Hello,
I am running a scaled down earthquake data that I retrieved from the USGS website and placed accelerometers on the mini shake table to verify that the shake table can replicate an earthquake. However, I have a problem setting the "samples to read" and "rate (Hz)" to the correct setting to give me a good amount of points. I extracted the data into excel file and plotted the graph but because I have so many collected data points, I cannot the plot. Is there any way where I set the settings of the DAQ assistance to only give me a few points? Ultimately, I want to get my excel graph to have the same shape or very similar shape as the earthquake data that I retrieved. I attached my block diagram, DAQ assistance setting, and the graph of the earthquake data I am trying to replicate. Thank you in advance for your help!
