Hi everyone,
I'm new to Labview and I would like your opinion on my VI, to improve myself and better understand how Labview works.
My main goal is to create a test interface where the user can select a test option (A or B) and start a test corresponding to the choice made. I also create a subVI called when test option A is choose. It displayed test instruction to be made before executing the main test code. What I did is only a draft and doesn't include real test, only dummy test in order to practice and progress toward my final goal.
Everything worked but I probably made some beginners mistake which could lead to errors hard to troubleshoot with more complex test routine.
I'm looking forward to your feedback and they are well appreciated,
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Can you backsave to an older version?

Here's how the subVI could look like. No duplicate code!
(Note that the default is enabled, so use default if unwired tunnels. You can combine multiple properties into one node. etc.)
(Suggested improvements: (1) Make it scalable. List files with the given pattern in the desired folder, then iterate over all with the back/next buttons, no matter how many there are. (2) Add error handling, (3) instead of forming the paths, index into an array of predefined paths, etc..)

Great! Thanks again 🙂
It gives me plenty of stuff to improve and learn from these suggestions.
