Overview
This VI shows how to write intermittent TDMS files

Description
This is an example program that will write a time stamp and iteration count to a tdms file at regular intervals. In order to commit the data to disc at regular intervals to ensure data integrity the TDMS Flush function will execute every N iterations. This is useful for benchmarking how much data is logged to a file during a system failure

Requirements:
LabVIEW Base Development System 2012 (or compatible)

Steps to Implement or Execute Code:
1. Set the name of the file
2. Choose the interval of iterations to flush the buffer
3. Run the code.
