Deleting a Front Panel Datalog Record

Delete specific front panel logging records in LabVIEW by marking records for deletion, purging marked data, then committing changes.

To delete a specific datalog record, complete the following steps.

  1. Select Operate » Data Logging » Retrieve... on the front panel or the block diagram and interactively view the record you want to delete.
  2. To mark the record for deletion, click Delete Data Record.
    If you click the button again, the record is no longer marked for deletion.
    The record is not yet deleted.
  3. To delete all the records you marked for deletion, Select Operate » Data Logging » Purge Data.
  4. To exit retrieval mode, click Commit & Exit Retrieval.
    If you do not delete the marked records before you click Commit & Exit Retrieval, LabVIEW prompts you to delete the marked records.
