TDMS Get Properties - Root Name

[ckc8302]

I am currently using LV and the "TDMS Get Properties" VI to acquire various properties from my files without issue.

However, I need to get the Root Name out of my TDMS file in the form of a string.

How can I do this?

To get the root name of a .tdms file, you should use "TDMS Get Properties" with its "group name" and "channel name" input unwired(as shown in the picture below), then "TDMS Get Properties" returns the .tdms file's root name.

Tianbin,

Thank you so much! I was trying everything to get this to work and could not make it happen. Using "name" rather than "Name" was one of my issues, though there were some other underlying problems to tackle as well.

All is working well now!
