block execution stop button

Hello

IM runing in which I don't want the user simply push the button to run but to push one another a way starts a sequence shatdown

How can I block happening or in other words, in which case I should use to do so?

Thank you

Shai

Best practice is to hide the button cancel execution when the VI is running. Instead, place a stop button on the front panel. In doing so, you can easily turn on/off or show/hide this button by the use of knots of property.

Read several times on the forums of NIs: using the button abandon to stop your VI is similar to the use of a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.

  • Could not find the "stop" button after updating to firefox 8

    I've just updated to Firefox 8 and can't find the "stop" button to stop a website from loading if inadvertently, I hit the enter button too soon. I looked under Customize toolbar, but do not see it. Icons, what i've got are back, forward, address bar, Star, down arrow reload, google search bar, blocker for popups and at home.
    Thank you

    Firefox 4 and newer versions, go, Stop and reload buttons are combined into a single button at the right end of the toolbar URL or address. The button changes depending on the type of activity:

    • green arrow GB when you type in the address bar
    • Red Stop ("X") button while the page is loading
    • Reload (circular arrow) to gray when the page is finished loading.

    There are separate buttons:

    1. Open the Customize the toolbar by clicking the Firefox button > Option > toolbars OR by clicking View > toolbars > customize if using the menu OR bar right click in an empty space on a toolbar and select Customize
    2. While customizing the window is open, Stop and reload buttons will show separate from the address bar and the search bar
    3. While customizing the window is open, drag the buttons anywhere on the Navigation toolbar
      • order Reload-Stop will bring together into a single button
      • order Stop-Reload will remain in separate keys
      • or drag a "separator" in the window customize between Reload-Stop and that they remain separated
    4. Click done at the bottom right of the window customize to finish

  • is there a stop button - as that is to say - to make the browser stop downloading pictures or applications on the site that you visit? Thank you

    I can't stop firefox trying to download all the photos or the visited site im applications. is there a stop button. ?

    The stop in Firefox 4 button is by default at the end of the address bar (where you type web addresses) and becomes a button reload once responsible for the Web site.

    There are also opportunities for blocking images on specific sites or in general.

  • While loop, wait for the function and the stop button!

    Hello

    I have a while loop and a stop button. Inside my While loop - I have a 'Wait (x ms)' function. If I press the stop button, it does not block the program immediately, he expects ms x then stops the program. How can I get rid of this?

    Thanks in advance for the help!


  • Why the STOP button stops not timed loop.

    Hello world

    I had a rather complicated code launched against me. I had to change program action unique (and many other things) when ACQUIRING a button has been clicked making timed measurements. I was able to add the time... but I want the loop to stop once you click on the STOP button.

    I have attached a very simplified version of my code.

    So if you start and press the ACQUIRE the program generates random numbers (to simulate the measure) and records them with a device ID. The program stops once the total is for instance in the default settings after 20 sec.

    But it does not stop when you press the STOP button. MY QUESTION: why not?

    FOR INFO:

    In my actual code, there are 10 events instead of only 1.

    It doesn't have to stop immediately, inbetween iterations (because I already tried to include the timed stop Structure VI and it did not work either).

    I also used the execution to highlight, but it did not help me.

    Thank you for any help or suggestion!

    Lisa

    Lisa,

    First of all, thank you for explaining clearly what your problem and to present a simplified program.

    The problem with your program is very simple. The loop inside the structure of the event begins when the acquisition: Mouse Down event occurs, which seems to be what you wanted. The default condition for the case of the event is "front Lock (defer the treatment of the actions of the user) until the end of the occurrence of the event." This is controlled by a checkbox at the bottom of the evetn installation dialog box. What this means is that the stop button is not recognized until AFTER the event is complete.  BUT the case of the event cannot complete until the while loop stops.

    The Solution: Move the loop outside the case of the event.  Generally speaking, event must not contain any code that could take more than a few milliseconds to run and certainly should not depend on the user's other actions to complete.

    Look at the design of producer/consumer models (events) for advice.  Also learn how to use queues to pass data between loops rather than local variables.

  • STOP button for program waiting in a state machine

    Hello

    I am trying to create a state machine in order to control a conveyor, mixer pump and linear actuator. Each component runs in sequential order all the time, so I thought that using a state machine would probably be the best architecture program.

