You must manually select the polymorphic instance to use.

Example

HRV AR Spectrum (Array Unevenly Sampled RR)

	RR specifies the RR intervals that this VI uses to calculate the power spectral density (PSD).
	raw RR specifies the raw RR intervals. This VI interpolates raw RR intervals to an evenly-sampled time series.
	AR settings specifies parameters for the AR spectrum method. frequency bins specifies the number of frequency bins for which this VI computes the single-sided PSD. The length of the single-sided PSD is (frequency bins/2+1). The default is 1024. order specifies the order of the AR model. order must be greater than 0. The default is 16. method specifies the method this VI uses to estimate the AR model. 0 Forward-Backward (default) 1 Least-Squares 2 Yule-Walker 3 Burg-Lattice 4 Geometric-Lattice dB on? specifies whether this VI returns the PSD in decibels or in a linear scale. If dB on? is TRUE, this VI returns the PSD in decibels. If dB on? is FALSE, this VI returns the PSD in a linear scale. The default is FALSE. frequency bands specifies the frequency ranges of very low frequency (VLF), low frequency (LF), and high frequency (HF) to calculate the FFT measurements. VLF high specifies the high limit of the VLF frequency band, in hertz. The default is 0.04. VLF low specifies the low limit of the VLF frequency band, in hertz. The default is 0.

HF high specifies the high limit of the HF frequency band, in hertz. The default is 0.4. HF low specifies the low limit of the HF frequency band, in hertz. The default is 0.15.
	error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.
	interpolation rate specifies the rate of interpolation, in hertz, for converting raw RR intervals into an evenly-sampled time series. The default is 2.
	AR spectrum returns the AR spectrum of the input RR intervals. f0 returns the lower boundary, in hertz, of the frequency range. df returns the frequency increment, in hertz. S(f) returns the magnitude of the PSD at each frequency. The value of dB on? determines the unit of measurement for S(f).
	AR measurements returns the VLF, LF, and HF information of the input RR intervals. VLF peak frequency returns the peak frequency of the PSD estimate in VLF bands, in hertz. VLF peak amplitude returns the peak amplitude of the PSD estimate in VLF bands, in milliseconds squared. LF peak frequency returns the peak frequency of the PSD estimate in LF bands, in hertz. LF peak amplitude returns the peak amplitude of the PSD estimate in LF bands, in milliseconds squared. HF peak frequency returns the peak frequency of the PSD estimate in HF bands, in hertz. HF peak amplitude returns the peak amplitude of the PSD estimate in HF bands, in milliseconds squared. VLF power returns the absolute value of power in VLF bands, in milliseconds squared. LF power returns the absolute value of power in LF bands, in milliseconds squared. HF power returns the absolute value of power in HF bands, in milliseconds squared. LF norm returns the normalized unit of power in LF bands, which represents the relative value of LF power in proportion to the total power minus the VLF power. HF norm returns the normalized unit of power in HF bands, which represents the relative value of HF power in proportion to the total power minus the VLF power. LF/HF returns the ratio of LF power to HF power. VLF returns the distribution of power in VLF bands. LF returns the distribution of power in LF bands. HF returns the distribution of power in HF bands.
