Slowing down the lightbulb

[Jennifer Elaine Crozier]

hello...

I know I can debug a labview VI by clicking on
the lightbulb, and watching all the values that are
being input and output.

Is there a way I can slow this down?
It is going too fast for me to read.

Thanks
Jennifer

Jennifer,

Unless there is something in the LabVIEW ini file, I don't believe you can do this. I would certainly be intersted in knowing how to do this myself.

However; I will offer an alternative, which is what I do. Just hit the pause button. It holds the values on the screen (in highlight execution mode). That in combination with probes will give you a good idea of what is going on.

Good luck

Try right clicking on the lines you want to see and adding a probe.

Also add breakpoints. In a loop, for example, the probes may change too
quickly to be able to digest what is actually happening. Breakpoints pause
the execution when they are reached, giving you time to examine what may be
several probes before allowing execution to continue.
