Hello,
My question is probably easily answered. I am using hardware timing on a cDAQ to measure analog data, and plotting the results on a waveform chart. Being that it is hardware timed, and set to "Continuous Samples" it is a buffered communication. The waveform chart displays all data in the buffer, but a number indicator seems to display only the last piece of data in the buffer (correct me if I'm wrong). That's all fine, but my question is, if I use the integral function to sum the data over time, will it integrate across all of the data points in the buffer, or will it use only the piece of data at the end of the buffer? I would hope not the later, as this would mean the integral function is dependent on the software loop time, and has much lesser resolution than if it uses all the data.
Thanks!
