How to access only boolean control value that is part of a cluster of controls

[NewUser2007]

I have created a set of boolean controls in a cluster.

Is there a way to access only one of the boolean control (i.e. "stop" button) so that I can change its states in the program, indepent of the rest of the boolean controls in the same cluster?

Thanks!

Make sure all your elements have names, then use bundle by name and wire the entire cluster to the top-center terminal.

Select your stop boolean by name and wire the new value into it. The output will be the cluster wire with only the stop value changed.

Check the online help for details. 🙂

Thanks for your help.  I am still not clear quite clear about a few things:

-once I unbundle the boolean clusters and selected the stop boolean, how can I "wire a new value" to it (since it was created as a boolean control).  I try the pop-up menu on the item, but it did not give me the option to change to write.  Can someone explain?

Thanks!

I never said anything about "unbundle"! There is a 180° difference between "unbundle" and "bundle". 🙂 You only need to unbundle if you want to know the current value, this is not needed if you want to write a new value regardless of what the current value is.
