Hi dudhar,

how do you define numeric values? Are this "hello 12 nice 11 day" two or four numeric values? Can you give us an example of your data and the expected number of counts?

Hi Robin,

Do you want to count the data already stored in a data file or count them as you write the values to the file?  In the former case, you can use the "Spreadsheet string to Array" function followed by "Array Size" function.  In the latter case, you can just use a numeric indicator and increment everytime you write the data to the file.

hi dudhar,

if you have only values like the sting you show, you can use the "spreadsheet string to array" function with delimiter tab or what ever is between your numbers. After that count the number of enties in the array.

hi vikas,
    i have implemented pulse generator in my labview program for conducting single short n single short burst test .actully my program is having three hardware part
1) Tdc-time to digital converter
2) motherboard -which consist of FPGA chip and S-RAM for data storing
3) usb raw 2.0 -from where i am reading the data on my labview software

i am transfering the data from TDC to MB(motherboard) by enableing the burst mode (from labview side)and from MB to USB end point by enabling auto mode(also from labview side) .my programe is working normal in timer mode ,in which control of data is not in my hand ,but when i am running it in single short mode for specific data ,usb is not reading any data.

Hi Robin,

Since it is a different topic, I suggest you create a different thread so that others may be able to help too.

Anyway.. I have not worked with USB protocols, but I assume short mode refers to some sort of test mode.  Have you checked if the motherboard supports or needs to be re-configured for this mode?
