This is my first use of Labview Events. I started with Custom User Event example as it seemed to cleanly support both front panel menu buttons and my timed measurement events.
I have started trying to implement the attached state diagram and it seems to transition correctly from state to state and be responsive to my edited buttons. However, I have noticed that if servicing event takes longer than the timed events, they queue up and are serviced in a burst. I read that this is to be expected.
I guess that blocking the timers when I am servicing an event would be a solution? Could someone please advise how I should best do this? Also how can I selectively block front panel events while I am servicing the timers? The front panel does not have to be responsive while a measurement is taking place, but it would be nice to respond to Quit.
Thanks very much for your advice, Struggling Newbie
