Right-click on the output tunnels to turn off the autoindexing.  If using LabVIEW 2012, then it is "Last Value" for the tunnel type.

Thanks for reply,

It works for "for loop" but what about "event structure loop" still is error for that.

Hi sam,

 

disable indexing of "VISA resource" wire output tunnels in every loop in every (event) case...

 

Btw.:

- It's no good idea to have events running for long/undetermined periods of time. Really!

- It's no good idea to hide (or even delete?) labels of controls/terminals...

- It's no good idea to start coding with a lot of local variables. They tend to lead to race conditions...

- It's a good idea to clean up a block diagram. It is easier to read then...

Best regards,
GerdW

Right-click on the output tunnel and uncheck "Use Default if Unwired".  You will now be forced to wire the VISA Resource through each case.

Dear Gerdw

thanks for reply,

-I put 1000 ms for event stuctre time out if you mean that.

-the labels were hiden for better reading. anyway the progam with full lable is attached.

-just 3 local variables are used do you think it makes a problem.

and sorry I didn't understand what do you mean by disable indexing.

thanks

I unchecked "Use Default if Unwired" and error is this:

"The type of the source is 1-D array of
VISA session of class.
The type of the sink is VISA session of class."

You need to do the same thing to the tunnel for the VISA wire on the innermost For Loop that you did for the For Loop that is a couple steps out.

 

As Crossrulz said in his post "Right-click on the output tunnels to turn off the autoindexing.  If using LabVIEW 2012, then it is "Last Value" for the tunnel type."
