Activity 14-2. Use Auto-Indexing

on Input Arrays

Your objective is to open and operate a VI that uses auto-indexing in a
For Loop to process an array.

Open the Separate Array Values VI by selecting File»Open…. The VI
is located in

Examples\G Examples\General\arrays.llb

.

2.

Open the block diagram. The following illustration shows the block
diagram with both TRUE and FALSE cases visible.

Notice that the wire from

Input Array

changes from a thick wire

outside the For Loop, indicating it is an array, to a thin wire inside the
loop, indicating it is a single element. The i

th

element of the array is

indexed automatically from the array during each iteration.
