DAQ assistant is not recording data when case structure is false

Ah.  The simple fix is to wire a TRUE to the AutoReset input on the Elapsed Time.  Sorry, I missed that.

Sorry, it is already taken.

Having problem again.  I am setting on-time and off-time value as 900sec (15 min). But, after the experiment it seems that it remains on/off 2-3 mins longer. Do you have any solution to this problem? Thanks.

Post your latest VI.

[tousif54]

There you go.

[RavensFan]

I can't see any reason in your code why it would run 2-3 minutes longer.

How are you measuring this?  Is it just that the VI does not end once the On/Off sequence is done?

[tousif54]

Nope. The progam is running for one and half hours. So, 3 on-off sequences (each on - 15 min and each off- 15 min). And it seems each on and off sequence taking longer that 15 min from the beginning.

The code you attached should give you 15 minute intervals as long as you enter 900 into both controls.  I can't see why it wouldn't.

You'll need to put some features in your code to log exactly when the changes occur.  "It seems" is not quite as definitive as "I know".

If you use shorter times such as 5 minutes, does it "seem" to take 1 minute longer than it should?
