using same string indicator in different stacked sequences

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi guys, I want to use the same string indicator in different stacked sequences. I tried to wire the output of every string constant through the sequence to my string indicator outside the sequence block but then I get an 'Wire connected to an undirected tunnel' error. What is the best way to use the same indicator for all the sequences?

Hi JoVMo,

 

You can simply use a Local Variable of that indicator inside the sequence..

Here is another option to avoid local variables (VI attached is in LV 8.20)

Hi Jo,

 

"to my string indicator outside the sequence"

This is a typical problem, when not understanding the dataflow paradigm of LabVIEW! Obey the dataflow! (And maybe go here...)

 

"What is the best way to use ... for all the sequences?"

Next typical problem when not understanding dataflow: you don't need sequences at all when properly using dataflow programming...
