Writing Data to a File Using LabVIEW

[Philosophe]

Overview
This example shows two possible methods for writing data to a file to save/log/view later. These two methods include the "Write to Measurement File" Express VI and the "Write to Spreadsheet File.vi" function block.

 
Description
This VI creates a user defined amount of random data in the form of random numbers. It then takes the data gathered and writes this data to a file. The format of the file can be specified in the Express VI. The format of the function block can be opened in different programs (such as notepad, Excel, word, etc.)

 
Requirements

• LabVIEW 2013 (or compatible)

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

1. Set File location and name of file on the VI's front panel by clicking on the folder icon.
2. Run VI
3. Open desired file
