Possible to programmatically run an event structure?

jvon20 — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 23:56:01 GMT

Is it possible to programmatically force a particular event of an event structure to execute without any front panel control actually changing from the user?

For example, If the front panel has a button which upon change of state commands an event structure to send a message to some other hardware, but the message does not get received for some reason, can I tell the "send message" event to run again programmatically somehow? It seems that making a local variable for the "send" control and writing to it does not work...?

You can write to a signaling value "Value(sgnl)" property of the control

(Be aware that the value change event will fire even if the old and new value is the same. Are you sure that there isn't a better solution to whatever you a trying to do. Seems unusual)

This is how to do it in LabVIEW, but is it valid for G Web? I cannot see how to do this...
