Converting sensor reading signal into an array

[MajdQaisi]

Hello Guys, 

I have received a LabVIEW program from a company for a torque measuring sensor and it shows the reading in as a single output display  (Channel A) ,which changes every 200ms ( it looks like a stop watch)depending on the torque vales that is applied to the sensor. 
now how can I convert these readings into an array  in order to make an evaluation? or is there a way to make the program record the readings after every 50 milliseconds (for example)?

my problem is little bit complicated for me so thank you in advance for helping

Wire the value to the loop border to create an array from those readings. (That's called autoindexing…)

Maybe, but that depends on your DAQ device: it may be possible to change the settings of that TimedSequence to iterate faster.

Why is there a TimedSequence at all? (Especially for VISARead commands!?)

What kind of DAQ device do you use? Did you read its manual to learn about possible sample rates?

Hey GerdW,
> I will try to do an auto indexing for this timed Sequence, so far no luck how to do it unfortunately, if you have an idea how to do it i will be glad.
> I didnt create this program, it was already made by the sensor company. it is basicaly a simple sensor and its very sensitve to any value of torque ( even if you touch it, it will start to measure) and the iteration time can be modified  and i needed to be modified for my project, I am evaluting torque vales for a small gearbox with integrated clutch
