Calculates the DC and RMS values of an input waveform or array of waveforms. This VI is similar to the Basic Averaged DC-RMS VI, but this VI gives more precise control over the individual DC and RMS calculations.
Wire data to the signal in input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance.

This VI is designed to process a single channel or multiple channels continuously, typically from within a For Loop or a While Loop.
Note The Averaged DC-RMS VI assumes that consecutive data blocks are continuous. If they are not, the VI returns a warning in measurement info, unless Ignore input start time is enabled.
