Point-by-Point Data Processing Diagram
When the data is put into variables, it is appended one data point at a time, and any Additional Variable
Calculations specified in the Map Variables window are recalculated after each new piece of data.
• You specify a variable for point-by-point data acquisition using the Save Variables panel of the Map
Variables window.
• Point-by-point values are available in the Array-Variable Chart and Variable Value Scope test-run
displays.

Block Data Processing
The Block Information settings allow you to process data in user-defined blocks. The blocks are defined
by selecting a Count variable (dimension=count) from the Counter List property of the DAQ activity.
Note:
The Cycle + DAQ and the Custom Waveform + DAQ activities are hardcoded to process block
data using the Segment Count variable.
Acquired data is processed as a new block whenever the specified Counter variable changes value.
Processing options include saving the data organized by blocks for post-test analysis, saving the blocked
data into variables, or both. Calculations are performed on a block-by-block basis.
