Simple Led timing

[zezendapuss]

Hey all,

I would like to add a timing fuction to the attached program such that:

- Keep Led1 on for t seconds while keeping Led2 free for toggling.
In other words, while one led is on for a certain period of time, one should be able to manipulate (toggle) Led2 independent of Led1.

Try to share actual code instead of image,

Do you want to Keep LED 1 ON For t Sec and during the same time LED 2 should be OFF and VIce Versa?

Hey thanks.

 Attached please find it.  It's a simple code, still i am not able to figure out a proper way.

Just spend some time reading: Introduction to LabVIEW https://learn.ni.com/learn/article/labview-tutorial and https://learn.ni.com/

I have spend time reading. Still could not figure out. Any suggestions/comments instead of stating the obvious would be appreciated.

No i would like to keep LED 1 ON for t sec and at the same time should be able to toggle LED 2 freely.

Try this (5 can be changed based on your T Value better keep as Control)

Sorry that you were not able to do it.
-Please check Timing VIs and Functions:https://www.ni.com/docs/en-US/bundle/labview-api-ref/page/menus/categories/programming/timing-mnu.ht...
-You need to use loop to continuously run and update the indicator value
-You might try Using the Elapsed Time Express VI to use for your case 1 toggle LED 1
-You can try looking statemechine tutorial https://www.ni.com/en/support/documentation/supplemental/16/simple-state-machine-template-documentat...

stating the obvious would be appreciated.
