comma delimited number to array

[tian66]

 I am trying to split the comma delimited  number from read Buffer.Only the first number can be convtered into array.

But if I replaced the read buffer with a input spreadsheet string (1.1 , 2.943, 44) , it works.

So wondering what is problem with the numbers in the Read Buffer.

Thanks!

The match pattern VI can sucssesfuly detected the Comma. So it is "real" comma.

Can you right-click the "read buffer" terminal (after running the VI so it contains typical data as in your image) and select "create constant". Now copy the created constant to a new VI, save it, and attach it here.

Set the display to \-codes. There might be other garbage in there. Also make the array indicator a little bigger.

Your code seems dangerous. How do you guarantee that the inner while loop ever stops if there is only pathological data?

It cannot guarantee the while stop. This is coming with DMM driver. What is your recommendation?

I also trie using ",\00" to split the string but it failed.

Thanks!

Your delimiter is ",/00". Make sure to switch the diagram constant to 

\-codes before entering it.

Sorry it is typo. I did try  ",/00".

Any other suggestion?

It works with a delimiter of \00. I am not sure why that character affects the scan with a comma as the delimiter.

Sorry, my typo, should read ",\00" of course (was typing on an android keyboard on my phone), but only if the string constant is set to \-codes when you enter it.

 

Observe the display style! Entering \00 into a string set to normal display does not help much.

It is still not working.The display is set to \-.
