TSA Vector Normal Distribution (Waveform) VI
- Updated2025-12-08
- 2 minute(s) read
Generates a pseudorandom univariate or multivariate (vector) time series from different types of distribution. You must manually select the polymorphic instance to use.

Inputs/Outputs
samples
—
samples specifies the number of samples of the generated time series Xt. The value must be greater than or equal to 0. The default is 1024.
mean
—
mean specifies the mean values this VI uses to define the center of the multivariate normal distribution.
covariance
—
covariance specifies the covariance matrix this VI uses to define the multivariate (vector) normal distribution. This matrix must be symmetric.
error in (no error)
—
error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.
Xt
—
Xt returns the random multivariate (vector) time series.
error out
—
error out contains error information. This output provides standard error out functionality. |
TSA Random Sequence Generation Details
This VI generates a pseudorandom sequence from different distributions, such as the normal, uniform, chi-square, t, and F distributions.
