Hello,
I am trying to generate a digital signal which can be controlled in terms time i.e. Switching ON for 10 minis off for 5 minutes. I tried to generate a digital signal which is going high but unable to control it. As I am the beginner in labview any kind of help is appreciated.
Please see the attachment for the developed block diagram

It appears that all you posted is one of the shipping examples. Is that all you've tried? You can't control it because you're not actually doing anything inside the loop. You're simply setting the value high before the loop starts, and not changing it in the loop. What kind of device do you have? Is it software controlled? If so, you will need to keep track of the time inside the loop. You can use the Elapsed Time VI to do this. Attached is a simple example to get you started to see how this can be done. I'm sure you can figure out how to integrate what you did and what I've shown you.
To learn more about LabVIEW it is recommended that you go through the introduction material, tutorial(s), and other material in the NI Developer Zone's Learning Center which provides links to other materials and other tutorials. You can also take the online courses for free.
