How to create a control with two terminals?

Hi there!

I need to create a control that has got to terminal in the diagram window. The terminal must not be connected to each other by wire but the both must respond to the control instruction the same way. Is that possible to be done?

Thanks
Tiano

Hi,
Are you speaking about "clusters"?
Cluster is the object which may include several different controls inside. For example one numeric and another is boolean (or any other types).
To create cluster on the front panel goto "Controls->Array&Cluster and choose cluster. Then to fill it with elenents simply take any other control and place it inside the cluster.
To read data (on block diagram) stored in different elements you must use "unbundle" or "unbundle by name" functions from "Functions->Cluster" palette.
You can get more info from help file.

Good luck.

Oleg Chutko.

Hi,
It's me again.
I've found the previous answer to your question conserning the usage of local variables.
So now I think that I've understood you incorrectly. If so then forget about clusters. It's my fault.

In any case good luck.
