XY Graph problems

[Powakid42]

Hi, i have a NI 6008 data aquisition board and i have to do a XY graph using two voltage signals. I can see the signals in labview but i cant create the graph like i want, it has Amplitude/time, i want signal1/signal2, how do i do it? Another question, i have voltage signals that i want to convert to distance and force values to create the graphic, i can make a calibration curve and get a equation , where do i put it? This is a project in school and i have to get it done till next week so i apreciate all the help you can give me.

Thank you

The Express XY Graph has an x input and a y input. Wire your signals there. Make sure you wire a True Constant to the Reset input if you don't want the graph to clear before you write each time. You can use the Split Signals function to get the separate channels.

I'm assuming that you are using the DAQ Assistant. When you configure this, there is a Custom Scaling option. Select Create New and enter your equation. There is the Scaling and Mapping express VI.

If you get stuck, post the code you've written so someone can look at it.

Yes, i did that. i configured the two chanels and splitted the data wire to two chanels, it is working. I wired the signals to X input and Y input but the grah comes in Amplitude/time, i want to know how to change that. i want to make a graphic with a line, each value coming of the sensors will go to the graph and create a line with the values that are being aquired.

Thank yo

The labels for each axis are just that - labels that you can change to anything you want. Just double click in the label and type the new one. Or, right click on the graph and select properties. Go to the Scales tab, select the axis and change the name.
