Hi I have a vi, and in the

user interface, i have a cluster of indicators. These indicators should display values form a daq board, however, i can't seem to get it right, when i wire it, i get errors. I tried to use the unbundle, and bundle functions, but i still can't get it right.
Please advise thanks.

If you have a cluster containing 3 elements first check the cluster order by right clicking on it, then put a bundle function with 3 inputs and bundle the elements in that order.
Hope this helps

Now, from the back panel (code window) right click on the output terminal of the vi where it is supposed to be wired to the cluster of indicators, select Create->Indicator. Now you have a new indicator which displays all fields from the output of the vi. Then you work from there, either modify the new cluster of indicator or justify your old cluster of indicator.
Hope this helps.

Nam.

Then you can either insert a probe, or use the context help menu to tell you about what kind of elements are in the cluster.

-- Break the wire to the indicator cluster, making sure there's still a bad wire piece on the source of the data.

-- Convert the indicator cluster to a control cluster (so it'll be a data source temporarily).

-- Wire from this control into a dead-end (double-click the wire into open space - makes a bad wire).

-- Turn on the HELP window, and point at the bad wires with the wiring tool. The HELP window describes the structure of the data on the wire I'm pointing to.

-- Say "Aha!" while slapping my forehead loudly.

-- Change the control back to indicator, and fix either it, or the data source as appropriate.

-- This is useful if you've done a lot of front panel arranging to make it pretty and you don't want
to live with the CREATE INDICATOR results.
