hello everyone

I am new to this software, so here I have two question

1. I have a array panel which contains some strings , I have set up some parameters to test , but I found I have to set those strings everytime after I restart this software, is there any ways to save those settings?

2. I'm trying to read out some data from a machines , so I add a Write to Measurement File, and it comes out to a *.lvm, I open it by txt, in the txt it looks like:

X_Value Untitled               Comment
0.000000                        147.970000

can I set the number at left into some letters? To show it more clear to the user

There are many ways to set and recall panel settings, but the one that will probably fit your needs is to simply Right Click on the array > Data Operations > Make Current Value Default.

 

I'll let someone else answer #2. I don't use that measurement file thing - I always roll my own file writter.

Hi,

@1st question :its simple,Right click on the control->Data Operations->Make Current Value Default

I'm nt sure about the 2nd question .

You want to reduce the no of decimals(instead of 0.0000000 to 0.00) or To align the string .

is that possible to change the 0.00000 into U1_rms?

it is easier for the user to understand what is the meaning of value

Actually you are writing float value directly into the file.So before writing ,just convert your float value into equivalent U1 rms & write it.Conversion part you need to make use of some numeric functions.Hope it will help .
