Saving different jpeg file for continuous reading of height image

Hi, I am facing trouble with saving the jpeg file of the data continuously. I have attached my VI. In this I am able to save the jpeg file but when the graph gets complete the new graph starts saving in the save jpeg file by overwriting the previous one. I am getting data at a very high speed. So I want to save all the graphs in different jpeg file in the same folder.

I am new to lab view so if you can help me from basics or either by changing my VI files will be highly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi ish,

 

what's the problem to use a unique filename for each JPG file?

Best regards,

Hi GerdW,

Thanks for such a quick response. Can you let me know how to do that as I can see in the write jpeg file just to give one file name that it saves.

Just create a different filename for each file...

(There is a full palette of file functions!)

It overwrites your old data since they are having the same file name. If you can give a unique filename for each image, that would solve your problem. For example, append the timestamp to the filename.
