The Relay guy is just a shot in the dark. There's a switch in the dialog that configures it to either put out 0's or no data when it's not enabled. I've just been using Express VIs because they're simple and user-friendly. I don't have the time I wish I had to learn lighter algorithms. I would like to lighten things up, though, but getting the thing to work first is my priority. The only thing I wouldn't be able to do on my own so far is the DAQ Assistant Analog input and Analog output. The formulas and graph express guys are excessive.
I apologize for my earlier comment. I now see the nuance in the dialog box for the setting where it outputs empty data if you want when set to false as opposed to a series of zeroes which was the way I originally read it. I'd still recommend the case structure, but the Express VI could work as well.
I was hesitant to put that VI up--I hadn't had time to clean up wires. It's a good habit, albeit an indication of a lapse in end-user convience development. The wires should repel each other and automatically be clean, like in some of the newer open-source Pspice simulators.
I understand. I just want to suggest ways to keep things clean as you go along. Something like the mismatched wires can cause you major headaches in debugging later on.
Anyway, I really appreciate your advice and time. Hopefully I can have a working demo by the end of the week-- independent research project design review : ). Thank goodness I'm not a EE, I'd be dangerous.
You're welcome. It seems like an interesting project you are working on.
