How do I set a Default value for a LabVIEW 2009 Front Panel Numeric Control? I have several input values that are really configuration parameters that I want to set with non-zero Default values. I want them to be the values shown when the Front Panel is first displayed before any code is run.
I really don't want to use both the Minimum and Maximum Default Limits for this since I still want to be able to set an acceptable range for the Values.
Shouldn't I be able to specify a non-zero Default value for these inputs?
Solved! Go to Solution.

enter the desired value, then "right-click..data operations...make current value default". Save the VI.

This does not sound right. Can you attach an example and detailed instructions to demonstrate this?

"turn on vi"
Do you mean that you 'run" some top level VI and then look at the front panel of some sub VI.
The sub VI could be showing the last value used or passed in by a calling VI
If you close everything down and just open the VI from disk without "turning on" what are the values.

Put the value in the numeric box, which you wants to make default. now right click on the numeric box and go to Data operation>Make current value default. Now save your program by pressing Cont+S...see attached image
