Overview
This example uses a LabVIEW state machine architecture and an array of steps to run through a list of values and hold them for a given period of time.

Description
This type of application can be useful for controlling oven temperature or force pressure value over a multi-step long duration test. User can modify the step cluster to use your own data, this example use one numeric value and one boolean for each step.

User can modify the states or add more states by editing the array control on the front panel. When you run the VI it will run through all of the states in order

Requirements

  • LabVIEW 2012 (or compatible)

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

 

  1. Modify the states or add more states by editing the array control on the front panel
