Including scaling information in binary file, which can be plotted in graph

[Shrikant]

I need to plot a graph from a from a bin file, I am able to plot the graph using read binary file vi but the scaling is nowhere close to what it needs to be.

Its in auto scaling mode, if I set the values manually by giving maximum and minimum values the graph disappears,

I believe it has something to do with some missing header file not included in the binary file as of now.

Can anyone help , I need to know , how to add header in the binary file so that I include the information of scales or units of measurements of the data which has to be plotted.

Hi Shrikant,

you include "header information" the same way as you include "data" in your binary file: You simply write that information to the file...

When trying to plot "the file" you read both parts (header and data), one after the other!
