Hi,

Areyou getting no data stored?  It appeas to me that your write to file is configured so as to reinitialize the file before writing, so that you would end up always with just your last piece of data in the file.

so how to make it work? did i need to choose another write to file or just need to make a setting there?
by using analog input, it can measure data every times it change, but with counter input is not as analog, why is that so?

Are you asking the same thing that you did here?

well, I have never used that method to write data to a file, but if you double click on your write the write LabVIEW measurement file object and look at the configuration you have selected save to a series of files.  Is that what you wanted, or did you just want one file?
