reset indicator to zero

[adamkse]

Hi all. I have tried to make a counter and it seems to work but i can not get it to reset after the program has run, it holds the previous value in memory. I have tried using variables, shift registers and property nodes but i cant quite get it. Can some one tell me what I should do?

Thanks

Please initialize the feedback node. I think that would do the trick. Could you post the vi here please?

Exactly.

The feedback node is a lot like a shift register.  If you do not initialize them they are DESIGNED to maintain the last value even between calls.  Its very common to use USRs (uninitialized shift registers) as a functional global variable (AKA LV2 global)

Thanks man that sorted it out, cant believe I never saw this.

I didnt post the whole vi because other people are trying to do the same thing, i am finished now that this error is sorted but didnt want anyone to see.

Thanks again