    The problem that I am facing, it's that there are States that require more time before the start of the next State. For example, I need to be able to run the pump or mixer for an another period of time. I understand that simply using the VI of waiting is not a good idea because it removes the option to stop the program on the chance that something goes wrong (at least until the end waiting for execution function). I tried to use clock calendar in order to force the program to wait for a term between States, but I found myself with all nested in loops for each State that require stop buttons separate who ends up doing the complicated program (this is what we see in the attached VI).

    I looked at other threads mentioned using notifiers or the structures of the event, but since I use a state machine, I don't know how to use them with several States.

    If there is a way to force synchronization between States while maintaining control of stop button and, eventually, the ability to run any code while you wait, please let me know. I have attached the VI I train, and the emphasis is on the 'wait to hatch open' State.

    Thank you.

    That your state machine shift register is a cluster.  First point is an enum for say the next State to go to.  Second element is a digital that defines how long to wait if the next State is a wait.  Third point is an another enum as first to tell what State to go after the wait ends.

    Start of the loop of State machine, ungroup the first point to know what State to go to.  In your state of waiting, when you have determined the wait is made, ungroup the 3rd point.  Set the first element of the cluster machine of the State to be this enum even if he goes on the next State.  Basically leave wire to move the machine of State wear with it another State of the State, not only the next State, but also what would be the next state when the next State is completed (in case there are several choice.)

  • Why push button and stop button does not work in the structure of the casing and buckle my VI? (code attached)

    I am a beginner. I'm trying to create a simple VI only switches beetween two types of signals like sine and triangle when someone press on the push button and at the same time, save the data in the file to my desktop. I also have a stop button which no longer record data.  Here are my questions and dproblems:

    1. when I press the button, it does not the true and false in the structure of the case so that I can see the triangle wave stops and begins the sine waveform table.

    2 when I press the stop button, I want the program still running, but the process of writing data in time the loop stops. I don't mind if the graph of the wave stops too but it would be better for the user to see the wave form is running, but the data will stop recording.

    3. Although the condition of the loop did not accept the local variable for the stop button inside the loop or within the structure of the case, so I put the button outside all the loops and the structure.  (I know that this is a problem, I do not know how to use a single button several times in a single code. The local variable did not work the world premiere? I have to?)

    4. the data file it creates hase a lot of lines and columns. I expect a time column and a column of mixed signals based on the push button amplititude this user press every time.  I did that with the acquisition of data and a sensor, it automatically gives me the voltage and time in a column. I tried 2D and 1 d and it has not changed anything.

    Thank you for your help

    Like you said, you read only your entries at the beginning, then whatever value they had before you hit run is worth to be seen by the rest of the code. Programming LabVIEW is based entirely on the data flow and parallelism. It is incredibly powerful and has led to its success over the years (coupled with graphical programming), but is usually one of the first things the new developers stumble on. This is a simple resource to familiarize themselves with its functioning. The function to highlight execution is a great way to watch how your application uses data streams.

    Simple code goes like this:

    • Containing the main code of while loop

      • Inside of the whole loop is all user interaction code or modify the code entry
      • Stop the terminal loop is attached to stop certain criteria or user selection of a stop button
    • Loop initialization above all if necessary
    • Closing referrals and communications, etc after all loop

    It's very simple code. If you want to watch in more advanced architectures that are scalable, Google "LabVIEW State Machine" or "LabVIEW producer consumer."

    If you are just starting, you should do a free training have the capabilities of LabVIEW.

  • Judgment of multiple while loop running at different rates to stop using the single Boolean stop button

    Hello

    I'm on the block diagram of 4 loops, do different tasks. They are independent of each other, but need to see the unique front panel - some of the wonders of labview!

    Now, I want to have a unique stop button which will in fact be a back button to return to the main screen by stopping all four loops on the block diagram. I used the stop button (switch released) with local variable to stop the three other loops. He stops the vi but it is not a good stop vi to stop properly and the grid on the performance of the front panel. Now all loops run also at different rates, so it is not necessary that all loops are stopped immediately when one of the loop is stopped. Can't really think of a better way. All the ideas!

    Kind regards

    Austin

    Variables local is ok in this case, but you will need to keep the control in switching mode (no lock).

    A better solution would be to have all the loops as a structure of event all listening value stop change. Or have the Stop value change event generate a user defined output event or similar.

  • How to create a stop button to send commands via the serial port and finish labview vi?

    I want to send two commands on my camera, the first to stop the execution and the second to get out of the remote control mode. This is done on RS232. What I want is a way to put this in my existing VI that tells the device to run. Now if I stop the program, that the devices just run the last command unless I have stop manually. How can I set up a stop button that are not sent to all orders except in such a hurry? I tried the structure of the case, but didn't know how to put a part of 'status quo' If island stops in the while loop is not pressed the button.


