Chapter 2 - 3

This document discusses LabVIEW programming and includes chapters on loops, waveform graphs, data files, character strings, and important programming structures. It provides examples of saving data to a .csv file from a DAQ assistant and reading data from a .csv file. It also demonstrates using a string control on the front panel to allow the user to type a file name and build the file path to record data. The homework assignment is to program a GUI interface to save data to a file and read data from a file.

Check Homework – Student practice
Homework: x = a*cos(2*pi*f*t - phi) + b
• Waveform chart in while/for loop
• XY graph: x-axis: time t; y-axis: x value

x = a*sin(2*pi*f*t + phi) + b

Check Homework – Student practice
Homework: x = a*cos(2*pi*f*t - phi) + b
• Waveform chart in while/for loop
• XY graph: x-axis: time t; y-axis: x value
Problems:
t = i: -> 2*pi*f*1 ~2*pi*f*N -> cyclic -> x values
are different only because numeric calculation
error

Solution:
t = 0:Tmax with resolution of 1/fs -> t = 0:1/fs:T
If using “i” -> divided by fs: ti = i/fs
