read binary file 10 bytes at a time

[crossrulz · Accepted solution]

I took the liberty of fixing your VI.  Here are some notes.

1. You don't have to set the file position before performing a read.  When you read data, the position increments on its own.
2. There's no need to close the file just to open it up again.
3. With the previous points in mind, after reading the record size, set the file position to the first record.  Then inside of the FOR loop, just read that data.

NOTE:  It's not exactly complete.  It is reading all of the data 1 channel at a time.  Currently, the indicators will be overwritten with each new channel.  I'll leave how you want to handle that up to you.

the y-scale doesn't look correct. They are supposed to be amplitudes in the range of 0-5v.

If I get the dll for this, would it help? would it be easier to fetch the data in labview?

Your problem is likely an Endianess issue.  There should be an input on the Read From Binary File to edit this.  Play with the different settings until you get something that makes sense.
