Loop Timing

[altenbach]

(I meant that your various inner loops cannot be stopped by a  control on the front panel because they never see the value change. I did not comment on your timing logic ;))

Here's a simplified picture of the code I had in mind (sorry, I no longer have LabVIEW 6.1). The false case has the blue wire straight through but is otherwise empty.

Okay, so I like yours better.

I would highly recommend that you implement altenbach's solution (which is essentially the same as I suggested).  While the solution with the local variables may work it is much more complicated than necessary and breaks the natural LabVIEW data flow.  You can do all that you need to do in a nice small block diagram as altenbach has shown in his example.

Yeah, no kidding, I'll give it a shot and see what happens!!!  Thanks guys...

Yes, yours is basically the same, we must have replied at the same time. Another one of these race conditions... 😉
