Selecting certain signals in to a graph out of a possible 128 signals

[MrNice]

I am aquiring 128 AI Channels from two 6071E and displaying all the channels on one graph. What I would like to do is have a series of buttons where I could select to show banks of certain signals which are related (i.e Device 0 Channel 0 - 5) and be able to switch between them during the acquisistion, displaying all the points acquired to that point in time and as data is acquired. I probably have to use porperty nodes but have no idea on how to use them.

MrNice,

Try out this example and see if it gets you on your way. It is very similar to the program you have, just with a lot less plots. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thats brilliant, thank you I am still new to this language and still finding it difficult to find my way around!!! What would I do if I wanted one button to display a number of channels?

Thank you again for your help
