Making interactive front panel.

Hi guys,

 

I am trying to make an interactive front panel on LabView. Here, I have displayed values of multiple variables and also plotted graphs with respect to time. But on top of this I am thinking about making an interactive panel where suppose I have displayed a variable 'u', now 'u' is function of multiple independent variables (for example: u = f(x, y)).

 

Now what I wish to do is, suppose I have displayed 'u' vs time graph on my front panel and if I see some disturbance in 'u', so I should be able to click on some button and see the graphs of 'x' vs time and 'y' vs time so that I know which independent variable among x and y is cause of disturbance.

 

If anyone has any idea of how to make such panels then please share with me. Thank you in advance.

There are a number of ways you could do it potentially showing X, y and u on different graphs and populating them all all the time. Although this may be a lot of data depending on your use case. Alternatively another option could be to have one graph and on the identification of a 'feature' 'clicking a button' you could send X and y to the same graph. The easiest way to do this would be to use a local variable. To send data to the same front panel object from two different places. You can also assign X and y to different axis if there is a significant difference in there amplitude.
