Input has an Unit for example(A,V,km),does the "formula node" work with it?

[Gnurt]

Is it possible to use the "Formelknoten"(formula node), while the input variable has an Unit for example (Ampere,Volts and so on!)?

Please answer the question in englisch or in german!

Thanks very much!

Unfortunately, no. The formula node is unit-unaware. You'll need to strip the unit (using the "Convert Unit" function) before passing the wire into the formula node.

This is one of many unit-related behaviors that we would like to improve in a future version of LabVIEW.

thank you, but how to convert the unit?

I like to work with with unit, how can i deal with this problem!

Hello gnurt,

to convert a unit you can use "Convert unit" from numeric->conversion palette.
You can also "strip" ANY unit like shown in the picture.

Its great, it seems to be simple, but i haven't found this convertunit function. I didn't realize that this function exist in general.

Thanks you all very much. Your tips were very helpful to me!

best wishes!
