The peak in the signal may introduce high frequency components (> 2000Hz in your case). So when you apply a lowpass filter, it will be affected. The disstortion when the order is high is because of your signal is of finite length (You do not have all the history data of the signal). A less than

i also tried very high order (=300)filter, and found that, when the filter order is too high, the filtered signal is disfigured. I mean very different from the original signal. why? is there any guidance as to what order of filter should i use for my signal.

i also find that compared to the original data, the filtered data (i mean in frequency domain ) changed the magnitude of the peaks, the position of the peaks are the same(this is as expected), why the magnitude changed? and the higher the order of the filter, the more the magnitude changed.

Hi, An ideal lowpass filter will let all the frequencies under the cutoff frequency (2KHz in your case) pass without any change and filt out those greater than the cutoff frequency totally. Theoretically, when the order is infinte, you'll get an ideal lowpass filter. However, infinte order is no

I'm trying to filter out the high frequency noise(>2000hz), so I use a lowpass filter(butterworth filter) and set the frequency to be 2000 hz, but i noticed that when i use different order of filters, i got different results. i have tried order=20,40,80,200, what on earth does the filter order mean

Hi all, Hurray, the I/O Assistant does work. Thanks to your various help. My HPIB gear responds in GPIB I/O Assistant. I also see a working I/O Block Diagram now. Besides, the driver for my TEK DSA602 seems to work too ( as LabView Instrument vi ). I realize that I have a long long way to go, B

Hi Peter, You should be able to use the IO assistant from within the Block Diagram in LabVIEW. From the splash screen in LabVIEW select new, and then from the templates choose GPIB>Read and Display. Now in the block diagram you can double click the instrument IO assistant and configure it to query

Peter, It looks like Instrument I/O Assistant is not installed. You can install it from the Driver CD that came with LabVIEW, or you can download an installer for it from NI's website http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/954feaeea92d90918625674b00658b83/f3ca0298c715bcd886256e82005758e5?OpenDocument"

LabVIEW can do VISA and NI-488.2 directly; you don't need C++ or VB. First of all, you should see if there are instrument drivers available for your instruments. There are thousands of free drivers available on http://ni.com/idnet/. Search there first, because if you can find a driver for any of

The most likely cause of that error is calling a function in a DLL with the incorrect number of parameters. Too many or too few parameters can mess things up quite well (trust me on this one - been there, done that). Usually, no damage is done. Check the function in your DLL and reproduce the param
