CLD: timer expressi VI or my own functional global VI?

[sqrt(-1)]

Hi all,

I'm preparing for CLD exam. I had a look to preparation kit exercises and a couple of exam samples.

It seems that exam often requires the use of a Timer (a simple timer or a "pausable" timer).

In order to save time during CLD exam,may I use the Timer Express VI without a point deduction?

Thanks all

Hi,

Yes.  The key is to know how the Timer Express VI works prior to the exam.  That way one doesn't have to spend time reviewing its features.

I believe some of the exercises us the Timer Express VI and some of the exercises use a FGV.

You can use the Timer express VI, if you feel you will run out of time. Else create your own according to the requirement in an Action Engine. In case you have to pause the timer, then you have to build a logic outside the Timer express VI which is again a double work.

Hello,

I have an example of timer that I implemented in the CLD exam with the states:

- Start
- Check time
- Pause
