Issue Details

I have an application were I gather information from multiple instruments, I would like to compare this data and visualize it on an XY Graph. How do I configure my LabVIEW NXG graph to accept my X and Y values instead of graphing time based?

Solution

Using a LabVIEW NXG graph you can plot numeric, complex or point sample data, the important thing here would be to see how are you mapping the XY elements to the graph indicator. As a first point you can use this help document to understand different data types and the plot behavior that you will get.

For example, if you create a cluster of arrays you will get this behavior
