User dialogue box freezes

[pauldesign@live.co.za]

Hi

I trying to create a VI that will display a screen message when the logic output is 1(High).

I used the 'display message to the user' function but it only work if i maually connect a swicth to the enable pin and it hangs after the message is displayed. I click ok, cancel but nothing happens except to reboot the pc. Can somebody help me with teh right VI function or whta i'm doing wrong. I was hoping that if the output i'm monitoring change logic state to high it should manually enable the function and pops up the message.

Rgds

Are you saying the popup does not appear or that the popup will not go away and this the 'hang' you mention? If the logic condition stays high, then obviously the popup will keep appearing after you click the okay button. You would need to OR your logic condition with something like a shift register that sets the popup condition low after the first time.
