Cluster of VI Server References

[DanB1983]

Hi,

See the attached screenshot.  I want to put everything in the outer sequence structure perimeter into a subVI.

That is to say that I want to pass the enum "System Comms Method" and cluster "Modules to test", along with the cluster of all the VI Server References.

My question is, how do I create a cluster control containing all the VI Server References, to go on the front panel of the subVI?

Thanks,

Dan

Right click on a wire that has the data structure set up like you want (i.e. the pink wire after you bundle the references together) and select Create Control.

Just selecting the seq structure and selecting edit >>> Create sub-VI will create the controls and wire the sub-vi.

Regardless of if you are going to to Ravens Fan's approach mine or another, it is a good idea to save the resulting control as a type def so latter changes are applied to all instances. This Nugget on Type defs can help if you are not falimiar with type-defs.