  • Why the STOP button does not stop this vi?

    Hello

    I took an example of Labview 2011 called "soul hollow period-Low Freq 1 Ctr.vi. This example vi measures one period, but, I want to measure the period over and over again, so I put it in a WHILE loop, but the STOP button does not stop at the vi.  Instead, I have to use ABORT to stop the vi...

    How can I stop this vi?

    Dave

    It does not replace the time-out.  The while loop is a separate beast from the meter reading.  You wouldn't want your loop due to always make you miss the error messages, would you?

    Usually just clear the error message of time-out on the counters.

    You get the message twice because the loop runs in fact twice.  The first time the stop button is read as false as soon as the loop begins.  Then you click on it.  At the same time that it takes 10 seconds for the timeout counter to occur - when he does it gives you the error.  Then, the loop runs again.  This time it reads the key stop as true, because you clicked on it during the timeout of 10 seconds of the last loop.

    A time loop allows everything inside to complete execution before the end, then you will have to wait for an another timeout of 10 seconds to occur which produces another error.

    Unless you need a measure of very, very low frequencies I set your time-out to a more reasonable number and simply erase the mistake if it matches 200474.

  • Is it possible to connect my Application ' Stop' button with the "Run" button of LabVIEW?

    Problem - one of my clients recently tested my new LabVIEW application and asked how the arrested LabVIEW application can be restarted without clicking on the "Run" (right arrow) button.

    Is possible solution - possible to connect my Application ' Stop' button with the "Run" button of LabVIEW?

    Thank you!

    The big problem is in your Acquistion to stop audio event. You run the LabVIEW stop sign which is the equivalent of hitting the Cancel button in the toolbar.  (See contextual help on that).  You can stop the acquisition, but you don't want to stop your LabVIEW program.  You need this case in the event your computer to transition state in a sleep mode when you do not make any purchase.  Then hit the purchase button to start again transitions the machine state in the acquisition.

    In your case of program output, you want really to leave LabVIEW it.  You want to run and stop commands like closing the com port and one of these activeX references.  Then allow it to stop the while loop.  Turn the LabVIEW out outside the loop so that once everything is cleaned, your application may close.  You probably want to wrap this command in a case structure so that if you are in the execution environment, it leaves your application.  But if you are in the development environment, you don't want to cause your LabVIEW environment stop.  Another thing is that right now, you actually have a race condition in the Exit event.  The com port will close first or LabVIEW will come out.  There is no defined order of execution.

    Alternatively, you can have an event to close panel? in this way, you haven't accidentally short circuit all your program by pressing the X key.  You want to capture this event, discard it.  And if you want to not actually closed, did trigger the Exit Program button so that you can gracefully shutdown.

  • What happened to the STOP button? It was a very useful tool.

    This button stopped the download of web sites that is loaded is stuck. He also stopped the ads annoying downloads.

    There is a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is placed at the right end of the address bar.

  • How to restore the refresh/stop button?

    I have my perfectly configured browser buttons I would like it. I don't need someone to another deletion or moving them where they feel they are in a better place.

    How to restore the refresh/stop button? Yes, I update it in the address bar. I want it on the left, next to the button at home where he has been for 10 years.

    Chrome allows me to set the button where I want. The latest version of Firefox did too.

    Thank you. It works almost, installation of two plugins to restore my settings to normal. Unfortunately, my understanding of button is:

    Back/Forward. Home page | Refresh/Stop

    and has been for a long time. I can't move the previous/next buttons. If my muscle memory is defined, and every time I hit the back button, I have to stop and think that it is now.

    It's the same thing that I don't like IE.

    Consider me a convert to Chrome, guys. Now I have to remember to click on the eye of the Rainbow and not the orange Fox - but at least I only will once per day.

    One of the developers has been around the forum recently try to answer some of these questions then I quote the developer

    For the entire quote and useful links for corrections and explanations please see

    Each setting you see in a computer program you use requires work; when a developer wants to build something new or improve something, he or she has to go through each related (hidden) setting and test if it still works like before and do that on each platform Firefox runs on. That's Apple's Mac OSX, various flavours of Linux and various flavours of Windows, including Windows XP. This costs time, lots of it, and that amount grows exponentially with each setting that's added. This comes on top of our work to continuously fix, improve and innovate Firefox.
