Force quit DAQmx task?

Hi All,

 

I am new to Labview so please forgive these potentially stupid questions.

 

I put together a VI that receives external trigger from one of the PFI lines and gather a user-defined amount of pretrigger samples. The program has to rearm after saving the TDMS file, and listening for the next trigger. This above part seems to work now. But I am not able to figure out a way so that I can stop the program by hitting the "stop" button, instead of using the "Abort Execution" button on the tool bar.

 

I have attached my code here. Do I need to change the whole structure to something else to enable this functionality? Also I feel using the Case structure to check whether to increment and go to the next file is stupid, but if I don't do this the loop sometimes will keep running and increment that trial number crazily - which I thought would not happen if the DAQmx Wait Until Done.vi should halt the while loop in the middle.

 

Thanks very much!!

Hello Boto,

 

Just so it's clear: You are no longer using this thread, and have created a new one, which you have asked this question as well as the one about another issue with this VI, is that correct?

Hi Mattew,

 

Yes I have asked the same question in addition to a new question on the same program in this other post.

 

Thanks for checking!
