Interrupt program execution to get data and resume execution

[Arroyo]

Hi everybody,

Does somebody know how can I interrupt the execution of my program (main VI and all sub-VIs), display a dialog box, collect a given datum from the user, and resume execution?

Best regards,

Esteban

Hi Arroyo,

you need to program a feature usually known as "PAUSE".

When I think about a "PAUSE" feature the words "state machine" come to my mind…

On the other hand, dialogs in LabVIEW are inherently blocking anyway. What exactly are you trying to accomplish, and how much do you know about LabVIEW? Sounds like you might want to go through some of the online tutorials.
