How to get a measurement file using DAQCard-AI-16E-4?

[El_ifi]

Hi!
I'm new using Labview. I have a DAQcard-AI-16E-4 and Labview 7. I'm using some K thermocouples and I need to do some temperature measurements. So far I have been able to get a chart; but I just cannot create a file with my measurements. What can I do? Thank you 8 )

The "Report" Express VI creates an html file containing a table of your data. If you would prefer simple text, you could use the "Export Waveforms to Spreadsheet" VI. Either one of those will get you up and running quickly. If you want something more specific, then there are ways to modify the formatting to meet your needs.

Great suggestion JasonV.

There are also other ways of logging the data into a file. One of them is called Write to LabVIEW Measurement File.vi, located in the File IO pallette in All Functions. Another way is to log it using the Write to SpreadSheet File.vi. You can find examples of that in the Example Finder in LabVIEW 7.0. It is a very common application, and we have lots of examples both online and built-in.

Hope this helps,

Nathan
