Real-time feedback system

[Alice12]

My experimental setup (labview is being used to drive it) is as follows:

1. Give the physical system a random move -> 2. Acquire data using PXI-5124 digitizer -> 3. Perform some calculation on the data acquired -> 4. Accept/ reject the move based on the calculation

and go to step one. 

How do I know how much time the program took to acquire data and perform the calculation (step 2 and 3). so that I can set the proper loop timing. I'm using "Flat Sequence Structure" for each step/ sub-step.

Thanks

If you want precise information about timing, you need to do your own benchmarks. Go to Help->Find Examples. Search for "benchmark" and you should find "Benchmark Project.lvproj". It shows how to use RT Utilities pallete to make benchmarks on real time target.
