61. Industrial Control Engineering SDDS RADE Applications EN-ICE-MTA61 Offline data from the front ends The palette consists of two parts, which are used independently. SDDS Express SDDS Advanced Express: Reads the SDDS file and displays it graphically. Advanced: Intended for applications that doesn’t display graphs. Less overhead.

62. Industrial Control Engineering SDDS RADE Applications EN-ICE-MTA62 Offline data from the front ends SDDS Express SDDS_Open_Files: Reads the file path and outputs the header info and signal names. SDDS_Select:Used to select the signals. Default behaviour is a popup window. Can be omitted completely to use all available signals. SDDS_Read: Reads the signals selected and outputs the data. SDDS_Display:Formats the data so that it can be easily be displayed in a graph.

63. Industrial Control Engineering SDDS RADE Applications EN-ICE-MTA63 Offline data from the front ends Manual signal selection Signals can be selected without user interaction. Wire signals as a constant and disable the popup dialogue. One signal type can be displayed per SDDS_Display VI.
