Time display on x-axis for front panel instead of data points

What do I need to change or add in my block diagram so that on the waveform graph the time will be on the x-axis instead of the data points. I am running this VI on a pda for some testing and I would rather get the time on the horizontal axis. Im also using an NI USB-6008, windows xp and Labview 8.2

                                                                                                                                                   

                                                                                                                                              Thanks

And since you are sending it an array of doubles rather than an array of waveforms, there is no timin information associated with it.  It will assume 1 sample per second.  If your acquisition is faster than that, you will need to set the dT of the graph or the scaling multiplier factor of the X scale of that graph.

 

 

(PS, it is always a good programming practice to show the labels for all the terminals on your block diagram and assign the terminal a name.)
