manipulation may be needed to get the data from each of the four channels to display as desired on the intensity chart. Post again if you have questions about that as well.
