RCP CL Smooth Signal Generator Example
This example demonstrates how to use the RCP CL Smooth Signal Generator VI. For a detailed description of this VI and how it operates, please refer to the RCP Smooth Signal Generator help page.
System Requirements
Please refer to the Rapid Control Prototyping (RCP) Toolkit System Requirements to run this example. This example does not require any other hardware.
Configuring the Example
There is no configuration required to run this VI on a Windows PC. Once the RCP CL Smooth Signal Generator Example.lvproj
is open,
click the RCP CL Smooth Signal Generator Example.vi
under My Computer
and you are ready
to execute the example.
Running the Example
Click on the VI
button or select from the menu to start the VI.
The Signal
chart shows a sine wave that transitions between the frequency specified in f0
to f1
after 2 seconds. The blue signal is generated using a standard signal generator while the red signal signal is generated using the
RCP CL Smooth Signal Generator
. As illustrated, the transition between the two frequencies is smoother
(i.e., with no discontinuity and whose derivative is also continuous) when using the RCP VI.
Try changing the f0
and f1
parameters of the sine wave and examine their effect on the scope.
Click on the Front Panel
button to stop the VI.
