[Krishna_kp]

hello everyone,

i am reading and saving 6 sensor output from an instrument using labview. rs485 communication is using here. normally its saving 2 samples per second in to excel file. i need to reduce this no of data saving. eg: instead of one reading per second i want to save one reading per minute or 10 minutes etc..so for getting that what logic i need to use or any special function is available in labview?

please help

I would use the Elasped Time function and a case structure.
