What do you mean by different types of state machines in Labview?  A state machine can have many different states, based on the implementation.

However, typically in Labview, a state machine consists of a While Loop that contains a Case Statement.  The Case Statement is normally indexed by an enumerator that contains a list of each state that describes the system.  This is its basic form.   Whatever is put "around" the state machine depends on the rest of the implementation. 

Are you looking for a particular architecture?

According to labVIEW: Advanced programming Techniques, Second Edition. There are four types of State machines: Sequence, Test Executive, Classical, and Queued. For the most part, those are just how they are used, not really much stucturally changes.  Try taking a look at the Application Design Patterns: State Machines.

Good Luck!
