Two loop condition (Anyone can solve this?)

[nafisnuzrin]

Hye, I try to make 2 condition run simultaneously , 1st the first indicator (X,Y,Z) read the random number every 1 second. Another one is second indicator (X2,Y2,Z2) read the same data from 1st loop but will display it every 5 second. Actually I dont know how to solve this problem because not so familiar with loop or case function. I want to use this method to implement to my final project which display current data at every 1 second and record the data to excel every 1 minute. So I hope someone can help me.

The second loop will never run until the first loop completes, think dataflow. You need to read up on the LabVIEW tutorials.

Put all in one loop and place the second set of indicators in a case structure that only turns true every 5 iterations.

Why excel? Just use a tab delimited text file.

This is all basic LabVIEW, so I would start with some simple tutorials. It does not make sense to start programming without learning the basics first.
