stack plots option while using the acquire express VI

Solved!

Hi,

 

I have my NI USB-6009 daq acquiring an analog current signal from input ai0 and acquiring an analog voltage input using ai2.  These signals are being acquired simultaneously in one task using the daq assistant express vi.  The data out is wired to a waveform chart that is seen by the user on the front panel.  When I start the program, the program runs fine, however the current waveform and the voltage waveform are overlayed on one chart. 

 

I want to show the analog voltage signal and the analog current signal separately on two separate plots.  However, when I right click on the waveform chart on the front panel and choose the menu option, "stack plots," nothing happens.  The plot does not split.

 

Please help,

Thanks,

Marie

It won't split until you run the VI. Did you do that?

Hi Marie,

 

Have you tried expanding the plot legend in the top, right-hand corner of the waveform chart? The following KnowledgeBase article contains some steps for viewing multiple plots as individual displays.

Expanding the legend in the upper right hand corner did it.  Thank You!
