7 segment with potmeter

[Summa]

Hello all,

I got a question related to LabVIEW 7 segment display.

Im really a beginner with LabVIEW but i want to create a 7 segment display which you can adjust with a potionmeter.

So when I turn the potmeter to 1 the display must also give 1 and so forth.

In the attachment I put my file for how far i got. I only got the segment display set up and this took me a lot of time. So i really hope some one can help me a little! 

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards,

Rob

The best implementation I have seen for a 7-segment display was to put the LEDs into a cluster and make a lookup table based on the number you want to display.

Crossrulz,

I there maybe a possibility that you can send me the .vi file of your solution?

Cause like i said in my start post im really a beginner in LabVIEW and making that cluster with lookup table feels like impossible for me.

I hope i didn't ask to much of you but it really would help me out!

Thanks anyway.

Kind regards,

Rob

He attached a Snippet, which is a VI. Look it up In your Help.

It is far from impossible for you.  Do you know how to create a cluster?  Do you know how to create an array?  You just need to make an array of cluster values that correspond to the desired output.  They are very simple to make.  But if you find that next to impossible, I hgihly recommend you try some tutorials.

I dont know how to create a array. Yet.

So I will look at the files and tutorials you sent me. Hope it helps me to the solution!

Thank you for your time.

I have tried all day doing tutorials and introduction. But my lack of Labview and enlish knowledge is to big. 

I just cant get the array to work. 

I hope you can give me maybe some tips and tricks to build it ? It woud really help me out.

thanks in advance.

What have you done? The indicator itself is a cluster of seven Booleans and after creating an array constant, you have to insert a cluster constant with that number of elements. You can then drag the array to show multiple array elements and just click on the Booleans to change their value. And, as I said, the image is a Snippet that you can just drag to a block diagram after saving the file to disk.
