How to increase veristand UDP buffer size?

[Allende]

Hi!

I'm having some data lost from veristand screen and I want to increase the UDP buffer size. It's a new option in veristand 2011 as I can read on this link: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/372846C-01/veristand/whats_new/ (Workspace Enhancements section).

Does anyone now haow to do it?

Thanks in advance,

Miguel.

Do you mean how to do it from the VeriStand Workspace? On your workspace graph click setup to enter the configuration dialog for the graph. In the configuration dialog you will see where you can enter a new value for the UDP buffer size.

Thanks Jarrod.

I have increased the buffer size and I still have miss data. I have 5 graph on the same screen. I'll try to reduce the amount of data requested. But in any case, is there any global parameter for the workspace itself? or should I change only on the graphs?

Thanks in advance.

There is not a global property you can set. You would need to set the UDP buffer size for each graph on the workspace. Other options that can help graph performance are the refresh rate and decimation. A higher decimation and a lower refresh rate can improve the responsiveness of the graph. Especially if you have a large history size, decimating the data would be recommended in many cases.
