set initial value for numerical control

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello LV users,

 

I have a VI that is used to initialize some experimental equiptment. It passes on a cluster of ten or so numerical control DBL integers as parameters. Everytime I open the programe the values are reset back to zero and I have to enter the values back in. Is there any way to set default values for  the controls so I do not have to change them everytime I open the program.

 

Thanks

Enter the number you like in the control. Then right click the control and choose "Make current value default".

Wowden,

 

If you want to set default values for multiple numeric control's in your cluster in one go, 

-Type in the desired default values

- Right click on your cluster, browse to 'data operations'

- Choose 'Make current values default. 

 

 Similarly, if you need to set defaults for  multiple clusters or multiple controls on your front panel,

- Choose 'Edit' in the menu 

- Choose "make current values default' (This sets defaults for all controls/constants etc. in one go)
