Re: FPGA FFT

hello

I hope you are doing well. I am working on a project that we have problems with The voltage and I want to make a LabVIEW diagram and see how the signal is working. 

I connected a voltage transmitter to the NI9207 current input card and created the program as I want to use the FFT to determine at what frequency I will have the highest voltage. The voltage transmitter indicates the output of a power supply. I want to see how this output works.

 

The waveform isn’t showing the real case which should illustrate the highest point.

You should ask this question in a separate post on these forums and provide more context. This doesn't seem FPGA related.

Hi Belinda,

Several issues:

  • You don't provide information on your hardware.
  • You don't provide (real) LabVIEW code, just images of code. We cannot run/edit/debug images with LabVIEW.
  • You use the DAQAssistent and those ugly DDT wires a lot. Many of us don't like them and usually we recommend to use plain DAQmx functions!
  • There are coercion dots visible in your image: do you know what they indicate?
  • The FFT graph looks quite ok, but your waveform chart only shows truncated data with wrong scales: this is related to the coercion dots and your mis-configured chart. As we cannot inspect your code you need to do that on your own…
  • There are several indicators with the same label (like "Tension"). This is bad programming style…

Why do you think your current VI will automatically "illustrate the highest point"?

I don't see any code related to finding maximum/maxima in your FFT result…

Best regards,
