Draws the difference equation of a filter in a picture indicator. Example

coefficients format specifies how to convert the filter coefficients into a string. Refer to the Format Specifiers Syntax Elements topic for more information about valid syntax elements.
type specifies the type of difference equation to draw.

0FLP (default)—Specifies to draw the difference equation of a floating-point filter. If filter in is a fixed-point filter, this VI draws the difference equation of the reference floating-point filter.
1FXP—Specifies to draw the difference equation of a fixed-point filter. If filter in is a floating-point filter, this VI returns an error.
filter in specifies the input filter.
origin specifies the upper-left-hand position of the difference equation this VI draws.
left specifies the horizontal coordinate that increases to the right. The default is 10.
top specifies the vertical coordinate that increases to the bottom. The default is 10.
error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs. The default is no error. If an error occurred before this VI or function runs, the VI or function passes the error in value to error out. This VI or function runs normally only if no error occurred before this VI or function runs. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, it runs normally and sets its own error status in error out. Use the Simple Error Handler or General Error Handler VIs to display the description of the error code. Use error in and error out to check errors and to specify execution order by wiring error out from one node to error in of the next node.
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE.
code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
source specifies the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning. The default is an empty string.
display format specifies the format in which this VI displays the difference equation.

filter out returns the filter in unchanged.
difference equation returns the difference equation of filter in in a picture indicator.
draw area size returns the size of the area in the picture indicator this VI uses to draw the difference equation.
width returns the width of the draw area.
height returns the height of the draw area.
error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI or function ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI or function produces. Right-click the error out front panel indicator and select Explain Error from the shortcut menu for more information about the error.
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred.
code is the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning.

Example

Refer to the Filter Rendering VI in the labview\examples\Digital Filter Design\Getting Started directory for an example of using the DFD Render Difference Equation VI.
