ParameterDescription
Imported SignalDisplays the signal imported from the .lvm file.
File and Signal SelectionContains the following options:
  • Import file path—Specifies the name and location of the file you want to import. You can specify an absolute or relative path to the file. If you specify an absolute path, this step saves the path with the project. If you specify a relative path and you do not save the project, this step assumes the path is relative to the My Documents folder. If you specify a relative path and you save the project, the path is relative to the location where you save the project.
  • Signals—Lists the signals in the file and specifies which signal the Imported Signal graph displays.
  • Import—Specifies whether to import the selected signal from the file you specify in Import file path. If you place a checkmark in one of the Import checkboxes, LabVIEW SignalExpress exports that signal to the Project View. You can then send that signal to another step or plot it on the Data View.
  • File Information—Contains the following options:
    • ID—Contains the following options:
      • Project—Displays the name of the project associated with this data set.
      • User—Displays the identity of the user who saved this data.
      • Save date—Indicates the date when the data was saved.
      • Save time—Indicates the time when the data was saved.

    • Waveform—Displays information about the waveform.
      • Waveform name—Specifies the name of the channel you select.
      • Waveform notes—Specifies miscellaneous information associated with the channel you select.
  • Domain—Specifies the data type of the output signal.
  • Y axis unit—Specifies the unit type for the input signal. Selecting Unitless specifies to not associate any unit with the input signal. Selecting Custom specifies that the input signal contains an associated unit within the data.
  • X axis unit—Specifies the unit type for the input signal. Selecting Unitless specifies to not associate any unit with the input signal. Selecting Custom specifies that the input signal contains an associated unit within the data.
