Hey guys.
I have made a program that collect analog data from two vibration sensors and then i use the signalexpress power spectrum to get it in the frequency domain.
I would like to show the signals and the FFT in data dashboard and in UI builder and have some problems doing so.
I'm using Network shared variables and web services.
First question:
It seems that I'm loosing some data when I go through the Network shared double variable. I know that this is becouse i'm using a double variable and I would like to send a waveform but that is not possible becouse the charts in UI builder and data dashboard do not support waveform or?
Second question:
This is almost the same problem as the first question.
Its not possible to show the data directly from the signalexpress power spectrum becouse the XY graph in data dashboard only supports array of cluster of two numerics right ?
Is it possible to convert the data from the signalexpress power spectrum to array of cluster of two numerics ?
Or any other ideas would be appreciated

Hi Genex.
It is important to say, that the Network Shared Variables are not lossless. That might explain the behavior you are seeing. I would not expect the update rate of the UI Builder to be that high, which could lead to data loss.
For more information about choose the right network protocol, wether it is only for monitoring or streaming all available data, see the following article:
Using the Right Networking Protocol
Also, I have posted a reply to your other post about your second question.
