Graphing XY Data

Complete the following steps to display an array of points on a single-plot XY graph.

1. Add an XY graph to the front panel.
   
    Add  Find
2. Build a block diagram with the following objects:
   • Divide function
     
      Add  Find
   • Multiply function
     
      Add  Find
   • Sine function
     
      Add  Find
   • Bundle function
     
      Add  Find
   • For Loop around all objects on the block diagram except the XY graph terminal
     
      Add  Find
3. Wire the x/y output of the Divide function to the x input of the Sine function.
4. Wire the sin(x) output of the Sine function to the first (top) input terminal of the Bundle function.
5. Wire the x*y output of the Multiply function to the second (bottom) input terminal of the Bundle function.
6. Wire the iteration terminal of the For Loop to the x input of the Divide function and to the x input of the Multiply function.
7. Right-click the y input terminal of the Divide function and select Create»Constant from the shortcut menu. A numeric constant appears.
8. Enter 10 in the constant and press the <Enter> key.
9. Wire the constant to the y input terminal of the Multiply function.
10. Wire the output terminal of the Bundle function to the XY graph terminal. An auto-indexing tunnel appears where the wire intersects the loop border.
11. Right-click the count terminal of the For Loop and select Create Constant from the shortcut menu. A numeric constant appears.
12. Enter 100 in the constant and press the <Enter> key.
13. Run the VI.

Refer to the XY Graph Data Types VI in the labview\examples\Controls and Indicators\Graphs and Charts\XY Graph for an example of graphing XY data.
