Displaying the 10 Latest RS232C Data Strings in LabVIEW

Updated Aug 14, 2025

Software

  • LabVIEW

Issue Details

I receive string data every second via RS232C, which is displayed as text with the newest data at the top. 
The data consists of lines separated by a line break. How to only show the 10 latest data with LabVIEW?

Solution

You can first convert the String to Array for easier identification by using Spreadsheet String To Array.
Then you can delete the older data using the Delete from Array before converting it back to string using Array to Spreadsheet String.
