return from a sub vi

[asaf]

Hi,

I am trying to return from my sub-vi to my main vi with no success.

in the sub-vi i connect the STOP button to a STOP sign .

i am attaching my vi .

CTM-config - main vi.

CTM-Main - sub vi

Thanks

Hi asaf

In your subvi's while loop (which contains the event structure) you wired a true constant to the condition terminal. Just wire the result of the stop button to the terminal (as you did in your main vi).

Hope this helps.

Hi thomas,

That's what i did in the first time but when i do it it stuck the LABVIEW.

Here is the new vi .

I have no problem if I run it. The only thing i saw is in the sequence-structure, you also have a while-loop where the length of a path is checked. As long as you don't enter a path, you can't return.

Hi Tomas,

Did you run it as a sub-vi or a vi.

if i run it as stand-alone i also have no problem , but when i call it from the second vi (CTM-Config) than the problem occurs.

I always ran from CTM-Config and had no problems.

Did you check the loop that checks the path? This may cause problems if you don't enter a value and want to stop the subvi.

Hi  Tomas,

I don't understand why it can cause a problem ,the vi is waiting for events and if it gets the STOP - change value event  it needs to "do"

the event  and to stop/close the vi (sub-vi).

Any way even if i don't push the button before selecting the file (only after the file has been selected) i don't succed in returnning to the main vi.(CTM-Config)

by the way how did you manage to return if i did not send you the file ?

can there be any other reason (maybe configuration of the LAB-VIEW or something else ?

I am working on an evaluation demo 7.0

As long as there are other loops running, it can't finish (unless you use the STOP-function). So you have to select a file.

This might be a reason - I use LV7.0 full version (Developer Suite).

I also just found the following: If I start CTM-Config.vi and just once select "PCI charactarisation mode" and then select another value, CTM-Main is opened twice.

I attach the vi's I tested. Don't replace your original ones because I deleted some subvis.
