Execute Straigh-Line Move Function block "all the time"

I am using the Softmotion module to control my Solidworks Assembly in Labview. I am using the vitrual motors that are connect on the resource on the Straight-Line Move block. I want to execute the block "all the time" so my Solidworks simulation will always update. Anyone got an quick easy tip on how this is possible?

 

Thank you!

Hi Claponio,

 

I believe that what you are looking for is an invoke node with the method 'start', which can be connected to your Straight-Line Move Function block. The movement will continue until the VI is stopped or a 'stop' invoke node is executed. There is an inbuilt example that does what you need, see Help>Find Examples > Straight Line Move.lvproj

 

 

Let me know if this helps!

 

Leah
