Given the process mean and sigma, creates an X-Y graph of a normal Probability Distribution Function (PDF) for the process. Also returns a normal distribution array.

Inputs/Outputs

  • ci32.png # points to plot (50) —

    (I32, default 50) - The number of points to make up the PDF plot. You can normally leave this unwired.

  • cdbl.png process mean —

    (DBL) - the process mean. See the Process Mean & Sigma VI or Sample Statistics VI.

  • cdbl.png process sigma —

    (DBL) - the process sigma. See the Process Mean & Sigma VI or Sample Statistics VI.

  • cdbl.png PDF height —

    (DBL, default = 0) - The height to draw the PDF. If 0, the PDF will be drawn with a height proportional to 1/sigma - corresponding to an area of 1 under the PDF curve. When fitting a normal PDF to a histogram, use the PDF Height output from the Fit Normal PDF to Histogram VI.

  • cdbl.png PDF width (+/- sigma) —

    (DBL, default = 3.0) - The width to draw the PDF in terms of +/- sigma. If unwired, the PDF is drawn from - 3 sigma to + 3 sigma.

  • i1dnclst.png normal PDF graph —

    (X, Y Graph) - a graph of a normal PDF with the specified height width, and number of points.
