Change the datatypes of your globals to I32, or use one of these, depending on the datatype of the global:

Coercion dots are not necessarily a problem (although changing representation can cause you to lose data).

In this case, the coercion dots are there because your global variables are of different representation than the wire going into them, so you have two options:

1. Change the representation of the globals to I32 (probably better, but can have repercussions in other VIs).
2. Use the default value terminal on the primitives and a coercion to have the primitives output the representation you want.

This of course ignores the point that globals are generally problematic.

Turn on Show Context Help and mouse over the wires to display the data types

GREAT!!!
THANK YOU EVERYONE..
