peak detector and reading in data

[Paige5]

Hello!

I am new to using the peak detector and was wondering if anyone could answer my simple question! I have already taken data with a DAQ and want to use the peak detector to count and display the number of pulses and to also give the relative timing of pulses. I have attached the file I have so far. 

I would want to read my data file into the "X" port and also to the t0 of the waveform components thing to get my time locations. Please let me know if you guys have any suggestions on how to do this or if it is even possible!!! 

Thank you soo so so so much:D

I'm not sure if your question is related to the Peak function itself, but more of a question about how to program LabVIEW... You have the Peak VI wired up pretty well, though I'm not sure whyyou would have an array of values auto indexed in to the Width input.

If you've already taken data with the DAQ, you should be able to just wire that data in to the Peak VI and have your outputs. Choose a relevant threshold and width and press Run.
