Labview Signal Express

[GYepes]

Hi,

I am just starting to learn how to properly use labView: signalexpress and am looking for some guidance on a project. 

I have been trying to produce a looping signal consisting of a "sawtooth" ramp that lasts for 2 seconds, going from 0V to 1V, and is followed by a 1 second pause in stimulation (in between two sawtooth ramps). I would greatly appreciate the guidance of anybody that can give me a brief step by step in producing this specific pattern. 

Thanks!

GYepes,

The signal you are trying to generate is not a conventional signal, so you will not be able to create the signal directly in SignalExpress.  I would suggest creating a table of points in an ASCII file and then importing that set of points in a SignalExpress step.  Take a look at pages 3-1 through 3-8 in this document for instructions on how to do this: https://www.ni.com/docs/en-US/bundle/373873h/resource/373873h.pdf

Hi Mike,

Thank you for your guidance. After a bit of modification and testing I got it to work!

Thanks!
