How to do a boolean flag to trigger structure of the event

I have two parallel loops running, and I need to use a Boolean value, that comes out to a golden door, to trigger an event in the parallel loop of event structure.  I have attached a simplified version of the loop.  Is there a way to achieve this?  I tried to use local variables, value (signaling), etc., and they did not work

  • How to trigger the value change in the structure of the event

    HII everyone, like the title, how should I trigger the value change event to display a message... Here is my connection... I want to trigger structure of the event to bring up the subvi, when the flame and the led are TRUE State... I have using the node property, but still not able to run event structure... How should I connect? Thank you very much...

    There are several ways you can do. First of all, you need to configure your sub - vi while he does everything you want when you run (in the properties of vi, top most window for example) and to make sure that it closes completely when you're done (when you click on the 'OK' button, for example).

    Spend you need an asynchronous call to the subvi. There are several ways to do so. My favorite one below. You go in the palette under 'Application control' and select a static reference VI. I like this approach because it keeps track of the way subvi for you, as long as the subvi is in the same project. Then, drag the sub - vi on the empty square which will be changes to your sub - vi icon. Then, you connect to an invoke node in the same palette under and select run VI. "Wait, that 's" set to false and the main VI will continue to function after the start of the vi of Sub. Together "Auto Ref" is the best way to go. Otherwise, you will need to follow the sub - vi reference and shut up yourself when you are finished.

  • How to use the structures of the event for long-running tasks

    I created a state machine that scans a cluster of Boolean controls in a State of 'home '. Most of the States run a Subvi or two in ~ 100 ms or less.

    However, a State run for 10 seconds.

    The code works but the user interface is limited because the controls are outside the cluster because they provide inputs to the structure of State machine case but do not cause changes in the State. In other words, I all orders cluster stacked vertically on one side of the main panel and do not have the flexibility to move the controls to the more intuitive positions on the Panel.

    My question: How can I convert this code in a structure of the event and keep this long term 'event' and prevent that the operator by clicking another button event during the execution of this event?

    Thank you

    You say you have controls outside of your main code... You should really put these inside and manipulate them in a State of your state machine is initialized. This allows you to make changes to the code easier and limits of line entering your outside loop.

    You can do different things to lock the user.

    You can disable specific controls so that they can't be clicked or edited.

    You can use the palette of the mouse to define the busy cursor and disabled again once finished, I do this a lot during treatment when my code something loads the user just clicked.

    One of my favorites is to set a Boolean value in your data that passes through you event titled structure "disable mouse." When the value is True, a mouse down event will effectively reject the event, clicking on disable. I also added an event mouse move where if the bool disable the mouse is set to True, it moves an indicator of string with the mouse by telling the user why it is disabled.

    If you want more specific suggestions, I suggest to post an excerpt of your code, or attach your screws, so that we can better help you.

  • How can I set up a structure of the event that sends text when the user presses the button "Return"?

    I'm new to programming of the Structure of the event.  I am trying a program which causes the content of a control to the string to be processed when the user presses the button back in after typing in the control of the chain.  I think (I hope!) that it is simple, I just can't understand how do.

    Basically, I would take the attached VI and change so that the user can send the value of control 'String In' to the indicator "String Out" either by pressing the 'Return' key or press the button 'send string. '

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    This example has nothing to do with the RETURN key specifically.  It fires all simply whenever the value of the control is changed.  If you click outside the text box or on another still controls the value changes and still the event is raised.  This is often the desired so if it works in your application, you good to go.

    You CAN ONLY answer a particular key if you wish.  Set your event to meet 'This VI' > key down.  Then, read the proposal Vcle on the left side of the structure of the event and compare it to the RETURN (for example).  The Boolean result of the comparison gets connected to a structure to deal with your code to run inside.  You can also wire Vcle directly to a case structure and execute different code based on which key was pressed last.

  • How to control a VI (with a while loop and a structure of the event) from an another VI

    Hello

    I have the main VI which I want to be driven from an another VI. But I can't do that and I don't know what is happening.

    For example: VI main, I have a while loop with a structure of the event, there is a Boolean controller controlling a Boolean LED, which is inside the structure of the event. And the other VI, there is just a Boolean controller and functions of applications to open the main VI.

    How can I control the Boolean LED in VI main, changing the State of the Boolean controller in an another VI?

    Thank you.

    There are different options, but depending on what you want to do. For this example I can't give you a specific solution.

    I do not understand why you do what you do. Why do you call your 'principle VI' dynamically? What is the advantage to do? There are also other ways to call a VI dynamically, based on real cases (for example the method "call and forget", etc...).

    In you principle VI, control you Boolean ("THATCHER") is not the case of corresponding event. This is not usually a good practice, keep it inside.

    Also, why you try to communicate with the caller and callee VI through such a way to twist? There are better ways to do it.

    In one of my projects, I use the user event to launch orders in case of case of appellant VI.

  • How do I step manually in code that uses a structure of the event, when I want to select a particular event?

