Hi cjekanem,
Sorry for my late reply... Virtual Instrumentation deals with "Acquire ---> Analyse ---> Display". Since data has acquired from sensor, work is almost done. For analysis check these two VIs...
1)Go to this location in your system c:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2010\examples\measure\maxmpl.llb\FFT and Power Spectrum Units.vi (Assuming you have installed Labview in default loaction).
This VI gives idea how to use Sampling rate, Vpeak,Vrms Phase, power spectrum, FFT Spectrum (Magnitude, phase), Power Spectral density etc
2) E:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2010\examples\measure\maxmpl.llb\Power Spectrum Measurement.vi (Assuming you have installed Labview in default loaction)
This VI Computes the averaged power spectrum of a simulated input signal. This example allows you to specify various averaging modes for your measurement, such as RMS averaging, vector averaging, or peak hold, as well as the number of averages. You can observe the influence of these averaging parameters, typically on the noise floor, and notice that vector averaging requires the use of a trigger in order to lower the noise floor without lowering the fundamental along with it. You also can specify the type of window to use in this measurement, such as a Hanning or Flat Top window.
I hav attached one more document "
View attachment 53395".
More good VIs can be found in examples section. All you have to do is select your hardware and limit the results to hardware. (As shown in screen shot)
For customizing front panel refer the power point presentation "
View attachment 53394". It gives overall view about color, border, spacing, tab controls, tip stips on control etc.
Hope this helps you...
