Load Two Subpanels with Same VI Using VI Template (*.VIT)

[DanRichards]

Overview

This is a very basic example on how you can load one template VI into two sub panels of the same front panel

Description

For a modular and flexible coding sometimes you would like to create a VI template then call this template with a different configuration to perform different functionalities. This VI calls a VI template Simulate Signal.vit that can generate a sine or a cosine signal. Then using invoke nodes you pass the parameters to the VI by accessing its reference to determine its execution mode.

Requirements

LabVIEW 2012 (or Compatible)

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

1. Download the folder "Load Multiple panels_LV2012_NI Verified"

2. Open the project and run the Main VI

3. Notice how in each panel you have a different signal being generated
4. Stop Execution in both SubPanels 

5. Open the Simulate Signal.vit from the subVIs folder in the project explorer to check the template

To get your subpanels active add two invoke nodes that call the run methods of the SubPanel VIs.
