TimeStamp when boolean light turns true

[kepham]

Hello,

I wanted to have a timestamp to indicate the date and time whenever my boolean time turns true... I am having a hard time wrapping my head around implementing a time string whenever my boolean light turns on. Any tips to implement this?

Thank you!

What is the purpose of your shift register?  All it does is delay the boolean light until the next iteration.

When you want something to happen when a condition is TRUE, put it in the True case of a case structure.

I would recommend you learn more about LabVIEW from here. How to Learn LV

When you want to detect changes of boolean states then you should use the Pt-By-Pt-BooleanCrossing function…

Hi,

Thank you!

I corrected the vi with a case structure, and the light turns on when it hit the true condition, thank you, however my true intention is to display a time string that shows the date and time the light turns on.

Thank you

Once again, I overlooked the solution, I added the get time/date string inside the case structure. Thank you so much to you both.
