Does anyone know how to the invoke node "Reinit to Default"? (see attached VI)

Thanks a lot Berth for the explanation. If I want the listbox to show nothing, I will write nothing  "  ".

Bingo! No need to use the Invoke node.

No, it's only 10% of the BINGO. LOL .  So I am able to reinitialize only the first column of the table every 10 seconds (see this updated attached code).Now how do I go about reinitializing the whole table every 10 seconds? This is the problem I having now. I am also working on it. I attached my updated code.

Another problem I am having is when I reinitialize, I would like to restart loading data from the very top (3rd row). If you run  the code, you'll see what I am talking about.

Have you ever done what I am trying to achieve?

How about trying this?

You still have glaring errors.

• You cannot use [i] because that even increments in the reinit case, thus messing with your count.
• If you compare the reminder with zero, you'll also init at the first iterations
• If you cycle through all state, a simple +1 will correctly wrap once the state enum runs out of items.
• You are not really doing anything based on time, but on line count.

Here's a quick draft that seems to work more correctly.

And if there are really only two states that switch at regular intervals, you don't even need an enum.

Thank you very much Mr. Altenbach. This is great! I learned to stay away from feedback node. I'll stick with shift registers from now on thanks to you.

Best advice always. Thanks Mr. Altenbach!

I'm sure that's not the intended take-away lesson.  altenbach frequently advocates FOR feedback nodes as a more compact alternative to shift registers.   There are specific use cases that favor each method over the other, but also a lot (probably more) where either method can be used effectively.
