How to control the wait for panel activity object?

I am setting up a control panel for an oscilloscope and would like to have two sections: one for saving or recalling a setup and one to manually control the oscilloscope. I would like all the controls to be executed when there is panel activity, but I would like the saving and recalling steps to be separate and only operate if a button is pushed.  I do not want the saving and recalling button to activate the rest of the controls. How would I go about doing this. I'm new to programming, so I'm not sure if I've given enough information.

Just use a single while loop containing an event structure, now create appropriate events for all FP actions. (The "wait for FP activity" tool was more useful before the introduction of the event structure). Have a look at the shipping examples.

Yea, I had never used the event structure before, so I was trying to get around it. It looks easy to use. Thanks!