    I use an architecture of producer/consumer for an application with a structure of the event in the upper loop. Events are triggered by the user from the control panel using Boolean switches that are "change when you press on" and "release switch. My question is how can I manually step through the code using various events? It doesn't matter what I'm still not in the same event.

    Thank you.

    You can view the code? Is what event still enter? I did have problems step by step in code that uses a structure of the event. You must be patient, but because the application is slowed down a bit and it can take a while to get into the case of the specific event depending on what events you deal. Usually, I place a breakpoint in the case I am interested and run the application as usual. Once I hit the breakpoint is when I turn on highlighting of execution.

  • How to control the structure of the event

    What I'm trying to do, it's when the condtion is true, I want that the structure of the event to excute. But the event structure wil excute not except if he's changed the puch model, any idea how?

    It is more likely that he wants the sequence of events that he has set up to run after the result once changes.  If you change the logic to check the values after each numeric change (2), you will need to learn how to check to make sure that the latest iteration was not true.  Otherwise, it will start the sequence over and over.

    Really, you have to escape completely the structure of the event.  This isn't what you want.  Your code lends itself to a great state machine.

    You'll want to ask you a few things:

    (1) I want my code to run continuously or I just want to check double-digit times? (your code is currently the second)

    (2) I want the user to be able to stop my code once the sequence begins? (it is usually a Yes)

    (3) what I want 6 Road, path 5 or the comparison to happen first?  I want all run at the same time?  Do I need one before the other? (currently, you cannot predict what will happen first).

    You will need to understand the topics are: State of the machines, the flow of data, structures, business, calendar, and race conditions.  Now, you need to get you into trouble.

  • How to manage the structure of the event with two loops

    super_saiyans wrote:

    the problem with moving it is that I don't have control of the DATA RECORD STARTING?

    Of course, you do.  When you get your press conference button, you say your state machine to move to the State of logging.  You must also make sure that you return to visit the State to wait for the event to check out the events of the stop button.

  • How to stop the While loop in the Structure of the event with the same button?

    Hello

    I have a problem. I want to use a single control to activate an event in a structure of the event and the same control to end a while loop in this case.

    It is possible to use 2 controls to do this, but I need to be alone.

    Thank you

    You should NEVER place while loops inside the case of the event, and it is never necessary to do. Think about it: all you have to do is spin the code. You can easily use the outside while loop for everything. Simply place the code of the loop internal (without the inner loop) inside the case of delay and manipulate the time-out period between a pending finished and the infinite (-1), depending on the State of the Boolean value.

  • vision: how to use the structure of the event to the output of the voting structure.

    Hello.

    I make a program of video detection with vision. I use 'County IMAQ objects' to detect people moving and identify if a people enters or leaves through the demarcated areas (Centre and right to left). If someone is detected, the program returns Boolean according to areas.
    periodically, this function repeats and check the image.
    To do my easyier to work, I would rather use the programming event, which would allow me to check the values of the three areas only when one of them evolves.
    problem, the structure of the event only works with orders and property nodes 'value (sign)' and even if I use the "value (sign)" the structure of the event considers the value change even if the terms of the election returns the same value without changing

    is there another way to adapt to a structure of a Boolean result or a County IMAQ function objects event when the beginning of the program made the election?


  • a few seconds "turn on", how can make I make in the structure of the event

    Hi, friends of LabVIEW

    I want to leave user click and hold down a button for a few seconds to turn on a device. Using registry item and history of shift I can make it work. I wonder how to implement it with case and structured event. Which case should I choose? mouse up?

    I have attached the test code as well.

    Thank you.

    I'm sure there are a lot of possible solutions, but here's a way to do it with a structure of the event. Mechanical action of the button is "Switch release." Pressing the button disables the output and sets the timeout of the event at certain time structure. The timeout event switches the output to true. Any other event resets the timeout to-1 value. Unfortunately, it seems that the tool gets messed up the image, so the VI is thus established.

  • Programmatically trigger a structure of the event with the value (signaling) is not responding

    Hey, in my attached program I check if the two steps of translation are in a specific position. If Yes, I want my code to execute a sequence of movements. If this isn't the case, I'm asking the user if he wants contributed from this position anyway. It has three options: Yes, go to load (the specific position) and cancel. If he hits Yes, I am using a property of signal value which should update the controls Boolean true, allowing the sequence. Cancellation and work "to load" perfectly fine, but 'Yes' does not work. I think I need a structure of the event to ahndle the value of the Boolean control 'x' change event, however, the addition of this structure of the event for some reason any even do not allow me to click on the Start button of the procedure.
    Thanks for any help in advance.

    Really, you should look into using a State Machine.  You should have really not what happens inside a structure of the event.

    In addition, I would like to use a shift register to store this value instead of a front panel control.

    If you want to use a structure of the event, you must react on the digital inputs, for example as follows:

    Notice that the VI is inactive unless a change control (x, y, stop), date on which Boolean values are updated, comparison made, his played if necessary, and VI stopped if you press stop.
