Importing and Exporting Channel View Data

You can export data from the Channel View to a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and import the data back into the same project or into a new project. You can use this feature to share Channel View configurations among multiple projects or to edit configuration settings from Microsoft Excel, which can be useful when the Channel View contains a large number of items. Select File»Export»Channel View to Excel or right-click in the Channel View and select Export To»Microsoft Excel to export data from the Channel View to Microsoft Excel.

Note  If you intend to import data from the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet back into LabVIEW SignalExpress, you must not edit the top-level header or any of the column headers in the spreadsheet. LabVIEW SignalExpress uses the headers to populate the Channel View correctly. You can edit any other values in the spreadsheet.

Select File»Import»Channel View from Excel or right-click in the Channel View and select Import From»Microsoft Excel to import Channel View data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. When you import data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, an Importing Excel Data window appears and displays a preview of the Channel View. Any values that LabVIEW SignalExpress cannot import successfully appear with error icons in the Importing Excel Data window. Move the cursor over an error icon to display more information about the error.
