rectify a signal

[mbhatti2000]

Dear All,

I want to rectify a signal in LabVIEW SE version 2.5. How can I rectify an AC signal, there seems to no option in the Add step pallete. Could any one give any suggestion without having to generate code for labVIEW and doing it programatically?

Select the formula step from the Processing>>Analog Signals Palette and change the formula to "abs(x0)".

Dear proud NI,
Thanks for the answer but I think it does full wave rectification and moves the part of the signal below zero up and inverts it. How can it be fully cut from the original signal?
Thank you in advance.

How about "(x0+abs(x0))/2"
