I am very new to using Labview. I am using a Keithley2420 SourceMeter to communicate with Labview. I have the unit sucessfully communicating with Labview but now it's just an issue of formatting the data for Excel. I would like to have the data in decimal format so I tried to convert the string into a decimal string but my options only let me turn it into a number and not a string of numbers, maybe I selected it incorrectly. I also tried to take the data string from the read buffer from the Read VISA icon and put this into an array to spreadsheet and it says that I have unconnected wires, but I know I don't have an array to connect, I would have to create one, but I don't know if I am going about that the right way. It's a simple VI because I just need it to read from the buffer, and I just need the data in Excel. If anyone can help it would greatly appreciated. I have attached the base VI that I am using to manipulate. This VI will read the buffer and return values, just not in the format I would like. Thanks.
