LED Array

[jr10]

Im new at using labView and i have a problem. 

Im trying to create a VI that searches the values of an input array of numbers of a specified value. If the specified value is found in the array the VI shpuld indicate that by turning on an LED and indicating the corresponding index of the array.

I would really appreciate if someone could help me with my issue.

Sounds like homework.  Show us your attempt and we'll help you work through it...

This is what i have, but i dont think it rigth.

Nope.  Not right.  You are just determining whether the value you are looking for is equal to the length of your array.

Try "Search 1D Array".

You're not using Search 1D Array Function, rather you're using Array Size function.

Try out attached code, Index of Element output of Search 1D Array Function is -1 if the element is not found in the input array.

It's generally better to guide them to the solution rather than giving them the answer to their homework.

okay i found the search 1D array. Do i  just add a Equal to function to get to work?

[RavensFan]

Yes you need an equal function.  Actually, you could also use <0 function to determine if the element was found or not.

If you read the help for Search 1D Array, you'll see that a value of -1 is returned when the element is not found.
