How to remove data spike at the beginning of a LabVIEW run

[SamDougherty]

Hello,

I am collecting data from a bunch of different differential voltage sources and display them on various charts in LabVIEW. Whenever I start the program, I am getting a data spike at roughly 0 volts that throws off the graphs. These graphs will vary quite a bit so I cannot just add a data cut off below a certain point. I was wondering if there was another way to remove this data spike at the beginning of the run. Thanks!

I would guess the answer is "don't include the zero when starting your VI"!

Unfortunately you forgot to attach any code so we cannot give advice on how to improve your code…
