getting the highest peak

[Enriquez]

Hi everyone!

I'd like to know how to choose the highest peak like from the graph. Can anyone show me how can this be done?

Thanks!

What is the datatype (array, waveform, dynamic, etc)?

If it is an array, you can use Array Max&Min.

You might check out Peak Detector VI.  This library function lets you specify a threshold so that only peaks over the threshold are returned.  You can also specify a minimum width for peaks as a simple noise filter.

It is really difficult from the image to even tell how the peaks looks like. You have many, many plots on this graph (many colors!) and there is huge overlap, especially in the middle. Can you zoom it to show how the pile of peaks in the center actually looks like? (... or even attach the VI containing typical data).

The input is a 2D array. But I want to extract the highest plot and plot in another graph.

i can't attach the VI because it has some hardware dll in it and this is the zoomed in version of the graph before. (The x and y axis are different because I adjusted the hardware a little)

As Altenbach said: Array Max & Min.

For 2d arrays, it returns row and column. Use the row:
