Injects the number of zero amplitude data elements you specify to the start of the input frame of data.
![]() | Note Use the Sample Delay VI if you do not need to change the amount of delay while the VI executes. |

The Variable Delay VI provides continuous operation because the subsequent frame of data does not lose any of the delayed samples from the previous frame. The value of sample delay is applied to the first frame of data. You can adjust sample delay up to the value of max delay while the algorithm executes for subsequent frames.
