DIAdem report with more than 3 signals

[Manuel123]

Hi everybody!

How can I create a report with more than 3 signals  as input. The DIAdem report accepts only 3 signals as Input.
In my opinion this is an very easy question but I could not solve it during a few hours!

Thanks in advance,

Hi Manuel,

sorry for late answer.

Make a right click on the DIAdem Report Express VI and choose "Open Front Panel" in opening dialog say "Convert". Press Strg+I for Opening VI Properties and choose "Execution", deselect "Reentrant" and say ok. In  the frontpanel you can see up to 10 signals. In the top right make a right clcik on the VI symbol and choose "Show Connector". Here you can connect more signals to the pane (as you made a SubVI). After it you should got with Strg+I again into the VI Properites and enable "Reentrant". After it save the VI with an other name. Now you have a new SubVI, but be careful it´s no more an Express VI.

Thank you for your answer!

But I have still some problems.
According to your help I have connected eight of the signal-boxes to the connector. After that it is possible to connect up to eight signals to this sub-vi. Great!
But now I want show all these signals in the Diadem report, for this reason I created a new report-layout (see attachment) and wired the path of it to the "report layout file" - input. Unfortunately Diadem uses still a layout with just two signals and even if I open my own layout in Diadem there are only two data-lines listed in the "Data Portal: Internal Data" - panel.

Where is my failure?
