Measuring strain, need to average strain signals.

[MaxMotion]

How do I apply a mean to a multiple channel measurement? Attached is my basic application. Just can get mean to work in it. I tried some book examples, but the program runs irradically when I try them.

NOTE: I tried building the strip chart example from the DAQ manual, but I can't get it to work. Are the book examples stored somewhere?

Thanks!

Try using the "index array" instead of the decimate array.

The index array will seperate the channels for you.

Hello;

You need to use the Index Array.vi to separate the channels so you can apply the mean.vi on every channel separately. Otherwise, the result of the mean operation won't make sense.
