how to make 2 switches and only one them can stop and start the other?

[starfish]

hi,

having 2 case structures each has 1 start/stop button. How to let them work together when pressing only one of these 2 buttons?

Thx...

Post an example and mention your labview version.

Thx 4 the reply

i am using labview 8.2

having a variable  connected to a counter and each is connected to a switch how to let both switches work together? because if i stoped the variable the counter will increment itself and so the variable will not start from where it stopped.

Please do me an example. Then, say in a simple way what you want. I'm not understanding what you want

Yes, you problaby should use a few more words to describe what you are trying to do. This is too sparse. 😉

If you want to always operate both cases when either one of the buttons is true, you should combine the code of the two cases into one for simplicity. Of course most likely you only need one of the buttons in this case.

In any case, make a logical OR of the two buttons and feed the output to the selector terminals of the two case structures.

Remember, a VI is worth a thousand words, so attaching an simple example of your code will make it much easier for us to understand what you are trying to do. :_
