Owning Palette: Machine Vibration VIs

Installed With: Sound and Vibration Measurement Suite

Buffers orbit or timebase plot data and returns the buffered data. This VI requires continuous input data. The buffered data might have gaps between or overlap with previous buffers. Do not use the buffered data for limit testing or data logging.

	reset? specifies the initialization of the internal states. The first time this VI runs, or when reset? is TRUE, the internal states initialize to zero. If reset? is FALSE, this VI sets the internal states to the final states from the previous call to the VI. The default is FALSE.
	orbit/timebase plot in specifies the input orbit plot or timebase plot. probe x specifies the amplitude of probe x. probe y specifies the amplitude of probe y. reference specifies the time reference of the probe x and probe y. plot type specifies the type of the input orbit or timebase plot. 0 Filtered Plot—(Default) 1 Unfiltered Plot attribute specifies additional information about the plot. LabVIEW uses this information to display the data properly and to perform extended measurements.
	buffer size (rev) specifies the maximum number of revolutions to buffer for display.
	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 exception control to treat what is normally an error as no error or to treat a warning as an error. 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.
	orbit/timebase plot out returns the buffered orbit plot or timebase plot. probe x returns the buffered amplitude of probe x. probe y returns the buffered amplitude of probe y. reference returns the buffered time reference of the probe x and probe y. plot type returns the type of the buffered orbit or timebase plot. attribute returns additional information about the buffered plot. LabVIEW uses this information to display the data properly and to perform extended measurements.
	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.
