Latching a Button to a Case Structure

[GerdW]

Hi rvkamat,

BTW I found the solution.

That's not a solution, it's a quirky work-around…

Its apparently easier to automate scripts when you have an event structure.

From your description I guess it would be much easier to use a proper state machine. One state machine handling several "recipes". No event structures involved, atleast not for handling the recipe.

When this is your thesis you should also write a chapter on proper programming schemes…

Are you related to (or the same as) user rkamat?

Haha, Yes GerdW, I have 2 User Profiles.

I know this isn't "proper programming" but I am still learning. I have just been working with Labview this past month and I am sure I'll figure out these things on my own. I am sure you've had a boss who told you how he liked things and you "gladly" obliged.

Thanks for your help again!

Hi GerdW,

Now that you mentioned it, I am using a State Machine. I have attached a pic, is this what you mean

Hi rkamat,

yes, those are state machines. You should prefer the Enum solution using a type-defined enum!
