How do I select next state based on abort/completion of countdown timer

[dannyjhu]

I use a simple countdown timer to delay and indicate when the next step will happen.  I would like to add an abort option to the timer. My problem comes in that if the user aborts the step, I would like the VI to jump to a specific step and not progress to the next step as would happen if hte timer ran to completion. Using hightlight exe, it looks like I can't use the stop button set to "switch until released" but I'm not sure how to fix the problem.  Is there a easy way to fix the problem?

Thank you for the help

All you have to do is wire out your stop button instead of using a local variable.

Thanks for the help aeastet.  That works great.  One question though about your solution, what are the reference functions for that you included in the VI and how would they work in this case?

Thanks again for the help.

It must be something from the snippet. I am not sure what happend there. Ignore the reference.
