@ dkfire: no...no... I wasn't going to post the code... At least not right away. It was in the same line as you. I wanted to explain why some part could be removed.. Nice Rube Goldberg simplification. LOL!
@Bombbooo: basically, yes. There are two things to learn from this experience. One is how to design and write code. The other is how to share information. If you want to succeed, the latter is very important, because if the information how how could should be developed is not clear in all it's fine details, you may very well write code that is not solving the request. Sometimes a high level description is not sufficient.
For instance, I can ask for a software that turns my monitor screen blue..
What does that mean? The outer shell of the monitor? The image? If it's the image, is it for the entire screen? Just for the application? And what shade of blue? What condition will cause it to turn blue? Should it revert back? If so how / why / when? .... and the list goes on... Writing software is easy... Writing the right software is not as trivial... Selecting the appropriate architecture becomes a skill..

@Ray.R: I was actually afraid that this thread could become a 100 post thread with speed we went ahead, and the many things that needed to be changed.
@Bombbooo:
So how fare are you now ?
Have you used my code or are you continuing with your own ?

Your code looks crazily simpler than my code. How could you figure it out like that? I really want to be like you 🙂

You can learn a lot within this forum. Ideally, taking courses from NI is the best approach.
To learn more about LabVIEW, I suggest you try looking at some of these tutorials.

Hi I got another problem again :(. I hope it isn't too much to ask you. I already created the subVI for the unit conversion by using your code. I tried to connect ti with my main VI but it didn't work. I don't know how to define the output of the subVI because there is only local variable.

Hi Bombbooo,
do you read any of the tutorials? Did you read any of them ever? Has nobody told you to read tutorials?
- You still don't understand DATAFLOW.
- You still don't get the concepts of inputs and outputs of a VI.
- You still don't read the help for event structures - the DO's and DONT's...
Edit: Will we reach the magic "100"?

we're more than 1/2 way there 😄

You need to start by going through the tutorials. Learning to program does not happen by osmosis..
