LabView shutdown problems?

Also, in several places it looks like you were trying to show some pictures, but we can't see them because the links point to your hard drive.  The html source code in one reply looked like this  <img src="file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/OWNER%7E1.NIC/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-2.jpg" alt=""><img src="file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/OWNER%7E1.NIC/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-3.jpg" alt=""><img src="file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/OWNER%7E1.NIC/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-4.jpg" alt=""><img src="file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/OWNER%7E1.NIC/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-5.jpg" alt="">.

If you want to put in pictures, first you have to attach them to your message so they get uploaded to NI's server.  .png's are preferred over .jpeg's.  Never upload .bmp's as they are too large.  Then if you want to have the picture in your message, edit your message, capture the link to the now uploaded file (right click/properties on the attachment will give the path).  THEN click on the yellow picture icon to embed, paste in the copied link into the dialog box.

My graph is getting the data but i want a line connecting the data as time passes. How?

[Matthew_Kelton]

You need to use a shift register and add your new data to your old data using build array.  Wire the output of your build array to the XY Graph.

for some reason the time is not moving. i want the points to be displayed horizontally rather that vertically.
Why is the time of the graph not changing? The clock is but the graph is not. Why?

[Matthew_Kelton]

You're passing an array of data points with no timestamp into Get XY Value.vi, so the time coming out will always be the same.  You will have to add the current time to the array of data yourself.  In actuality, you can dump Get XY Value.vi and Waveform to XY Pairs.vi and use the current time with the DBLs you already have.

It may be better for you to tell us what you are trying to accomplish since I also don't understand why you are sorting the data.

i want the x axis to move in corresponding to time.
For example, at 1 sec its 75F and at 2 sec its 76F.
I want a line going through to the next point "/\/\/" like that.

Check the properties of the XY graph.  It sounds like the plot style is set to show no line.  The properties dialog should look like this.

Now the weird thing was that I was not able to change the line interpolation style by way of this dialog box.  (In LV 8.2.1)  Does anyone know why?  But I was able to change the style by writing to a property node of it as shown below.

I hope this helps you get the graph looking like you want.  If not, please post your VI (with data saved by going to Edit/Make current values default) so people can see what you are talking about and browse through the XY graph propertis.

the xy graph shows a line from (0,75.4) to 0,76.5) i want the 0 to change for the secand and so on. the x should be time, which should change but its not.
How? Why?

[Matthew_Kelton]

As I stated, you are not passing time as the value of your x variable.  When you convert your array of DBLs to XY points using the waveform VIs, there is no time data in the array, so it uses 0 for all x values.  You need to add the time for the x variable in your loop.

what vi do i use? where do i hook it to?
