visualization of data of the last 24 hours

[PU644]

Hi everybody,

I would like to display the last 24 hours data of a solar-power application. I use LabVIEW to store data over TCP/IP once a minute, and write the values together with a time stamp in a text file. Now I would like to design a graph or something like this to visualize the values of the past 24 hours. Is there an easy way to do this? Maybe I just don`t see it...!

Every suggestion is welcome, so please write every idea you have!

Thanks,
Dennis

If you want to display data while it is being acquired a Waveform Chart can be used directly. Pop up on the chart to set the history length to match the number of points you get in 24 hours. If you want to display data from the file, read it in, reformat, if necessary, and write it to a chart or graph.

If you want something more elaborate, please specify what you need.
