Extract Single Tone Information VI vs Tone Measurements VI

[Dominik.Bejma]

Hello everyone! 

I'm wondering: is there any difference between "Extract Single Tone Information VI" and "Tone Measurements VI"? 

Best regards

Tone Measurements is kind of an "Express" (Wizard) VI.  If you right-click it and Open Front Panel a couple of times you can drill down to the base VI which is...  You guessed it!  Extract Single Tone Information.

If you want to challenge yourself, keep drilling down to the LabVIEW primitives that are inside Extract Single Tone Information VI.  Most primitives like this are just a call to a dll, but this one gets the tone info through plain math and trigonometry.
