7.7 Histogram Monitoring

RTDAQ can display histograms that have been created by the datalogger. The
display will be updated as quickly as new data is received from the datalogger.
For this to window to function, there must be a Histogram output instructio
defined within the CRBasic program which is running in the datalogger to
which RTDAQ is connected.

RTDAQ does not create histograms from time series

n

measurements. It only displays histograms that have been
calculated and stored by the datalogger.

7.7.1 Histogram Overview

A histogram is a graphical representation of a frequency distribution that uses
bins that have unique ranges. The value associated with each bin is
proportional to how often a particular measurement’s value is measured within
that bin's range.

To view real-time histograms from your datalogger in RTDAQ, first ensure
that a proper histogram program is running in the datalogger you wish to
