Reset.

[bobfun]

Hi, 

Right now im having a program that will count down 12 hours. But the Elapse Timer function doesnt have the kind of function that i need. Whenever motion sensor senses a motion it should reset back to 0:00 but i cant seems to do it because of the limitation of the elapse timer function. My timer has to count 12 hours so i cannot change the time target so that it can use the AUTO RESET mode. Please help!!! Thank you very much!!

Best regards,
Bobfun.

LabVIEW is a programming language - you can make your own timer VI using the 'get date/time in seconds' and an unitialised shift register (to store the start time).

Hi bobfun,

you have been told to stick with your original thread. Why do you create the next thread for the same topic?

I think it has the functions you need…

Hi GerdW,

Hi, as it has solved my problem from the previous thread i am starting a new thread for a new topic. Yes it has a counter timer, what u didnt get is that, When the motion sensor sense a motion the timer should be reset back to 0:00 but it doesnt have the function, as it has only time target and i need it to set 12 hours, so auto reset mode doesnt work. Right now im attaching the VI so that u can better understand what i meant.

Hi bobfun,

well, when I read the help for ElapsedTime it clearly mentions a "Reset" input…

What else do you need?

Hi GerdW,

I have managed to solve the problem on myself with the VI attached. Right now how can i setup a RESET button so that it will go back to the Time target? sorry and thank you!

Hi bobfun,

please attach your VI in LV2011. Right now I don't have LV2013+ available…
