How to make in a program periodically switched relay.

I have a FP-1000(rs 232 controlled) with FP-DO-400 module.
I need to switch it on(off) periodically. Something like switching it on every 30 seconds for 1 second.
I just do not know how to make using LabView 7.0. I can control it switching manually but I'd like to make it automatically. Can someone give a couple of hints how to do it?
Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for posting your question on the NI forem.

I have attached an example to make switching a simple boolean led on every 10 seconds for 1 "Minute"

Essentially you would need a while loop, ever 10 sec the virtual led lights up in front panel the select vi resets the shift register every 10 sec and the loop exist after 60 sec (minute)

Hope this helps!

Thanks,
Kurt App.Eng.

Thanks, Kurt AE
I already solved the problem.
But any way I would like to take a look at your VI and I just can't. Could you please save just an image of your VI or save it in the way that I could open it with my LabView7.0.
By the way there is my version

My example is rather simplistic.
Hopefully this atachment will open in version 7.0

Thanks,
