Is it possible that you are trying to wire a value that is generated in
a For loop to something? Any time you wire a value out of a For loop,
the value is automatically indexed into an array so you'll have all of
the values generated in the loop. This could be where your 1D array is
appearing.
If this is the case, look at the tunnel where the wire is running out of the loop. Instead of it being a solid box, it will be white with small brackets in it. This indicates that an array is being built as the loop runs. You can turn this feature off on a tunnel by tunnel instance by right clicking on the tunnel and selecting "Disable Auto Indexing". Note that with this turned off, you'll only get the last value generated in the loop.

Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.
Just delete the offending wire, then right-click on the output tunnel of the loop and select "create indicator". It will be the correct type. 🙂
Anything that produces data is a source. Think of it like watering your
yard. The sprinkler is the source of teh water, the grass is the sink.
If you want all the data from the loop, then you DO want auto indexing enabled. This is what automatically builds the array on the edge of the loop. If you da as Altenbach suggested, you'll have the correct indicator for the array.
The problem you may be having is that now that you have an array, you have to use the array functions to get at the individual values in the array. To get to a single element, wire the array into the "Index Array" function. The 'Index' input specifies which element wil be passed through the function. a '0' will give you the first element, a 1 will give you the second element and so on.
Does that take care of the problem?
