LabVIEW
Cluster rounding off value
I have a cluster that is used to set RS232 port parameters, then I use unbundle by name to extract 6 of the 8 values, one of which has a decimal point. I bundle them by name into a new cluster, which is displayed to the user.
The new cluster has removed the decimal point, changing 1.5 to 2. Probing the wire into the cluster shows the 1.5 is there, but the cluster is removing it.
I can break out each value into a indicator, but I think this should work.
This shouldn't be this hard, can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?
Your cluster template wired to the bundle node has noting to do with the datatype of the display.
Not only do you have floating point values for items that should only exist as integers, all representation seem to be reversed. Who made that typedef??
Here is the cluster constant corresponding to your display shown next to your template (arranged vertically in cluster order). Note that all datatypes are flipped! Do you know the difference between blue and orange?
In addition, you also need to look at the display format of your indicators. Only parity and flow control show 6 digits, the rest 0 digits.
Altenbach,
You are correct, I am embarrassed to admit that I do not have very good grip on the difference of the LabVIEW numerical values. I can't seem to find information that helps me out very much - do you know of a resource that would help me?
The cluster was borrowed from another VI, as I don't have very much experience with Clusters.
Thanks for your advice.
