MASTER/SLAVE PATTERN: how to stop slave loop without stop main loop

[Mark_Yedinak]

Don't use a timeout on your dequeue. Only execute when you actually have something to work on.

The case structure connected with Dequeue has no "time out", could you tell me where can I change to solve the problem in the vi file I uploaded? Thank you very much!

See below where you are setting the dequeue timeout.

Hi Mark_Yedinak, I followed your advise and make this vi work. Thank you very much! But I got another problem. As you know, the uploaded program is a simplified one, and the real program has very complicated main loop. Now in my program, when I click the boolean buttin in the main loop (like "start/stop 3" button in my uploaded program), it cannot change the status and is kept in "False" state. Could you advise what is the possible cause for this kind of situation? Thank you very much!

[Mark_Yedinak]

Without seeing the code I couldn't really give you any advise.

 i would send a notifier to your sub vi....
