Inputs/Outputs

  • c1ddbl.png X

    X is the input array.

  • i1ddbl.png Y[i]=X[i]/Max|X|

    Y[i]=X[i]/Max|X| is the output array of the same size as X.

  • idbl.png max|X|

    max|X| is the maximum absolute value in the input array X.

  • ii32.png error

    error returns any error or warning from the VI. You can wire error to the Error Cluster From Error Code VI to convert the error code or warning into an error cluster.

  • This VI calculates Y[i]=X[i]/Max|X| using the following equation:

    where s is the maximum absolute value in X.

    You can use this VI to normalize sequences within the range [–1:1]. This VI is particularly useful if the sequence is a zero mean sequence.
