temp reading location selection

[siva5577]

hi

here the problem which i am having for some time without a solution.

this system have T1-T4 are reading from data logger and 6 display locations. the selection buttom is to direct the incoming reading to appropriate location for view as well as for recording the data in to file.

for example: in the first test the user might assign the T1 to display 6, T2 to display 3, T3 to dispaly 1 and T4 to display 5 by given selection button. not selected display will display nothing or zero. on the second test the user might change the reading to different display location.

I'm guessing that you clicked on the insert image button and you pointed to images on your local drive. That will not work unless your local drive is a web server. You can click the attachment button if you want to include images that you've saved locally. Better yet would be to just attach the actual VI.

What are these different displays? Charts, graphs, different types of numerics (i.e. thermometer, gauge, etc.)?

Siva5577,

sorry, but LV8 says: "Pump.vi is not a valid LabView file" (LV7.1 does not load it either).

VERY VERY ODD. THE VI NOT EVEN OPEN IN MY PC. STRANGE

I WILL REPLY YOU ONCE SORTED THIS ISSUE

THANKS

Here I have attached the file for your view. This is un-complete VI.

There are 40 thermocouple inputs available from Agilent data logger. But System have about 100 thermocouple so only 40 will be connected in a single time. The user can select the thermocouple position from the drop down menu which is provided. 40 thermocouple readings will be saved in TXT format with headings.

I would like to design this application as: once the thermocouple positions selected by the user,

- the selected name will be used as heading for the thermocouple reading

- on the page 2, the are 2 stages with numeric indicators. The selected name will display the reading on correct position.

Example:- if T2 - 3 selected for thermocouple 1, then the thermocouple 1 reading will be display on page 2 at position T2 - 3.

Is this possible?

Let me know

Hello siva,

sorry I had no time to program the last days...

But: I think I already suggested a lookup-table design.
First you make an list (on paper!) where you assign a number to each position (like 0 = T1-1, 1 = T1-2, 2= T2-1 and so on). Then you make an enum of this. In the configuration page you let the user select from this enum (for each sensor). So you get for sensor 1 a number like 2 (= T2-1). On display page you make a case selector: if the number for the first sensor is 2 then display the value in indicator on position T2-1 (and so on).

thanks for the code. it working. in the beginning i dindnt insert FOR LOOP on the WHILE LOOP. that is the reason my code didnt work. now it is working. learning curve. how i can rate for you.
