Lenses

A lens is a custom view of the content in the repository. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see content through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

What is in a lens?

Lens makers point to materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

Who can create a lens?

Any individual member, a community, or a respected organization.

What are tags? tag icon

Tags are descriptors added by lens makers to help label content, attaching a vocabulary that is meaningful in the context of the lens.

Intensity Graph Example VI

Module by: National Instruments. E-mail the author

Summary: Use an intensity graph.

Exercise 1

In this exercise, you use a VI that displays a wave interference pattern on an intensity graph. You also use the VI to plot a 2D array of data on the graph.

1.a) Front Panel

  1. Open and run the Intensity Graph Example VI located in the C:\Exercises\LabVIEW Basics I directory. By default, the VI plots an interference waveform. A Property Node on the block diagram defines the color range used in the intensity graph. You can change the color range by opening the block diagram and modifying the Color Array constant.
    Figure 1

  2. Change the Plot switch on the front panel to User Data and enter values between 0.0 0.0 and 10.0 10.0 in the User Data array control. Run the VI. Notice how the magnitude of each element is mapped to the intensity graph.

  3. Close the VI. Do not save changes.
