Using VeriStand API in LabVIEW for graphs

[h_yong]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has experience reproducing the graphs that come with the VeriStand workspace in LabVIEW via the API. For example, should I use the Get Channel Value block to feed into a LabVIEW graph or is there another suggested method? Thanks.

You can start with this example:

<LabVIEW>\examples\Execution API\UDP Streaming\UDP Streaming Example.vi

It shows you how to request high-speed streaming data from the VeriStand Gateway and process it. It doesn't show other specific features of the VeriStand Workspace Graph, like the Hold button, but it's a start.

You can get results with Get Channel Value(s) VIs, but that VI returns the latest value from the data table each time it's called.  If you're looking for buffered data, consider the Waveform Streaming API.
