Display Multiple DMM measurements

[Joesph]

Trial by fire. New to Labview. Soon will be new to Test Stand. I'm making measurements manually, thru Agilent 34932/ 34980 & one set of test probes, until I complete wiring the switch matrix, complete fixture build and stitch VIs together in Test Stand. Right now I'm trying to figure out how to do a simple loop/VI that will allow me to manully place my probe on the correct net, click on the front panel/interface, display the reading as the first element in a 1D array and loop for ten more iterations filling the array on the front panel before ending. "Older" programmer that's been out of the game for a while. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Joseph,

If I read your post correctly, you are asking how you can display the current reading of your probes with a click, and store that data in an array. I assume that you are able to read the data once with the code you currently have.

There is a template in LabVIEW if you go to File>>New... then VI>>From Template>>Frameworks>>Design Patterns>>User Interface Event Handler that is set up to initate code every time you click a button. In my example attached, I added a little bit of coding so that each click sends data to an array. You just have to substitute your AG34980A VIs for the random number generator. One note about that: you can have your initialize and close VIs outside of the loop on either side, since you only need to run those functions once.
