My Scaling VI running slow

Would you recommend changing the method of indicators?

I have no idea what you mean by that cryptic sentence.

Fair, sorry about the short wording.

I was responding to your question in Message 16 of 31 in this thread,

"I was not asking about timing, just about these indicators."

[altenbach]

Yes, I got that, but I still have no idea what "changing the method of indicators" means? Makes no sense!

[GOB34]

It seemed that you were recommending a different approach to showing these data being that they are waveforms but I am only indicating values.

[altenbach]

All your data ever display are a single scalar value (or maybe a chart?). If you would scale on these few scalar values would be significantly more efficient that processing all these waveforms, then throwing out all results except one for each waveform.

[GOB34]

Thanks for the clarification, I hear you.

I do use all of the waveform info in other parts of my project, so that info is not "thrown out".

I see what you mean, though, on doing the scaling on only the scalar data.

I have implemented the approach of doing the scaling on the incoming data as described above and it is working very well. I do record the scaling factors for each channel in the TDMS file so those scaled data can always be reverted to raw voltages if needed.

I appreciate your support and advice.
