Create a Timer (with memory ) to use for more than one action

[bibo702]

Hi

Problem:

I have created a Timer with an ON/OFF button . But the Timer reset to zero after one action.

**The Timer should be reset to zero only when i colse it with the off Button (Or when i change the value to zero )   otherweise  i wante it  to save the initial value and be ready to use for other actions .

Any help is welcome !

Thanks

Hiere is the code

Hi bibo,

there is no code, there are just 3 images!

Please attach real code!

(And before you do this think about cleaning up, replace locals by wires, think about proper program design…)

Why is there a control without a label?

Why do you set the visibility of this labelless control always to TRUE? Why set the visibility at all?

Hi GerdW,

To be honest i am not the one who wrote this code , i just  have to improve the timer function .

The visibility is used so that when the Button ON/OFF is true  the timer will be visible . But i thinik it s not necessary ..

Hi bibo,

when you want us to improve the "timer function" then you should also attach the missing subVIs…

To be honest i am not the one who wrote this code

But you are responsible for this code now - and it is awful!

I'm not sure I would refactor that monster.  There are so many potential race conditions and bad practices that fixing stuff would probably break the heck out of it.  I would begin by trying to organize it by cleaning it up cosmetically.  Then try to understand what each section of code does before even attempting to optimize.

This will be no small task for even an experienced LabVIEW developer, and quite possibly too big a job for someone whose experience level is indicated by the question that is being asked.

I'm in no way knocking the OP; we've all had to start somewhere.  🙂
