Thank you all for the help, however me and some other members are not able to see any of your responses.

Maybe it is my browser. 

Thanks,

Some of us can't read your initial question, however, I appreciate the kudo and Accepted Solution!

You can pass the reference through the control panels the same way you'd send any data to a SubVI.  Does this help?

Thank you Jim

I understand the method.

Can you tel me what type of reference should I use.

Occurrence ref Num

Control ref Num 

VI ref Num Etc...

There is no specific reference for Notifier.

Appreciate your help,

Right-click on any reference wire (for example, the output of Obtain Notifier) and choose "Create Control."  Then you can copy that control to your subVI's front panel.  You can reuse that reference to a notifier anywhere, and change the type of data carried by that notifier reference by dragging another data type (a numeric, a cluster, etc) into the control reference on the front panel.

One way to find out what kind of reference to use is to cheat a bit;

1. Create a control
2. Create a reference to that control
3. Create a control from that reference
4. Follow the clicks to the VI Server Class

That's what I did to get this:

PS - that's a Boeing 787.

Thank u all for the help. I was able successfully sending a Notifier reference by passing it as a parameter to a SUB VI, and then use it in a Sub VI for the Wait on notification function. ( it Works). However, the method of copying the Notifier reference from the sending VI, and pasting the Notify reference to a receiving VI did not work. (It looks that the reference is not valid).

I may be doing something wrong?
