Hi everyone, I have a step in my main sequence that runs an interactive dialog box to the operator. It checks whether or not it receives communication from the slave device. If for some reason the operator wants to "TERMINATE (ABORT" the dialog box I have an "ABORT" button on the front panel to allow them to do so.
I want this sequence step to behave as follows:
1. If COMMUNCATION = RECEIVED and ABORT BUTTON = NOT PUSHED, then the step status should = Passed
2. If COMMUNCATION = NOT RECEIVED and ABORT BUTTON = NOT PUSHED, then the step status should = Failed
3. If ABORT BUTTON = PUSHED while in the midde of running the step, then the step status should = Terminated
Right now I have the step set up as a Pass/Fail step which uses a boolean output from the VI. My issues is I am having trouble with Item 3 above. I am right now putting in the Post Expression for the step the following to handle Item 3:
Locals.VIAborted == True ? RunState.Engine.TerminateAll() && Step.Result.Status == "Terminated": ""
Sometimes, I do not see Terminated when the Abort Button = Pushed.
Am I handling this correctly or is there a better way to do this?
Thanks so much!
