How to create a control with two terminals?

Hi there!

I need to create a control that has got two terminals in the diagram window. The terminals must not be connected to each other by wire but both must respond to the control instruction the same way. Is that possible to be done?

Thanks
Tiano

You might want to look at the local variable. It allows a second access
to the control's data. It is useful for initializing controls, reading
a Boolean from two loops, etc.

At that time, as Greg already answered your question,
I still built the attached example.......

Hi Wha!

Unfortunately I have labview version 6.0 installed on my PC. The example you sent to me was in labview version 6.1. Can you please send it in the proper format or maybe the picture of the front panel and the block diagram?

Thanks in advance
Tiano
