Overview: This example program shows the differences in how an event structure registers value changes.
Description: A direct change to a control on the front panel will register an event. Also, a the value(signaling) property node will register the event. If the value property node is used, the event will not be registered. Any programmatic value changes need to use the value(signaling) property node.
Requirements: LabVIEW 2012 (or compatible). Hardware: none.
Steps to Implement or Execute Code:
1. Run the VI.
2. Use controls to view the action.
3. Change Numeric value.
4. Change Value Control and press Value button.
5. Change Value (Signaling) Control and press Value Signaling button.
A pop-up will appear when a value changed event is handled. Note that merely setting a value property does not generate a value changed event.
