stop 2 while loops into another

[lacoule]

hi,

I'm a beginner in labview and i've got  problem!!!

My program is composed of 3 while loops (2 into one) and i'd like to stop it with only one STOP button.

I can't use local variable with stop so i'm wedged!!!

I use LV 6.0

I think it's very difficult but .....

Sorry for my english, it is very bad!!!

Thanks!!

Ok it's good!!

i've used my stop with local variable and then i've changed his mechanical action.

thank you!!

Hi Lacoule,

I guess you could not use local variables for boolean controls with a latch function, only a switch function works with local variables.

One simple way to achieve what u want is, (assuming that you stop button is in the inner loop) use stop button to stop the inner + enter a pre-defined string or numerical value in a global or local variable and when the control comes out to the outer while loops, just use a  compare function to generate a true state and can stop the other two loops.

I hope this helps.
