Name of block marked in Image

[Abdullah001]

Hi, I have marked block (4 blocks but I believe they are same) in the attached image. What is the name of the block? (I tried to search it but couldn't it in palettes).

These are local variables.

Right-click on the terminal or control/Indicator >> Create >> Local variable

Thanks!

A couple of those Locals can be removed, writing to both the Indicator and the Local variable of the same is just code duplication (and shows someone lacks some LV knowledge).

Hi,

all of those marked locals can be deleted once you use shift registers…

Well, you don't even need shift registers to wire to/from those NetworkStream functions…

Whenever I see posts in which the poster refers to nodes, VIs, and subVIs as "blocks", it leads me to mention that they should take advantage of the LabVIEW tutorials on the main page of the LabVIEW forum.

(Similarly, if you call the steering wheel of a car the "round thing in front of me", you should probably sign up for some driver ed classes before attempting to drive the car.)

And would likely get more of the desired results without the locals or shift registers. This thing is screaming race condition.
